Occult Medicine And Practical Magic
Samael Aun Weor
The gigantic Cedars from the forests communicate amongst themselves by means of
lugubrious thuds which resound in remote sites on Good Thursdays and Good Fridays.
A tablecloth must always be over the altar-table of the Healing Sanctuary and over this is
placed a folded tablecloth embroidered with pictures which represent dramas from
Christ’s Passion. These embroidered tablecloths are similar to the corporal of the Roman
Church.
The cups and sacred chalices, also the vessels filled with vegetable substances that are
given to the sick people to drink, must be placed over the embroidered tablecloth.
The phial with perfumes, which is a metallic cylindrical and prismatic cup, with a base or
foot of a goblet, must not be missing over this altar-table either. This phial must have
over its lid a little metallic tower or little metallic flag made with tin or copper, which are
the metals of Jupiter and Venus.
In order to cure the sick person, the patient must be surrounded by intense perfumes.
Frankincense is the principal vehicle for the curative waves of the mind of the Medic-
Magician, in combination with the vegetable elementals.
Some aromatic plants can be added to the frankincense such as flowers of Cyprus,
Spikenard, Saffron, Amber, Calamus, Aloe and powderfrom spices.
The Gnostic Medic will never use perfumes or scented substances which contain mineral
substances, because those are used in order to perform black magic.
The perfumes shall be blessed with the following prayer: “Praise be thou, oh Lord our
God, King of the world, who created all the species aromas.”
Lamaic medicine divides the scented essences in five groups: repugnant, penetrating,
piquant, aromatic, rancid and savory.
Sick people who require curative perfumes will be medicated with the utensil for
perfumes.
Perfumed candles shall never be missing on the Altar of the Gnostic Medic, because the
fire of the candles acts in an effective way over the subconscious of the sick person. The
philosopher Mahayana wrote a whole book in Tibet about the preparation of perfumed
candles.
The Gnostic Medic must extinguish the fire of a candle within a cup of wine after every
curative operation. This as an action of thanksgiving to the Gods of Fire.
Twelve balls of cloth filled with aromatic herbs hung from the ceiling must be placed in
every Healing Sanctuary. Each ball will contain the corresponding herbs related with a
zodiacal sign.
