Dogma and faith in magick should be tool for accessing and connecting to symbols and mechanisms that incorporate those. Through symbols we connect to currents of energy, which are substance of microcosm. Those coexist and relate to each other according to universal laws. We can see those laws at work trough influence of planets and stars in our life, and that is lowest level of manifestation of universal laws. Planets and their influence represent material manifestation of ideas and functions from subtle or ideal world (world of idea of archetypes). Faith or dogmatic approach is here to trigger our emotional response and establish connection on line subjective/individual-objective/archetypal. Then we are enabled to exploit those currents. It could be seen as law of likeness, as we take on some emotional model, or mind frame, we transform our self according to symbols representing that current, and so attract that energy. In same way energy that is now attracted can be manipulated. Laws that govern it can also be symbolically represented. And by using those symbols we fine tune energy. Its like learning words of song then melody and with practice we could learn to sing it perfectly as creator of that song meant it to be.
From this perspective we can observe and learn ways we interact with objective reality. First we have to understand that everything around of consists of two basic categories shape and substance (energy of different frequencies). Shape can be seen as law that constricts or organizes energy, or as Love under Will Crowley spoke about.
