S + M = SEX + MURDER. HE FOUND HER … AND LOST HIMSELF. IS THE PAIN …
WORTH THE PLEASURE?



Ritual Use of Sadomasochism in Magick

The acronyms S/M (for Sado-Masochism), B/D (for Bondage & Discipline), and D/S (for
Domination & Submission), all describe various delineations of the techniques that
encompass the practice of using psychological dominance and submission, physical
bondage, the pain/pleasure dynamic and various related practices to consensually bring
about ecstatic states of mind or sexual gratification.
S/M, as with other socially unacceptable practices, has it's own set of lingo that revolves
around it. I will define a few of the terms that will be used throughout this presentation..

1. Dominant, Dom or Top are terms to describe who is handling the application of S/M
techniques upon their working partner.         
For the most part the Dom is responsible for creating the gnosis in their partner and also
for the overall safety of the working. The Dom is the wielder of power, the artist who
creates magick and ecstasy through the arts of S/M that they have mastered.

2. Sub, Submissive or Bottom is the person who has the techniques of S/M worked upon
them. The Sub is the conduit of power, the canvas with which the Dom creatively or
artistically brings forth magical manifestation.
A good metaphor put forth by Stephen Flowers in "Carnal Alchemy" is that the Dom is
the Alchemist and the Sub is the base metal that will be transformed into gold. Turning
pain into pleasure, powerlessness into empowerment

3. A Scene within S/M circles is defined as a session wherein S/M techniques are
practiced to create sexual gratification and ecstasy in the participants. S/M scenes are in
most every respect rituals without the added empowerment of well thought out
symbolism and/or imprinting.

Though many S/M scenes I've observed or participated in would not be considered
magickal rituals they have had obvious magickal results in the areas of illumination and
breaking past fears, cathartic release, etc..

Let's now discuss various reasons for utilizing S/M or related techniques within a
magical context.

Nicholas Gander in an article entitled "Scourging in Witchcraft", which appeared in a IOT
in-house magazine THE KAOS MAGICK JOURNAL (Summer '94) and has been reprinted
in the latest issue of WIDDERSHINS, outlines four potential aims for utilizing scourging in
Witchcraft, each of them being applicable to S/M Magick as well. I will expound on these
aims:

1. "To achieve altered states of consciousness repeatedly and reliably."
As magicians we are interested in is the utilization of S/M techniques to bring about a
state of gnosis/trance or no mind to create a magickal outcome in either ourselves or the
world around us. Primarily this kind of gnosis falls into what Peter J. Carroll calls a
excitatory mode of gnosis. Though techniques such as bondage and the use of
blindfolds, hoods, earplugs, etc. are techniques that are classically inhibitory, and are
used well within rites of a death oriented nature, they are more often than not, in S/M,
utilized as a means to strengthen alternate senses that are being excited or stimulated.
By mastering various techniques of S/M, and through experience, a magician can apply
these techniques to effect with safety and reliability.         
One must keep in mind that there are various safety concerns in practicing such
techniques and therefore the techniques should be thoroughly researched and
integrated through diligent practice.

2. "To strengthen the ability to move psychic energy (information/ biological signals)
throughout the body and increase the potential energy, which the magician is able to
handle and manipulate at any one time."
This ability is similar to those that practice Tantra, internal martial arts such as Tai Chi, Ki
Gong, etc. The technique of utilizing the mind to affect the biological being has been
proven effective through the use of biofeedback, hypnotism and NLP.

3. "To ritually turn even adversity to advantage, retaining flexibility in discomfort."
This concept is similar to Pete Carroll putting forth anathemism as a technique to
liberation of the mind of the magician. To explore and face that which frightens, disgusts
or is painful to oneself has a side of effect of illuminating the magicians mind to the fact
that these feelings and emotions are only constructs of the mind. Preconceptions are
destroyed when the magician overcomes the obstacles of fear and pain and realizes how
resilient the body and mind are in overcoming such situations.
There seems to be a similar concept within some martial arts and survivalist training.
These disciplines train the students to not give up in the face of adversity. With proper
training and practice the mind and body can overcome situations where it would seem
easier to give up or throw in the towel. Pushing ones mental and physical limits through
S\M experiences empowers the magician to feel increasingly more confident to make
decisions unfettered by meaningless fear and strengthens ones fortitude and resolve in
overcoming obstacles that could sabotage ones desires.

