Before you begin:

• Know what you want. What you really want. And don’t think of “how” you’ll get it.

• Write the desire in present tense on a card. It is now your goal card.

• Carry this card with you and read it often. This is putting the desire into your subconscious mind.

• Check if your goal is really what you want. Can you imagine bigger? Are you letting fear stop you? Are you answering your soul’s calling with this? 

Night:

• How you fall asleep determines what shows up in your life. Everytime. Without fail. So we start our day how we fell asleep the night before, actually. Ask your self one question before you sleep: “If my wishes were fulfilled, how would I feel?” Fall asleep to that question satisfied.

• Record an MP3 or voice note of your OWN voice, reciting positive affirmations. Get examples online but personalize them. Your subconscious mind trusts your own voice. Use it. 

• Never ever let yourself fall asleep feeling stress or failure. Don’t invite it in. 

Morning:

• When your eyes open, set your intention for the day. 

• Did you have any dreams last night? Write them down.

• Write 5 things you’re grateful for. Increase to 10 after a while and begin to include wishes that are yet to manifest e.g. “I’m grateful I now weigh __” 

Day:

• Read

Think And Grow Rich

by Napoleon Hill. (PDF’s online) Read slowly and reflectively. 

• Read Feeling Is The Secret by Neville Goddard (PDF’s online) 

• The Secret

 book/DVD is great for beginners but you’re going to have to dig deeper to pull this off. 

•

Do what makes you smile. Read, play your music, call a friend, go for walks. Do whatever you can to lighten your mood. 

•

Write about your desire as if it’s already happened. 

•

Visualize your life ASSUMING the desire has already happened. How do you feel? What are you wearing? Where are you? Was manifesting easy and fun?

Remember:

• Bruce Lee, Jim Carrey, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Oprah Winfrey, Big Sean, Conor McGregor

and countless others have used this formula. It works, and it will work for you.

I have read it and in several different translations. Firstly, it is a very influential text historically for witches, cunning folk and magicians. Many used portions of it piecemeal rather than attempting the practice entire. An early example of its translation into English dates to 1572. Many hand copied manuscripts and parts of the key can be found in personal grimoires kept by folk magic practitioners like the Elizabethan grimoire the book of Oberon for example. Affordable printings in Latin were available to crafters and in the late 19th century Mathers released an English translation for the Golden Dawn crowd and it too was very influential. A good portion of Gerald Gardner’s novel about witchcraft history is based upon the Key of Solomon. Many witches and historians state that fraternal lodge and witchcraft traditions shared and that is why some ceremonial material along with folk magic can be found in traditions of witchcraft.

Can you all recommend a good edition of this that is available now?

So one of the issues is that rather than being an individual grimoire,  The Keys of Solomon are a family of manuscripts that have been complied into a number of different grimoires throughout history which compose at standalone magickal system. This makes it fairly difficult to recommend a definitive version however the Mathers edition of The Lesser Key of Solomon is undoubtedly the least accurate and most incomplete version - in particular because it only includes only one of the five books of the Lesser Key. For a thorough understanding of The Keys, a cross-grimoire approach needs to be taken and which book I’d recommend hinges on your particular area of interest.

If your interest lies solely in the Ars Goetia (as tends to be the case), I would recommend the Peterson edition of The Lesser Key of Solomon. This edition is very accurate, contains all five books, and is extremely workable for practical magicians. This is the edition I typically use when doing Solomonic evocation.

If you are interested in the historical context in addition to the magickal application of the Lesser Key, I would recommend the Skinner/Rankine edition of The Goetia of Dr. Rudd. This edition is somewhat unique in that it is a translation of a series of manuscripts owned and used by a 16th century working magician.

Introduction

(This article is long and subject to edits, changes and corrections as I see them. As a warning, information may disappear or appear as I try to make clarifications in the future. This article is not complete by a long shot.)

