Evocation skills have dramatically increased since working in this current path. Not just that. I’m better at magic and I understand myself better. The question is why? Am I intuitively more drawn to one current over the others? Is it the methods I’m employing? Need to narrow down the variables.
Idea!
Old grimiore of my study of Chaos magik. Written when I was a newbie in 2015-2016. It lists all the deities, creatures, and basic practices from several different religions and and magik systems. I currently only objectively know demons exist. Lets double back and see what we missed.
The idea is to use the sigil method the first time with each one. Then adjust to add the practices from each culture they originate from. Use skills learned and apply everything to each other.
Evocations I have planned so far are either Deities I admire based on characteristics and lore surrounding them, or were vital occurring to people familiar with them.
Demons: Entire goetia plus Gatekeepers
Angels: Big 4- Michael, Raphael, Gabriel, Uriel
Vedic: Shiva, Kali
Buddhism: Guan Yin, Yama
Hellenistic: Hecate
Voodoo: Papa legba, Baron Smedi
Celtic: Morrigan
Norse: Loki
Egypt: Anubis, Ra,
Shinto: Amatarasu, susanoo, Raijin
Tao: 4 celestial beasts, 8 immortals
I’m going through the list randomly as inspiration suits me. Azazael will be my guide regardless of what else I’m doing just because he’s awesome.
After each encounter I’ll document which methods worked best in evoking them and what they taught me.
