Hey there future friends!
My knowledge and interest in actual/real magick was sparked by Duncan Trussell’s Netflix show Midnight Gospel, when he had Damien Echols on an episode, which I viewed around November of 2022. Despite many years of digging through spiritual traditions of many cultures and experimenting with many mind-altering substances, I had never come across magick as being something other than a silly superstition. But that episode changed my life. Magick is what I have always been looking for. Of course it’s from Duncan, one of my favorite humans on the planet currently. Pretty sure he’s the one who tipped Joe Rogan off to Terence McKenna, which is the first person I heard about McKenna from. McKenna has been a massive influence on my life and worldview. So thank you, Duncan!
I drank up all the knowledge I could on magick for about 2-3 months, after which I started performing the LBRP on a hit or miss basis. But even after less than 7 performances of the LBRP, something I had merely asked the Archangels at the end of the LBRP ended up actually happening. It was a massive burden lifted off of me. Honestly, I regained a whole other tier freedom from the granting of the request. I was flabbergasted. I knew deep down that somehow my magick had worked, even if it was just a quick (but sincere and deep) request made at the end of a LBRP.
Other notable successful workings include getting an out-of-the-blue check in the mail for around $300 during my first and only time working with Nitika and Damon Brand’s Magickal Cashbook. A few weeks ago I merely had the intention of doing another Magickal Cashbook working, and before even getting around to doing the ritual, I received a $50 check in the mail from the same sender as the first check. I read this happened to someone else on the internet. I should do another working with her soon since she seems so eager to help me with financial needs!
I’ve read quite a few of the GoM books, especially Brand’s works. Done rituals from many of those GoM books, but not as many as I’d like. I approach my magick pretty casually as far as lust for results go. Thankfully I haven’t run into a problem having lust for results yet, and hopefully I never do. I think this may be why my magick has proven to be effective.
Took me just over a month to finish the 11-day Money Master Ritual by Brand. No real excuse for the delay, other than getting high and spending quality time with my SO while watching the NBA Playoffs. I felt a little bad for taking so long with the rituals. I didn’t think the angels would mind too much though, as they’re divine beings and such lol. Ever since I finished the Money Master ritual about a month ago, I have been making even better money at my job where I was already making pretty decent money for the hours (I work in the service industry). I have absolutely seen a difference in my finances in the past month after finishing the Master ritual. It makes me giddy sometimes just thinking about it. Like…this stuff really works! How do only such a small amount of people recognize magick for its incredible power?? Oh well, more for us I suppose. Though hopefully more will be able to use magick to help improve their lives in the future.
I haven’t really practiced much magick this past month though, aside from some LBRPs for periodic hygiene and also some tarot reading. I want to do more magick, but I just haven’t been compelled to do much of it lately. Right now I’m enjoying the fruits of my magick and it’s wonderful. Admittedly, I am a person who is easily contented, so take that for what it’s worth. But don’t be fooled; I want much, much more than I have right now. Both so that I can give anything to my loved ones that they might ethically and healthily want and also so I can give myself anything that aligns with my true will.
I am interested in doing more money magick, but I read somewhere that Josephine McCarthy of Quareia fame says that doing too much money magick will annoy the spirits that you’re working with (such as the Archangels in the Money Master Ritual) and you’ll cut off that channel from working again, or possibly having any money magick work again. Does anyone know if this is true?
Also, my sun sign is Sagittarius, so I am interested in working with Jupiter, as well as his daughter Fortuna. Anyone have experience with either of them?
I would like to learn more about demons as well. I was raised in fundamental Christianity, and even went back to it once after leaving it. Thankfully, I have once again freed my conscious self of the chains of fundamentalism. But I still carry around some baggage from it, such as having a fairly large hesitancy to working with spirits labeled with the moniker “demon”. I know many of these spirits were once revered as gods (or rather, are gods), but I still need a little more education and time before working with them. Seems like I have some sort of drawing to them though? Even typing that makes me somewhat queasy about some kind of karmic debt from simply being ever slightly drawn to them, though rationally I know this isn’t the case. Well, at least as long as I don’t bring negative karmic energy to whatever my ritual is or to whomever it may be with. But that goes without saying.
Anyway, I know goetic spirits are very powerful. I’m just not sure if they’re too powerful for me right now. Or if they’ll bring more chaos into my life instead of doing what I want them to do. I was at my absolute lowest point ever in life only 3-4 years ago, and now I’m almost certainly at my highest point. Highest point happened from falling in love, and that happened while I was still under the spell of fundamental Christianity. So now that I’m back to my less chained mode of thinking and operating, I just don’t want to mess anything in my life up, as I am very happy with how things are gradually getting better and better (some of which can definitely be attributed to magick, but certainly not everything). So should I even consider goetic and/or cthonic spirits right now? Or should I stick mainly with angel magick and look into self-alchemy magick before reaching out to demons?
I’m sorry if this intro is too long. I just have a passion for these kinds of things. I love finding more communities with like-minded individuals (though not too like-minded, for our own good health of course! No echo chambers I hope). And if nobody reads this then I’ll probably make some posts about my questions within this post. If anybody does read all of this, then thanks for taking time to learn a little about me! I hope to learn more about (and learn from) all of you!
Peace
