Sex magic (or sex magick) is the use of sex for the purpose of magick, and is thought by many believers to be the most powerful of all magick. In accordance with most Pagan and Wiccan beliefs, sex magick is not limited to heterosexual individuals.
Practice
This branch of magick takes many forms but always involves a preparation of a proper and sacred atmosphere (as with other magick), pre-cleansing of the body and mind, banishment of evil prior to beginning the ritual, focusing upon the ritual/outcome, climax, post-ritual celebration and giving thanks and praise to the goddess and god figures.
Sex magick can be practiced solo, as a couple or as a group. One particularly interesting form of ritualistic sex magick is based upon the polyandry concept of one female having sexual relations with two or more males during a single ritual and allowing their semen to mix within her body. The conceptual basis for this ritual is that semen is believed by many to be a most powerful magickal fluid. When mixed with the semen of others, its power increases exponentially.
In some quarters, it is believed that this form of magick works through the powerful release of psychic energy at the moment of orgasm. The magus deliberately prolongs the arousal phase and delays orgasm for as long as possible. When the orgasm occurs, it is accompanied by intense visualisation of the desired outcome.
One of the popular methods for working sex magick is as follows:
* Relax your mind and body using any suitable relaxation technique.
* Use erotica or a partner to attain sexual arousal.
* Hold or intensify this state of arousal for a prolonged period of time (30 to 60 minutes).
* Without losing the erection/arousal, visualise the desired outcome of your magickal working (the erection/arousal can be retained through manual stimulation either by yourself or by your partner).
* Have an orgasm.
* As your body goes into a state of post-orgasmic relaxation, express (either mentally or aloud) your heartfelt gratitude for the fulfilment of your wish/desire.
The process described above is very similar to the controversial methods advocated and used by Aleister Crowley. Some critics claim that this body of beliefs may be psychologically dangerous or offensive and that these rituals may be characteristic of a cult.
