The above analogy is interestingly enough very closely related to the Tarot figure of the Chariot. The figure standing within presents an aire of triumph and victory as does the card itself. The chariot is drawn by two headstrong sometimes sphinxes, sometimes steeds. The message to be conveyed is the idea of the duality of the nature of man. His physical nature versus his spiritual aspirations. Some attribute them to the permanent witness and the spiritual witness which monitor and record man's every act and deed. (see Opening of the Way....Isha Schwaller De Lubicz) as well as the born digital website which link was sent out in a previous musing.....
On the topic of possession as it relates to the Archetypes, I recently (within two weeks) experienced an event that was as close to a possession as I care to experience. The event was characterized by acute bouts of rage and prolonged states of sexual arousal with heightened even cosmic orgasms, followed by chaotic immunity, excruciating pains in the abdomen, neck and shoulders, as well as in the lower back. I also experienced other peculiar synchronicities and violent mood swings from extreme ectactic joy to deep energyless depression.
In the end my partner, who was totally traumatized by the series of events, having no working knowledge of the occult or supernatural or neophytic knowledge at best, was unvwilling to continue with our relationship. The actual archetype at work was what appeared to be the Empress, since the character and modus operandi were in exact synchronicity. The trigger was that I had been doing meditative and visualization work with that particular Archetype as it was the exact character and nature of my partner. I was totally possessed by the entity and it was so obvious that the possession had ended because of the ensuing calm and total reversal of the previously mentioned symptoms in the end. This all occurred after at least 6 months of spiritual stillness in an effort to stem a previous k eruption. The only spiritual work I was doing at the time centered around the Tarot so it was almost inevitable that such an evernt occur.

Posession is a very real phenomenon and should be considered as a possible pitfall to the activation, intentional or unintenional, of the K-force. The Energy if often activated by accident as it were, in the study of some form of religious, occult, other meta physical doctrine, or during various types of initiation in which the subjects are in a generally heightened state of awareness for sustained periods.
The phenomenon experienced during the activation should be in no wise sought after as a path for attainment. Many of them are merely fallen shells from the higher realms, still charged with a diluted form of the pure energy that emanates in keter, the crown chakra. Cabala teaches that these fallen shells act as a means of reward or punishment for mankind. If one yields to the power of the fallen entity in pursuit of some ego driven desire, it will almost always end in disaster not only for the individual but for the collective as well. The Borgian concept of a collective that hears the every minutest musing of all the others within the collective, somehow does not seem so foreign anymore. To not yield to such impure forces will ultimately mean that the initiate will be assisted along the path by other purer helping entities. We should not get caught up in trying to duplicate someone else's experiences as this could lead to psychosis if some one is not able to properly synthesize the phenomena that are inherently possible, or to extreme depressions when after repeated failures at duplication.
May this Information be a healing to all who read and assist others in achieving Gnosis.........Jeffrey
