4=7 | The Rosey Cross Ritual

The Rose Cross Ritual

Original Golden Dawn version of the basic ritual.

1. Light a stick of incense. Go to the South East corner of the room. Make a large cross and circle.

Holding the point of the incense in the center vibrate the word Yeheshuah.

2. With arm outstretched on a level with the centre of the cross, and holding the incense stick, go to the South West corner and make a similar cross, repeating the Word.

3. Go to the North West corner and repeat the cross and the Word.

4. Go to the North East corner and repeat the cross and the Word.

5. Complete your circle by returning to the South East corner and bringing the point of the incense to the central point of the first cross which you should imagine astrally there.

6. Holding the stick on high, go to the centre of the room, walking diagonally across the room towards the North West corner. In the centre of the room, above your head, trace the cross and circle and vibrate the Name.

7. Holding the stick on high, go to the North West and bring the point of the stick down to the centre of the astral cross there.

8. Turn towards the South East and retrace your steps there, but now, holding the incense stick directed across the floor. In the centre of the room, make the cross and circle towards the floor, as it were, under your feet, and vibrate the Name.

9. Complete this circle by returning to the South East and bringing the point of the stick again to the centre of the Cross, then move with arm outstretched to S.W. corner.

10. From the centre of this cross, and, raising stick before, walk diagonally across the room towards the North East corner. In the centre of the room, pick up again the cross above your head previously made, vibrating the Name. It is not necessary to make another cross.

11. Bring the stick to the centre of the North East cross and return to the South West, incense stick down, and pausing in the centre of the room to link up with the cross under your feet.

12. Return to the South West and rest the point of the incense a moment in the centre of the cross there. Holding the stick out, retrace your circle to the North West, link on to the N.W. Cross — proceed to the N.E. cross and complete your circle by returning to the S.E., and the centre of the first cross.

13. Retrace the cross, but larger, and make a big circle, vibrating for the lower half Yeheshuah, and for the upper half Yehovashah.

14. Return to the centre of the room, and visualise the six crosses in a net-work around you. This ceremony can be concluded by the analysis of the Key-Word given as follows:

1. Stand with arms outstretched in the form of a cross. Face East.

2. Vibrate these words:

I. N. R. I.

Yod-Nun-Resh-Yod

The sign of Osiris Slain.

3. Right arm up, left arm extended out from shoulder, head bowed toward left hand.

L. — The Sign of the Mourning of Isis.

4. Both arms up in a V shape.

V. — The Sign of Typhon and Apophis.

5. Arms crossed on breast, head bowed.

X. — The Sign of Osiris Risen.

6. Make the signs again as you repeat L.V.X.

L.V.X. Lux.

7. Arms folded on breast, head bowed.

The Light of the Cross.

8. Then arms extended in the Sign of Osiris Slain (see 1).

Virgo – Isis – Mighty Mother

Scorpio – Apophis – Destroyer

Sol – Osiris – Slain and Risen

9. Gradually raise arms.

Isis – Apophis – Osiris

10. Arms above head, face raised.

I. A. O.

11. Except when in the Vault, now vibrate the four Tablet of Union Names to equilibriate the Light.

Exarp – Hcoma – Nanta – Biton

12. Aspire to the Light and draw it down over your head to your feet.

Let the Divine Light Descend.

THE USE OF THE ROSE CROSS RITUAL

1. It encloses the aura with a protection against outside influences. It is like a veil. The Pentagrams protect, but they also light up the astral and make entities aware of you. They are more positive for magical working. When much distracted, use the Pentagrams to banish and the Rose-cross to maintain peace.

2. It is a call to another mode of your consciousness and withdraws you from the physical. It is a good preparation for meditation and, combined with the Key-Word, a form of invocation of the Higher Wisdom which is helpful when solving problems or preparing for a difficult interview, or in order to be calm and strong to help another.

3. When you are quite familiar with the Ritual, but most certainly not before, it can be done in imagination while resting or lying down. Part of yourself goes out, and you get all the sensation of walking around your own quiescent body. Used thus, with rhythmic breathing, it will withdraw your mind from pain (if it be not too severe) and release you for sleep. You can do the analysis of the Key-Word standing behind your physical head, and you can call down the Divine White Brilliance, watching it flow over your body and smooth out the tangles in the etheric double, bringing peace and rest.

