Drawing Energy Latent in the Psychic Collective
Sometimes I really wonder about all this stuff that I study and shit. Is it because I do drugs? Or is the fact that I study this shit that I fried my brain? Oh well who cares. I do drugs. I like the occult. Anyway.....

What images/icongraphy/cultures are you drawn to?
Get statues of certain dieties representing your goals, creed and qualities.
What certain animals represent you or your goals
Create an area to place them (alter or personal space)
Find "tools" that would help you reach whatever goal you see before you, the whole chalice of wine and incense burning thing.
Affirm verbally, silently, symbolically you're willing for the items to act as guides, watchers, will them into living form.
Take notice of subtle changes the fucking area
Nightly take 10-20 minutes to affirm their presence.

Note; As you continue doing this, you might not actually need the figures. At least that came to happen with me. As with any practice, I have found that much less tools and crap is needed with time and patience. Of course, because this does not go for everyone, does not mean that they are practicing the wrong way, or are not as potent.

Added 10-5-07- There are other ways of gaining energy, and also certain types. The egregores (or servators) that are specialized emanations of a group or yourself must be fed to grow in strength and ability. They act as a body in a place that you are not. Through them if fed, you may tap into their home-field or their environment. You may gather more of them by coaxing free floating essences to stay within(and not dissapating), exhale into them your life, share with them your being. As long as you remember to tap into what you have created, there more it will do. Practice indeed makes perfect even in the occult.
I was watching TV one day (surprizing huh?) and I happened to run across a show on Discovery about a traveling magician. I could not catch his name but he can compete with Chris Angel and perhaps beat him. However, he did present one way that he gains energy. No matter how weird this sounds, he practices holding his breath until his body is tricked into releasing more hormones, producing more blood, the works. I tried it with little but enough result. I had been tired but no more, colors seemed brighter, my thoughts were clearer and more penetrating.
It tricks the body into releasing spinal fluids and endorphins.
