Hello all, the method I will be using is heavily inspired by David Rankine & Sorita d'Este's book, practical elemental magick, which is in the WF library and my own personal preferences. I'd imagine you can copy this formula to use for not only elementaries but also planetary or qabbalistic thoughtforms as well, but for my specific goal I used it to create a water elemental, here are the steps I took. 1. Prepare a ritual circle (I like to use the standard qabbalistic cross, LBRP, LBRH) 2...
Some simple breathing exercises before more entailed Breath Work (it also feels good to do before “regular” meditation. Whatever may be regular for you) Take a slow deep breath, take in as much air as you can through your nose and exhale slowly all the way till you feel like your lungs are completely empty. A) breath normal put your hands over your neck like you’re gunna choke a mf’er 😃 or do the international choking song if you...
“Holy” Water / Extra cleansing Used distilled water Add a pinch of Himalayan pink salt Ingredients and Process —— —— —— Add Lavender (you can use too little just don’t use too much. About the top of one lavender flower is perfect) Add A few leaves of Sage (about 2 leaves) or a teaspoon of dried sage Add A small drop of olive oil. Or… You can use eucalyptus oil (either works the eucalyptus just has a nice aroma but it also has alcohol so this...
Pendulums have tons of uses and here I'll describe them in more detail along with some basic information about how they work. I really struggled trying to make sure I hit all major points without making the post too long. If there's anything you'd like clarification on please don't hesitate to ask. Choosing a pendulum Pendulums come in all forms. Different materials, sizes, and shapes. I would recommend going with a metal one, preferably copper. I advise against using quartz, as it’s...
SOURCE: time_travel The Wonders of Time Travel... I am sure you have all wondered about Time Travel.... Is it possible? Is it real? Do I need some elaborate Time Machine? Will I be able to come back once I leave? Can I go into the future or the past?... ....I will answer all these questions for you! Yes, it is possible and real! It is very similar to Astral Travel yet different No you won't need some elaborate machine but we will make one in our mind. You will be able to go into the past...
So I almost never remembered my dreams - maybe once every two months But then I tried a practice to change that, and it's actually almost embarrassing how quickly it worked. Like, within 1-2 weeks. At first just whispy traces and then fully formed scenes. After 38 years of never remembering. Ridiculous. My dreams have gone from practically zero to practically nightly. 1. Keep index cards or scraps of paper next to bed. The reason you use cards/papers not a book is so you can throw away...
For those of us allergic to Abrahamic influences :) Part 1: Conjuring the Column Begin by standing and facing east. Imagine that you are at the very center of the universe. I don't mean to imagine that you have left your room and are now somewhere out in space, but rather that the very place you're standing is the center of the entire universe. Just as from our perspective here on Earth it seems that the Sun revolves around us, but from a larger perspective it is revealed that the Earth...
Rite for Preparation of 'LUSTRAL' or HOLY WATER: For use anywhere PURIFICATION is needed! N.B. This formula assumes the elemental quarters "many" but not "all" practioners accept as standard, if your practice differs it's simple to redact these. Upon your altar have a small quantity of each: SALT and INCENSE ASH, as well as a container or chalice of Clean Pure WATER. Face towards the NORTH, standing to the SOUTH of your Altar. Extend your Power Hand, Palm Downwards, over the SALT, declaim...
Making & Consecrating a Venus Talisman Hello ladies and scumbags. In this tutorial I will show you how to make a copper Venus pendant in 758 easy steps. Will it be as pretty as cheap mass-produced crap you can get anywhere? No. Prettier. Because you made it yourself. In the beginning of last year I saw a video on making copper crystals. The idea was new to me and it seemed easy and awesome. I tried it then and didn't get a huge chunk of crystal like in the video, but I kept the result...
If you want to hear my rambling version of this, go here. This is not a normal holy oil or an oil I recommend using daily if you don't want an initiation, there's a current attached to this procedure and it is a lot less of a magical lodge and more alongside the thought of "soul of the world" sort of initiation, the Chaldean oracle and other theurgic or goetic writings the like of Iamblichus or JSK could be thought of to be part of this current. I recommend taking the time to think if you...
