Spirits don't give a damn about your earthly achievements

Some dumbass used to teach that spiritual authority is gained by enumerating your earthly achievements to spirits when conjuring them. More exactly, one ought to list such achievements in the occult field.

This, of course, is utter bs! Telling the spirits you authored such and such books and seemingly scholastic papers, working such and such system for whatever amount of time, even bragging you're in the R.R. et A.C. don't amount to crap from the spirits' perspective. At best you'd bore them with your long grocery list. It is the initiation one undergoes for entering the Inner Order that will allow them to increase their spiritual authority. That is why Golden Dawners are introduced to working with spirits at Adeptus Minor and not prior (unless it's some fake order run by some Impotentor).

Why curses fail

This comes as a recurring afterthought, something I kept thinking to tell people in general and potential clients in particular. It should make a good addition to Why Magic Fails, but it solely focuses on cases where the force you've set into motion is powerful, the ritual was done using a good election, etc. It applies to beneficial spells too, but by shifting perspectives, although I've spoken of spells in general in Words.

In order for a curse to work completely as intended, it must utterly obliterate a certain structure or structures. That is to say, it must destroy a construction that is more or less material in nature, but is the product of our material existence nonetheless. It can be someone's body, relationship, status and so on. Cracking that structure is not enough, for it will simply cause more or less damage one can overcome more or less easily. 

That's why a lot of curses have only temporary, often short lived outcomes, especially if the curses themselves aren't permanent. In "A living hell: The eerie twelfth house" from Asteria 2 I briefly mentioned permanent curses saying they're not a topic for that book. Perhaps I'll write a class on the matter at some point. We shall see although there's no actual need since I already have a class on that's covering one particular powerful kind of such curses.

More on Guardian Angel

I talk about the Guardian Angel in this report, as well as in this article. 

I'm sharing what Rudolf Steiner had to say about how this being works both directly and indirectly. He goes off on a tangent only to come full circle with the ending conclusion, but what he addresses during that extrapolation should represent a bitch slap to those imposing the need to "see" and "hear" spirits. His explanation made me realize why it is that I can "hear" spirits better whenever I feel my energetic body is less tensed.

And now I'm going off on a tangent too since there are also those who impose certain non-European practices have to do with classic European grimoires and have a fetish of being mounted. Therefore, here's this article by una ragazza molto speciale, addressing being mounted by spirits, also on a tangent. The reason for sharing it should be obvious in the fact the Guardian Angel isn't mounting you and would not allow any spirit to do so either (unlike what some allegedly authorized claims have bragged about in the past).

Life ruining curse effects example

What follows is the case of someone who was struck with one of my life ruining curses. Like all curses this course covers, it has hit the target and will continue to do so until he passes away. There may be times the will appear to have moved past the effects of the curse, but further hits at various time intervals will continue to pile up on the initial damage.

The curse hit the target some seventeen months ago just as the person hooked up with someone. The curse quickly escalated their relationship to the point they they conceived a child. They also moved in together somewhere with an expensive rent and he burned the bridges with his family, who had been supporting him financially and allowing him to stay in with them well past his teens.

Coincidence?

It recently came to me it often happened that whenever I had something pressing to address magically, I was contacted by people who sought my magical help for similar issues.

For instance, when I was casting for money, someone buzzed me for financial matters. When I was busy cursing someone, a client wanted me to curse someone else on their behalf. The same with amorous stuff, etc.

Is it a coincidence? I think not, despite magical acts often manifesting as apparent coincidences. But this is not a magical act. Instead, it's more of a like attracts like kind of thing, where it seems I'm attracting clientele with issues similar to my own.

Eucharist powers

Easter here has the longest preparatory fasting period in the entire religious calendar. It is also the most severe. The reasons behind this should be obvious, those who stick to the practice cleanse themselves more thoroughly, becoming more susceptible of sensing and experiencing the miracle of Easter. I talk about this kind of cleansing in the Angels of the Birth Chart report.

At any rate, the eucharistic is (usually) part of the experience of the the miracle of Easter. It should be the final step leading towards the ideal occurrence of taking part in the cosmic spiritual resurrection. There's a lot to talk about in regards to the mysteries of Easter, but that's not the subject of this article. Instead, I will talk about the eucharist and my experience with encountering its great power. For this a story is needed.

