The Electric and Magnetic Fluids ~
According to the information given in the theoretical part, there are two kinds of fluids originating in the four elements, namely the electric and the magnetic fluid. The electric fluid comes from the fire principle, themagnetic one from the water principle. The air principle is the mediating element between the two.
The earth element is bipolar, hence containing both fluids, and it is electromagnetic, electric in the center and magnetic on the periphery. According to the aforesaid laws, these two fluids are working in all spheres, physical, astral and mental. These fluids are the cause of everything that exists.
Next let us deal with the knowledge and control of these two fluids, because managing these fluids will enable the magician to achieve everything in all spheres, no matter whether the mental, astral or material sphere is concerned.
The effect of nay of these fluids, however, depends on the magician's maturity, whether he is strong enough and able to for the cause in the respective sphere. There are two fundamental methods in order to work with both fluids, the inductive and the deductive method. The magician will learn how to use bothmethods in this Step.
Let us discuss the electrical fluid first.
Control of the Electric Fluid -Inductive Method.
~~~~~
This exercise can be performed sitting down or standing up, just as it is more convenient for the individual.
1. Take up your usual meditation position, close your eyes, and think of your body as being hollow; furthermore, imagine that you are in the center of a fiery ball that includes the whole universe.
You have got to imagine the fire element red hot and bright, similar to the sun. You will feel the warmth on the periphery of your ownbody automatically in this imagination, becauseyou already learned about this sensation in the chapter referring to projection.
Doing this exercise you should perceive the expansion of the fire element within your body. You have to imagine that the universal fire element presses the light into your hollow body when expanding.
The more intense and fiery you imagine the universal fire ball, the more light is pressed into your body through the pores of the skin from all directions, your whole body being loaded with light.
You must perceive the pressure of the light inside your body, feeling it like a balloon swollen with light. The pressure of the light is supposed to go from the outside to the inside. At this moment you will experience the sensation of an unusual fullness, as if you were ready to burst.
Go on breathing calmly while performing this exercise, because in this dynamic accumulation of light you will be tempted to hold your breath, which you must avoid doing.
As soon as you have produced so strong an accumulation of light, viz., a light-dynamide, that your body is bursting, you will feel at
the same moment that your whole body, mainly your fingertips, has been loaded with a strong electric current.
2. Impress this perception very firmly on your mind, because this is actually the electric fluid I am talking about. If you accomplished
this accumulation, allow the universal fire to fade away slowly with the help of the imagination until it has gone out completely. At the same time you have to imagine that the accumulated light is diminishing too, the power of expansion gradually becoming
weaker and weaker, until everything inside and outside yourself has turned pale and finally extinct.
Hereby the first exercise of the inductive method concerning the electric fluid is at an end. When after several practices you have
achieved a certain skill in producing the electric fluid without difficulty, you may begin to perform a desire impregnation on the
electric fluid.
All you have to do is imagine that the light accumulated inside you, or better to say, the electric fluid contained in the light, reinforces and increases you active powers in the spirit, soul and body. In this manner you can arouse all the active faculties, qualities, etc., that are imputed to the fire element and the air element in yourself.
You have the possibility, for example, to increase your will power, your faith, and your control of the element to a supernatural degree.
It is indeed quite impossible to describe with mere words the range of power and strength achieved in this way, and you will be convinced of it best by your own experiences.

Control of the Magnetic Fluid - Inductive Method ~
The performance with this fluid is exactly the same.
1. Sit in your meditation position imagining that you are hollow but able to take in the magnetic fluid. Now close your eyes and imagine the whole universe being filled with water and yourself in the center of it.
You will automatically perceive the wetness and coolness on the periphery of your body, but do not give your full attention to this fact; imagine how your body, like a dry sponge, is sucking in the magnetic power from the universal water element.
This imagination exercise must be increased until you feel a dynamide in yourself, similar to a fully inflated tire, and you are
quite certain that a higher accumulation is impossible. As soon you have reached the peak of magnetic power accumulation, allow the imagination to melt away gradually, and the magnetic power accumulated inside you to dissolve into infinity.
If you are able to discriminate the difference between the electric and the magnetic fluid by mans of frequent exercises, you will have the opportunity, just as with the electric fluid, to strengthen those faculties in yourself that dwell in the water and the earth elements, such as mediumistic faculties, clairfeeling, psychometry, thought reading, medial writing, and others.

PART TWO:
Control of the Electric Fluid - Deductive Method ~
You cannot work with this method before being able to manage both
the previous methods. The deductive method is similar to the inductive one, but in just the opposite sequence.
