No it’s still as fresh as yesterday. It’s my business. I buy all my semi precious stones in Chinatown manila from the taiwanese. Then I make bracelets and necklaces with the stones. I did have to learn the actual rules for traditional Feng Shui jewelery from the Filipino Chinese, there are alot of little rules like there must be an odd number of stones, usually there is a chi force activating charm too. But the properties and combinations of the stones I could do by instinct. Bizzare. My work sells out fast. Even my Chinese customers ate surprised because they cannot believe a foreigner could know it so well. They usually look for a flaw and discover there isn’t one and then buy from me.
I’ve experimented with clairsenses with possession with Prince Orobas. That actually had real results. I would allow light possession during spirit work sessions with him to learn how to see and hear spirits. I can say it was like one minute I couldn’t hear them worth a damn and after several months of work, I finally could.
Yes the possession theory has strong possibilities.
Damn that’s impressive. Well I wont derail your journal any more with this, as I have nothing more to add. But its something I’m absolutely interested in learning more about over time. If I do gain more insights on this, I’d be happy to let you know
I take a demonolatry approach and started that way before Hecate told me she didn’t want worshipped. But I approach them.similarly and do partial possessions almost daily with a select few.
It’s been happening for several years and one thing I noticed right away was that I suddenly had a stronger affinity for the type of energy that they are over, of, etc… With Hecate, my abilities to sense and communicate with took off without being “taught”. In most cases, I just knew, such as opening up her gate and allowing the willing dead to pass on.
With Pele, there was a channeled curse she taught me where I teeter on the brink of full possession, a hair away from it. After that, I noticed I could connect to fire energies without having worked with it much at all.
I had similar effects from Hel, Belial, and Abaddon. I can’t say I learned physical skills from them, but doing this lightly with Marbas has helped some of my old joint issues from flaring up. I’m getting to that age and all that.
I’m really glad you commented on that. I think that’s one area where demonaltry has a strong advantage over practices like mine. Possession can bring incredible insights and information and abilities.
To be honest I have cold feet about exploring the phenomenon much more because of all the Hollywood horror stories surrounding possession.
There are many degrees of possession to I think.
When I do channelling or spirit work with Prince Orobas I’m willing to let him in because we’ve been together a very long time and I trust him more than any other entity.
Prince Orobas isn’t a god and made clear he didn’t desire worship either.
I can report from my limited possession experience with him that my divinations are almost crystal clear when we’re together that way. Hate to be cliche but it’s almost like a horse and rider, two beings together moving In the same space at the same time. When it’s over he simply departs and has expressed he doesn’t have any interest in malevolent possession.
That’s very telling that after full possession with Pele you could resonate with and connect with fire energy so closely.
With my stone works it was like I just intuitively knew which stones went together with the others and how to blend the colors without having any exposure to it. Im still surprised by it. Oh well my family really enjoys Christmas time because of all the necklaces and bracelets they get. That’s a plus I guess.
I had a similar experience the other night that I wasn’t going to write about, but did after reading your experiences and posting here. You may find it interesting.
That was a very honest and authentic recount of that time, you recall the salient points with clarity.
I especially liked that you trusted your intuition and knew it would be innapropriate to try to work with a triangle, tools, admonishments, threats, and what have you. Im starting to think sometimes that alot of that is for magicians who actually don’t know thier worth truly and are insecure about thier authority ( this isn’t always so however).
You clearly understood she was reaching out to you, and was not a threat and didn’t need to be treated as such.
Excellent use of intuition, many may not have jumped that hurdle so easily.
Excellent post my friend. I enjoy reading what you write @norse900
For the record, I didnt start using a triangle until I talked with @DarkestKnight about it. Still had reservations about it and being respectful. It’s just a tool, now, a useful one. I’ve trapped many targets in them🤘
As I’ve said before, I’ve added ceremonial tools as I’ve gone on my path. Good tools are good tools and a good magician tries them, understands them, and uses the proper amount of them for their personal tasks and practice. Whether adding them, leaving them in, or removing them, only actual practice seems to be able to dictate that.
I like how self assured you are about your practice and your path. I wish I had that same degree of confidence. Sometimes I feel like I’m walking through the woods at night and I trip and stumble Abit and sometimes lose my way. I try to stay focused on moving onward, the only direction that matters to me.
I’m just getting to the point where I’m satisfied with my life and the things in it and I’m starting to extend myself to others to assist them.
