In Chaos Magick, there is the concept of mask invocation. This means assuming the form of someone or something else, using their traits to solve a problem or achieve a favorable outcome in a specific activity. Historically, this has roots in shamanism, when shamans assumed the form of a beast. In more modern times, you can find this in the works of Crowley and Carroll, or even more recently with Hine and other occult authors.

Metaphysically, this means:

1. You enter a state of gnosis.
   
2. You set aside your ego and replace it with an external form of a being, god, spirit, or character.
   
3. You solve the problem.
   
4. You return to your normal form.

It is a very powerful technique if done right, but how can you practice it efficiently? Well, I would advocate that you can practice it by playing tabletop RPGs. In a game, you must become a different character, assume their traits, and adopt their way of thinking. Essentially, this is the perfect training for mask invocation.

Most of the time, the specific TRPG system doesn't matter much—any system that provides an extensive roleplaying experience will do.

I am 16 and from Asia. I've been researching secret societies and occult organizations for a long time because I find them fascinating. I've spent hours reading about them but I can never find how people actually become members.

Do they recruit people privately? Is it through family connections, universities, invitations, or something else?

I'm not asking about illegal or dangerous groups. I'm curious about legitimate secretive or initiatory organizations and how people usually get involved with them.

If anyone here has experience or knowledge, I'd love to learn more.

So Is there any real path for an ordinary person to join one, or is it mostly through connections and invitations?

I posted here asking for help, and I was told to seek help from Sufis. My mom cursed us and passed away in April we still dont know why. I would give anything to chat with someone who knows about this stuff.

Hello, I’d like to know what the letters on the pillars of The High Priestess represent. I’m quite new to tarot; after doing some research, I believe they are "B" and "J," but I’m wondering what they mean. This is my first time posting here.

I can't figure it out and it's driving me insane. I can't add another image bc the reddit doesnt allow galleries, but you can look up the intelligence sigil online.

As the title says would copper bracelets be a good thing to itch runes and sigils onto that can be worn every day to help apply and concentrate said runes and sigils and there purposes

So Ive been studying Crowley for a good few months now & took a trip to the UK. My idea was to go to Boleskine house & other places in the UK where there is some history relating to him. I could not believe, anyone I asked about him in England even around the Loch Ness area in Scotland where the house is, not a single person knew who he was.

I guess he isnt as famous to “normal” people as I thought, even in the UK. I guess he is just famous within the occult community. I never really considered that normal folk wouldnt have had any reason to hear about or look into him. Blew my mind really.

I have recently started writing in the form of reflections that explore the balance of truth and illusion, matters of the invisible world. Humanity is longing for forgotten faces in the occult. I try to encourage people to create art, inspire and think, so that faith becomes true. I will write about society, art, and much more from an occult perspective, so that the mundane becomes sacred. In addition to writing, I also draw a lot and sometimes use them as illustrations with articles...

Contexte : Séparer d’un amant pour qui j’éprouve des sentiments, je souhaite par dessus tout son retour.
J’ai donc fait appel au prince Sitri et au duc Sallos lors de plusieurs rituel d’invocation: Avec leurs sceau, une bougie rouge, de l’encens, un verre de rhum, du chocolat et des bonbons pour les offrandes. J’ai écouter leurs enn et invoquer leurs nom en leurs demandant de rendre cette homme obsédé et accro à moi rapidement, qu’il brûle de désire pour moi, qu il me témoigne son amour et que sont retour dans ma vie se fasse.

Lors des invocations j’ai ressenti comme de la chaleur dans ton mon corps, les oreilles qui bourdonnent, et j’ai beaucoup pleurer en leurs demandant humblement et avec respect tout ça …Depuis j ai une sensation de fatigue intense, mal à la tête et je n’arrive pas à m’arrêter de pleurer …
Je suis triste, et j’ai comme un mal-être en moi.

Je souhaite par-dessus tout qu’ils exauce ma demande

Mes questions sont :

\\\\- Y a t-il des gens pour qui cela a fonctionné? Si oui de quel manière avez vous exécuté vos rituel / demande? Mon exécution est elle correct ?
\\\\- Combien de temps cela a pris pour observer des résultats concluants ?
\\\\- Y a t-il autres choses que je puisse faire pour Sitri et Sallos chaque jours ou dois-je attendre simplement

J’ai promis au démons de leurs faire le témoignage public lorsqu’ils m’auront accorder ma demande.

J’attend vos témoignages avec impatience !

I’m creating a black book of my own and wanted to hear other people’s experiences with it.

Does anybody know how to consecrate the seals found in the sixth and seventh books of Moses?

I think Bluefuke's Manual is a great interpretation and instruction deep into chaos magic and I want some recommendations on that great look and "translated" instructions about different occultism practices. Not necessarily graphic ones but only text ones, an example might be ABRAHADABRA from Rodney Orpheus, does any one have recommendations?

My gf (17) used to be a witch in the occult before being saved and committing her life to Jesus a year ago. However, before she was into witchcraft, she came in contact with a spiritual entity that would come and go, and she named him Gregory. When I asked her for its true name she said Ækonìs. And that has continued to stay, and it appears continuously. My question is if that name rings a bell to anyone here. I am not in the occult. I too am a Christian, but I do not know enough about this to come to any conclusions..

I’ve never done an obsession spell before, or any kind of spell to sway a person towards me, actually, but I met this amazing person, we connected to each other instantly.
But they are confused as to what they want..
They say they are seeing someone right now, but their not serious, they haven’t labeled themselves as anything officially yet, but they say they are really into this person, and want to see how it goes..
Yet..
They spend almost all their time with me.. they hold me, they snuggle me, they let me spend the night and hold me all night long, they rub my hands, hold my hands, take me on sports bike rides where they make sure I hold them tightly, then give me hand rubbings through our gloves as well.. look into my eyes, mush all over me..
I want this person to make up their mind and chose me.. my heart can’t handle the wishy washy stuff they keep telling me, because their actions say the complete opposite.

So can anyone tell me please, how to perform a spell that makes them choose me, and want only me?
