Rather than working as a solitary practitioner, many people will seek a community of like-minded individuals on the basis that their powers are thus enhanced. The method of group working is given here, although it is very easy to adjust this for work on an individual basis. The rituals used for
The group represents a cooperative act of worship,
which widens the scope of the ceremony to
encompass larger objectives than just the
personal; we can then consider our joint
responsibility for the world in which we live, and a more universal perspective.
At the same time, through working in a
group, a more focused atmosphere can be
created – a raising of consciousness so that each
the participant receives wisdom and energy commensurate with their needs and understanding. True initiation into the mysteries of magic, for instance, is a private silent process, but an initiation ceremony
accompanied by ritual can be seen as a more formal process for marking unmistakable long-term changes in the consciousness of the
practitioner.
The purpose of rituals used in this way is to
create an inspiring and expressive atmosphere
in which to give life and meaning to the connection between the ordinary and the color. Symbolism takes on a meaningful existence and through color, sound,
movement, and imagination, becomes a vibrant language of the soul. Rituals help us do
several things:
1. To learn the proper application of a basic
structure for personal use and to understand
the relevance of ritual.
2. To increase an understanding of the flow of
the energy that we experience and to develop confidence in the use of symbols.
3. To contribute to the group’s awareness of
members thus helping them make the best use of their individual and group powers.
4. To create spiritual and emotional conditions
where initiation on an inner level is accepted
and experience, and where we can accept heightened states of awareness as the norm.
5. To use knowledge of ritual and power as a
way of achieving personal spiritual health, so
that the rituals themselves eventually become
unnecessary and are recognized simply as a
way of gaining access to the ultimate. They may then be replaced by direct experience.
By using the same rituals for both individual
and group work, these are seen as
complementary, and members of the group can enhance their experience on both a personal and shared level. Practitioners can
take the insights gained from group work into
the personal sacred space and come into
contact with an awareness of a new level of
activity and vice versa. A magical ritual is far
superior if it succeeds without side effects and therefore can be shocking if there are untoward
results. Traditional forms of magical ritual –
often first taught in a group situation – tap a basic and, if misunderstood, possibly dangerous force, which has to be channeled and directed properly. Group work can form a training arena that is also protected, to enable
the fledgling magician to learn the craft.
