Valefor returned…with a familiar in tow. This one apparently takes more neutral energy and converts it into something useful for the household. I have one that converts negative energy into positive and darker emotions into more positive ones, so this one will complement my current ones nicely.
I remind him that I’m not very good about keeping up with them and apparently this is fine with him. It’s here to help, but I don’t “own” it. Works for me.
Hail Valefor.
Up next:
Hail Ipos.
Vapula came to tell me he will help me become better with some tools for work in the next week.
Hail Valpula.
Up next:
Gremory came as an entity changing between female and androgynous. She accepted.
G: “You will secure the love if a woman, though you will not know it (exactly when it happens). It will help you later.”
Hail Gremory.
Gremory wouldn’t elaborate. There are a lot of different types of love. She also wouldn’t say what this help would be. Not even if it was a single time or an ongoing type of help. Or even whether I would recognize the help. Could be something behind the scenes.
Guess I’ll see sometime later. Maybe.
Up next:
M: “…saving your experience for later.”
S: “Not much ‘later’ left, is there? How any cards are no left?”
M: “3 on deck, including yours. 10 remaining (in the stack).”
S: “You and Astrology do not get along. It’s too subtle for you, I think (the finer points). But it can be useful. Here’s how (you should go about it):”
S: “Treat it like a current to tap into. Resonate to gain what you can from it and lave the ret be for now (or forever).”
S: “You think of it as a chain, a leash, or harness (to limit you) to strain against and break free from. Find/use the synergistic aspects and leave the straining behind.”
Hail Stolas.
Shax returned while I was on my walk (still am, actually). He showed me a state map that had a very large star just South West of the center of the state.
S: “There. You will find treasure.”
M: “This could be a 30-50 mile radius, easily. I assume it’s stolen? (This was worthless and he knew it).”
S: “It is.”
M: “And what would I find there?”
S: “A person, a place, and a thing.” (He indicated there were several of each and something to do with Confederates, but not nothing else. Still worthless.)
S: “I would like to do sider this (card, agreement) completed.”
(Technically, he had. I nodded, but was a bit pissed. Baal came. Shax was still around.)
B: “You’re irritated.”
M: “Did he act within his ‘purview and avilities’?”
B: “He did. I could tell you where some is. If it is within my knowledge, I have the ability to tell you.”
(FFS)
M: “Thank you for tue explanation, Lord Baal.”
(He and I conversed another minute. Shax was still around, pretty pleased with himself. I sent him away.)
Hail Shax? You both imparted and stole a lesson from me.
Up next:
A: “I like you. You’re a man after my own heart. For do you not do these same things (or similar)? In less than two weeks.”
A bit of an off topic post here, but when the weekend chore nonsense was completed, I sat outside in my ritual space. The four current cards are displayed on my small table. Every few days, I typically thank them and light some incense for the four of them. I was considering doing this when Zagan said, “If you bleed on a candle for me, I will return it twenty fold.”
In what kind of timeframe? “Within two weeks”
Who am I to refuse? Burning now.
But this got me thinking about other things I’ve learned from some of those entities, as their cards were up and I was waiting on my lesson//wisdom. Poison energetic arrows from Laraie. Halphas giving me a demonstration of walling up an opponent. Haures demonstrating an enemy’s implosion.
They would give me visual flashes and impressions, to demonstrate potential techniques. When I’d ask if that was my lesson/wisdom, they’d say no. I didn’t see the full techniques for these and there are likely nuances that require practicing them to really get them right.
But those things flashed in my head as Zagan offered help just for turning some attention and respect his way. He obviously has plenty of magicians that give him attention. It’s because it’s not just transactional. Let me explain.