  In the Chaos Magick ladder which I briefly described in a previous article we have Servitors as the next evolution of our high magick. Just to remind you we go from Sigils -> Servitors -> Egregores -> God forms. Servitors are much more difficult to put into application than sigils. They require more time and energy as well. The good news (for some) is that Servitors can still be created in private. Egregores and Godforms are almost impossible to create without some sort of extra participation or fellowship with other people (however I have some clever methods to use which will be described when I get to those subjects.) Regardless, before I jump into how to create a servitor, I need to clearly define WHAT a servitor IS.

What is a Servitor?

As servitor is a thought form of your own creation. One of the most popular occurrences (back in the day) was the creation of imaginary friends by children. The power and purpose of your servitor will be entirely dependent on you and your desire to develop it. For young children, to have a non judgmental companion to walk beside them as they learn to socially cope with other people is a common mission for some servitors. Another way to think of Servitors is as “Familiars.” Now this comes with a bit of a warning, without proper attention your servitor may gain independence and a life of its own (Thus evolving into an Egregore.) I am all about responsibility and making your magick do exactly what it was intended to do, so I will give you some tips on how to keep a leash on your familiar.

Why would I want a Servitor?

Like I said in a previous article, sigils are typically where the buck stops for most Chaotes. They are powerful, work as intended and are very accurate. You could technically stop right there and have everything you will ever need for working with magick. However, magick is more of a walk for some and an exploration of endless possibilities for others. Servitor creation is the next step into some deep waters and a step out into the wild frontier of Magick. This is where the pedal hits the metal; this is where the wild adventure begins. For many adult occultists, this is also a return to childhood which can be a very scary place for some.

That being said; familiars and their purpose are left to your imagination. A companion (friend), a bodyguard, and yes even lovers are all applications for Servitor work. However let me come with a warning, the more you feed a servitor the stronger and more independent it can become. As such I advise highly against creating servitors for sexual gratification. You may end up giving birth to a hag or a succubus (a result of uncontrolled mutation), which in the end will make your life miserable. It would be better to create a wing(wo)man to help bolster your confidence to gain a physical mate. My point ultimately is, just like sigils, there is no limit on what a servitor can do, look like or become. The only limit is your imagination. If a sigils is a magickal computer program, Servitors are magickal robots, just shy of becoming Magickal AI.

Servitors are astral constructs.  Servitors can cause physical change.

Practical use for servitors include:

 An assistant in solo magickal work.

A protector for your house.

An assistant for keeping your workspace clean.

To name just a few.

Okay I get it! How do I MAKE one?

First rule: Temper your enthusiasm with caution. Respect the ritual you are about to perform.

Second Rule: We do not create accidents; make sure you truly want to create a servitor. These are not toys, they are very real beings created from your energies, they are in short, your children. Be a responsible parent.

Third Rule: Always, always, always, set up rules and restrictions to keep your servitors exactly that. Without rules, a servitor has the potential to become an Egregore and no longer under your control.

Optional but highly recommended: When I create servitors I get into the habit of breaking down ones I no longer use and incorporate them into the newer, upgraded models. I had a bad experience with leaving “junk servitors” unattended only to have them haunting my dreams and bumping into me in the middle of the night. If you are down with a servitor, release the energy and let it be free. This act prevents the buildup of malice and negative energies from neglected thought forms. Keep your workspace clean, in the astral and in the physical.

Now that we have that established let me begin.

As always with Chaos Magick, there is no right or wrong way to do this. What I offer you is what has worked for me. Tweak it for your purposes. (For me) It always helps to have a template to start with, but YOUR magickal walk is exactly that, yours not mine; you are the final Judge on what you are willing and able to commit to such a practice.

Step 1: State the purpose of your Servitor

 Create a sigil or series of sigils which will define the purpose of your servitor. “Protect my home,” “Keep my house clean,” so on and so forth. Make as many sigils as you need. This is the easy part, feel free to find my article on sigil making in this blog.

Step 2: Create a body for your Servitor

You have two options here.

Option A:

You can bind them to a fetish like is a doll, figurine or even a drawing of your own design. I am a naturally arts and crafts kind of person so this is my preferred method.

