You in a past life, creating Art to re-create your thought-form within the person looking at this Image.

“The key to understanding the idea of
reincarnation and past lives is that you were everybody. Of course,
that’s who you are, “Here Comes Everybody”,
you know you weren’t just that shepherd girl or that Roman emperor or
that Greek philosopher, you’re everybody, and you can find your way
into the great genetic telephone system and ring anybody’s bell in
history.

Well then it would be absurd to claim you were that person,
that would be as absurd as claiming that anybody you could call on the
telephone is who you are.

No, it’s that we are everyone, and you know
the great turning object in hyperspace, that is the genetic ….
trans-dimensional object, casts off glinting reflections of this
personality, that personality … we are all drawn of the same
stuff” – Terence McKenna.

Austin Osman Spare – The Death Posture: Preliminary Sensation Symbolized, “The Book of Pleasure”, 1913.

Here we see Spare specifically refering to his Kia (“Unconscious Ego”) concept as the Ka (“Second-Self”) that is, the Metaphysical double. However, by this he merely means the Lesser Self, or rather, the Duality inherent in manifest, material Reality. Spare says, quite to the point, that, “him who has (even symbolically) for a moment by the “Neither-Neither” conquered the Dual principle (Conception), his Ego is free from gravity”. Here we see the Dual “heart-like” glyph for Kia reflected one above and one below, the Eye of Horus, and an interesting sextuple “Wheel” of the “Sun”. The meaning of the “Death Posture” itself is clear: that, from Spiritual exertion unabated in utterly and absolute Abandon, the Mortal body (that being the Kia, or Least-Self) has collapsed down upon itself and shrunk inward upon itself. The effect would be somewhat similar to having the Spirit entirely drained from the Vessel of the Flesh in a Metaphysical Orgasm and leaving the shrinking skin to wrinkle down onto the Dust.

The Thoth Tarot deck has been my deck of choice since I was a little girl. My grandmother (who is a psychic) introduced me to it. Painted by Lady Frieda Harris according to instructions from Aleister Crowley, it’s majesty is unparalleled. This card was always my favorite as a child.

The quality of looking within and trusting what is there. The word confidence comes from the root base to confide. Confidence is the ability to confide in and deeply trust oneself.
