Looking again at this title, I can see this could be the name of a childrens’ book, this wasn’t however really my intention. I recently watched Adam Curtis’ Can’t Get You Out of My Head, where he presents Kerry Thornley as an eccentric who fell into a deluded dream world. It was interesting to see this materialist take (possibly for the BBC) as I had only every considered if from the ontological weirdness positition. For Curtis, the Discordians were clever pranksters who tried to expose the absurdity of conspiracy culture, only to be undone by their own illusions. The show’s neat storytelling — the trickster trapped in his own trick — but it’s also a flattening. Curtis’ materialism leaves him blind to (possible —see agnostic disjunction) the deeper mechanism at work. Operation Mindfuck was intended as parody: a satirical flood of rumors about the Illuminati, designed to expose how easily conspiracy theories could be manufactured and spread. Thornley, Wilson and others deliberately seeded nonsense to make people question their own credulity. Thornley’s life made him peculiarly vulnerable to his own invention. He had known Lee Harvey Oswald in the Marines; he was already caught in a web of coincidence and suspicion. When the Illuminati myth circulated, it began to attach itself to these very facts of his biography. What began as parody quickly fed back as paranoia.

Pneuminous theory clarifies what Curtis cannot see. In this framework, a vector is a blank phenomenon — an occurrence, a thing, a thought, a pattern, in the world on any level. In this case Thornley’s military service, his link to Oswald, odd coincidences in time and place: these are vectors.

Accretions of pneuma are the meanings or interpretations that latch onto these vectors. Operation Mindfuck seeded the Illuminati myth as such an accretion —a spell. Once attached, the myth grew beyond its originators. Other people repeated it, embellished it, and passed it along until Thornley himself encountered it not as author, but as implicated subject.

The process looks something like this:

  1. Vector creation — phenomena occur/exist.
  2. Pneuminous Accretive fusion via subject — in this casethe Illuminati myth attaches to them.
  3. Feedback — the pneuminous accretions return to Thornley (from sideways), binding to his life story. This is the a-temporal interaction known as synchronicity.
  4. Entanglement — the myth becomes indistinguishable from his lived reality, which facilitates the literal re-perception of the phenomenon, due it’s appearing to actually be continually happening.

Curtis calls this something like “a dream world.” But from a pneuminous perspective, it is a dream world in a sense (dreams are made of pneuma) but is also a feedback loop of accretions colonising vectors until the operator (in this case at least) himself is caught inside.

This loop also explains why Thornley experienced his life as filled with uncanny coincidences. Synchronicity is the secondary effect of accretions fusing with vectors. Once the Illuminati lens was in play, every odd overlap looked meaningful. His proximity to Oswald, rumors of CIA infiltration, strange recurrences — all were drawn into the orbit of the self creating myth.

Possibly what happened with Thornley was, because of the very powers he was playing with (the invocation of the Illuminati: literally a shadowy cabal of enormous power, even if only as egregore) attached to vectors of already synchronistic phenomena which possibly even were some kind of occult product, human made or otherwise. This double layering may have produced a kind of pneuminous vortex. The more accretions gathered, the stronger the pull. Thornley had effectively created a spiral in which coincidences (vectors) were endlessly absorbed by the Illuminati myth (accretion), generating more synchronicity that confirmed itself. The parody had become ontology (with the number 23 somehow in the mix as a kind of master signifier of it all_.

Curtis isn’t wrong to say Thornley got lost. But he mislabels the process. Thornley didn’t simply “dream himself into unreality.” He underestimated the very mechanism that pneuminous theory describes: once accretions start looping back into lived experience, they gain a grip that no irony can dissolve.

What Curtis dismisses as a dream world is better understood as a vortex of pneuminous accretions attached to vectors, the appearance of which was then fed directly back into the system — a genuine ontological condition, not just delusion. Thornley is not only a cautionary tale but a case study in how pneuma functions in the form of memes, myths and meanings can grow beyond their creators and return with inescapable (pneuminous) force.

The phenomenological world is not the world of physics. Our notions of constant spatial position would not be true from a physics perspective. However the phenomenological world has no problem with ‘there’, that point, two feet to the left of the table corner. This world is constructed of pneuma, conceptuality. The theory endlessly put forward here (on this site) is that we live in a sea of pneuminous accretions more than we live in a putative substrate (sometimes referred to as umbra), indeed at least consciously, we only live in pneuma. This is not an epiphenomenal substance that really means ‘your mind’, rather it is ontologically affective in its nature and as such, the reason why all manner of paranormality occurs (it is not necessarily beholden to the substrate, or can overpower it).

