Did you know that birds can howl and that wolves can sing?

[chestofoddities]

As per Archangel Michael's instructions, the next initiation shall be Venus and not Sol.

I shall reconnect with myself through Venus first.

Lunar Initiation II, with Archangel Gabriel (April 12, 2025)

First, read this for context.Conditions for the initiation: nighttime planetary hour of the moon on Monday, full moon night.

Tools: sacrifice, white candle, cup with water, grimoire, metal bowl.

This is the second and last part of the Initiation ruled by Luna:

It's too late to stop them from watching. They are looking at this very moment. You must create a safe space not only through your energy, but also through your actions. Do not get distracted, fulfill your duty. It's you who you must find in the dark, not others. - Archangel Michael

I see a small light coming closer, alongside a thurible being swung rhythmically, much like a pendulum. It appears to be an angel, but I don't get the impression he's Gabriel.

He tells me to follow him, repeating this way. I hesitate; it's difficult to know who I can trust right now. I let it pass me by and focus on Luna and Archangel Gabriel.

"Great Moon"

(I light the candle)

Prayer to Luna

"I have walked in your shadow, and I have realized that I flee much like a dog does, right as your light makes itself present. Oh, majestous. Oh, illuminating one; I have staggered over your very revelation, for your light has exalted a painful but necessary truth. Luna, I embrace you. Luna, I let you go. Your light has reached its peak, and it's in your grandeur that I release myself. Please allow your passing assistance to leave its footprint on me, for I am open to it. Allow your light to shine on me, and allow me to connect with myself, my spirit, and my feelings. Exacerbate my qualities that answer to your light. Luna, first master in my path, strip my spirit from its blockages."

(I take the candle and proceed to cast a sacred circle)

As I traced the circle, spinning on my own axis, I could see the flame of the candle reveal creatures watching me in the dark. It's useless, though; they can't make it in. It's a safe space now.

Water incantation

"Primordial conduit, lunar mirror; channel the flow of the universe upon my humble request. I bless you from the bottom of my being, so when I drink you, you shall flow inside of me, and clench this thirst at once."

(I drink the water in the cup while repeating in my mind "flow inside me, universe", "flow within me, great moon", "wash away all blockages)

Archangel Gabriel Invocation

"Lunar master, spirit of light and harmony, preside over this change and put it in order with your harmony. Soon the wind shall blow in my direction, may your wings shield me from cuts and scratches. Holy angel, Holy heavenly being, divine messenger, I invoke you, Holy Archangel Gabriel! Listen to my prayer and don't forget my flaming request. Show me your way, Lunar master! Take me to my destination! Archangel Gabriel, I beseech you with my deepest wish. "

(I take the piece of paper where I wrote down my request and burn it with the flame of the candle)

(As the paper burns in the bowl, I request the angel once again in my head)

Full Moon Invocation

"From waning to waxing, you've grown, oh, great moon. Your passage is but a perpetual cycle, but I have uncovered your mysteries through the art of walking with you. For that reason, full moon, eternal moon, I invoke you so you may illuminate my life. May your pale light wake my spirit bound to shadows."

(I release the sigil/my sacrifice I used in the lunar initiation I from the mirror and burn it to free myself)

"Luna, I surrender this part of me to you."

"Hereby I surrender myself, my pain, my shortcomings, my limitations, and my chains."

(The paper resists the fire, but ultimately it burns down)

"Finish burning up, deliver yourself to the moon. Do not resist, surrender."

"I deliver myself to your everlasting grandeur, pure and eternal. Break my chains, master of beasts, for my spirit howls for you with passion. Absorb me, transport me, take me to the side of light and truth. Unruly moon, please release my spirit."

"Holy being, help me wake up."

"The moon shines in, not for the night."

Meditation and Automatic Writing with Archangel Gabriel

Do you see them? Many are the ones watching. They are witnessing this prowess, this revelation, this release. They, too, wish to release themselves from these shackles. They envy you, but you walk no easy path.

The moon has shown you darkness. What have you learned? You've even burned yourself in offering, drank from the well... Young one, oh, young one. You have come out of the dark and stepped into the bare face of the moon.

Now she is to judge, now she contemplates and takes over. And I, simply watch.

You wished to walk my path, and you wandered, but you have made it here. I give you my blessing to finish this initiation. It has served its purpose, to show you the things you fall for are lies, and how innocent you are. As for your character... It's naive. You've got much to learn, child, if you want to get to the bridge, to the gate of Mars, and face your destiny.

Oh, wonderful, you've delivered yourself to your path. Rejoice, let us celebrate your deliverance, for one day, at the end, it will grant you true freedom, the freedom you look for. You yearn, but you must achieve your goal.

