The Adorations of Thoth

magicalrecord:

All should be pronounced with clarity and reverence. Each adoration ends with an oath of service that should not be taken lightly. During each make the sign of the eternal ankh, standing straight, legs together, fingers laced, thumbs pointing downwards, placed against the chest with elbows pointing out and up.

The first is to be done in the morning, shortly before waking, and before speaking to anyone that day.


I arise with the Word.

Hail Thoth! He who stands in his splendor at the prow, with Ra at the helm.

Pen in his hand, tablet at the ready, imbued with all creation.

I am thy writing pallet, oh Thoth, and I have brought unto thee, thine ink jar.

The second is to be done at the conclusion of the day’s work, before the evening meal.


I exhale the Word.

Hail Thoth! He who walks in splendor as he returns to the earth and greets Atum.

Scroll in his hand, unrolled and at the ready, proclaiming all creation.

I am thy book, oh Thoth, I have brought unto thee, thine lantern.


The third is to be performed shortly before preparing for sleep.


I expire with a Word.

Hail Thoth! He who gazes into the void and adores Nuit in all her beauty.

Seeing glass in his hand, he scrys upon all the worlds.

I am thy psychonaut, oh Thoth, and I carry thy banner into the dreaming.
