Results Baby!02:24pm

I’ve had a bunch of music gear I’ve been trying to sell for weeks with no luck, including an amplifier worth several thousand dollars. On Wednesday it occurred to me that not only am I magician, but I have an exceptionally powerful Mercury talisman that I wear 95% of the time so why not use it to get this stuff moving. I spent about ten minutes getting myself focused during Mercury hour and directed a simple request to Mercury via the talisman to aid the sale of my items. As of this morning four out of five pieces are sold, including the amplifier.

UPDATE: Five out of five items sold.

Thank You Harold!12:33pm

I just wanted to take a moment to thank Harold Roth and recommend his business, Alchemy Works and blog The Alchemist’s Garden. He is always a pleasure to deal with, delivers quality products, and has been exceptionally helpful to me on several occasions.

Boy You Stop Posting For a Bit04:50pm

Boy you stop posting for a couple of months and everybody drops you from their blog rolls lol

Anyways, I am very much still alive and kicking. I’ve cut the Hazel boughs that will serve as my wand and aspergillum for Solomonic work (done at sunrise on the Wednesday closest to the Vernal Equinox). I’ve also go a nice container garden going with all the herbs needed for the aspergillum except for Vervain. Harry Roth is sending me some Vervain seeds, so the complete garden should be going in a couple of weeks.

In other areas I’m getting back to work on finishing up Chris Warnock’s Astrological Magic course and should be working with the material from Jason Miller’s Strategic Sorcery course as soon as I get some spare time.

This is very cool. Christopher Warnock is using one of the elections I calculated to cast talismans. I’ll post more on this soon as I want to do something using this elections myself, but the page for the talisman on Chris’s site is HERE and his blog post about the election is HERE.

Been Under the Weather01:09pm

I’ve been a bit under the weather as of late. As a result I missed today’s Saturn election. I figured in influx of Saturn energy in combination with an illness was probably NOT a good idea.

Saturn Kamea05:51pm

Just a heads up that I will be casting Saturn planetary kamea in lead, the metal of Saturn, this month. I may do a few to sell if I get sufficient interest, so please contact me if you’d be interested. Size will probably be 3″ x 3″. Cost is undetermined. According to Agrippa this talisman:

” They say that this table being with a fortunate Saturn engraved on a plate of lead, doth help to bring forth, or birth, and to make a man safe, and powerfull, and to cause success of petitions with princes, and powers”
- Agrippa, Three Books of Occult Philosophy Bk II, Chapter 22

A Word of Advice03:57pm

If you are an author selling copies of your own book and you smoke STORE YOUR BOOKS SOMEWHERE THEY WON’T SMELL LIKE AN ASHTRAY. I received a copy of a new version of the Necronomicon and a companion book today that I bought from the author off of Ebay, and the books absolutely reek. To the point I had to go wash my hands after unpacking them because my fingers smelled. I’ll probably post more commentary in a couple of days after they’ve aired out and I can handle them.

Daily Practice01:47pm

I wanted to take a moment and talk about what I do magically on a daily basis. The short version is not much lol. My daily practice currently consists of a simple single point meditation focused on my breathing and an invocation of my Genius Daimon.

The single point meditation practice is fairly simple in theory, although hard to do in practice. The goal is to still all of your thoughts and focus on one thing to the exclusion of all else, in this case breathing. When the mind wanders you dismiss the distracting thought and return to focus on breathing. The breathing technique itself is also simple and not hard to do. Inhale slowly and evenly filling the diaphragm first then the lungs, hold the breath for a moment, then exhale. There’s no particular pattern, just comfortable even breaths.

The invocation of my Genius Daimon is also straight forward. The Genius’s name was calculated from my birth chart using the Daimon Name Calculator. I personally use the Greek form of the name. I have a single white candle that has been consecrated as described in this Candle Consecration post. The candle has the Genius’s name inscribed into the wax using the burin. The candle is lit and the Genius’s name is chanted three times, followed by a brief invocation that is repeated three times, followed by again chanting the Genius’s name three times.

I plan to add daily planetary invocations as well in the foreseeable future.
