Stars-Craft

I love this collection of sigils, but it is annoying difficult to read and impossible to search, so I typed it up as best I could. This was mostly for personal reference and I’m not terribly familiar with demons so there’s probably a few mistakes, but if anyone wants it, knock yourself out. As far as I know, the source on this is totally forgotten, but if someone knows it, please feel free to add it on!

(No particular order)

•Stolas

Stolas is great for beginners mainly because he is genuinely kind and helpful. He enjoys partaking in in-depth intellectual conversations. Another thing about Stolas is he has knowledge of all stars and planets. Along with this he teaches the properties of stones and the uses of herbs.

•Vassago

Vassago is probably going to be one of friendliest if not the friendliest demons you will come across. Like many other demons he has the ability to look into the past, present and the future. However he is the most well known for this ability, I think that he may be able to actually see/understand the past, present and future in more detail, or just willing to tell you about it more so than other demons. Along with this he has the breathtaking ability of finding anything that has been lost.

•Ipos

I personally haven’t invoked Ipos as of yet. However, Ipos can make people more….whole? He basically can help shy people become more confident, average joes (intellect-wise) seem incredibly intellectual, help you become more charismatic and bold, along with helping you keep/ make friends. Another noteworthy thing about Ipos is that he is believed to be the Egyptian God Anubis.

•Paimon

Paimon is very friendly and quite the “colorful” character to say the least. Paimon gives good familiars and bestows honor. He can reveal anything about Earth to you along with share the secrets of one’s mind. Paimon is good for beginners because he has a loud voice and a very strong presence. This is good for beginners mainly because, more than likely, beginners are not in tune with their psyche enough to see, hear, or feel the demon. So starting with someone like Paimon could make you more aware of how a demon’s presence feels like for the future.

•Bune

Bune is a very friendly demon. She can help you acquire wealth, wisdom, and a degree of sophistication. She has the ability to make even hobo joe a high-society figure through bestowing wealth and wisdom. Also a fun history note: she is believed to have helped ancient Egyptians build their first society through helping them acquire wealth and wisdom. This may be why she regularly appears as a Pharaoh she kind of resembles a Hollywood style Cleopatra.

A more in-depth post on each of these demons will come soon :-)

A brief explanation on Dragon Magick. There are different beliefs and paths, this is just basic information.

What is Dragon Magick?

It is calling upon dragons to aid you and work with you on your journey. Dragons can be called upon to give more power to your spells, but more often they grant us knowledge. Dragon Magick is a rather solitary path. While one can work in a clan, Dragon Magick dives deep into ones subconscious. You must face fears and memories long buried. As such, Dragon Magick calls for a lot of self-discipline, inner strength, courage, and the ability to seek knowledge on your own. As well as, knowing when it is appropriate to ask others for help. Dragon Magick is not a religion, so many couple it with Wicca, Druid, Egyptian, and other paths. It is rather spiritual, but it does not have Gods, or holidays [normally] so many choose to incorporate Paganism in it. It is a form of high magic, so it can be dangerous. Dragon’s are cautious around humans by nature, if they sense fear, or are mistreated in any way, they will lash out at the person who summoned them.

What are Dragons?

Some believe dragons were once beings who dwelled in the physical, but humans began to slay them, and now they dwell in the astral. Occasionally, a dragon will return to the physical realm to visit, but they will be astral beings, so most will not see them. There are many types of dragons, European and Ling are most widely known, but there are also Lindworms, Wyvern, Marsupial, Amphiptere, Icedrake or Frost, Faerie, Dwarf, Hydra and many others. They come in many shapes, sizes, and colour. Some have wings or no wings, some four legs, two legs, or no legs, some breath fire, others frost, and some spit venom.

How Old is Dragon Magick?

The belief in dragons is ancient, and many traditions in Dragon Magick date back thousands of years. However, Dragon Magick it is believed, is a concept that is fairly new, cooked up by D.J. Conway. If this is true or not, it is not important. Dragon’s are ancient, as well as their strength and wisdom, and this path is very personal, full of inward gazes to build yourself up as a practitioner.