About the idol. Sure, we get the wine reference, but this wine is made in Australia. The 19 crimes were crimes that people got sent to Australia as penance for (among other things). Bit it’s also where they could start over. Convert a life of crime (alleged crime) to a potential lifw of prosperity. It’s a dead ringer for what Zagan is capable of. Right now, it is dedicated to him, the wife knows not to recycle it on accident (I clean my area, just making sure), and in time, I will turn it into a portal or gateway to some or all of his energies. Relationship hasn’t hit that point yet.
Thought I’d share. I’ll be typing this up in one of my other threads, as it applies. Sorry for the double pop for those that read both.
Zagan returned. He showed me an old, dirty vase that looked ancient and had layers upon layers of muck on it.
Z: “Not everyrhing needs to be completely changed. (He lowered the vase into a cauldron that had swirling water inside of it) Sometimes, they need some outer residue removed, to be cleansed back to a more original state of brightness”
(The vase came out as a shiny bronze, with small marks on it from use that were not removed. I was given an impression that this could be used to help with negative or unwanted traits, too. By bringing the person back to a shinier state, while retaining the marks of experience).
Hail Zagan.
Leraie came rightt after speaking with Zagan and informed me that his work in/for me was complete. He didn’t say what it was, but said paet of it involved shooting an arrow at someone, but not who or why. All right.
Hail Leraie.
Up next:
I had pulled the last two cards several days ago, after feeling I should when sending feelers to those cards. I pulled two more after dinner.
Then, I was told I needed to pull the rest. The rest? There were three remaining cards.
Up next:
Then, I got that nudge to do the rest. Now, they wanted their cards in a certain order, even though I only read the agreement once to all three.
Instead of individual pieces of incense, it was agreed upon that I would use my disc incense.
Myhhr, Frankincense, and Copal.
Now, I saw Focalor’s card and was reminded of someone that wanted a child harmed. We all know I’m not standing by while that fucking nonsense happens. A malicious, undeserving bitch of a magician was going to harm a child. I don’t fucking think so, Scooter. We also know that I’m also the type of magician that ACTS.
Some time had gone by and none of my alerting mechanisms had gone off, so they were either unsuccessful, it was mitigated by one of my measures (layered, numerous), or they took the sage advice of doing a divination before someone like me locks on. See, the “harm” may get redirected…then it’s self-defense…
Back on track, I asked Focalor (who came upon drawing his card) to help the child and renew all of the wonderful things I had done to protect an innocent child.
I really don’t know if that person is reading this, I suppose it’s possible, since this is a public thread, but the stops will come out and I will own you. Leave that (literal) baby be.
The “price” for the renewal was the blooding of the incense.
So, the spirits have agreed, my workings are already being renewed (I am monitoring), and the spirits have been paid.
Camio came to speak with me.
C: “This transition at work. Use it to firther working with more experienced (people in my role). You will get better, faster and the visibility will be good for furthering your climb.”
(I asked him a question about the language)
C: “That one is a transition, a gateway to spread further (into that region). Yes, I would do that.”
I thanked him and he flew away.
Hail Camio.
Furcas came to speak abojt fire divination.
F: “I wouldn’t use your table top torch. Not with this fuel. (I saw that a wider flame base is preferred to a taller flame - or me, anyway). That other fuel was better (smaller, less sooty flame) It is important to take care of your lungs when leaning into a flame(/fire) of significance. Let me show you”
(I was shown two techniques. The first involved looking through the fire, like a 3d illusion puzzle, through the middle part of the flame, wirhout trying to see the ends or base of it. The sexond was a projection into the fire, preferably holding a question before linking with and projecting into the flame to be shown what it will show.)
M: " It’ll take practice at this point."
F: “It will.”
Hail Furcas.
Me with retirned and showed me a technique for building a rock wall around myself. He jad me do it in tandem with him.
I reached down into the Earth below my feet, until I hit bedrock. Then, I called upon and willed that stone to build a stone cave/tower around me.
The thing he highlighted was that the empty space between me and the stone tower. Nothing was coming in, nothing going out. No connections could be felt. I would have to drill through the rock to make that happen.