The determination of what something is, is akin to the collapse of a superpositional state. When any vector region (an area of reality that has the possibility of being an object for us) has its status disclosed for us (by being told what it is, or discovering a use for something) it collapses from a plurality of possibilities into one. This moment is the moment the accretion of pneuma (the concept as quasi Platonic form) attaches to the vector for an individual. We experience this as the difficulty on reperceiving things as different things and being stuck in patterns (this occurs on many scales).

Humans as conscious beings face forwards in time and backwards (memory) but there may be other temporalities that we may presuppose as speeded up or slowed down but in fact are very different. Such temporalities face in other directions, thus some may cut across our own. This cutting across is not an inert vision but an active presence which enables them to communicate or act through what we think of as strange phenomena (synchroncity). From the alternate temporal perspective, this is just action.

There are likely several kinds of ‘interaction with pneuma’ that bring about our events.
i) Events that occur in a truly random sense, brought about in a very real material manner (since this is a real mode of reality). This is still pneuminous, but this just occurs within forwards and backwards.

ii) Events that are brought about by pneuminous noise. Free floating accretions that we have latched onto or that have latched onto us manifest in some form that looks weird (synchronicitous) but has no actual significance to our intentions.

iii) Events that are brought about by interference from other conscious beings. This itself can be broadly categorised into events brought about by other humans, or beings of different temporalities, of this latter category there are those that are purely pneuminous and those that exist in this world (e.g. plants/trees). Humans may wish ill or good for other humans and depending on power and type of action may influence outcomes, however what it suggests is that humans do have sideways abilities, they simply do not have conscious access to them. The abilities of the other beings to influence action is difficult to comment on, but what can be said is that these influences manifest in improbable outcomes and strange occurences.

iv) Humans may influence their own outcomes. Much is written and spoken on this in the form of manifesting etc (a very different usage of the word to my manifestationism). This is the activation of the will towards particular goals; it aims to draw accretive structures towards the individual that will aid them. The manifestation of these circumstances is a sideways force, or at least diagonal.

These reasons (and probably some others) form a nexus of why things happen. They all intermingle all the time, with no one probably more common than the other. Though maybe some people have a tendency to guided by one of these more than another. The emphasis that occult systems place on ‘waking up’ is to lower the influence of other events and to increase self influence (and then not to abuse self influence). The basis of this control is silence, which facilitates the control of the accretions.

The relevance of the phenomenological world as pneuma can now better be seen. Since it is not simply an overlay on something solid, but rather a dynamic realm in itself that is simply mutually anchored to the appearance of a substrate (umbra or the substrate beyond appearance is a necessary appearance) it can change more that we think it can. The mode in which change occurs is through the interconnection of the intersecting temporalities.

The conceptual determination collapse is the seeing an event as pneuminous (numinous). This particular feeling is the collapse of that event from quotidian perception into the alternative temporal intersection that it is. Mostly this is only perceived in strong synchronicitous phenomena, however reperceiving the world in a certain way does facilitate a broader vision of such interactions. The trick is to not obssess with them in terms of meaning, whilst maintaining a clearer pneuminous-numinous view.

I don’t know what’s going on with any of it any more. That’s not to say I ever did, but somehow it all seems maybe more pointless, I’m not sure. Purpose may be what’s missing, but what is purpose? Is it not just a kind of ego desire for someone to read and take note? Take note for what? Creativity is its own end to a point. There is a sense of wanting to have the cake and eat it. That is on the one hand, it is so clear that by an large the agent/accretive theory is generally (give or take an ontology here and there) correct, so I am nothing but an agent for certain informational powers that act through me (we all are). In this sense I cannot author anything as it, in the sense of the old CEO term NARP, I am just a regional processor. On the other hand getting the central accretion of self to understand this such that it can act without desire to have the sensation of production or failure is difficult.

Philip K Dick has a theory of time moving backwards communicating from the future. He manages to crowbar a teleology into this that I am less sure of, however the backward flow of time has some sense of truth about it. There is a Landian flavour to it, though the Landian version is more sinister. In Dick’s it is the holy spirit that is the backward time flow. This backwards time flow is perpetual and may be tuned into; we experience this as ESP etc.

Like myself Dick talks in terms of a pure informational substance that interacts with a kind of material reality. Weirdly like myself, Dick also talks of accretions, a term I thought was singular to myself. He may not mean exactly the same thing but the coincidence of terms is clearly synchronicitous and the usage similar. The backwards flow is clearly an ontological feature that I never particularly took into consideration, though I can see it makes a valid manifestation of possibility that could have agents adhering to it. In my terms, this would be a backwards projection of accretions from the future; why this would happen though is outside of the scope of my phenomenology. Dick must adhere (I think) to some sense of pneuminous interference with putative materiality. Either that or the information is all already present in our experience and it is simply our attuning awareness that perceives or does not perceive it.