How do we Communicate with Dragons?

There are different methods, but the two most common, and best ways, are through meditation and astral projection. With meditation, dragons come to us, and we can see them clearer. Astral projection, we are traveling to their lair, to speak with them. All dragons react differently, so use your judgement when approaching them. In meditation, dragons come to us, but we are approaching them in the astral. If they walk away, do not chase after them, unless they want you to follow, they will attack you.

Do I get a Dragon of my own?

Sometimes. Normally, dragon practitioners have two dragons; a guardian and a guide. The guardian dragon normally comes to us while we meditate, it’s a young dragon, and typically the size of a puppy or cat. They are rather energetic, and they protect the home from unwanted beings. Not all have them however, and sometimes dragons just visit ones home. Don’t get discouraged if you don’t have one, and don’t assume a traveling dragon is yours, your guardian dragon will tell you. The Guide is an older dragon who will be your teacher on your path. They normally stay in the astral. Sometimes you may have more than one, but don’t get discouraged if you don’t have one the first time you meet a dragon. It takes years.

How Long Does it take to become a Dragon Master?

There is no ‘Dragon Master’ and you can’t really ‘Master’ Dragon Magick. You always strive for knowledge, and are always working to improve yourself. in most paths there are four [or five including teachers] levels. To advance from beginner can take years, decades sometimes. Certain aspects of Dragon Magick can hold people back, even scare them away. To study Dragon Magick, you must conquer your fears.

What are Some Milestones, or Tests, you Must complete?

After dedication, there is the Riding the Dragon ceremony which scares most people off. It’s not as simple as it sounds, normally a Chaos dragon, but it can also be your Guide if you’ve met them at this point, will take you on a spiritual journey to face all the things you wish not to. An example, if you were abused as a child, the dragon will make you relive it. You must come to terms with it, accept it, and move on. If you have yet to do so, and there is some lingering hurt from it, it will be exposed and magnified. Similar, if you have a fear of drowning, you will be plunged into water and forced to ‘sink or swim’ overcome your fear or be lost to it. it’s an intense ritual, taking a long time to complete depending on how much you have buried, or how long you put it off. It needs to be done though. Afterwards, there will be tests, but they are revealed by your Guide. As with the Riding the Dragon Ritual, you either pass, fail and retake it, or run away forever.

Remember, Dragon Magick is not for everyone, it is not a way to become an all powerful magic user, it is a spiritual journey that will bring great wisdom and power. You cannot lord over dragons, you cannot order them around. Working as equals is the only way to work with dragons. Other facts one should know ~Dragons take things literally, so choose your wording carefully. ~Dragons love riddles and symbols, and will communicate in them. ~It takes a long time to earn a dragons trust, but you can loose it in a heartbeat. Always be honest and truthful, not just with dragons.

potion seller: trenta macchiato plus five shots as usual, then?

Name:   Mittens (her choice, not mine) Species:   Venusian Bobcat Age:   455 (303 years on Earth) Pronouns:  She/Her

