Dealing with entities during ritual
-
You probably will find your answers, if you do a search for "assumption of god-forms"

"Question: What is meant by ''the appropriate figure and also God assumed'?"
There are various techniques; for example, using something generic or something specific.
The most specific thing this means, in this exact situation, is advice to manifest oneself on the astral as the god-form that rules the context of the journey. So, for example, if you're investigating the Path of Kaph and encounter an entity that won't behave reasonably, assume the form of Amoun - one expression of the Divine power ruling in the field of Jupiter corresponding to the Path - and the entity should immediately jump to attention as if the king (or at least the department manager!) just walked in and caught him smoking a joint in the back room!

There are these marvelous things called books that have all sorts of useful stuff.
For specific images, I recommend the "coffee table" type books o mythology - especially good for the Egyptian pantheon. Additionally, incorporate especially the colors for the Paths from the standard color scales.
For deity correspondences, Crowley's 777 or my own 776 1/2 cover this in detail, across many pantheons.

Cool
Then that's your list. -

This is why i stopped working retail.
For particularly stubborn "entities" I use the words of command found in Liber AL. Where they are found I shall not say.

How does someone assume god-forms?
