Thought Forms
Author: Bob Makransky
Publisher: Dear Brutus Press
Category: Magic - Astrology Level: Intermediate
 Thought Forms is the sequel to Bob Makransky’s award-winning Magical Living, and it continues the hands-on instruction in how to make magic really work begun in the earlier book. To make magic work it is first necessary to clear out any subconscious agendas which may be obstructing you. Magic doesn’t trump karma – you can cast all the spells and do all the abundance visualizations you want to, but if in your heart of hearts you feel unworthy of wealth, it isn’t going to happen for you. To make magic really work it is necessary to dig into your subconscious, and objectively examine (and change) what’s going on down there.
Thought Forms begins with a discussion of different psychological types depending upon on the position of Mercury in your natal horoscope (no astrological knowledge is assumed of the reader, and complete tables and instructions to find out which type you are, are given in the back of the book) . The different types have been conditioned by society in different ways, and they therefore have different spiritual problems to deal with.
The second chapter of Thought Forms digs into the psychology of social conditioning: how society has misled you from your true feelings and fooled you into identifying yourself with, and defending, its belief systems (thought forms) instead. Modern society is by its very nature stressful: the way our society keeps itself together is by chaining everyone to an unending treadmill of dissatisfaction, and having them constantly pick at themselves and each other. Only by liberating yourself from your obsessive thought forms of shame (fearing other people’s disapproval) and glory (craving other people’s attention) can you find true joy and fulfillment. If you think you have heard it all regarding the female sexual role, male macho dominance or homosexual stereotyping, read this section to open your mind to another connection!
The third chapter of Thought Forms describes the theory underlying magic. What we call everyday life – or the so called “real” world – is actually a specialized form of dreaming. What makes it seem so solid and “real” is your constant, moment-to-moment thinking every second you are awake. If you stop that thinking, or at least slow it down, then the world becomes a lot more dreamlike; and magical things start happening for you.
The final chapter gives detailed instructions for banishing thought forms that are hanging you up; doing creative visualization; defeating black magicians (other people who bring you down) ; and casting out any demons that may be possessing you (in our society lots of people are demon-possessed, so it never hurts to put that question to yourself) . The final section explains how to use tree spirits to prop up your intent and sense of self-esteem, instead of relying on the back-patting and approval of other people.
