| Mystery signature of the Honorius |
I make frequent mention that I have been initiated into and "given" license to work various European Grimoires.
Not just that, but the Grimoiric traditions I have inherited thankfully bypassed both the Hermetic (Golden Dawn) and Crowley (O.T.O) influences.
My linage passed through the Caribbean islands, including Hispaniola (Haiti-Dominican Republic) via the European slave trade, and during the resulting slave revolts fell into African (largely Bantu speaking or Congo) hands of former slaves circa late 1700.
I am told, and I believe it to be fairly obvious, that European Grimoires (The Black Raven, The Black Hen or Pullet, The Black Goat, The Grimoirum Verum, The Grand or Red Dragon Grimoire, etc) contain an often large, often cryptic and regularly incomplete body of preparatory steps to be completed before the conjurations or "wonders", or "splendors" preformed.
It is in these "preparatory" steps, which the formulary of each Grimoire's own unique initiatory protocols are contained.
Coupled with the fact that these magical practices, systems and ideologies where NOT meant to be common knowledge; the initiatory methods giving one "license" or "right" to apply the occult sciences of each Grimoire are purposely muddled and confused.
But what does the initiation process of a European Grimoire look like and what would it entail?
I can answer that question, but only in part.
Because of my linage, and how it can down to me, I am able only to give answers which are born from the linage I inherited.
So what does that mean?
That means because of the detour out of Europe my linage took, having been practiced by Obeah workers in Jamaica , Bokors in Haiti and secret societies all over the Caribbean; that I cannot give an answer which is not, both heavily, and recently steeped in Afro-Caribbean currents.
While I can imagine what the initiation into the
Honorius Grimorie from the pure European practice probably looked like, it would only be a highly educated guess.
However I can say I know for absolute certain what an initiation into the Honorius Grimoire which was assimilated into a powerful Afro-Caribbean (Criollo) linage looks and feels like.
If the reader of this post compares the beginning of the
Honorius Grimoire to the accounting below, it will be clear an exceedingly similar initiatory sequence is set into motion.
Another caveat must also be considered.
All throughout the beginning of Honorius Grimoire, the potential operator is seeking to forge a deep personal relationship with "Jesus Chris"t... or well... at least it says that.
I now introduce a concept which tends to anger Christian and non-Christian alike.
As there is a bewildering number of Lucifers, there is a similar number of Jesuses or Christs.
 |
| El Christo Rey sitting in Kaballic posture.He IS NOT the Christian Jesus. |
Jesus, like Lucifer, or Lucero (Palo), like Exu (Kimbanda), like Eshu (Ifa), like Ellegua (Santeria), and like Legba (Voudou) is an intercessional spirit who acts on a person's behalf on an individual level, communal level, country level and global level.
And just like the aforementioned other spirits, Jesus or Christ is a legion of spirits under a "World" or "Collective" Christ.
For example Lucero Mundo is "World's" Lucero.
However to really understand Lucero Mundo, you must discover your own
personal Lucero.
A personal Lucero is your own intercessional Lucero spirit who ensures your messages clearly and loudly reach Lucero Mundo.
Lucero Mundo then carries your messages to the other M'pungo all the way to Nzambi and relays messages back down to your personal Lucero who then gives message to you.
In some Palo houses (Monte and Kimbisa mostly) Lucero Mundo is synchronized with Jesus Christ.
Similarly to Lucero, Legba, Exu or Lucifer, a person's own personal Jesus (insert Depeche Mode here) or El Christo Rey, is a little different than everyone else's.
It is this developing a deep relationship with one's own (personal) "redeemer" (Christo Rey) that, at least where the Kabbalic mysteries are concerned, which makes strong and clear the communication between you, your higher self and the Most High.
Redemption is the return to own's Great work, the ability to step off from a bad path, and reconnect to the aspirations of your higher self.
The mysteries of El Christo Rey are, like all other aforementioned comparative spirits, firmly established in the stars, roads, the sun, sacrifice, life and death, light and dark.
