n the cross, it forms horizontal movement, where Air gives motion to Water. Air is independent and infinitely mobile. Water, on the other hand, tends towards stability and exhibits properties of inertia. The conflict generated by the interaction of these two elements is a conflict of a forced directional movement.
The Air Element is represented in the human understanding of qualities as a masculine quality. Like Fire, the Air element is incapable of permanence; Air directs, infiltrates and penetrates, giving form to matter. Air responds to pressure and is capable of compressing several times over, acquiring new properties.
The element of Fire corresponds to the etheric plane. The vibrations of Fire are rapid, ever-changing, absorbing all organic matter into itself that Fire can penetrate. Fire is the necessity of penetration both in depth and breadth. If Earth is the force of tranquility and stability, then Fire, its opposite, is the force of movement and development.
The first and perhaps the primary element for our world is the Earth element. The vibrations of the Earth element correspond to the physical plane. These are the densest, lowest frequencies. The perception chakra is the Muladhara (root chakra). In perception, the Earth element embodies feminine qualities of manifestation—acceptance, accumulation, and preservation. Inertia is a natural effect of the feminine nature of preservation and accumulation, and the Earth element vividly manifests these properties.
The first main course of the Elements department is designed to uncover, awaken elemental forces within oneself, explore various states of consciousness while being immersed into different elements.
The first level in knowing the runes comprises 26 classes (an introductory lesson, 24 runes and a final lesson) and an initiation to the runic magic ceremony. Non-attendance of any class is not allowed. At the end of this level, students can continue their study in Norse tradition in more depth in the second level course “Runes and Deities”.
Runes Department. Runes of the 1st Aett. Elder Futhark. Runic magic. The 8 runes of the 1st Aett embody primal forces. Powers inherent in you
Students of the Runes Department should remember: “Runes are not a tool for divination”. I do not teach my students fortune telling and prophecy – it does not need to be learned, when the consciousness is ready it can predict everything itself.
At Menshikova School, students learn the runes not as a tool for divination and prediction – this would be too little for such a deep subject as runic magic. Here, the runes are studied as a description of the world order, a description of all the energy-information processes – from the structure of human consciousness to the structure of consciousness of the universe, which are the same thing.
The Goal Setting via Personal Egregore seminar is the final seminar of the 5th Course, where students master the ability to quickly make connections with energy-information structures that interest them. The main task is to establish adequate energy exchange and to achieve results almost immediately.
