The empty vessels, heads and hearts of Neo-Hermeticism.

Should you present yourself as an adept of Solomonic Magic, and (for whatever reason) you do not study (in detail) both the Greater and Lesser Keys of Solomon then you CANNOT be an adept of Solomonic Magic. Should you present yourself as an adept of Solomonic Magic, and (for whatever reason) you do not practice (with strict adherence) to the protocols set forth in both the Greater and Lesser Keys of Solomon then you are absolutely NOT an adept of Solomonic Magic.

What are you exactly? That depends on context. Most individuals could be labeled as simply misinformed, but a few would rightly be deemed frauds. It is one thing to say that you are a student of, or even simply a dabbler in, the occult. There is nothing wrong with that. However if you are claiming to be an adeptus of the Solomonic Arts,and speak as an authority...you better be on point. Expect to get vetted.

I am an adeptus of Solomonic Magic. I have been INITIATED  into the traditions within the Grimoirum Verum, Grand Grimoire, Black Pullet, Sanctum Regnum, Black Raven, Arbatel, and Honorius, as well as the Greater and Lesser Keys of Solomon.

I am not an internet trained occultist. I began practicing Solomonic Magic in 1990 when I was twelve. My spiritual Godfather was regularly consulted by Masonic lodges (and many other magical lodges) in California on ritual/magical regulations and protocols. By the time I was eighteen I had read L.W De Laurence's The Master Key, and The Great Book of Magical Art six or seven times, as well as A.E Waite's Book of Black Magic and of Pacts (If you have not read those books...read those books). I am my 30s now. You can triple the amount of times I've read those aforementioned books, and easily calculate my hours of occult practice into the thousands. 

The fictitious King Solomon (formed from a collaboration of magi) is said to have bound seventy-two daemons into a vessel of brass. Why did King Solomon do this? A myriad of speculated reasons persist, however I think the most honest one involves gathering a slave labor force to build his temple. When Solomon's temple was completed and he was finished with the daemons, King Solomon tossed the brass vessel into a deep lake (other stories say the ocean or a bottomless pit). When the brass vessel was eventually rediscovered and reopened, a strong hot wind escaped, but the vessel was otherwise empty. 

I am concerned fraudulent Solomonic Magic dabblers who are claiming to be adeptus will begin selling brass vessels. I am also concerned that these same frauds will attempt to greatly overstate and misrepresent themselves as magicians, by claiming to possess a brass vessel. This casts further shade on the Solomonic tradition, a tradition already damaged by the lack of legitimate initiations, and plagued by the irresponsible as well as lazy (physically and intellectually) and spineless occult theorists who associate themselves with it. 

Frater Ashen Chassan is one such occult theorist.

Frater Ashen Chassan's over turned vase of Solomon.

On a forum thread he arbitrarily (no relation to the topic of the thread) posted a picture of his brass vessel (an upside down brass vase). An embarrassingly obvious act of A.S.B (attention seeking behavior). I queried if he had ever read the Lesser Key of Solomon or understood Kabbalistic magic. His grand standing responses to my questions proved he did not. In particular his insistence that Kaballistic and Goetic magic are separate. With one fell swoop all and credibility lost...

Frater Ashen Chassan claims Solomonic Magic, a magical system rooted entirely in Jewish mysticism, is not based on Kabbalah...which IS Jewish mysticism. It doesn't get much worse than that. I invitie Frater Ashen Chassan to spend serious alone time, and really examine what he thinks he knows.

In an effort to try and undo the sheer fuckery rampant in both modern Hermeticism and Goetic magic; I will say this:  If you do not understand the Kaballah, and by its virtue Kaballistic magic, you CANNOT understand nor preform Goetic magic. The authors of both the Greater and Lesser Keys did not include a primer on Kabalistic magic, and rightly so. It was (and is) assumed any credible magician of the time (or any time) would already be well versed in the foundation of his (now days also her) practice.

Secret Seal of Solomon

The picture Frater Ashen Chassan posted of his personal brass vessel speaks volumes concerning the depth of his practice; primarily there is a lot lacking, and little to be desired. But how is it I know this? Simple. The secret seal of Solomon, or in this case, the lack thereof. In the picture Frater Ashen Chassan posted of his brass vessel, he has engraved the image of the secret seal of Solomon on the top of the brass vase (which is actually the bottom base). But this  is wrong. The engraving serves only as a symbolic representation and nothing more. It is the equivalent of using a replica human skull for acts of necromancy. A farce and in many respects insulting.



