Consciousness
Creating a Reservoir of Positive Intent
Greetings!
One of the first things I teach my students is the construction of a Reservoir of Positive Intent, or R.P.I. With this Cognitive Thought Form (C.T.F.) one may learn many of the key Principles of Alchemy, should they invest sufficient time on the symbolism and nature of materials and Cognitive Intent.
Enjoy the presentation! And don’t forget to SUBSCRIBE! =D
Meditations on The Cube — Saturn — And Their Potential Significance!
Meditations on The Cube …
This is one of the first exercises I give to my Alchemy students: to take a simple child’s “Building block” and render it in two dimensions in as many ways as they can imagine. Then they are to look in the world around them as see if what they have drawn is in use around them today. Corporate logos & breweries, church steeples, mosques, cathedrals, temples, monasteries, and countless other secular and sacred places bear this mark. The question next to be asked is, “Why?”
The Key is found in the Kabbalah, and its name is Binah, Saturn, Aralim,Tzaphkiel, Yod Heh Vav Heh, the Third Emanation, and Mara the Sea of Bitterness. It is the Key to Understanding the Foundation of Material Creation. It is that which provides Structure amid the chaos of Creation. It is the Root of the Pillar of Severity.
This video, is the first of a “Meditation Series” that is used to assist the student in opening their mind to the presentation of symbolism in many contexts. The ultimate aim, to recognize the strength of one of the world’s oldest and most pervasive Cognitive Thought Forms (symbols), and to seek an understanding as to why this Cognitive Thought Form is so significant, and how this knowledge can be applied to facilitate greater enlightenment, insight, strength, and power.
What “Power?” The power to enter upon the Transmutation of the Self, to take one’s leaden state into something more … something precious, something golden, something divine. It is the power to transmute etheric lead into gold and achieve the greatest treasure of all: Ascension.
It all begins with a single building block.
Now sit back, turn down the lights and relax. Allow the music and the imagery to flow over you as you open your mind to the potentials of the Unconscious and ply your way through the countless centuries of symbolic meaning and associations.
Enjoy!

Seek With Me!
Seek With Me!
By
Aubrey Forest
Why is it that some may Seek
While others do not?
Why is it that most rarely look up
And simply Wonder?
Why do we fear the Unknown
When the tonic is the search to Know?
Why is it that we willingly Sacrifice
Wisdom and Understanding
Upon the altar of Ignorance?
When it is They who shall be our Salvation?
Why do so many settle for
So little,
When they could have
So much more?
Is it because the Universe lacks
Beauty
And Majesty
That we seem to take it all for granted?
Or is it because
We seeing do not See
We hearing do not Hear?
And so we lack Wisdom.
And so we lack Understanding.
I see because I have chosen to See!
I hear because I have chosen to Listen!
And by so doing I have come
To the gates of Knowledge
In Search of Wisdom and Understanding
And have been amply rewarded
For my endless
Questing
Searching,
Seeking
And Asking, Why?
I have Seen the Universe’s distant Grandeur
In flower petals and in trees
I have Heard her Siren Song
As I have walked along the seas.
She calls to us
And cries,
Join me!
Seek with me!
And together
We shall learn
There is so much
To See
To Know!
To Do
And To Understand.
For it is in our search
That we shall find more than mere treasure,
We shall find Ourselves;
And see our Bond,
Our Union,
Our Endless Oneness
Within the Stars!
The Modern Alchemist Discusses Alchemy Basics on KAOS 89.3 FM with “Radio Ray”
HI Everyone!
My first radio appearance, and I think it went really well! Spent some time working on a well-timed slide presentation to go with the interview so that you could get an idea of what I was trying to visualize in my mind through our discussion!
Super excited to do another radio interview!
If you have anything that you would like me to cover, please leave a comment below. Title it “Ask An Alchemist” or you can put it on my discussion board here on YouTube!
Brightest Blessings! Enjoy the Show!

Google’s New Plan to Estimate a Web Source’s Trustworthiness
Be wary of this, my friends. Not all scientific domains are equal. Within the sciences, there are often those given preferential treatment as being “The Truth” (via consensus), regardless of the data provided by empirical evidence. Climate change, stellar formations, dinosaurs, geology, archaeology, anthropology, and many others are often filled with controversies which are regulated by those with the most funds, and the most accepted dogma.
This is Thought and Consciousness control on a massive scale.— Aubrey Forest

“The Shift” Discussed on NPR
So … I have been talking about “The Shift” for quite some time now … and this morning my daughter calls me and informs me that all I have been discussing and observing on an ESOTERIC level is HAPPENING NOW in a very real material level and being discussed on the radio now. And it was!
Check out Rebecca Tracer’s interview on NPR and her book “Big Girls Don’t Cry.” (Here’s the interview: http://www.npr.org/2014/09/30/352661280/marriage-pattern-shifts-seen-by-some-as-destabilizing-society)
You know … I have to say it is extraordinarily satisfying to witness the parallelism of the spiritual and the material riding concurrent threads (as it always has.) As I have said, I have SEEN this coming. I know where it’s going and I’m on board with the transition. Nice to hear what I have been saying put in more material terms!
For more about what I have been discussing, check out my observations on the “Coming of the Bridegroom” — which is a COSMOLOGICAL PRINCIPLE and not a literal thing — here:

