Bioelectric Technology and the Black Arts of Hypnotism

Each of us has an electro-magnetic field around our bodies. This is what we know as the aura. Our thoughts and the activity of our brain form a circuit within that aura. Since thoughts and brain activity are electrical impulses, they can be decoded and read. The world powers are well aware of this and with advanced computer technology, are able to decipher a person's thoughts, where they can be received by a special device and the out put is much like when satellite signals are formed into a picture on our TV sets. There are also microchips that can be used as implants along certain neural pathways to send electrical impulses to the brain, stimulating certain thoughts, feelings, beliefs or implanting certain memories. Although this technology has a way to go, there are now actual thought reading machines, which, like everything else in time, will be perfected. A device is placed upon a subject’s skin at certain points that reads the bioelectrical output and decodes these impulses to where they can easily be read with a special computer. During the 1970's the world powers acquired major advances and breakthroughs in mind control technology. Hypnosis has many positive applications, such as healing or breaking certain habits. Most "professional" hypnotists agree that when under a hypnotic trance, the subject will never act against his/her own will or perform acts contrary to his/her own nature. This, in reality is false. A trained and confident operator can impel a subject to do anything he/she commands him/her to do, unless there is an extremely powerful aversion within the subject, or if the will of the subject is exceptionally strong. 20% of the population are perfect subjects for hypnosis. Above average intelligence, the existence of an imaginary playmate in childhood, a strong tendency to daydreaming and fantasy, and the will to comply make one a desirable candidate. In the black arts of hypnotism, the hypnotist and subject form a master/slave relationship. The subject must be isolated from friends and family and spend much time alone with the operator, where a rapport is established, as in government experiments or sometimes as one does with a cellmate in prison. An emotional rapport is very important in establishing trust and obedience. The operator must come across as a good listener and show supposed genuine interest in the subject. The subject is made to feel comfortable around the operator and can be open with him/her. The initial hypnotic induction is the most important, as it breaks through into the subject's mind and opens a door to the hypnotist. When in the alpha state, the logical mind is inactive, and one is open to all suggestions. The operator gives the subject the suggestion that he/she will become deeply hypnotized again whenever the operator gives the induction cue. This can be in words or a signal. Each session induces a deeper hypnotic state where the subject slips under the complete control of the operator. With deeper trances, the subject becomes more and more powerless against the operator. Artificial amnesia (also known as a "mind wipe") is induced by the operator suggesting to the subject that he/she will not have any conscious knowledge of the session. Further important suggestions include that the subject will not in any way be able to be hypnotized by anyone else and that he/she will act in a trance, just as if awake. Once the subject is easily hypnotized by the operator, the mind and personality can then be conditioned. Childhood playmates are often extensions of one's personality, especially in those who are of weaker character and would not fight back personally or defend themselves. The imaginary playmate can fight back and get angry, where as the child cannot. Often, there is an abusive parent, to whom the angry thoughts and actions of the playmate are directed against. During the initial conditioning phase of the session, the operator regresses the subject into childhood. Regression plays a very important part in establishing control over the subject. An operator who works for the government as in producing spies, will look for the most aggressive of the imaginary friends, in attempting to artificially split the personality. The most aggressive aspects of the personality are the ideal in destroying all inhibitions. Artificial splitting of the personality occurs where the imaginary playmate is brought out in the subject and the subject becomes the playmate on cue. The playmate usually emerges through one of the subject's chakras. The operator informs the subject that "playmate's name" will come through subject's stomach, third eye, throat, etc. The subject is further told again that he/she will not remember anything of the session or the emerging personality. In actual cases, the emerging stronger personality is conditioned through programming and suggestion to be hostile to the root personality of the subject. This aggressive personality in nearly all cases is stronger and can take more abuse. The world powers use the subject as robotic spies. Extensive programming is instilled in the aggressive personality, so that they will never divulge certain information, even under torture. The root personality, who is amnesiac of the entire experience, is often the one who endures systematic torture, with no memory or recall of the information the interrogator is attempting to force them to reveal. Through repeated sessions the personality is brought out more and more and becomes much stronger, completely splitting off of the root. The subject, due to being programmed not to remember, has no knowledge, only gaps in time and missing pieces in the memory. Much time slips by unnoticed and is unaccounted for. Further conditioning sessions, while under, include talking the subject through an experience completely abhorrent to their nature, where the subject is made in his/her mind to do something he/she would never consciously do. The subject actually experiences what the operator says. Through repeated sessions, all inhibitions are overcome and the personality is shaped into whatever the operator wishes. This is where the subject, for example, can murder ANYONE without hesitation or do anything else the operator commands. Like anything else, repeated programming is instilled and maintained in subsequent sessions. Barbiturates can be injected into a stubborn subject that will render his/her mind open to whatever suggestions the operator wishes to instill. This is known as "Military Psychology." People who use recreational drugs are extremely easy to control, either psychically, as a skilled mage would do, or in an actual clinical setting. Drug use also puts holes in the protective aura that can easily be manipulated by an adept. Electric Shock Treatment works to destroy memories and can be used to wipe the mind clean by agencies within the world powers. The mind is then reprogrammed, beliefs, ideas, thinking patterns, and habits are instilled, usually through trance induction by drugs, until the new personality takes hold and the drugs are no longer needed. This is known as "brainwashing" and can be done for all purposes. Most people are unaware of what can be done to their minds by those who have more knowledge and control. Self-hypnosis is useful in where we, ourselves, program our own minds. We can program our minds to be resistant to all unwanted influences. In addition, others will not be able to influence our minds or establish control over us in any way.

