""You can't. Nobody can.""
Did you take him to mean that it was impossible or that it was only possible for NEMO?

The former; except, in a casual conversation, "nobody" isn't an absolute. Obviously one can do this, but it takes an exceptional effort and athletic training
In practice, the point is: Yeah, that's a tough one and entirely unnecessary.
-
Jim - thanks for posting those intructions. In which direction do you draw your 5th hexagram?
student2012 - yes it sucks. I have discovered the witchhunting/burning mentality is still very much alive in seemingly rational and intelligent people - it feeds off atavistic fears.

"Jim - thanks for posting those intructions. In which direction do you draw your 5th hexagram? "
The direction where the planet is located in the actual sky at that exact moment.
-
Ok, that explains a lot. I've read conflicting instructions that say draw the planetary hexagram in the four quarters OR face the direction of the sky where the planet is located and draw a single hexagram. See for example:
www.thelemapedia.org/index.php/Greater_Ritual_of_the_Hexagram
Liber O doesn't say anything on this point in the Greater Hexagram section so this detail constitutes another blind.
-
I also wanted to point out that.. in the equinox. it shows exactly how to do this.. and you can find the evocation of the great spirit TAPHTHARTHARATH
the website is www.the-equinox.org/vol1/no3/eqi03010i.htmlFor it is the method of science and the aim of religion that we have as thelemites and companions alike, and a vast mixed company that associate with us for it is this that we compound our skills and fine tune them.
It says from this journal of science
" Soror S.S.D.D. altered Frater I.A.'s ritual, making the operation to" "form a link between Thoth and the Magus. This is absurd; the correct way" "is as here given, in which the link is formed between the Spirit and the" "Magus."
CONSIDERATIONS. To be performed on the day and in the hour of Mercury: the Evocation itself commencing in the magical hour of Tafrac, under the dominion of the Great Angel of Mercury HB:Lamed HB:Aleph HB:Peh HB:Resh . On Wednesday, May 13, 1896, this hour Tafrac occurs between 8h. 32' P.M. and 9h. 16', when Mercury is in 17ø Gemini on the cusp of seventh house slightly to South of due West. Moon going to Mars {sic should be Ù} with Mercury 14ø Gemini Mercury to Ù Neptune, Mercury 150ø Saturn.1 " "OF THE FORM OF THE CIRCLE TO BE EMPLOYED." {Illustration on page 171 described: "DIAGRAM 59. The Circle of Art." 1 WEH NOTE: This data contains typographic errors from the first edition. This is a duodecagram (twelve sided regular figure). It is oriented with a vertex to top and all diagonal chords are drawn, except those which would cross the exact center of the figure. Each vertex surmounts a small ring-bordered disk, such that the portion under the doudecagram is not visible. The small ring at top has "S", that at bottom "N", that at right "W" and that at left "E" ___ these letters are oriented so that they would be read correctly from the perspective of a person standing at the center of the figure and looking to each vertex in turn. There are several letters marking positions within the figure, all oriented with top parallel to the E-SE line and bottom toward the W-NW line. In a rectangle depending from the center of the E-SE chord, the letter "C"; in a rectangle depending from the center of the N-SW chord, the letter "D"; in two circles at the intersections of the S-NE chord with the W-SE and E-NW chords, "E"; symmetrically to either side of the N-SE and E-SW chord intersection, parallel to the S-NE chord, two circles with "G"; in the center of the figure, a circumscribed equilateral triangle, base parallel to the N-SW chord, with "F" inside. There is a tangent, large ringed circle outside at the NE vertex, point of tangency obscured by the smaller ringed circle of that vertex. There is an equilateral triangle circumscribed within, base parallel to the tangent afore mentioned. There is an "A" within the apex of this triangle, top to apex direction."
Now, heres the part that Jim pointed out.. which i found to be right on.
"Earth, by and in the Divine Names Adonai Ha Aretz, Adonai Melekh Namen, and in the name of Aurial, Great Archangel of Earth, that every evil and impure spirit now depart hence immediately. [Circumambulates, saying:] Stoop not down unto the darkly splendid world, wherein lieth continually a faithless depth, and Hades wrapt in gloom, delighting in unintelligible images, precipitous, winding, a black ever-rolling abyss, ever espousing a body unluminous, formless and void. [Making invoking pentagram.]
That he may in no wise move his place or call for aid upon his Gods; or hear another voice save mine or my companions', or see another path before him than the one unto this place. [Sigil is placed outside the circle by the assistant Magus of Art.] And the reason of this my working is, that I seek to obtain from that spirit Taphthartharath the knowledge of the realm of Kokab, and to this end I implore the divine assistance in the names of Elohim Tzebaoth, Thoth, Metatron, Raphael, Michael, Beni Elohim, Tiriel."
To that effect. I know Crowley was linking the working in a Thoth like manner, but you can get an essence of how the planetary invocations work..

