Patience required

Things ahead look ok in terms of planetary elections, depending on the planets you want to work with. While in the case of one planet people should rush to make the best of it, most others require patience before we would be able to benefit from their increased strength.

The Sun is traveling through Cancer where it has no dignity. Best wait a few more weeks for it to enter Leo and benefit from domicile and triplicity.

The Moon is waxing and about to enter Virgo where it is dignified by triplicity. Unfortunately this waxing phase takes it through falling falling Scorpio, culminating with its fullness in exile in. Capricorn.

Fatality

As a final conclusion to the Mars talisman for protection, the man who threatened the woman for whom the talisman was made died a few months ago. The woman was notified by another who recently got in touch with the man's relatives.

So that's that...

Make Arcania Gramaye Again

Jesus kicking arse

I'm deliberately posting this article on a Tuesday in the hour of Mars, just so those in question know I mean business (and because they only know how to pray to planets by rubbing candles only in the appropriate day and hour as magical service to clients).

Ever since I began practicing the occult ten year ago I noticed many preeminent figures in this field are more preoccupied with their virtue signaling agendas than teaching those willing to embrace and make use of their accumulated knowledge and expertise. While it's understandable such figures want to increase their income by accessing an extra source of cash in this field, many have degraded to the level of the temple moneychangers Jesus so diligently drove out of the temple. In short, the occult is full of pansies who make use of their status built upon some age old material they've authored for a quick cash grab.

Working with Guardian Angel

"Go on, dum-dum."

Now that I’ve announced the Angels of the Birth Chart thing and I already went into details regarding how one can benefit from interacting with their Guardian Angel, I will detail on my latest experiences. The first one began late last year while the second one about a couple of weeks go. Given I’ve had more of the former, I will address it and may speak of the latter at some future time after I’ve tested things in more detail.

Back in November last year I did my daily practice as a communion with my Crowley-HGA and my “good” and “bad” angels. I usually use this as daily practice, instead of regular practical rituals, during extended Voids of Course or at times the Moon is not reflecting light. The reasons for this should be obvious upon reading Asteria.

Upon asking them for help and guidance I was told to close my eyes and relax, as usual. Then I was instructed to focus on my heart.

Mars strikes again

The woman I've made a Mars protection talisman for earlier last year contacted me last October telling me she's receiving threats from a 63 year old weirdo. The man went as far as to issue death threats towards her. He didn't assault her or anything, but more than often he would scare her with all sorts of verbal cruelty.

I told her not to worry since the talisman had worked superbly thus far. I recommended she light a tea light above the talisman every so often if she becomes too worried about any possible threat and ask for protection since that would add and extra kick to its forces. I mention this in my talisman class as well since I found it a good way of getting something extra out of these things, even for a short while.

Ominous Christmas astro forecast

The chart is set for my location at noon sharp, but take heed of this aspect even if you're living further to the west or east. Moon in Scorpio is not such a pleasant time for a holiday. I imagine families getting together in larger or smaller numbers and instead of enjoying themselves, they may end up remembering old grudges and settling old scores.

Additionally, this Christmas will bless us with a not so beautiful Moon square Mars retro. Mars in Leo can be tyrant or at least extremely bossy and the fact it's retro will probably cause people to boil with rage. They will probably release that rage in the form of venomous stings toward others so you can imagine this isn't the best setting for a holiday gathering. I wouldn't exclude termpers to flair as well, but I suspect the former scenario is more likely to play out. Nevertheless, do be careful and try drinking yourself to sleep instead of into a fight (like someone I know).

To complicate matters even more, the Moon's transit through Scorpio begins with a harsh square with Pluto. This should cast an underlying uneasy feeling of compulsiveness over people, somethig totally not good to begin the festivities with.

The aspect will be exact around late afternoon, early evening my time, just when people are usually in the midst of thir Christmas dinner, hence why I've chosen this timezone for the chart. But be aware of it regardless of timezone, especially if you start partying early on or party well into the night.

Too dumb to woowoo

"The fool is not fool enough until he's also priggish" is an old Romanian saying.

Idk why dafuq I'm even bothering writing articles now that one of the pillars holding up the WMT has transcended beyond. But since my struggle in this lifetime is to make sense of mundane experiences from a certain point of view and master them, I'll move on (even reluctantly, and do my best to be my usual self).