How to Identify the Bridegroom
By Aubrey Forest Zonneveldt
I have often wondered, why is it that the groom wears black and the bride wears white. The common assumption is that the bride is virginal, hence the white, but what of the groom? If white were to truly signify purity during this most sacred union, then would not black signify corruption? Are we assuming a double standard here and in some way excusing the groom of any wrong-doing by having him clad in black raiment, or is there something more going on … and can we learn something significant as a result of this symbolic understanding?
I submit that the tale we have been told of virginal purity of the Bride is just that, a tale. Yes, it may be true that the bride will be a virgin upon her wedding night, but we all know the truth, that’s more the exception than the rule…

Kicking Dog Poo Off The Path
By Aubrey Forest Zonneveldt
A short while ago, while walking along the paths of our local city park I and my friends came upon a rather moderately sized dog poo lying just a few feet from center path to the right. My friends studiously avoided the poo and while unnecessary, warned me of its presence since I was walking barefoot and carrying my flip flops.
As they passed the poo I stopped and considered it for a moment. My friends pressed on, unaware that I had stopped, while I continued to ponder the rather impressive poo. At last my friends stopped and turned around, wondering what had become of me, and as they did, I slid on my right flip flop and expertly chipped the entire poo under the blackberry bushes that lined the path, well out of the way of any passerby.
My friends walked back and in unison…

The Role of an Illuminist
The Role of an Illuminist
By Aubrey Forest Zonneveldt
We live in a world filled with symbols. Quite literally, there is nothing we do, say, see, or use that is not or does not have a relevant or meaningful symbolic association. This begs the question: why? Why have so many symbols been placed over and over and over again in every possible combination, and yet, never an explanation as to their meaning is provided? Why surround every major corporation, government, church, language, or currency with so much obvious symbolic meaning, and yet, never acknowledge that it is there, nor provide any kind of assistance to identify why it is there at all.
Why?
Some time ago, the answer came to me. This is the first test. Will you stop, or even pause long enough to wonder, why? The asking of “Why” is the very essence of learning; for it at…

Magnetoception, Electric Consciousness, and The World
Magnetoception (or magnetoreception as it was first referred to in 1972[1]) is a sense which allows an organism to detect a magnetic field to perceive direction, altitude or location. This sense has been proposed to explain animal navigation in vertebrates and insects, and as a method for animals to develop regional maps. For the purpose of navigation, magnetoception deals with the detection of the Earth’s magnetic field.
Magnetoception has been observed in bacteria, in invertebrates such as fruit flies, lobsters and honeybees. It has also been demonstrated in vertebrates including birds, turtles, sharks and stingrays.
– Wikipedia
This process of flock/flying behavior, also seen in fish, can not be explained by mere split-second adjustments between one bird (or fish) and another animal near it. Many, myself included, feel that this is further evidence of communal intelligence and that the flock is acting as a singular organism rather than a collection of animals.
This is possible if we are also willing to consider something else: that what we perceive as our cognitive process is not what is actually happening (localized cognition). Instead, cognition may be generated externally from the body and received via the neurological pathways of the brain — much like a radio receiver. In this way, one could posit that we, in fact, do not “Think” thoughts.
Magnetoception may be the key to cracking this particular nut. It demonstrates that organisms function on at least two different levels: independent and collective cognitive activity. In fact, only we human are disputed as having any magnetoceptive abilities (even though our eyes have evolved to perceived subtle variations of magnetism, perhaps during a period wherein the environment was more electrically charged — google it), which I believe is largely due to our personal attachment to the “Fact” that we generate our thinking (whatever that is) independent of our respective environment.
This would, of course, make us the ONLY animal incapable of detecting, sensing, or being guided by these fields. Ridiculous.
So why is this so important? Why is a video of Starlings flocking so key? Because while we may be the slowest kids on the block relative to our awareness of our connection to the world and universe around us, we are STILL connected. This means that we as a collective humanity can be just as connected as these birds (perhaps we already are). It means that as the planet, our solar system, and our galaxy moves through the cosmos and enters into new areas of electomagnetic influence, WE will also be influenced.
In truth, I believe this is already happening. Look around you, while there may be confict on the news, the reality is that our children who are not being crippled by vaccines are more brilliant, and more stunningly aware than ever before. The awakening IS HAPPENING!
I kid you not … one day we will all awake and realize the Truth of it all and stop. We will stop our wars, our petty hatreds, our ridiculous disputes, and return again to the earth and our first calling: to tend and take care of each other an our environment.
After all, what higher calling could there be?
