Occult Nation / Magical Network

Recently,I have translated English Grimoires to Japanese on my homepage.

http://yoshinosan.web.fc2.com/magick/

The Goetia and Grimoirium Verum were translated.Now,I'm translating Greater Key of Solomon.

 Recenrly I have been interested in Practical Magick(contain Chaos Magick).So I have read those books mainly.

"Mysteria Magica" by Osborne Phillips and Melita Denning
 This book explains interesting tradition by me.Especially their rituals used Greece and Latin language than Hebrew which is usually used by many order.

"Hands-on Chaos Magic" by Andrieh Vitimus
 A good practical manual for chaos magic.Though a few practices,such as energy ball exercise,require a partner.
 The author's website(have forum) is http://www.andriehvitimus.com/

"Kybalion" by three initiates
 I'm slightly doubt to historical accuracy of Helmeticism,but this book well explains "the law".

"Stealing the Fire from Heaven" by Stephen Mace
 Truly awesome book...good explans A.O.Spere's mehtods(Spere's books weren't easily understanding).
 A free style magician must have it.The book is thin but has dense infomations.

"The Apophenion" by Peter J.Carroll
 Difficult book...perhaps the reader should familiarize himself with mathematics and physics before read this book.
 I have many respect Pete,but I'm more interested in practical rather than innovative theories.

 Now,I'm reading "Manifesting Prosperity" edited by Taylor Ellwood.I love money

Recently I have read many Enochian books and Wicca books(and others).

ENOCHIAN

 Excellent work! Dee's real enochian invocation angels formula.

"Enochian World of Aleister Crowley: Enochian Sex Magick" by  Aleister Crowley,Lon and Hyatt

 Good introduction book for Enochian.not  only sex magick.

Awesome book.but perhaps it's difficult for practicing for me.especially,the author MUST require making all tools.

Book's illustrations are cheep.because those are author's hand writings.

I'm now reading Three Books of Occult Philosophy by Agrippa.

 I have finished reading book "Secret of Magic"(Jogn R King IV a.k.a Imperial Arts) via Lulu.com http://www.lulu.com/content/2185687

Secrets Of The Magickal Grimoires: The Classical Texts Of Magick Deciphered by Aaron Leitch

The Sacred Magic of the Angels by David Goddard

I have been learning English recently.However, the verbs are not remembered easily.

Also,I can't tell apart among "Present progressive", "Present perfect", and "Past form".

As Magcik,I'm reading PDF of "Three books of Occult Philosophy" by Henry Cornelius Agrippa.

I had been interested 16centrly 's magician recently.

I finished reading "High Magic II" by Fracter U.D. and "My Life With the Spirits" by Lon Milo Duquette.

"High Magic II"

This book is excellent.Though,I think that rather boring than former book "High Magic".

Frater U.D. explain many aspect of magical traditions(such as Egyptian Magic,Shamanism,Kabarrah,and so on).

But It's insufficient and few portion of practice.

Good book.but not best book.

"My Life With the Spirits"

Lon's biography book.He narrate many his experience of Evoke,Invoke and Exorcism with humor.

I like his style and recommend this book for anyone evocation magician.

I have an order  "Secret of Magic"(Jogn R King IV a.k.a Imperial Arts) via Lulu.com http://www.lulu.com/content/2185687

The book will arrive in Japan in a month.

Today,Astral Projection Progrum done.

A 90 day(actually 91 day) struggle is over.

Though,I can't do free projection yet.

At least,I feel subtle energy of mine,and can control it.

I'll try more practive.

I bought book "Angel Magic: The Ancient Art of Summoning & Communicating With Angelic Beings" by Geoffey James.

This book contain historical angel magic rather than "How to" book.

Though ,the book has many appndix,which contain first introduction of angelic sigil for English readers.

I'm interested the book,especially biography of John Dee.

Today,this book arrived from amazon.jp.

I read this book only a little. This book contain many aspect.such as kabarrah,egypt,mirror,combat magic,folk magic,magic order,and so on.