It must also be said that the mysteries of El Christo Rey, are indeed Kabbalic, and are far OLDER than the Hebraic Abraham faiths (Jewish, Christian and Muslim) which are perverted, war-for-profit, slavish, spiritual ideologies which ought to be ridiculed into oblivion.
For those new to the idea of an infinite numbering of Christo spirits each acting as a personal "light, truth and the way" for each and every individual on the planet, one could rightly ask how is this metaphysically supported.
The mystery is Kabbalic and has everything to do with the Crucifixion mystery contained with the Tree of Life, and far OLDER and complete than Christianity's sorry knock-off crucifixion story.
Where both Lucifer and Lucero Mundo both "fell" to earth as falling stars, sending trillions upon trillions of fragments flying out from their impact radius (the fragments becoming everyone's individual Lucifer or Lucero), El Christo Rey had his side pieced by a spear (Mars or RED Geburah)) and shed his life force, blood, which was caught in a cup (Jupiter, or BLUE Chessed).
It was Jupiter's power of multiplication, addition and mediation which made "one" now "many" or "infinite".
These Kabbalic mysteries are deep and vast. The little I said above, while the foundation of the mystery itself is in no way fully revealed.
The following is the main body of the initiation into the mysteries of El Christo Rey, and gaining license to make use of the Honorius Grimoire, of which I personally underwent; carried out and transmitted through my Godfather.
The benefits of this initiation are as following:
1. Greatly expanded, strengthened, and healed aura or sphere of influence.
2. An opening and speeding up development of one's psychic faculties.
3. Direct communion with highly elevated entities.
4. Power spiritual protection.
5. A move developed "light body" for Astral projection and increased awareness of the Solar realm also known as Tipareth.
6. Dominion over daemonic entities.
7. Increased aptitude for spiritual, energetic healing.
8. Removal and or reversal of bad magic.
9. Monstrance.
10. Lambskin.
11. Full license to work the Honorius Grimoire.
There is a minor initiation where the person receives a partial transmission, but does walk away with a full consecrated Monstrance also with the following:
 |
| The Monstrance |
1. Greatly expanded, strengthened, and healed aura or sphere of influence.
2. An opening and speeding up development of one's psychic faculties.
3. A move developed "light body" for Astral projection and increased awareness of the Solar realm also known as Tipareth.
The Monstrance is a permanent portable solar force, a gateway to the sephiroth Tipareth instantly banishing all phantoms, cleansing one's spiritual space and exorcising evil entities
Lastly, one may receive just the fully concentrated Monstrance.
There is more to this initiation, and i have NOT included all the necessary steps.
Like the Grimoires, I have choose to omit key parts and muddle things just a little to prevent copycats and hucksters from "re-interpreting" or trying to apply this to other Grimoires.
I might also
write up part of my initiation into the Red Dragon, and Grimoirum Verum in the future.
Afro-Caribbean based initiation into the mysteries of El Christo Rey and Honorius Grimoire
The person who desires to evoke and have dominion over the perverse spirits of darkness, develop telepathy and healing powers, as well as establish relationship with the elevated spirits must begin by observing a three (3) day fast consisting of only solar blessed water, and citrus fruit.
During these three (3) days, four (4) times a day at 6am, 12 noon, 6 pm and 12 midnight, he or she must make the sign of the Kabbalistic cross in the (4) four cardinal directions starting in the east, and turning to the south, then west and finally north.
They must for three (3) days at midnight approach their godfather’s or godmother’s Holy Altar, and confess their their sins, asking El Christo Rey for redemption.
For these three (3) days he or she is to do little else other than meditate on the mysteries of El Christo Rey and the Kabbalic mysteries of Tipareth (Solar secrets) while receiving teachings from his or her godfather or godmother.
For these three (3) days he or she may neither change clothing nor bathe.
At sunrise a blessed, cleansed and appropriately decorated white rooster will be passed over him or her and then sacrificed. The first feather of it’s left wing being plucked and preserved for use at the required time.