1. Accumulate the fire element drawn from the universe into your body through pulmonary or pore breathing or both of them, and eventually by sheer imagination too, in the same manner you learned with respect to the inhaling of elements and their accumulation.
2. While storing the fire element, give less attention to the warmth, which will be perceived automatically.
The accumulated element will produce an enormous expansion causing a
strong irradiation of the electric fluid in the body to the outside, which will be perceived by the skin just as if you had undergone
treatment with a high frequency electric machine.
The irradiation of the electric fluid will become stronger and stronger, more pervasive and more subtle by frequent repetitions. By increasing the accumulation of the element, it can even be condensed
to such a degree that it can be seen and felt by people who are not trained at all.
You can increase this force so far that you can make a neon lamp light up. As soon as you have reached the peak accumulation of an element, viz. the highest degree of radiation, let the fire element together with the electric fluid dissolve into the universe,
rid the body of the elements, and the exercise is ended.

Control of the Magnetic Fluid - Deductive Method ~
The process concerning the control of the magnetic fluid is similar
to the deductive method of handling the electric fluid, described in the foregoing exercise, with the difference that instead of the fire, the water element will play its part.
1. Accumulate the water element dynamically in your body, which you imagine to be hollow. You may breath through the lungs or the pores or both together, or let imagination play its role.
Although you will perceive the wetness and coolness during this accumulation, focus your attention on the skin of the body. In the
beginning and as a result of an extremely strong dynamization, the sensation of this fluid will produce a sort of paralyzing effect
until you get accustomed to it.
If you manage to increase the accumulation to the peak, gradually dissolve the water element together with the magnetic fluid into the universe by means of the imagination. This is the end of this exercise.
You ought to master all four methods so well as to be able to perform each method in a few moments with your imagination, and to produce the magnetic or electric fluid inductively.
You will accomplish this by frequent and indefatigable training. Be
very attentive, because controlling these two fluids is very important, since everything will be within your reach with the help of these two universal powers, no matter in which sphere the magician wishes to exercise his influence.
In the beginning these exercises have to be performed with the eyes
closed, later on with open eyes, without any regard for the situation one happens to be in. It is important to know that in all four methods the magician will be inclined to strain the muscles or hold the breath, which ought to be avoided.
These exercises must be performed in a calm and unconcerned way and
should not be noticed by anyone.
The magician will find out now that the inductive method serves to direct a power from the universe to the inside, viz., into his body, soul and spirit, whereas the deductive method is destined to send
off a fluid from the inside to the outside.
If the magician has gained experience in the four methods, he can extend the exercise as follows: while following the inductive
method, increase the electric fluid to the highest point and allow the external fire element to dissolve into nothingness, he can hold the electric fluid with its tension power and the respective fire element inside his body.
When he has kept this fluid for a long time, then he may allow it to flow gradually back into the universe. The magician can operate in the same manner with the magnetic fluid. Do not advance before both
the methods quoted here have been mastered very well.
The methods of controlling the electric and magnetic fluids described here are a kind of preliminary exercises, and as soon as they have become familiar, you may pass on to the capital method concerning the mastery of the electromagnetic fluid, which I will
describe in the following chapter.
Consider the following analogies: head and chest correspond to the electric fluid, abdomen and thighs and feet to the magnetic fluid.
Now the magician's task will be to load the feet and abdomen up to the pit of the stomach with the magnetic fluid, and the head, neck and chest with the electric fluid in the manner previously described.
He must be able to load both these fluids dynamically, one after the other in the two regions of his body to such a degree that he gets the sensation as if he were about to burst. After a prolonged period
of exercises, he will be able to retain both fluids. Having arrived at this point, he presses the electric fluid into the right breast
with the help of his imagination, forming a hollow around the heart region, but he does not load the left breast at all.
This done, he withdraws the accumulated magnetic fluid from the lower region of his body and stores it via the left breast in the
left hand. The left hand now is magnetic and possesses an astringent
cooling radiation.
Proceed in the same way with the right hand by accumulating the electric fluid from the upper region via the right breast into the
hand, which thereby becomes electric. One can feel the expansive hot electric energy in the whole hand, but mostly in the fingertips.
Provided that there is no personal use for both powers, one dissolves them, letting them fly free from the hands into the universe.
By managing these exercises perfectly, one has become master of the electromagnetic fluid, viz., master of two universal powers with the help of which one can achieve practically anything.
