Lesson 19B: Arcanum A.Z.F.

• Sexual magic is practiced in the inner (hidden) circle of all religions, as well as in all the authentic Schools of Initiation.
• In earlier times, the key of sexual Alchemy was the most strictly kept secret of the Schools of Mysteries.
  • In order to reveal it to a disciple, he must first have completed the Minor Mysteries and awakened his Consciousness.
  • When the Age of Aquarius began (04-02-1962) the White Brotherhood gave to V.M. Samael Aun Weor the mission to publicly reveal the Great Secret.

Arcanum A.Z.F.

• Arcanum means “Secret”
• A.Z.F. means:
  • A = Aqua (Water), Z = Zoostat (Consciousness), F = Fuego (Fire)
  • Fire + Water = Consciousness

Requirements to Practice the Arcanum

• Only a legally formed couple can practice the Arcanum.
• For the Respectable White Brotherhood a legally formed couple means that, a man and a woman:
  • Are sexually united
  • They live in the same house

Practical Details

• Alchemy should not be done when a woman is menstruating.
• Alchemy should not be practiced when a woman is pregnant and for 40 days after giving birth.
• Alchemy should not be practiced when one is ill.
• Magnetic Pause: Alchemy should not be practiced more than once a day.
• About contraception:
  • In alchemy, it is not right to use any method of contraception, whether natural or chemical, or prevention via condom which would make the intercourse unnatural.

The 3 Stages in Alchemy

Preparation

• The best time for alchemical work is at night.
• In the preparation of sexual intercourse, the couple performs in a normal way the corresponding foreplay (caresses, kisses, hugs, etc.), with a lot of tenderness and love.
• Once sufficient lubrication is produced, they can proceed to the sexual union using very gentle movements.

(1) Transmutation

• At this stage we will work with Fire.
• We need:
  • Not to think about other things. We should be focused on what we do, instead.
  • The movements should be slow and controlled.
  • If at any point in the practice we feel that there is a risk of losing the energy, we must withdraw immediately.
• At this stage we can also work with vocalization.
  • The mantra of Alchemy is: I.A.O.
    • When we do the ‘I’ we envision that the energy goes up from the coccyx to the third eye.
    • When we do the ‘A’ we envision energy rising from the coccyx to the lungs.
    • When we do the ‘O’ we envision that energy rises from the coccyx to the heart.
  • If for any reason we can not vocalize the mantras out loud, we should do them mentally.

(2) Death of the “ego”

• At the moment of the maximum temperature we must ask for the death of the ‘ego’.
  • First, both together will ask the Divine Mother to dissolve the ‘ego’ that one of them is working on (e.g. the woman).
  • Then, both together they will ask the Divine Mother for the dissolution of the ‘ego’ that the other (e.g. the man) is working on.
  • If in the couple one of the two is not a Gnostic, then the one who does the death will ask for the dissolution of the “ego” he/she is working on, mentally.

(3) Inspiration

• After the second stage, the fire begins to normally decrease.
  • Remaining united, the couple will now move on to the third stage.
  • Movements slowly stop, since the stage where the couple worked with the Fire, has passed.
• At this stage we will work with the Light.
  • Now we will stabilize in our hearts these energies we transmuted as spiritual Light.
• The method to stabilize the energies is Inspiration.
  • We concentrate on the heart and look for something that inspires us.
• As the fire gradually decreases more and more, at some point the male sexual organ will lose its erection, until the couple separates in a natural way.

After Separation

• If after the practice we feel that there is any energy overplus, we can complete the transmutation lying on our back and vocalizing the mantra: HAM-SAH.
  • We inhale slowly and deeply, raising the energy from the coccyx to the head, mentally vocalizing the mantram: HAAAAAAMMMMMM
  • We exhale quickly, sending the energy from the head to the heart, vocalizing loudly the mantram: SAH.