4. "To push the edges of the magicians psychic and psychological envelope."
This is directly related to the precept above and, for myself, one of the most useful
dynamics I have found within Chaos Magick. Rather than being a spectator in life, I
explore all facets of it to gain more experience that will help in the understanding of
myself and others; identifying ones' strengths and weaknesses, fortifying the weak
areas, and identifying and incorporating various experiences into new magical insights
and outcomes. In general the techniques utilized in sex magick also pertain to S/M
magick. A good book to read in respect to sex magick is _Secrets of the German Sex
Magicians_. The S/M magician takes sex magick a step further with their interest in S/M,
as it helps increase their arousal. A general sex magick maxim is "The higher the level of
arousal, the more sexual energy the magician has to work with." (Carnal Alchemy)         
Typically when people hear the words Sadism and Masochism they immediately think of
pain. Our typical aversion to pain is an instinctual reaction. It is a useful instinct that
teaches us that once we burn ourselves on the stove, to not stick our fingers in the flame
again. It helps keep us alive, but then transcending pain can lead to states of
consciousness not readily accessed through other means.

It is one thing to react to stimulation or pain, whether external or internal, through instinct
and another to acknowledge the process through which the body reacts and manipulate
it through mental technique. S/M, when properly applied, familiarizes the participants with
their bodies and minds reactions and allows them to harness it to gnostic effect. Proper
application of S/M techniques allows the participants to learn how to reach progressively
stronger states of gnosis and apply them effectively.

The practice of inducing pain in the form of whipping, paddling, clamps, etc. is a means
of utilizing external stimulation to induce biological reactions that create gnosis through
release of endorphins. This is very similar to the state of mind accessed by runners and
other athletes after approx. 45 minutes of exertion.

Domination & Submission -Power exchange and humiliation

First off, we need to throw out any concepts of Political Correctness. S/M is a way to
power by accepting that one's own fantasies are worthy of indulging. S/M is a way to
power for both the Submissive and the Dominant. The roles can be adopted by Male to
Female, Male to Male or Female to Female. Many magicians have found it enlightening to
throw off accepted roles and adopt a system of experience for experiences sake.
Regardless of the sexes involved S/M scenes allow the participants to experience roles
that empower themselves in one way or another.
To adopt a submissive role can be a cathartic experience that allows one a release from
the daily life of exerting power over others; through total resignation to someone and
allowing them to access power they would not normally have access to. Adopting the
role of the submissive also gives the sub experience in being a conduit for power and
learning the dynamics of power. To adopt the role of Dominant allows one to experience
ultimate power and learn to become comfortable with it or learn to wield power to effect
all areas in your life. Personally I have found that experiencing roles that I normally didn't
accept so wholeheartedly within normal everyday life allowed me new perspectives and
while turning my mind inside out, opened it up in the process to wield power in manners
that further my own desires.

S/M techniques are powerful and when used wisely are great sources to personal
growth, power and effecting the world in a clear manner. The key is to know what you are
doing, to not be afraid to experiment and to always nurture communication with those
you are involved with. Different people have different tastes and by learning a bit about
each technique and fully exploring those that interest you the most will instill confidence
in yourself and increase not only your repertoire of magickal techniques, but also your
abilities in opening new partners minds and experiences with your abilities in the sexual
arena.

Tag line:
NO ONE IS EVER WHO YOU THINK THEY ARE … NOT EVEN YOURSELF. S&M =
SEX + MURDER. Sadistic is a pulse-pounding thrill ride into
southern psycho-horror unlike anything you’ve ever experienced
before.