I'm not the kind to shy away from cursing whenever the situation calls for it. While I don't throw curses left and right just because I can and am generally better at it than your average occultist, I usually go out of my way to punish those who've wronged me and the few I care about, especially when the people doing the wronging feel entitled to do so (and I've come across more than a few of these so far).

Procyon election

Procyon is currently at 26°08' Cancer. This fixed star "gives grace before God and man, renders a man pleasing to the spirits of the Air, gives great power against magic and preserves health."

Thusly, fashioning a Procyon talisman at an auspicious time would benefit one for the long run, provided the timing is good. Also, it would be best to make the talisman for just one purpose, instead of charging it for everything its good for (as some do, which makes me wonder how they apparently work so well provided the its energies have to split into multiple ways to achieve multiple goals). 

At any rate, we see Procyon rising with the waxing Moon applying to a partile conjunction to it. The Moon is separating from a square with Venus and applying to a sextile with Uranus. 

For working with fixed stars you can check out my class that will also help you come up with good elections. Otherwise, contact me for an election in case you're willing to work with the stars, but like me you hate to have to learn from classes, hehe.

Demon duo

"Pop quiz, hotshot. Venus is in exile and going retro, but you want to make your hot neighbor fall for you. What do you do? What do you do?"

With the Venus post-retro article out of the way tis a good time to document the following.

I've seen desperate people buying Venus talismans made by wannabes when the planet was in exile only for things to blow up in their face. I've talked about it more than once. Same goes for paying someone to cast a Venus ritual for them when the planet is very weak and I've tested it for myself several times - the results can be tremendously overwhelming, the wrong way.

I've had success for beneficial purposes with Venus in Scorpio, but that ritual was specifically tailored for someone working in the sex industry. Even so, I had to select a very precise timing otherwise things might have gone tits up.

What do you do?

Energies of a place

Several years before I began occult practice I used to watch certain TV shows that addressed esoteric topics,  featuring various guests. 

One such guest spoke of a magician being able to change the energies of a place. In his example, a magician moved into a condo where junkies used to hang every evening inside the ground floor hallway and basically do their shit, creating all sorts of unpleasantness for the people living there. Some time after the magician moved in, the junkies were gone. The newer energies of the place, having been set into motion by the magician, manifested in ways that kicked the junkies out for good. Those ways can consist of police raids, tenants uniting to throw out the trash, etc.

These things can be done for good, such as presented in the script for my ritual for a home. They can also be done on a regular basis, through periodic rituals targeting a certain building or area. The latter will wear off after some time unless the rituals are anchored into talismans that have to be placed inside the targeted zone, but even so,  the talismans are susceptible to being found and destroyed or discarded. The former will be longlasting, even without being anchored into a talisman, at least until such time the magician decides to change the energies again.

Angels of the Birth Chart & Holy Guardian Angel

I'm happy to announce a new service, Angels of the Birth Chart & Holy Guardian Angel based on methods described by H.C. Agrippa.

This service is in the form of a 33 page report revolving around one's natal chart. Note that one page towards the end is blank due to a bug in the program used to render the document, so no need to worry about any missing information. The bug does not affect the calculations, solely the paging, so don't worry about that!

The report contains the native's personal divine names and the name of their guardian angel, as derived from their chart. One of good ol' Cornelius' methods is used for the calculations.

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.

Fantastic lunar election

Whether you're doing a Moon ritual, making a lunar talisman or a simple lunar petition, the following election is as good as they get. I would recommend using it for making a lasting talisman for beneficial goals.

The date is set for my location, but feel free to adjust it to yours. Also, you can juggle a bit with the chart to see whether the Moon rising or culminating will suit your needs better. Mind you though, depending on your location, you might not get the Moon in its decan although that shouldn't be a cause for worrying.

In the above chart the culminating waxing Moon is exalted, in triplicity and in its decan. It is applying to a sextile with Saturn and in a separating sextile with Venus. It's not involved in any hard applyig or separating aspects.

