My 72 challenge (and some experiences)

9/7 d15
My head suddenly started hurting in the afternoon, not very serious but also impossible to ignore.

evoke hariel and eligos.

9/8 d16
Last night, my head hurt so much that I felt like vomiting.

When I was sleeping, I dreamt that someone told me that those other great demons or gatekeepers (I didn’t remember which demons were actually mentioned here) could also help me “open my mind”, as if there was also a mention of astaroth. It was also mentioned that “there are a total of 20 or more” (I didn’t remember clearly). A total of 20 demons? Or does that mean I can start around day 20?

Afterwards, I saw a picture that was very similar to this one. The name Lilith stands out among them.

Is there a spirit that thinks I can start doing this? I searched on the forum and found that the ceremony about qliphoth is not difficult. Even beginners like me can do it, but the process is difficult and the potential risks and rewards are high. Dealing with 9 gatekeepers doesn’t seem difficult either, but I don’t think I’m ready and my abilities are not enough. Perhaps it’s just that I’m too worried. I didn’t do divination to consult my guardian spirit, I think it’s too early for me. With so many things coming to me now, I have a feeling that I am being pushed very tightly, with a slight pressure, just like they can’t wait for me to complete this challenge first. In the first few days of the challenge, I asked the guardian spirit if I wanted to speed up and summon three or four spirits a day to shorten the time. The answer I received was that two spirits a day would be great, don’t speed up anymore.

It seems that there is still a spirit, saying to me in a dream, ‘You haven’t come to me yet’. I feel a bit that this is my guiding spirit, but he hasn’t said who he is. Perhaps his meaning is not that I want to summon him, but that I must ask him for advice before deciding to do these things.

There have been no changes in the past few days. I found that many of the problems in my family’s life and mine have been solved within these four or five days. Our lives have been very smooth, and my family’s health has also improved. I don’t know whose help it was, but I feel grateful from the bottom of my heart.

Evoke hekamiah and zepar. When summoning Zepar, feel the sudden heat and inner restlessness.

9/9 d17
Nightmares. In my dream, I heard a person speaking very quickly in my left ear, but I don’t know if it was because he spoke too fast or because I couldn’t concentrate on listening to him, so I couldn’t hear him clearly and couldn’t distinguish a word. As I struggled to wake up, I felt like I was staring at the ceiling with my eyes open, and my body was constantly floating upwards, like a balloon. Because I didn’t know what would happen if I floated up (because it was a nightmare), I tried to keep myself from floating up, and then woke up to find that I had only slept for half an hour. I seem to have missed some good opportunities. But I don’t really regret it.

evoke lavayah and botis.

9/10 d18
Because of that dream, I searched for astaroth. I think this may come from her guidance and suggestions on what I can do next, which seems to be similar to her personality as I saw on the forum. If that’s the case, I would really appreciate her recognition of me. She is truly a great spirit who is willing to help others and enjoys teaching. I found out that she is number 29, and I will soon summon her.

My 20th birthday is coming soon, and I have the intention to take this opportunity to summon all the spirits who want to work with me and are interested in me. Now this summoning list has identified 5 spirits who will definitely summon, and there are still several others in the process of being confirmed. I originally intended to use divination to determine if the other party was interested in me, but I found that I couldn’t understand the divination results. In fact, if we count the spirits who have only seen names or prompts many times and have no other interactions, there are a total of nine or more. There are too many people, and I am also doubting whether my judgment is correct. It will be settled in the next few days.

Evoke caliel and bathin. I have been experiencing a slight headache since summoning Caliel.

9/11 d19
evoke leuviah and sallos.

9/12 d20
I know that I have shortcomings such as arrogance, impulsiveness, and lack of patience. I have always hidden them well, and these shortcomings have never greatly affected my behavior. But today, it feels like I can’t hold it anymore and I don’t want to hold it anymore. I am very hostile and aggressive towards others, speaking more directly and sharply, and I don’t even want to consider whether these words are inappropriate or harmful to others. I can also easily become angry.

I have also done divination two or three times for spirits who seem to be interested in me,

and the results of each spirit seem not very good. What exactly does it mean, they don’t even like me? I don’t know what to do.

I feel like the summoning today is a bit out of shape, unable to handle it as expected. I feel like I’ve been trying to hold onto it every time. When summoning, I am also more influenced by the outside world. I was already irritable, and this incident made me feel even more irritable. It felt like I couldn’t do anything well. I think I may need to take a break for a while, but I don’t have enough time. I will be busy with the final exams starting in December. I want to try to complete these tasks before the end of the semester and leave as much time as possible. And I also don’t want the side effects of the challenge to affect the month I was preparing for the final exam.