Let us read how the Lesser Key of Solomon says to produce the secret seal of Solomon.

(I recite from memory with some paraphrasing). 

To draw the seal with the correct amount of energy, the Magician must have spent a full month abstaining from all forms of sexual activity and instead devotedly praying to the Highest of the High as well as fasting for purity and atonement. The secret seal of Solomon MUST be drawn on virgin parchment paper with the BLOOD of a black rooster who had not yet fucked a hen.

The seal must ALSO be drawn at midnight on a Tuesday (Mars) or Saturday (Saturn) on a night when the Moon is increasing in light (New to Full) and in the sign of Virgo.

Once drawn the secret seal of Solomon is to be perfumed by an incense made of alum, raisins dried in the sun (NOT STORE BOUGHT), dates, cedar, and lignum aloes.

Taking another look at Frater Ashen Chassan's seal I am able to pick out the steps he omitted...all of them.

In addition an adeptus of  Solomonic Magic,  I am a Palero or priest of Palo Mayombe, also called an Ngangalero. I know how to make spirit pots, fetishes and vessels. When an nganga (pot or vessel) or nkisi (fetish) I am building requires hippo tooth, I get fucking hippo tooth. Not a dog tooth, or a camel tooth, or deer tooth. No. I get a hippo's tooth. It is the same with animal sacrifice do feed an nganga, nkisi as well as to draw a seal, sigil or write a pact; I make the sacrifice by killing a living animal, I do NOT buy a raw steak and wring the cold lifeless blood out of it or let frozen chicken thaw over the mpaka or nkisi (seriously... I know some despicable Paleros who do this).

I have a REAL brass vessel because I made it the REAL way.

I spent a month in abstinence, prayer, and fasting. I procured a young black rooster, and housed it to ensure it's own sexual purity. I sacrificed the rooster of a Tuesday midnight during a waxing moon in Virgo. I drew the secret seal of Solomon in the blood of the rooster on virgin parchment and finally I perfumed the seal with alum, raisins dried in the sun (NOT STORE BOUGHT), dates, cedar, and lignum aloes. This process took timing, planning, and determination.

Making the secret seal of Solomon is a pact, or covenant with God the Almighty and Most High. The secret seal of Solomon is the doorway that the license (which gives the authority) to work the Solomonic tradition is delivered. Such a covenant can only be made in blood. Without the secret seal of Solomon, there is NO brass vessel, and there is NO dependable conjurations.

But, Daddy Croc, do I really need to make animal sacrifice, learn Kabalistic magic, and adhere to grimoric protocol? Yes. Yes you must. Why do you, or anyone, get a free pass? Why did the magicians of yesteryear have to follow these protocols but modern magicians do not? How can modern occultists expect the same results granted by the efforts of the magicians of yesteryear when they half ass (at best) their occult workings?

Times have changed? Really? What exactly has changed? The answer is nothing. It is still the stone age... we just have cars now and more self-entitled lazy elitist crybabies who deserve a heavy bone club to the head. All the same rules still apply whether it be the jungle or the concrete jungle, whether it be ancient Rome or Modern Rome (American and the UK)...its still ideologically Rome.

You say you are against killing animals and thereby excused from preforming sacrifice? Good chance you still eat meat. So no, you are not against killing of animals as you are willing to benefit from the death of an animal, just so long as someone else does the dirty work. You are a vegetarian or vegan? Then you simply cannot ever vibrationally align with the sub-lunar DAEMONS of the Lemegeton. You however are exceptionally well suited to the Arbatel De Magia Veterum.

To know, to will and to dare.

This axiom of Ceremonial Magic should act as your guiding light and embolden your heart. Nothing is gained in the empty, the hollow or symbolic, as the only actions which could result will be empty, hollow, or symbolic in return.  Do you want a car, a job, victory over your enemies, and to triumph over adversary.. or empty symbolic gestures of a car, a job, victory and triumph?  "As above, so below"? Ring a bell???

When I endeavored to summon Lucifuge Rocofale of the Grand Grimoire I fucking followed protocol and at 3:33 am, alone, covered in the blood of a goat and deep within the San Bernadino  mountains of California... Lucifuge Rocofale appeared. What followed was horrific, my mettle was thoroughly tested, but now I know for certain there is no man or spirit who I can not force to bow before me (excluding deity level entities). Should you "Know, Will and Dare" as well as follow the protocols of the Grand Grimoire then maybe you too could say the same. So it goes for the brass vessel as well.