Satanic Hypnosis

Satanic Hypnosis is a form of self-hypnosis that is extremely effective. With standard self-hypnosis, one enters into a trance and makes repeated affirmations to modify behavior. With Satanic hypnosis, one breathes in the energy of a specific color that corresponds to the desired goal. The results are much more extensive and powerful than just plain self-hypnosis. With Satanic hypnosis, we work with our aura. Here is an example of Satanic hypnosis: Say you want to attract money: Breathe in as you would for the Energy Meditation; from all sides of your body at the same time, the color green. A bright, rich vibrant green. This should be done while in as deep as a trance as possible. While breathing in the green and brightening your aura with it affirm: "I am breathing in powerful energy that is attracting me a lot of free and easy money in a very positive way. This money is free and all mine to keep." Say this several times with intent while you breathe in the green. The green is the color of Venus and the heart chakra which rule money. It really works, but has to be done every several days to keep the money coming. Afterwards, breathe in vibrant white light to balance your aura for several breaths. Say you want to lose weight: You would want to use sky blue to speed up your metabolism and affirm: "I am breathing in blue energy that is speeding up my metabolism in a healthy way and causing me to lose excess body fat." You have to repeat this several times anywhere from 5-10 and continue breathing in the blue energy. This will have to be done daily until you see results and repeated whenever necessary. Always make sure you say "in a positive" or "in a healthy" way. Mind workings always take the easiest route and you don't want to get thin through disease or obtain money through the insurance claim form the loss of a loved one. Be sure to cover all your bases when working with your mind.