I feel like guys like you and DK are way ahead of me. It’s great to be able to bounce ideas of you guys here on Balg. I’ve learned a great deal from my experience here.
Wait…didn’t they hand you the theater’s map at the front if the ride? I’d walk all the way back and ask for one, if I were you, my friend.
Mine was a blinded and I’m stumbling just like you
If there was one thing I would add that has helped me out a lot, it WAS that attitude of servitude, in a sense. I look to those spirits I work with and trust and ask them to help men do what’s best for my path.
It’s a partnership at that point.
I question. I complain. I don’t understand half the time, but I listen when my gut says it’s the right move. Even if I don’t want to do it. And at least a third of the time (or all of it right now), I don’t want to do it. But I can feel it’s right. So, I do it.
Maybe it will let me down someday and would if I don’t continue to question it, for that’s prime time for learning a lesson (again). But it hasn’t yet.
Further along…can’t make an accurate gauge of anything like that with two different maps, my friend…
Besides, nobody reads this far without enjoying it and learning a thing or two along the way…
Hi-
I had a weird dream last night, maybe because I was reading everything here so intently, I also was trying to read the Lesser Keys of Solomon. I am curious and interested in Prince Orobas. The thing is, in this dream there was a man dressed like an apostle in biblical times, he looked like the version of Jesus, they sell us- everything was gray scale except his shawl that could have been blue-
Someone began singing a special song for him, I wanted to participate so badly I joined in suddenly knowing the words- it was sung as a hymnal- as we were singing he was lighting 4 cigars to blow them backwards as we do in our religion. It’s an offering The thing is he definitely isn’t one of my guides- I wonder what that dream was about. Also, in this dream he was asking for my secret name; which I don’t give out-
Any thoughts? Or is this too vague? I’m curious, it feels like someone asking to be appropriated but I don’t know who; unless it is Prince Orobas he’s the only one I focused on and I was saying his chant from the Lesser Keys before bed- Any thoughts or advice?
@BelladonnaWengue If you were chanting his enns and or imagining his seal before bed I find it very likely you met Prince Orobas.
He frequently dresses in middle eastern or north African dress and customs.
He was asking for your name, interesting. If he wanted to know that he would just know it. It’s very very difficult to keep anything secret from him.
I also find the use of Tobacco very telling he enjoys working with it very much. It is precious to him.
My advice is go with it. Perhaps next time place his seal under your bed and a glass of water by the headboard. It will make his manifestation easier into your dreams.
Hi, thank you for your reply- the thing is regarding my name, I’m a palera. So we have a secret name that gives us license to work with spirits. We usually either “salute” and say our name. Or we draw it as a sigil/firma. It makes me wonder if he was waiting for me to properly address him, because respectfully that is how it’s done, when we call or address spirits.
The thing that has me stumped is that I’m taught not to cross contaminate. Palo is Palo, Obeah is Obeah etc… I view myself as a natural necromancer, naturally working with spirits. But in reading what I’m reading using sigils etc- I wonder why I couldn’t put my firma down, put his sigil down and call him- but that would be cross contamination.
I will do as you advise and see what happens. Thank you for your prompt reply💚
Just finished evoking king paimon to ask him if he’ll help with clairaudience and was met with a yes. Very excited and nervous! Hoping this by the end of this year or by the February, it ends with me clairaudient enough to hear him and being able to evoke other spirits so I can divine with them and have full blown conversations!! I’ll update. Want to once more say thanks mike for sharing this and also thank you to Prince orobas for sharing this with you!
Noticed something strange. Before I evoke I won’t be hungry, but during evocation I’ll be STARVING. As if I haven’t eaten alll day. Then almost immediately after I’m done the evocation, I’m not hungry anymore. Kind of bizarre. I wonder what that means.
Mmm @Jetsetrose I’d chalk it up to phantom hunger, especially if it leaves when the evocation is over. I frequently find myself hungry after evocation and spirit work.
Okayyy so just finished up a session and I am still working on being able to hear him speak his name to me(paimon paimon painon) and for the life of me cannot hear it, BUT I during my evocation and looked at his sigil and saw the letter m that I have drawn on it in the outer circle and asked king paimon “what number the letter M in the alphabet?” I heard 13. I counted and just now checked, and it seems that answer was right. I find it strange that I still can’t hear him speak his name but heard him say 13. And I know it wasn’t myself that said 13 cause how the hell would I have been able to guess that? Strange session today but good strange cause last week was unbelievably dull as nothing happened really. Excited for tomorrow though!