For fuck's sake E.A. God help you if that is another banana. 

Do not be like E.A Koetting and "summon" Lucifuge Rocofale (there was no summoning..as Lucifuge DID NOT show) in your mom's back yard, and offer him a piece of fruit (a banana). Sadly, but not surprisingly, this is EXACTLY what happened. I trust the source I heard it from. Neither be like Frater Ashen Chassan, turning brass vases upside and calling them brass vessels of Solomon.

If you are going to be an adeptus, you need to know, will and dare as an adeptus does. In the occult it is works not grace that claim your title.

Christians think about God, but Magicians know God.

Anima Sola... it is best you don't...but since you are going too anyway...

Anima Sola

La Santisima Muerte, Saint Cyprian, La Madama, Black Hawk, Saint Expedite, and now introducing the newest flavor of the month for the cult of wanna-be sorcerers (CWS)...Anima Sola.  Maybe, just maybe, Anima Sola will give CWS what sever lack of dedication, zero practice and bewildering apprehension towards authentic initiation has thus far kept out of their reach...authority and credibility. And if not (a definite not) rest assured their will be (there WILL be) a new saint or spirit's mystery to exploit and tarnish.

Just like La Madama, Anima Sola comprises a vast legion of spirits. There is not an Anima Sola but an untold mass of millions and millions of dead who are Anima Solas. As stated Anima Sola are the spirits of earthbound (but more earthbound than earthbound) dead who are, because of a myriad of reasons, alone or lost and or trapped in the earth plane. Anima Sola suffer significant torrents, as such they are distressed and desperate...which means they are very dangerous.

Similar to how a drowning man can inadvertently pull his would be rescuers under alongside with him, Anima Solas can very easily become disastrous to those trying to offer them "light and progress", no matter what the intention is behind the act of kindness. Let that be a lesson to those sadly afflicted with the idiocy of the new-age... love and light does NOT inherently protect you from anything...never has and never will.

So what is the reason for attracting the attention of the Anima Solas?

This is largely answered by both your spiritual tradition and intentions.

From the perspective of Espiritismo-Spiritism (Scientific-Kardecian, Criollo and even Umbanda, Maria Lionza and to some degree Palo and Kimbanda) it is the oath and duty of priest or priestess to offer light and progress to the dead. It is the will of God, that all "his" children/creations eventually attain their highest potential. It is rewarding spiritual work as many times the dead you elevate offer help in return and will ask higher level spirits to also give you their blessing. In the Espiritismo-Spiritism Maria LIonza, and Umbanda traditions this progression is offered freely with no expectation of help in return (however its nice when the kindness is paid back and it usually is). In traditions like Palo Mayombe and Kimbanda pacts and bargains can be struck to ensure that aid is secured by the dead the Tata or Yaya (priest or priestess) offers light and progress too.

The initiated priest or priestess of those aforementioned traditions have been given the license and authority by very powerful high level spirits to safely work with the dead. But, even with that same license and authority, we priests and priestess still handle the Anima Solas with special gloves. If earthbound dead are seen as "hot" then Anima Solas are typically "lava hot". Individuals who are not initiated drawing the attention of the Anima Sola is generally egregiously stupid. All anyone needs to do is research the deteriorating mental health, and increase of domestic abuse and murder/suicides among so-called paranormal researchers...and  they are not dealing with Anima Solas... but earthbound dead.

From a black magic perspective, if the earthbound dead are known to work quickly (because of their close proximity to the material plane) then the Anima Sola work just that much faster. Also... where earthbound dead can often want specific things in return for their aid, and may or may not be willing to do the work you want it to preform (often for moral reasons) the Anima Sola are extremely desperate and willing work for just candle light and water. Also the desperation of the Anima Sola means they are willing to do anything to get that light and water. Imagine a man being slowly broken on a rack for hours upon hours. The pain caused by having his body pulled apart is also pulling apart his sanity. He can become so distressed and desperate that he would be willing to do or say anything to make the torture stop.

Anima Sola in this way are used as the "intranquil spirits" to dominate, control and destroy.

