Mottled Musings, Magick Murmurs

I’ve been exceptionally busy lately (even though it doesn’t look like it by how I’m practically stalking the forum lol).

I performed a simple pentacle earlier, with Tetragrammaton incense. It smelled divine, but then I suppose it should. Drawn with blessed chalk in the sun in my back porch.

Edit: I should add this is not my typical method. I usually draw on colored paper with more fanfare in my ritual room but it was a beautiful day. I vocalized the words but a little quietly bc my neighbors were out, but we have a tall fence.

I wish I could upload the short video I have. It’s just ambiance with the incense burner up close but it was nice. Here’s a still.

Maybe I’ll get a YouTube someday to share. Actually I do plan on it, I’d love to make content and occult more widely available, especially with visual examples of rituals and more.

Well, until then, I’ll just journal cross platform.

It’s been a week and results are brewing slowly for about half the group hatred spell.

It will still take time to build up, but so far:

Target AL is spending too much and burning through everything, losing support systems. Definitely one of the easiest targets next to DN.

Target KR is still doing well, no overt troubles yet.

Target JN is doing well but burnout is upcoming.

Target DN is doing miserably, losing foundations and support systems. Another very easy target.

Target ND is doing extremely well. On one hand I don’t necessarily want to harm them as much as I need them to be part of the plot, but if harm comes to them I’m fine with it.

Target VN is slowly spiraling, being suffocated. I’m surprised by this one, I thought they’d need more oomph to see any cracks yet. This is great.

Target MC is doing somewhat well, but it’s shaky. They are the central target I want everyone to eventually hate, however, so hopefully things will fall into place the next few weeks.

I did a reading how I could accomplish further results if need be and the cards told me to play on MCs insecurities which seems so obvious to me now. All these friends and MC are in the same field of work, but MC is constantly jealous, very insecure of their own abilities and even once told me how much they hate the attention others get. I’ll definitely push their eventual fall with a nudge of insecurity, at least in the future seeing as I’d hate to overtly interfere with my own group hatred spell. I’d like to see how that goes, first.

I hope they all hate each other but it’s really to isolate MC to eventually chip them down to nothing.

I’ll probably check back in another week or two before I let it go entirely to finish its full work. How exciting!

I’m always fairly surprised by how quickly the Third Pentacle of the Sun works and how diverse it is. I have used this pentacle on paper before in order to get a lot of money, which has helped me get things I’ve been wanting. I used it again, as you can see in the post I’m replying to.

I had drawn it, this time, with chalk in my back yard. I had desired to acquire a few thousand dollars to get bricks to build a garden wall. Instead, we have been blessed by someone offering us, for free, the bricks needed as long as we drive and get it ourselves, which of course we’re going to do.

Way to cut out the middle man, haha.

I also, earlier today (sorry, no picture, I forgot to take one) I created the First Pentacle of Jupiter to boost my occult commissions. As soon as I finished I received a couple reading commissions, which is very nice. I hope it will continue for at least a while longer because some spells are cheeky with their one-and-done style.

Saw that thread about wards. I’m on mobile otherwise I’d link it properly (it’s a pain in mobile) but it’s still up in recents. I remember I gave a former friend a very powerful protection jar. Now that we’re no longer friends, I should remotely convert it into a siphon jar and steal their wealth, power, energy etc

It is my creation, under my will; they will no longer be protected, they will become gravely ill.

While I’m here, I wonder if one could potentially steal a ward. As in, the target has a ward or barrier, so instead of breaking it or going around it, one could change the target of the barrier to themselves. Or redirect the ward elsewhere but idk why you wouldn’t want a free ward.

I’ll have to test it.

