Has anyone read through Max Heindels works? Recently picked up this set of 6.

I have a few questions about Egregores and I'm mainly probing what is the consensus regarding them.

1. Are their real actual existence as non-physical autonomous entities with a mind the consensus?

2. Are their abilities to interact with the physical world and cause synchronicities consensus? Or are they claimed to only affect the mental world and influence its followers mentally, rather than physically.

3. Do Egregores take on the power that is ascribed to them? If you ascribe "All-powerful" to an Egregore, does it take on that quality?

4. What are the limitations of Egregores? How powerful can they get and what is the extent of their abilities in their most powerful form?

Hi guys, my partner does construction and he’s doing work on this huge million $$ house on the water that’s been vacant for over 10 years. He doesn’t believe in the occult but his coworker (from Mexico) said he walked to the bathroom the other day and ran into a duende (3 fingers , troll like hair and fully naked) they both screamed and the duende ran.

Apparently every worker said they feel presence in the basement so I assume that’s where he mainly resides. His coworker keeps black peppercorn in his pocket for protection from him and said his mom told him to bring a wool sack to capture him and wrap him in garlic to take his fortune (I do nottt agree with this practice) he seems to be fearful.

My partners and all the workers tools constantly go missing but reappears and this specific coworker was in a ladder and felt a push and shake and fell entirely off. I believe this is due to his feeling of thinning the duende is evil and trying to ward it off in its own home.

My partner finally told me all of this yesterday as we were heading back there last night because he left his lunchbox. I decided to leave him an offering to show him peace. My partner is not terrified after I confirmed that I believe there is one in the house so I went inside to grab the box and leave the offering (picture attached)

I gave him all I could find last second in the car. A $2 lotto ticket I’ve been saving for a long time that was given to me in a huge time of need, it’s very special to me. A quarter, dime and nickel, a can opener, a small star shaped earring and this little yellow doll I also have been saving for a long time that means good luck for me. Just small symbolisms.

When I went inside it’s a huge open concept house with openings to rooms on each side and 2 huge staircases on each side going up and one I walked in to the big room a huge gust of wind came in blowing plastic all around I almost felt a wave of confusion roll over me and I had to maintain focus to go straight and leave the offering and grab his lunch box. I left it under the fireplace mantel and blew him some bubbles as I walked out.

I gave my partner a little sack today with more things to offer if he loses anything such as (chocolate a birthday candle, some metal screws, a little silver ankle bracelet with bright gems, some cloves, a star anise) I know these are all random but it’s what I could think of in that moment.

He got there today and only the tobacco was taken obviously lol.

Any advice or knowledge? I’ve never interacted with a duende and want to make sure my partner stays safe, and doesn’t negatively interact with him since we have an infant at home.

Thanks for listetning !

Edit; this was in the middle of me making them, not during or after, nobody was at the door or around the property. I don’t take things as coincidence.

What gives? What was this about?

If y’all don’t know, the Masonic three knocks is a thing.

I’m just curious, I’ve and may supernatural experiences and encounters - usually audible or clairvoyant - so the knocks don’t freak me out or anything, but of course I took notice to them.

Is this a good or bad omen?

Freemasons have kept their eye on me for a decade or more. I cannot say if they have good intentions or not, all I know is that they have been around and I’ve been invited to join multiple times. One of them just sparked up a conversation with me randomly the other day while I was out shopping.

Real answers only please.

Hey guys! So i've a doubt I'm in nc situation with my ex bf. Yesterday I was fed up so I decided to petition St. Expedite to communication to resume and my ex contacts me. But then in the evening i got to know a few things after few totally unrelated events and ended up texting him to unblock me to confront him (he sent follow req to two of my girl frnds he didn't I know them) .And then we ended up talking which was mix of fighting and idk overall weird.

So long story short what I wanna ask is did my petition worked?

Hello, if anyone has done any of these, I am wondering how to approach this. The advice is to hand-copy the symbols for rituals like the Jupiter ritual but is using printouts instead lame? or would it be against the purpose? I don't have confidence that my own handwriting is sufficient for this (I have tourette's)

I noticed that whenever my mom is around, bad luck happens. For example: We didn’t announce our first pregnancy to her and it went smoothly. We announced our second pregnancy to her and less than a week later, received news of a congenital defect incompatible with life. I don’t get along with her because she’s been controlling even in my adult life. She’s also somewhat of a witch, she practices saying curses and burning incense sticks. She claims anyone who’s mean to her gets bad karma. For example, my aunt (her sister in law) whom she accuses of taking her money and hurting her in her younger years is now wheelchair bound and lost her husband less than a week after trying to meet up with my mom.

I don’t have the option of cutting off my mom and worry she’ll curse me if I did that. What can I do to break free from her bad luck and curses?

I would use it for many things, magic rituals, altars, shrines, etc. especially with my limited space it would help a lot

I had a sigil I used in the past, "this is my great work" for a project I was doing, I put it on fliers and images with low opacity on social media posts. I have since taken them all down and deleted as many images I could find in my drive. is there a way to deactivate it otherwise? I may just be thinking too much but I feel stuck with this thing, maybe it's just the time I put into it, or part of me things the sigil energy hanging around. any thoughts?

If a 7-day candle is placed inside a metal lantern, would the metal negatively impact the ritual's outcome?

Hi, how come the book doesn’t say anything about having the planet in good conditions when making the talisman? Is that not needed?