Time will come soon (my mind wanders to my petition). Do not despair, you are being kept in mind. There are plans being worked on for you. Great things await.

Hereby, I comply with my role as a messenger. Here and now, I tell you, child, do not give up. Keep looking for the truth. Do be warned, though, that your own flame can and will burn you. Therefore, you're instructed to complete these initiations. It all serves a purpose; it all plays into your goal and future achievement.

Celebrate, soon you will celebrate. When things are right, the path will be smooth and gentle, like a breeze. This breeze has carried you to many places and many people. Now you're just in need of a push. So let your flame burn gently, and let it flow, like water, defying the laws and the natural.

Child, I truly celebrate with you. I am a bearer of great news, even if it's your wishful thinking, know your yearning will be heard.

And you... You will be seen, although that might not always play in your favor.

Sweet child, don't fear to irradiate light in a world of darkness. You've made it out stronger, with your fire burning brighter. For Sol, I cannot tell, but you are a mighty flame; you just need to learn to dance.

Merry one, wondrous, all in due time.

There will be those that appear friendly but are only seeking to harm you, and there will be suspicious allies whose intentions are unclear, but do not seek your downfall.

You will see stars, but don't let them consume you. Your fire must burn only for yourself.

Archangel Gabriel, what do I need to know to finish this Lunar Initiation in peace?

Do not despair, faith is always stronger in the wake of doubt and challenges.

Daughter of the Sun, I command you, beseech your kind, and follow your domain. Soon you will reach the gate of Sol, and you might find unexpected answers to questions you didn't even know you had.

This initiation might feel more like a courtesy, but you are on the right track. Just keep believing, for much like the moon, when faith wanes, it is sure to wax again.

Let that be the teaching of Luna.

Farewell to Archangel Gabriel

"Oh, Holy angel. Do not forget my request on your way back. I thank you for hearing my calling. Holy angel, may you return peacefully to your domain. Blessed one, I thank you enormously!"

"May Luna complete her cycle, and my initiation conclude at the gate of Sol."

(I close my sacred space)

[chestofoddities]

I had a dream a girl was trying to talk me into giving a sexual offering to a demon king.

I saw through it and managed to escape that place.

Weird stuff.

[chestofoddities]

Things keep coming to light, it's true.

The rats will run scurried away.

I won't let anyone stop me.

[chestofoddities]

Eternally looking for something that remains hidden

[chestofoddities]

[chestofoddities]

I saw myself on a wooden raft, sailing through cosmic waters with the sky above me being the universe shinning its splendor.

The raft was guided by a hooded figure. I couldn't do much but look at the universe and lay there.

I understood this was right after my spirit was persecuted and felled. My spirit of course, didn't fully die there and then. Seemingly someone came to get me.

The raft reaches a temple and someone comes out for me.

I'm afraid the memory ends there.

[chestofoddities]

Short conversation with Archangel Michael (May 3, 2025)

Listen up. Write it if it's necessary. Something is corrupting luna. That encounter just now was no exception (a lord of the dead approaching me offering to reveal my truth).

You have decided to walk a path of light and darkness, but not in the way you thought. Like it was explained to you, working with these (planetary) influences means people/things becoming aware of you, and there's no telling what their true intentions are.

Was that skeleton sent by you know who?

It's unlikely, but, I can't fully deny it just yet.

Something is watching you and I don't like it. I remind you, actually, I instruct you to rework your wards, but do so under the light. The light closest to you, where you feel the safest. It will be able to provide a suitable protection for you and your space.

Did I do something wrong?

That I can not tell (it's complicated).

(I see a dragon with 5-7 heads. It possesses a very thick aura that makes up the darkness in which its engulfed. It's greedy, and it's thirsty)

You have to exercise more caution.

But I genuinely don't know what I did wrong.

Then I genuinely can't tell you, when will you learn child?

I do not blame you, but my accusatory entonation is out of concern.

Something has its eye on you and its nasty.

(The dragon has stars as crowns)

It's best you lay low for now. Do your task. Don't try to do anything other than elevating your protection spells.

You cannot sense it like I can, but this energy is very nasty.

Exercise caution.

Lunar Initiation I Update - 2 days in

As the moon waxes, a lot of things have started to come to light.

I, for one, don't associate with Belial anymore. His intentions were not in my best interest at all. Unfortunately, I've realized there are other demons like him approaching. I intend to do a MAJOR banishing and cleansing today.

I was also able to confirm my original, personal intuition that the Joseph guarding me is not St. Joseph.

Naturally, the next initiations won't include either Belial or St. Joseph.