The rooster’s eyes, heart and tongue must be torn out, then dried in the sun. Afterwards reduced to a powder.
This powder needs to be kept for a later time.
The rooster’s corpse must now be placed in a hole, honey poured over the body in the hole, the godfather or godmother washes their hands and sacrificial knife with blessed water directly over the hole, and finally red wine is next poured into the whole.
The hole is covered, and the dirt sprayed with rum and tobacco smoke blown over it.
A cross of palm must be placed on the burial mound, while at each of the four corners of the mound the following signs must be drawn with the right thumb.
***Signs omitted for initiatory reasons***
A white candle placed on the mound in front of the palm cross, and left to burn down.
Now the throat of a blessed, cleansed and appropriately decorated young male lamb (ram) shall be cut and the blood drained into a bucket for later use.
He or she will skin the lamb, and shall cast the lamb’s tongue and heart into a newly kindled fire. The ashes shall be preserved for use at the proper time.
The flesh of the lamb shall be placed in a hole, honey poured over the body in the hole, the godfather or godmother washes their hands and sacrificial knife with blessed water directly over the hole, and finally red wine is next poured into the whole.
The hole is covered, and the dirt sprayed with rum and tobacco smoke blown over it.
His or her godfather or godmother will with their right thumb inscribe on the grave the characters here indicated:
***Signs Omitted for initiatory reasons***
A white candle is placed on top of the burial mound and let to burn down.
For the space of the next three days he or she shall sprinkle the four corners with holy water with hyssop, and then while standing on top of the burial mound saying:
Sprinkle me, Oh Lord, with hyssop, and I shall be cleansed! Wash me, and I shall be made whiter than snow!
While cleansing themselves over the burial mound with holy water and hyssop.
He or she then recites the Agnus Dei.
After the aspersion he or she recite the following prayer while kneeling facing the east
“Christ, Redeemer of men, who, being the Lamb without spot, was immolated for the salvation of the human race, who alone wast found worthy to open the Book of Life, impart such virtue to this lambskin that it may receive the signs which we shall trace thereon, written with Thy blood, so that the figures, signs, and words may become efficacious; and grant that this skin may preserve us against the wiles of the demons; that they may be terrified at the sight of these figures, and may only approach them trembling. Through Christ, who livest and reignest through all ages. So be it”.
He or she will have rompimiento (a ritual cutting off of all clothing) performed outside facing the sun.
Naked, he or she shall be have the blood of the lamb poured over them.
Next they shall be bathed in sun blessed holy water which had been steeped with herbs, and finally re-dressed in fresh new white clothes.
They are given a white taper candle to hold while his or her godfather or godmother speaking prayers of resurrection spoken over him or her.
Their old clothes burned and ashes buried with nine (9) cents.
For the rest of the initiation, he or she, may drink no wine and eat no meat.
He or she shall now approach their godfather’s or godmother’s Holy Altar. Kneeling recite the gradual psalms (119-133), sometimes called the Songs of Ascent while being perfumed with frankincense and myrrh.
Next, he or she will rise at midnight, return and kneel before to his or her godfather’s or godmother’s Holy Altar. His or her godfather or godmother will pass a cleansed and blessed dove over him or her, and sacrifice the bird over his or her head, while speaking prayers which call down the holy spirit over them (his or her head will be wrapped with a white head wrap which must not be removed until dawn).
He or she will hold a wafer of bread in both their right and left hands.
The godfather or godmother will now give him or her holy communion, dripping the blood of the dove over the wafer of bread in his or her right hand, and drip some blood of the dove in a chalice of consecrated red wine.
He or she will then recite the following prayer:
“My redeemer, and radiance of the light of the Most High. Thou who for the salvation of mankind suffered death on the cross. Thou who, before being abandoned to thine enemies, by an impulse of ineffable love did institute the sacrament of thy body. Thou has made it possible, even for the most most wretched and miserable to obtain redemption, and have the privilege of making daily commemoration thereof; thou did deign unto thine servant, thus holding thee living body in his hands, all strength and ability for the profitable application of that power with which has been entrusted against the horde of rebellious spirits. Thou splendor and radiance is great indeed, and they all tremble at the utterance of thy name, and upon that holy name I perform miraculous wonders. Christ, be thou my help, walk with me now and forever!”