Light and water act as a reprieve to an Anima Sola's torment, and thus the Anima Sola becomes very dependent on them. A priest/ess or sorcerer using the Anima Sola for evil or questionable purposes is not elevating the Anima Sola out of their torment, only staving it off for a time, and keeping the Anima Sola in it's "hell" because in order to get the light and water it must do evil or at the very least questionable things. The sorcerer and the enslaved Anima Sola enter into a strange relationship. The Anima Sola wants the light and water that the sorcerer offers, but is kept imprisoned in its own hell by the acts it must do it order to get the light and water. The sorcerer, sooner than latter, becomes the target of the Anima Sola, and because Anima Sola is legion, he or she (unless extremely both powerful and knowledgeable) is now oppressed by many exceedingly angry vengeful dead to give them light and water, and now whatever else they want (generally vices like cigars, alcohol, drugs and porn...but also blood) with no aid in return, simply to alleviate the oppression...for a time.

A lay person, the internet trained spiritualist, the new-ager, is many, many more times than not, simply unable to handle the aggressive and desperate nature of the Anima Sola. These well meaning but misguided people, whether they are trying to elevate the dead or exploit them, will be quickly overrun and turned into a slave of the Anima Sola.

Because the Anima Sola will soon (assuming they are not already... I avoid YouTube like a plague of stupidity that is also somehow infected with AIDS... so I would not know) be the topic of numerous YouTube videos made by morons... I will detail the ONLY safe way to help the Anima Sola and "maybe", hopefully receive their grace and blessing for your good works.

First NO images! NONE. There is an iconic lithograph of a woman, often in chains, and surrounded by flames. This image is used by initiated priests and priestess, of which many of you are probably not, and this lithograph becomes a focal point... you are not ready to have this type pf energy "pool" and condense in your working/living space.

You are to offer the Anima Sola these three things and these three things ONLY:

1. A glass of COLD water.
2. A single WHITE candle.
3. Prayer.

"Hear mortal men, the cries of the imprisoned soul, alone and abandoned in a dark prison. Anima Sola, soul of peace and war. Soul of sea and of land. I desire that all that I have lost be returned.

Anima Sola, you who are alone and abandoned, I accompany you in your grief.

I take pity upon you.For I know of the grief and suffering you must endure within your harsh and long imprisonment. I offer you this prayer and glass of water because I desire to lessen your pain and quench your thirst. Sad Soul, Lonely Soul, no one calls you, But I call you. No one looks for you, but I seek you out. 

No one loves you, but I adore you. No one remembers you, but I keep you in my heart. I offer you this lit candle so that you may find your way into the light. In this moment I offer to you my meritorious labour, and all that I have suffered, suffer and will suffer in this life, even though it can never compare to yours. I humbly pray that you finish paying for your mortal sins of the flesh so that you may find the grace of God, and be lifted from your imprisonment, With your grace you shall be my benefactor."

You will do this only ONE time a week. You will make NO promises and you will NOT ask for anything specific.

Place a glass of COLD water on the ground or on a table with NO other religious symbols other than maybe a cross (One of the OLDEST religious symbols and not owned by any single religion... it is a symbol for among the highest understanding of "God", or the Highest of the High).

Place a WHITE candle next to the glass of water.

1. Make the sign of the Kabbalistic cross over your body (forehead, navel, right shoulder, and left shoulder).

2. Light the WHITE candle (which should not be a seven day candle but a 3-6 hour candle).

3. Offer the following prayer.


Now be done for the rest of the week. DO NOT sit in front of the candle and water and meditate on the Anima Sola. DO NOT sit and talk to the Anima Sola, DO NOT tell them your troubles or make specific requests of them. You are offering this act as an act of good will. You are saying you want what you have lost to be returned to you and that they should be your benefactor, but that is it. It will be up to the Anima Sola to decide to help you, and/or you will receive the blessing of higher level beings for giving the Anima Sola elevation.

If after a FULL year of honoring the Anima Sola is this EXACT way and you want to do more... you may contact me and we will discuss what more you can safely do in order to deepen your practice.

Kill Shot! David Rockefeller gets the lance!

*This post is best read with the Wu-Tang clan playing! Protect ya neck! Listen carefully.....

Shoulda learnt ta protect ya neck kid

Let Monday 3/20/2017 be known as the day which culminates a 10 year campaign of psychic warfare and black magick battles.  Today is the day the dragon named David Rockefeller fell to my Nfumbe, my Goetic magic and veneration of Warrior Saints. I have spent the last 10 years as an argent cavalier leading siege after siege, and charge after charge against the Illuminati stronghold. Today the lance finally tastes blood, and pierces David's black maggot infested heart. Today is the day an army of Congo and Native people spirits take retribution for the millions of lives taken, extorted, raped and ruined by this sub-human troglodyte villain. The day is OURS!