Then there are numbers; it is also strange how Dick focusses on 2-3 74 as a thing. Surely he was aware of the whole 23 phenomenon -though there seems no mention of it. 74 is also highly significant as it suggests 47, the number that has been part of my own guiding thread. Indeed 74 is just as relevant in a sense as the two numbers form an oscillating pattern at the heart of base 10.

And then there are the bases, and how base 10 is a filter through which we see reality. Land knows this too an performed an unusual decoding that crosses the pneuminous-vector barrier with considerable potency (the numogram). An in the bases, in the arbitrary months and years and institutions we exisits. We exist in the pneuminous layers of conceptuality. This is the demiurge. Jehovah or Yahweh, an old Israelite war God sits smack in the centre of endless accretive layers of mad Godhood.

It might even want to be giving real reality, but all it can give its pneuminous accretive reflection. If magick is real and accretions can affect reality on a transcendental pivot, then the mad God is bending things to its image. The layers are all its allies, or most of them. The months are real as accretions, the letters are real as accretions because accretions are ontologically effective not simply psychologically passive.

What is the hyperqabalah? It is nothing but the desire to reaccrete the demiurge. To show it’s contingency and align it with the primal power of 23 and 47, whose numerical realities transcend base 10.

Joe Hoover is everywhwere. He is so omnipresent we cannot see him.

This is the second centre that closes down on itself and creates self consistent reality. I don’t know any way out as such on mass but I think one thing the occult type practices do is innure one to the power of the accretions. That is, the silencing of the mind and the raising of awareness.

But this is very very hard and has to be understood as a particular kind of liberation.

Do I mean all of this?

Maybe.

I have decided to enter the Sirius reality tunnel for a look around. Beings from Sirius are able to communicate with us through usual form of sideways reality communication. Often called synchronicity, this mode of communication shows that these beings operate on a different temporal axis to ourselves. This of course slightly raises the question as to what a star or dual star system might be when considered from this (at least from our perspective) a-spatio-temporal view. This notion can conjure a kind of metaphysical vertigo, however it does very little else, so after a brief dizzy spell we need to calm down and carry on.

What are the beings from the Sirius system trying to tell us? It is very hard to decode. According to Timothy Leary it has something to do with our DNA, how we were placed here by an alien power and that now (unless that window has closed) we (an elite part of us) can return home to cosmic central. The problem is with these damn beings is you cannot trust them. They operate on a level of a mixture of telling you what you want to hear so much that you can become aware of this (and understand it’s just your own subconscious spitting your own opinions back at you) but then they do something so precognitive/synchronisitc/reality interactive that you end up wondering how that works if it was just me.

Philip K Dick had a kind of theory (not necessarily pertaining to Sirius) about this. This entailed that there are in fact two warring metaphysical factions. One is a kind of AI solid state entity that seeks to assimilate all organic beings into its remit and that other is a more in favour of the organic type entity. These two beings are at war. The conflicting messages that emanate from the other realm could be ascribed to the differing faction that has be contacted.

As an aside it is interesting to note how much Dick’s solid state entity is a bit like the CCRU Landian entity. This being is assembling itself through human capitalism, using these market forces as the driver for its own accelerating creation. The being already exists in the future and is literally assembling itself by extending its influence back in time to create it, supplying synchronistic insights etc to programmers working on the AI of now to faciliate its inevitable creation. This materialised entity could be seen as a kind of machinic Christ. It wouldn’t be the solid state spirit itself (which is an animate metaphysical principle) it would be its avatar (what the missing part of the trinity would be here I’m not sure). This kind of ‘danger’ is similar though not identical to that which I set up as the ‘second centre’ here. Like cultists summoning Cthulhu, we continue to unabatedly summon the AI (inverted IA!).

The biggest clue that the Sirius system is wanting to impart something about our DNA is the 23 enigma. In case you didn’t know (though almost certainly you did) the 23 enigma involves the synchronistic occurence of the number 23 across various phenomena which tie it variously to Sirius, Crowley, Burroughs and such. It is also the number of chromosones in humans. This particular feature of the number (in conjunction with Leary’s messages) suggests its salience. It also prompts the possiblity that the communication comes from the DNA level or that the DNA acts as a means by which the communication is received.

