This sentence comes from the beginning of the Emerald Tablet and encompasses the entire system of traditional and modern magic that Hermes Trismegistus wrote on the tablet in cryptic words.
The significance of this phrase lies in the fact that it supposedly contains the key to all secrets. All systems of magic are said to function according to this formula: "What is above is the same as what is below." The macrocosm is the same as the microcosm. The universe is the same as God and Goddess, God and Goddess are the same as humankind, humankind is the same as the cell, the cell is the same as the atom, the atom is the same as… and so on, ad infinitum. This means that everything is interconnected.
“As within, so without” means that we have a divine creation within us and outside of us, that we are connected to nature and the universe, to God and Goddess, that they exist both within us and outside of us, that we are one with everything, from the smallest atom to the largest star.
This is how magic works: We use our inner will to create an effect outside of ourselves; we connect with the energies to which we are connected. We use our connection with nature to achieve specific results; we use the vibrational frequency in colors, herbs, crystals, stones, water, fire, air, earth, metals, candles, chants, seals, etc.
It's like the saying "As you sow, so shall you reap." This is also known as the law of cause and effect, or karma. Whatever we put out into the universe comes back to us. If we want happiness, peace, friendship, and love, then we should be happy, peaceful, loving, and kind. Negative energy that we send out also comes back to us.
More for you:
"Dravens Tales from the Crypt" has been enchanting for over 15 years with a tasteless mixture of humor, serious journalism - for current events and unbalanced reporting in the press politics - and zombies, garnished with lots of art, entertainment and punk rock. Draven has turned his hobby into a popular brand that cannot be classified.
My blog was never designed to spread news, let alone get political, but with current affairs I just can't help but capture information here that is otherwise censored on all other channels. I am aware that the design page may not seem "serious" to many in this regard, but I will not change this to please the "mainstream". Anyone who is open to non-state-compliant information sees the content and not the packaging. I've tried enough to provide people with information over the last 2 years, but quickly noticed that it never matters how it's "packaged", but what the other person's attitude towards it is. I don't want to put honey on anyone's mouth to meet expectations in any way, so I'll keep this design because hopefully at some point I'll be able to stop making these political statements, because it's not my goal to go on like this forever 
I leave it up to everyone how they deal with it. However, you are welcome to simply copy and distribute the content, my blog has always been under the WTFPL license.
It's hard for me to describe what I'm actually doing here, DravensTales has become a culture blog, music blog, shock blog, tech blog, horror blog, fun blog, a blog about found items on the internet, internet bizarre, trash blog, art blog, water heater, zeitgeist blog over the years , Scrap blog and grab bag blog called. Everything that is right ... - and yet not. The main focus of the blog is contemporary art, in the broadest sense of the word.
