MY FIRST GOETIC RITUAL
I performed this Ritual on Nov. 13th 1996. This was my first
experience in dealing with the LESSER KEY OF SOLOMON text. I
spent months preparing forthis Ritual (too much time really!)
and I had put it off several times due to feeling unprepared
plus a number of strange occurrences took place e.g.: the
seals turned up missing, family situations arose....I have
learned that this tends to be status quo when beginning
rituals of this nature. Now I don't know whether this is
some
kind of spiritual hazing, to weed out posers, or our own
psyche trying to avoid such practices (I'll let you decide)
but I will say strange things happen when working with this
system! This being my first Goetic work I followed the "Lesser
Key of Solomon" as closely as humanly possible. I crafted two
Seals of the Spirit, one on parchment and one on brass, I
scheduled the rite. on one of the most advantageous days
according to the text (when the moon is 2,4,6,8,10,12, or 14
days old), the incense I used was Dittany of Crete, which is
great for Spirit Manifestation, I used the appropriate 9ft
circle (without the Hebrew Names) and triangle. Within the
triangle was the copper seal of the spirit and the fire
censer. I started the Ritual itself at 10am beginning with the
Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram, followed by the
Banishing Rite. of the Hexagram....I then performed the Middle
Pillar along with the Bornless Ritual.
At this point I felt a lot of Energy surging through me and a
sense of extreme confidence and justification...I then began
reading the first
Conjuration (English Version) and I was half way through the
2nd reading when I felt a very strange sensation, it was if my
whole body was vibrating and my hair felt like it was standing
on end! It was then I looked up from the Ritual I was reading
and noticed the smoke that was coming out of the incense
burner was forming perfectly straight vertical pillar from
floor to ceiling. It was at this point I began to feel an
overwhelming sense of fear (being it was my first evocation)
and I totally lost control of the Ritual itself...At this
point a burst of fire shot out of the burner and all the
candles that were around the circle went out! I felt very
afraid at this point but I also sensed that the spiritual
presence had vacated the premises. I stood there for what
seemed like a great deal of time before I was able to summon
the courage to perform the banishing Ritual and clear the
temple. The Ritual ended at 11:44 am.
While I was breaking down the Temple I felt as if the Ritual
had been a complete failure! But latter while writing in my
journal, I felt an extreme sense of accomplishment...It was if
I had faced my fears and came out stronger for it! I also
realized how our senses can really be a hindrance in our
magical workings (this is why I began performing more
meditative exercises to gain more control in this area) and
how one needs to maintain the "mind magick link in his/her
operations!
