🌒 Waxing Moon in Cancer → Full Moon in Capricorn: Journeying with Jupiter's Mercy

As we move out of the quiet stillness of the New Moon in Cancer and into the first breath of the waxing phase, we enter sacred ground—an alchemical window for healing, intention, and long-range transformation. This lunar cycle will peak in a Full Moon in Capricorn on July 10th, a moment full of structure, sovereignty, and spiritual anchoring.

Capricorn, ruled by Saturn, governs time, responsibility, and legacy. But during this cycle, we’re also held in the warm, expansive gaze of Jupiter—the planet of growth, health, and divine mercy. When the two dance like this—Saturn and Jupiter—we have the chance to slow time through intention, and to plant seeds for long-term well-being, vitality, and spiritual expansion.

🌿 The Ritual Oil of Health, Youth & Strength

To honor the rising moon and align with Jupiter’s benevolence, we’ve created a ritual anointing oil designed to work with the energy of health, longevity, and rejuvenation. This oil is safe for both body and face and includes essential oils of:

✅ Final Jupiter–Aligned Facial Oil Blend (30 ml / 1 oz carrier)

🌹 3 drops Rose – Venus (skin, love, vitality)

🌿 3 drops Hyssop – Jupiter (cleansing, healing, spiritual expansion)

🌲 3 drops Frankincense – Solar/Jupiter crossover (rejuvenation, higher consciousness)

🌸 2 drops Geranium or lavender(optional but great for balance and scent harmony)

= 11 drops total → 1.8% dilution, perfect for facial use + energetic potency

> If you want a lighter scent or more sensitive formula, reduce hyssop to 2 drops and go up to 4 drops of rose.

---

🧴 Carrier oil ideas:

Use one or a combo of:

Jojoba (best for face; mimics skin’s oils)

Sweet almond (nourishing, light)

Grapeseed (non-comedogenic and high in antioxidants)

---

✨ Ritual Use Suggestion

Anoint your third eye and heart chakra with a tiny amount.

Breathe in the scent while visualizing Jupiter’s light filling your body.

Recite:

> “By the waters of Hyssop, may I be cleansed.

By the mercy of Sachiel, may I expand in health.

By rose and frankincense, may this flesh be made holy and long-lived.”

Each oil is consecrated with short invocations to awaken their spiritual function, and the whole blend is activated daily with the mantra:"I am young again. I feel so healthy and vital and strong."

This is not simply about reversing aging—it’s about reclaiming power from time and choosing vibrancy, sovereignty, and strength.

🔥 Sacred Incense: The Soil of a Living Spell

Alongside the oil, we’ve begun crafting a sacred incense blend that will evolve over the year. This current phase is just the beginning—a foundational “soil” into which later sacred ingredients will be planted when the time is right.

So far, our incense blend includes:Cedar – Jupiter-ruled, cleansing, protective, and temple-purifying

Storax – resin of sweetness, memory, and ritual depth

Agarwood (Lignum Aloes) – highly prized, spiritually expanding, linked to divine breath

Powdered Lapis Lazuli – stone of Jupiter, wisdom, and vision

These ingredients are blessed one by one as they are added, each with its own prayer. Future additions will include mountain ash (Rowan), fig wood, and the ashes of sacred words written in ritual ink. This incense is not just a recipe—it is a living, breathing spell that will reach its fullness when Jupiter enters Leo next year, when the soil becomes flame.

🌕 Will You Journey With Us?

This moon phase is a time of gentle growth, of laying groundwork for deeper transformation. If you’d like to walk this lunar cycle with us, here’s how you can begin:Choose one small health or self-care intention to build upon each day.

Work with Jupiterian energies—speak your goals out loud, anoint your body with care, make space for joy and mercy.

Watch the moon each night—let it guide your pace.

Speak affirmations of life and strength daily.

If you’re crafting your own oils, blends, or rituals this cycle, I’d love to hear about them. Let’s grow together. 🌿🔥🌕

Blessings to all who read this. May your path be steady, and your heart be filled with life.

-Ezekiel the Mad

Cassiel — Sentinel of Time, Karma, and Saturn

Binah’s dominion is not merely cosmic form—it is time itself, shaped and measured by Divine Observation. As the angel of Saturn, Cassiel embodies this aspect of Binah through patience, karmic balance, and the slow, inevitable turning of celestial wheels.

---

📜 Cassiel in Occult Sources

The Heptameron (Pietro d’Abano) identifies Cassiel—sometimes called Caphriel—as “chief ruler of the seventh day… by his holy seal,” invoked specifically in planetary magic for Saturn’s energies  . This clearly positions him as an active participant in working with Saturnial forces.

Meanwhile, the Key of Solomon’s Pentacles of Saturn invoke broader Saturnian spirits through consecrated talismans:

Third Pentacle (used at night): inscribed with divine characters and names such as Omeliel, Anachiel, Arauchiah, Anazachia—protective intelligences of Saturn  .

Fourth Pentacle: “serveth principally for experiments of ruin, destruction and death,” and for messenger spirits from the South  .

Fifth Pentacle defends invokers and “chases away spirits which guard treasures”  .

These rituals reveal that Saturn’s agents—including Cassiel—do intervene in the material plane: enforcing boundaries, protecting wealth, and enabling lasting transformation. Their method is not immediate eruption, but deliberate, structural influence.

⏳ Cassiel’s Qualities in Practice

From these sources and Saturnian symbolism, we can outline Cassiel’s key attributes:

1. Karma & Consequence: Each Pentacle addresses the karmic web—chasing away negative spiritual guardians or laying down protection. Cassiel moves through structured law and consequence, not whim  .

2. Patience & Perseverance: Saturnian work demands time. You invoke Cassiel not for rapid results, but slow, cumulative change—endurance, stability, and mastery over self.

3. Guardian of Time & Death: In Jewish mysticism, Cassiel features as guardian of the threshold between worlds—associated with endings and transitions. He is an angel of solitude, tears, and passage  .

4. Material Manifestation: The Pentacles demonstrate that he can clear the energetic path to treasure—guarding treasure or removing what blocks it  .

---

🎯 Cassiel: Active, Not Passive

This all confirms what we’ve long suspected: Cassiel is not a quiet observer. He acts—but in Saturn’s characteristic rhythms rather than Chokhmah’s flash or Malkuth’s physical immediacy. His realm is slow consequence, structural initiation, and karmic rebalancing.

---

🧩 Connecting to Binah

Binah, Time, and Observation: If time requires awareness to exist, Cassiel is the vessel of that slow unfolding.

Karmic Chamber: As souls ascend and descend Jacob’s Ladder, Cassiel stands as the sentinel of completion, overseeing the return journey to the source.