On the following dawn, he or she will kneel at his or her godfather’s or godmother’s Holy Altar.
He or she will have their head washed with holy water, hyssop and other herbs. The godfather or godmother will dry their hair and then anoint his or her head with El Christo Rey oil.
Afterwards he or she will place the plucked rooster’s feather upon the altar along with a new sharp knife.
The following signs will be inscribed on a sheet of new clean white paper with consecrated magic ink using the tip of the feather like a quill upon the Holy Altar.
The paper should be folded in a new veil of violet silk, along with the wafer of bread.
Using the new knife, he or she scratches a cross into a yellow taper candle and places that along with the knife back on the Holy Altar.
At midnight he or she, having been sprinkled with holy water, must light the yellow taper candle.
With the candle lighted he or she must recite psalm 77 and speak the Office of the Dead with both Lauds and Vespers.
Then he or she will say:
“Deliver us, Oh Lord, from the fear of hell. Let not the demons destroy my soul when I shall raise them from the deep pit, when I shall command them to do my will. May the day be bright, may the sun and moon shine forth, when I shall call upon them. Terrible of aspect are they, deformed and horrible to sight; but do Thou restore unto them their angelic shapes when I shall impose my will upon them. Oh Lord deliver me from those of the dread visage, and grant that they shall be obedient when I shall raise them up from hell, when I shall impose my will upon them”.
After the Office of the Dead, he or she will snuff the candle and retire for the night.
The skin of the lamb shall be spread out in the middle of a field.
The ground blessed with holy water, rum and tobacco smoke before being laid down and for the space of of six (6) days, four (4) time a day (6am, 12 noon, 6pm, 12 midnight) sprinkled with holy water.
On the seventh (7th) day before the rising of the sun, the lambskin shall be covered with the ashes of the heart and tongue, and with the ashes also of the Rooster while speaking psalm 78.
The Litanies of the Holy Name of El Christo Rey must then be repeated, and the following passage included at the end.
“Immolated Lamb, be Thou a pillar of strength against the demons. Slain Lamb, give power over the Powers of Darkness! Immolated Lamb, grant favour and strength unto the binding of the Rebellious Spirits. So be it”.
The lambskin shall be stretched for eighteen (18) days.
On the nineteenth (19) day the fleece shall be removed, burned to ashes, and buried in the same place.
His or her godfather or godmother will write the word VELLUS above it with their finger along with the following characters:
***Signs omitted for initiatory reasons***
While drawing these characters, the godfather or godmother will speak these words:
“May this which hath been reduced into ashes preserve against the demons through the name of Christ”.
Now the godfather or godmother will add these signs.
***Signs omitted for initiatory reasons***
Lastly the lambskin is set to face the sun for three (3) days, and the ensuing characters being cut with the sharp new knife:
***Signs omitted for initiatory reasons***
This being accomplished, recite psalm 71.
and cut the following characters:
***Signs omitted for initiatory reasons***
Recite psalm xcv and cut subsequently these characters :
***Signs omitted for initiatory reasons***
Next recite psalm 77, and compose the following figure:
***Signs omitted for initiatory reasons***
Which being accomplished, recite Psalm ii, and then make another figure as follows
***Signs omitted for initiatory reasons***
Recite psalm cxv and now being wrapped in the skin of the lamb by his or her godfather or godmother, he or she will say aloud:

"Approaching prefect here in exacting detail is the near unconquerable potency of the vices which these workers' labor has produced. This is chemical warfare, and one who is run too, not ran from. This weapon, like poisoned water, will flood the lowest point of society first. Ravage the lives there, deplete the wealth there, and serve to eradicate all currently occupying this station as well as all who stumble into it. Stumble they will. Fire and then ash will push them, from the middle outward, push them out to the edge and then over it".
