Enochain scrying: TEX
This evening I sat down to skry the 30th Aethyr, TEX. Having read about TEX providing some of the most vivid visions I was a bit worried. However I performed the normal ritual and then recited the 19th call. After that I repeated the names of the govenors, Taogla, Gemnimb, Advorpt, and Dozinal. On the third repetition I saw 4 hooded figures ( Read more... ) -
Tarot Reading
This evening, in preparing to skry the 30th Aeyther TEX, I did a reading with my good set of cards. A friend of mine had suggested I do a reading before each one of my workings as a way of preparing myself. While I probably wouldn't find out what I would see I would learn what I needed to know about myself to do the working. I'm find myself more ( Read more... ) -
Studies
I've spent a lot of time in my enochian studies. I'm working to memorize the alphabet and the preliminaries of the rituals. I've been doing my workings, wand in one hand and ritual notebook in the other. It's not so much a hinderance as it is an annoyance. After spending more time thinking about the messages given to me by the Enochians and my ( Read more... ) -
And then with a flash
Well I definitely fell off the radar for some time didn't I? Things in life have been very crazy. I had to put my bota studies on hold as well as some of my main more time consuming workings. My life is finally moving in a direction that I want. Work is great, I got the new job that I wanted and everything has been falling into place with that ( Read more... ) -
Excitment
I'm definitely excited. I just found out that a Societas Rosicruciana in Civitatibus Foederatis has formed in my state and I now know one of the charter members. I hope to be invited to join at some point as I feel I can not only get a lot out of this group but contribute a lot to the group. As one person said, just like Freemasonry is ( Read more... ) -
Goetia: Oboras III
Well it appears Oboras obeyed me faithfully. I got my new job and salary negotiations were very successful. Tonight I summoned Oboras into the triangle. This time he came veyr quickly. As soon as I called he was there. I thanked him for faithfully obeying me and showed him a metal disc that I had carved his seal into. He seemed very pleased ( Read more... ) -
Speak Like a Pirate Day
I just found out that today is speak like a pirate day. Normally I'm on top of this stuff (especially working at a university). I thought I would take this time to give a big yo ho to Captain Dan and the Scurvy Crew. Their authentic pirate hip hop shivers my timbers -
Goetia Theory
The post before my last post has sparked a lot of interest from those who read this and those who occasionally read this so I thought I would take the time to explain a bit about goetic magic. I will be drawing heavily from Duquette/Hyatt/Wilson's book on the subject as I feel it puts things in the simplist of terms.
When you think of ceremonial ( Read more... ) -
Goetia: Oboras II
Attempt number two. Now that I have accurate information and a clear mind I decided to bring Oboras again. This time I cut things out of the ceremony that I thought were too wordy or elaborate. I cut my circle down to a more modern circle of protection but I kept the Triangle of Art the same. I like having Michael in the triangle, he has always ( Read more... ) -
Goetia: Oboras
Tonight I have spent a lot of time thinking about what originally got me into hermetic Magic and that was the Goetia. Having worked with several angels and hearing several accounts of Goetic workings I decided that perhaps it was time to look back into this. Tonight I decided to call the 55th spirit, Oboras.
"The fifty-fifth spirit is Orobas. ( Read more... )