4. You can do the Ritual with intention to help others in pain or difficulty. For this purpose, you build up an astral image of the person, in the centre of the room, and call down the Light upon him, after surrounding him with the six crosses. When the ceremony is done, command the astral shape you have made to return to the person, bearing with it the peace of Yeheshuah.

5. It is a protection against psychic invasion from the thoughts of others or from disturbed psychic conditions, such as there might be in a place charged with fear, where terrible things had happened.

Hebrew Errors in the Circle in Mathers’ Key of Solomon Book 2, Chapter 9

Frater S.C.F.V's avatarLight in Extension: A Magical Journal

seal2this site While I’ve been doing intensive research in various manuscripts of the Key of Solomon and Lemegeton and working on my Circle, I’ve been learning some fascinating things, in some cases discovering errors that I haven’t seen mentioned in any other sources.

For example, in Book 2, Chapter 9 of Mathers’ Key of Solomon, Mathers’ diagram shows the Hebrew text of “Who is like unto thee, oh YHVH?” from Exodus 15:11 added in the second Band of the Circle.

However, in almost every source I’ve seen, and in both Mathers’ original presentation and Mr. Donald Tyson’s presentation thereof in Serpent of Wisdom, there are many mistakes in the Hebrew given for this verse (this site quotes the erroneous text as a transliterated “MI KMIK BALIM IHVH”, for instance).

I looked the passage up in the Hebrew Tanakh to verify and in case anyone else is constructing a…

Consecration Ritual for a Solomonic Lighter of the Art

Frater S.C.F.V's avatarLight in Extension: A Magical Journal

By Frater S.C.F.V.

sol

One idea I had on this past waxing-Mooned Day of Mercury was to make a Solomonic Lighter of the Art.

To go about it, I painted a barbecue lighter white during the Hour of Mercury on the Day of Mercury when the Moon was waxing.


HELPFUL TIP: Should  you choose to craft your own Lighter of the Art, I recommend leaving a little space unpainted around the switches that activate the fire in the lighter. If you paint too closely to the switches, paint can slip into the grooves and render the switches unmovable and the lighter, unusable. I learned this lesson the hard way; paint got into the grooves, the switches ceased to function, and I had to start over with a second lighter. How often our magical wisdom grows from foolish mistakes…


For this method, having painted the handle of a barbecue lighter white or eggshell white acrylic paint, you will…

An empowering MARS LILITH exact conjunction March 18-19 @ 17+ degrees CAPRICORN conjunct to PLUTO squaring ERIS in ARIES. That’s a very strong uncompromising Masculine Feminine balance of power. This could be what is creating the historic North Korea-South Korea Peace agreement.
Things are changing big time my friends. If you have planets from 15-25 degrees Cardinal signs- Aries Cancer Libra and Capricorn you are feeling this energy.
This aspect can empower any woman or man to embrace and bring into your body the powers that LILITH represents. LILITH really only wants to be treated as an equal which she already is. Capricorn is practical physical and represents the Patriarchy. It could symbolize women really becoming fierce Amazon Liliths and refusing to have sex with men and fiercely attacking any Patriarchal senators or old boys club trying to restrict women’s freedom of choice.

Contemplations …

Most persons spend a large part of their lives doing things they do not want to do. As a result, there is a certain grudging every step of the way. The mind and the emotions balk at necessities. We seek every possible evasion, which usually multiplies labor. We hurry, which increases error. We do not wish to give each task its proper allotment. While we are doing some trivial and routine thing, the mind is far off in space doing something else. We are forever trying to satisfy the desires in our minds and emotions at the same time that we are trudging along some physical path that is distasteful.

SURPRISING REASON WHY YOU READ CARDS

Camelia Elias's avatarTAROFLEXIONS

Easy-going. That’s it.

Not easy-going fun – there’s tons of fun in reading cards, and you all know that already – but easy-going in the sense of acceptance.

What is surprising about reading cards is that they say: Take it easy and keep going.

The ‘take it easy part’ is important, as it allows you to understand that although you may read cards to get to the bottom of things – to strategize for a better relationship at work or at home, to be creative in your projects, to find your path and settle goals – in reality, when you read cards you want to learn how to take it easy so that you keep things together and in balance, as balance is the only condition for your resilience.

It’s already a given that you can’t keep going without resilience. Resilience is not fun. Therefore, you need to take it…

A relationship breakup spell with the seal of Bucon

Lucifera's avatarPITCH BLACK CRAFT

Summon Bucon if you want to ruin the love life of your enemy.

