Bassan - phoenix demon

One of my dearest friends has transliterated one curious page in a Heptameron manuscript codex (picture not featured) with relevant infernal seats, ranks and names of corresponding demonic hierarchies.

The one that I decided to tackle on was under this category. 

Seats: Floriget Direction: West Chief demon: Paymon Rank: Seniors of 15th legion 15th legion: Bassan, Calce, Calcos, Cyray, Furcas.... (etc) The procedure began at the dawn of the night invoking Bassan. The journal entry: ‘Red-yellow bird head, firey body which reminds one of a phoenix. To the question when he is summoned the scryer reports a Dark moon. He commands good health to whoever asks him of it. He likes Red gem beads (stones), water.’

As a result I’ve ordered a few red torquoise stones, hopefully getting to address him for my specific medical needs later this month.

Hey about your glitchcraft notes, I can understand why pop culture magick can leave a bad taste in one's mouth. Working with egregores and spells in pop culture can feel overwhelming because there is just so much jargon and hype like, you have literally so many overpowered characters and Gods, it feels like trying to eat a processed sugar coated breakfast everyday. I feel like traditional magic is much more formal and "cleaner" because it's more serious and acc makes sense.

Yeah. I’m guessing you took a look at my journal? On my acrians website. ^^; I just generally do not want pop culture outside of this blog attached to my name. That’s why I formed the “Olive Brimstone” Alias, because “Acrians Locket” my true magickal name can easily be traced back to me, and in general, while I do have somewhat of a “respect’ for popculture magick, do to Army of Wax, and it’s lectures, I just don’t want that shit attached to my name you know? The only author I’ve really seen write about it publically and write “grimoires” though I’d hardly consider his books “grimoires” is “Taylor Ellwood” and having purchased copies of his work, I read them, and as with all his work, didn’t feel like I really “learned anything” from the purchase. 

My spirits don’t really like Ellwood, which has steered me away form him. I used to talk to him, we used to be associates under my real name, even facebook friends before I deleted my facebook do to loathing the app, so I won’t say that he’s a bad man he’s verr bright, and some of his work is “interesting” enough but outside of E.A Koetting, S.Conolly, and Orlee Stewart (who some people such as V.K Jehanum who I have my own issues with- take issue with her because she takes down videos criticizing her) I don’t tend to trust most “occult influencers” as I shouldn’t and the only reason I trust E.A Koetting despite seeing him as someone with a brand, and trying to often sell you something and that something being often expensive (which isn’t his fault that’s how it often is in the occult world and  he does this for a living), who’s work I purchased finding it very hit or miss, is because Satan and my other demons defended him avidly to me, which they haven’t done for other occultists, and I still sometimes frequent his BALG forum, where the people be it misled in my opinion and often beginners to intermediate say for the mods, do have interesting things to say, and the right spirit about them.

So yeah Ellwood’s work is all your gona find published about pop culture systems, which is really a shame. I always say and feel free to parot this, that tumblr, reddit, tick tock, facebook, and the like are terrible terrible terrible places to learn about magick! I have seen so many idiots on this platform it’s ridiculous. Even the blogs that are supposed to be truth speakers are idiots. (This isn’t magick? are total hacks and you can quote me on that). 

Glitchcraft is a very interesting subject. It’s a subject I’m not afraid to talk about on this blog because of the “Olive Brimstone” alias I’ve constructed! I created “Olive Brimstone” to talk about, Pop culture magick and reality shifting. That’s mainly it. While my demons (of the Goetia) have mainly steered me away from reality shifting, I plan to return to it, and maybe even publish my diary on it! Mixed with a few philosophical essays and information that I’ve gathered.

I’m not new to self publishing I have two books out under a seperate, seperate pen name, and two more books coming out under my real name fairly soon.

I have had really really bad experiences with pop culture magick. Back when I was insane (which you can read about in my journal but why would you that thing is so fucking thick to read from start to finish-) but I have “done it’ so to speak.

I have a distinct lack of respect for a good deal of otherkin and in general I don’t think one can be based off pop culture magick alone and if you start working with gods, demons and spirits, and you are otherkin? They’ll snap you out of that real quick, especially if you choose to work with pop culture spirits. 

You: I’m Kaneki

Kaneki: No your fuking not

Still I might talk about it on this blog. I implore you as I do all witches, to use the “glitchcraft” hashtag. It was coined by my good friend Steller.Chaos who you can find on TickTock. Which again, terrible terrible place to learn magick! Popculture magick suffers because online and tumblr and the like is the only real place to learn about it! Which was my original point that I lost do to my rambling. I would suggest be skeptical, and proceed with caution, but if you think you can handle it, do so but do so with care. Good luck to you and everyone on their glitchcraft journey.

From the first time I ever saw a grimoire with a raised cover design like this I’ve wanted to make one! <3  This is my first try though.  I have gotten a bit better since, and really should do more.  I make blank journals with raised designs for folks, but also sometimes printed out grimoires too.  I had to do it in leather of course, but vegan “leather” is also possible.  The only thing is, it takes a few hours to do half decently well.  Also, you can’t do a design any more detailed than this Astaroth seal.  The book shown in the photo is 8.5X11″ to give an idea of perspective and size.  I have also done some custom ones for folks, which fortunately were a less complex design.  More detailed ones can be done, but then they aren’t raised nearly as much.

Aned - rat demon

I’ve gotten to extend my practice with the spirits of Fasciculus rerum geomanticarum, XV century grimoire. Here’s a rather disturbing record in my journal.

Demons can often be unapproachable, however once offered a bargain they are quite formidable for variety of workings. The choice at the waxing moon is Aned.

At the dawn of night I and my scryer part into a meditation state. I omit the details of the procedure used to contact the demon. The record: ‘The demon dismisses any interrogation and rather quickly tries to belittle any further attempts at it. The appearance is that of a giant human-sized rat with fur comparable to that of a wolf, a rat standing on its two feet with shining red eyes. His domain is shown to be in the deep forest in a cave, where he is full of bags of money and gold.’
