Algorab election

Algorab is curently at 13°47' Libra. According to Agrippa, for this star "…they made the image of a Raven, or Snake, or of a Black Man cloathed in black; this maketh a man cholerick, bold, courageous, full of thoughts, a backbiter, and causeth naughty dreams; also it giveth the power of driving away evil spirits, and of gathering them together; it is profitable against the malice of Men, Devils and Winds."

I happened to come by this amazing election by chance while searching for other auspicious times for my long term planning. Algorab is rising, with the waxing Moon "right on top of it" while separating from a square with a beautifully placed Jupiter.

If you're from my neck of the woods and want to give it a shot, knock yourself out!

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.

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.

Fixed stars practical astrology and magick

Fixed stars practical astrology and magick is the newest product I'm offering to all those interested. 

In the wake of the great feedback I've received from my customers in regards to the interest for such a class, I went ahead and came up with it. The term "class" is used loosely here since there are no actual lessons structured on a specific schedule. Instead, think of it as a tightly packed field manual that will allow you to perform magical operations with the fixed stars and constellations. 

Now, I've already written the article "Twinkle Twinkle: Make your stars shine" in Asteria 2 in which I've discussed the subject at length and we also wrote additional information about the fixed stars in Asteria. But none of that is necessary for anyone who makes use of the information presented within this course, in my opinion. I'm saying this because it contains everything worth knowing about the stars to work with them, alongside the astrological details that will help people comprehend the election time calculation process and make use of it, while the additional information from these books offers theoretical support and a greater understanding of the rationale I've used inside this class thing.

Spica election

Next Thursday is a good time to make a Spica talisman. Spica is currently located at 24*08' Libra and is said to be good for acquiring riches and overcoming scarcity, contentions and mischief. 

I've discussed the subject of the fixed starts in detail in "Twinkle twinkle: Make your stars shine" in Asteria 2 and you can find more details on astrological requirements for such operations in there. As for the magical requirements, you can simply cast your circle at the appropriate time, make the image (draw or inscribe it on paper or metal or stone), ask Spica to consecrate it for your goal while passing it through incense smoke, then place it inside a satchel alongside appropriate herbs. Then you'd wear the satchel on you as much as possible. But then again you can simply carry the talisman on you and offer the herbs to Spica during the ritual.

Capella election

As I was getting bored playing around with the chart I came across this election for the fixed star Capella, one of the fifteen Behenian Stars. This star is currently located at 22*09' Gemini.

According to Agrippa, Capella is said to make one honored and exalted before kings and princes (rulers, and authorities in general, I might add). It is also said to be good against dental issues and for general health and healing, depending on sources.

ASTERIA 2

Asteria Unveiled: Celestial mysteries revealed 

Has finally published by Lord Manticore. FINALLY!!!

This is the followup volume to Asteria, a work that branches out from its predecessor and expands on various applications of astrology in magick. Even though some concepts presented inside come with short explanations, the material requires people to be readily aware of it since it was explained in detail in Asteria. So if you are not familiar with those concepts you could read Asteria first or look up whatever information you require using various other sources when you come across it in the second book. 

Asteria Unveiled addresses both older concepts which it masterfully discusses in new ways, and newer ones which it thoroughly details, offering more than enough information for people to enrich their magical practices. There were cases where it was necessary to skip over most of the explanations and not because we're jerks or anything, but because they would require entire volumes and, truth be told, it would make a pretty much boring read anyway. As a result, we injected the text with highly concentrated small doses of explanations just so readers would understand the concepts presented. So although this book has less number of pages than Asteria, the highly concentrated doses of knowledge it contains would keep people busy for a long time.

Fixed stars experiment

Since there's little talk of working with the fixed stars in the occult regions of cyberspace and since much of that talk is restricted to several well-defined areas, I thought of posting this article so whoever comes across it and is interested in giving it try can take a shot at working with fixed stars. And since working with the fixed stars is restricted to working with the 15 Behenian stars and some constellations, as depicted in old sources, I thought of choosing a star that's not part of that group and therefore we know next to nothing of it from a magical perspective. 

What I mean is we do not have a clear set of magical powers attributed to this star, no correspondences or sigil and so on. Instead, we know certain things about it from an astrological perspective and so this experiment consists of addressing the star itself and having it do such and such things astrologers have observed regarding it.
