Bezzu/Intermediate - Course of Study

As with the introductory course, the Bezzu/Intermediate training is set up in a graduated system designed to carry students further into the religious and magical practices of Ancient Egypt. In these lessons solid academic research in a of number disciplines are combined to form practical, fully documented magical techinques as shown in the archeological record of Egypt. All sources of information quoted are clearly listed in each lesson for future reference. It is our intention to present accurate information that provides students with both academic knowledge and practical experience. To ensure this each student is assigned an individual instructor.

Ancient Egyptian Ritual Magic
This course begins one's training at the Bezzu level. In this course more advanced methods of ritual are discussed, as well the proper means of invoking the Neteru through the use of scared images and statues as described in the actual temple inscriptions from Egypt.

• Lesson One: The Elements of Egyptian Ritual - In Ancient Egyptian ritual practices every detail held immense symbolic significance. In this lesson we carefully examine the use of ceremonial gestures and stances with a special look at the Henu ritual which is also known as the "Recitations of the Glorifications." In addition the ritual use of precious stones and metals are eximined, as well as the esoteric meaning of colors and numbers as understood by the Ancient Egyptians.

• Lesson Two: Amulets and Talismans - Their Construction and Use - In practical magic there is a distinct difference between amulets and talismans. This lesson explains these differences, giving the five classifications assigned by Egyptologists. Yet the student is taken beyond a rudementary understanding of the esoteric use of many different amulets and talismans. Rather detailed instructions providing the keys to successful Talismanic Magic are carefully presented, including a rite drawn from ancient texts for the consecration of these sacred and important tools of Egyptian magic.

  
  

• Lesson Three: Trance in Ancient Egyptian Ritual - The ability to enter into altered states at will was a vital part of the training of the Egyptian Priesthood. In this lesson we examine the use of trance in oracle, communication with the Akhu (Blessed Dead), and the Neteru themselves. A variety of techniques are discussed including the "theraputic dream" used in the temples, scrying in the flame of an oil lamp, meditative trance during advanced Daily Rite activities, as well as trance induction through chanting, dance and music. In addition this lesson presents the ritual use of the "False Door" also known as the "Door of the Sky" in order to project one's Ka.

• Lesson Four: Hem Neter - The Purpose and Care of the Sacred Statue - In the Egyptian magical system the ritual care of the statues of the Neteru are at the heart of this potent spiritual discipline. This lesson opens with an extensive examination of the energies and "spiritual bodies" that both humans and the Neteru possess. Only through understanding these forces can the magician begin to see exactly how the statue is used effectively to draw the Neter into ritual. The Egyptian concepts of the ht, jrw, Khat, Sha, Shat, Ka, Ba, Akh, Khu, Sahu, Khaibit, Haidit and swt are all clearly explained. In addition techniques for discovering one's Ren - the hidden name of the individual are given. Finally the lesson ties these concepts together in a detailed examination of the ritual use of both the Naos (sacred tabernacle) as a gate to the realm of the Neteru and the statue itself.

• Lesson Five: The Opening of the Mouth Ceremony - Considered one of the most fundamental and important rituals employed in Ancient Egyptian magic, this ceremony is used to draw the spiritual essence of an entitiy or Neter into an object. In this lesson we present the complete ceremony as it was inteneded for drawing the Neteru into the sacred statue. This was done so that the statue would become the living embodiment of the Neter, thus becoming one of the magician's most powerful magical tools. The entire rite is carefully explained with simple to understand intstructions.

• Lesson Six: Invocations and Magical Texts - In Ancient Egypt magic was widely used to resolve material matters. In this lesson we present a variety of magical texts, spells, invocations and rituals all of which are used for practical purposes. Home purification and protection, prosperity, love, health, the removal of obstacles and more are all addressed. In addition the creation of a magical link used to influence another person is explained. The lesson finishes with a detailed description of a festival rite of Hwt-Hrw (Hathor) as explained in texts from a variety of temples in Egypt.

  

• Lesson Seven: Complete Wenwet Daily Rite and its Purpose - With this lesson we present the complete daily rite as it was performed by the Priesthood of Ancient Egypt; giving complete ritual texts for each step of the ceremony including the complex procedures involved with drawing the Neter's Ka into the sacred statue.

• Lesson Eight: Wep Renpet - The Spiritual Awakening of the Year - The Ancient Egyptian New Year was and is one of the most sacred festivals celebrated. This was the primary festival in which the energy of the Sun God and Stellar Goddess combined was ritually drawn into the sacred statues of the temples. This lesson gives a working version of this rite as drawn from ancient texts.

• Lesson Nine: The Mysteries of Aset and Ausir - Considered one of the most beautiful, sacred and complex ceremonies of Ancient Egypt, the ceremonial enactment of the resurrection of Ausir (Osiris) and the impregnation of Aset (Isis) is a vital part of the Egyptian spiritual tradition. Described in detail in the roof top shrines of the temple of Dendera, we present a working version translated into clear language.

• Lesson Ten: The Wenwet - The Priesthood of the Temples - In Ancient Egypt each temple had a complex system of priests and priestesses, each of which was vital to the functioning of the temple rituals. This lesson examines these roles in detail.
