So You Want To Summon A Demon?

Some Advice From The Experienced On How To Summon A Demon.

So you want to summon a demon.. I have been asked over the years how to summon a demon. Many times, the question comes from inexperienced people who want to dabble in the dark arts. They want a quick solution to a problem, and they think that summoning a demon is an easy solution to their woes. But, what most don’t realize is that demons aren’t your personal problem solvers, and that they aren’t eager to help you solve mundane problems.

Many times I will suggest that magic is an easier and quicker solution to a problem, rather than summoning a demon. This is because magic is problem-oriented. It’s main use is to help you in life with situations that can be manipulated. Along the way magic helps you to find your purpose and it enriches your life.

But it seems that many people in today’s age are too impatient to learn a magical craft. Many think the occult is a quick and easy way to do things, but in reality it’s not. The study and practice of magic is a lifelong journey, not a quick fix. If you aren’t learning and building your own spells along the way then you are just replicating another person’s work. You won’t have the opportunity to integrate it into your own spiritual being, allowing the process of magic to change you along the way.

And finally, many people just don’t know how to summon a demon. It’s a complicated process that takes time and effort. Without the proper knowledge and preparation it may not work for you at all.

Understanding The Nature of Demons

To understand the nature of demons and demonic power, you have to be able to see how they really don’t care about humanity. They exist because we created them centuries ago, at first, to label and identify violent and destructive forces in our world. Our belief in them gave them their existence in this world. There are legends of demons controlling the forces of wind, fire and destruction. Their very nature is to degrade, break down, and destroy. But in some circumstances, like the ‘genius spirit’ or daemon, like the demons from the Goetia, they can be used for beneficial purposes.

Demons are vessels of incredible force, but they are an impersonal force. They won’t give you the same comfort and care that you could get from working with more beneficent gods and goddesses. Working with them requires you to relinquish a part of yourself so that they can manifest in this world, through your invocations, callings and actions.

My Path To My First Summoning

When you start out thinking you can just start at the top and that will solve all your problems, what you are missing is a good foundation. Without a foundation in metaphysics you are walking blind into a world that you can not control. Your fear and inexperience will always get the better of you, I guarantee it. It’s much like using a sledgehammer on a problem instead of using a knife to carefully cut away only what you need.

When I first started out thinking that I wanted to summon a demon, I felt that it was the pinnacle of what I could achieve in magic and witchcraft. But, I soon realized how much I didn’t know about magic and the occult in general. Sure, I had done spells and had seen results, but was that really enough to be able to work with the powerful force of a demon?

I was single at the time, young and living alone. I had just broken away from a bad relationship of 7 years and I was

Elemental Magic

able to live the way that I wanted. I was able to practice my Satanic ritual and live a magical life again.

So I started out in a study of elemental magic. I spent time working within each element – air, fire, earth, and water. I also began to study Tarot and work with crystals so that I could increase my intuitive ability.

It was only through this study that I was able to really be able to walk in the world of demons, with my senses fully open. I worked with these things for over a year before I attempted my first summoning.

When I finally felt that I was ready, there was a sense inside of me that I just could not deny. My magical ability had advanced greatly in the past year and I was yearning to move on to the next step. This next step I felt, was using direct magic. Direct magic is the ability to use magic without ritual tools as a focal point.

Summoning Opened A Door

My first summoning was intense – I called upon the spirit of Foras (Forcas) to help me to learn direct magic. I didn’t know how to summon a demon but I was willing to give it a try.

What happened after I summoned Foras was nothing short of a miracle.

I spent the entire week studying this demon, finding out as much as I could about him. According to the books, Foras “..appears as a strong man or as a chevalier, with a long beard and white hair. He teaches logic, ethics, and the virtues of herbs and precious stones. He makes people invisible, discovers hidden treasures and lost objects, and imparts wit, wisdom, eloquence, and longevity.” Foras seemed like a good fit for what I wanted to achieve.

I waited until the night of a full moon, I carved a candle with his sigil. I reached out to Foras in a personal ritual. Then I closed the circle, and waited for results. Little did I know that I had opened a door to something fantastic.

A week later, I met someone very special at work. Something drew me to him, he was magnetic. He had the ability to walk into a room and command that room without even appearing to do so. There was just something about this person that I had to discover. When I finally had a chance to talk to him alone, I saw why he had such power and presence. He was a magic user, like me. Our first conversation was about the crystal that I was wearing.

This same man is the man that I eventually married. His name was Bill, and while he was alive he taught me so much about living the magical life. He taught me how to use the subconscious mind. He was an expert at direct magic – the ability to use magic without tools and rituals. In fact, he didn’t like to admit it because of his humble nature, but I always considered him to be a wizard.

Foras had brought into my life someone that I would love and cherish who would eventually pass on his magic wisdom to me, as an apprentice. This divine fate seemed fantastic and unreal. It was a door that opened to a world

Our Wedding Photo 2007

filled with magic every day, something that I could share with someone else who had also walked the path for over 30 years. His wisdom that he passed on to me will remain with me forever.

Even from the description in the Goetia, everything seemed to fall into place. Bill was a strong man, as a Tarus he had broad shoulders and he worked hard at his full time job as a marine mechanic. What also seemed interesting to me is that Bill also had a long beard and white hair.. just like the description of Foras!