Hypnotizing Others

It is important to read all of the articles in the hypnosis section so you know what you are doing before hypnotizing another person. In order to effectively hypnotize another person, that person must be completely and deeply relaxed. The person should be sitting comfortably in a reclined position. When lying down, the subject is likely to fall asleep. You must stay calm and in control at all times. Begin by talking the subject through total body relaxation. Start at the feet, have the subject tense them up and relax them; then the ankles, the calves, knees and so on, working your way to the subjects face and head. When the subject is fully relaxed, tell him/her to remember a happy event that took place in their past. Ask him/her questions about it, where it took place, who was there, how he/she felt, what was in the room or area the event took place and so forth. This is done to activate the intuitive right side of the subject’s brain and the subconscious mind of memory. When you are finished with the above, tell the subject you are going to count backwards. With each number, he/she will become more and more relaxed: “Ten; you are becoming more and more relaxed than before.” “Nine; you are drifting down deeper and deeper into total relaxation” “Eight; your body is totally relaxed; you can barely feel your body. “Seven; you are completely relaxed and feel very peaceful” “Six; with each breath, you are relaxing more and more with each exhalation.” “Five; we are going all the way down into the deepest level of relaxation.” “Four; relax… three, two, one You want to determine the depth of the trance at this stage. If the subject is new to hypnosis, more sessions are usually needed before he/she is able to enter a deep trance. To deepen the trance: “Ten; you are becoming even more and more relaxed than before.” “Nine; you are descending and drifting down deeper and deeper” “Eight; your body is totally and completely relaxed “Seven; with each breath, you are relaxing more and more with each exhalation.” “Six; we are going down further and further into a deeper and deeper level of relaxation.” “Five, four; relax…three, two, one." Again, you want to determine the depth of the trance at this stage. If the subject is new to hypnosis, more sessions are usually needed before he/she is able to enter a deep trance. Repeat the steps directly above this paragraph if the subject is still not at the desired level of trance. Here is where you will program the subject’s mind. Make short to the point statements that deal with a specific area or problem. Only work on one problem per session and make sure the problem is resolved before moving onto another. Make all statements to be in the present tense. "Will" never comes and the mind does not understand the future tense. For past life regression: Put the subject into a deep trance and say: “I am going to count backward from 10-1.” "With each number, you will enter a deeper and deeper state of relaxation." “When I reach one, you will be standing in front of a door.” Slowly count backwards. “You are standing in front of a closed door. I am going to count backwards from ten to one and when I reach one, I want you to turn the knob and open the door." “....3, 2, 1." Now ask the subject if he/she opened the door. If not, he/she is not deep enough into the trance for this session to be effective. Either put him/her further under or bring him/her out of the trance and end the session. If he/she opened the door, then say: "I now want you to walk through the door. You are now in a previous life.” “Look around you, what do you see?” “What is the current date” “Who are you?” Continue talking him/her through the experience When you are ready to bring the person out- “I am going to count from one to five.” “At the count of five, you will open your eyes, be wide awake, alert and feeling fine.” “1…2…3…4…5” "Open your eyes." If you wish to do a mind wipe, where the subject will not remember anything from the session, be sure to tell them at the end of the session “When you awaken, you will remember nothing of this session.” “Your last memory will be coming through the door.” (Whatever happened before the session). With professional hypnosis, a mind wipe is often necessary of the subject experiences trauma during a regression. Examples: Attracting wealth- “You are attracting more and more money.” “Your life is filled with wealth and you have everything you want.” (Similar statements for money) For Healing: Have the subject to visualize a bright ball of light like the Sun. Tell him/her to visualize this light on the afflicted body part. "The light is healing energy, that is healing your______________. Say to the subject: “Visualize a ball of bright light, like the Sun. Do you see the ball of light?" The subject should answer, “Yes.” “I want you to place the ball of light on your (name of body part).” “Completely surround (name of body part) with the ball of light, feel the warm energy healing your_____.” “The light is full of healing energy that is healing your (name of body part).” “Your ______is becoming normal and healthy” Keep talking the subject through this healing process. This may have to be done several times, especially if the problem is chronic. Hypnosis is useful in many areas. It can be used to strengthen concentration, improve intelligence and memory, rid one's self of phobias, and bad habits, establishing good habits and so on.