Practiced reading a few demonic influences in a chart:

Born in the hour of Marbas: Marbas is a demon who reveals hidden or secret things. He can cause and heal diseases, teach mechanical arts, and changes men into other shapes. The individual born in this hour is plagued by thirst for hidden knowledge, by a deep desire to never be the same thing twice. They change shape as often as they change clothes, never looking back, but never forgetting the past. Practicality is nice, but learning new things to do with their hands, whether it’s practical or not is one of the things they may enjoy doing. In health, they might either get sick extremely often, or extremely rarely. If they get sick very rarely, then when they do it will be absolute hell for them.

Vapula over the Sun in 9th: Vapula is a demon that teaches philosophy, mechanics, and sciences. The persona is drenched in the desire to know the practicality and mechanical knowledge, there is a strong desire to understand, especially by way of learning through first hand experience taking things apart and putting them back together. Perhaps even a Miltonic preference for acquiring experience in all things, by way of learning through other’s experience as well as doing things oneself through trial and error. A combination of both is necessary and likely a source of personal accomplishment. Being physically creative with practical handicrafts that require discipline, such as woodworking or sewing is the likely choice for this demonic placement, however less physically intensive yet practical and intelligent skills, such as literary analysis and language learning are disciplines that are considered most “fun” to this placement.

Zagan over the Moon in 11th: Zagan likes to spend money and make money. Money is very important to this entity, especially displays of wealth and fortune, however he is also known to be able to turn metals into gold and gold into other metals. This individual is emotionally connected to money. Money feels good, and thus has risk of being an overspender. Likewise, money is important to them in regards to emotionally connecting with friends. They spend money on friends in order to make both themselves and their friends feel good. Sometimes they might think that getting a friend, or even an acquaintance or stranger a big flashy gift is going to win them over. They love to gain attention through flashing how much money they have and can spend. They are also very good, however, at utilizing cheap things in expensive and money-saving ways. While a big emotional spender, they can become suddenly very practical in a pinch, especially stressful ones.

Gusion over Venus in 9th: Gusion is a demon who can reconcile friendships, view the past, present, and future, as well as aids in garnering reputation and fame. Friendships are one of the most important things to this person, romance and sexuality are not as important, but it’s extremely important that the friendships are built with the utmost, deepest honesty. These friendships are also important if they help the individual gain social status, but most of all this individual can only make friends with those they trust with their truest, uttermost self. The friendships they need are ones that feed the soul, so to speak, ones that can have extreme depth to them either in the spiritual or academic sense. This person cannot commit to friendships with anyone they consider “stupid” or otherwise unintelligent. It is likely this person may drop a friendship over something petty over and over and reconcile over and over. Gusion’s guidance can help the individual reconcile and take second and third and even fourth chances. They are not necessarily gullible however, they are simply acquiring knowledge of an individual in order to better adjust the relationship to the best understanding of the other person as possible. It’s almost like trying to become friends with an alien who is always trying to examine you. They want to share everything about themselves with you and know everything about you, but each relationship is more like a social experiment.

Vapula and Gusion are conjunct: They work together in both the persona and the relationships this individual curates. This individual unfortunately is nothing without relationships. They do not know who they are unless there is someone they can reflect off of like a mirror. Likewise, they may be seeking someone who is exactly like them, or as close to exactly like them as possible in order to truly see themselves. They will struggle with knowing who they are unless they can find it in someone else. Their relationships, likewise, must be those they can share a philosophy with. They do the absolute best when someone has the same philosophy as them, who can help them move through the world with sharing experiences. Shared experiences are extremely important, as it helps both the individual understand themselves, as well as create a bond between the relationships they have. They love to listen to other’s experiences in a relationship (platonic, romantic, sexual, etc) and exchange stories, especially ones that are practical that will help each other out. They don’t like to share experiences that have no moral or meaning behind them, those can be left out and left behind. I cannot emphasize enough the importance of sharing experiences, both by way of telling stories, and by way of this individual and the ones they love doing something together, learning together.

Demonic influences are telling me way more than I thought was possible. And I know astrology can tell you so much about a person. This was an incredible experience, I think I’ll ask more friends and trusted persons if I can read a couple of their aspects.

