Dear friends,
I hope you are doing alright. I am very new to Magick. I am also very happy to be here, this place feels like a home.
Over the past two days I’ve looked to quite a few conversations in here and I took quite a few notes in connection to what I need to go through, which is a physical and spiritual transmutation of self.
From what I understand so far I should start with the astral self first, and then proceed with the physical self, but in the meantime I should start with the basics, which from what I understand should be developing my psychic senses.
I have a hard time visualizing anything, although I seem to be able to do it sometimes very faintly, but it’s more like imagining, it’s difficult for me to explain. I do however seem to easily “visualize” sounds, voices or music, in my mind, at will.
I’ve read in here about a book mentioned quite a few times, the Shifting Bible, on which opinions seem to be split, but mostly in the favor of the book, as far as I’ve noticed. I might buy it but I’d like to first confirm with at least one entity if I should use the book or not. I also think that if someone is looking for something it might be found through these entities. Even if a book doesn’t manage to help I wouldn’t lose hope; at least that’s what my compass tells me.
One thing I am uncomfortable with is the idea of commanding these entities. I don’t want to do so because that’s not how I am, I don’t want to address to them as if I’m above them, I don’t even do that to strangers.
What I tried doing so far was to stare for about 10 minutes at a few sigils, in the following order: Amodeus, Orobas, Lilith and Marbas. Nothing happened, other than feeling sleepy. I must mention that I did not drew any of these sigils on paper yet, I used my iPad instead since they can easily be found online in image format. That’s mainly because I don’t yet have the tools necessary to draw these sigils properly, so in the meantime I wanted to at least give it a try this way. It might sound quite funny to some of you, which is understandable. If I made anyone smile or laugh a bit I’m happy.
My most immediate goal at the moment is talking to another entity, it doesn’t matter which one, I just want to make a connection. Having someone I could talk with about my journey, asking them questions, perhaps even learning more about them and forming a connection along the way.
Since I just started my journey I would like to hear from other people, their experience, if anyone has any advice, questions, things they’d like to share or simply saying hello. You are more than welcome to come and say something!