With making the 5 hexagrams as Jim Said, I've seen an OTO lodge in the midwest do the following:
- Basic Rituals
You will be using the Greater Invoking Ritual of the Hexagram for Jupiter. The ritual should be performed on a the day of Jupiter (Thursday) during the hour of Jupiter if possible.
- Preparing the Temple
As with a love spell, you do not need a containment structure so the circle alone will suffice. It should be blue, and you can also trace a square within it in purple. If you are casting the spell with some idea of what your source of funds will be, carry on your person a magical link that represents that source. For example, if the goal is a higher-paying job carry a copy of your resume and make sure that it matches any resumes you will sending to prospective employers. If you really have no idea, then just center the spell on yourself and don't use a link.
I. Opening and II. The Preliminary Invocation
These are the same as in the other two rituals.
III. The Conjuration
Perform the Greater Invoking Ritual of the Hexagram for Jupiter. As you conclude with "Let the divine light descend!", visualize a column of purple light descending into the circle and enveloping you. You then begin to conjure the Spirit of Jupiter. Vibrate the capitalized words. Four is the number of Jupiter, so the names are vibrated four times.
EL, EL, EL, EL (like it looks). Come unto me, God in CHESED (kheh-SED), the sphere of TZEDEQ (tzeh-DEK). Send unto me TZADKIEL(tzahd-kee-EL), that great Archangel of thine, that he may answer my behest.
Pause until the presence of El is perceived. If you don't feel anything or see anything, wait three minutes or so before continuing.
TZADKIEL, TZADKIEL, TZADKIEL, TZADKIEL (tzahd-kee-EL). Come unto me, great and mighty Archangel of CHESED (kheh-SED), the sphere of TZEDEQ (tzeh-DEK), by the name of the great god EL. Send unto me JOPHIEL (joh-fee-EL), that great intelligence of thine, that he may answer my behest.
Pause until the presence of Tzadkiel is perceived. If you don't feel anything or see anything, wait three minutes or so before continuing.
JOPHIEL, JOPHIEL, JOPHIEL, JOPHIEL (joh-fee-EL). Come unto me, thou bright intelligence of TZEDEQ (tzeh-DEK), and answer my behest. In the name of TZADKIEL (tzahd-kee-EL) thy lord, compel the spirit HISMAEL (his-may-EL) who is under thy dominion to manifest within this Circle of Art.
Pause until the presence of Jophiel is perceived. If you don't feel anything or see anything, wait three minutes or so before continuing.
HISMAEL, HISMAEL, HISMAEL, HISMAEL (his-may-EL). Come unto me, mighty spirit of TZEDEQ (tzeh-DEK), and make manifest my behest. In the name of JOPHIEL (joh-fee-EL) thy lord, come forth within this Circle of Art that thou mayst wield the powers of the path of KAPH(KAHF), the path of the planet Jupiter.
Pause until the presence of Hismael is perceived. If you don't feel anything or see anything, wait three minutes or so before continuing.
At this point you deliver the charge to the spirit. Address it to Hismael. This is what you want the spirit to do. You need to write this part yourself, because it's very personal. You should state what you want simply so that the spirit can't twist your words around. With a money spell it is good to keep in mind that a lot of people have family members with assets and things like life insurance so that a tragedy like a death in the family could result in riches. It is usually wise to craft the charge so that the spirit is bound to act without causing bodily harm to yourself or others. After all, it would also be a pretty bad outcome to be permanently disabled in a car accident but wind up with a million dollar lawsuit settlement - but you would have your money.
After the charge, pause for a moment before closing the temple.
IV. Closing
The License to Depart should be revised as follows.
O thou EL and thy ministers TZADKIEL (tzahd-kee-EL), JOPHIEL (joh-fee-EL), and HISMAEL (his-may-EL), because thou hast diligently answered unto my demands, and hast been very ready and willing to come at my call, I do here license thee to depart unto thy proper place; without causing harm or danger unto man or beast. I charge thee to withdraw peaceably and quietly, and peace be ever continued between us. So mote it be!
Pause for a moment to give the spirits time to depart. Visualize the purple light being absorbed into yourself.
The rest of the Closing is the same. You're done.
They used this from a blog journal called <a href="http://ananael.blogspot.com/"> Augoeides</a>
I've done the equinox way, (that cost a lot of money) and i've done this version as well. they both have success..
I hope this all helps

I don't think "of course" at all.
These rituals are a little excessive for my taste, but not much. (Crowley, being at root a poet, did want to write this partially as a literary piece and to use the power of rhyming and rhythmic patterns for his invocations.) But, in any case, I don't consider these necessarily excessive for a major working.
-
Very helpful content and references Kingsolomon. The Equinox references are nice because I like to use the books rather than internet for this kind of material if I can, but it helps to know where to look. Mostly ATM I just want to experience the energies and get better at the rituals (hopefully the correct ones) rather than ask spirits for stuff, although sometimes familiars come calling anyway. Its like a nice clean 'sober high', each planet different in its content and arrival. I suspect one could get addicted to it...

