Hermetic Influences

              Tactical magick, in many ways, is a magical system built upon the eclectic and situational use of symbols, associations, and relationships in order to create effective magical manifestations of the will. As such, it has no foundation beyond the daily lives of its practitioners. Though however incomplete, the following hermetic magical document is an effective glimpse into the fundamental elements of this approach to magick. 

The Emerald Tablet

Truly, without deceit, certainly and absolutely that which is Below corresponds to that which is Above, and that which is Above corresponds to that which is Below, to accomplish the Miracle of One Thing. And just as all things have come from One, through the Meditation of One, so all things proceed from this One Thing in the same way. The Sun is its Father. Its Mother is the Moon. The Wind has carried it in his Belly. It is nourished by the Earth. It is the father of every Perfected Thing in the whole World. Its Power is complete if it is converted into Earth. Separate the Earth from the Fire, the subtle from the gross, gently and with great care. It rises from the Earth to Heaven, and descends again to the Earth, And thereby receives Power from Above and Below. By this means, you shall obtain the Glory of the whole World. All Obscurity will be clear to you. This is the strong Power of all Power. It overcomes everything subtle and penetrates everything solid. In this way was the World created. From this there will be amazing Applications, of which these are the means.  Therefore I am called Thrice Greatest Hermes, holding three parts of the Wisdom of the whole World.
Herein have I completely explained the Operation of the Sun.
