Portals — passages between worlds

portal

In the continuous fabric of the Worlds, as we have already discussed, there are places of least stability. Most often this instability is tied to currents of Power — the imprints left by events that are magically significant and occurred in those locations. In other words, a magical event typically destabilizes the Threshold of the Worlds, and that instability can endure for a long time. Such artificially created passages between worlds are traditionally called Portals.

There are also Portals created by non‑human beings — inhabitants of the World‑Tree system — Gods, Alvs, or Primal Ancestors.

The duration of a Portal’s existence depends on the Power invested in its creation, since the fabric of the Threshold of the Worlds is restored by the Keeper of the Rift. He — in his fearsome guise as the Wild Hunter — pursues beings not native to that world.

Since ancient times Magi have sought out, found, and used Portals to travel between worlds. A Portal is not a direct passage, however. It is only a place of instability; the actual passage opens with a particular key at a set time. Keys to Portals can be special spells, objects, people, or actions. In addition, under certain combinations of circumstances (threshold times, astronomical configurations, weather conditions), many Portals open spontaneously for a short time.

Unlike trance crossings between worlds, passage through a Portal can be accomplished with a waking mind and a physical body. Since the keys to most Portals have been lost, many Magi prefer to locate them and pass through using a well‑developed Vedogon.

What happens when one crosses a Portal? First of all, every Portal has two elements: one leading from our world into the Interworld, and one leading from the Interworld into another world. In other words, any transition between worlds cannot bypass the Interworld; however, in the case of a Portal, usually, the exit into the Interworld and the subsequent entry are close to each other. This, however, did not prevent many inexperienced Magi — after passing only the first part of a Portal — from becoming stranded in the Interworld and, over time, turning into an Utukku.

Yet the Interworld is the least of the dangers involved in crossing. Far more dangerous is what happens upon entering another world. Because the energies of all worlds differ substantially (this being the basis of their separation), as soon as a being from one world (in our case a traveling Magus) arrives in another, forces of dissolution begin to act upon him — much as a drop of ink disperses in a glass of water. This means that the longer a Magus remains in another world, the harder it becomes to preserve his self‑identity without dissolving into that world’s energy. Subjectively, such dissolution may be experienced in different ways. In some worlds it leads to the Magus’s death; in others it causes him to forget who he is and whence he is, merging with the native inhabitants of that world. Similar cases also occur in our world when a being from another world, having crossed a Portal and ended up here, forgets who it is and where it came from and, more often than not, is admitted to a psychiatric clinic where, after a course of rehabilitation, it comes to consider itself human, having simply forgotten its past.

Therefore it is vital for a Magus crossing a Portal to return in time — before the Portal closes or the Power of the other world dissolves him. If the Magus observes the necessary caution, the experience gained from such a crossing cannot be overstated.

  1. Do magicians travel in groups – if one gets lost/forgotten, can the others pull them back home?

  2. Is it possible to get lost at all while being in a group? Then that wasn’t a group, probably? Either everyone got lost, or everyone made it out?

  3. Is there any analogue of the ‘Ariadne’s thread’ for traveling between worlds?

    • Yes, there are ways to increase the likelihood of returning; they involve establishing a strong connection with the exit point, so that then, using this connection, it’s easier to find the way back.

  4. …sometimes, over time, you start to remember that you are actually from the future… and you feel that over time your ‘power’ begins to grow, and in dreams, you can influence events in the continuum you are in. And you also start to change, meaning that biologies time gives you a kind of ‘rollback of the scenario,’ as in a computer program, and a person who should be, say, nearly 50 appears to be 25-28 years old (only everyone in life avoids them, and usually, no one perceives such people), have you encountered such cases?

  5. Question..
    What if… this point… alva… is within the person… and they don’t need to search for any… portals… does this sound familiar to you…

      • Enmerkar, could you write an article about “not quite” people? Your articles contain a couple of sentences on this, but I would like something more detailed.