Today is really bad.

evoke pahaliah and purson. When I summoned purson, I was already in a bad state and was interrupted. I apologize to him for the bad behavior I did during this call. I feel that he is very gentle and understanding.

I’ve been on the challenge for nearly over a year , and I cannot tell you how necessary it is to go slow, you’re basically integrating both the tree of life and the tree of death, the changes can be quite painful. Do you as you please, but taking time to integrate the changes is almost crucial, just a suggestion so you don’t break or crash, this is quite the pressurizing process

Thank you for your reply! I have read your post several times, it’s really amazing :+1: :+1: And your post is worth reading every once in a while, as it is always very rewarding.

I think you’re right. This kind of thing cannot be urgent, it must leave some time for good integration. I have decided to take a seven day break from today, and as for how many days I will actually take off, I plan to see when I feel it’s okay and continue doing it. Although I am still somewhat disappointed that I am about to start resting so soon, sometimes I have to admit that slow is fast. And there’s nothing wrong with being more tolerant and gentle towards oneself. However, I still feel more relieved and happily think that I must relax for seven days.

One thing I did poorly was that after you replied to me today, I went to review your post and realized the true meaning of this challenge. Before deciding to challenge, I had read your post twice, but at that time I couldn’t understand your explanation of this matter. At that time, I didn’t delve deeper into qlippoth, and I thought it had nothing to do with me at the moment. Two months of entry time really doesn’t allow me to learn much. Later on, I could understand it, but I forgot about it, and when I looked at several feedback on the forum, each person’s final effect was different. I didn’t care about this matter until you replied to me today. My own understanding of this matter before this is that it allows you to face your own dark side and past traumas, and excavates you to your limits, and then this integration can enhance your abilities in some way. However, if I had to do it all over again, I would still choose to start this challenge. Firstly, I am curious about the maximum level of magic I can achieve, and secondly, my guiding spirit really wants me to do it and has confidence in me. However, I still find it strange how a novice can start doing such a difficult task within two months of being introduced.

Anyway, thank you for your reply.
If you don’t mind, can I ask you a few questions here?

Well it’s most likely like your guides are trying to get you to embody both your etheric self and your physical self so that you can tap into your divine light, you are basically balancing the yin and yang within you, through this challenge you become the Ipsissimus, and then you can continue onto the higher level practices and integrations, im half way through this challenge im on the 38th spirits I believe, and It’s like I’m already in the process of being sucked into a higher version of reality, and with that comes collapsing older versions of reality, the entire collective unconscious is participating in

We are the 144.000 Starseeds, 144.000 shem and goetic legions, Star clusters that will become the dragon in heaven, this is the ultimate challenge. Where you become heru-set, the union of primordial opposing forces. But this is not the end. After this challenge comes the full integration of the cosmic egg, the transcendence of the wheel of time as well as pathworking through the zodiac integrate the powers of the gods, and to basically become the concept of the pharaoh known as Horus, the 33rd degree principle of god consciousness, once you hatch out of the cosmic egg, you will become an astral angel which is the evolutionary stage beyond human homo sapien, and then you will become a god or deva. This is the great work. Becoming homoluminous or homo Maximus, if you are taking on this challenge it’s most likely you were chosen by the gods for what comes after this challenge

You may ask me questions but I’d also like to keep in touch, pm me so we can exchange contact info

Hello! I have sent you the PM.

These are the questions I want to ask:
1.I found that in the first 20 days, almost everyone seemed to have made a lot of positive changes and progress, while I didn’t seem to have much change. My own good progress and negative impact were not many times. From this record post, it can be seen that there was almost nothing in my life except for making new people and making life smoother. Why is this? Did I do something wrong? Have many of my summoning failed? Do you have any suggestions or thoughts on this?

  1. Is the degree and quantity of changes and negative impacts achieved by each person determined by the number of lifestyle habits and shortcomings that each person needs to change? If a person is already good and doesn’t have much to improve or change, wouldn’t they experience too many negative impacts?

  2. I doubt that even if I complete this challenge, I wouldn’t have made such a big change like you. I don’t think other people’s changes are as big as yours. Is it possible that only you can achieve such great progress and mission, and we have nothing to do with these things? What do you have in mind?

thank you

Well, how many successful summonings have you ever had in general

I don’t know, because I can hardly feel anything, but I feel at least half successful? I don’t have much confidence in the success rate of summoning myself, I just want to do whatever I can

I’m not saying you’re not capable of summoning, but from my experience summoning can take practice because most of the time the spirit will just leave if you can’t communicate with it. So I’d say it’s wise to start at the basics

Are you opening your senses, are you meditating consistently, are you doing devotional energy work etc.

