The idea of planetary intelligences is intriguing. Current scientific theory wouldn't consider the concept at all, but I feel there ought to be space for "magic" to exist in-between the equations. And anyway, all magic that works is just science that hasn't been invented yet.Th
Thank you. I also view the occult and magick, and all of its paths as being actual lost sciences.
Since scientists have neglected the occult and spirituality, they are missing out on a whole world of science (that we don't know) that are the occult sciences. I am a scientist at heart, perhaps there is, or are things to be learned from studying the occult.
I have not learned astrology yet, but astrology is a real science and is not bullshit or make-believe like we are taught.
Yaldabaoth, his created archons, including the zodiacal archons (the Zodiac signs are actual archons) impose an astrological fate upon you, but that fate can be changed. Isn't that interesting?
There are spirits living on the astral plane of other planets, such as Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn, and the grimoires are used to summon said spirits.
I have learned about something called gnosis.
There is something called gnosis and it isn't worth it. Gnosis is a scam. However there are some experienced magicians who have been granted gnosis and have written books.
While I am still a student of the occult and am a long way from praticing magick and establishing any contact with spiritual entities, spiritual entities have some sort of knowledge and intuition that we don't know (their own knowledge and intuition) that they can discuss or even grant to the magician. A spirit's own knowledge and intuition granted to the magician is called "gnosis" (gnosis is also the Greek word for knowledge).
However in order to be granted gnosis, a pact has to be formed between the magician and entity, and the magician will have to serve the entity in the afterlife. The length of this pact is determined by Saturnian spirit genii that are involved in karma and fate.
Unfortunately there seems to be an abundance of left-hand path occult material and it is harder to find non-left hand path material.
I'll see if I can find non-left hand path magick and occult systems, which may be more appealing to you.
A non-left hand path occult system is called hermeticism, which deals with the magick of the 4 elements fire, water, air and earth, and the fifth element ether. I'll look for hermetic literature and I'll post it here.
Anyway, Nikola Tesla once said that if scientists started studying non-physical phenomena, science would make more progress than ever in history. Imagine if physicists started studying the four elements fire, water, air, earth and ether, what would they find?

I agree with you about the kind of gnosis you describe. Any knowledge that enslaves you isn't worth knowing.
Have you read any of the early gnostic texts that deal with Yaldaboath and Norea?
They are worth looking at, and are easily available on the internet
You are right most of the content is LHP. It is more edgy, more interesting. My experience is that most of these paths take you to a leader with a giant ego who wants you to drink the Kool-Aid, or at least buy the specially printed leather bound limited edition of their Magnum Opus
Your idea of approaching it as a science seems to be a good one. It should weed out some of the craziest
