Aethyrs

by: Gerald and Betty Scheuler

 
Enochian Magick specifies thirty special zones called the Aethyrs, or Aires. These range from TEX, the lowest, which interfaces our Earth, to the highest, LIL, which interfaces the world of divinity. The Enochian magician learns to leave his or her physical body and travel through these Aethyrs in his or her Body of Light—the aura of modern occultism and Theosophy. As this happens, the principles that create and sustain existence manifest themselves to the traveler. He or she learns what life is all about, and what his or her purpose in life is to be. He or she can then learn the lessons of manifested existence and free him or herself from the forces of karma and reincarnation in a single lifetime. Like the jivamukti of Vedanta, the Enochian magician can become liberated while living—a living embodiment of spiritual knowledge and power. This is the ultimate goal of Enochian Magick.

Idaea

by Dr Alena Trckova-Flamee Ph.D.

 
The name Ida or Idaea (Idaia) appeared in the Greek myths as the name of two nymphs who were living in various places. The first nymph lived on Ida, which is the highest point of Crete (in modern times called Mount Psiloritis 2456m) and the second one was living on Mount Ida (now named Kaz Gagi 1774m) in ancient Phrygia near Troy, in the north-western region of Turkey. Ida, -idi means in the Greek language the wooded mountain, so this word became the name of the mountains as well as the name of these female divinities; the nymphs who were — according to the myths — living on Mount Ida.