Avoid doing this spell if you are in a good love relationship or even worse: happily married. If you have nothing to loose (like me), then go ahead and destroy the love life of your enemy.

This spell needs time to become very dense on the astral plane, but Lucifers demons never let their Witches down. Know firmly that Bucon is working hard and will destroy the love life of your enemy.

According to Grimoirium Verum, all the demons under Lucifer, must be summoned during a Tuesday.

Most of the demons from Grimoirium Verum come from the Qlipha of Golab (the shell of Sephira Geburah).

I do not summon Scirlin these days, because while I was working with Sustugriel, I began really hearing Sustugriel.

Pillars of Jachin and Boaz 2.0

Frater S.C.F.V's avatarLight in Extension: A Magical Journal

pillarsFor the past 10 years, in my personal Temple, I had used Pillars made from PVC pipe placed in the very shaky foundations of foam squares, with painted foam tetrahedrons on top, that I carved out of the crumbly foam material by hand. The result as it appeared after finishing the painting over 10 years ago can be seen in the image on the left. I call these Pillars 1.0.

The result was, to say the least, very unstable, very apt to fall over or be knocked over by a zealous Zelator, and after many years of wear and tear, both pyramids ended up falling apart, and both bases utterly crumbled into dust, without exaggeration!  In short, I was left with Pillars that could no longer stand, what echos of the fallen Temple of Solomon!

Alchemy | Contemplations …

“The Way of the Fool is the way of the independent traveler on the Path of Initiation. Such a traveler may study under a variety of Masters, yet will strive always to preserve his or her own identity, and rarely undertakes vows of silence which will bind his or her being to a particular school or teaching. The most enduring arcane image of this wandering Fool is that found on the early Tarot cards.

His nakedness is a sign that the true Fool is prepared to show those things that others prefer to hide. Those Fools who show the way to that higher vision arising from initiation are often seen by the Sleepers as foolish. (The Sleepers are those who have not elected to follow a spiritual path. They are content with the realm of appearances, and want only to be left alone, to sleep.)

A man or woman’s life reveals the archetypes they have followed. That’s why the Fool is prepared to go through life naked to the world, knowing that the lower is nothing more than a reflection of the higher. The Fool progresses only by means of the questions he asks.

A Teacher can indicate the Way, but he cannot show the Way. There are the two Ways ­­–­ the Way Up and the Way Down – and among the ways up is the Way of the Fool. The zero marks the intersection between the Way Up and the Way Down, where there is neither Up nor Down.

To what purpose, we must ask, would anyone wish to follow the Way of the Fool? It is no easy role to play. The Way of the Fool is so open to misunderstanding and mockery. To the casual glance – which is the glance of most people – it does not even appear to be a Way at all.

Yet there is such a Way, even if it is only one followed by men and women striving to establish a Spiritual identity for themselves, divested of outer trappings. On this way, the Fool is sensitive to symbols. Indeed, if the Fool is alert enough, sufficiently progressed along the Path, then everything becomes a symbol.

The keyword for all the paths is commitment. When you have committed yourself to an action, then the whole cosmos will conspire to help you.

The cosmos recognizes commitment, which is in itself a kind of prayer. If you commit yourself, then you will find that the angels are ranged on your side. And so, make a commitment. Remember it. Stick to it. And if you choose the Way of the Fool, do not fear appearing to be a Fool in the eyes of the world, for, if you do not stray too far from the ancient road, in the eyes of God, you will always remain the beloved Fool.

Yet, this is certainly no mystical injunction to forget the world, for the hermeticist is trained never to forget the world – as it is his or her forging ground. The hermeticist is ever prepared to burn in exchange for gnosis, or to peel away the onion which wrap up the world’s Mysteries and himself.

For every faltering step taken by Man, God in his stillness bounds towards Man a hundred steps. Initiation is an art, a Spiritual performance which can last a lifetime, and then pour into subsequent lifetimes.

There is only one complete initiation for one who dwells in the body. Then, at that marvelous moment of initiated insight, you will see that life itself is art: it is the art of the gods. The art of Man merely reflects the shadow of this creative exuberance. Initiation is the ultimate art of the gods, practised with more or less imperfection by men.

The Fool is prepared to reveal more than ordinary people, if only to lay bare the basic structure of the Spiritual world.”

– from “The Zelator” by Mark Hed
