Recollection Gris Gris
This was a recent working I performed for a friend who sought to remember his memories from the distant past. He wished to remember very specific situations, but as I told the witch who requested this post, it can be used more generally to return flashes of memories from previous lives – once the flashes come, they can be explored and recollected in great detail – just as all other memories. This will act as the spark that sets memory in motion.
You’ll Need:
- Sulphur
- Salt
- Graveyard Dirt
- Sacred Fire
- Chalk/Paint
- Black Fabric (cut into a 6×6 in. or 8×8 in. square)
On the fabric, draw or paint this sigil
(ignoring the bottom, accessory sigil – as it is specific to the original
working):In the “circle”
that surrounds the eye, pour enough sulphur to cover, patting and rounding it
to match the shape of the oval. Over the sulphur pour a heaping pinch of salt to the center. This will serve as the “bed” for the graveyard dirt – which should be correctly collected and paid for at the Gates. Take roughly a
quarter-sized clod and place it in the center – this will serve as the heart of the matter, the Dead, the Past, etc. Place the assemblage on a
fire-safe, flat dish and with a dropper or other precision implement, lightly
and carefully saturate the dirt with the Sacred Fire and light – this is the spark, the fire returned to Death in such a way that life may recall what has been lost to time, to the Earth.As it burns, read the following incantation –
that is presented phonetically, for ease (alternately, this can be read with its burial):SAH-rem SAH-tem
TORE-in la-TOCK
SAH-resh she-AH-lem
Mar-TAY-nyuh la-ROSH
VEN-ga – VEN-ga
See-AH-tem
Gather the corners and tie into a bag. Bury in
a the cemetery from whence the dirt came – near the same spot if possible.
As is fitting, on this October the 2nd, 101st birthday of Jack Whiteside Parsons, I have completed building my rocket to be used in magical ritual.