Personality: She is a spitfire. Mittens takes no prisoners. She can be ruthless, and straightforward if she knows she is in the right. Can’t get yourself together? She is going to push you to do better. Mittens wants what is best for those around her, and will be protective no matter what happens. But while she also has a gentle side, she is a loving companion. She looks scarier than she actually is. She is a pure in most senses but has the most warped sense of humor. She will joke about anything and can’t be told to stop unless she knows she is crossing some sort of boundaries. Mittens is really easy to calm down if she ever gets too riled up, be it jokingly or from aggression of some sort. She is completely loving, despite all of that, and will always revert to that state of mind. But to top everything off, she is one of the biggest drama queens I have ever met. She will go off on a tangent and will refuse to get back on point until of her point is made. Description: Mittens has a peculiar look. She does have soft fur that covers her, but instead of skin, she has a hard outer shell, from which the fur sprouts from. The hard shell, that makes up her skin is cracked, showing a glowing heat from beneath her surface. Though the heat is barely noticeable, more so a gentle reminder that it exists. The glowing is a pulsing swirl of bright golds and yellows, with reds and orange swirling within. Her fur is a mesh of browns and splotches of colors where dots are. Mittens’ eyes are that same swirling glowing color, giving her a warm look, almost approachable. From shoulder height, she is about 5’8, and  is over 7 feet 6 inches long, from nose to tail. Likes: Cuddling, warm temperatures, fires, candles, singing and SPN Dislikes: Ice, the dark, ice cream, lying, dull things that should be sharp Hobbies: Lounging around on a hot day, mewing at random things for the hell of it, going for long runs just to keep fit, reading out loud on a quiet day, watching her favorite shows with her companion, and playing at being over dramatic with her companion.

Magic: Fire manipulation, musical composition, and dream traveling Alignment: Grey Arts Level: Intermediate Companion Communication: She will quite literally meow in the physical, in that deep growly way. Telepathy, runes and oracle cards. Family: Mittens is really relaxed in all aspects, meaning she doesn’t care much about how big her family is or gets. She is a cuddle bug and will spend quality time with everyone if they are alright with it. She’ll also nap curled up next to most anyone of the family members. Needs: Mittens needs attention near daily. She is gentle to the family, and needs the kind treatment in return. Food isn’t much of a concern for her. She can fend for herself on that front. “If you don’t know something, why be afraid of it? Explore a little!”

I will send her companion her manifestations, offerings, and real name, as well as other information as soon as she has chosen.

As an apartment dweller, this is a game changer. My current apartment doesn’t have a laundry facility and the closest Laundromat about a 30 min bus ride which is just not practical. The mini-washer is a life saver

The panda mini washer hooks up to the sink, is incredibly lightweight (about 28 pounds, so light even I can lift it) and easy to use. 

It has a surprisingly large capacity. The basket from the first picture represents about one and a half loads. The jeans took up a whole load while the rest filled the bin only half way. 

Here’s the inside. The left is the washer the right is the spin dryer. Yes, it even drys.

Basically you shove your cloths into the washer, fill it up with water and let it go. I use my shower head to fill it up so it goes faster, the sink hook up took about five minutes to fill the whole tub, with the shower head is is down to a minute an a half. I do it in three wash cycles, a five minute rinse with baking soda, a five minute wash with soap and a three minute rinse with water. You have to drain and refill between each cycle so it’s a little more labor intensive than a traditional washer. 

That’s the spin dryer. It’s about half the capacity of the washer so one wash takes about two loads to dry. The spinner is much more effective than I was expecting. A three minute spin gets my cloths about 90% dry. I hang them up to air dry for that last 10%. 

The machine cost me about 150$. When you factor in two dollars for the bus, five for the machines (per week), the mini-washer pays for its self after only about six months worth of laundry. 

Can you IMAGINE how this is going to change the lives of college students and apartment-dwellers? Or anyone with a lower income who can’t afford a place with “luxury” appliances like dishwashers and laundry machines?

Chaos Water represents the primeval chaos that existed before us and will continue to exist eternally after our life has ended. It is sacred to the Great Snake, World-Encircler, Devourer of Souls, the Leviathan. (If you wish to know more about this entity and why I work with it, I wrote this post about it). It can be used for ritual purposes by witches who want to interact with inhuman, chaotic entities and all practitioners of black magick. The ingredients I used have specific meanings. The salt recalls the sea from which life first emerged; the soil represents the earth to which we will return in death. Clay is the material out of which humans were first created; the ashes recall the warning of God: “for you are dust and to dust you shall return”.

🌙  You will need 🌙

Soil 

Ashes

Salt

Clay powder

Black paint 

🔮  What to do 🔮 Take a glass bottle and fill it with boiled water. Add your ingredients and the black paint (until the water is dark enough that you can’t see through it) and shake it up. As you do this, pronounce the following words:

“Memento, homo, quia pulvis es et in pulverem reverteris.”

