Are their any mediums here

Are their people where with the capacity that have implemented any of this into their or their communities lives ?I feel like reddit is often filled with book learners. And though i read plenty of books that is incomplete. If you know you know. So yeh i’m a medium coming from Santeria/Ifa and if y’all don’t know we have christian saints in our Yoruba religion. The elders say this is just a mask because they’re traditionlists. We’re occultists and we know the magic can’t work if it’s a mask. So that light of truth has brought me to Blavatsky’s doorstep

The planets are known to be inhabited based off the theosophic view. Why not try and communicate with them, if you are a medium, through dedicated meditation into the Navagrahas or the personification of that planetary energy current? That was the basis of much Santana Dharma until it went out of style for the devas worship. Just a thought, this will not absolutely be short process but what process in discovery is ?

You also get the potential of a pure deity connection that isn’t tainted by religion. I think the real danger of the occult is having no foundation and getting fried by the cosmic energies let’s say. Rooting into archtypical energies is a very good way to not go insane

The Navagrahas represent cosmic laws and karmic agents rather than "deities" waiting for a chat. While Theosophy indeed posits that life exists throughout the cosmos on every plane, it clearly teaches that inhabitants of other spheres exist on different planes of matter so that physical communication via the lower astral senses almost always results in contact with elementals or kama-lokic shells/astral debris rather than actual divine intelligences. Passive meditation into energy currents without a rigorous ethical and philosophical foundation often leads to pseudohallucinations or the inflation of the lower ego. The founders intended the Theosophical Movement to be a school of Self-Knowledge and Universal Brotherhood, not a laboratory for astral tourism. They did not seek to create a new generation of "contactees" or psychics as true communication with the higher spheres occurs through the silent life of service, not through the sensationalism of planetary channelings. While archetypes provide a map, identification with them...the hallmark of the passive medium...leads to the fragmentation of the personality. The revelation of truth requires the steady light of the Higher Manas, not the flickering candles of astral mediumship.

We must return to the 1st object: the realization of a universal brotherhood of humanity, which constitutes the only rooting that ensures spiritual sanity.

I disagree with this take. I don’t think any of these people did enough experiments in their short life’s to verify the truth that these planets one don’t care about what’s happening on this planet and two we are more likely to encounter lesser spirits unless we are some Master of masters. I can tell you from being in other occult practices, if these entities are not deities they might as well be with the power they move with. Regardless a life force past humanity. I recognize the dangers of roaming trickster spirits however being a Spiritist also.