Some questions:
-
Maybe my inability to read Hebrew is the problem, but where are the table of correspondence listing the names for El, Tzadkiel and Sakhiel in 777?
-
Regarding the instructions given, what distinguishes it as a specifically Path 21/Kaph invoking as opposed to a Jupiter invoking?
-
Lastly, to banish the effect of the Path 21/Kaph invoking, do you simply do the same names as before but trace a banishing Jupiter hexagram?
-
Based on your experience, are there any pitfalls I should be aware of with the Path 21 invoking?
-
Reading the above OTO ritual, I note they bid the Jupiter Spirit license to depart after stating their request. Is this necessary? Should one always banish the invoked energy within the same operation or let it be and end the ceremony with the LBRP?

Columns V & XCIX ...Sakhiel, AFAIK, does not appear in 777.

"Some questions:

[Ed: Woops -- I misread Sakhiel for what I expected to see there, so leaving this even though it's already been answered properly above, and even though mine has more info than was requested.]
You'll find the Names, along row 4, in col. V, XCIX, C, and VI. Col. V is in Hebrew only, without transliteration, so you would need to be able to read Hebrew writing. I don't remember if 776 1/2 includes a transliteration of that column – probably it does. On that note, I might add that the value of 776 1/2 came into sharp focus when I was looking through 777 for your answer – in 776 1/2 those particular heavily-used columns are much easier to find, and if memory serves aren't chopped up as in 777 between Spheres and Paths.
"2. Regarding the instructions given, what distinguishes it as a specifically Path 21/Kaph invoking as opposed to a Jupiter invoking?"
The 21st Path is Kaph is Jupiter. The 4th Path could have been used, which is 4 is Jupiter. You'd make a determination on whether to work the Path or Sephirah depending on the specifics of the aim of the ceremony. Practically (and off-hand), I'm not sure there'd be any difference. It raises some questions in my mind about the subjectivity of the Paths and the objectivity of the Sephiroth, and their application as such in ritual, but I'll set that aside for later.
"3. Lastly, to banish the effect of the Path 21/Kaph invoking, do you simply do the same names as before but trace a banishing Jupiter hexagram?"
Yes.
"4. Based on your experience, are there any pitfalls I should be aware of with the Path 21 invoking?"
The main pitfall in some cases might be to perform the ritual successfully, thereby stirring energies without any foundation from which to direct their resettling.
"5. Reading the above OTO ritual, I note they bid the Jupiter Spirit license to depart after stating their request. Is this necessary? Should one always banish the invoked energy within the same operation or let it be and end the ceremony with the LBRP?"
It never hurts to offer a license to depart, and is probably a good idea in most cases. The latter question is, again, dependent on the aims of the ceremony. Usually you'd banish after with the same (banishing) operation, and probably should do a LBRP at the end for good measure.

Thanks guys for the information.
So, following Jim's instructions, would Sadkhiel be the entity I give my charge to for the Path 21 invocation?
@zeph said
"The main pitfall in some cases might be to perform the ritual successfully, thereby stirring energies without any foundation from which to direct their resettling."
In the past, I definitely and inadvertently stirred up a tempest on the collective level using Liber O - the effects of which I am still experiencing 2 years later (people around me were far more disturbed than me). And I do not consider myself a magician or adept. So I see no reason why something should not happen.
Do you have any recommendations for a regime to build up the required foundation to direct the invoked energy toward my goal? Something that can be done daily for 1 - 2 weeks prior to the operation?

I'm going from memory, but I'm sure he's there. (It might be under geomantic intelligences?)

Qabalistically, there is no Jupiter separate from it's presence on the Tree of Life. That is, if it's a Jupiter expression, it's either a Chesed idea or a Kaph idea.

Suppose one consecrates a sigil or talisman, which is a precise symbolic representation of the will of the operator, prior to the invocation, in a separate operation. Then at this point in the ritual, the Magician accumulates the energy in his Body of Light, and directs it toward the sigil, maybe by tracing it with the dagger or finger, so that the energy flows from the operator into the sigil. The sigil being the first part of the link, the concentrated will and consecrated symbol, and the planetary energy being the distribution part of the link, to set it's current in motion. To me it seems the sigil might have better aim and less likely of dissipation or ambiguous or unexpected results than words. Of course the will, sigil, and planetary energy would need to created/selected with the correct correspondences for the work. In the event a spirit is evoked, it could rather be told to charge the sigil with the planetary energy, I would expect it would know what to do from there. Another experiment to try perhaps.
Another idea while learning the rituals is, why not ask the spirits if it was done right? They should be able to tell precisely and instruct the operator. This at the very least, as there are other great secrets they will tell that are not written in any books or internets.