I also ended a 10+ year old friendship yesterday night. I realize I'm being guided to trim the fat and get my life ready for new things to come.

The only spirits I can trust right now are my spirit family, archangel Michael and Metatron, and Lucifer. Well, I trust Odin too.

I shall continue to keep a record of my experience pathworking.

[chestofoddities]

NOT WORKING WITH BELIAL ANYMORE, I FOUND OUT THE TRUTH. FUCK YOU DUNG KING.

[chestofoddities]

Lunar Initiation I, with Archangel Gabriel (April 28, 2025)

To formally start my pathworking, I delivered myself into this first Lunar initiation with Archangel Gabriel.

Conditions for the initiation: first planetary moon hour of Monday, on a New Supermoon night.

Tools: sacrifice, white candle, cup with water, grimoire.

I will proceed to redact my experience in this initiation:

St. Michael. I feel you're watching from afar. If you wish to observe, you're free to do so.

Belial, St. Joseph, St. Gabriel, Luna. Here I come.

"On this new moon night, I come before thee, Luna, and my guardian spirits, ready to start my path in the Lunar sphere."

(I proceed to invoke my 4 spirit parents in their corresponding cardinal direction)

(I take the candle into my right hand and with my left index finger, I trace a circle of both sacred and black fire around me)

"Before you, patron of mine, lord of the north, I make myself present with a sacrifice, as St. Joseph watches over. May he be the monolith that watches over this ceremony. Austere pillar, watch over the conditions of this passage so they may be the right ones."

"Now I invoke you, grandiose moon! Here, your dark face shows itself, and I see myself chained to you with fear and insecurity. Today, I present a sacrifice before you. I shall place my ego at the altar and ask the holy Archangel Gabriel to accept this self-sacrifice. At the gate of Luna, I let my ego surrender before the path's and your glory."

"And it shall be my patron, Belial, who picks it up as payment."

(I proceed to present my sacrifice)

Belial, St. Joseph, please accept this sacrifice. It's the most sincere and selfless thing I can offer right now. Please don't reject me, grandiose moon. Embrace me in your shadow, embrace me.

Archangel Gabriel Invocation

(Standing)

"Holy angel Gabriel, I invoke you in my life and my path! Show me the path to light, and may this crescent path guide me to fulfillment and grandeur of the universe, but also of my evolving self."

"Holy Archangel, prepare me for manifestation! I kneel before you and beg of you:"

(Kneeling)

"Holy angel, holy lunar being, I deliver myself into the mysteries of thy kingdom. From shadow to light, pour your lunar water into my cup. Purify me from all evil and pride.

In this somber phase, I shall be my shadow. I shall see it, and trust with my eyes closed that you will trace the best path for me under the divine. And that it may guide me to spiritual evolution.

Blessed being consecrated in mercy, I understand your role as a guide in this ceremony, and in this path leading to the altar of vanguard.

Holy Archangel Gabriel, manifest yourself in my life!

And I shall open my eyes to your sacred mercy."

(I proceed to drink the water in the cup)

Meditation & Deliverance

(I see Archangel Gabriel standing before me in the eye of my mind. He's wearing a white robe flowing in divinity. His wings are somewhere between pink and yellow. His hair is something akin to a very curly, blonde bob. His face is fairly feminine, and he gazes at me with mercy.)

Holy Archangel Gabriel, I have something to give you. Hereby I deliver this sacred heart, burning in fire, that has been given to me. I do not understand what it is. I don't understand, I don't know what its purpose is, but I was told I was to deliver this to (all of) you. You're the chosen messenger, so I give it to you, for you to make use of it as it shall be done. It's not my duty to understand; it simply is to do it. So please, Gabriel, accept this heart.

(I see the light and fire of the heart, and Gabriel saves it in his chest, holding it with love.)

There is something I wish to ask of you.

"You may tell me, love."

(I petition Archangel Gabriel)

"I shall see. God's ways are mysterious. But I shall accept your petition. Today you step into the dark sphere of Luna. You see through the black eye, and you see shadows, you see chains, but you have delivered the darkest shadow before me.

Twilight is dark, as well as the night, but the night reveals great mysteries, and I am in charge of illuminating that life, that phase, with the moon's various faces. I repeat myself, today you step into the darkest face, and it's from within this phase that you decide to manifest your wish and petition.

You've done well, my son. You've done well. Humbly offer yourself, and we shall listen to you.

This is the beginning of your path. Maybe you don't understand this commitment, but you understand the importance of this step. Once you initiate, you can hardly step back.

Tell me, do you wish to evolve, do you wish to continue?