Another Demonic Influence reading I did to help gauge accuracy.

I only read three planets and one Aspect so it’s not nearly as fine tuned as a full chart reading. I did this reading for someone in order to help cultivate better accuracy. The person said it was very accurate, thankfully! Because if not, then I would have to start all over orz.

Murmur over the Sun in 1st House : Murmur is a demon who teaches philosophy, however he is best known by occultists for his work with necromancy and power over the dead. He is a gleaming warrior who wears a crown upon his head, and he is preceded by trumpets. You may appear to be excessively intimidating to people, but in a way that brings forth admiration from others when they begin to get to know you. You have a demanding and controlling personality, but not one that is overtly domineering. You know what you want and like, and you are perfectly capable of articulating that without bullshit. Murmur knowledgeable in necromancy may lead your immediate, surface desires into darker or more taboo areas of life. You know what you know, and know what you don’t know, again with very little bullshitting, and find good middle ground between admitting when you don’t know something as well as being able to find someone who Does know what they’re talking about in order to help you or help someone else succeed. You seem to also admire the fine details, going back into his philosophical roles. The details are what help give life its flavors, so enjoying and/or questioning all the small things could be a source of “fun” for you.

Bune over Moon in 9th House : Bune is another Necromantic demon. You may be attached to material objects emotionally, and find deep sentimentality. You may also find yourself deeply attached to money, perhaps preferring to hoard money rather than spend it, in order to make yourself feel good or better. Thankfully it doesn’t seem you will have any problems with overspending, but perhaps you might get too attached to objects and it may make you seem shallow or materialistic to others as a negative thing. It doesn’t have to be and you can find people who are fine with how you are. Bune is also a demon evoked for keeping the peace between individuals. In the 9th house, Bune may influence your life towards being able to read people’s deeper emotions, not necessarily being an empath but being particularly attuned to other people’s needs and utilizing material objects to help soothe or satisfy them. The deep sentimentality here, you probably take a lot of time and effort finding something for someone else to be emotionally attached to as a gift. Bune is a bit of a dreamer, and may like to influence you to get to know someone’s dreams, desires, and pleasures to better help you emotionally connect with them.

Cimejes over Mercury in 1st House : Cimejes is a demon who helps people become soldier-like and masculine, even dominant, but helps prevent domineering natures, as soldiers are still meant to work together as a unit, as a group. He teaches rhetoric, logic, and speech. He opens the channels for excellent communication, and he may be immensely helpful in that Mercury Retrogrades might not affect you nearly as much as others in regards to communicating with others. He helps influence you to speak clearly, concisely, and with precision to exactly what you mean. Communication here, he influences, is exceptionally important to you. Opening channels for communication is first and foremost, to both get to know someone but also make sure you are well understood as completely as possible. Here it also seems that, while details are important to you regarding Murmur’s influence, you can also know and understand when details can be ignored or are unimportant to communicate, especially so that you don’t waste time, breath, or energy going on and on about a subject, or spend too much time in an area that doesn’t need the effort.

Cimejes and Bune Work Together : Where Bune may help you cultivate sentimentality to certain objects, especially to help you get to know others, Cimejes helps you understand the details as to why so you can better understand who you are with. Cimejes inadvertently helps you obtain philosophical knowledge in this way, cultivating an understanding of other people through the material objects they accumulate, their collection hobbies, as well as helps you communicate with another person to find exactly what it is that can make them feel. Not just happy, just help them feel in general, whether that means helping someone else get a good cry through watching a favorite movie, or helping them understand themselves better through trinkets.

I’ve been wanting to write about this specifically for some time. It’s been a couple years, but I think I can articulate it well enough.

