The Titanic Rite
The Titanic Rite is by far the most powerful technique in the New Avatar Power.
The way it’s explained in the book is somewhat obscure and some important info for using it properly is missing. It’s also tricky to understand the Titanic Rite’s moving parts because the less important setup takes up more mental space while the powerful parts are presented as an afterthought.
The trick is to focus on the BACK end actions in the Titanic Rite, while recognizing the complex setup as a technical exercise. The front-end actions of setting up NAP so the back-end can do its work.
The Titanic Rite uses a technique similar to the one in both It Works by RH Jarrett. It’s 100% possible to skip the Rite and just use Jarrett’s advice because Jarrett makes the technique much simpler. Doing the It Works technique a few times before attempting the Titanic Rite can help keep focus on the intention statements and avoid an over-concern with the intricacies of doing the Middle Pillar setup.
I am of the opinion that you should write your request BEFORE you create your request setup statement so you keep your focus on what really matters. With the It Works technique, all you use is the request. Geoff’s Titanic Rite precedes this request with 1 of 2 request setup structures, which he doesn’t explain in NAP but is known in Golden Dawn and grimoire work. This request setup adds keys, Godnames, and Scale colors to either Attract or Repel things and events from a person’s life to the basic structure Jarrett has in his book.
I rearranged Geoff’s array to make it even simpler to read and understand. My rearrangement is here:
Geoff’s Spheres array (from NAP p146)
This way, you read straight across the row and add that info into your request structures, cut & paste style. The request setup writes itself. This frees you up to focus on writing the request either on the front or back end. The arrays can quickly become confusing if you don’t keep your focus. This way of working with them allows you to write your request without getting lost in convolution.
The Titanic Rite activates the array info and request structures using the NAP Ritual with the Middle Pillar and Circulation Of The Body Of Light (Geoff calls these the Five New Avatar Power Gates, NAP Circulation Ritual, NAP Fountain Ritual, and Invocation to strengthen the Fountain in his book). By visualizing a change in the sphere colours, you set up your mindstate to give your requests. All of this forms the front end hypnotic induction for the Titanic Rite.
Adding 2 keywords from the Golden Dawn allows the creation of 2 types of request: invocation requests, and evocation requests. Geoff doesn’t give this info in NAP, but it can really help to know this.
Invocation requests in NAP-style kabbalism are done using the word Ehyeh (I Am). Law Of Attraction teachers will tell you the power of I Am in making requests, it’s a profound addition to NAP to use this word. Ehyeh invokes the powers or qualities of a Godname or corresponding spirit name into yourself. Empowered with that quality, you and the spirit you’ve called in combine to tag team the issue. Based on how i rewrote Geoff’s array, the request structure becomes 'Ehyeh. I am you,’ + Godname + ‘in the sphere of’ + Scale Color + Tree Of Life/Object + ‘I NN invoke you. Together we shall…’ + Request.
Evocation requests are done using the word AGLA (You are mighty forever, Lord). This is a salutation that greets the spirit you’re calling with respect, before asking them to do something for you. Based on how i rewrote Geoff’s array, the request structure will be ‘AGLA. You are mighty forever, Lord’ + Godname + ‘in the sphere of’ + Scale Color + Tree Of Life/Object + ‘I NN ask you to…’ + Request.
Geoff didn’t explain request structures properly in NAP. This is how i create mine.
As you read on, i’ll use the examples Geoff gave on pp147-9 of his original NAP book to show how the Titanic Rite works with these request structures. But before i do that, i have to cover what you do with the request structures.
NAP Visualization (with 2 variations)
Geoff uses the Middle Pillar color spheres and requests to do visualization. Here’s the thing about this. Many advanced magicians tend to assume most people have skills they don’t actually have. People who read a lot of fiction, artists who draw, and mathematicians tend to have great imaginations and excellent visualization skills, but most people in the general public do not. You have to train to visualize properly. You shouldn’t assume top visualization skill unless you verify the presence of that ability.
For that reason, i recommend using geomancy and tarot cards with Win Wenger’s Windtunneling exercise to do the Titanic Rite at first, to train visualization ability while still doing the Rite. This allows you to learn by doing instead of taking extra time off to do tedious visualization drills.
Visualizing using tarot and geomancy symbols to train your visualization skills, which allow you to develop a strong imagination and the ability to hold visuals in the mind for long periods of time through progressive training. When your visual skills are strong enough, you can ditch the cards if you want and just use your imagination to continue the work using the Middle Pillar as Geoff instructs.
It’s a deal of crawl before you walk, walk before you run, but do each step in a way that develops your skillset the quickest.
Another way to train visualization is to actively use Vision Boards with self-talk in the form of values elicitations, descriptions, reframes, and question chains with embedded commands.