Yes, holy Archangel Gabriel. Please accept me and guide me through this lunar phase. Guide me through this darkness and light.

Then I shall oblige. I shall guide you with the greatest stars, with the light that manifests and reveals the dark and the light.

I am to go back now. I shall deliver what you've given me.

You've done well, my son."

(Gabriel leaves, but some of his energy remains in my space)

Farewell to Archangel Gabriel

"Holy being of life, oh, Archangel Gabriel. I thank you for illuminating my path and for initiating me into the lunar mysteries. May your teachings shape and grant me purpose.

Holy being of light, you're free to go back to the place you come from." (To my spirits)

As for Belial and Saint Joseph, I thank you for being present at the ceremony. The same goes for St. Michael for supervising everything.

Now I shall pledge allegiance:

"There's no turning back. May this initiation guide me to my destiny."

(I close the circle and thank my guides)

Archangel Michael message

After thanking my guides, Archangel Michael tells me he would like a word with me.

You've completed the first stage of the lunar initiation. Do you understand what you've done?

I may not fully understand it, but my being understands it's an important and necessary step. I understand it's a commitment, and that I'm burning bridges that are no longer needed by doing so.

How do you feel?

I feel uncertain, but confident; confident that beings of light guide me.

Watch your step in the shadows. Watch the wings that shield you. Watch the reasons by which you make certain alliances. You shall see the light one day. When you reach Sol, my revelation will be scorching. You must be ready by then. If you're not, you might burn. And there will be no shadow to hide in, for the sun shines over everything, and you have delivered your shadow to the moon, at least what you were able to.

That would be all, I dismiss you. Go to bed.

Thank you, holy archangel Michael.

Automatic writing with King Belial (April 26, 2025)

(As I recite my celebration with Belial, I see a coyote approach me in a darkening desert. He urges me to follow him. When I abide, he tells me the lord (Belial) wishes to challenge me. I ask if he's testing my faith, and he confirms my suspicion).

(This is the dark desert of the soul).

(The coyote guides me through a downhill of sand to a place where I see myself weakened, unable to move, vulnerable and helpless).

You are scorn. You are nothing right now. Renounce your flaws and your burdens, or you shall never be free. If you seek my patronage you must prove yourself. Renounce yourself, do it willingly or I will force the "tower moment". I will destroy your already cracking, feeble foundation.

Why do you test me?

All worthy men should prove themselves.

Belial, patron of mine, I'm lost

Eager is the eagle that freefalls, eager is the fool that waits to catch it senseless. Don't be stupid. You are more than an idiot waiting to catch something you can't understand. I lay the cards before you so you reveal their mystery, or rather, their truth. I dislike mysteries in the way angels preach them and abide by. Renounce all hope, if you wish to be reborn and find the truth to your being and path.

Will you accept my sacrifice tomorrow?

I accept no unworthy sacrifices. I only accept worthlessness itself as a sacrifice. You are worthless, and if you offer yourself, I shall accept the sacrifice into this patronage I offer. Prove yourself, master of pain. That, you have learned well; the ways of suffering, but you are no victim, and the only affliction you suffer from now is yourself and your lack of dedication and motivation.

Hear me here and now you master of blasphemous pain. Your inexperience insults me, but I take no personal offense. You are dedicated, but you are lost, for you have entered the black desert of the soul. You've seen yourself... What will you do?

(I envision Belial taking a hit of his cigarette).

Abandon all hope, abandon all (self) mercy, or abandon yourself. Unless... You know what to let go of. This sacrifice of yours, is it worthy?

I think so... Yes. Yes, it is. It's the best I can offer right now.

Then it shall be accepted, but once you deliver it, there's no turning back. I've only ever lied to you out of love (he mocks, almost cackling briefly). You know that, don't you? You know what I think and how I've felt. I've told you, I take no offense, but do not dismiss my revelations out of being a helpless, naïve wuss.

What would you like me to do?

(I see his eyes staring at me in a piercing manner).

To not be a wuss. I wouldn't call you a coward, no, you're quite brave when you want something. Just like Lucifer. But there's no Lucifer and (my name) right now, there's only you and I, Great king of sorrow, master of the hidden door of (unintelligible). Deliver, deliver what you promise and I shall recognize you.

(He finishes smoking and throws the cigarette butt to the ground to step on it).

This has been a much necessary conversation (he says as he vanishes).

[chestofoddities]

People liking you doesn't mean they respect you.

[chestofoddities]

Finished writing the script for the lunar initiation this Sunday night. Will let you all know how it goes...

[chestofoddities]

Automatic writing with Odin (April 23, 2025)

I see that you're afflicted, that you're hurting, but you don't even know it.

