With that said…..
Financial Sorcery: I think it was really great that I made the cashbox, it seemed to be really focusing the Jupiterian energies around me – like a physical outlet/anchor for me.My family and I has been riding a wave of good luck these days that it seems crazy – just winning the lottery would be the icing on the cake (lol).
IIH Immersion: Still polishing up one of the modules in Step IV but I think I’m almost ready to move on to Step V.
Lucid Dreaming: Started a sigil last week or so. Need to constantly implement it though before I sleep. I need my body to sleep and rest but I want to still train innerly (?)….. Once I can stay lucid in a dream, I might try to pull some “Inception” shite and go in deeper, and deeper, so I can have all the time in the world – think hyperbolic time chamber.
Geomancy: I started working on this divination tech and I’m starting to like it very much. I’ve read through Agrippas, Hartmanns, and the internetz for resources and I’m getting the hang out it. Special thanks to Polys’ post on Geomancy recently – very inspirational and helped clear some of the stuff I was unclear about. I’m hoping he does a sample reading of sorts and break down how he goes through a reading.
Spirituality: Been working on meditation more, also spiritual principles to internalize, writing prayers, etc. Very Zen at the moment.
Clients: 2 more clients to go till I go on complete hiatus in regards to this practice.
One is doing good, one is not so doing good. Well with the latter, we were up against some improbably odds but you know what – why do magick when you’re not willing to go against the improbable.
Misc: Have to start looking for articles for the TOHO e-zine. Chapbooks are on slow work. Grimoire on slow work. Got some books to read. Finally listened to all the podcast that I had in queue.
Happy almost spring time.
I wasn’t planning on doing a geomantic divination process post, but the method I use is pretty straightforward:
Figure out your query.
Generate the Mothers while contemplating the query.
Calculate the rest of the Shield Chart and the House Chart based on the Mothers.
Calculate the Sum of the Chart, the Via Puncti (if it can be formed), company between the houses, the Part of Fortune, and the Part of Spirit.
If the query is a yes/no question, inspect the chart to see whether there’s any perfection between the house of the querent and the house of the quesited.
Inspect the Court (Judge, Witnesses, Sentence/Reconciler) for the high-level answer.
Inspect the House Chart for the details of the answer.
Not much more to it than that; this is the same process as can be found in any geomancy text from the Renaissance onward. Sometimes, a glance at the Judge is all that’s needed, or a glance at perfection. The full details of the charts and the answer are often helpful, but sometimes a simple yes or no will do.
