Hello Wizard Forums.

I wanted to ask this question because I wondered how people, especially authors of magickal texts, refine and streamline their rituals, or even test the effectiveness of their rituals. How do you test for effectiveness? If a sigil/talisman is working as intended or if there is a better arrangement or something lacking which limits its full potential?

I'd also be interested if there are anh books on this topic (I've already Jason Miller's books) specifically on magickal theory that involved refining pre-existing rituals.

PS: I don't really know if what I'm asking is more chaos magick in nature, because I am not experienced in it. I mostly do Enochian and angelolatry work, but I've seen derivatives of Enochian and angel magick by occult authors, and I wondered how they simplified the rituals.

Thanks in advance.

The efficacy of a ritual, as I teach it, is a function of the effect it has on the heart and mind of the caster. Intellectual awe and heartfelt desire are like wings which carry the ritual beyond the material.

Here's a brief description I wrote for another thread. Maybe this will help to give you a little nudge.
