The focus of this thread is to overlook each of what are called the plane of existence and analyze what can be considered their practical use in magic.

I think there are litterally an endless number of realms, plains, worlds or whatever. Its all just a matter of perception. For example by the way I interpret Cloud Hex the current corresponds to consiousness since we experience all energy here and now. The chaos part relates to the super consciousness as that is the part of us that allows us to percieve things through hyperrealism. Then the sea of chaos, to me is the sub-consciousness - all that is creativity, desire, energy yet without actual thought or concept, no structure. If we wanted to we could pick apart each of these realms and creat other realms or sub-realms indeffinately.

Now I wouldn't say that, I feel that it's not always a good idea to try to find correspondence with everything, you see it that way but I don't, make of that what you will. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

See, now I think it's not a good idea not to try and find correspondence with everything - if your view holds no correspondence with anything else, how can you be sure it's a valid viewpoint? Even if you take one paradigm and interpret it differently, your perspective can still be valid - but if you just pull something out of thin air, and it doesn't parallel with anything else (and I don't just mean standard views or paradigms) then it's more than likely just an active imagination. Or more specifically, you've probably got an idea, which is being applied incorrectly.

There are a lot of individuals out there doing their very best to come up with unique or new views of how creation is organized. Such a spirit of exploration should certainly be encouraged and appreciated, but one has to keep in mind while they do this, that while there is no limit to the spectrum of perception, that it's all be figured out before, and that ultimately you have to be careful to make sure that instead of coming up with a new perspective, you're not just miring yourself in pointless illusions that really have no fit into the scheme of how it really is. The check, is to find correspondence.

The world is complicated - that which makes it up is elegantly simplistic, but infinitely versatile.
