To me, it comes totally naturally. It’s like they’re a part of me as much as they’re something outside of me, but something that feels very familiar. It never felt like acting, more like tapping into something, which is what good actors actually do, I believe. But acting sounds like fabricating or constructing, which as far as I’m concerned is not the case at all.
I’ve had confirmation of my own gnosis or experiences through reading other people’s posts or watching a youtube video that came up just at the perfect moment. Also, the amount of synchronicities is just crazy…
The familiar feeling came with the spirits I’ve been contacting or working with so far. There are others where I get a clear gut feeling that says “Nope!” Or maybe, “not yet”.
I agree, i guess its more method. Have you seen jim and andy the great beyond? Jim carrey literally goes possessed to bring this man back to live and its utterly amazing!
Same way you start, you can also do a grounding to stop thinking about it. I dont really ever officially end them they kind of just taper off unlessi invoke the whole Goetia all at once haha, then things get interesting in my life
I did that before a job interview, the interviewer told me “I like your can do attitude, you are very energetic…etc” where in real I was a bit nervous, exhausted and hungover ! I believe the lovely demon changed my energy to others
so its like feeling the spirit is in you and also not at the same time? cause i have a Incubus and that is how i feel most of the time. My irl me also kind of changed too (ways of talking or personality )
Physical sensations: “Domed”, Relaxed, sped up, faster heart rate, slowed down heart rate, headache, muscles twitching/falling asleep.
You can also feel like you are going into character or slipping out of yourself.
When performing invocation as opposed to evocation that automatically means, the magician doesn’t perform the banishing ritual and licence to depart after summoning the deity?
Is invocation and possession the same practice or is it that they have similarities?
Welcome @peterr. Please introduce yourself in the NEW MAGICIAN AND INTRODUCTIONS area, and tell us about yourself and any magical experience you may have. It is a rule of this forum.
Invocation is a lesser form of possession, at my level they are basically the same thing, but the word possession can be polarizing, also people assume you have to go black eyes and be all out of control for a “true possession”.