If you're interested in acquiring specific elections don't hesitate to contact me.

Fizzling out

More than a few times I've addressed the issue of spells eventually fizzling out, compared to talismans that are ongoing (or at least until they're decommissioned or destroyed). I also spoke of magical results not being permanent.

The two phenomena work hand in hand in my opinion, especially when the desired result has manifested. When that happens it means the energy set into motion by the ritual has grounded itself, bringing the desired outcome into the mundane. It has done so by navigating through obstacles, even smashing though some, the effects of which weakening it. I elaborate on the nature of he obstacles in Words.

Even weaker, it was still able to make things happen, something that drained it even further.  Then, after materializing, whatever punch in may still have will disperse either suddenly or gradually. Goal manifested, success achieved, moving on.

Soulmates, you say?

Over time I've been hearing of the term "soulmates" and its association with romantic relationships. The dictionary defines a soulmate as being "a person ideally suited to another as a close friend or romantic partner" so we see it covering more than just romance. Friendship too involves feelings, especially love, but it's closer to the ideal concept of love than the more selfish, sexual attraction type of love people involved in a romantic relationship usually experience. Therefore, many modern astrologers' use of the term soulmates to define certain pairs of individuals based on whatever synastry and/or composite aspects they may share is shallow to say the least.

True, people can think about finding their soulmate when casting a Venus spell to bring their significant other. That doesn't mean, however, the person the spell would bring forth after successfully manifesting is actually their soulmate. Neither does it mean that any pretty astro aspects the two share make them soulmates. In the appropriate article in Asteria 2 I talk about compatability and although some astro aspects between people can be considered as alluding to the two meeting and sharing certain experiences as being fated, that too does not make them soulmates.

About results

Time and again I've addressed magical results, lack of, or what stands against achieving them. People will come across that in various articles on this blog, as well as in Words and Asteria 2.

This article will tackle the matter from another angle. Namely, what next? What I mean is, what to do after one perceives results of their magical work, either substantial or otherwise.

Lots of people, both practitioners and (especially) clients have a tendency of thinking magical results should be permanent. They're not. The first reason for this is that any magical energy directed towards manifesting a certain scenario will have stopped doing so after the successful outcome has presented itself. This is in case said force was instructed to do so by the magician, but even if it that's not the case any energy set into motion will fizzle out eventually.

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.

Yet some priests work for the people

...and not for others' interests, as is the case around here (and I suspect elsewhere as well).

The guy with the cross in his hands in the above photo is Teodosie, the Archbishop of Tomis, Dobrogea region, Romania. For more than a few years now he's been targeted by the authorities (both state and church) and media around here because he doesn't want to fall in line with the local church and their antics.

Despite having been ridiculed publically time and again for his nature of saying what's on his mind and doing whay he thinks is right in accordance to the gospel, from both a religious and mundane perspective, the man went ahead to do his duty. As such, he recently performed a religious sermon to call on rain. The sermon was done on the feast of Saint Elijah, who in local tradition is celebrated on July 20 and is said to bring rain. Being in mid hot and dry season and given a lot of farm land around here lacks (proper) irrigation, his gesture is to be applauded. Instead, he received even more ridicule and criticism from the press and public.

Hail! Storm!

Following the previous resounding success, I was contacted by Iustin just now who sent me a live video of the current weather in downtown Bucharest. Not only was it raining cats and dogs, a hailstorm just appeared out of nowhere. You can see a screenshot of his video above. A few minutes later a downpour also began in the area I was at the time, closer to the periphery.

Both myself and Iustin have tackled the weather magically a few weeks ago in order to fight the summer heat and drought here. Considering the weather reports said nothing of rain for a considerable time, this unexpected event is a huge finger to the forecasters. It's not the first time I've shown them the finger and it's not going to be the last. 

Har!

Whether you're afraid of global warning or just want to deal with local weather issues, you can try the rituals linked above for yourself (then let me know how it went).

Open the flood gates

This year the summer heat struck in force earlier than before. I usually do some woowoo for tweaking local summer weather in May, but this year I've been busy last month (smiting fools). 

I had no choice but to do it last week. The results were quick and formidable, as you can see in this link - run translation.