  6. Question. What if you look younger and your interests are quite specific (not age-related). For the last several years, I have only read good fantasy and esotericism. Music – only classical and folk, a bit of rock.) And I can occasionally command my body to do something or, on the contrary: to stop doing something. I relate to society somewhat ‘sideways.’ I engage in meditation and practices. But at the same time, I have no dreams, high intelligence, complete absence of astral visualization, and a normosthenic build. Now I am a free, non-earning artist. Since childhood, I have been plagued by the question: ‘Why am I here?’ And constant dissatisfaction with myself, my disorganization, the loss of time. Is something wrong with me?

  7. It just took me very indirect paths to lead me to this road… There was the first School, I graduated. There was the second School, distance learning. I only managed to complete the first course there and hit a ‘wall’. A complete lack of astrological visualization, and without it, they don’t teach there. Then – a meeting with a ‘seer’. I asked, he helped, opened the missing chakras. He said that intelligence and a mess of knowledge in my head interfere, but I can’t just suddenly become less smart and forget everything… He also said that I have something like claircognizance, but until there is AB, he cannot teach me either. So what should I do with all this now? Maybe you could advise me on something?

    • I am hearing for the first time that the study of Magic depends on ‘AB’. I personally know more than one practicing magician who achieved a significant level of Power without any ‘AB’, or rather, without the visualization of perception. Different people differ in their ability to visually perceive images, but the absence of an image does not mean the absence of perception.

  8. The distance learning school I mentioned is Petersburg’s ‘Atlantis’. The ‘seer’ has been practicing healing for 30 years without any advertising. Perhaps the necessity of ‘AB’ is explained by the peculiarities of their teaching method… So, should I search further?

  9. And how can one try to remember what happened 15-17 years ago? Where was I for some time, possibly not in this world? Without hypnosis. This question still torments me sometimes. Can you suggest something? Thank you in advance for any answer.

    • Try an old simple method – look into a crystal vessel with water between two candles. Just make sure it’s quiet and no one distracts you.

  10. I believe you have already learned everything that may be useful to you in this school.

  11. Lately, I have come to the conclusion that it is necessary to learn to see portals and to learn to move through them. Life is rushing by quickly, and knowledge is lacking. Maybe in other dimensions, one can learn faster. Recently, I had a dream of moving to another time but quickly returned. Only the impression remained. It seems that one can only become immortal by moving. If there is someone who can share knowledge, please respond. I would be grateful to all seekers foton73@list.ru.

    • “Fedy, any training in Magic is not like going to a store. It is a long and painstaking continuous work on oneself, changing one’s attitude towards Life and opening up a different perspective on oneself and the surrounding world. Strive, seek, do, and you will find.”

  12. Hello, I am addressing everyone who knows, has heard, or can suggest. I am looking for a way to the past, or influence the situations of the past. I am willing to sacrifice many things, I ask for a response.

      • Inna, you are right… only Therapy implies the presence of an experienced Therapist, while the readers here want to try to do something themselves.

        Enmerkar is not against it (as far as I understand), so I will share a slightly corrected quote.

        “If there are those who wish to return and gather what has been lost, correct what is crooked, improve what is good, let’s talk about how to return.
        To go back – you just have to Go Back :), yes, it is that simple. We move “forward” all our lives, even when we are running sideways :), that is, energetically, we direct ourselves forward from our body… where do we look when we fantasize or make plans for the future?… yes, forward from the body.

        To return back – there is one fun preparatory Exercise.
        Do you remember, when going to sleep, it is useful to recall the day lived? So, try remembering the day lived – backwards. That is, you lie down and recall, as if you are rewinding a movie in reverse order… you move backwards, doing everything the opposite… you start “rewinding” from the moment you lie down in bed… and if there is enough Strength and Attention – you rewind to the morning awakening moment. Some everyday processes will surprise you, for example, eating and drinking in reverse order – quite fascinating.
        So, having trained this way, you will acquire, if not a Skill, then a small Experience in Moving Backwards. The better you master this skill, the more effectively you can work in the next phase.

        The next step will actually be Moving Back.
        Sit down, relax, dim the lights… and move from your own body backward. Gain speed and do not stop… The flight backward should be directed just along your Life Path… that is, along those “rails” you have laid all your life. In fact, it is as difficult to get off track as it is for a train to leave its rails… just do not get distracted 🙂
        The first checkpoint is a flash of light, with simultaneous breaking through a “barrier”. After this, stop and look around… or you can continue moving a bit more…. along that life you have entered. Usually, you will be “pulled/stopped” by the most significant event of the past life.