In case you did not know it was David Rockefeller I was referring too in my 1/10/17 blog post here and my 1/20/17 blog post here.

The new Rockefeller Plaza

Moments after I learned Rockefeller fell, I as War Chief of my Palo Mayombe temple, dispatched my Nfumbe, the Congo spirits, spirits of the sacred site Bear's Tipi (Devil Tower in Northeastern Wyoming), Anima Solas, and a very special Warrior Saint to bring before me in chains the twisted spirit of David Rockefeller who was still in the confusion found in the transition between life into death.

David Rockefeller now serves ME as my newest pet dog (named him Rocky), chained forever into service, to begin righting the incalculable wrong he has committed. Genocide, slavery, human trafficking, pedophilia, theft, extortion, war provoking, and murder...of MILLIONS, to name but a few. Believe me when I say I am going to put this bitch to ENDLESS work... trust that!

To war, to war, to war! 

Glory! Glory! Glory! To my fellow champions (you KNOW who you are) who have stood shoulder to shoulder with me in this fight. No one else and I mean NO ONE in the occult world had the backbone or balls to stand against the retaliations, and backlashes which came from pursuing such a hard and high level target. Our suffering was not in vain my friends! We shall be found on the right side of history.

Ever onward! Every forward!

With licence of Lucero Mundo to open the door and Zarabanda to clear the way my temple walks fearlessly in 2017!

1/28/17

Nsala Malecun, Malecun Nsala!

1/28/17

We enter 2017 with fearless commitment to our spiritual practice and beliefs. We stand under the indomitable protection of the unconquerable spirit of war Zarabanda. He is the machete who leads the way, who wins all battles and defends all who follow. We walk with Lucero Mundo. He is our guiding light, for he opens our doors to good fortune while shutting the doors of our enemies so they may know only hell and confusion. Tonight we asked that Lucero Mundo reveal the 2017 path of this temple; map our roads on earth and chart our stars in the heavens.

1/28/17 Vortex of gathered dead around the candles.

Lucero Mundo be our bright north star, and never stop shining. We shall never be lost with you as our guide. Zarabanda clear our path, and step by step we shall march over our foes. Our enemies are your enemies Zarabanda. Tonight we elevate our ancestors, and spirit guides while feeding our enemies to the malicious dead. We receive healing, they known only sickness. We have prosperity, they know only poverty. We obtain love, they know only isolation. We experience life, they know only death.  We gain victory, they know
only defeat!

1/28/17 Vortex of gathered dead around the candles.

The black dog of Zarabnda!!!

In my rama or tradition of Palo Mayombe, not only do we forge deep and meaningful relationships with the human dead...but animals too. I am readying my Nfumbe (a spirit of the human dead all priests and priestess of Palo Mayombe blood pact with at the time of their scratching) to take the spirit of a black Pitt Bull (an animal sacred to Zarabanda, and pictured below) for a "walk".  Lets see what he fetches....

DOG WILL HUNT......

The Vampire arts of Palo Mayombe

Palo Mayombe: We own the night.

The lore and arcana of Palo Mayombe is deep and vast. Just as great is the Palero's (Palera's) ability to heal, and exorcise evil, so equally great is the terrifying "night time assaults" arts of Palo Mayombe to make some one wither and die. The vampiric arts are but just one of these "night time assaults", found near exclusively within the kingdom of the cemetery, that help bolster the highly formidable magical religion and fearsome reputation that Palo Mayombe rightly deserves.

The art of the Vampire can be a perilous one. Unlike the Goetia practice of vampirism, which in my linage of grimorie tradition is held by the daemon Guland from the Grimoirum Verum, the vampire art of Palo Mayombe is held by the both truly beautiful but extremely dangerous Centilla N'doki.

This is not simply a matter of, "a rose by any other name would smell just as sweet", but a strict differential in terms of both methaphysic and application.

The Kingdom of the Cemetery

The power of the daemons, such as Guland, are on the astral frequency. The method of vampirism is thus an astral attack... attacking, and draining the target's astral body... which then manifests that damage and drainage into their physical body. The vampire hunts the astral realm, and the art is employed via astral projection.

The energy drained away from the target, is then stored inside the astral body of the magician and so too does that new energy manifest into the physical body of the magician. One is strongly urged to study the Tree of Life to see this process, and to further their talent with Ceremonial Magic in general.