Self Hypnosis

For self-hypnosis, you need to get yourself into a deep trance. The following is an excerpt from "A Treatise on Astral Projection" by Robert Bruce: "How To Enter A Trance" Relax and calm your mind through breath awareness. Imagine you are climbing down a ladder in the dark. Don’t visualize a ladder; just imagine you can feel yourself doing it. On the exhale, feel yourself climbing a step or two down the ladder. On the inhale, feel yourself holding still on the ladder. What is needed is a mental falling effect inside your mind. This changes the level of brain wave activity from the awake level (Beta) to the asleep level (Alpha) or the deep sleep level (Theta). Once your level of brain wave activity reaches Alpha you will enter a trance. Keep doing this for as long as it takes. The time it takes to enter trance will vary, depending on your experience with deep relaxation and mental calmness. Note: Once you get the heavy feeling, stop the mental falling exercise. If you don’t like the ladder, imagine you are in a lift [elevator], feel yourself falling on the exhale and holding on the inhale, or, Imagine you are a feather, feel yourself floating down on the exhale and holding still on the inhale. As I stated above, you need a mental falling effect to lower your level of brain wave activity. This mental falling effect, when combined with deep relaxation and mental calmness, will cause you to enter the trance state. Feel free to use any scenario you are familiar with to bring about this going deeper feeling. A trance feels like: Everything gets quieter and you feel like you are in a much bigger place. There is a very slight humming feeling in your body. Everything feels different. It feels a bit like putting a cardboard box over your head in the dark, you can feel the atmosphere change. It’s like everything goes fuzzy or slightly blurred. Any sharp noises, while in trance are painful. Deep Trance The level of trance you achieve depends greatly on your relaxation, concentration skills and will power. To enter a deeper trance, i.e., Theta level and beyond, you have to concentrate much more and for much longer, on the mental falling sensation aided by breath awareness. The first level of trance, i.e., when you get very heavy, is quite deep enough for projection. I strongly advise against forcing yourself deeper than a light trance, until you have plenty of experience with the trance state. How can you tell if you are entering a deep trance? There are four very noticeable symptoms: 1. An uncomfortable feeling of cold that doesn’t make you shiver, coupled with a steady loss of body heat. 2. Mentally, you will feel very odd and everything will feel extremely slooooow. Your thought processes will slow down as if you had been given a strong pain killing injection. 3. You will feel disassociated from your body, i.e., a strong floating sensation and everything will seem far away. 4. Total physical Paralysis. Note: These four things, ALL TOGETHER, signify you are entering a deep trance. Do not mistake the mild floating sensation you sometimes get with light trance, i.e., as you astral body comes loose. Or the slight loss of body heat from sitting still for a long time and the mild paralysis, i.e., the heaviness, for a deep trance. The sensation of deep trance is quite uncomfortable and unmistakable for what it is. It is very difficult to get into the deep trance state, as you need highly developed relaxation, concentration and trance state skills plus lots and lots of will power and mental energy. You will not accidentally fall into it. If you are worried you are going too deep, remember this: You CAN pull yourself out of it at any time. Concentrate ALL your will on moving your fingers or toes. Once you can move a finger or toe, flex your hands, move your arms, shake your head, i.e., reanimate your body; and get up and walk around for a few minutes. Falling into a deep trance should not be a problem with these exercises. Energy Body Expansion At some point after entering the trance state, you will feel a mild paralysis come over you. This will soon be accompanied by a deepening vibration and a buzzing feeling all over. You may also feel like you are huge and swollen. The paralysis, vibrations and the huge feeling are symptoms of the energy body expanding and the astral body loosening. This is part of the normal sleep process. The energy body expands and opens in order to accumulate and store energy. During this, the astral body drifts free, slightly out phase with the physical body." [End of Excerpt] Some people use a tape recorder and listen to the talking through and statements. The drawback here is when in a deep trance state, sounds can become painful and jar the nervous system. Everyone is individual and one should experiment to find the best individual methods. What works for one person may not work for another. While in this state, you can regress into a past life, by walking through a door or "portal" in your mind. The deep trance state is the time to make repeated affirmations to yourself to program your mind. Self-hypnosis is much like hypnotizing others, with the exception, you make the statements to yourself. Again, several sessions may be necessary. Bring yourself out slowly and gradually, as you would do in returning from the astral.