        The indicator of the reality of your journey – will be primarily feelings/emotions. They will not be the same, not like in this life… there you were different… and the internal settings of that personality differ from today’s. Also – likely old wounds/damage will be exacerbated… be ready for this.

        Do not rush to change something right away…. by no means, do not indulge in it…. this is not a brawl in your own fantasies… and not a battle of mages in the astral…. Remember, that the Past/Present/Future is one line and changes in one lead to changes in another.”

        Also, I will add – all changes are Paid… it’s better to think and reconsider seven times.

        • Well, it happened. This was my question under the nickname Rozz a few years ago. And there was a flash of light, and the wounds flared up. Was it the same for you? Such a detailed description.

  13. One can also recommend a re-review, but it will take more than one year of life. If it is a matter of life and death, then it is better to let them search for a therapist, or rather a guide, because it takes skill to work alone.

  14. There is such an opinion: you should not run back and change something; you should try to take responsibility for the past.

  15. Without Responsibility, nothing will work out. Changing the past is not a panacea; to really change and transform your life, a Complex of measures is needed… this could be written in treatises, but I lack the motivation to write treatises 🙂

    Rozz,
    about the Price for intervention, much has already been written by Enmerkar… I just want to emphasize that in real work everything happens according to “laws of the real.” You cannot just walk into a store and eat a bun without paying for it. You might say – one can steal… but a thief pays with their cunning, skill, and risk… they spent time and energy honing their skills, that is their price. Those who pay with money for a bun also spent their time and energy earning money… so everyone pays one way or another. The most expensive price is for a mistake… therefore I recommend studying for several years, rather than breaking, changing, and constructing in haste.

    Also, it is worth noting that working in “personal past” is closely related to Awareness. To study your past one needs to be aware. To correct mistakes in your past – you need to realize both the mistakes themselves and, necessarily, their reasons… however, successful work in one’s past positively affects your awareness and health and other significant and important little things 🙂

    • Thank you. You haven’t clarified the fee for changes at all. Can you provide an example, such as how it was before, how it is now, and what the fee is?

      • A simple example: “N” has heroic health but occasionally experiences liver pain (his lifestyle is completely healthy and does not imply…). “N” has fragmentary “memories” from his previous life, where his death was most likely sudden. As a result of a “journey” into his “past” with an experienced guide, “N” is convinced that the shard that hit his liver was the cause of his “past” death and is obviously the cause of his current unpleasant/painful sensations. After “correcting” the situation in the past, citizen “N” is completely unconcerned about his liver… it’s been about three years now 🙂 The price – the strength and time of the “guide” + the strength and time of “N” himself.

  16. Dear Enmerkar, can discrepancies in memories (of the most diverse events with the most diverse participants) indicate such a ‘forgotten all guest’? Have there been cases when the dissolved ‘it’ began to notice somehow that ‘something is not right here’? Thank you.

  17. I read it, very interesting. But do you really mean to say that someone can actually pass through portals in a physical body? And not in the astral? So many methods have been developed and collected in libraries, and all of them imply astral travel rather than physical passage. Is it really possible to try transitioning to another world in a natural way? I would like to give it a try.

  18. “When a being from another world crosses the Portal and finds itself here, it forgets who it is and where it comes from.” … That is, the being from another world looks like a human? And possesses speech?

  19. In general, we need to negotiate with the Guardians that there are, and get out of here. I’m tired of it.

    • It is not a fact that fleeing will help solve problems. You cannot escape from yourself. And perhaps even in another world, you will have to solve the same problems as here. If you want to change the world, you must start by changing yourself. I too wanted to flee to another world not so long ago. But I realized that this is not an option. I will not run away. I will solve all the problems and tasks here, using all the opportunities, and only then will I leave. As a winner, not a fugitive.

  20. I am interested in the possibility of returning to the past and changing (reversing) an event! That is, not reviewing, not changing attitudes. And it is necessary to enter not into your past life, but exactly into your past! If anyone has information, thank you in advance!