When your visuals kick in, verbal description and command/questions tell your deep mind what you want it to do in a language it understands. The deep mind thinks in colors, shapes, and pictures, so stimulating visuals is how you get it to listen to you, and altering those visuals is how you speak to it. That part of your mind will respond to your prompts by releasing chemicals through your limbic system, which changes your emotional tone. This is ACTIVE emotion, not the reactive emotions most people feel. It’s a very different technique the New Thought authors called Thinking. Esoteric thinking involves thoughts empowered by active emotions that lead to a physiological change. Theorizing is not thinking, neither is rage-baiting or unthinking kneejerk response (for example, jumpscares or engaging in rage-bait and outrage porn). In today’s world many people pass those things off as thinking, but they’re not, they’re REACTIONS. Thinking actively and purposefully engages all 3 brains in tandem under a state change, and causes tangible changes in the emotional tone and body’s biometrics. Only when you engage the 3 brains and engender physical change do Thoughts Become Things. Otherwise you’re idly daydreaming or reacting.
Different hypnotic patter techniques can be used to accomplish this self-talk, including Richard Bandler and John Grinder’s Meta Model, Dr. Milton Erickson’s Milton Models used with embedded questions, descriptions, and commands, Robert Dilts’ Sleight Of Mouth Patterns, some of the useful REBT question types, David Grove’s Clean Language questions, and other psychological techniques.
It’s not necessary to use all of these question structures! Just grab 1 or 2 question, description, or command formats and repeat them by changing the content of your words. The repetition of the structure will open the mind.
Win Wenger’s Windtunneling allows these verbal techniques to stimulate the deep mind into believing and accepting your ideas. Once your deep mind locks into the characters and acts in the scenes that involve the events you want in your life, it becomes a movie in your mind that your mind wants to bring into reality.
Below are examples of how to use the above information, based on what Geoff wrote in NAP:
a. Obtaining gold.
Geoff wrote the request as ‘i wish to receive $10,000 worth of gold.’ This request fits key 6 in his array, which represents Beauty on the Tree Of Life.
Geoff wrote this as an evocation ritual which uses the AGLA structure: ‘AGLA. You are mighty forever, Lord’ + Godname + ‘in the sphere of’ + Scale Color + Tree Of Life/Object + ‘I NN ask you to…’ + Request.’
Combining the AGLA structure with key 6 info and Geoff’s array and his request, i create this mantra: ‘You are mighty forever, Lord YHVH Eloh ve-Daath in the sphere of Golden Beauty. I Geoff Gray-Cobb ask you to bring me $10,000 worth of gold.’
Geoff would then do the NAP ritual, followed by the Middle Pillar. He’d imagine the 5 spheres turning gold, then recite this statement while imagining what he wanted.
I suggest doing the visualization using geomancy and tarot cards instead of the Middle Pillar because it’s easier for people who have trouble visualizing. The Fortuna Major geomantic symbol drawn in Gold on white paper can work for this. Or, the Sun (to represent the Godname in key 6) with 6 of Pentacles (to represent the request).
Notice that the request cards match the keyscale, so key 7 would use 7 cards in the Minor Arcana, key 5 would use 5 cards, etc. This is because the Minor Arcana cards represent fixed stars and higher spirituality, while the Major Arcana cards represent planets and more direct spirituality. In this case, the cards describe the energies of the Sun conjunct alpha Tauri (Aldebaran). Geoff didn’t put this information in his arrays, but i did. You’ll see this when you check my tables; i put it under the Greater Earth Hexagrams and Spring element Hexagrams tables. The way i wrote it, you use the 2 of Pentacles with 6 of Pentacles to work with Aldebaran alone. Geoff’s way of doing this is to work the star with the planet, hence Sun and 6 of Pentacles. Both ways work fine, depending on what you want to do. I will say that Geoff’s way of doing this has more practical application, but the way i do it causes all types of lights to shine on you, it’s uncanny how that happens when you do that daily.
Double-check to make sure the conjunctions work for you rather than against you. Not all of the star/planet conjunctions are beneficial, and some can ruin your life if you attract instead of repelling them. The way around this is to reverse the star or planet cards that work against your goals; this neutralizes baneful energies.
To visualize this goal using tarot with Windtunneling, you look the cards for about 10 to 15 minutes and describe yourself INSIDE the card’s scene as if it’s happening to you in 3D. The key is to ask yourself questions that spur your imagination: ‘Why am i so ___?’ or ‘How do i feel now that ___?’ or Now that ___, what will i do next?’ or ‘What do i see/hear/feel now that ___?’ You do this nonstop for the full 15 minutes. By doing this, you begin seeing images. As you see them, describe what you see and speak to those images, affirming that you see them. ‘I see ___, how do i feel about seeing/hearing/feeling ___?’ or ‘I see/hear/feel ___. What will i do now that ___?’
Windtunneling gives a more stable and assertive visualization technique than the Middle Pillar, which is less stable and more suitable for intellectually creative people with greater imaginations.