As is traditional in most Tantric Abhichaara Aaiyyanist Practise, one must perform this ritual when the sun is completely set, i.e. at night. This is regardless of what time-zone you are in; it must be when it is completely dark from sunlight. (Please note: artificial light or candlelight is required when you write the symbols/yantra down as described below). Historically many Aaiyyanists choose 2 am in the morning to perform this ritual. When the sun is visible the positive energy of the...
(or kabbalistic cross if anyone searches for that) Obviously QC is absolute beginner rite, so this won't be any use to most people on WF, but if you're newer or you've just never totally clicked with the QC, this might help? (If you're new and don't know what the QC is, I've put an explanation at end of post.) This isn't a change to the ritual itself, but just how you conceptualise it as you're doing it. I know there are other variants (eg touching your chest or junk when you say...
This is true oldschool divination in that you are asking for a specific overseeing entity whether your proposed action has the winds of luck/deity behind it. So you might ask Jupiter about a business decision. This is Tibetan but I've used it with an archangel so shrug. Choose your own comfort level with culture mish-mashing, or DIY some prayer beads with a number appropriate to the tradition (I guess 72 would be good for angels). Invoke by doing one round of japa (108 repetitions) of a...
Hi all, I would like to show you guys an interesting bit of sufism. Lataif means "subtlety" and these Lataifs together make up the soul. There are different interpretations of this concept, changing from sect to sect, I will be introducing the Naqshbandi point of view. According to Imām Rabbanī Mujaddid Alf-i Thānī, a human being is formed from ten subtleties, five of those belong to the Command-World (ʿĀlam al-Amr) and five to the Creation-World (ʿĀlam al-Khalq). The five from the...
aka Protocol for the Establishment of Energetic Sovereignty Note – this is modular. If you don’t have a bell, tap a knife on a wineglass. If you don’t have anything that makes a clear ringing sound, leave it out. If you can’t use incense, use a scented candle. If you can’t use a candle either, leave it out. Doing all parts would be maximally effective, but perfect is the enemy of the good. You're resourceful (you're a magician): figure it out and adapt. I don’t have a bathtub so this is...
Natron is a substance found in dried-up lake beds in Egypt. It's used for ritual cleansing (it was also used for regular, non-ritual cleansing). It is extremely easy to make at home. Mix 50% salt with 50% bicarbonate of soda (aka baking soda - NOT baking powder) into a heatproof container, eg pyrex. Shallow and wide is better. I prefer to use sea salt or kosher salt because it doesn't have the additive that makes table salt flow better, but that's probably prissiness. Grind up if salt is...
Prompted by @Pyrokar suggestion to post stuff I take for granted because it might not be obvious to others i have had very little success just... talking to summoned entities in vision (I rarely perceive any responses back, not even as thoughts in my own head). i use tarot, but I don't "do a reading", I have a conversation. So yesterday as part of Helios Unbound, I evoked Queen Didas, mediator of Venus's energies on Earth. I had her represented by the Queen of Pentacles before me, and a...
Hello everyone, the idea came to me from watching a YouTube video. I hope you like it. The Pentagram Meditation What you have to understand is that the everted Pentagram, is to release Energy, and the inverted Pentagram is to receive Energy. Therefore, let's say you want to use the inverted Pentagram. You are going to close your eyes, and visualize the inverted Pentagram. Then, you are going to invoke the Pentagram. (Create your own authentic way of how you want to invoke the...
(Changeling is "A book of qualities" - each short chapter is a principle) 10. A WITCH TAKES WHAT IS GIVEN While it would be nice to have all of the exact gifts they would prefer to have been born with, the witch accepts what they have been given. They work to sense the flows of power in their world, in whatever ways they can. Although visual language is often used to describe sensory experiences, the reality is that not everyone 'sees' with their inner vision. 'Seeing' or 'visual-izing'...
I posted this in another thread, might as well make it a standalone post These are directional guardians taken from the Greek Magical Papyri. They are aspects of the PGM syncretic Helios rather than separate entities East: ERBĒTH. A winged dragon with a crown of clouds rising above the horizon. North: SESENGENBARPHARANGĒS. An infant child sitting atop a blossoming lotus. West: ABLANATHANALBA. A crocodile with the tail of a snake arising from the waters. South: LERTHEXANAX. A falcon with...