At night I had contacted Beelzebub. I wanted to know more about the fire in my back and chest, the fact it feels like my skin could just melt away and I could be something totally different. I’ve felt it before, at least something similar, like my spine could slither out of my body and it turns out that feeling was that of a snake. I’ve felt it for a very long time, for years. I had even looked into therian, otherkin, and alterhuman communities but this feeling didn’t perfectly fit the phantom limb that otherkin and spiritually inhuman or possessed people felt. This was different. It wasn’t that I wasn’t human, or that I was meant to be nonhuman, rather it was simply a manifestation of my soul. I could feel it. That semantic was important.

It had eventually began to feel like a snake. Slithering inside me, but at the same time it was me. It was my spine, trying to be shaken out of my body. I looked, just in case, at medical reasons this could be happening, as I like to make sure to check off the mundane before I immediately jump to spiritual things. But again, the symptoms didn’t perfectly match and, while I had a slight (fixable) curve in my spine a doctor confirmed, it wasn’t caused by that.

I evoked Beelzebub into a mirror, concentrating. It was actually my first mirror scrying, and I could see him so clearly, so perfectly, in the dark with the candle into the mirror. He had the face of an elderly man mixed with a primate, and classic “devil horns” on his head. His face blinked in the mirror as I communicated, and I fell into a trance, appearing in the astral before him. I asked him about it, and he confirmed it was my restless spirit needing to be released. I asked him, as a demon of transformation, what I should do, and he guided me into deeper trance.

A few times after that, I would perform a simple ritual. I learned that, in certain rituals, movement is how I fall into trance the best, not unlike the movement of a snake. I would fall into the astral, I would kneel and lower my face andhead into the floor, covering my eyes, and my spine would slither out, transformed into the snake, my human body but an empty shell as I saw the world through my spirit’s eyes.

When I joined this forum perhaps a month ago, a few members mentioned my godform in the scanning thread as a snake, to which I was pleasantly surprised.

As Beelzebub guided me, my form would take shape. In one sequence, I slithered through tall prarie grass like a sea of gold. My spirit wove through the grass, and I was met with the spirit of my enemy at the time. Beelzebub guided me there to take my revenge. So I opened my mouth and bit them on the ankle. Realizing I was venomous (or perhaps I became venomous) I released toxins into their ankle, and I slithered backwards, suddenly back into my physically human body. I cursed and poisoned their relationships, everything they had fell apart, everyone hated them, even their gods.

At another time, I began to have a slightly different feeling, as if in my shoulder blades, as though something should burst from them. I refused to think of it as wings. To be honest, that just always feels cringey to me, to think I’m special enough to have celestial features in any way. But sometimes things just turn out that way. As someone who also hates the idea of destiny and fate, that, too, haunts me through Shakespearean Dramatic Irony.

As I evoked Beelzebub once more, this time through a new, black mirror I acquired just for this kind of work, I saw his visage, then plumage growing from his face as it turned, transformed into the vague figure of a bird, and the longer I sat the more it became, and I saw a very haunting, very real image of a solid white cockatiel turn towards me with jarring, jagged movements, like a machine that hadn’t been oiled. It frightened me at first because I’ve never seen such clarity through the mirror before, but it made sense in that moment.

I made a super sigil made of multiple written lines all combined into one. I put up a small altar, burning a candle and oil I made, I meditated for about half an hour uncomfortably before in trans my spirit finally released, cracking open from my back like an egg. It was a normal cockatiel with the yellow feathers and the red cheeks.

Beelzebub is a very wise demon. His help with transfiguration, soul manifestation, and godforming is above and beyond.

I’ve been keeping track of my spells and rituals for a while. I need to update and add all my recent workings, though. Thankfully I do journal them when I make them so I don’t have to rely solely on memory, I just like to refine them when I put them in my digital grimoire for future use.

Another look at the group curse.

Everyone is starting to do miserably or much worse than before. ND, KR, and JN are still doing a bit well, but worse than before. Maybe I can fracture them a little more just to make the push on all seven targets harder. VN and MC are indefinitely doing much worse, which is great. They’re my central targets, the whole group would be nice to fuck up but I’m specifically dividing this group of people in order to entirely isolate MC and VN so they won’t have a support system after destroying each other.