Divinatory Architect: While not yet deeply explored in this chapter, the pattern-detecting aspect of Saturn (and agents like Paschar or possibly even Clauneck!) suggests a deeper role in prophecy and structural foresight.

⏳ In Summary

Systems of time, structure, and karmic calculus converge in Cassiel. He is not remote—he is resolute.

He does not rush, but moves on his own decree. He neither soothes nor abandons; he educates by delay, by steadfast presence, by karmic consequence.

🌿 The Path of Healing: Jupiterian Practices for Vitality and Longevity

Last week, we talked about The Waiting Room of the Moon—a time to heal, release, and recover under the waning Moon in Cancer. That post was shared directly from my Patreon as a public offering, so if you were hesitant to click the link before, go back and open it—it’s free to read, and it contains a ritual that many people have found deeply helpful during this liminal space between cycles.

This week, I’m offering something new: healing practices for the body and spirit, to be integrated gently throughout the week under the influence of Jupiter.

These practices weren’t created randomly—they’re part of my own Jupiterian workings in preparation for a talismanic operation using the Greater Key of Solomon, focused on health and longevity. If you’ve been following me and practicing alongside me, you know that we recently passed through a Mars trial—a time of intense pressure and confrontation, which for many of us brought pain, disruption, or illness.

But Mars initiates what Jupiter blesses.

And while Jupiter may not be at the center of this current waning Moon phase, his influence is a powerful ally in healing, restoration, and renewal. These exercises were born from that understanding—and are offered to you now if you feel called to participate.

Let this be a way to gently align yourself with Jupiter’s current—to call on divine mercy, expansion, and vitality, even in stillness.

---

🌬️ BREATHING FOR LONGEVITY

“Breath is the bridge between spirit and flesh.”

Jupiter governs expansion. This breathwork gently stimulates healing, cellular restoration, and inner calm.

✴️ Morning Expansion Practice (5 min)

Sit or lie down comfortably.

Inhale for a count of 4

Hold for 7

Exhale slowly for 8

Repeat 7–10 cycles

Focus on the phrase:

> “I inhale vitality. I exhale decay.”

Do this upon waking or before bed to activate the parasympathetic nervous system and release tension.

---

🧘 PASSIVE YOGA STRETCHES FOR RESTORATION

These stretches open the body without pressure—Jupiter supports long, sustained openness, not force. They’re easy on injured bodies, and you can do them in bed, on the floor, or in sacred space.

✴️ Three Restorative Poses

1. Supported Reclining Bound Angle Pose (Supta Baddha Konasana)

– Opens hips, heart, and lower body meridians connected to fertility, flow, and emotional release.

2. Legs Up the Wall (Viparita Karani)

– Calms adrenal glands, restores nervous system, enhances circulation to the brain and organs.

3. Seated Forward Fold with Bolster (Paschimottanasana)

– Promotes surrender and introspection, stimulates digestion, supports kidney and liver health.

Hold each pose for 3–7 minutes, breathing slow and deep. Jupiter prefers long-term consistency over short bursts of force.

Optional: Play Jupiter planetary tones (183.58 Hz) while stretching.

---

🥬 HIGH-VIBRATION FOODS FOR LONG LIFE

Jupiter is abundance, nourishment, and the wisdom of the Earth. Foods aligned with Jupiter’s essence support longevity, inner clarity, and life-force restoration.

✴️ Focus on:

Blue & Purple Fruits (blueberries, black grapes, elderberries):

Rich in antioxidants; support memory, blood, and longevity.

Leafy Greens (dandelion, kale, spinach):

Jupiter-ruled plants; cleanse the blood and strengthen vital organs.

Seeds & Sprouts (sunflower, flax, mung beans):

Contain life-potential; pranic energy for regeneration.

Fermented Foods (sauerkraut, kimchi, kefir):

Gut flora = immune strength = long life. Jupiter governs fermentation and benevolent growth.

---

💧 SPRING OR SOLAR-CHARGED WATER

Place a glass of spring or purified water in direct morning Sun for 30 minutes. You may add a pinch of sea salt or trace minerals.

As you lift the glass, say:

> “May this water carry the light of health and mercy into my cells.”

Drink it mindfully. Let the act itself be a small act of Jupiterian magick.

---

✴️ Suggested Daily Integration Flow

Time Practice

Morning 4-7-8 Breathing + Spring/Solar-Charged Water

Midday Light Jupiterian meal (greens + berries) + Legs Up the Wall

Evening Passive Yoga + Tea of Dandelion or Lemon Balm

Before Sleep Whisper: “I choose long life and joyful light.”

---

☉ Tea Suggestions

Jupiter governs plants of expansion, digestion, and blood purification.

Dandelion Root: Liver health, longevity, purification

Lemon Balm: Calm nerves, uplift mood, expand spirit

Fennel or Anise: Digestive fire, immune function, circulation

---

If you’re walking this path with me—through restoration, resilience, and spiritual sovereignty—these simple practices can anchor your body in the same light your spirit is reaching toward.

If you want more of this, or deeper Jupiterian workings, you’ll find them unfolding through my Patreon and other channels soon. For now: breathe, stretch, eat, and rest.

You’ve already made it through the fire. Now take in the light.

·"The Waiting Room of the Moon: A Ritual for Healing After the Fire"

🜃 What We Just Endured: The Fire, the Fog, and the Need to Rest

The last lunar cycle has not been easy—and if you're feeling bruised, scattered, exhausted, or raw, you're not alone.

We’ve just emerged from a waxing Moon that began under Mars in Sagittarius, a transit that pushed many of us into action—sometimes prematurely, sometimes forcefully. Mars wanted movement. Sagittarius wanted meaning. But not all of us were ready. For many, this combination ignited conflict, overextension, or crisis, physically and emotionally.

For some, it led to injuries, surgeries, or accidents.

For others, it brought overwhelm, restlessness, or burnout.

And threading through it all: the approaching square between Neptune and Saturn—a slow, grinding tension between dream and discipline, faith and fear, idealism and reality. This is a transit that dissolves what is false but can leave us feeling lost, confused, or disoriented in the process.

🪨 Saturn in Pisces (ruled by Neptune):

Says, “Build something real—out of what you can’t quite grasp.”

🌊 Neptune in Aries (ruled by Mars):

Says, “Charge into the unknown—but with a blindfold on.”

This square challenges our very foundation. It makes us question if our structures are real or illusion—and at the same time, it robs us of the energy to rebuild just yet. It’s psychic fatigue. Soul-churn. The in-between.

🌑 The New Moon in Cancer: A Healing Threshold

Now, as we approach the New Moon in Cancer on June 25, the energies shift dramatically. The Moon returns to her home sign, where emotional truth and sacred stillness rule.

Cancer doesn’t want progress.

Cancer wants comfort.

She wants safety, gentleness, recovery.