Option B:

However if for whatever reason I don’t not have the time or money to create a physical representation of my servitor, I use meditation and create the servitor in my mind and in astral space.

Regardless, the process requires the same amount of energy, effort and IMAGINATION. You must visualize the servitor. How tall is it? Does it have limbs? Can it speak? It can take hours to create a body for your  servitor, but you need to define as many of its functions and characteristics as possible. Its body needs to be a vivid as possible. Some of my servitors have looked like Lovecraftian horrors, while one of my longtime companions is a very cute four foot tall blonde elf girl who speaks in wind chimes.

Step 3: Bind your sigils in the body of the servitor, and put in its safety protocols.

Binding your sigils can be as simple as drawing them inside your picture, carving them into your doll, or imagining the sigils being put in place of where its “heart” or “battery” may be. The point is to make sure your sigils are part of your servitor. Once this occurs, and you are convinced the two have become one, a safety should be put into place. As I said before, without a leash or restrain, your servitor has cart-blanche to run amok and out of your control. You have again, to options here: A command word or a counter sigil. The command word can be: “Stop!” “Sit!” “Go away!” It is best to keep it simple; although I know a few people who used poetry for particularly devious machines to make sure not everyone can shut them down. That is the key to command words however, anyone can use them. A servitor must be compelled once a person speaks a word or command phrase to abide by its programming.

Safety Method A: Command Words

Creating a command word is as simple as touching your servitor (if you used a fetish, this is easier) and speaking plainly to them “When I say <x> you will do <y>” (X and Y are your phrase and its action.) Repeat this as many times as you need to remember or until you feel you servitor is ready to comply. You can put as many command words on your servitor as you want, just be careful not to use the same word to do multiple things, or that they words are counterproductive to its mission. You could confuse the crap out of it.

Safety Method B: Counter Sigils

The second method, counter sigils, are kind of a fire and forget method. It lets a servitor know where it  is or isn’t allowed to be. This requires you to name your servitor and upon naming it, creating a sigil of its name. You must decide if this sigil is a ward or a summoning upon its creation. You do not need to commit much thought to this nor does it change the method of how the sigil is created, the intent is good enough. “This sigil means you are welcome to work in this place,” or “This sigil prevents you from going into this place,” Is good enough of a declaration for this method to work. I have seen people bind servitors in boxes with this method and let them out when needed, while others have put the symbols on doors and the like to let servitors know where they should go.

Step 4: BRING YOUR CREATION TO LIFE!!!!!

The ritual can be as elaborate or mundane as you want. However I will tell you, the more elaborate the more powerful your servitor will be in the long run. I have used a simple hand flick gesture (like turning on a light) to activate some, they only lasted a few days before the broke down. My longtime companion servitor had entire weeks of music and food dedicated to her and if she didn’t have any safety protocols in place, probably would have become an Egregore by now. Still, perform a ritual that lets the servitor know it is born. Throw it a birthday party, show it around the house, get silly, get childish. There is no right or wrong way to invite this new entity into your home, just know, the more gnosis you feed it, the better.

Step 4:

Regular maintenance of your servitor is a must. Your servitor must be in your mind from time to time. If you forget about it, it loses energy and dies. While, just thinking about it is okay, offerings or rewards are much more potent. For my lesser servitors I give them a drop of life force when they have done well. For my companion, I have treated her to donuts and milk. The key is to understand the relationship between you and your servitor. Unless you set them free, they cannot live without you. If you forget them, they will die. Woe to the chaote who creates a servitor with no restrictions and then neglects them, you may create a vengeful spirit to infest your house. So reward you servitor when they have done their duties and let them know you still care about them.

Dismantling your Servitors:

I include this part because all good occultists know the value of banishment. Some servitors outlive their usefulness and thus need to be released back into the cosmos. This is not a cruel thing to do, as a matter of fact; actively releasing your unused servitors is very humane. It is cruel to leave a bound servitor unattended to die an agonizing death of forgetfulness and neglect.