Now that the whole US election thing is behind us, it seems like a good idea to bring to the forefront the most stupidest magical feat I've ever come across during my ten years of occult practice. I've seen a lot of dumb shit over time, but this must be the stupidest since it was the the sensational feat of one who expects to be considered an expert in more than one occult field. The individual in question has been involved in the occult for many more years than myself, which makes this even more laughable.

The day following the election a screenshot of a certain fb post was brought to my attention. Said post contained an individual's hopes for the upcoming election results. Since Nov 5 was on a Tuesday, and probably keeping in line with his own age old tradition of making offerings under Christmas lights to the appropriate planetary force of the day, the man also implied he'd rub a candle out to Mars for victory for his favorite candidate. I also think this falls in line with his usual virtue signaling and attention begging.

Open for elections

Jupiter exalted and culminating, waxing Moon applying to trine

I've been thinking about this for a while now and so far I avoided coming forth with it because I felt my often busy schedule will distract me from the task. But I've made up my mind and decided to go through with it.

I'm open to calculate astrological elections for magical use for the following forces:

1. Zodiac signs

2. Zodiac decans 

3. Fixed stars 

4. Planets

5. Elements

6. Lunar mansions

7. Shem angels - will need to provide me with the half-decan to which the angel corresponds based on the attribution you're using.

Mars the protector

Some time ago I took advantage of a good Martian election and made a few Mars talismans. The purpose was that each of the talismans would protect its wearer against, aggression, violence, assault, etc. I then gave a talisman to each of the few muggle acquaintances I know who know what I'm into and agreed to wear those talismans on their person.

I know certain people would say Mars is solely good for attacking, but that's just narrow-mindedness. Being a god of war and fighting, among other things, Mars is good for both offence and defense since they're both aspects of fighting regardless of whether the fighting takes place between two people or very large groups of individuals. So take note, all ye self-proclaimed expects!

Anyhow, for some time nothing happened, which is good. I mean, if you're wearing a protection talisman and nothing bad happens to you in regards to being assaulted and such, you can consider it a coincidence. But I'm sure there are cases where you could've been lead down a path of circumstances that would've lead to you being physically attacked, yet wearing the talisman prevented you from going down that path to begin with.

Mars conjunct Saturn in Pisces

Recently I've been getting inquiries from people regarding Mars conjunct Saturn in Pisces. The exact conjunction will occur within a few days, on April 10 or 11 more exactly, depending on timezone. 

As we discussed in Asteria, the energy buildup will begin just as the two planets are in orb, meaning some days prior to their exact conjunction. They will reach their peak during the exact conjunction and the separating aspect will see the development of events that had been shapen by the energy buildup.

Casting in the past?

More than once have I come across people discussing the possibility of spells affecting past events. So far I don't think it's probable although at the same time I'm being open minded about it.

But at he same time I've come across scenarios where a certain situation required a certain spell and things started moving in the direction the person wanted even before they've done the spell. Then, once the spell was performed things started working even smoother for the person in regards to that scenario and its circumstances.

Quite recently I've been contacted by someone dear telling me their home had been under the influence of nefarious energies for a while. Things were off and odd and a particular object seemed to be the center of those energies. Since Mars was strong at the time, I quickly cooked up a simple but effective Martian working for the person and provided them with the exact ritual time that would increase its efficiency.

Mars the healer

Yes, I know! Mercury is well known for healing and the Sun is good for health! But why Mars?

Yes, I also know there's a Martian pentacle in the KoS that's said to be good for healing and I've used it quite successfully at times. Note that I've made it during an auspicious Martian election, not "in the planetary day and hour during a waxing lunar phase" (regardless of other, more important considerations).

But I'm not referring to that pentacle!

What I'm referring to is based on my lengthy experiments over a considerable time, some that had found their way into my late Mundane Body Magick, a book that will never see the light of day again because reasons. This is one of those experiments that have proven their success time and again, especially when performed during proper times. Now, I do realize emergencies can occur at times Mars is afflicted, but I've got a substitute force in those cases although I'm not going to address that now.

Meh astro forecast

The New Year begins with mixed planetary strengths. In fact, all but one of the seven classical planets is meh atm in terms of strength, to say the least.