Summoning spirits sounds fun and all but to be able to get to the cool stuff you have to sometimes put in the nitty gritty work, magick especially advanced magick like materializing spirits

But I also said this earlier however it can take time for these changes to integrate but from the sound of it seems you’re pretty new to this, for most people it is hard, scholars, philosophers and common folk throughout time have seen magicians and mystics as godly to a degree that most considered unnatural or unholy

Like from my own experiences with these activations I’ve gotten serious insights and enchancements, it becomes quite noticeable, I’d give it 2 months or something to really know if you’re actually doing anything and if not after that it would be best to consider going back to the fundamentals, if your intentions aren’t coming to fruition it’s very unlikely you’re casting any magick

Thank you for your insights. They are all good and sincere opinions.

I have always felt that doing this too early, and I have no confidence in myself. I actually planned to give up magick at the end of August because I am not someone who can persevere in doing something. I understand that I am not suitable for learning magic, and I am not worthy to work with those gods because I am a lazy person. I think those who have achieved great success in magic on the forum, those who can work hard for decades like a day, can themselves succeed in anything. Not only do I lack perseverance, but I also dare not spend decades practicing basic skills. How many decades does life have? I dare not gamble. (I’m not complaining that magic is too difficult and not suitable for everyone, I understand this is the threshold for walking with God, and I know I don’t deserve it.) Based on my actual situation, if I really want to persist in daily meditation and practice, I will have to start at least a year after graduating from my university. And I tend to think that ‘waiting for another year’ is a waste of life. I am impatient, so I want to give it a try regardless of the outcome.

And I currently don’t have anything I want in life, I don’t really need magick. But later on, seeing this challenge was a bit interesting, and after divination, I found that the guiding spirit had great confidence in me and encouraged me to take the first step. This is also something I find incredible, because I know nothing :rofl:. With a feeling of ‘although that road doesn’t work, I can try this one’, I plan to give it a try at will, and do whatever it takes to make it. But there was almost no change at all. Okay, after hearing what you said, I no longer have any expectations for the results. Feel free to try. Since I am in a hurry to move forward, it is normal for the results to fall short of expectations and fail, but I feel that this is better than nothing, at least I am continuing to explore.

So I still plan to continue trying this way. Welcome to come and see my posts in the future! :sunglasses: :wave: Thank you very much for your enthusiastic and sincere suggestion.

It is true, most people wanting something from magick think that it’s a quick fix, learning real magick can sometimes feel like self torture fueled by pride. Because we are building power which comes with piercing through the blockages in your will power, you are basically become a being of power, most successful magicians I know have had really harsh lives, pain life just chose for them because most people will not choose that pain for themselves.

It’s hard to get into occultism without feeling a sense of self help, if you’re still lazy, you clearly haven’t suffered enough to embrace self mastery. However lazy can also look like self preservation, but it seems you’re looking for instant gratification

You don’t need to spend years on the basics, I’d say 6 months to a year will help you in basic astral projection and astral senses, just meditating 1 hour a day can do wonders down the line. In fact you’ll realize all you need is meditation, no need for silly symbols, sigils, incense etc.

With Magick comes a lot of change, if you can’t handle what you are going to create, you should accept not having what you want because you’re not gonna get it without putting in the work.

If you want to be beaten into shape, I’d work with demons

If you want a more gentle guiding force, work with angels

Thank you for your reply. I can see your kindness. I had come to see these, and from the bottom of my heart, I thought it was better for me to give up, but I think what I need may be to bypass meditation. My meditation is really difficult, either it’s a never-ending thought, or it’s a quick fall asleep and start dreaming. I have had difficulty concentrating since I was young. At first, I fell asleep in meditation without knowing it. I thought I had succeeded in meditation until I stopped. I should look for any alternative or removal methods for meditation.

But for what I am currently doing, I will continue to do it. By the way, from my Tarot card email today:

I still believe that magic actually requires a very high cost. If I don’t succeed in the end, my efforts will be zero. And by looking at these cases, you can tell that you are truly a talented person who can achieve so many accomplishments in a short period of time:

Wishing you a further journey on this path.

Also, thank you for your suggestion on choosing a work partner. What I am currently considering is working with these spirits that interest me.

They seem willing to teach me something.

Rest Day d9
I will take a longer break because I started taking a vacation at home yesterday. This will be a holiday of more than ten days. This is a rare holiday during the long and tiring semester, so I must rest well. There will be no more such opportunities in the next three months.

I have decided to give up summoning a few days before my birthday, even though the entire plan has already been written. Indeed, I feel that I am not yet ready, both technically and psychologically. Although I did not make any promises to the spirits I decided to summon, I still apologized twice to them and explained my reasons to their sigils.