Dismantling is simple. Take the abject or thought of you servitor and tell it “You are free” or “I set you free” Imagine all of the bindings and words leaving and falling apart into harmless light. If you have a fetish, set it ablaze or destroy it in some gentle way. Make sure that the object can no longer physically house the servitor. IT is a very good practice to tell it, that it has performed well and it is time for it to move on. If the servitor doesn’t seem to want to leave then you may have to perform this a few time. My companion didn’t want to leave me when I tried to banish her the first three times, she was so fiercely loyal that I gave her a second birthday and still keep her to this day.

That is servitor making in a nutshell.

I am sure many of you have questions or will want me to elaborate. So feel free to ask questions if you need help. This is a basic outline, I am vague for a reason to encourage you to go out there and find what works for you. Just be safe and Chaos Magick responsibly.

The late Occultist Oswald Wirth was known mostly for his renowned work revolving around Tarotology. In 1989 he created, under the guidance of de Guaita, a cartomantic Tarot consisting only of the twenty-two Major Arcana. Known as the Arcanes du Tarot kabbalistique, it followed the designs of the Tarot de Marseille closely but introduced several alterations, incorporating extant occult symbolism into the cards. The Wirth/de Guaita deck is significant in the history of the occult tarot for being the first in a long line of occult, cartomantic, and initiatory decks. He had also created an entire list, consisting of the correlations between the twenty two cards of the Major Arcana and Astrology.

This post contains useful information about astrology. It can be used for both beginners and more advanced people who wants to look over the basics. This is Astrology 101. It’ll help you get started out with astrology, and will provide you with basic knowledge, tips, pictures, help, and useful links.

If you’re wondering about anything, feel free to ask me, and I’ll answer!

Tip! If you’re wondering about anything, ask an astroblog. I’ll link my favourites down below. Don’t ask them to read your whole birthchart or to explain everything (unless they say they can) but ask them specific questions. And remember to shower them in the love and gratitude they deserve.

Why should you look into astrology?

Astrology can help you through anything in life. It can answer all your questions. It can help guide you. Exactly at the time you were born, all the planets and stars where lined up. And they all sent universal energy to you. Astrology and your birthchart is the blueprints you were born with. Your chart is the pavement, and the ground you stand on. The machine you were built into. It is the potential and the possibilities you have. What you chose to do with it is up to you. Which flowers you plant in the ground is your choice. How you’ll upgrade your machine is up to you.

How to start:

If you’re interested in astrology. First, you need to find out your chart. And for that, you need your birth date, place, and time. If you don’t have the time, you won’t have the possibility to look as deep into it as you might want to, but it’s better than nothing!

Here are some places you can calculate your birth chart. The first one is the most accurate.

The recommended one.

This is another one that works.

What does my chart mean?

Now that you have your chart. Make sure you have your chart drawing, a list of which Signs and degrees your Planets are in, a list of which Houses your Planets and Signs are, and a list of your aspects.

This is a link to where you can put in your birth info, and then click on the symbols in it for an explaination! It is very newbeginner-friendly!

What to do next:

If you’ve done all this now, I recommend looking into your minor aspects too.

Find out if there’s anything unusual about your chart. Any stelliums or interceptions. Stelliums are when there are 3-4 or more Planets in a House or Sign. Interceptions are when a Sign is enclosed within a house. When it jumps over that Sign at the list of Signs in the Houses.

Now that you know the basics, you can go ahead and continue to explore the astro-world! Find out more about your chart, look at other peoples’ charts, try synastry, vedic, vertex, draconic, persona charts, etc. Now that you have a solid footing, the rest is a lot easier. Let the inner curiousity for knowledge lead you into new areas of deeper and more interesting astrology!

How many times have you said you will learn or do something later when you had more time? That time is now.

CLEAN EVERYTHING. Make your space *gorgeous*.

Been waiting to start a journal? Start it now.

If you have spotify, explore your discover weekly playlist and look for new musics.

Dance to the musics.

Start a MEDITATION practice.

Read a novel.

Learn an art. 

Learn a language. 

Learn to cook something new. 

Yoga at home. Keep your body open and happy.

You a gamer? Have at it! Zero guilt.

