altar, etc., suffices.
In contrast to these low-energy methods, the dominant sex magician
has an infinitely more powerful and sensitive canvas to paint his or her will
upon. The dominant can utilize the willing body and psyche of the submissive
as the medium through which the dominant's requisite alterations are
wrought. In effect, the dominant magician's exercise of complete control over
the slave mirrors the desired control over some aspect of the universe he or
she seeks to transform. To say that using a living human being as one's
magical tool far exceeds the more common magical practice of utilizing some
inanimate object is a vast understatement.
In fact, (luring the interval outside of normal space and time during
which the working is performed, the submissive is no longer the individual
447
they were before the rite began; they have effectively become that discrete
facet of the cosmos you wish to effect. By binding, flagellating, branding, or
any other algolagniac manipulation of the utterly compliant flesh and blood
that has submitted to you, you are directly exercising your mastery over the
daemonic or mundane plane of existence you most need to target.
The added fact that your submissive (the symbolic universe) has
willingly submitted to your desires and is actually experiencing an intense
level of sexual excitation as you work your will upon him/her provides a push
of lila energy to realizing your magical goal that cannot be underestimated.
At that moment of exchange, the universe, as personified in the living flesh of
the submissive, changes according to the dominant's design. The dominant
creating these changes in the submissive receives the will-affirming signal
from the obvious erotic enjoyment his or her mastery creates in the
submissive that maya is literally bending to the will's command.
The options here are infinite, and the threshold of your imagination is
your only limit. The submissive could serve as a stand-in for an abstract
principle in your life or in yourself that you wish to transform, or as a specific
person you seek to control for some purpose advantageous to you, to name
just a few possibilities. Depending on how erogenously receptive to pain and
448
the physical act of obedience your slave is, the submissive's orgasm can
signal that the universe has utterly bowed down to your magical demand.
No single set of conditions is best for every situation; but such
workings of mastery require a careful consideration of the actual mechanics
involved before the rite actually commences. Should you verbally express
your commands to the submissive as if you are addressing that aspect of
reality you seek to dominate, or should this be communicated wordlessly
through the more primal sexual interaction alone? Keep in mind that ordering
your submissive around as if she or he is the particular facet of reality that
you wish to alter may be considerably less exciting than less specific
imagery, thus draining some of the power from the working.
Will the working be more successful if the submissive is fully aware
of the symbolic function they are expected to serve, or should the dominant
withhold this information, adding the power of mystery to the operation? In
some cases, when the submissive is a skilled magician, he or she can
consciously attune his or her consciousness to the selected magical target,
although this requires a great deal of psychological flexibility and acuity.
Equally positive results have been attained using any number of
combinations; the dominant alone must decide what seems appropriate.
In all cases, it's always important to remember that the flow of
genuine sexual excitement between both parties must be kept at its absolute
height; this can easily be bogged down by adhering to too tight a "script" for
the working. A certain amount of play-acting can be stimulating to some but
it can just as likely he distracting.
Another factor that must always be considered is the endlessly
