Spiritual Personality and Astral Projection

In follow-up to my previous post, I should also add that I don't hold by the school of thinking which teaches that energy centers open up in progression from root to crown like chakras as one develops spiritually. In my thinking and experience, my power center will always be Yesod. In my way of thinking, one's power center for astral projection is not tied to development but to the wholistic constellation of sefirotic configuration particular to that person's psychospiritual energetic arrangement - similar to the way each person has a unique personality which it feels as "self."

Mugwort Incense Blend 1

The following mugwort incense blend actually worked (in terms of astral projection) even though I was playing when I made it last night because my internet service provider was having technical problems, again.

1/8 cup mugwort
1/2 tsp organic rosemary
1/4 tsp cinnamon (ground)
1/2 tsp frankincense resin
1/4 tsp myrrh resin

The frankincense and myrrh were added last to the mortar after the other ingredients had been first ground and mixed. Throughout the grinding and mixing procedure, I frequently put the pestle down and mixed the ingredients using my fingers.

I burned only a very small portion of the final mixture on bamboo charcoal, in a censer.

Vital statistics:

mugwort - feminine, planet/venus, element/earth
rosemary - masculine, planet/sun, element/fire
cinnamon - masculine, planet/sun, element/fire
frankincense - masculine, planet/sun, element/fire
myrrh - feminine, planet/moon, element/water

The smoke from the incense is representative of the element of air.