If you wish, mark the bottle with the Leviathan Cross.  Leave the bottle in complete darkness for at least one day before using it.

💎  Additional notes 💎 Ashes from a burnt incense stick will work just fine. Needless to say (but I’ll say it anyway) this water is not safe to ingest. If you don’t want to boil the water, you can microwave it for about one minute. It’s better to make this deep at night, under a waning moon. 

(for invisibility; works similiarly to a glamour when maintained)

Today I’d like to talk about enchanting: the practice of charging objects with a magickal purpose. This can be done in many different ways; it is not required to follow complicated rituals and use specific ingredients to successfully enchant an object, but rituals are a great way to focus one’s will during the process.

This is the way I do it. 🌙

Start with meditation, trying to reach a very deep and focused meditative state. You have to feel your own power grow inside of you. I find that listening to music is a great way to make this process easier. 

Focus on your goal: in the case of a protection spell, you can try to visualize a protective bubble around you, or a shield that repels unwanted energies. Take your time to make the image very clear in your head.

Pick the object you wish to enchant. In this case, I used a round black onyx stone, which is known to have protective properties (but you can use whichever object you have on hand, as long as you feel a positive connection to it). Cleanse and bless the object however you see fit (I use New Moon Water and Chaos Water).

Draw the enchanting circle on a piece of paper. I start with a basic alchemical circle: I draw the three symbols of mercury, salt and sulphur around the circle and I draw a six-pointed star inside. Then I start drawing inside the circle, trying to remain focused on my goal as much as I can, and leaving a blank space where I will place the object I want to enchant.  

Surround the enchanting circle with salt to protect it from any external interference. I also place obsidian, clear quartz and carnelian around it as a representation of the alchemical transmutation. If you want, you can light a candle that matches your goal (for protection, use a black candle).

Place your object inside the enchanting circle and leave it there to charge for as long as you want. You either can remain focused on your enchantment, or you can leave the circle alone to do its magick. (But please, never leave candles unattended!)

Here’s a closer look at my protection circle. You can copy it down and use it as it is, or you can change it to fit your personal spell. 

If you feel that the object is losing its charge after being used, you can just put it back on the circle and leave it there overnight.

If you’d like to know more about the ideas behind alchemy, check my previous post on the topic here.

anyway i go in to see paul one week in the summer of 2016, and i’m doing my usual bullshit which consists of me talking shit about myself, and paul is staring at me, and then he cuts me off and says that he’s got a new tool for helping people recognize when they’re using negative language, and gets up and goes over to his desk

and i’m like alright hit me with that sweet sweet self-help article my man, because i’m a linguistic learner and whenever paul’s like here i have a tool for you to use it’s pretty much always an article or a book or something

paul opens a drawer, takes something out, and turns back around. i stare.

i say, paul.

is that a nerf gun.

yeah, says paul.

i say, are you gonna shoot me with a nerf gun in this professional setting.

he happily informs me that that’s really up to me, isn’t it. and sits back down. and gestures, like, go ahead, what were you saying?

and i squint suspiciously and start back up about how i’m having too much anxiety to leave the house to run errands, like it was a miracle to even get here, like i’ve forgone getting groceries for the past week and that’s so stupid, what a stupid issue, i’m an idiot, how could i–

a foam dart hits me in the leg.

i go, hey! because my therapist just shot me in the leg. paul blinks at me placidly and raises an eyebrow. i squint again.

i say, slowly, it’s– not a stupid issue, i’m not stupid, but it’s frustrating me and i don’t want it to be a problem i’m having.

no dart this time. okay. sweet.

so the rest of the hour passes with me intermittently getting nailed with tiny foam darts and then swearing and then fixing my language and, wouldn’t you know it, i start liking myself a little more by the end of the session, which is mildly infuriating because paul can tell and he’s very smug about it
