Magick, Hypnosis & Marketing

We live our lives in a series of hypnotic states. Sequentially, one after another!

The very best Marketers create states of hypnosis that cause you to buy their products.

Once you understand what Magick and Hypnosis really are you will be able to control your customers and sell them anything you want, if you apply the rules correctly.

They will be powerless to resist!

What is Magick?

It can be defined as 'The Art of causing changes in consciousness to occur in accordance to the will of the 'Artist!
In other words it is a control mechanism over a series of thoughts of the 'target'

Deep Magick has for a long time been misinterpreted and misunderstood in it's practition and it is only recently that it has been rediscovered with the understanding of the mechanism that drives and allows the Magick to occur - that is hypnotism.
A typical example of a modern Magus would be Derren Brown who uses multiple hypnotic techniques to systematically entrance his audience and SELL his ideas or suggestions.

In order to understand Magick you must therefore first understand hypnosis and then at the very least acknowledge your that your lifestate is a series of hypnotic trances that you move through in time and space! As human beings we are constantly trying to break out of the hypnotic trance sequences. In doing so we move from one state to another. The art of the self magus is to control the flow and direction.

Once you've grasped this you will begin to become enlightened! And empowered!

And it is really a pretty simple concept to grasp when you think about it in your own life!

So what is hypnosis?
Most people haven't got a clue what it really is and the common 'look into my eyes' sleep entrancement TV showmanship, is the biggest hurdle in understanding this mind mechanism.

self hypnosis mandela
This is a self hypnotic mandela that if you stare into it for any amount of time will entrance you for the length of you own internal suggestibility.....

So here is the definition of Hypnosis that I like the most, that I've taken directly from a paper I'm going to point you towards...

Hypnosis is a state of 'enhanced' awareness or suggestibility where the mind is totally focused or centred on one activity or idea to the exclusion of everything else including sensory perceptions that are unwanted or distracting from the point of focus.

Still don't beleive it exists?

OK, do you remember driving home tonight or did you do it on auto pilot? - You were in your driving hypnotic trance!

Do you ever really 'get into' a book, film, TV show or even TV advert where you are oblivious to your real time surroundings? - You were in a hypnotic trance.

Oh yeah, and while you've been reading this and trying to understand the points I'm proving - you have been in a hypnotic trance!

Life is a series of hypnotic trances that are either internally or externally generated and terminated.

The later is the realm of the Master Marketer when applied to the crowd!

How not to win the lottery with the Wisdom of Crowds - Derren Brown fakes it!

So we are all gaming Google to get rankings and with the obvious desired outcome of earning money! Right?

OK, today were not going to talk about SERPS or marketing or ranking or any of our other favourite subjects, but I do want to talk about two of my favourite subjects - Fast Money and the Wisdom of Crowds - in relation to.... guessed it yet?

Derren Brown and predicting the winning lottery numbers!

Unless you've been living on the Moon or read this blog from the States, you would be aware that on Wednesday night British illusionist Derren Brown predicted 'successfully' the six winning numbers of the UK National lottery in a live show that was broadcast simultaneously with the live draw.

wisdom of crowds my arse!

Apparantly, although I've not bothered to read any of the rubbish, the British gutter press ( That's all the UK newspapers) have been espousing theories of how he did it, and last night in another live show Mr Brown went on TV to explain how he achieved this success! or did he?

Before we look at the explanation I'd like to point out that Mr Brown has been on our screens every night for the last few weeks with a variety of advert traliers for his new series - The Event - in which he explains and demonstrates through a series of cleverly composed sequences that the new series is about the art of MISDIRECTION.

And that my friends is the where the truth of the matter lies - put into English. Derren Brown DID NOT predict the winning lottery numbers

Oh yes he did we hear you say! we saw it on LIVE TV?

Oh no you didn't I say........and here is why

This is what you saw......

You saw Mr Derren Brown read out LOUD (into his microphone) the numbers of the lottery as they were drawn, and write them down on a piece of cardboard.
You then saw him reveal his chosen numbers that he'd put balls into a tube to represent.
When revealed the balls matched the lottery numbers!

Wow! Derren Brown successfully predicted the National lottery winning numbers - NOT!

Last night Mr Brown went on TV again to 'explain' how he did it. NOT!

Remember his Friday night show is all about misdirection and this was designed to further remove the viewer from the simple truth - the original lie!

So lets look at his explanation as he told it in last nights show....