Determining the Depth of a Trance

Determining the depth of a trance: The light trance state: The subject is physically relaxed The subject's eyelids may flutter or twitch Sounds may become painful Light to medium trance state: The subject's limbs feel heavy The subject's breathing becomes slower and deeper Intense feeling of deep relaxation (the subject does not feel like moving, speaking or thinking) The subject feels detached from his/her surroundings Medium trance state: The subject is aware of the trance, but cannot describe it Suggestive state (For example, the operator suggests the subject has an ant on his/her arm and the subject can actually feel it crawling, even though there is nothing there or the operator suggests there is smoke in the room and the subject smells it, though there is no smoke) Catalepsy: A condition characterized by lack of response to external stimuli and by muscular rigidity, so that the limbs remain in whatever position they are placed. Deep or somnambulistic trance state: The subject can open eyes without affecting the trance Fixed stare and pupil dilation when eyes are opened. Complete amnesia Systemized post-hypnotic amnesia Uncontrolled movements of eyeballs Sensation of lightness, floating, swinging or falling The subject experiences a distortion of sound The subject can control his/her involuntary body functions- i.e., heart rate, blood pressure Recall of lost memories Age regression Visual hallucinations Auditory hallucinations Total Anesthesia Methods of testing the depth of the trance: The operator must establish the depth of the trance in order to remain in control of the session. This is done by testing the subject for their receptivity to the operator’s suggestions. The most common method used is where the operator tells the subject he/she cannot move his/her arm. Example: ”Your arm is stuck to the chair, you cannot lift it, and when I count to five, I want you to try to lift it. If you have cooperated, you will find that the harder you try to lift your arm, the more it remains stuck to the chair.” The operator then counts to five, saying after each number, “Your arm is stuck to the chair.” When five is reached, if the subject cannot move his/her arm, they are in a trance. If the subject can move his/her arm, he/she has not accepted the suggestion. The operator must start all over again and explain he/she can do nothing without the subject’s cooperation. It is always important to secure the trust of the subject. The next stage is where the operator deepens the trance and again checks to see how deep the subject has gone. The operator tells the subject he/she will stroke the back of the subject's hand and he/she will feel an increasing numbness and loss of sensation in that hand. After a few minutes of stroking, and speaking, the operator pinches the back of the subject's hand and then does the same with the back of the other hand that has not been stroked and asks the subject if he/she can feel any difference. If the subject replies that there is a difference, this stage of trance has been achieved; if not, the operator explains to the subject that further work on deepening the trance must be done. More sessions will be needed to take the subject deeper and deeper. The next stage the operator tests is an even deeper stage. If the subject has advanced to this stage, he/she will be amnesic. The operator tells the subject to imagine that he/she is standing in front of a blackboard with a piece of white chalk and instructs him/her to take the chalk and write three words on the board. "Now I want you to take the chalk and write the following three words on the blackboard: First, tree; next grass and lastly cloud. Raise your arm when you are finished writing the three words." When the subject has signaled he/she is done writing the words, the operator instructs him/her that there is an eraser on the ledge of the Blackboard and says "I want you to take the eraser and erase the words tree and grass, leaving only the word 'cloud.' As you erase the words, I want you to also erase them from your mind, so that all you can think of now is 'cloud' 'cloud.' You are going into a deeper and deeper sleep. You are in a deep, sound sleep and all you can think of is the word 'cloud.' Now, what were the three words you wrote on the blackboard?" If the subject is able to remember the three words, he/she has not yet reached the amnesic stage of trance. If not, the subject has reached this stage of deep trance. The operator should then say "When I count to three, you will then remember the three words and repeat them to me." The subject should then be able to remember the words and repeat them. In order to be able to place the subject in this stage of trance the next time the operator performs the hypnosis, he/she should tell the subject before bringing him/her back "From now on, whenever I put you into a trance, you will have reached the same depth of trance as you are in now by the time I have counted to ten." The operator then brings the subject out of the trance: "I am now going to count up to five. When I reach five, you will be wide awake and feel refreshed and fine."