Hail Berith
An interesting thing. As I’ve gotten closer, I’ve been reaching out to some or all of the remaining entities and seeing if I should get in, or stay in, a conducive state. There have been quite a few where they said they could give me a lesser token/lesson/wisdom or I can let it unfold another time for a better version.
Now, I’m doing this to make sure I haven’t missed any calls or simply gotten distracted, as I’ve had a lot of headaches lately due to my sinuses cracking while I’m doing the Taji 100 mainly outdoors or I feel like having a drink or two and don’t want to miss the call.
I think it’s noteworthy that not only am I being given options, but they’re leaning me towards this option or that.
Now, when called upon by someone for something as mundane as a lesson (or two) when they have so much more to teach, may seem like a gnat in your face in Summer. They aren’t looking at it like that. And I am thankful. I’m also giving them credit, since those that resonate seem to want to go the extra mile and give more than superficial lessons.
Some of them may seem that way (superficial). Such as, being instructed about each stone having a personality of sorts, a unique energy. This may seem like fluff, but the other, unsaid part was that one could find polarities that could be useful or baneful within each gem type. Could…color…the rock/gem when used or given… This isn’t an area I’ve placed a lot of time in, so, being shown something like that is beneficial to someone like me.
Anyway, my attention is wandering, since I started this hours ago and keep getting interrupted. The point is that they seem willing to impart substantial lessons even in this format and, in my opinion, want and like to work towards showing what they can do. Several have reached out for a grimoire in a year or so JUST because of this interaction.
Even with 6 cards remaining, it’s clear that doing something like this is beneficial and can lead to relationships and paths not otherwise thought of or considered. It seems like laregely a win for those considering.
I love these takeaways from your experience. I was meaning to comment yesterday, but I think this is part of the beauty of working with this deck and with the 72 (or 78 I guess) on a more “casual” basis.
I really agree with this. I think they are extremely eager to impart their knowledge if we invite them to do so. Really lovely work you’ve been doing. Thank you so much for sharing.
Glasya-Labolas returned to tell me he was taking care of a threat. He said it was his lesson/wisdom for me. I let him choose the incense he wanted. One was “pine”, the other, “mimosa” I purchased them at that Buddhist temple on Oahu, but these weren’t really “blessed”.
He’s protecting me and asked that I work with him further. Of course. Two grimoires from now, as I started another tonight that will take a while. Nothing " super edgy". I’m better than that.
Hail Glasya-Labolas.
Sorry, missed this somehow.
I could’ve gone through the Deck and called one a day, but I wanted to get a feel for the entity. Some were interested, but it was more of a one-night-stand approach. They agreed, they were willing to teach me more, but the chemistry was off for one reason or another.
Others used it as a way to show they have relevance, even if it isn’t really my path.
A third set, though, have used it to give me notice that we should work together. In some cases, this was a confirmation (like Moloch). I started working on a grimoire tonight that will take a while, maybe years, based on encountwra from this deck and meetings from a while ago (years, in some cases) that using this deck, in this way, opened for me. 10 entities from this deck. Some in major roles, some minor. Two aren’t in it.
So, things like this thread and doing the work aren’t just for Internet Likes. I followed that nudge from Mike’s thread, examined it, and found how I would go about it. It led to a thread where, according to the agreement, I could get royally fucked by any spirit that chose to. It could also mean I would gain more than expected, which is my current interpretation. 5 cards remaining.
Furfur came as I started walking outside, the snow thin pushed along by a light breeze.
F: “You can cause weather phenomenon. Connect to the Sky, the Weather essence, fees it what you want to happen, and put energy towards it. The more change that is required, the more energy you’ll need to put into the system to see it through.”
M: “And for thkse taking several sessions?”
F: “The it off like a balloon and connect back to it to continue. His can also be used to draw energy away from a system over time, which you’ve started playing with already.”
Hail Furfur
