.... "WHAT IS spiritual warfare?" ....
Spiritual Warfare for me, is just using the energies and means available to you to bring harm to your enemies in battle. It's no different than picking up a weapon and fighting with it, it's there, so you use it. Black Magick is as simply accessible and integrated as White Magick is, all aspects are just energy that you direct and control, there is no special seperation other than what defines them. Black Magick is negative or hostile used to insight negativity and such, White Magick is positive, used for positive things and what not. The only differentiation of energy that decides which one you are doing is how you utilize it.
Take the colours for example, let's saaay, Red. Red coloured energy can be used to incite anger, bloodshed, accidents, violence, hatred, war, anarchy, these are it's negative traits when you apply them, and when you apply these negative traits to incite negative means, say on an enemy for example, then suddenly that's not just magick, that's Black Magick which is defined as a category of magick USEAGE that caters to negative incantations.
Now Red can also incite strength, courage, passionate love, will-power, determination, energy, self-confidence. These are the positive traits of the colour, and when applied for
positive USE, then suddenly what you're doing is called White Magick of which is defined as the use of positive incantations for positive means.
White Magick and Black Magic are not divided by any sense other than what they define the specific usage of magick or working you are doing. There is no special difference when using Black Magick compared to White Magick other than it can be dangerous if one is not confident and skilled enough in their capabilities. It can be done casually, or intensely with a direct and focused working, much like White Magick. Casually breathing in white-gold energy to empower yourself vs casually directing grey energy into another individual for revenge. And doing a full-fledged focused working to heal a disease in your body with White Magick vs doing a full-fledged focused working to GIVE a disease to an enemy with Black Magick.
When you focus and delve too deeply into negative things for too long, you are connecting yourself with it as you form a kind of bond, those energy links that attach to you. You don't want to do that with negative energies or scenarios. For example, I have a catering to darkness, 'evil' things and feel a distinct comfort with dark energies, grey, black darkness, death, whatever, I like graveyards and stuff and death symbolism, grim reaper, you name it; but I also remain aware to keep this interest objective, and as much as I want to embrace and be 'part' of it somehow and bring it into my soul because of this connection (likely due to Saturn) I have to ensure by all means that I
don't. It sucks and feels like I'm missing something but I exact discipline because it HAS harmed me in the past doing this and brought misfortune upon me. I still like it and feel that comfort with it, but I ensure it stays outside of myself and that I am to be aware specifically what my thought patterns are.
If you keep visualizing and thinking of murdering people frequently for example, or wondering what it's like to kill someone all the time and putting yourself in that scene to 'test' it, chances are you'll end up in a scenario eventually where you actually end up killing someone whether by accident or on purpose and you'll severely regret it, not only causing a massive blockage and hangup in your soul but also end up in jail. Never visualize YOURSELF involved or in any scenario, visual, focus or whatever with negative energy and negative energy caterings, as yes... it
is self-destructive. Control objectivity and evocation appropriately and be aware of yourself in regards to this.
Here's another example of self-destructive caterings. You see in my past-life as a pagan knight in the Knights Templar, I was tortured to death, that was normal for us as "heretics". And in this life-time, that has been manifested as a sexual
fetish, I'm very masochistic and find sexual delight in being harmed or fantasizing about being harmed/tortured.
This. is. bad. And I have to discipline myself every time to control it and shut it out because when one fantasizes about such things, they bring it to them. It was once revealed to me the reasoning that such things develop as sexual fetishes in a life-time and it was revealed out of no where. It's been experimented and studied that fear and lust can interchange with one another on a psychological level, and everything physical reflects on the astral as well, they are mirrors of one another, so of course this interchange also responds as energy or a trait within the soul, and in the medieval era everybody greatly feared torture, and no doubt I was absolutely
petrified and consumed with utter terror and fear
while being tortured. I also was very likely bound up of course while being tortured because I also like bondage and being tied up, again as a sexual fetish. So I guess this is also an answer to people's questions that yes, sexual fetishes DO develop from a past-life and it could be from a harmful source too.
Anyways, in regards to natural dark and malicious caterings... I just vent all of it on the enemy and thoroughly enjoy inflicting every negative aspect I can on them. The enemy is where you can let loose these caterings and natural viciousness in a healthy way. I have such a grand time doing RTRs and visualizing dead jews piled up to the sky or their bodies just lying every where in the most gruesome imagery I can come up with. I'll visualize greys crashing their ships and being split apart with serrated metal, I'll visualize the entire reptiloid race becoming extinct, their guts spilled everywhere, their souls torn apart into nonexistence, you name it, I go all out, I love it, it's such a wicked delight, I hope someday to actually do it personally to them.
Yes, you are programming and directing things on the astral when you do all of this and it
does have the potential to definitely manifest, that is why one must be careful and aware of what they are really doing. And in regards to destroying a lot and creating little, you excel naturally where you excel naturally. But you need to find strength and power in both, it's been stated on the website that one shouldn't focus on only White Magick, as you advance you'll eventually need to learn how to use Black Magick. This is the same idea when your main focus is Black Magick, you need to learn and strengthen your use of White Magick as well, you shouldn't atrophy or be weak in either as you advance. I make a point of keeping up with my skills and uses of White Magick, building protective auras, manipulating white-gold energy, doing lots of positive workings that help me just for the sake of it.
Because if you focus on darkness all the time and only darkness...
That's all you'll see.