Derren Brown said he took 24 people and showed them the winning sequence of numbers to date. He then asked them to focus on the numbers and use automatic writing to connect with their 'Ids' and subconciously produce six winning lottery numbers..
He then took these numbers and used 'Wisdom of Crowds' averaging to produce the winning line.

What a load of Bull!

Let's look at this!

Automatic writing has been around for over a hundred a fifty years since the days of Madam Blatavsky as a concept, although it became popular in the 1960's when a certain Mrs Brown produced works from beyond the grave for Mozart, Brahms and Lizst. All exponents agree it needs a deep trance state and years of practice, something Browns 24 subjects did not possess!

The wisdom of crowds theory cannot be used to predict random numbers, but only to guess at a known value or unknown quantifiable value. Even if you accept that a lottery value is quantifiable after the event it cannot be predicted by wisdom of crowds methods as the lottery numbers are never average but entirely random.
The 1:14,000,000 chance of correctly predicting the numbers remains constant no matter what numbers have occurred in the past.
What Derren Brown calls 'deep maths' simply can never be predicted by probability or wisdom of crowds average. 24 people or 14 million people would always produce different sets of results and 24 people is highly insignificant.

This is simply more misdirection and logically there is only one solution to how he 'predicted' the numbers....

The balls were fixed!

No not the lottery balls, but the balls in the tube which he failed to show you before 'the event'!

So how did he do it - my BELIEF is that as the numbers were drawn and he called the numbers out, voice recognition software within the balls imprinted or displayed his voice on the funny looking balls in the tube - simple? or maybe not!

Misdirection is powerful and is something you need to consider carefully if you want to dominate; and that includes Google! Beat the system!

Confessions of an Internet Marketing Wizard

Footballers like David Beckham dream of winning the World Cup, more realistically driving wizards like Jensen Button dream each night of attaining their ultimate professional goal, in his case the F1 World Championship.

What do you think the person who thinks of himself as the worlds BEST systems analyst dreams about?

Ultimate access to the worlds greatest databases and taming Gooogle?

Not in my case, been there and done those things!

My dreams are more Universal!

So how do you become a wizard?



Do you REALLY want to know?

OK read on then.....................

Have you read Harry Potter or watched the movies?

Of course you have!

What is the first thing a wizard has to learn to get about in magic society?

That's it, it's just like driving!

A wizard has to learn how to....

FLY!

So how do you learn how to fly?

More specifically how do you learn how to fly in the ultra competitive world of Internet Marketing?

Read On...........

I'm often asked how come you're so clever? or How do you remember all that stuff? or How do you know all that stuff?

Well today I'm going to tell you

You may not like the answer? Make sure you learn from the explanation!

the answer is......

I'm not so clever, I don't remember all that stuff and I didn't know any stuff until I learnt it!

So where did you learn it from?

Like I told you before - my aspirations are universal!


but the real answer is ........

I learnt how to FLY!



THE EXPLANATION

ORDER OUT OF CHAOS



Like the new banner?
I feel it puts The System in perspective - all will be revealed!

To understand how to construct order out of chaos you first have to understand Chaos itself.
Now it's all very well reading about the mathematics of Chaos Theory, but it's the same as learning French, there's nothing like a visit to the place to really understand the culture and see what is really happening!

So how do you visit Chaos?

Good question!

I told you it was not an easy path to becoming a wizard!

To learn how to be a good wizard you have to LEARN from other specialist wizards (gurus to you and me marketing mortals)

If you want to learn how to fly and then fly into Chaos and back again there is only ONE safe guide!

The name of the wizard is Carlos Castaneda

To learn how to fly, visit chaos in the Nagual, and return is to understand the fundamental principles of order out of chaos - fundamental principles of multi layered universes!

To become a wizard you need to absorb every word of every one of his books!

Put your faith in God and enjoy the journey!

THE UNIVERSAL ANSWER

Once you've learnt how to fly - where are you going to go?

How about the place that has the answer to everything?

Yeah, that sounds like a fun place! (It's not Google!)

Lets Go! Allons Y, we know how to fly!

Hang on!

Yeah we've seen it but we don't know how to access it?

Thats easy - you've got to learn off another wizard, one who shows you how to tap into it properly!

Someone like

John Edward! Who IMHO is the world's best!

Now that's got you lot thinking hasn't it, just make sure you listen to the voices in your head and keep sane by following the wisdom of the crowd!

Happy Internet Madness!

The Magus

P.S. By the way, the systems analysts ultimate database has a name - it's called the Akashic Records!