    • Veronica, nothing perfect can be reversed. You cannot unsee, unhear, etc. 🙂
      Disharmonic events can be compensated, it is possible to some extent. The so-called “review” and “changing the attitude” are quite effective parts of actions to minimize the influence of the “negative” past on your wonderful present. In addition, it makes sense to think about compensatory real (manifest) actions. For example, having chopped down a tree once, ideally, you should not only “level” this situation in your inner world but also plant a dozen trees in the external world:)

      • You can separate your consciousness from what you heard, saw, break the connections, the effect will be the same as if it happened not to you, but to another person. In this sense, I also use the phrase “unsee it back.”

        • Veronica, I have information that in the pursuit of miraculous recipes for returning to the past, one can lose the unique opportunity to create the present and future right now.
          As I understand it, getting into the past and reversing event A is necessary so that event B becomes possible in the present.
          You can perform event C in the present and not just one – it’s best to plant trees by dozens, which will be the reason for event B in the future – the coming present.
          Although sometimes there’s impatience to embody now, to actualize in future embodiments…
          But I am curious, what are you willing to pay for such a visit to the past?

          • I am willing to pay any price, I am ready to give half my life!
            In my case, if I do not change the event in the past, I have no present and no future.
            And for what purpose are you interested?

    • As far as I know, this is impossible.
      The past cannot be changed. You can change the imprint of past energy within yourself and in the Akashic Chronicles, and the changes will already reflect on the present, meaning the past event will seemingly be re-recorded.
      If I am wrong, let me be corrected.

      How it happens is well described by Amenphotep above.
      To re-record – you enter into your past, “reshoot the film” about the event with your participation, experience it anew in the past. Attach it to the present.

      • Theo, anything is possible) But not within the framework of the physical system, as events here are strictly fixed in space (as are our bodies), and time has a materialization in numbers (subjective materialization in the head – past, present, future). Even if a scientist invents a time machine and finds himself in the past, leaving some modern trinket there, for the Universe, this will not be news, as this event is recorded in its coordinate system. This happened because it had to happen; otherwise, he wouldn’t have invented the machine. Changes to events are impossible on a physical level.
        But we are not only a physical plan) A person as a macrocosm can manage his time, but only his own. He has his own memory bank – an archive, with which he can work, he can manage the speed of time – speeding up and slowing down relative to his external flow, building his own event map (Weird), “review”, and other management of what you write about. This is not just a human level but a human with power, and the more magical power, the finer the perception, the greater this ability.
        But there is another level; if our Universe becomes a microcosm for a person, and he is the Demiurge)) But even then, the laws of our Universe are above the Demiurge – the law of interconnection, the law of hierarchy of systems, purposes, etc. For the Demiurge, our goals have no value (as long as the system works), and if something is to be changed, it is not one event but an entire chain. One thing is if this chain is not particularly fixed for upper systems (such a Weird of the Demiurge) and another matter if this event is especially important (as if it were Orleg), then even Demiurges are not omnipotent. If someone is not satisfied, they can exit from our Universe of Order and return to Chaos, where there is no time or space (they are not fixed), but then you won’t exist either))
        This, theoretically, but practically, there are elements (artifacts, subtle material schemes with programs))) of the Universe you can tune in to on a subtle level (take a little look =). Who knows knows))

        But if a person cannot assess their experience, their lesson, then even the second level is not their level.

  21. In the dark year to you all! Let me know or advise, I have been living with my wife for 2 years, and my daughter is 4 months old. Over the past year, things have been happening that I can only describe as spoilage or the Evil Eye. I’ll explain: everything is going awry, an attempt to hang a picture ended with the drill getting stuck in the wall, and two drills fell apart in my hands, a startup business is going with such creaks and is cracking at the seams, and the most reliable partners turn out to be scammers feeding me long hopes and promises; if I cook something, it usually burns or is raw (although I am a chef-pastry chef by training and can cook with my “eyes closed”), and recently a new trouble: small worms have infested the kitchen, and now the whole kitchen is filled with them, the car broke down, my father fell ill (although I live in Moscow, and he is in the Urals, but I can’t help but think about it) – this is just a tiny fraction of the problems that have occurred over the year. And I want to conduct a ritual to summon/call the spirit of my wife’s lineage (we live in her apartment), I want my wife to ask who and what to do. And return this crap to the person or people who sent it. Tell me, I am afraid for my daughter and wife that if I cannot close the portal, how can the entity behave in the apartment in the future? I want to carry out the ritual in the bathroom.

