Step I: Foundational Hermetic Control

Step I: Foundational Control & Self‑Knowledge

Building mental silence, elemental character insight, and disciplined physical awareness.

Step I: Foundational Control & Self-Knowledge

1. Magic Mental Training

  • Thought Observation: Sit or lie down comfortably. Relax and observe your thoughts without getting lost in them or falling asleep. Start with 5 minutes; increase by 1 minute daily until reaching 10 minutes. 
  • Single-Thought Focus: Practice holding a single professional or private thought while consciously suppressing all intruding thoughts. Practice focusing solely on one idea for at least 10 minutes. 
  • Vacancy of Mind: Energetically clear all thoughts from your mind. Maintain absolute mental silence without falling asleep for 10 minutes. 
  • Magic Journal: Log all successes, failures, duration of exercises, and disturbances. Plan schedules for the day/week and practice strict self-criticism. 

2. Magic Psychic Training

  • Self-Introspection: Conduct an unsparing analysis of your personality. Record all weaknesses, faults, and passions in your diary. 
  • Black & White Soul Mirrors: Categorize your bad qualities (Black Mirror) and good qualities (White Mirror) into the four elements: 
    • Fire: Anger, jealousy / Courage, enthusiasm 
    • Air: Frivolity, gossiping / Optimism, joy, diligence 
    • Water: Laziness, indifference / Compassion, modesty, tranquility 
    • Earth: Melancholy, dullness / Punctuality, endurance, thoroughness 
  • Group Sub-division: Divide each element's qualities into three groups: major/frequent faults, moderate faults, and minor/infrequent faults. 

3. Magic Physical Training

  • Body Care: Daily dry-skin brushing to open pores, followed by cold-water washing and energetic rubbing with a rough towel. Include basic morning callisthenics/stretching. 
  • Conscious Breathing: Inhale through the nose while imagining that a specific quality (e.g., health, peace, success) enters your blood and body with the air. Start with 7 breaths morning and night; increase by 1 breath daily up to a maximum of 10–30 minutes. 
  • Conscious Reception of Food: Impregnate food or drink with your desire through intense concentration (or hand blessing) before eating. Eat slowly, consciously, and without distraction (no reading or chatting). 
  • Magic of Water:
    • Washing away negativity: Wash hands/body under running water while visualizing failures, troubles, and illness being washed away. 
    • Impregnating water: Magnetize cold water with a positive desire before washing or dipping the face. 
    • Eyebath: Open and roll eyes in previously boiled, magnetized cold water 7 times to strengthen sight.