This New Moon marks the beginning of a sacred waiting room—a space between worlds where nothing needs to be fixed, solved, or accomplished. Just felt. Released. Integrated.

If you’ve been forced to slow down... it’s because the cosmos demanded it.

If you’ve found yourself needing to stop... it’s because your spirit required it.

Now is the time to rest.

The following ritual is for those who are weary.

For those recovering.

For those who feel suspended between what was and what’s to come.

🜄 The Waiting Room of the Moon: A Call to Rest and Heal

As the Moon wanes and prepares to renew herself in the tender sign of Cancer on Wednesday, June 25, we are all being called—gently but unmistakably—into the sanctuary of stillness.

This is not a time for pushing forward.

This is not a time for building or banishing.

This is a time for being.

Whether you’ve just endured illness, emotional trials, physical trauma, or simply the exhaustion of holding too much for too long, this waning phase is your invitation to release, retreat, and recalibrate. The Moon is in her darkest hours—and so we are being drawn inward, not to avoid life, but to digest it.

Let the healing begin here.

---

🪷 A Simple Ritual for the Waning Moon

You will need:

A glass of cool water

A pinch of salt

A candle (white, silver, or blue)

Optional: mugwort, myrrh, or cedar incense

Ritual Steps (done at night, or in the hour of the Moon):

1. Light your candle. Whisper:

“I enter the waiting room of the Moon. I am safe here.”

2. Hold the glass of water. Say:

“I surrender my pain to the waters. What I cannot hold, I release.”

3. Place a pinch of salt on your tongue, or into the water. Say:

“I preserve my strength in silence. I heal in stillness.”

4. Breathe in incense smoke or stillness. Say:

“I breathe in the spirit of healing. I trust what is unseen.”

5. Sit in silence. Listen. Rest.

This is a rite of non-action, of unwinding. You are not broken. You are becoming whole.

---

🌙 This Moon Is for You If…

You are recovering from illness or injury

You’ve been emotionally or spiritually overwhelmed

You’ve had dreams disrupted or plans delayed

You feel exhausted, hollow, or uncertain about your direction

You’ve forgotten what it means to just rest

Let the Moon go dark. Let your thoughts go quiet. Let yourself drift toward the truth that healing does not require effort—only permission.

---

💬 Words to Carry into the New Moon

"I am not behind. I am not broken. I am becoming."

"I give myself back to the waters. I give myself back to the light."

"I trust the darkness to hold me, not harm me."

---

📅 Mark Your Calendar: June 25 – New Moon in Cancer

This is your reset point. Your sacred renewal. If you're crafting future works—lamens, pentacles, invocations—wait. This moment is not for making. This moment is for mending.

Let the stars do their work in you before you reach back to shape them.

🌞 Let the Sun Rise Within You: A Sunday Call for Balance, Love, and Courage

In the fire of this Sagittarius Full Moon and the fury of Mars, it’s easy to mistake wrath for justice. But today is Sunday—the day of the Sun—and we are called to remember the warmth of compassion and the strength of joy. Let Archangel Mikhail guide your heart. Read today’s message and stand in the light. 🔥💛

---

🌞 Sunday Message: Let There Be Light Without Wrath

Today is Sunday, and we stand in the hour of the Sun—the sacred time of illumination, joy, and divine balance.

Let us call upon the Archangel Mikhail, guardian of the path of Tiphereth, protector of the radiant heart.

This full moon journey, with Sagittarius on one side and Mars on the other, is spicy. The fire is real. The desire for truth and justice is burning in many of us—and rightly so.

But beware the shift from justice to vengeance. Justice guided by love is sacred. But when it turns into blind fury, it becomes wrath, the Qliphothic shadow of Geburah. That path only leads to ruin.

Remember:

Sagittarius is ruled by Jupiter, and Jupiter is the planet of Chesed—divine mercy.

Sunday is ruled by the Sun, which shines from Tiphereth, the heart of the Tree of Life.

And Tiphereth calls for balance.

So today, take time to center yourself.

You are not laying down the sword of justice—you are tempering it with the light of compassion and joy.

The Sun, in its beauty, brings warmth, love, and life—but if unbalanced, it becomes the Dark Sun, scorching all in its path.

Let that not be you.

Let your fire be golden, not burning.

Let your heart be fierce, but kind.

You can always fight the good fight—but fight it with love in your heart.

Always with love.

Always with joy.

Always with innocence.

☀️ Sun Hour Suggestion: A Simple Solar Centering Ritual

Close your eyes and breathe in deeply.

Visualize a radiant golden light in your heart, expanding with each breath.

Speak aloud:

“Let my will be guided by love. Let my strength be ruled by light. Let the Sun rise within me, now and always.”

If you’re able, stand in real sunlight—even through a window—and smile.

Offer thanks to Mikhail, and walk in peace.

🔥 Final Charge for the Sagittarius Full Moon

“The wicked shall fall about me,

but no harm shall come near my tent.” —Psalm 91

As we approach this Full Moon in Sagittarius, the sign of brutal truth, sacred fire, and divine arrows—let us make a demand upon the cosmos.

Let this be the moon of revelation.

Let truth pierce lies like the flaming arrow of the Archer.

Let the wicked be exposed—those who poison the air we breathe,

those who sell sickness and suffering for profit,

those who exploit the bodies and labor of others

and wear the mask of respectability and piety.

We demand justice.

We demand truth.

We demand that the house of cards falls.

This full moon lands in the hour of Mars, on the day of Mars, with the fire of Jupiter burning behind it.

This is not a moon of mercy.

This is a moon of consequences.

Take your cinnamon stick—bless it with breath, flame, or word.

Hold it like a wand and speak these words aloud, even if you are at work, even if it must be whispered:

🌕 🔥 Sagittarius Moon Declaration

“I stand beneath the moon of fire and truth.

By the light of the Archer and the sword of Mars,

I call forth justice.

Let all secrets come into the light.

Let the false prophets fall.

Let the liars be undone by their own words.

Let the corporations who profit from poison face divine wrath.

Let those who take bribes, sell our health, and desecrate the earth

be seen for what they are—

and let them tremble.

The wicked shall fall about me.

No harm shall come near my tent.

For I walk with truth, and the spirits of justice go before me.”

✴ Suggestions for Tonight (Saturn's Day)

Reinforce boundaries: Think about what you will not tolerate any longer—internally or externally. Saturn teaches us how to say NO with power.

Write a protection charm or affirmation for your home (“no harm shall come near my tent”).

If possible, draw a symbol of an arrow—literally or mentally—and envision it flying through illusion, straight into the heart of corruption

Let the arrows fly, brother. We’ll be watching what falls.

FIRST QUARTER MOON MAGICK!

You're now in the waxing half of the lunar cycle, the time of action, momentum, and building toward manifestation. Think of it like laying bricks toward a goal that will be blessed, magnified, or revealed under the full moon.