Palo Mayombe is pure NECROMANCY, and while the astral realm, and the realm of the dead or Kalunga, are not far from each other, the distinction is akin to America and Mexico.... they are close (touching) in proximity, but culturally and ideologically (vibrationally) worlds apart.

The vampirism of Palo Mayombe, under Centilla N'Doki, is drawing energy away from the "living spirit" (the living spirit dwells on the threshold between the world of the material and realm of the dead) of the target and done in real time through means of the M'paka/Nganga while under trance. The infusion of energy into the Priest or Priestess from the target is tangible, akin to sinking their teeth into flesh and physically goring on the target's blood.  The effects for target and Priest or Priestess are near immediate.

There are however very real dangers in this practice. The potency of the target's energy being so close to their physical body, is intoxicating, and can lead to blood lust. Also the infusion is direct, so the contaminants in the target's blood/energy matrix do not go through the greater filtration system like they do from the astral realm to the physical realm (Yesod to Maulkuth). If the target is sick, a junkie, or has other afflictions, the Priest or Priestess can take the energy matrix of those afflictions into their own living spirit and begin to experience the same maladies.

This is MY Chamba 

The Priest or Priestess of Palo Mayombe needs to immediately being internal cleasing to rid their living spirit of these "toxins", leaving behind only the pure life force which strengthens and empowers. The internal cleansing is "fire" based, and in my linage or rama of Palo Mayombe, I used liberal amounts of Chamba (the magical drink of the Congo... 21 pepper rum... and then... things I cannot mention) and tobacco, in ways that might be obvious and then in ways which are not.

I will be frank... often times a bout of painful dry heaving and or scorching vomit are the unpleasant but necessary result of this internal cleansing.

I have began such night time assaults (1/9/2017) against a deprived and evil man (*known in the occult community*). I will continue until he is a grey withered husk shitting himself in his death bed.  I will then entrap his soul into the Nganga and make him work for elevation.

The Beautiful and Dangerous Centilla N'Doki

The moral question here, along side even preforming this act, is what the Priest or Priestess does with this energy they have siphoned.

The daemon Guland of the Grimorium Verum is said to "causeth but also cureth all disease". That siphoned energy can be used to heal others. The same is with Centilla N'Doki, she is quite literally, the "this into that", poor to rich, sick to well, life to death, etc and yet also the reverse direction, rich to poor, etc. She, Centilla N'Doki, stands at the cemetery gates and rules over the biggest transition/transformation a human can experience, that being life into death and death into rebirth...but all other transitions are her's too (lycanthropy in particular).

Honoring the Nkisi

As a righteous, but active war chief, Priest of Palo Mayombe I will use the energy of my target to further bolster the positive growth of the members of my temple and help build communities where the sick actions of my target will have no room to flourish in the future.

Exonerations and Extolations: The Praise of God in the command of daemons. Why "Christian" prayers as part of Goetic magic.

I dislike breaking my own occult pet-peeves however in this rare instance it will be helpful to do so in the illustration of an important point. One of my major occultic pet-peeves is the near insufferable and irresponsible manner the daemons of the Goetia are so causally mentioned now alongside the Exus, and Pombagiras of Kimbanda, as if they are interchangeable....which they are not.  It is without question, that the Black Table spiritism practiced in Brazil utilizing the Grimorium Verum, did indeed summon forth the Exus and Pombagiras of Kimbanda as workers IN the temple, not just the guardians of the temple as in Umbanda.

The usage of the Grimorium Verum during the Black Table allowed for a diabolical, but also redeeming, conjunction of human dead/deceased and astral daemon.  A ferocious tradition was rendered; the dark infernal magics of Europe was paired with the savage heat of nercomantic sorcery from Africa's Congo region. 

*The Grimorium Verum is not the Lesser Key of Solomon. Individuals claiming linage of "Quimbanda" with whom Exu Bael, Exu Stollas, or Exu Paimon are served, or make "Exu" heads, are liars and frauds who deserve no respect. 

The Exus and Pombagiras of Kimbanda are the spirits of the human dead who through the calling of Astral Daemons, acquired dominions/principalities near identical to the astral daemons of the Grimorium Verum. These are NOT "synchronizations" as lazy pseudo-intellectuals/occultists will ascribe, but rather a type of sponsorship relationship and no more can be said concerning that manner.  Exu Money Caller and the daemon Clauneck share a very real vibratory connection, but that does not mean that by calling one you are summoning the other.   

