The Occult Currency of Consent: How Darkness Runs on the Power We Give It

We were taught to fear the thief in the night - but no one warned us about the agreements we sign in broad daylight

Have you ever heard me say, “Stop giving your power away”?

Let me tell you why I keep saying that over and over again.

We live in a reality that doesn’t steal our power - it takes it with our permission. Not through force, but through quiet agreements made in moments of joy, fear, desire, guilt, love, habit, or social pressure. We give consent and allow someone else to dictate our reality, emotions, and decisions every time we shrink ourselves to fit in, every time we nod at a narrative we don’t believe, every time we outsource our truth to an “authority” outside ourselves. The exchange is subtle, but the cost is immense. And once you begin to see it - once you notice how reality runs on the electricity of your own agreement - everything changes.

“Don’t vote!” I said. And the arguments from social activists came: “But we need a voice,” “We need to make a difference,” “We need to make a stand.”

But it was never about their voice, actions, or stand. By signing over their vote, they relinquish their ability to speak, act, or stand for themselves.It means they no longer have a voice, can make a difference, or are able to take a stand.

“But my representative agrees with what I want and will make it happen,” they might counter.

Unfortunately, even though historical evidence is very clear on the matter, people don’t seem to realize that their “representative” is someone who now represents their power and authority - not their beliefs, ideologies, or desires.

How things got so unclear, so hidden in the wide open, is a mystery to me.

“Don’t blame,” I said.

“But it wasn’t my choice to have this experience — the government did it!” they might argue. “My husband made me do it.” “I have to do it to keep my wife happy.”

However, by blaming others, all they are really saying is that other people have the ability and power to dictate their lives, emotions, and thoughts. Once you send that power and authority to someone or something else, it is no longer yours to wield.

In actual fact, you have the power to change your own thoughts, emotions, and decisions.

“Say ‘you choose’ to work, to travel, to marry, to do…” I said. And this is directly related to the above.

“I choose to go to work so that I can have all the material benefits this brings me. Yes, I know it’s a horrible job, but the benefits make it worth it.”

This, in itself, empowers the person. They choose to keep their wife happy - they don’t have to. They choose to do what the husband says - they don’t have to. The only reason they do it is for their own benefit. It makes them happy, or they do it from a place of fear.

We are all adults here.

“Listen to the lyrics of the music you love and play repeatedly," I said.

“But it is such a nice catchy tune, I love it so much… Oh wait, it says that murdering and torturing people is a good thing. And it says that they are absorbing my soul.”

“Yeah. Listen to the lyrics of the tunes you have in your playlist. Unconsciously, you are being programmed.”

“OK. I will do that tomorrow, when I have time to find music I like that is not demonic and necrotic.”

And tomorrow never comes for that person, because it is easier to just do the habits they are used to every day. So unless Spotify adds a “not demonic, degraded or dark”, they will continue to listen to what the big guns are paying to be the top singles and albums.

For the majority of the population, my words fall into broken minds and firewalls.

You might think, “But I listen, and I do, and I research, educate myself, take your courses, and I understand what you mean and say.”

To tell you the truth, I thought the same thing. However, recent interactions with our podcast listeners - even the panelists - and with students from around the world, show me that a lot is either missed or completely misunderstood. I am often quoted as saying the exact opposite of what I wrote.

When that happens, I get a bit concerned, thinking, “Shit, why on Earth would I write that? Must be out of context or something. Send me the reference link.”

“Oh, it doesn’t say that here. I don’t know why I thought it did. I can’t find it.”

My conclusion from all this is that the occult currency of consent is insidious. It requires limitations in decision-making, comprehension, and awareness.

Most people - including my readers (yes, you) and the disempowered population of the world - have forgotten the power that runs through their veins. The ancient voices in their bones. The power of the universe in their words, decisions, and emotions.

What can I say now except: Understand. Your choices, words, and actions have consequences.

Nothing happens to you without your conscious or unconscious consent. Become conscious.