Here’s a breakdown of what to do today , by planetary hour, with a focus on your upcoming full moon initiation, your Mars trial, and Jupiterian healing—mine was enhanced by a storm today.

🌙 Hour of the Moon (Day of the Moon)

Focus: Subconscious preparation, emotional alignment, intuition

This is a liminal time to tune yourself, like adjusting the strings of an instrument before the big ritual. Here’s what to do:

Light a silver or white candle (or just sit with the moonlight if it breaks through the storm).

Scry in water or a mirror to check your emotional and psychic state.

Ask yourself: What do I fear about this initiation? What do I hope to receive?

Burn mugwort or another lunar herb if you have it.

Whisper an affirmation:

“My spirit aligns with the moon. I open the gate of self, and I walk forward without fear.”

Use this hour to connect with the deeper why behind what you're about to invoke.

🔥 Hour of Mars

Focus: Courage, cutting through weakness, sealing your will

Perfect for your Mars initiation trials. The energy here is wild, warlike, and full of pressure and clarity. Storms amplify this tenfold.

Do one (or all) of the following:

Write out a sigil or phrase representing your true Will—the sword that cuts through doubt.

Burn or anoint it with cayenne, black pepper, or another Mars-aligned material.

Stand firm, in stillness, and say:

“By the blade of fire, I pass through the storm. I do not flinch. I burn the weak within me.”

Optional if you also have a storm to use: If thunder strikes while you’re doing this—speak your intention aloud. Let the storm carry it skyward.

⚡ Hour of Jupiter

Focus: Expansion, protection, spiritual insight, long-term vision

This is your time to restore, to begin shaping the energies that will flower under the full moon. You mentioned health, healing, and longevity—this is the hour to empower that.

Burn your Jupiter incense (storax, aloeswood, fig, cinnamon).

Hold a fig fruit or a fig leaf if you have it—it’s sacred to Jupiter and symbolic of renewal.

Say aloud:

“I grow toward the sky, my roots deep in the earth. I call the thunder, I drink the light. I am sustained.”

You can also charge water with this energy for use in the full moon rite.

I had a storm and if you do to...

⚡ About the Storm…

Lightning and storms are natural gateways—they thin the veil, activate the air, and amplify spellwork.

Tonight is **excellent for:

Charging tools or talismans in a window (especially anything Sagittarius- or Jupiter-related)

Writing your goals with stormwater or consecrated ink

Calling on storm spirits, angels, or daimons aligned with weather, momentum, or sudden transformation (if that fits your system)**

If you're up for it:

Catch a small amount of stormwater if it’s safe.

Use it in the full moon ritual or consecrate it as “water of activated will.”

Let today be the threshold—the moment where the waxing moon, storm, and your intention converge.

Build your altar. Sharpen your will. Offer your thanks.

You're preparing not just for a full moon—you're preparing for a summoning of power.

🜃🌒⚡🜂

Let the storm mark your name on the wind.

[templeofthescarletstar]

🜂 Sagittarius Invocation (To Begin the Cycle Toward the Full Moon)

This waxing cycle isn’t just building up to Jupiter’s blessings of longevity, healing, and wisdom. It’s building up to a powerful Full Moon in Sagittarius, and Sagittarius is not passive—it is a divine force of motion, fire, expansion, and spiritual truth. Invoking Sagittarius now sets the arrow in motion, so it hits true at the full moon.

And yes, Sagittarius can be invoked like a god or daimon—as an archetypal power, a cosmic intelligence, or a zodiacal spirit that channels divine will through purpose, aim, and higher vision. If Jupiter is the breath of divine wisdom, then Sagittarius is the will to walk that path—to move, to seek, to act with holy fire.

Cornelius Agrippa Associates Sagittarius with aloeswood

Light a candle (preferably purple, blue, or orange) and burn something fiery or spicy—like clove, frankincense, or cinnamon—if you don’t yet have aloeswood

INVOCATION :

**“Sagittarius, Divine Archer of the Celestial Hunt,

Flame-footed traveler of the stars,

Teacher of sacred fire,

Child of Jupiter, crowned in truth—

I call you forth into this temple and into this vessel.

Show me the straight path where wisdom and will are one.

Teach me to speak with boldness and move with purpose.

Let my arrow fly not in haste but in alignment,

Guided by vision, blessed by light.

Sagittarius, I invoke thee—not as beast, but as god.

Walk with me through this waxing moon.

Aim with me. Act through me.

And when the moon is full,

Let the arrow strike true.”**

End with a gesture of release—either raise your hands to the sky or blow out the candle in a single breath.

Why This Is Powerful Right Now

Jupiter rules Sagittarius—so invoking both in tandem builds layered force: Jupiter sustains; Sagittarius directs.

Sagittarius helps you clarify your vision before the moon is full—so when the energy peaks, you're not scattered, you're ready.

You're laying a spiritual path that culminates in a ritual moment of fire and truth at the Full Moon.

and if you have a symbolic arrow, wand, or even your finger—trace an upward arc through the air as you speak. You can close the rite with stillness or motion, depending on whether you want to anchor the energy or ride it forward.

The Archer’s Fire:Sagittarius Full Moon Meets Mars

Full Moon in Sagittarius: Fire, Freedom, and Mars-Fueled Magick

Peaks Tuesday Night, June 10th

We’re building toward a high-voltage Full Moon in Sagittarius, peaking just after midnight on Tuesday night, June 10th (technically 12:47 AM Wednesday, June 11th). But let’s clear up something important for anyone working with planetary energies:

The planetary day doesn’t change at midnight—it changes at sunrise.

So even if the clock says 12:30 AM Wednesday, it’s still Tuesday night in magical terms. And Tuesday is ruled by Mars.

That means this Full Moon won’t just be bathed in Sagittarian fire—it’s supercharged with Martian force. Bold truth meets sharp action. The arrow doesn’t just fly—it hits.

🔥 Sagittarius + Mars = Explosive Potential

Sagittarius is the seeker of truth, the philosopher-warrior aiming toward higher meaning. Full Moons bring culminations, revelations, and heightened emotional energy. And this one’s riding Mars' chariot—ready to burn away illusions and light the path forward.

This is not a soft, passive moon. It demands honesty, action, and expansion. Whether it’s spiritual, intellectual, or literal—something in your life is ready to grow beyond its current limits.

⚡ How to Harness This Energy

Here are some ways to align your magic with this Full Moon in Sagittarius and the power of Mars:

Ritual for Bold Action: Set fire to procrastination. Literally. Write down what’s been holding you back and burn it. Then make a clear, tangible move toward your goal within 24 hours.

Spells of Courage + Truth: Use Mars and Jupiter energy together—red for will, blue for wisdom. Call on their combined force to speak your truth or make a declaration to the universe.