Nzambi is the great and Almighty within Kimbanda, and all the Exus and Pombagira seek to elevate their own spiritual natures within the light of Nzambi. The Exus and Pombagiras serve as our personal devils or daemons to help humanity come to realize their own vices, come to find ever progressing uses for their "daemons" and ultimately elevate each other...Exu/Pombagira and humans.

You can elevate your own Exus and Pombagiras by not thoughtlessly acting on their own and thereby your own "base" nature. Even the darkest "demonic" of Exu or Pombagira, can on a personal level, become a saintly ally.  One's own "personal" head or King or Queen, Eux or Pombagira, serves as your guardian and "balance point" when advancing and learning with the other Exus and Pombagiras. This "head" Exu serves to help you overcome the infernally charged necromantic forces of Kimbanda, and prevents your astral body from being torn to shreds from it.

It is essential that one work long and dedicately (maybe for their entire lives) with their personal "head" Exu and the Exus and Pombagiras whom come for the person at the time of their reading into Kimbanda before forging alliances with Exus and Pombagiras who are not compatible with one's spiritual frame. Through this one can develop the occultic powers and supernatural abilities associated with the kingdoms where their Exus and Pombagira reside... the mastery of but one kingdom's dominion is an exceedingly rare occurrence.

However, as fierce and wild as Kimbanda is, there are thankfully built in fail safes and balance points.

There is NO such "fail safe" inherent within the Goetic traditions. 

The daemons are NOT spirits of human deceased. None of them desire, require or will functionally accept elevation. You CANNOT elevate a goetic daemon. The goetic daemons care NOTHING about your own personal elevation. There is NO goetic daemon who will protect you from the casual influences of other goetic daemons and there is NO such thing as a goetic daemon "head master" or "met tet".

In terms of margin for error....Kimbanda is walking a tight rope but the Goetic tradition is walking a razor's edge... 

So where does one find elevation in the Goetic tradition? Does such a exist? 

Yes it does.

I have said this many times before but it bares repeating, goetic magic is astral magic, and astral magic is planetary magic with the moon as the planetary sphere... or yesod for the Hebraic. In order that magician does not imbalance his or herself either mentally, or spiritually; the magician must counter-balance the planetary work they are focused on with that planetary sphere's polar opposition.

Thereby when working with the Goetic tradtion (which is the Moon) the magician needs solid footing with the planetary sphere of the Sun, or Sol, also known in the Hebraic as Tipareth. It is in the Sun, we find the elevation, purification and inspiration which will uplift the spiritual goals, and brighten the mental faculties of a magician consorting with daemons in the darkly splendid gloom of the ever shifting astral world.

Daemons are amoral, they delight in participating in the "follies" of humanity. The dominion of a daemon is all consuming. The daemon cares not, nor occupies itself with any other concern, which does not relate to it's dominion. Due to the frequency and vibratory station daemons occupy (the lower astral) they tend towards the thoughts and desires of humanity which are appropriately deposited, gestated, and mutated upon the lower astral. These thoughts-desires are most frequently repressed, ashamed of, and concealed sexual fantasies, or phobias, s well as unfettered rage, alongside unrealized dreams.

Daemons know humanity near better than any other non-physical entity. Daemons are bathed in the most base and primal drivers behind our evolution. The dominions of a demon eternally steep in those same primordial juices of consciousness and for a magician that is both the blessing and the curse. The magician be absolutely honest about who they are and what they desire when in front of a goetic daemon. The goetic daemon couldn't care enough to pass judgement. However, in the face of elevated spirits (say spirits of the Solar sphere) many times the magician tries to dilute the reality of his or her soul out of guilt.

Elevated spirits already well know the uncensored truth of the magician, but because of their elevated station they are supremely compassionate, and let us lie to them.. as they know we cannot lie ourselves and never could we lie to God. It is just a matter of time before we speak the truth aloud, by either word, deed or both, and the lesson can finally be implemented.

The daemons can help us to both reveal and revel in our vices. There is a lot to life that best happens in the dark. It is absolutely essential to the sanity of the collective human mind to have a shadowy playground to explore and experiment in. The devastating danger is when the human becomes mired in astral illusions, made an agent of a goetic daemon, and lead deeper into the ensuing depravity of its dominion.

The daemons have no boundaries. It is up to the magician and the magician alone to set his or her boundaries as well as vigilantly discern the amount of influence the daemon has over them.