I like author's pragmatic attitude.dogmatist tend to religion rather than magic.(but it is difficult to separete both).

I bought this book a month ago.

Today,I finished reading it.

As first impression,I'm boring.But actually this book is rather interesting.

I have been intersted about "Angel magic" recently,So I don't evoke demons(ancient gods).

Mastaring Astral Projection(M.A.P.)is still progress.

 I have attained 70 days.Today,I move out conscious from physical body.Though,it is very short time.

I experienced first astral trip at night yesterday.I tried exercise balloon imaging method again and again.

Suddenly,I realized I am out of body.

It is very short time and It is completely different world from this material world.

Though,It is obviously experienced.

Achieve!

I felt my subtle energy body.

This week's method was actual out of body imaging.but I can't do success yet.

The way is too distance...

Recently,I have been interested in summoning archangels.

On before sunday,I did evocation archangel michael with using sigil from Grimore of Armadel.

I want to physical manifestation of him,but can't appeard.

Though I felt exist my friend Michael. His love to me.

The half of program achieved.

Though I can't projection yet.

However, I have the feeling in which it can slip out the body.

And the nightly dream become more clear.

Btw,recentry,I study hard English.This language is very difficult for the many Japanese.

Though I want to more speaking you about general magic topics.

Hi! I'm bought two books about Goetia evocation.

1.The Book of Solomon's Magick (Caroll Runyon)

2.The Goetia of Dr Rudd (Stephen Skinner and David Rankine )

Runyon's book is rather boring.It seemed to be difficult to make black mirror.

Skinner's book is deep infomation about Goetia.

I will try Goeita evocation in the course of time.

Also,I practice Astral Projection Progrum achived 30 days...

Recently,I have been began Misogi "禊".

This is Japanese traditional method to spiritual development.

It is oldest and most famous in Japan.A lot of  Shintoist , Shugensha and Buddist practiced.

This is purification of cold water.Like baptism by forerunner John in Jew.

In general, practitioner are beaten to the waterfall. But it is rather  time-consuming.

Therefore,I bathe in water about 30 times in the bathroom in my house .

Whenever water is bathed in, I cast purify spell.

"祓えたまえ、清めたまえ"  Harae Tamae, Kiyome Tamae.

( be lustrate it ,be purifying it).

Also,I have been still practicing Astral Projection Program by Robert's book.

Today,I achieve 22days.By this method,Mainly,I practice Chakra development.

 Recently,I have been interesting in Onmyoudou(Japanese tradithonal magic).

 It is about Japanese Daoism(Taoism).(But many additional tradition such as Buddisum,Shintoism,Shugendou,and so on).

 Therefore,I began to study Chinese language.

 Because of I must read to many old Daoism texts.

 Also,I am learning Rikujin(六壬).This is divination of ancient Onmyoudou used.

 Recently,I bought book "Mastering Astral Projection: 90-day Guide To Out-of-body Experience"( Robert Bruce).

 His former book"Astral Dynamics" is good too.

I am doing the exercise of the fifth day now.

Recently,I have reading " Familiar Spirits A Practical Guide for Witches & Magicians" (Donald Tyson).

Now,I have reading about half of book.

His original summon method "Power Glyph" is quite interesting.

I feel the influence of "Chaos Magick" a little.

Perhaps,I will try this method.

Today ,I finished reading this book.

This book is very interesting.A lot of "Formura" is introduced from ancient Egypt and a Greek papyrus.

The author was anxious about  a little inclined to "Seth/Typhon" .

Though,instructive book certain.Is Practice too hard?(dificult spelling).

These days,I bought book" Spirit Allies: Meet Your Team from the Other Side"(Christopher Penczak ).

This book is bit "New Ages" inclined rather than magick.Recently, I am interested in the summons magic.

Today,I finished reading "Ganeration Hex". An excellent book.Though,I was not interested a little.

Next, the following books are read.

"Hermetic Magic: The Postmodern Magical Papyrus of Abaris"(Stephen Edred Flowers)

I like philosophy and magic in ancient Greece. This book reads a little and is also interesting.