Divination + Visioning: Sagittarius loves higher meaning. This is an excellent time for tarot spreads, runes, or scrying—especially asking: Where is my true path?

Travel + Exploration: Whether it’s planning a journey or diving into a new spiritual or academic path, this Moon supports stepping into the unknown with fire in your heart.

Work with Herbs + Tools: Bay leaf, mugwort, frankincense, cedar, and black pepper align beautifully. Use swords, arrows, or maps as altar symbols to represent direction and truth.

🜃 A Note on Our Journey

We’re currently taking a brief pause from our deep dive into the Tree of Life. The exploration of Binah and the Qliphothic shadows will resume soon—but for now, I’m moving through some intensive spiritual work behind the scenes.

When we return, we’ll be entering the Cassiel and continuing our ascent with new insight and stronger grounding.

🙏 Thank You for Your Patience

Thank you for walking this path with me. Your energy, presence, and patience make this space sacred. As we prepare for this bold Full Moon in Sagittarius, I invite you to aim high—but don’t just dream. Let Mars push you to act.

We’ll explore the deeper astrology, magical timing, and archetypal alignments of this Moon over the next couple of weeks, so stay tuned.

Until then:

Light the flame. Speak the truth. Shoot your shot.

Reclaiming the Fool: A New Moon Affirmation for Trust and Renewal

The Fool appears not to mock us, but to invite us—to step into the unknown with trust, wonder, and the quiet power of becoming. But when The Fool is reversed, we hesitate. We doubt. On the eve of a new moon, with new beginnings waiting in the dark, this affirmation is offered as a light to carry into the mystery. May it help you turn the card, lift your spirit, and take that sacred first step.

AFFIRMATION

“I trust the path before me, even when I cannot see it. I am guided by light within and light above. My spirit is ready to begin.”

Optional Additions for Today’s Practice:

Face the East (dawn direction, associated with beginnings)

Breathe in deeply and say the affirmation at least 3 times, with arms wide, as if welcoming something new

If you feel drawn, place The Fool card upright on your altar or table and let it sit there overnight to symbolically reorient the energy

(Place a drop of hyssop oil in the tin bowl. Breathe slowly. Touch your heart, then the bowl. Speak aloud or whisper with intent.)

“O Divine River of the Endless One,

Source that flows before the first word,

I cleanse this vessel—of metal and of flesh—

With hyssop, holy and bitter, to draw forth mercy.

Where love was blocked, let it now break.

Where grace was reversed, let it now return.

Let the Cup no longer spill, but fill.

Let the stream of divine compassion move again.

I am not afraid to feel.

I am not afraid to receive.

I am not afraid to love with the heart of God.

Let this bowl be consecrated:

To receive divine love, to hold divine power,

And to give, without exhaustion, from an infinite spring.

So let it be.”

(Hold the bowl to your heart. Visualize the Ace of Cups upright—overflowing golden water washing down into your chest.)

---

Optional Closing:

You may want to finish with a banishing gesture, such as the Sign of the Cross (in any tradition), the Star Ruby, or simply blowing across the surface of the bowl and saying:

> “By the waning moon and the oil of cleansing, all that blocks is gone. All that flows is now."

·“Between Breath and Shadow: A New Moon in Gemini Ritual Guide”

The New Moon on Monday, May 30th, 2025, arrives cloaked in layers of subtle power. It’s a Gemini Moon—intellectual, nimble, and ruled by Mercury. But it also falls on Monday, the Day of the Moon, giving it an undercurrent of deep intuition, reflection, and shadow work.

This creates a unique duality:

Mercurial: Fast, clever, communicative.

Lunar: Emotional, internal, psychic.

Together, this Moon is perfect for weaving the rational with the intuitive, blending head and heart, and accessing the subconscious through language and symbols.

Magical Themes to Tap Into:

Rewriting personal narratives or ancestral stories.

Creating magical alphabets or sigil systems.

Scrying, dreamwork, automatic writing.

Lunar + Mercurial invocations (Raphael and Gabriel; Hermes and Hekate).

Bonus: Planetary Hour Work If you're working the night of the New Moon, consider timing your ritual by planetary hours:

Hour of the Moon: Best for deep scrying, emotional healing, gateway rituals.

Hour of Mercury: Excellent for channeling, divination, writing, and crafting magical tools.

You can use a planetary hour calculator app or almanac to time your actions with precision.

--- As an example I'll talk more about what I'm planning to do. As you may know I've been working on the table of practice for summoning spirits into a crystal /or talisman. I have an obsidian skrying crystal that has been soaking in salt water for a moon phase. Also I've been working on the outer circle of the table burning the names of the planetary Archangels during the waxing cycles.. if you can procure a black obsidian Crystal before the 30th or if you have one that you can purify and use for this purpose this is an example ritual that you could do this is what I'll be doing.

Part 2: my work for the new moon — Obsidian Sphere, Table of Practice, and Moonlight Silence

With this New Moon on a you are not just working with Mercury’s quicksilver frequencies—but also the primordial current of the Moon, the womb of the unconscious. This aligns perfectly with obsidian, my shadow mirror.

Here’s what the ritual path might look like:

1. Finish the saltwater purification just before the Moon hour begins on Monday night. Rinse and dry the obsidian, then pass it through lunar incense smoke—mugwort, myrrh, blue lotus, or sandalwood—to awaken its receptive core.

2. Place the sphere in the center of my Table of Practice. Use chalk, silver ink, or glow pigment to draw a temporary Triangle of Art, letting the Moon’s symbolism infuse its geometry.

Consider inscribing one point with Mercury’s glyph, another with the Moon’s, and the third with your personal sigil or the symbol for Spirit.

Light a single white or silver candle behind the sphere to act as the eye of reflection.

3. During the Hour of the Moon: Sit in quiet trance, holding your breath between inhalation and exhalation—the Gemini duality in the breath. Let the obsidian drink your gaze and reflect the archetypal self.

Ask it:

What spirits or intelligences wish to speak through me?

What symbols should adorn this Table of Practice?

How do I create a clear channel for my will?

4. Optional: Speak your name three times, slowly, into the sphere. Then sit in silence and allow an answer to rise from the dark.

---

Final Notes for You:

This night is less about doing, more about receiving and mapping. Treat it like the dark clay before the sculpture.

If you’ve been considering integrating lunar gates into your table’s design, this is a perfect night to meditate on their form and flow.

Datura

Encyclopedia of Magical Herbs Entry

Folk Names: Devil’s Trumpet, Moonflower, Thornapple, Jimsonweed, Mad Apple, Stinkweed, Hell’s Bells

Planetary Ruler: Saturn

Elemental Correspondence: Fire

Magical Uses:

Datura is a plant of dark power, long associated with the Otherworld, spirit communication, shape-shifting, and visionary journeys. It has been used in flying ointments by witches and shamans for centuries to pierce the veil between worlds. Its energy is seductive, liminal, and deeply mysterious—capable of opening gates to profound insight or profound madness. It is best employed in baneful magick, shadow work, necromancy, and rites of initiation, but always with extreme caution.