One surprising thing is that I found that my telepathic ability (I don’t know what it should be called) seems to have increased? Yesterday morning, I began to have mild diarrhea and a very serious cold. It felt like I was living in a dream, and it was difficult for me to reflect what others were saying when chatting with me. My body was also very weak, and I slept for 12 hours yesterday. But since yesterday noon, I have felt as if my ability to sense many things and receive information from my guiding spirit has increased, just like turning up the volume of the radio and listening more clearly. Unexpected gain!

Given that there are many interruptions and breaks required throughout the massive summoning process to allow for changes to take effect and integrate, I will prioritize improving my abilities in the future, and only make some summoning when I feel good. Although I really want to summon 144 spirits a day, :rofl: :rofl: this kind of thing cannot be rushed.

These days, there are still some negative personalities that have been amplified, and I haven’t found any good solutions yet. Some other changes these days are that my feelings and understanding of love and compassion have deepened, I can better appreciate the love others have for me, and I can better understand the feelings of others. I feel like I’ve dealt with some of the original emotional trauma in my dream.

Rest Day d11
No special progress or tasks, just recording some strange things:

Today I saw the sigil of Mepsitahl, and I haven’t specifically searched for her or known her. However, when I first saw her sigil today, I immediately felt a gentle and feminine atmosphere, making me feel that she is such a gentle and kind spirit. Later on, I didn’t search for her name to confirm my own feelings, but when browsing the website, I saw a sentence that mentioned that other people’s general evaluation of her was indeed like this. A few hours later, I randomly picked up a few unfamiliar spirits in the goetia list to see their sigils, and basically didn’t feel anything. I think either my abilities have improved slightly or she is interested in me?

About three or four days ago, I started experiencing pain in random parts of my body. It’s just a sudden onset of pain in a random place, and after a while, the pain subsides. I don’t know what the reason is.

Really wrote a lot :rofl: :rofl: :rofl:
It’s likely to continue today. My planned daily work for the future is to summon twice a day and develop the root chakra and clairaudience. In theory, it’s done every day, but in reality, it depends on my own situation that day.

One of the important lessons I learned myself in 72 Challenge is that when I feel like I’m in a bad state about something, it means I’m not suitable for it right now. Stopping to rest is not a waste of time. I feel that the phenomenon of my previous tendency to get angry and my negative traits being amplified seems to have disappeared. I’m not sure how this was resolved, maybe it disappeared over time.

Before the break, there should have been some new troubles about a week: lack of security towards important things and people, and anxiety. Although these two troubles are much better and more normal than the troubles that will be discussed in the next paragraph, in fact, when these two troubles suddenly become bigger in the mind, it is also very uncomfortable. Who bursts into negative emotions every day? These two troubles did not disappear on their own during this holiday, and I began to feel that it was a problem with my root chakra that had erupted. I originally intended to wait until these two issues were resolved before continuing, but I think these may not continue to disappear over time. I feel like I can continue working on summoning now, so let’s just leave these things alone.

The most important thing is that I often have thoughts in my mind that I don’t know where to come from, and I don’t think about that aspect at all, nor can I control the generation of those thoughts. These are all very strange ideas, sometimes those ideas make me feel like an alien who just arrived on Earth. Sometimes these thoughts are like someone talking in my head. The way my guiding spirit spoke since I was a child is different, it’s probably not him. :face_with_diagonal_mouth:I hope I’m not going crazy and there’s a way to control it in the future.

In these two days, my tinnitus frequency has increased. I’m not sure if this is someone trying to talk to me or what, anyway, I always say it in my heart when my ears are ringing: “Sorry, I can only hear the ringing, I can’t hear what you’re saying”. Then usually the tinnitus disappears after saying this sentence. Coincidentally, sometimes tinnitus occurs when I struggle to make decisions or think about problems but cannot come up with them. It’s really like someone wants to talk to me, right?

The body still experiences pain in random parts, feeling that the physical condition is not very good, and sometimes it feels like anxiety and somatization. Today, there is quite a lot of pain in the upper part of the head, and I feel pain in the temples and ears. Combined with the headache that persisted from last night until this afternoon, I really feel like my head is broken.

I plan to process the root chakra and the clairaudience together because it is said that if I do not process the root chakra and process the third eye first, it is easy to fall into delusions. Moreover, the root chakra is the foundation, so I originally planned to start with the root chakra, but my divination seems that I can do both together. So I dealt with them together.

(unrelated to the theme of 72 Challenge)

I didn’t see it clearly at first.

My guiding spirit seems a bit strange. Not only that, but other things are also very strange. Especially when I really need help now, it’s like discovering that your good helper actually wants your life. To be honest, I have suspected him for a long time, and even the first post I posted on the forum was about him. But I’m not sure what the situation is right now, and I don’t know how to figure it out. I plan not to deal with this matter for now. Various things pile up together, just like there’s not much time left for me to react and prepare.
