Happy New Year

 Happy New Year, folks, I am back!


You are all wondering, what was with the long hiatus? Truth be told, my practice was severely lacking, and that was even before I stopped posting. I didn't practice for the betterment, instead, I just practiced so I can post here about it. This took several years, and I was even hurt because of it. I remember one such attempt where I tried to evoke an entity into a physical manifestation. The whole result was pretty fuzzy, an arm here or there, fading back and forth. And my first response? Sit down at the computer and start writing, completely disregarding that an entity is currently hovering around, tapping on my shoulder. So, there, I did what a stupid person would do, banishing with a clap. And a few days later? I cut myself with a hatchet while making splinters for a campfire...


As for my practice, a lot of changes happened. First of all, I abandoned the use of all ritualistic tools (no wand, no dagger, no amulets, talismans, etc). And also, no tarot. The last one is actually easy to explain. I got kids now and my tarot deck got damaged (and then lost), instead I started using geomancy, which, quite frankly, is a much better alternative. First of all, I don't need any physical deck and the figures can be generated with many different approaches. Anything from drawing lines in a notebook up to throwing chicken bones. I also found out that geomantic figures can be combined with tarot spreads and even something as generic as the Celtic cross spread can give a lot of useful insights using geomancy.


With that being said, I do not intend to fully abandon the tools, after all, there is nothing that can really replace the black mirror, but I really need some time to charge my old mirror properly.


What else? There is a lot of stuff I can share now considering the years that I shared nothing. It's also bad luck that I have lost contact with many great people, namely because my Facebook account was suspended (Facebook REALLY doesn't like when you don't use your real name, go figure...). I will try to get some of those contacts back, but frankly, many of the New Age people I spoke with are just not worth the effort.


Anyway, with that being said. Happy New Year, and look forward to more. And if you want, just reach out to me via this blog or on Studio Arcanis.

Simple Sumerian Banishing Ritual

In this simple ritual we will call two entities that were given to Marduk. Nariluggaldimmerankia, guardian of Igigi and Annunaki, enemy of all maskim and rabishu, and we will also call Asaruludu, ruler of the flame sword, giver of the perfect defense. I am a bit tired now to give any more details, so here we go: 1) Face north and take a couple of deep breaths 2) Center and ground yourself (as described in How to begin with practical Magick article) 3) Call the word of Nariluggaldimmerankia, the word is BANRABISHU. Call this word to each direction, when you are done, turn back to north. This should clean the space of all negative energy, no matter if it consisted of negative emotions like anger, fear, frustration, negative entities like demons, larvae or some curse. 4) Call the word of Asaruludu. Proceed the same way as in step 3, call his word in each direction. His word is BANMASKIM. 5) Enjoy the effects. This ritual is very simple, words of power can be easily memorized and...

Art of Shinobi: Simple Protection Ritual

Image
Introduction I made my mind to slow down during holidays and return to my old hobby from the childhood: ninjas. As an occultist I have found few jewels. These jewels certainly weren't created by ninjas, but they were extensively used by them, given by the time, place and tradition. Kuji Kiri Kyu - nine Ji - syllable(s) Kiri - cut(s) Kuji Kiri is a simple ritual of doing nine cuts in the air with your hand, each of them being associated with one syllables. Sorted syllables and meanings associated in Ninjutsu are: RIN - power PYO (or HYO or KYO) - energy channeling TOH - harmony (with the universe) SHAH - healing of self and others KAI - intuition, sense of danger JIN - telepathy, reading thoughts of others (can also be used for suggestion) RETSU - control of space and time ZAI - control of heaven and earth (control of elements) ZEN - enlightenment To say more of the syllables we would have to mention its chinese origin and I am not really a histo...
