Occult Album Details – Psiriel – INSTRUCT THE DARKNESS
Magic Made Matter!
Safe methods of magical engagement are beyond the scope of this project and should be carefully considered by the user prior to conscious engagement of foreign intelligences.
Studies in Holy Scripture, Hermetic Magic, the Qabalah and related subjects will aid the listener in coming to terms with the various protocols and forces governing the planes in question.*
* The author uses a practical combination of Christian Mysticism, Qabalistic Magic and Dynamic Fatalism to achieve the necessary balance of self-esteem and awareness required to safely engage with high-fidelity forces. I balance squarely on the concept of grace, entirely detached from the written law, and any success is thus obtained.
An Explanation of the Five Tracks
1. L.E.M.A – Light Energy Matter Astral-Matter
Plane: Physical to Initial Sub-atomic Astral
Not qualifying as a song, this is rather an atmosphere-generator and is used for “Opening the Lodge”, so to speak.
2. I.N.S-Sh – In the Name of the Son, Shine
Plane: Astral
Still very much in the emotional state, this is intended to begin reflection of spiritual frequencies, rather than those more closely tied to the denser chemical reactions of the body.
The tail-end of the track is a minimalist kick and bass-line which reminds the author of feelings similar to the effects of friendship and other material forms of love.
3. A.E.I.S – Astral Energy Imaging Sequence
Plane: Astral to Interfacing Mental
The track “AEIS” forms the pinnacle of the astral imaging process and will require special concentration due to its non-synchronized and non-”musical” nature, although it is the artist’s belief that the harmony traditionally expected on the surface resides here between the lines.
Breaking from familiar musical forms, it paints an energic atmosphere of sound with the intention of fully absorbing the brain’s relative attention span to harmonic combinational detail. It is experimentally motivated and investigates the possibilities of aggregating perception in order to illicit the reception of patterns which reflect frequencies similar to the celestial densities inhabited by angelic beings and spiritual forces.
As the vocal content of AEIS is often illegible due to layering and processing, it is worth advising that the lyrics are comprised of an invocation sourced from Qabalistic Magic. In addition to this, the lead instrument embodies the digitally scrambled remnants of a poem whose transcript is reproduced below.
For those apprehensive of evil spirits and uncontrollable forces, let be it known that all magical operations are performed in full faith of the active engagement of Christ and are qualified through the Freedom and Liberty He has afforded us. That said, the end user’s own influence on the outcome of any magical operation is inevitable, hence Karma and Grace will balance as always!
This is a meditation on IHVH-ADNI.
4. TPLR-QBL – Tetrapolar Qabalah!
Plane: Mental
This track uses the canticle IHVH-ADNI, as performed by Rawn Clark, interleaved with the same Qabalistic invocation found in AEIS. These vocals are superimposed upon a force of music intended to illicit images of the ancient and future temples of magic, so mournfully missing from the present time of writing!
Though it is dark, remember that night divides the day and every spiritual rebirth begins with death. Satan was meant to be, as was Christ and that just because there is no such as thing as intelligent evil, it doesn’t mean there is nothing out to get you. 
5. FGVE – Forgive
Plane: Mental to Physical Feedback Loop
This evokes a sense of peace and a fundamental faith in the benevolent forces that can direct our individual fates in the material universe.
Theme
The theme of the album is essentially that we need to die again, rather than be born again, to enter the Kingdom of Heaven – “For he who loses his life for my sake, shall find it”.
We should remember that the Kingdom of Heaven is within us, and can be attained in this life, in these bodies and it can grow in degrees as it is entered by more souls.
I myself still feel I am only knocking and at other times that I am in the sanctuary, but such is the chemistry and makeup of my human condition!
Magical Invocation in ‘AEIS’ & ‘TPLR-QBL’
From Eliphas Levi’s ‘Transcendental Magic’
Powers of the Kingdom, be ye under my left foot and in my right hand!
Glory and Eternity, take me by the two shoulders, and direct me in the paths of victory!
Mercy and Justice, be ye the equilibrium and splendour of my life!
Intelligence and Wisdom, crown me!
Spirits of Malkuth, lead me between the two Pillars
upon which rests the whole edifice of the Temple!
Angels of Netsach and Hod, establish me upon the cubic stone of Yesod!
O Gedulael! O Geburael! O Tiphereth! Binael, be ye my love!
Ruach Hoch-mael, be thou my light!
Be that which thou are and thou shalt be, O Ketheriel!
Ishim, assist me in the name of Shaddai!
Cherubim, be my strength in the name of Adonai!
Beni-Elohim, be my brethren in the name of the Son,
and by the powers of Zebaoth!
Eloim, do battle for me in the name of Tetragrammaton!
Melachim, protect me in the name of Yod He Vau He!
Seraphim, cleanse my love in the name of Elvoh!
Hashmalim, enlighten me with the splendours of Eloi and Shekinah!
Aralim, act! Ophanim, revolve and shine!
Haioth ha Kadosh, cry, speak, roar, bellow!
Kadosh, Kadosh, Kadosh, Shaddai, Adonai, Jotch-abah, Eiazereie!
Hallelu-jah, Hallelu-jah, Hallelu-jah.
Amen.
Original Lyrics Composing the Lead Instrument in ‘AEIS’
slide so deep
loss of all constraint
repulse the new attraction
dreams are gone
so is sleep
activity more apparent
as morals fade away
present in the darkness
silent by the day
cross the faith
and God the master
what angels lie beneath
this canopy of shelter
watch and listen
spectral telepathic
eye meets with matter
astral light magic trick
teach and taught
but never sentient
use an eternal tutor
master an element
growing far
from all known light
drifting further
into second sight
refer the book
hold the key
deep down in flesh
lies mystery
combinations
derivations
perturbations
elevations
these are
an active masters
ministrations
hold me still
while floating stray
love evolves
my sin away
life makes me
mortal
mortal makes me
live
love life
love death
love god
love