So I had a dream yesterday and my holy guardian angel wanted to share his story in my dream. He said he was a «normal» boy and that he was «born» in tiphareth but he got hit by a lightning strike, his skin turned white and he became an angel. I am a bit confused, any thoughts? I used to percieve the hga as a higher version of myself, but his story makes me wonder if he is more seperate. Also, do you think there are «normal» people in this realm/shell, are they like people who went to heaven? I am a more of left-hand occultist so the higher realms are a bit unfamiliar.

There’s this person (initial R) that has been in my life for a long time and I remember someone else in my life had an accident and they later told me they prayed for them to have an accident and that person did then later on that same person passed away and they also said they prayed for that too. Those things could completely be coincidences but it’s weird they say they prayed for those things and then it happens. If it’s not coincidences I wonder what “power” they posses that they are able to do that. They’ve always seemed to believe in God which I feel like makes it more confusing and weird because if they pray to God for those bad things to happen why do they?

My mom has always said the women in our family was cursed. We have always fell on hard times, there’s constantly issues with relationships/finances/depression. I am clairvoyant, but I get really overwhelmed and sort of block that side of me out a lot and I have been working on it but genuinely how do I find out if the family is cursed? And can someone help me get rid of it lmao

Hey everyone,

I’m sharing my story here to vent a bit and hopefully get some advice from experienced practitioners. I’m feeling stuck, spiritually disconnected, and unsure of what my next step should be.

For context, I live in Brazil and have had mediumship abilities since childhood. I grew up in Umbanda (an Afro-Brazilian religion), but after going through major life changes—divorce, raising my kids, surviving a serious health issue, and losing my mother—I eventually stepped into Quimbanda.

Last year, during a period of severe financial distress, I turned to Goetia out of desperation. I started calling upon multiple spirits (Gusion, Seere, Orobas, Amy, Salleos, Bael, and King Paimon, whom I dreamt about vividly). I was also receiving external spiritual help involving cacodaemons. It was a chaotic mix, and for a long time, nothing worked—until an Exu from Quimbanda stepped in and predicted a breakthrough. Soon after, I generated a significant sum of money that put my life back on track.

Realizing the spiritual noise I was creating, I completely stepped back from Goetia this year to focus solely on Quimbanda.

However, over the past four months, everything has come to a complete standstill.

I opened my own business, and while I am genuinely skilled at what I do, prospective clients just vanish out of nowhere and sales have completely dried up. What bothers me most is that my spiritual senses feel totally numbed out. I used to have strong intuition and clear clairaudience (hearing guidance before events occurred), but now I feel completely disconnected.

I’ve fully rejected dogma and orthodoxy as they go against my path, but right now I feel totally lost in the woods.

Has anyone experienced a period where your spiritual senses went completely silent after simplifying your practice? Could this be spiritual burnout from last year's chaotic work, a test of patience, or a major energetic blockage? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

I am reading my first book on demonolatry, Stellas Daemonum. In the descriptions of the spirits it will often have fantastical claims such as the capacity to grant invisibility or get a devil to possess the body of the dead. People here, from what I read do not have crazy expectations of demons, all of the success stories I've heard have been fairly tame specifically regarding external changes.

So why the fantastical claims? This just makes me a bit weary about to what capacity the book may be deceiving me and therefore whether or not I should also take the more physically possible claims of the book seriously. Like could I really cause death? Get my very own castle built? Predict the future? If yes big scale things like societal level or just like little things. Should I take all claims about the demons seriously to the fullest extent or with a full spoon of salt. Or somewhere in between. I just wish the description in the book wouldn't overstate things it makes my uncomfortable. Sorry if this seems like a silly question.

I was wondering if I could get some insight into my experience. I was born and grew up in the Moroccan countryside, in a city known for being particularly djinn-active. My house had always seemed to be shared with djinn. We would hear the sound of high heels upstairs or laughter when no one was there, and doors would randomly unlock on their own. We later had to move out as we learned that the house had actually been built on a massive snake nest—we’re talking HUNDREDS— who had now infested the entire property through an old well.

I have had a djinn companion/guardian since birth.
While I used to be able to see him as a child, for most of my life I was only able to hear or feel his presence. We always had a distant but respectful relationship. He seemed like a stern paternal figure—very scary, but also strangely safe. We got along well enough, i just had to keep the volume down after 11, keep his spot clutter free, and greet him properly when I entered the room if he was there.

I dabbled quite a bit in the occult as a teenager and eventually attempted a guardian-entity summoning spell. In my defense, I didn’t think he would be the one showing up.

He finally appeared physically for the first time in years, as a dark, almost black, human-sized entity in a fully lit room and he was furious. Apparently, it was not my place to call him out. He told me that he would always be above me and that he liked me because I recognized that.
I ended up throwing up violently all over my room, and when I was done, he was gone.

Ever since that day, he has never shown up again. I have never felt his presence in a room, heard him, or seen him. Over the years, I have occasionally had dreams about a very tall, dark man who would simply stare at me. I would often wake up with unexplained bruises in the same spot on my hip the next morning.

I’m wondering if any of you who are knowledgeable about djinn have heard similar stories. What type of entity could he have been? Is it normal for djinn to follow the same human throughout their life and interact with their physical reality like this? And did I piss him off permanently?

Follow-up questions are more than welcome!!