I like your thinking Student2012..
you are willing to "test" theory and you recognize that the spirits are willing to help us.. Thus that is why they came when you called.
I ask the spirits and my holy guardian angel many things.. I recently found my HGA and the relationship has made me practically invincible. I can do anything.. But I lack certain things I rather not say.. But with his help.. Things take time to develop.. Thus all of us can be stronger than the universe.. and I dont mean to sound like Conan the Barbarian or He-Man or something. but it's true.
Invoke the planet you want student2012 and ask him if you did it right.. Sometimes they tell you anyway..
One time I was in a group working. and the spirit came.. and he Laughed at all of us.. I mean he cracked the hell up. I thought we called up Eddie Murphy or something. He still answered our request.. But he said this.. and I remember word for word.
"I've been living since the dawn of creation, and that was poorly done. Next time when i am called for service learn your enochian pronunciations. Stop laughing during ritual and Show some respect... Ok, Ok, I'll do what you ask.."
So, that was an example of sometimes you just know if youre doing it right..
Liber 777 and Liber 776 1/2 are good charts to reference to.. if you follow those charts in the books mentioned above.. you will do the ritual right..
And Do the ritual with feeling.. with all you got.. with Gravitas, and Authority.. and you will reach your goal.

Yes King Solomon, as it is written, "When the student is ready, the teacher will appear" but nowhere it says the teacher must be another human...
My work with planets has more been with the energy, Mars energy dropping down into the circle like a thick heavy column, Jupiter flowing massive rivers of energy through the hexagram, and Saturn with its effects subtle during the ritual but accumulating to a cresendo hours and days after. Soon I will experiment with direct mental and psychic connections with those intelligences to ask such questions. In the past it has been difficult, when the link is established, to maintain my wits in the heavy trance and astral maelstrom, to ask for a sigil or name, or even be coherent during the conversation. I guess thats one reason why we train the Will, to avoid being slapped about like a rag doll by these intelligences, enslaved, feasted on, or worse. I definitely feel their eternal omniscience, looking through me 'as I were naked in the garden of God', knowing more about this incarnation than I know myself, they seem infinitely intelligent. I can sense them pause and inspect the astral records, and shifting currents in the light 'above' related to my light reflecting emergence into matter. But so far I don't think the conversations were with planetary genius. I don't yet know enough about HGA, but from what I do know, it is unlikely any of my conversations were with HGA. I also have not done group work, but I really want to. Unfortunately I don't know any other Thelema practitioners nearby who I can work with. I do know some 'gurus' and such around, but they are off on some weird systems that seem more interested in forming a cult than spiritual advancement.

93,
Here are some details on a recent invocation of Saturn followed by the assumption of the godform Nephthys. The more I look around the more I see so many variations on Liber O. The one I have been using is also based on it. At its core, Liber O is the engine. The objective was to see what happens when combining a planetary invocation followed by a the assumption of a corresponding godform. The other purpose was to purify and consecrate some sacraments related to Saturn. Other items are on the altar are for offerings or are magickal objects which correspond to the planet and get charged up during the ritual. Also are 2 pillar candles, Atu 21, cup, seal of Saturn on a notecard, hieroglyph for Nephthys, a drawing of the godform. Also was a jar of 'moon water' which is distilled water I consecrated for magickal use during an invocation of Luna for use in subsequent operations requiring water. Here is a diagram of the altar.

9.7. Aspire to the light and draw it down over head to feet and vibrate:
Let the Divine Light Rays,

15.1. Extinguish black candle, crimson candle
15.2. "I declare this sacred temple of art is closed." - Cast the salt into a river flowing toward Saturn.
- Burn the sigils and heiroglyphs, casting ashes to the wind.
A few notable effects include the fading away of the 4 hexagrams, with only the Saturn facing one left, while a thick heavy column of light rotated clockwise about the circle, as if I were inside a tornado of light, but it was moving slow and steady and thick. During the godform portion breaks appeared in the light and I see glimpses of a city outside the circle. For a moment when I had fully formed the godform, I was in the city, standing on a precipice in the assumed position. A strange but beautiful music played (I have heard music before after a Saturn work). The body of light seemed to be drawing or attracting bits of light to the central column of the godform, lke sparks magnetically attracted to a pole. There was an awful lot of energy 'shining' out of the altar after the hexagrams were completed. All the elements had the glow they usually do. For quite a while after it felt like I was still carrying around an 'astral ankh' in my right hand. Some technical errors I made were to not consecrate and purify the sigil and hieroglyph notecards. Probably some others too I don't know about yet, such as some of the correspondences I was not able to confirm with 777. Otherwise from an experimental perspective the operation went mostly as intended, with some interesting results.