A third way you can do this that works similar to tarot cards is to create a vision board that you speak to daily. Stare at the images on your vision board and ask yourself ‘how do i feel now that i…’ as you describe yourself already having what’s on your vision board in great detail.
Describe in detail what it is to interact with everything you have on your board. So if you have a mansion on the vision board, ‘how do i feel now that i own this mansion free and clear’ and describe walking into and out of every room in the mansion, what you see, what’s in the rooms, the wall colors, what you see outside the windows, the floor or carpets, furniture, and everything related to it as you walk inside of the mansion, then outside around the mansion, looking at the lawn and parking lot, in the garage, etc.
Do this for EVERY item on your vision board daily until you’re living in that mansion and possess all of those things, and repeat this Windtunnel daily in your NAP ritual until you get what you want.
b. Sending a present to a friend
Geoff wrote the request as ‘Send my friend the books he needs.’ He put this under key 8 as an evocation.
The AGLA structure with key 8 info becomes the statement ‘AGLA. You are mighty forever, Lord Elohim Tzabaoth in the sphere of Orange Charisma. I Geoff Gray-Cobb ask you to send my friend (friend’s name) the books he needs (name the books).’
Geoff’s take on this is to use the Middle Pillar as an energy-raising technique, changing the 5 sphere colors to Orange while he imagines his friend receiving books. Windtunneling using an Orange Albus geomantic figure drawn on a white page and/or the Magician tarot card with the 8 of Wands or 8 of Swords reversed gives the same effect.
c. Gaining the love of a partner.
Geoff’s request is ‘I desire a loving partner’ and the key he used is 7. This is an invocation ritual because it requires internal qualities to manifest.
Writing this with the I Am structure and key 7 info gives ‘Ehyeh. I invoke your powers, YHVH Tzabaoth in Emerald Green Victory. Together we shall manifest the loving partner i desire.’ This is the NAP version of love magick, which is more permissive than much of the love magick you find on other posts on this board.
With this mantra, you do the NAP ritual and Middle Pillar ritual, changing the color to Emerald Green while imagining the person you want. Or, draw an Emerald Green Puella geomantic figure on white paper and/or use the Empress and 7 of cups reversed tarot cards, while describing the exact qualities you want in a suitable person.
This acts to separate the right person out of the crowd of suitors who may not have the qualities you want, allowing the cream to rise to the top of the pile. It’s equally important to make sure YOU are also THEIR fit; far too many people want to start a vibe they themselves can’t maintain because they only see what they want, not who they are.
A vision board version of this Rite would include couples photos doing couples things, with general pictures of people who turn you on. These pictures would have many pictures of different people who fit a certain type rather than one public figure to obsess over, which isn’t healthy. Having many people who fit a type broadens your options while still keeping them focused.
d. Debt repayment
Geoff wrote this request as ‘I wish to be free of debt’ and put this under key 3. This is an evocation request using a banishing color.
Its AGLA structure gives ‘AGLA. You are mighty forever, Lord YHVH Elohim in Indigo Understanding. I NN wish to be free of debt.’
With this mantra, you do the NAP ritual and Middle Pillar, imagine the spheres turning Indigo, and then imagine the debts being cleared and the debtor going away. Or, you draw an Indigo Carcer geomantic figure on white paper, and/or lay out the Judgment tarot card with either 3 of Pentacles, 3 of Wands, 3 of Cups, or 3 of Swords reversed, depending on which one fits your situation (there are many reasons for falling into debt. As a matter of fact, the proper use of debt is a great wealth-building strategy, and this NAP ritual can be used just as much to remove bad debt from a private equity investment or guiding large-scale loans to fund a commercial project as it is to clear credit card debts, refinance a home, or deal with creditors and repossession agents. Whether the debt is good debt that brings you wealth or bad debt that can ruin your credit, this exercise can be used by a prudent person, it’s more versatile than it seems. Life happens to everybody.
A vision board could contain debt relief or debt settlement letterheads, an accountant sheet with $0 under liabilities, or photos of a person cutting a ball and chain off of themselves. Anything that makes a person feel like debt is a thing of the past works for this.
e. Remove undesirable character traits
This is an invocation or banishing ritual using Ehyeh structure. Depending on whether you want to repel a trait or attract a good one, you use the King or Queen scale color. The traits you want or don’t want will be related to one of the 7 spheres, so think carefully about which one you’ll invoke to either remove or add the quality you want.
Then do the NAP ritual and Middle Pillar, changing the sphere to the scale color you use, imagining yourself with the quality you want or without the quality you don’t want. You can also lay out the proper tarot cards for this.
In all cases, you do the Titanic Ritual DAILY until you get what you want. Geoff’s Ritual really does work, but you must persist. The 6th & 7th Books of Moses says ‘be steadfast in your work and faith, for the doubter will obtain nothing.’