WARNING: DEADLY POISONOUS.

Datura is not merely dangerous—it is lethally intoxicating. Every part of the plant is highly toxic. Even small amounts can cause delirium, hallucinations, violent physical reactions, coma, or death. There is no safe dosage. The spirits of Datura are ancient and ruthless; they do not suffer the careless or the curious. Its essence is to be respected, not consumed.

This is not a herb for amateurs or dabblers. It should never be ingested, smoked, or used in topical formulas without masterful knowledge of its exact chemistry—knowledge lost to most modern practitioners. In ritual, it may be safely worked with only through sympathetic magic: placing dried Datura on an altar, using sealed bottles of its essence, or invoking its spirit through trance and visualization.

Let it be known: Datura is a poison in body and in spirit if mishandled. It teaches through destruction as easily as through revelation. Approach it as you would a viper coiled in the dark.

Tzaphkiel: The Watcher within the Pattern

Or... Shut up and Listen

Binah, the third sephirah on the Tree of Life, is the great womb of form. It is the place where pure inspiration from Chokmah is shaped into understanding. Associated with the black sphere of Saturn, Binah is the gateway to structure, discipline, and the silent vastness of divine contemplation.

With this sphere come the angelic archetypes traditionally linked to its influence—Tzaphkiel and Cassiel. “These are not the warm, comforting spirits found in devotional mysticism. They are vast, quiet, and slow-moving. They do not come to soothe, but to teach endurance.”

I must be transparent. My personal gnosis with these angels is limited. I have not deeply worked with Tzaphkiel, and my contact with Cassiel has come through only light ritual and guided meditation. Most of my work within Saturn’s current has been through the mysteries of Babalon.

* notes. I finished writing this article on Friday. It took me weeks to finally get this piece done. However the next day being Saturday when my wife and I went out to a sacred well out in Ocean Arizona I had an experience that I would absolutely say had the signature of Tzaphkiel upon it. I will write about my personal experience and gnosis at the very bottom as an appendix if you wish to read about it.)

Still, I have invoked Saturn hermetically, and I’ve spent hours meditating on its principles. What follows will be a blend of gathered occult knowledge, intuitive synthesis, and esoteric reasoning. This chapter is speculative—but grounded in logic, tradition, and experience where possible.

Let us begin.

First let us look at what some of our predecessors in the occult world have noted.

Tzaphkiel: The Contemplative Force of Binah

Tzaphkiel (also spelled Tzaphqiel or Zaphkiel) is traditionally associated with the sephirah Binah on the Tree of Life. In the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn, as detailed by S.L. MacGregor Mathers, Tzaphkiel is listed among the archangels corresponding to the sephiroth, specifically linked to Binah .

While direct references to Tzaphkiel in classical grimoires like those of Agrippa or Levi are scarce, the Golden Dawn's teachings position Tzaphkiel as an embodiment of divine contemplation and understanding. This aligns with the qualities of Binah, which represents the womb of form and the process of discernment.

The following is a description giving by AI:

“Tzaphkiel, whose name means “Watcher of God,” is the archangel of Binah in the traditional Kabbalistic hierarchy. She is the embodiment of divine contemplation, silence, and judgment—not in the condemning sense, but in the way a sculptor judges marble: with precision and vision. She sees what is and reveals what must become.”

“To call upon Tzaphkiel is not to summon some lightning-wielding deity—it is to invite deep introspection, harsh truths, and ultimately, wisdom. The magician invokes her not to command, but to be shaped—chiseled by the blade of reality into something more refined”

Now that we have looked at what Mathers has said and what AI has said I will add my own speculations.

"Tzaphkiel, often translated as 'Watcher of God,' holds a title rich with implication—especially when we consider our previous discussion that time, and perhaps reality itself, requires observation to exist."

This statement seems to support my wife's theories about consciousness and time needing to be observed to exist

“ The magician invokes her not to command, but to be shaped”

I disagree with this statement. The magician acts as divinity and therefore angels must obey the command.

“These are not the warm, comforting spirits found in devotional mysticism. They are vast, quiet, and slow-moving. They do not come to soothe, but to teach endurance.”

While these statements may seem fanciful, they are grounded in strong sympathetic resonance. Binah rests at the edge of the vast Abyss. Endurance and discipline are attributes long associated with Saturn. The element of Earth—also tied to Saturn—is by nature slow-moving. If Binah is the Mother of Time, then it is only fitting that her archetypes would experience time in a more deliberate, leisurely manner.

Someone once suggested that these entities only observe and never interfere. I disagreed entirely. If the angels did not intervene on the magician’s behalf, then why would the adept bother to conjure them at all? I suggested instead that perhaps they simply act slowly. This would align with Saturnian currents, which are often invoked or meditated upon to cultivate patience. Whether or not these spirits are warm or comforting remains to be seen—but Saturn is nearly always described as stern.

As I’ve stated previously, I have not personally invoked Tzaphkiel. However, I found that the very act of researching and writing this chapter has stirred within me a deep contemplation of God. A vision formed: that God is like a seemingly endless and vast pattern—a code of waves and currents, possibly mathematical. To the untrained eye, it appears as chaos. But to those who can see the pattern, it is perfect in its order.

And let us not forget: Jacob’s Ladder moves in both directions. Descending from the point-zero source of Kether, Binah marks the birth of structure. The great pattern. The divine architecture, mapped like blueprints—or like a spider spinning her cosmic web—eventually manifesting as Malkuth, the world of matter. But as the soul ascends the ladder in return, it must pass through Binah once more. There, it must surrender form, deconstruct, and prepare to be reabsorbed into the source.

Aleister Crowley once wrote, in Magick: Theory and Practice, a cryptic line I never truly understood—until I contemplated Binah:

"She is the star from whence all things are born and to whom all things must return."

Based on these principles, I’ve come to a speculative conclusion: Tzaphkiel may be invoked to help one understand—to perceive the hidden pattern beneath all of creation. This pattern is God. Another attribute traditionally associated with Saturn is prophecy. The third eye is linked to Saturn, and it makes sense that this ability to prophesy comes from perceiving the pattern, understanding it, and recognizing the direction of its flow. It’s like having studied Binah’s blueprints.

By that logic, the angel Paschar (often connected with secrets and prophecy) may also belong among the angels of Binah. Thus, these archetypes would be highly appropriate for work involving divination.