About Hypnosis

We all have a right side and a left side brain. The left side of the brain is our conscious mind that we use every day to make conscious decisions and use logic. This is the active masculine side of the brain. The passive side is the right side of the brain. This is the receptive feminine side. The right side of the brain is highly suggestible and the side we access in both meditation and hypnosis. In order to access the passive right side, the active left side must be subdued. This is analogous to turning off the electricity in a home or building in order to access the wiring. If the electricity is not turned off, a shock will prevent accessing any wires. The mind works the same way. The more subdued the active left side is, the deeper the trance, the deeper the trance, the more receptive the passive right side is. In order to effectively hypnotize yourself, you must be deep in a trance. To hypnotize another person, you must put that person deep into a trance- the deeper, the better. In order to hypnotize someone, the operator must establish some sort of rapport. People who are highly suggestible, impressionable, and gullible make the best subjects. Those who are nervous, cynical, and uncomfortable with being hypnotized are difficult to work with. The CIA and other unethical professionals use barbiturates to put resistant subjects under. They use just enough so the mind will still be receptive to suggestions. If too much is used, the session will prove futile. The success of the session depends upon how set the mind is regarding the suggestions. Chronic and longstanding problems, deep seeded hang-ups, and mental blocks require many sessions to overcome. The suggestions and affirmations must be repeated and repeated to break down walls in the mind. With hypnosis, the operator is in control. The extent of this control with a professional is equal to the subject turning his/her entire life over to the operator who can command him/her to do anything. There have been numerous reports of psychiatrists putting their patients under and having sex with them. The patient was told during the session she would not remember the incident upon awakening. This is a common example. When you allow another person to hypnotize you, you are literally putting your entire life in their hands and with each session, you become more and more under that person’s control. In order to prevent any other person from hypnotizing you, you have to program your mind that you will never be hypnotized by another person. This creates a block. Hypnotists have been known to place their own blocks in the minds of their subjects. Some have placed several. The most common is the subject experiencing total amnesia concerning the session. Other blocks used by unethical hypnotists include the subject only being able to be hypnotized by the operator and no one else. These involved court cases where the operator used the amnesic subject to commit crimes. The human mind can be programmed to experience amnesia given any situation.