I also checked in on a curse I cast last year. The person, VT, is doing a little OK but they will definitely be having a hard crash again soon. The curse I’ve placed on them last time is one so that they squander every opportunity, lose sight of regulation, and fail due to obsessive excess. To be very brief and vague. Perhaps I’ll share it since it’s been going on for 3 years successfully. They’ve been fired countless times and it looks like another failure is brewing up.

I do love when curses go well.

I also did another planetary pentacle recently, we’ll see how that one goes.

It’s been a while. I haven’t been publicly journaling as per the preference of my relationship to my ancestral gods and the protection of sacred practices I have been taught.

I’ve been working daily which has just been a bit more import than showing off online. At times I do wish I could share with others, but I know if I do much of the work, either sacred to my people or simply hard work to discover new techniques, would be stolen. Thus I’ve been quiet.

On the latter, techniques I have made or discovered, I have been writing bits and pieces down I would eventually like to publish, at least that way I have my name on it as a minor source of income. But beyond that, I’m keeping my sacred practices to myself and my community. Such is life.

Working with a being I can share somewhat however:

The Vampire has been teaching me quite a lot regarding magic and energy work. I had been given a reading done time ago saying my solar plexus was blocked. The Vampire confirmed and gave me several exercises not only to restore it, but to overall train my magic prowess, fine tune it, especially for astral spellcasting.

It will eventually come back around to actual vampirism but I had requested his mentorship in other areas, as well. It’s good to get back into working with him. I had worked with him for a few years but all of last year I essentially took a full magic break to finish my academic studies. Now I’m Free™ and have all the time in the world.

Edit to add: This isn’t about anyone on BALG

Lol someone with barely a year of experience has been waving their metaphorical dick around and trying to suppress others for telling them they’re Not actually hot shit. Don’t cross someone who has far more practice than you. They’re lucky I’m going light on them. It’s just a binding curse to force them to choke on their ego and get snuffed out by the community. Eat shit and learn better.

I saw the beginning results of this curse first hand and was fairly impressed if I do say so myself. Again, it’s not a big curse, mostly just a binding I made when I was mad at the time.

For additional context, someone in another community was being exceptionally rude and specifically insulted me while insisting they were all powerful despite only practicing for a very short time (the latter I’m used to and usually roll my eyes at, but seriously? you need to talk down to me and others to feel better about yourself? lol).

Thus the binding played on the target’s insecurities and currently they are backpedaling and facing backlash from others. Usually when someone acts out like that, they are extremely insecure. I hope this will push them to take a good, hard look at themselves. And if not, oh well, they’ll feel worse. Mercury Retrograde is really fuckin around with people’s communication rn I guess. I’m just sitting here watching it all go up in flames now lol

It reminds me of a time I actually took an apprentice, and after I said the apprentice was being a bigot for calling someone a slur she tried to curse me (after only 3 months of learning basic magic). Not only did her curse not work at all, I cursed her back for everyone to hate her, and she lost everyone she loved (all her family, friends, boyfriend, and was kicked out). I could very well have done worse and I hope she knows that.

It’s been a while, and I’ve done several workings i simply haven’t written or posted about, but here’s one I feel I can post.

I did a working calling Archangel Michael, Och, and Nakiel in tandem with creating and consecrating a pentacle of the Sun. Probably my favorite pentacle, as it’s worked tremendously before. Even the talisman by itself without additional ritual is amazing; i gave one to my friend so they could copy and do it themselves but they ended up not needing to, the one I gave them allotted them enough money and opportunity to finally buy a good, reliable car within the week despite trying all year.

We’ll see how this one will manifest, as I wrote and burned my petitioned desire written in gold acrylic on black linen paper.