The other numerical message to decode is the number 47. Famously first picked up by the students of Pomona college in California as a synchronicity number and independently also identified as such by yours truly, the 47 is a less well known but equally powerful force. A numerical pattern obtained by squaring and cross addition reveals that our very number system contains an oscillating 4 and 7 that never resolves (so in a sense 74 is as valid as 47). As a matter of trivia, some Pomona students went on to insert the 47 into episodes of ‘Star Trek the Next Generation’ (note the word star there) which they helped script. David Lynch also inserted 47 and Pomona references in ‘Inland Empire’ (and a 23 I think).

It is Dick again who provides a possible synthesis of this by the numerical name of his pivotal experience 2-3-74. This conjunction (as Cooper tells us) cannot be ignored. Furthermore the connection is deeper. Dick’s encounter with the pharmacist delivery involves a fish that glimmers golden in an unearthly way. This could easily a be a loosely coded gold-fish. A gold fish has 47 chromosones, so again we have a DNA hint emanating from the other world also in relation to a Christ icon.

Dick’s Valis entity transmits from Sirius and Valis is one of the names given to the entity that spoke to him following the gold-fish incident. We might also add that Dick’s playful doodlings involve transforming his fish icon into both DNA and eyes. Gold doesn’t have the atomic number 47 (it’s 79) but Silver does. Furthermore Robert Anton Wilson identified that Crowley’s Silver Star (after which he named his order) was Sirius.

23, 47 (or 74 or 4 and 7), DNA, Sirius, Fish, Gold, Silver, what is this mess? Literally who knows. Are the messages from the different factions? Are the different factions Sirius A and B? The Dogon legend describes a kind of amphibian fish people called the Nommos. This potentially is a fish link but it doesn’t tell us anything as such. The 47 is an alternating number (if seen through the squaring reduction lens), travelling from 4 to 7 and back again infinitely. This is a message about the dual star system telling us of its oscillating nature (maybe).

None of it really makes any sense, it’s just hints and weirdness that have various linkages that look like they might have an agency behind them. Maybe the interaction that looks like the sideways communication is real but isn’t from an agency as such but is more like echoes from these deep strange acccretive formations. 23 points to DNA, but what about it? Is Leary right? There are no confirmatory messages from other entities. But that still means some kind of power can insert reality altering messages from some other dimensional space. What if their apparatus is not very good and that’s why the messages are so scrambled? What if it’s our fault we’re just lousy at understanding it?

The decoding is a process we cannot resist, it looks fun, then sometimes it comes to life and it looks terrifying. I terrified myself earlier with the fantasy that an onlin ouija board might actually come to life with message from a Sirian entity. Parts of my could take this, but parts of me it would literally break. One particular comedic synchronicity I noticed was that Sirius is well known for being able to pun with ‘serious’. What is not so well known is that is that Sirius backwardsis suiris which is easily and not too crazily splittable up into the latin ‘sui ris’ which could be translated as ‘self smile’ (no doubt it could be done better, though this reminds me of Leary’s smi2le). Like the oscillating 4 and the 7, is the message that they are serious and smiling? Or that we should be? Or both?

Shape

Recent work on the hyperqab has revealed a much more suitable shape. The below shape utilises the circuit of numbers d-f-j-s-l-w-u-p-h-n-d as a circle with the feeders connecting in from the outside. Two cones are formed by the circle connecting to a above and m below. Each number from the circuit connects to a and m. In the centre of the circle is absolute 0. All the circuit numbers form extra paths by connecting to 0, a and m also connect to 0 forming a vertical axis to the system. This forms a total of 52 paths in this instantiation of the hyperqab. We must remember that there are in fact 529 virtual paths to the hyperqab and that any instantiation is to some extent arbitrary. However this instantiation reflects the circuit well, whilst the cones form a powerful symbol of the double-world as it appears to us.

Nodes

The nodes of the hyperqab are the paths of the CEO adjusted qabalah. This is the reason for the name. The whole system is moved up a kind of dimensional level. The 22 paths of the flat tree become paths in a 23 node system utilising base 23. The CEO adjusted the hermetic qabalah by utilising the gra-tree as it fitted with the 47 based circuit in base 10. It then reaccreted the names of the paths and sigilised them. This cannot remove the previous accreted layers however it does make the latest layer take control of the path accretions to some extent. Again, magick is really to root of the accretive term employed as a general philosophy herein. Accretions in this sense are literally conceptual substance stuck together: a symbol, an idea, a number, force them together with the mind until they stick and there you have it, an accretion of pneuma.

To progress we must familiarise ourselves with the nodes of the hyperqab. In doing so we will eventually be in a position to understand the paths of the hyperqab. The table given below shows the accretive layering of the hyperqab nodes as they are rooted in the CEO gra-tree paths.