A new lunation began today in Capricorn, the sign of the Moon's exile. It also squared the nodes so we should be in for a rather interesting fortnight. The Moon will increase until becoming Full in Leo (where it will square Jupiter).

Mercury has recently turned direct although it's still in exile in Sagittarius and slower than usual. Not a good idea to work with its forces until the planet at least passes its previous retrograde station point in Capricorn.

Venus election next month

As I stated in a previous article, Venus will be in Libra soon. As such, I've chosen the following election for the although I'm not saying it's the best one. I'm sure others will find better ones if they looked harder, but in my case in more than good enough.

At the selected time we see Venus in domicile, on the Ascendant, in sect, free from hard aspects. The waxing Moon in Aquarius, although in a loose separating square with Jupiter, is applying to a very tight trine with Venus. The trine aspect is partile and close to being exact.

Caution

Mars is currently in exile in Libra and thus it's very weak, but it's getting closer to becoming super strong in Scorpio. The downside is that it'll be combust for much of the time it'll spend in Scorpio. Therefore, despite the fact it'll greatly overpower the Sun, it's combustion will make its energies erratic. Just wanted to remind people of this in case anyone's thinking of contacting their personal pentacle maker (who in many cases has no clue of astrology) and asking for a Martian pentacle.

The good thing is Mars will be cazimi towards the end of Scorpio, which is a very good thing. One should take advantage of this (if their geographical location allows for Mars cazimi to be rising or culminating at the time).

Venus, however will be very strong in Libra at the time, this year unimpeded by combustion.

Street magix

Over time I've come across accounts of people who've done successful magical stuff while outside the comfort of their usual ritual space. More exactly, they've successfully undertaken magical operations while being fully immersed in the mundane environment. I don't doubt that and here's my account.

The following experiment has been successfully reproduced more than once so far. Truth be told, the success took longer to manifest in some cases, but no more than an hour. My goal was to banish certain people who were disturbing the peace from a certain area for good. In most cases it was a public park and the people in question were often drunked youths who were drawing attention to that area, a place where some of us older folks were busy enjoying ourselves... differently.

Debt gone

I know a man who used to own someone around $15,000. He was going to pay the person back, but he had to wait for longer to get hold of that amount and the other person needed it back badly. He told me his problem and I performed a couple of rituals on him, working with the Sun and Jupiter. 

The end result was not that the man himself came into possession of the money, although he'd end up receiving a certain amount himself, but something very interesting considering how spells materialize based on the intent. I talk about intent in Words and why it's very important in practical occult, something completely opposite to what many self-righteous assholes out there preach. But what do I know?!

Planetary weather unfolding

There's quite a few things going on for the seven classical planets in the near future. This article is thus meant to help those who also consider astrological factors when planning their planetary spells and rituals.

Possibly the main event is Jupiter being a few days away from entering Taurus. It'll leave behind its dignity by triplicity so people would have to check whenever it transits its terms in Taurus in order to get a bit more potent Jovian energies. It will encounter the lunar North Node quite soon though, so it'll receive a short boost in strength, but people can also use that configuration for a North Node talisman we've discussed in Asteria.

El primero

I just received this email from the last person that had asked me if I will ever write a book on planetary magick in Spanish. As mentioned in the article regarding the book's publication, that email determined me to actually write Los cielos se abren. 

Therefore, I want to thank N.L. for his email along with all others who have emailed me expressing their interest for this book! May your work be successful all of the time!

Los cielos se abren

Los cielos se abren: Magia planetaria práctica has been published and is available for everyone interested to work with planetary forces actively. More importantly, it is available for every Spanish speaking person out there because it's written in Spanish and will only be available in Spanish. 

I know, I know, I said I was done with writing. And I am! It's just that for some time now I've been receiving messages from people with Spanish as a native tongue asking me if I'll ever write a book on planetary magick that will be available in their language. I wasn't planning to, until I got the last message, then it came to me!

There's a lot of Spanish speaking people out there who don't speak English and most occult material is solely available in English. Goes to show how much them self-proclaimed experts, teachers and occult role models really care about spreading knowledge, even if they'd benefit from it financially... All they see are their immediate needs and it seems I was right about their narrow perspective in regards to woowoo, since it's clear it also applies in other areas too. Tough luck, dumbasses! As someone from around here whom I used to consider a dumbass used to say, "Should I give them my brain? I can't *shrug*" so that's that.