I also recently re-cursed a long-time curse target. The ones I have in place are still in effect but i want to build more. I petitioned Marbas, knowing a few things about my target I was reminded of:

  1. they have a uterus
  2. they have a fallopian tube insertion to prevent pregnancy
  3. it broke and the damage has been causing them tremendous pain for years on their period
  4. they cannot get a hysterectomy due to laws in the area

I did a reading on them to see what I can curse. It appears new pregnancy may be in their future. I asked Marbas to rot their uterus, to cause them pain and force them to be unable to fix it. I hate the laws of my area, but I can use those laws to destroy my target much more deeply than I have before. Marbas divined to me this can begin the next day. It has been a week and I have specifically avoided thinking about them in order to allow the work to manifest. I have a friend who hates them as much as I do but has connections to tell me about them so I will update both this curse and my Sunday petition when the time is right.

Made a new journal for posting specific recipes, spells, etc

I’ve taken up worshiping an old god again, and trying to get the right things to properly worship him. I have feathers and a basin, though doing research in both english and spanish is minimal simply due to the rarity of his existence, but i am glad to (re)add him to my pantheon. im planning a devotional artwork to him, especially now that ive acquired a beautiful set of deep paints. i probably won’t share much else about him, but it’s a time of year where my workings shift around again.

The recent sun pentacle working is doing great, but I’m still waiting for final results. I will have to see how the curse is doing. I honestly forgot I’ve done one, so I’ll either ask a friend if they heard anything or I’ll do a reading later. I’m certain it worked, I’d just like to know how it manifested. The person I cursed I’ve cursed many times before, each one worked incredibly well but in interesting ways.

A curse I’ve done some time ago (before joiining BALG I think?) ended up making them move far away from me and my friends at the time, which is great. I’ll be working on a slowburn series of curses to make them lose everything now that they are so far away from everyone (not just me and my friends, but their friends as well, so no one can help them if they are in trouble).

The god I’ve begin working with again has been magnificent. He is both cataclysmic destruction as well as gentle return. A god of death, knowledge, wisdom, earthly things, and the spark of life inside all living things. He has many, many more aspects to him, but I won’t share them here. He is a surprisingly gentle god, and very confident. His holiday is coming up, as well. I have drafted a painting for him that I would love to add to his altar. He feels like home.

To update a few other things I’ve posted:

A lot of people lost faith in this person and the community eventually shut down. It basically imploded from what I understand. The community really sucked, but I left it not long after I cursed the person. There was another person in that community that I cursed:

They went silent for a long time before the community finally just collapsed on itself. They were usually a talkative individual, so I guess whatever I did either had internal conflicts among those mods or something else. Regardless, both of these worked well. Glad I don’t have to deal with them anymore.

Next:

It’s been a long time since I bothered to think about these people but to my understanding, they have lost pretty much everyone around them. While I would have enjoyed if everyone would have been destructed, instead they all just sort of drifted apart. Which is fine, probably the extent of this curse among so many people anyway.

I have one last belonging to the individual I wanted to destroy, so I might use it and burn it for one final “fuck you” curse.

I did a brief reading just now, and it looks pretty rough:

They’ve become extremely lazy with no effort to move themselves forward. While they have friends willing to help them, they’ve been stewing by themselves, unwilling to accept help and being generally a coward about their situation. They’ve been extremely indecisive (a quality I prodded knowing it is a major weakness of theirs). It looks like they’ve either been suffering deep bigotries or prejudice against them (which is possible) or that they have become extremely reclusive. Probably both, actually, since I know about them and most of their general situation IRL. They have been receiving a long streak of misfortune since I’ve cursed them.

This one was interesting:

They have become an extremely toxic couple. They refuse to tell each other their problems with one another, don’t respect each other’s sexual boundaries, they’re holding on to each other without actually being passionate for one another or caring about each other. They try to support each other in their individual endeavors, but they’re extremely jealous of each other and it keeps showing. As far as I’m aware they’re still together, but they’ve been destroying each other. Their toxicity last I checked had been putting a huge damper on their relationship.

Alright, I think that’s everything I needed to update on. I’ve just been lazy lol