Videochat old friends with whom you’ve been meaning to catch up.

Binge seasons of shows.

Create something! Even if it’s just building a couch fort. 

Remember that limiting contact with other humans and staying at home during this time is legitimately helpful. Even though it is a hassle and presents its own challenges, time alone in this way is actually an opportunity.

If all goes well, we will emerge from this pandemic with new skills, new wellness habits, and a renewed appreciation for what was previously our typical daily lives. For now, stay home and stay healthy.

I posted an answer to you a couple of days ago.  You could also go to my archive and look for the chemical wedding tag.  There are lots of different ways to depict a CW.  Sometimes the emphasis is on the Philosophical Child–the offspring of the CW between Sun/Red King and Moon/White Queen, as here. (Mylius, Philosophia reformata; colored version by Adam McLean)

Anonymous said:                                                                           

 Hello! Sorry for my ignorance, but what is a chemical wedding/what are the hallmarks of one?

*********************************************************

In the Dictionary of Alchemical Imagery, Lyndy Abraham defines chemical wedding as–

one of the central images of the opus alchymicum and a crucial operation in the creation of the philosopher’s stone.  The alchemists were ultimately concerned with the union of substances, the reconciliation of opposites. Through the ‘marriage’ of opposites the goal of the opus, the production of gold and its metaphysical equivalent was obtained. (p. 35)

So that’s the role and importance of the chemical wedding.  Pretty vague, right? But over the centuries the most common imagery has been a man and woman–often King Sol/Sulphur and Queen Luna/Mercury–1. standing together, 2. conjoined, or 3. combined into a hermaphroditic figure. 

Examples:

Standing together (Splendor solis)

Conjoined (Rosarium philosophorum):

The rebis/androgyne/hermaphrodite (Buch der heiligen Dreifaltigkeit):

The central process of alchemy is dissolution and coagulation–you dissolve (solve) and then coagulate (coagula) your raw material.  So it’s pretty common to have your alchemical couple be dissolved somehow–taking a bath, for example–and then coagulated, either by fire or piercing weapons.

A very straightforward chemical wedding is presented in Mozart’s opera, The Magic Flute, based on Masonic alchemy.  The male and female protagonists,  Tamino and Pamina, go through trials by fire and water together, and are transformed into full members of the Brotherhood.  A chemical wedding results in a transformation of the couple.  

In A Song of Ice and Fire, the only final, permanent chemical wedding so far is that between Jaime and Brienne, which I wrote about here.

Plants and foods are important in Egyptian mythology below is a list of some of the most important:

Acacia: In some mythologies Horus was said to have sprung forth from the Acacia tree while in other myths he took shelter under it as a child. The Acacia is a symbol of immortality and became important to Freemasons. Acacia plants tend to contain high amounts of the potent psychedelic DMT (Dimethyltryptamine) and this may have been utilised in religious ceremonies involving the plant. The Egyptian hero Bitiu was said to have placed his heart in the flower of the Acacia tree afrer vowing to never allow a mortal to claim it.

Bread: Considered sacred to Osiris in rituals that might have later influenced the Christian Eucharist.

Cannabis: In ancient Egypt cannabis was cultivated for medicine, recreation, textiles and religious ceremonies where it would be smoked, burned as incense or used in anointing oils. Cannabis (pictured in the centre of the second row) was deified in the form of the Goddess Sheshat, likely a Goddess was chosen since only the female plant bares psychoactive buds, Sheshat may also be the origin of the Arabian word “Shesha” (a device used for smoking). Sheshat was a Goddess of meassurement associated with the weighing scales of Ma’at and symbolised by a Goddess with a cannabis leaf on her head (depicted in the central row on the left), the Egyptians made rope from the cannabis or hemp plant and utilised this rope by binding it around three sticks to mark out an area of certain length so that they could meassure farmland or building spaces.

Cyprus Tree: The fertility God Min was worshiped under the cyprus trees which were sacred to him.

Date Palm: The Goddess Hathor was sometimes regarded as “Mistress of the date palm” since date palms were sacred to her.

