I’ve split this portion of my working out from my other journal as this will be a project of its own.
My intentions with this project is to walk through and experience the entirely of the Goetia in essentially a form of the 72 Goetic Challenge. I will be utilizing the Daemonolatry Goetia by S. Connolly for the enns she has written for each demon as well as their partial summaries to assist with pathworking.
Traditionally, this is a ritual of evocation. Due to lifestyle and living arrangements, I will be performing invocations and pathworking instead as this is familiar and accessible for me to do. My ritual space will include the following:
- Hand-drawn sigil with black permanent marker on white index card complete with name at the top and enn at the bottom. No circle.
- Corresponding incense as listed within aforementioned ritual book.
- Candle to assist with lighting, however not specialized for the demon in the ritual.
I will chant each enn into a trance state while gazing at the sigil in my hand. Once I feel confident that I’ve been acknowledged, and my mind is completely clear, I will set the sigil down and close my eyes. The pathworking will largely be lead by the imagery and sensation that comes to me. Within the space, I will visualize a vague humanoid figure, should the demon choose to present itself in a form that is comprehensible to me.
There is no need nor intention to ask a request of any of them. My purpose is to inquire and experience all facets of this pantheon without bias, in effort to creative a personal distinction of my own. Should I feel the need of a request, I shall ask and update the entry should it come to completion by the time I finish this challenge.
