To hypnotize someone and move the person into a state of subconscious relaxation is perhaps more interesting and exciting an experience than getting hypnotized yourself. It requires a lot of patience and practice to be in a position to induce hypnosis and use it successfully. It takes both the hypnotist and his subject to participate equally to be able to achieve the specified results. In case the topic is unwilling to let go control of his consciousness, and allow himself to drift away into relaxation, it would impede the work of the hypnotist. Therefore , before beginning to hypnotise a subject, it is necessary to clear all misunderstandings patients often carry about hypnosis, like they will fall asleep or give out their techniques. It is vital to build trust between the topic and the hypnotist.

Many ancient societies believed the crystal skull was symbolic of life. The belief was in honouring humanity in the flesh and the embodiment of consciousness. Therefore you should not be surprised to know that the human body is a sensitive antenna system capable of receiving signals. When we come in to contact with a quartz crystal skull, the electro-magnetic energy waves we produce are received by the quartz. Without seeing it through normal vision, a crystal skull increases its vibrational frequency when you use it for the higher good. This in turn boosts your vibrational tempo. However, all is not done! This signal is again, for a second time, picked up on by the quartz skull and it proliferates this even more when sending it back to you one more time.

Aleister Crowley is well renowned for his unique writing style that can be both humorous and whimsical and can be very misleading on the face of it unless you read between the lines. This is not the case with The Book of Thoth, some say this is quite possibly his best work as he takes a deep reverent look at the Tarot in particular his version of the Tarot cards. The Book of Thoth is not intended for divinitory purposes, Instead Crowley takes a look at the individual cards as meditative devices to alter ones consciousness and peer into the unknown world. Crowley’s meanings are an adaptation biased on the Tarot of the Golden Dawn, It is certainly a book worth reading for those of you who are searching for enlightenment.