Day Bark and Night Bark: In the Egyptian book of the dead the twin Goddesses of life and death, Isis and Nephthys are regarded as the “day bark” (Isis) and “Night Bark” (Nephthys), the book states that to ascend one would seek help from the day bark and to descend from the night bark, this may be a reference to the double helix shaped Caapi vine of South America which contains high amounts of psychedelic DMT (pictured second row on the right) since it has bark and can be split into an ascending and descending coil, this vine has been used by tribal peoples in South America for thousands of years in the preperation of the strongest psychedelic brew known to man, ayahuasca, it is possible that the Egyptians used this brew that causes a long lasting dream state and vivid hallucinations since the mummified remains of Pharaoh’s have been found mummified with cocaine on or within them, this indicates strongly that the ancient Egyptians were in contact with ancient South American tribal peoples since cocaine originates in this area of the world, they may have recieved these items from trade with the Phoenician’s or other maritime civilisations if not from their own exploration. It is also possible that the bark that ascends and descends is an ancient Egyptian reference to Kabbalistic magic involving the tree of life and tree of death respectively.

Honey: In ancient Egypt, honey symbolised resurrection and immortality since it never decays. The tears of the sun God Ra were said to have formed into bee’s that make honey. The “tears of Ra” are also a reference to the weeping, fertility fish-God, Rem.

Ished Tree: The Ished tree was considered life-giving and were also called “flowers of life”. These trees were used alongside lotuses in funeral rites. The Ished was probably the same as the Persea tree and was said to be protected by Mau - the sun God Ra in the form of a cat who slept in this trees shade. As with all trees mentioned in mythology this may indicate a Kabbalistic mystery as the Sun is a central point on the tree of life.

Kesbet and Moringa Trees: Were both sacred to the crocodile-headed war God Sobek.

Lettuce: The lettuce was considered a fertility symbol related to the God Min this is because its milky juices were considered equivalent to semen. In one myth Horus tricks his uncle Seth into eating lettuce soaked in his semen after the two engaged in a rather vulgar competition, this may relate to the earlier Sumerian stories of Enki.

Milk: Milk was considered a connection between mortals and the divine and drinking milk from the breast of a Goddess was seen to show that a human was an Earthly messanger of the Gods.

Olive: The olive was considered sacred to Horus in Egyptian mythology.

Persea Tree: The names of divine mortals would be inscribed on the Persea tree allowing them immortality. Persea trees were said to form from the drops of blood spilled from the death of the hero Bitiu when he took the form of the Apis bull in the pharoah’s court, the Apis bull is heavily connected to honey bee’s who still bare their Latin name “Apis Mellifera”. This is almost certainly a mythology relating to Kabbalistic and Alchemical practices.

Sacred Egyptian Water Lily: The purple or blue water lily of the Nile (pictured bottom right) was sacred to the blue lotus God Nefertem who was depicted with the flower growing from his head and his lion-head red brother Maahes. The lotus was associated with the sun God Ra since like the sun it rose and bloomed in the morning and then curled back up slipping into the murky waters at night just as the sun was seen to as it past below the horizon, because of this symbology the lotus became a symbol of death and resurrection. The sacred Egyptian water lily was used in ointments and perfumes and is known to have a narcotic sedadtive effect.

Sycamore: The Sycamore tree was sacred to a variety of Egyptian Gods and Goddesses most notably Isis. The Goddess Mut was said to pour out water on the souls of the deceased through a sycamore and the sun God Ra was said to rise from between two turquoise sycamore trees each day. The sycamore tree was often depicted with a Goddess (usually Isis) in its centre (as depicted on the top row left and right) or with breasts nourishing divine mortals with heavenly milk (as depicted top row and central). The sycamore was likely related to Kabbalistic tree of life mysteries.

Tamerisk Bush: The jackal-headed God Wepwawet was said to have emerged from the tamerisk bush.

Willow Tree: The willow tree was said to be the tomb of Osiris and was used as a focus point in fertility rituals and rituals themed around death and resurrection.
