Since I am using tumblr for my dream journal why not take it one step further and use it for my magick working journal as well?
9/23
Realized that my muse needs a place to sit and join me for meditation and ritual. I will lay out my black padded circle for her.
Decided during meditation today to work on breathing and visualization. Using four-fold breaths, I imagined roman numerals floating just in front of my forehead. Burning blue on the inhale, burning red on the exhale. I was able to keep this going for some time but realized that it prevented me from relaxing my mind enough to receive visions.
When I stopped counting I was immediately visited by Baphomat. I was sitting beside him around a fire. He kept trying to give me something and eventually I was able to reach out and take it. It was a book which at the same time was a yellow flower.
I am taking this as him advising me to learn more about the natural world. There may be more to it.
Finished with banishing.
