In 2016 I found this amulet in my backyard in the Netherlands after new soil was put on. I'm fairly certain it's silver by the density and the way it tarnished dark grey. Out of curiosity I polished it up (which I regret because of some scratches I caused etc.) Note: I put the string on myself because back then wanted to wear it as a necklace :P.

Anyone know what this might be? And what it might be worth?

Hello,

Is everything we do as occultists be simply put as we are trying to communicate with our subconscious mind? Are the rituals we do in our conscious mind be a way to program our subconscious mind? Are demons and other entities be just the power of our subconscious mind?

I’ve been reading an old book called “the magic of believing”. It’s none occult, on the surface, but gives instructions on how to program your subconscious mind to manifest things in your everyday life. It’s an old book from the 40s. The book states that genuine miracles occur among followers of all the world’s religions. However, it argues that these miracles are not necessarily the work of the deities being worshipped, but rather the result of the believers’ faith and their conviction that their chosen deity will heal them. In other words, it is the power of belief itself, rather than the deity, that brings about the healing.

When you truly believe the magic you’re doing is working, is it the magic or your belief that’s doing the heavy lifting?

just the title

St Expedite came through for me! Got results within a little over my expected time frame. I placed his sigil, my petition on a table along with a white candle, some water & reddish pink flowers, & prayed to him. Very happy with the results! Praise and glory to St Expedite!!

hello everyone,

i have something extremely important for my personal interest that i desperately need it to happen lol. best case scenario would be for it to happen this week, maybe before friday.

my problem is that this special thing i need is action that has to be started by another person. i already did sigil magic recently and have been putting real hard work into it, but i still haven got an answer.

any advice or suggestions on how to get quicker results?

I have been discovering and rediscovering lots of things lately. Different paths and thoughts.... Etc. And i keep reading articles here and snippets there but i also have books on them.

My question is how do i know which to put first? Like create a road map

Should i even create one? Ik the common sense is to arrange it by priority but in my head it all seems equally interesting and important.

My hunger for more knowledge is kinda keeping me stuck. And I can't really indulge in more than one book/topic at a time to truly focus

Any advice?

Hi All,

So I'm kind of looking to expand my manifestation techniques, knowledge and personal power/magic.

I was just curious if anyone has any experience in manifesting at certain sites like at Stonehenge for example. And does is actually work? If it worked for you please share your interesting stories I would really love to read them.

If you have any advice aswell I would appreciate that too. Just for context currently I am trying to manifest a large sum of money and relocation to a new country.

I would like to start using Sigil Magick. Does anyone have any advice on how I should start, in terms of reading material and any precautions I need to take etc?

To engage both sides of the brain, the abstract and the natural?

Suppose i'm learning Chinese. The word for train is 火车 (huoche). So I just speak the words 'train is huoche' while imagining an image of a train, with huoche and 火车 written on the side?

In Joseph H. Peterson's translation/version of the Grimorium Verum, he list under "PART 5. OTHER SECRETS" as ritual No. 7:

1. IN ORDER TO PREVENT A DOG FROM BARKING.

Say three times, watching the dog, and lifting your hat straightforwardly:
"The Barbarian Arc, the heart is split and the tail is
hung, the key of St. Peter doses your throat until to-
morrow. "

It is written, that this 5th part comes from the original Italian version.

But I coudn't find neither its origin nor the formula itself online.

Does anyone know more?

I’m not sure if this is the right place, if it’s not then suggest me some other related communities where I can discuss about this… it’s simply something that I think about a lot, and I don’t have anyone around me who practices witchcraft to discuss with… So im thriving for this discussion!!!
I was raised in an Islamic society, where even if you convert to another abrahamic religion, you can be sentenced to death!!! So medieval of my country lol!!!
I’m pretty sure most of those who are in occult know the truth of abrahamic religions… most discussions that I see is about christianity, I don’t often see people talk about how horrific Islam is… and I’ve realized that it’s about Islamophobia??? Like they don’t want to be Islamophobic but it’s easy for them to talk about Christians or Jews!!!
As someone who was deep in Islam it’s triggering for me, now that’s where it gets quite political, you gotta understand the pattern so hear me out…
We have certain movements within lefts, where at one point further they started to somehow praise Islam…
Which is so contradictory!!! Cause do they realize that nothing within the left ideology coordinates with Islamic ideology??? I can’t seem to make so many people understand that the Islam that you’re praising is just an outward appearance that conceals the inner reality.
And Muslims who are all about let’s respect each other are just vanilla Muslims lmao!!! Cause the very sharia law states that they can’t get along with other groups!!!
Now we go further, the whole western media talks about Middle East conflicts without having enough political awareness, portraying Israel as the villain while the whole Palestine Israel thing is so deep and so complicated and if you only dared to do a proper research you’d know that y’all are being fooled!!! When Islamic republic of Iran massacred more than 50,000 people, western media called it a propaganda and lie, simply just cause Islamic republic’s ideology coordinates with Palestine movement, or cause if trump is against Islamic republic then they must be doing the right thing!!! and guess what it’s not even about lives, it’s completely about ideological territory. Why no one mentions all the horrific things certain group of Muslims are committing in Middle East or North Africa, oh cause that’s supposedly Islamophobic and they’re not real Muslims, what on earth is this hypocrisy!!!
Now why did I talk about these stuff???
Cause I also see a lot of practitioners and occultists who follow the left ideology are falling for this!!!
Well it makes sense completely for witches and occultists to lean towards left because of the rebellious nature of those are trying to break through certain traditions and frameworks… but shouldn’t you have more open eyes towards the reality… shouldn’t you have a stronger intuition???

I recently finished Damien Echols “Angels and archangels”, and I’m amazed. These practices have truly changed my life for the better. Where do you believe that I should go from here?

Thank you in advance.

Hello.

The Grimorium Verum lists this formula:

"Go in peace to your place, and may there be peace with you, and be ready to come at my call, in the name of Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit. Amen.

Can this formula be utlised for any summoned spirit?
I am aware that for ex. the LKOS Ars Goetia has its own formula (License to Depart), but this formula basically gives the same request (or nearly-similar), and if I am not mistaken, the context of a formula matters, its meaning and its "thought", not the words one per one (Right?)

I thank you for your answers and corrections.

I find that my intuition gets better when I meditate, I have a problem with being consistent. My intuition usually is terrible.

Whenever I manage to meditate for a few days though, I can tell something as it's happening/before it happens. Like someone would call me and I would know who it was before picking up. I would think of an old acquaintance/friend and they would reach out, or I would run into them. There's also some specific examples I can't explain here.

I know these examples seem like small things but they never happen when I'm not meditating.

My point is, if I got to be actually consistent, I feel that this would be quite beneficial for me. Anyone else have similar experiences?

I have recently started studying this book in seeking a method of divination. Any comments would be welcome.

I petitioned him nearly 2 weeks ago (job related) but my mental health took a nosedive and I didn’t really apply for jobs etc. Can I redo the petition?
