- Read Agrippa's Three Books of Occult Philosophy, Volume 3, Chapters 20, 21, 22, and 26.
- Determine the name of your Genius.
- Conjure your Genius using The Art of Drawing Spirits into Crystals
- (Alternately, obtain Knowledge and Conversation with your Holy guardian Angel)
- Ask for and receive a Solar Initiation
- Conjure the Archangels of the Planetary Spheres, beginning with the Moon and working your way up through the spheres. Request initiation into their spheres, and the integration of the forces they represent within your own sphere. Refer to Agrippa's Three Books of Occult Philosophy, Volume 2, Chapter 13 for the names of the spirits to conjure. Refer to the Magical Calendar for their seals, and again use The Art of Drawing Spirits into Crystals for the methodology.
- Repeat the previous step a lot. Each time you go through an initiation into the spheres, you will get something deeper. Note that this phase can go on for years.
- As you receive initiation and empowerment, use the information, instruction, and abilities you gain to change the world around you to align it to your Will. You will gradually discover this Will as you continue to go through the Seven Spheres.
- When you are ready, conjure Iophial of the Sphere of the Sphere of the Fixed Stars, or the 28 Spirits of the Mansions of the Moon to receive training, initiation, and integration of the lessons of the Eighth Sphere.
- Continue the process and continue to be refined as your innate internal god-ness manifests in the material realm.
Note that Agrippa's Three Books of Occult Philosophy, Trithemius' Art of Drawing Spirits into Crystals, and the Magical Calendar are available online for free at Esoteric Archives.
Two questions:
ReplyDeleteHow do you determine if you're ready for the 8th sphere workings?
Do you recommend conjuring the angels of the zodiac signs as well?
When might one be ready to conjure Iophiel? And what seal would you recommend to use to conjure Iophiel, if there is one to use?
ReplyDeleteI never thought about whether I was ready or not to do the next phase, I just kind of got the bug to do something, and I did it. I didn't even realize that I was passing through levels on the way, it's just sort of in retrospect that I figured out what was going on.
ReplyDeleteI conjured one of the archangels of the zodiac once. I'm not dead yet, and may get back to the rest eventually. I recommend conjuring whatever you feel drawn to conjure, and I recommend you write about it where people can see and learn.
For the conjuration of Iophiel I used a very good technique I learned from a very bad man. I visualized the letters of his name in Celestial script floating before me. I let myself fall into the letters, the pinpoint of my consciousness tracing them forty or fifty feet high, over and over until they were illuminated from within, shining with pinpoints of stars that moved and breathed indicating the spirit was there. When I saw the symbols become the intelligence, I communed with him.
Note this is not the Iophial of the Planetary table of Jupiter, it's the Iophial from Agrippa's Scale of the Number 10.
1,2,3,4,5: Check
ReplyDeletenow to start on 6 - 10
How do we know which Iophiel is from the 8th and 9th and from the Planetary table of Jupiter?
ReplyDeleteWill the real Slim Shady please stand up?
How is the Genius related to the Almutem Figuris? Should she be conjured in the day or hour of the given planet?
ReplyDeleteJust one general comment; be very careful regarding exactly *how* you ask for Solar Initiation. ;)