(Odin touches my core with his staff).

Every warrior hurts; they just fight their battle with honor and dignity. Suddenly, a day comes when they grow tired and weary, and they give in to their need to rest. They hope to be able to battle forever without tire, glorious. So is the hope of my kind. But you understand, don't you? There is no glorious fight without pain. Pain makes you, it shifts things, it transforms you. There are different kinds of pain; some lead to suffering, others lead to transformation. You're blessed with the mark of the wolf, or as you call it, "the werewolf curse". This is a sign of power and strength, for as intense as it can be as a mental calamity, it transforms your dignity into one that is strong and resilient. That is the way of the spirit. As you walk through these tests and challenges, remember to be loyal and stay true to yourself. That's why I've sent Geri and Freki; to watch over you, to keep you safe, but also to keep you on your toes. I have not initiated you into any mystery, like the other entities around you have. No, I have initiated you into yourself. I want to see you transform, to turn into this beast, and I want to see you dominate it with grace. Knowledge is readily available when presenting a sacrifice. Tree of life, universe; whatever you wanna call it, this is both a playground and a battlefield for your soul. Your spirit is experienced, but you dear, are not. You are marked, but you're not cursed. I am interested in how you'll come out of this. I wish to know, I wish to see how you evolve.

How do the sacrifices work?

A sacrifice is everything that your ego rejects. It can be charity, it can be time, it can be love, or it can be death. I see you're being asked for a sacrifice already. Do it, and report to me. Learn the runes, do not neglect this task. The way of wisdom is one plagued with mysteries and contradictions. A self-sacrifice to myself... don't you see that's exactly what you're doing? Mirror me, and you shall learn.

You know we are similar. You go after everything you want, you are a force of action.

What about being a horse?

Well, we wouldn't want to rush into such territory, wouldn't we? If it's meant to be, it will be. That is not something you can force, but you can work your way around it, just like you're doing now. Live and contemplate, observe and learn. The way of the horse is selfless and giving. Are you certain that you're ready for that? More importantly, are you certain that's what you want? Not with that big ego, I'll tell you that. You truly are just like your (spirit) father...

Still, like I said, I'm aware you've started this transformation through this initiation. (I hear him laugh, probably at me). You fool, you absolute dung. You have no idea what you're getting yourself into. This is why I've chosen you, I wish to see where you go...

(He vanishes as if he were a shadow. I envision a cloudy, dark sky in my mind. Thunder roars afar, and I hear Sleipnir neigh as he rides the sky into oblivion).

[chestofoddities]

Automatic writing with King Belial (April 21, 2025)

I demand courage and respect from you. You have initiated your path working with angels, now you shall surrender to the forces of ruin and chaos. Let your foundation shake, let it tremble and crack as much as possible. Only what is worth shall remain.

When you reach Venus, you will be asked to take one or two paths. I hope you have the wisdom to choose the best path for you. For that you must work from the standpoint of both paths.

Why am I being made to choose?

Why should you be able to choose? Have you thought about that? The reason why matters little when you realize the importance of being able to choose. you are sought-after. Angels want your power for good; I want your power for freedom.

Is it related to how you're bound by St. Joseph?

You shall find the answer to your question in the exploration of your path. For now, know that we work together and we have shown the same level of investment in your path. We are, as others have said, business partners, only you are the matter.

What am I supposed to do?

Nothing, if you want to fail. Before you are the pieces to the game. Where shall you move the pieces to? How? More importantly, why? It matters and it doesn't matter. As high as you go, that's as far below as you can fall. Do both, as above so below. An incantation is required. Be original and pour yourself into it. Draw inspiration from others but let your heart call to me. The heart is the way of the ancient, of the beetle and the horn. I am [unintelligible].

Pour your insides out, drain your body from this accursed blood and perform the highest quality of alchemy. Incantation, celebration, permutation, invigoration, transformation. That is the way of the silent transfiguration. I want you to commune with the shadows inside of you. As you work with light, I don't want you to lose your path in the dark. Walk with us, walk with me and you shall thrive. But a blow shall be dealt, I'm talking about your ego. Bleed, bruise, hurt. Pain is the easiest way of mastery. If you do not wish to suffer, then be cautious and watch your step. I watch from the shadow, and I cast my shadow over you. You are my protégé, I shall watch over you at all times, good or bad; hurting or thriving, it makes no difference to me when you're reaching your freedom.

I am the great master of pain and transformation, lord of the necrotic will and the black sun. I am the black desert of the soul, he who reigns over sovereignty, he who cannot be ruled.

Walk my path is you wish to be like me, just remember your sacrifice.

The doors are open.