Star Energy

Energy from stars can be used to enhance personal traits, for example to strengthen self-discipline. Specific stellar energies can also be used used in rituals. Absorbing energy from Venus before performing a love spell can greatly assist in the desired outcome of the working. It is very important to know the nature of the star/s you intend to invoke energy from, as some stars such as Polaris and Caput Algol are extremely destructive and people who have invoked these energies have gone insane. In order to effectively absorb stellar energies, one should be experienced with breathing in energy. The Energy meditation trains us on how to do this. This exercise should be performed outdoors where you can see the star clearly. Steps: Relax and go into a trance. Close your eyes and say the name of the star several times while visualizing it. [Photos of stars can be seen by typing the name of the star or constellation into a search engine and clicking on “images.”] Keep repeating the name of the star either silently or aloud several times and try to feel the star. You should begin to feel the energy. Now charge your aura with energy until your entire being is glowing. This is done through visualization. Breathe in the energy from the earth into your feet and fill your entire being with it. Now, stand beneath the star and visualize a line of energy about a foot wide extending from your aura and connect it with the star. Begin to breathe in the energy from the star. The energy of each star has a specific color according to its attributes. Visualize the stellar energy saturating and expanding your aura with this color upon each inhale. You can program the energy with affirmations while you are breathing it in. For example, you can affirm: "I am breathing in green energy from Venus that is bringing me plenty of free and easy money in a happy way that is all mine to keep and spend as I please." Visualize your entire being saturated with green and with each inhale, the green becomes more and more vibrant and powerful. A guideline for the colors of stars is: Red- Martian energy, anger, violence, pure lust. Blue- peaceful, calming, spiritual, Yellow- intellect; mind White- cleansing, strength Orange- creativity Tips: You can use a crystal to absorb and store energy from stars to be used at a later time in a ritual or whenever you need it. Hold the crystal under the star in your palm and breathe in energy from the star through your hand chakras, only bring it into the crystal. Just visualize it entering the crystal and brightening and/or intensifying in the crystal. When you want to absorb the stored energy, just hold the crystal in your hand, and breathe in the energy through your hand. Visualize the energy entering your hand and extending to your entire being and aura. The crystal can also be placed over any chakras you choose for desired effects. Just breathe in the energy. A variation of the above is to program the crystal to absorb the stellar energy and leave it out under the star for as long as the star is visible and shining on it. Just focus your will into the crystal and tell it you want it to absorb energy from whatever star you choose. Repeat the name of the star several times and project the image of the star into your crystal using your third eye. You can also absorb energy from entire constellations. This should be done a little at a time until you are familiar with the energies and the effects. An advanced practice is to absorb the energies of a star you are familiar with into your chakras. Don’t do this unless you are already comfortable with the star’s effects and energies. Just breathe in the energy. You should be familiar and experienced with Chakra Breathing. It is best to work with stellar energies that are in harmony with the chakra you are working on. The energies should be of the same color. You can make star charged water. Use a clean magnet, place it at the bottom of a container of water and program it like a crystal. The water will absorb the energy. By drinking the water, you will absorb the energy. This can be an easier way to learn about the energies of the star you wish to work with, before seriously absorbing any of its energies. Here is a list of stars and their energies. To learn more regarding the time of year the star is visible, and the appearance of the star or constellation, there is much available on the internet and at public libraries under the subject of astronomy. FIXED STARS: Allow 1 - 2 degrees orb for conjunctions and oppositions to other planets. Conjunctions and oppositions are the only aspects that matter, with conjunctions being most important. The following interpretations concern when a fixed star is conjunct a planet in one's chart or an angle or is prominent. The nature of the planet also should be blended in with the nature of the fixed star. Personal planets such as chart ruler/s and angles are important, with the influence of the fixed star being emphasized in both the life affairs and in the personality. The four most prominent fixed stars are: Aldebaran; 9 degrees of Gemini Regulus; 29 degrees of Leo Antares; 9 degrees of Sagittarius Formalhaut; 3 degrees of Pisces These stars can also be prominent in magick. Aldebaran is known as "Watcher of the East." Regulus is known as "Watcher of the North." Antares, is known as "Watcher of the West." Formalhaut is known as "Watcher of the South." ALPHERATZ - [Sirrah] [14 Degrees Aries] Freedom, love of movement, speed, intellectual and can indicate riches and honors. The personality often has strong motivation, willfulness and the ability to take action. Those with this placement often come before the public and are popular with the masses. There is a considerate and harmonious nature, which is good for relationships. BATEN KAITOS - [20 degrees of Aries] There can be forced migration, accidents, and shipwreck. MIRACH - [0 Degrees Taurus] This star can give happiness in marriage, bestow artistic talent, and give a love of beauty. There is often strong intuition, along with a brilliant mind, and much creative talent. The disposition is generous and loving. These people often make friends easily and inspire others. Mirach gives beauty, and a love of the home and family. HAMAL - [6 Degrees of Taurus] There is a need for personal independence. These people often have a strong will, and dislike authority. This placement gives independent thought and leadership ability. In some cases, there can be cruelty and premeditated crime. ALMACH [Alamack] - [14 degrees of Taurus] This star gives a popular influence, making one well liked and bringing benefits come from others, along with a prominent position, and possible fame. There is often artistic ability. CAPUT ALGOL - [25 Degrees of Taurus] Caput Algol is one of the most violent stars in the zodiac. In natal charts, this gives a most violent disposition, along with murderous tendencies. These violent tendencies are intensified when one is intoxicated with drugs and/or alcohol. Here is the nasty, violent, mean, and vicious drunk. On the upside, it can bestow athletic ability. The intense nature, when sublimated, can give the drive to reach the top, but the affairs of the planet occupying this degree often end in disaster and misfortune. When conjunct the descendent, violence can come from others, especially the lover or marriage partner. I have noted more than one person with the Sun in conjunction with this star in being a pathological liar. ALCYONE - THE PLEIADES - [29 Degrees of Taurus] This star is bad for the eyesight and can even bring blindness. It also brings sorrowful events with something to cry about. There can be keen insight, strong ambition, and a harshly judgmental nature. There is often a love of nature, and the outdoors. There can be possible injuries to the face. HYADES - [5 Degrees of Gemini] Hyades gives a powerful sex drive, along with a greedy, overindulgent and excessive nature. These people are often exploitive of others. There can be tremendous success in life, but a lack of control and bad habits can cause one's ruin. There is often much vitality and the energy level is high. This placement gives a talent for martial activities and the military.