Log line: When an evil sexually sadistic serial killer starts
terrorizing a small Arkansas town, a brilliant FBI profiler
thinks he knows who the killer is … but does he? During the
course of the investigation, he unwittingly becomes entangled
with a seductive, dangerous stranger. Their dark relationship
brings out the agent’s repressed desires, with tragic and
shocking results To be shot in the gritty, no holds barred manner
of 70’s style horror films, SADISTIC explores the underground
universe of a ruthless sexually sadistic serial killer and the
federal agent forced to enter the murderer’s terrifying domain. A
brilliant FBI forensics psychologist and best selling crime
author, Dr. Mack Taylor, thrives in a world where nothing is as
it seems and there are no set rules, at least not for the evil
killers he is trying to catch ... and ultimately not for himself.

When the story opens, a pretty young couple is found
ritualistically murdered in an abandoned house in the small town
of Redemption, Arkansas. When the bodies are found mutilated and
strung up in a manner similar to crime scene photos of famous
serial killer Ed Gein’s murders, the local homicide cops realize
this is the work of a vicious serial killer. The FBI sends Dr.
Mack Taylor of Texas, an expert in profiling sexually sadistic
serial killers, to Arkansas for the investigation. Mack is sure
that he recognizes this killer –- a vicious neo-Nazi named Clyde
Davis that he arrested over ten years ago when he was a local
homicide cop. At his trial, Clyde was acquitted on the insanity
plea and the court committed him to a psychiatric hospital for
the criminally insane -- where he recently escaped. Along with Bo
Tucker, a local homicide detective, Mack tracks down Clyde
and arrests him on unrelated charges in order to detain him for
questioning about the case. During the interviews, Clyde proceeds
to lead the two lawmen down a Byzantine path, while continually
denying any involvement in the ongoing carnage. When following up
Clyde’s lead about a suspect in an underground S&M club one
night, Mack meets a sexy blonde named Serena Hart who promptly
seduces him into an intense affair. Somehow, this alluring woman
intuitively knows how to manipulate Mack’s hidden weakness -– the
secret desires that cost him his marriage and custody of his son.

While Clyde is incarcerated, the murders continue. Mack confronts
Clyde about the murders, thinking that he must have an
accomplice. After signing a deal dropping all charges and
granting immunity, Clyde states that his accomplice is his ex-
lover Anna Lee Johnson, and that he was her accomplice in all the
brutal murders that she masterminded. Is Clyde telling the truth?
Or is Clyde lying again just to save his own skin? When
Mack confronts his lover Serena about her true identity as Anna
Lee, he finds out the shocking truth. Meanwhile, Bo becomes
suspicious of Mack when he says that he is going to arrest Anna
Lee and he comes back empty-handed. However, Bo is unable to
convince the police chief that there is more going on with Mack
than what it seems. Also, during Mack’s sessions with female
psychiatrist Dr. Steel, we learn the hard truth about his
troubled life, and how his abusive past may be affecting his
present circumstances. During a television interview, Mack
attributes the murders of hundreds of women on the Mexican border
over the past ten years to the Vampire Killer, a cannibalistic
psycho that he was forced to kill in self-defense while
investigating one of his crime scenes. But does Mack know more
details about those murders than he is actually revealing?

As Mack becomes more deeply entwined with the schemes of the
killer that he’s investigating, he increasingly finds himself
crossing over on the wrong side of the law that he has sworn to
uphold. He gets a strong taste of the killer’s dark reality, a
life from which he finds it increasingly difficult to retreat.
Eventually, we begin to realize that Mack is far more troubled
than what he initially appears to be on the surface. As the
slaughters continue to escalate, Mack takes one last chance to
stop the killer and at the same time stop the demons raging
within him. Will Mack turn the tables on this killer and bring
about justice? Will he drown in his own purgatory or find his own
salvation? Is Mack even REALLY who we think he is? Can it be that
Mack and Clyde are actually involved in an evil conspiracy that
set the current events into motion? In the shocking ending to
SADISTIC, we find out the real answers –- and they are far
stranger and more horrifying than anyone could have ever imagined.
