It is a sublime process of transformation through which you begin to receive knowledge in your own personal note, and the manner and quantity you receive depend solely on you. The decision to continue on this path of knowledge, the duration, and the way you do it are entirely up to you. Initiation does not obligate you to anything; you have no obligation to anyone but yourself, in the sense of recognizing and experiencing your feelings. Once you have gone through an initiation, this unique and personal act, you will encounter other people who have experienced the same thing, with whom you can share ideas, feelings, and experiences because you will speak a common language.
Initiation is a process of transformation because it is carried out through the mediation of sigils by the trainer who leads the initiation procedure.
All you need to do is to be as relaxed, calm, and open-minded as possible. These things shouldn’t require any special effort from you; however, it’s good to follow some preliminary recommendations such as:
Choosing the location: It’s advisable to choose a secluded place where you won’t be disturbed by anyone during the Initiation, without noise and in complete silence. Sit on a comfortable chair or lie down in bed. Relax. You can say a prayer if you want, or you can focus on what you feel during the initiation procedure. Close your eyes and empty your mind of thoughts. Breathe normally, effortlessly, relaxed. Focus on what you feel with your whole body, with your being. Stay relaxed until the end of the initiation procedure. These are some recommendations that can make your initiation experience unique and enjoyable.
Sometimes there are isolated cases where individuals claim to feel nothing during initiation. This happens only because they have focused their attention on completely different subjects and have forgotten about the initiation, or they expect the initiation to be like a train hitting them or a direct punch in the face, or to feel the same as other people. Wrong! Initiation is a direct and personal process, and there is no mandatory recipe for feeling or seeing something. However, if the initiation was conducted by an accredited trainer, it always takes place, and its effects can be seen both immediately and over time.
It is advisable to monitor your life after going through an initiatory process to see and notice new patterns of reporting, behaviors, thoughts, or different emotions.
Tip: Take notes of what you felt, saw, or heard during the initiation; it can help you better understand yourself in the future and understand the processes you are going through.