    • Reconsider your actions on the eve of these ‘awkward’ events; maybe you are doing something you shouldn’t, and the universe itself is ‘pulling you up,’ giving you signs, but you do not want to understand them. Analysis of your actions is needed.

  22. Atom – “a door to other worlds” is always Inside. …………………………………… but there are no single correct words to describe the transition process.

  23. Hello. I am reaching out for your help on how to return to the past or send a message there to prevent an accident. Please respond. Help me if there is such a possibility. If there are specific suggestions, please write to the email address. Thank you very much in advance. I am looking for a magician, sorcerer, a person who possesses such techniques. Help!!! 6941402@ukr.net

    • An accident is karma. And the past is destroyed. Read about the langoliers on the same site: https://en.enmerkar.com/myth/langolery. It will be easier for any master to change your attitude towards what happened, to cool it down, to remove the necro-attachment. But the magic of Chronos does not contradict the general flow of time and the law of cause and effect – that which you seek.

    • Hello. Katya, I already replied above – no way. “Returns to the past” are inspired by science fiction, and they do not happen in the form shown in mass culture. (This contradicts the basic laws of the universe. That is, it is impossible.) If you lost someone as a result of an accident, lost completely, from the dense world, then that’s it.. Next, you either look for them among the inorganic… and somehow incarnate them back here if you really need them here.. or you yourself go out of here and go to them… or interact with them here, as with an inorganic… This is how this world is arranged…

  24. To physically visit other worlds, not in the astral or conscious world. Yes, it’s interesting there, but you don’t feel it. I created portals in lucid dreams. They are a bit difficult to hold in the place you wanted to get to.

  25. So people talk about the future and the past…. but I’m curious if anyone has been to the parallel after death, so to speak, the afterlife? I have after the death of a dear person two experiences, when I came to him in a dream… usually they come… just a few seconds and definitely not a dream, I’m sure. But out of my control. Are there similar stories?

    • Yes, I have… In 2018, shortly before this comment. I didn’t even know about the OS, astral, etc… On the third day, I came to my deceased grandfather; the connection with him was strong. Even when he died, in a dream, I felt what he felt. Then I visited him for another month, and then it eased… But I became interested in what was happening to me, I started to develop, and there were portals and exits from the body, but to the same dream plane. I saw snippets of past lives, memories, a bit of other worlds… Then I gradually got tired of it, and it became less frequent. But to this day I periodically become aware. Nowadays, I don’t put in efforts, hence no exits… Recently, I had a prophetic dream, warning me about my mother’s death; we were no longer that close… and now she’s gone. I’m waiting to see if she will come… but maybe the lost consciousness, so to speak, she drank heavily…

  26. Dear Enmerkar, have you encountered such Portals? And can such places be identified by any signs? For example, if in a forest, a certain area has twisted and oddly shaped trees?

    • Yes, I have encountered them.
      But a Portal does not always have ‘external’ signs. And ‘strange’ trees may indicate soil peculiarities, not thinning of the Veil.

      • What are the signs of thinning the veil? And in general, what are the signs of portals?

  27. Does the transition between our world and the buffer involve a thermal wedge? If so, it easily explains all the phenomena related to ancient artifacts and even spontaneous combustion, not to mention many other things. But I haven’t found anywhere whether a thermal wedge exists.

    • One night in the middle of the city, I saw a zone of heavy fog and felt it was better to keep my distance from it. Then I saw a manhole, a sewer cover with an unusual pattern in the same area that next time became ordinary, and soon it was completely paved over.

  28. What a wide response this article has received, Enmerkar. Thank you for systematizing magical knowledge and for the clear explanation; I have been familiar with your blog for more than 15 years.

  29. Good day. Please tell me, does anyone know how to understand if there is a portal and if there is one, how to close it? In one place, it is swarming with either entities or souls, I can’t tell, but it’s just a sea… visible on night vision camera… They appeared relatively recently, I don’t know what to expect…
