This is a little shout out for the Olympic spirit Bethor.
Love your luxury handbags, brands and jewellery? Summon Bethor to lend a hand.
I summoned Bethor twice, and both times, the items that I had had my eye on suddenly dropped in price, making them easily much more affordable for me. When I came to paying for my goods, the company I deal with decided to slap on a loyalty discount, making my total price even smaller.
I’m a gal who loves her luxury, and Bethor has been nothing but forthcoming with helping me purchase my beauties.
Interesting, I’ve been wanting to work with the Olympick spirits for years, but haven’t yet taken the plunge. I even have Peterson’s excellent edition of the Arbatel, and the awesome chaos magick book by Blackthorne (which includes a “mini-grimoire” dedicated to the Olympicks).
I would also recommend the late Jake Stratton-Kent’s “The Sworn and Secret Grimoire,” which he wrote shortly before his stroke and is inspired by the “Secret Grimoire of Turiel” (which notably focuses on the Olympick spirits). He published it through Hadean Press under the (tongue in cheek) pseudonym “Count Abaka.” It’s really a must-read for anyone fascinated by the Arbatel.
And, if you want to go even deeper, BJ Swain wrote an illuminating article for the 2018 edition of “Heaven and Hell” (journal of the OTO’s William Blake Lodge) called “Olympick Magic and The Power of the Planets.” It’s chock full of historical detail, and you can find it on Kindle.
Finally, I would recommend Frater Acher’s recent book “Holy Heretics,” which explores the Renaissance and Olympick tradition. Apparently he’s also working on another title, which will actually be a working grimoire based on the Arbatel.
Okay, I know that was quite the info dump, but hopefully it helps!
Would Bethor be a good spirit to contact about real estate (when the time is right)? I want to eventually buy a nice home in my hometown, which is a very expensive place.