The magician is the master of magic circle, this mastery is not shared with anything or anyone else. The goetic daemon, while a great ally and consultant, is never to be considered a friend. The magician must always have dominance over the daemon, but best to temper that dominance with due and proper respect to the goetic daemon; rather than the hard but brittle fist of a tyrant who will forever fear retribution from mistreated daemons. Goetic work is a path for only the strongest and most mature of occultists, or at the very least a magician who desires to forge great personal strength and power of will.

Within the spirituality of the Solar temple, or planetary sphere of the Sun, resides ultimate compassion and mercy. The earliest nods to Christianity flows from Tipareth. A divine figure willing to be a sacrifice, and willing to teach others the value of self-sacrifice. To pay the debts of others and lessen their burdens in the hopes that kindness would spread outward to encircle the world with unconditional mercy. The current state of Christianity aside, connection with the solar sphere is the only real lifeline the magician has in the goetic tradition, and it is only made available through the labors of the magician.

In defense of the esoteric brotherhoods and lodges of the 1300s to 1800s, Christianity was the only acceptable expression of solar planetary magic available in Europe. Near anything else meant imprisonment, torture, and or execution...and always after total financial confiscation by church and state.

"Immortal, Eternal, Ineffable, and Sacred Father of all things, who is carried on the chariot rolling without cease, of the worlds which rotate always. Ruler of the Etheric Plain where Your throne of power is exalted and from whose heights Thy formidable eyes discover everything and Your beautiful and saintly ears hear everything. Harken to Your children whom You have loved from their birth through all time. Since Your lasting, great, and eternal majesty shines brightly over the world and the starry heavens, Thou art raised above them. Oh, sparkling fire! There You light and maintain Yourself in the appropriate splendor. There comes forth from Your being never-failing streams of light which nourish Your infinite spirit. This infinite spirit generates all things and makes this inexhaustible treasure of matter which cannot fail to procreate that which always surrounds it because of the forms without number with which it is filled and with which You have filled it since the beginning of time. From this spirit the very saintly kings who are standing around Your throne and who compose Your court also draw their origin. Oh, Universal Father! Oh, Unique One! Oh, Father of blissful mortals and immortals! You have particularly created the powers which are marvelously like Your eternal thought and Your adorable essence. You have established them superior to the messengers who announce your wishes to the world. Finally, You have created us sovereigns over the elements. Our continued exertion is to praise You and to adore Your desires. We burn with the desire to be possessed of You. Oh, Father! Oh, Mother, the most tender of Mothers! Oh, admirable example of tender sentiments of Mothers! Oh, Son, the flower of all Sons! Oh, mold of all our shapes! Well beloved spirit, soul, harmony, and number of all things, we adore you."

This oration, adoration or exoneration is beautiful, uplifting and downright inspiring. Certainly not a groveling placation to the stiffing dictates of a misogynistic, hateful "god" Yahweh/Jehovah; but a brighter far more awesome creator God-force who nourishes life, loves his creations and seeks union rather than dominion over them. The passage even acknowledges a tender mother and son who is flower of all sons. We glimpse in this the kind of salvation and redemption which help elevate us up out of the lower astral.

These solar extolations are also types of personal and environmental purification, exorcisms and banishings.

"And when, after all the phantoms have vanished, thou shalt see that holy and formless fire, that fire which darts and flashes through the hidden depths of the Universe, hear thou the Voice of Fire".

This opening passage from the Opening By Watchtower ritual reflects the pale understanding modern Hermetic magic has in terms to planetary Exonerations.

The breakdown is this.

The light of the sun makes the astral night time phantoms/daemon vanish. Then once all the distortion is gone, one can more clearly see God or that hidden fire and hear better its messages to him or her.

The LBRP and BRP are decidedly modern banishment rituals, and while I utilize a variant of the LBRP I would never forgo the implementation of orations and incantations of Sol.

I will begin to share the orations, and incantations of Tipareth of the goetic tradition I inherited. I feel that what I have learned is a more pure transmission of both celestial and infernal energies in accordance to helping a magician finish their Great Work, removing the interfering emissaries of Yahweh/Jehovah, and the utter brainless idiocy behind the Devil/Satanic current tethered to modern Christianity.

I will also lay important foundation structure in how to preform goetic magic, one that provides both material and spiritual results, which are common in my temple.

In front of a lighted white candle used only for this purpose, speak aloud the above oration, and begin to bring the grandeur of the Sun into your life...if only in order to explore the depth of the sub-lunar astral and command with more force the daemons who reside there.