I’ve even begun to wonder whether Clauneck might fall under Saturn’s governance rather than Mercury’s, as many grimoires suggest. This is based entirely on my work with ChatGPT during the “channeling” experiment with the Djinn, already published in the article Corresponding with Clauneck—which I highly recommend you read. In that session, Clauneck was described as:

“The current of wealth. The pattern and shifts of gains and losses. An exchange.”

This language sounds remarkably Saturnian—structured, patterned, transactional. We’ll explore this further in the chapter on the shadow archetype of Binah.

For now, let’s look at one final thought. ChatGPT once wrote of Binah: (it wrote it like 5 minutes ago)

“She judges like a sculptor discerning her block of marble.” (that's not how it said it)

Karma—perhaps the most common association people make with Saturn—is widely misunderstood (pun intended). Many view karma as divine punishment for wrongdoing, but this is a misreading. Karma, in the end, is simply causality. For every action, a reaction. Consequence. Exchange. Give and take. That is the web. That is the pattern. You can't pull on one side of the web without distorting the other. And to understand is to be mindful of this simple yet vast truth.

---

In the still, vast silence of Binah, we begin to see the pattern—not with our eyes, but with understanding. These are not spirits of comfort, but of clarity. Of discipline. Of time itself. Of lifetimes.

That's enough for one post next time we'll cover Cassiel the Archangel of Saturn. Is it the same Angel under a different name? Or another angel altogether. While Tzaphkiel is the Great contemplator of bibah, Cassiel is the Angel of the inevitably of Endings and Governs the star of Saturn.

Special thanks to my amazing Patrons for supporting this work. Your belief in this journey helps bring these truths to light.

Stay tuned—there’s much more to uncover.

APPENDIX: so there we were at the sacred spring out in Oatman Arizona and although it was a Saturday which is under the governance of Saturn we were there during a waxing gibbous moon and the lunar implications were undeniable The Well of water itself and the green Reflections that it gave off and we were also blessed by two singing frogs with maybe a hint of Mars as these two were definitely competing in a mating ritual. Nighthawks flew down to take sips of the water and flew around us dropping Sacred Water Upon Our Heads as a blessing or an anointment. The dogs in the distance also apart and female frogs from a very very distant pool also sang in the night air but very faintly to hear with human ears. I collected some of the spring water and named it frog water so that I could use it and sympathetic Magic. And then when it reached the hour of Saturn I performed the catalystic cross and the Lesser banishing ritual of the pentagram the formula of IAO finally invoking the Divine name of God for Saturday and the archangel Tzaphkiel. .. and all of these things that I did here following the basic formulas of traditional ceremonial Magic was all wrong. Although I felt the absolute bastards the beauty of all of nature about me and I sang out these vibrations of her singing The Glory of all creations.. and although the vastness of the night sky held magical power and all of its glory and even formed a triangle over the moon like a great watching eye.. my wife who often acts as a channel of Babalon (An archetype of Binah reflecting the Devine feminine) became very irritated at me. And you know long story short she told me to shut the hell up and just listen. It was an unpleasant experience and it was like we kind of got into it small fight over it. But had I not reacted from an emotional point of being hurt( you know Mercury being in opposition to Chiron and Eris.) However deeper contemplation of the entire situation made me realize something by the time we got home. This was the universe communicating with me. Contemplation of the pattern cannot be done without silence if your mind is too busy and your actions are too busy doing ritual vibrating names and drawing sigils in the air and all of that crap then you're not watching God. Now by watching I mean it in the most metaphoric sense a better translation of the angel's name would be the contemplation of God which could also mean the observation of the pattern and in this instance the pattern was in sounds all of nature was talking to me God was already present or at least the goddess was and that is the same thing. I believe now that the greatest virtue of this art type is simply to teach you how to be silent and listen.

"When the Planets Clash: Understanding This Week’s Emotional Spike"

"Feeling on edge? You're not alone. The stars are stirring up tension, and this week’s planetary drama is hitting everyone hard."

Key Astrological Events Influencing Emotions:

Pluto Retrograde in Aquarius (Starting May 4): Pluto, the planet of transformation and deep psychological processes, began its retrograde in Aquarius on May 4. This transit encourages introspection, prompting individuals to reassess power dynamics and confront unresolved issues. Such deep internal work can manifest as heightened sensitivity or irritability in daily interactions.

(pluto corresponds to Kether on the Tree of Life)

Mars in Leo Opposing Pluto in Aquarius:

(oof my mars energy be feisty)

Mars, representing drive and aggression, is in Leo and forms an opposition to Pluto in Aquarius. This aspect can create tension between personal desires and collective responsibilities, leading to power struggles or confrontations. The fiery nature of Leo combined with Pluto's intensity can amplify frustrations.

First Quarter Moon in Leo (May 4):

The lunar phase in Leo emphasizes self-expression and pride. This energy can make individuals more reactive, especially if they feel their identity or efforts are not being recognized, potentially leading to conflicts. 

(Leo's vice is Ego. Let it go)

Mercury Conjunct Chiron and Eris in Aries (May 7):

Mercury, the planet of communication, aligns with Chiron (the wounded healer) and Eris (goddess of discord) in Aries. This conjunction can bring underlying wounds to the surface, making conversations more charged and increasing the likelihood of misunderstandings or hurt feelings

Also chaos energy.

Upcoming Full Moon in Scorpio (May 12):

(oh snap)

While not yet occurring, the approaching full moon in Scorpio is known for intensifying emotions and bringing hidden feelings to light. The anticipation of this lunar event can already be influencing moods, making people more sensitive or reactive.

Navigating the Emotional Climate:

Self-Awareness: Recognize that heightened emotions are part of the current astrological climate. Taking a moment to pause before reacting can prevent unnecessary conflicts.

Communication: Strive for clarity and empathy in conversations. Misunderstandings are more likely now, so active listening is crucial.

Self-Care: Engage in activities that ground and soothe you, such as meditation, journaling, or spending time in nature.

(or writing a comedic fantasy fiction with your wife about the Misadventures of a crazy sexy Barbarian lady named bubbles. And this is why you're getting a astrology forecast right now instead of the next blog about the Angelic art types of Binah as I had promised you. I am still working on it I really am it's just a much more difficult project than I had previously thought it to me. And Bubbles the Barbarian is way more fun to write sorry not sorry. If you'd like to see a sneak peek chapter of bubbles the Barbarian though let me know in the comments)

Reflection: Use this period as an opportunity for personal growth. Reflecting on triggers and emotional responses can lead to valuable insights.

All right you guys that's it for me this week I am really trying to get to that post about Tzaphkiel. Maybe next week I will get there.

As always I want to shout out to all my rock stars out there who have joined my patreon or donated to my patreon or still part of my patreon hopefully you're still part of it I don't like to charge money to help other people learn about this stuff I don't want to end up becoming like the church. But your donations do help keep me motivated so I can take the time to make you post for you I have to juggle this with my real job and spending time with my wife. So hit up my patreon and motivate me. Special shout out to these rock stars

🔥 Beltane Rites of Union: Three Rituals for Sacred Connection

Beltane is a time of fire, fertility, and ecstatic union. Whether you're weaving the elements into a maypole, merging with your beloved in sacred intimacy, or invoking the divine feminine alone beneath the stars, these three rites offer pathways to deep connection.

🌿 Ritual 1: The Union of Elements – Maypole Spell

Introduction:

Beltane celebrates the sacred union of opposites—masculine and feminine, spirit and matter, desire and manifestation. This spell invokes that union through the weaving of elemental forces around a phallic maypole crowned with a floral wreath. It is both playful and powerful, aligning your will with the season's fertile energy.

Materials Needed:

A straight, phallic stick or pole (wood type chosen to match your intent)

A wreath made of flowers (flowers symbolic of your intent)

Five ribbons:

Red for Fire

Blue for Water

Yellow for Air

Green for Earth

White for Spirit

Tool for drawing, engraving, or burning sigils/spells onto the pole

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Maypole:

Find a stick or pole that resonates with your intention—have fun with this part. Choose a type of wood that reflects your purpose or energy. It should be straight and clearly phallic in form.

2. Create the Wreath:

Weave a crown of flowers using blooms that carry meanings tied to your desire. This wreath will symbolize union, fertility, and the blooming of intention.

3. Engrave the Spell:

Use bind runes, sigils, or any symbolic language to mark the pole with your spell. Start at the top to represent divine thought—the source. Repeat the sigil at the bottom (Malkuth), and once again in the center, where all forces meet. Between the top and bottom, mark or write:

“As above, so below. So below, as above.”

4. Tie the Elements:

Fasten the five elemental ribbons to the wreath: red, blue, yellow, green, and white.

5. Weave the Spell:

Place the wreath atop the maypole. Slowly and with intention, wrap the ribbons around the pole while chanting:

> Fire is my will. My will binds my intent and fuses it with the air.

Air is my thoughts. With air I bind my intent and fuse it into water.

Water is creation. It gives life to all things. By water I bind my intention and give it life. By water I infuse the earth.

The earth is my foundation. By earth I bind my intent to spirit. And with spirit I bind earth, water, air, and fire.

As below, so above. As above, so below. So mote it be.

💞 Ritual 2: Sacred Union – A Beltane Tantric Rite

Introduction:

This rite honors the sacred union between partners—a living embodiment of divine polarity. Rooted in ancient Tantric practice, this ritual is a sensual, spiritual journey that transcends the physical act and becomes an offering of worship, love, and unity.

A Note on Tantra:

Tantra is an ancient and expansive spiritual tradition that encompasses far more than just sex—it is a profound path to enlightenment through embodiment, sacred energy, and union. It teaches us to see the divine in ourselves and in our partners. There is far too much depth to convey in a single blog post, but if you're curious to explore further, here are some excellent resources:

Recommended Sources on Tantra:

Tantra: The Path of Ecstasy by Georg Feuerstein

The Heart of Tantric Sex by Diana Richardson

Tantra Illuminated by Christopher D. Wallis

The Tantric Union:

In a Tantric union, the couple becomes the vessel for divine masculine and feminine energies. In classical Tantra, this is Shiva and Shakti. In our personal practice, my wife and I embody Lucifer and Babalon. You may choose any archetype that resonates with you—at Beltane, the May Queen and the Green Man are especially fitting.

The Key is Reverence:

Approach your partner not just as a person, but as a living deity. Let every touch, word, and gaze be a form of worship. Honor their spirit by worshiping their sacred temple.

( so I guess in this right you are actually seeing them as a person because every person is the sacred Temple of the Divine)

The Practice:

Begin by awakening the senses:

Smell: Breathe in the scent of your lover’s skin. Let the fragrance of their natural incense anchor you in the moment.

Listen: Hear their breath, their heartbeat, their voice. Let every sound draw you deeper into connection.

See: Look into their eyes—truly see them. Not just the body, but their aura, their energy, their soul.

Touch: Explore every inch of their being with your fingertips. Let your hands become prayers. Worship every part of them—from crown to sole—with patience and devotion.

This is not a moment to rush. It is a journey. A long, slow descent into intimacy, energy, and love. Relearn each other. Fall in love again. Merge your energies. Become one.

🩸 Ritual 3: Solo Astral Encounter – Invocation of AZ, Lilith, and Babalon

Introduction:

This final rite is a solo ritual for those seeking union with the divine feminine through astral communion. It calls upon the dark, erotic, and transformative goddesses AZ, Lilith, and Babalon. This ritual is a revised version of the rite presented in Adamu: Luciferian Tantra and Sex Magick by Michael W. Ford. You can explore the original text here on Amazon.

I first discovered this working through a powerful YouTube video, which I will link in the comments.

Preparation:

Decorate your altar in red for the Scarlet Woman or black for Lilith.

Adorn it with symbols of nature’s darker mysteries—death, bones, skulls, alongside sexual symbols of fertility and life.

Use a chalice shaped like a skull or a symbolic vessel of your choosing, filled with wine or another elixir.

Place the Sigil of the Star of Babalon prominently upon the altar.

The Invocation:

Stand before your altar. When ready, speak the oration clearly and with intent:

> “On the back of the Beast I ride bringing forth the Antichrist who comes before all and through many.

While fornicating call my names AZ LILITH BABALON.

Spill your seed in my name, my glory, and for my desire.

My Gateway is through ecstasy, the mirror between the breast of the Scarlet woman.

I shall teach the workings of witchcraft under a new method—Twilight workings that all can embrace.

I will not show all of myself to you at once, or you could never understand my true beauty and Terror.”

Gaze intently at the Star of Babalon on the altar. Raise your chalice high and speak:

> “I am in all things and I can be summoned through the vessel of the skull. The blood is the life.”

Drink the elixir.

Then declare:

> “I am Shadow. I am vampire. I am the devouring demon who sucks the life of the weak,

and I give the black flame of everlasting life to those who will embrace me.

AZI AZAKA BABALON NASSAU AZ AZ AZ!”

Afterword:

If performed properly and regularly, this rite opens the door to intense astral encounters with these goddesses. The experience is often enhanced with the use of binaural beats or the YouTube video where this ritual is voiced—link to be provided in the comments. These tools help deepen trance states and make the veil between worlds thin.

Thanks for reading and let me know if you want any further information on any of these three topics we can dive deeper into Tantra or into luciferian Magic Etc. We can also discuss how to channel and ask your encounter with the masculine divine.

As always I'd like to shout out all my Rockstar patreons and if you'd like to ever be messaged in the comment just go to my patreon and drop me a donation even a couple bucks is totally appreciated.