I feel blessed that Foras allowed me to open a door in my life, that would eventually lead me to where I am today. I also feel blessed to have known and loved Bill. My husband Bill passed away in 2012 from cancer. We had been together for 12 years and I feel like our time was too short. But in a way, his wit, wisdom and knowledge lives on within me as well.

Summoning brought all of that into my life, and so much more. That is because I approached summoning not as a solution to a problem, but as a way to increase my knowledge. I wanted to learn how to use direct magic – and a person was ‘sent’ to me that taught me how to use it! Every time I have worked with summoning my goal has been to increase my knowledge. Because, to me, knowledge and wisdom is a key that is worth more to me than anything else in the world.

My Suggestion To Those That Want To Summon A Demon

My number one piece of advice to those that want to summon a demon is to keep it simple. Magic can bring you money. It can find you a lover or keep a lover. It can help you land that new job. It can charm and seduce people. It can benefit your life or destroy someone else. Magic can do a lot for you that you won’t be able to achieve with the complicated summoning of a demon.

So if you think that summoning is going to solve all your mundane problems – it’s not. Summoning is only really useful for those that want to develop a relationship with a demon for worship. And in the short term, they are useful for opening doors that seem impossible to budge with the use of magic.

My suggestion to the inexperienced out there is to forget about summoning until you develop your magical senses. Spend time using magic, and learning a form of divination. It is only though this awakening process that you will be prepared to deal with the effects of demon working. It is only through being awakened that you will be able to see the signs of your results, and how to react to them.

To summon a demon is to call it into your being and into your life. Summoning has a higher purpose. By working with demons, you increase your knowledge and awareness of yourself and the world around you.

Without this you are blind. And that’s no way to solve a problem.

Below are three articles from my Spiritual Satanist Blog that may help you on your journey to summon a demon.

Satan is an Alien Being!

This was a letter sent to me through my SpiritualSatanist.com – She is asking about another website that has some information on the demons of the goetia.

I am 24, from Birmingham, UK – I have been a seeker within the left-hand path for about six months now. I was christian, but the religion did not seem real to me, and I did not want to sacrifice who I was for a god I did not have a relationship with. After leaving Christianity, I was sure that the occult would give me the answers and spiritual development I was searching for. I tried Wicca, but felt this wasn’t my correct path, so to cut a long story short this is where I am now.

I have been reading a lot about the Goetia recently, but have no desire to practice evocations until I am more adept. However, I do want to practice it further down the line…I enjoyed reading of your experience with Belial, and something I have recently read on another web site could hold a few answers…

Please check out this link: http://perdurabo10.tripod.com/id232.html
The magician, Aaron, after summoning Belial for the purpose of remote viewing, was given the distinct impression that he was dead. I believe this is why your first image of him was of a skull and bones. There is also a possibility that a successor has taken his place… which could indicate why you were then shown a new form (although it is known spirits will change form at request). I may have just logically came to this assumption after reading both accounts, however something inexplicable makes me think this is no coincidence.

Apart from this comparison with Belial that I wanted to make you aware of, Aaron and James have a really interesting story to tell with all of the Goetic spirits. I wondered what your thoughts were on their findings?…Anne.

I have seen this website, years ago. Quite honestly to me it is ridiculous. Allow me to explain why.

It is a site devoted to an alien representation of the goetia. That’s right! This guy believes (with all his heart, it seems) that the goetia demons are visitors from another world. That they were sent here to protect us from enslaving angelic forces.

His writings are a mix of conspiracy and new world order theory, combined with occult conspiracy theory. He also believes that aliens are here to commune with us under the guise of the occult.

I swear.. i saw something similar to this on a tv show, called “Stargate”.. where the ancient gods like Apophis and Thor, were represented as Aliens! But, I do not think that this is where he got his ideas from.

On closer examination you can see that Aaron’s web page name is ‘perdurabo’. This was a name used by Aleister Crowley. Also, it was Crowley who claimed that his holy angelic guide was a being named LAM, who curiously looked like a ‘gray alien.’ See the picture to the right ->
Crowley and his associates also recorded many things from the grimoires to interpret their own version of the Goetia.

By putting all of this information together its quite easy to see the source of materials that he uses on his site. This source is from Crowley. The things that Aaron writes about are a mixed assortment of crowleyism combined with Nostradamus-like conspiracy theories, spiritual warfare (a christian belief) and extra-terrestrial ‘saviors’ from another world in the disguise of judeo-christian demons.

This kind of writing lacks dimension, and its not very useful..but it may entertain those who are new to the occult. It has no literary value nor does any of it even make sense. I suggest you get away from his site as fast as you can. The lesson to be learned here is this: if it sounds absolutely crazy, it most likely is.

Resources on the Goetia
There are better places to look for information on the Goetia. Perhaps start with the Crowley version of the Goetia which you can get at amazon.com. While you are at it you might as well get a copy of the Book of Ceremonial Magic, written by AE Waite. This book is an overview of the various magical grimoires of the time. While it is lengthy it gives some interesting insight into Ceremonial Magic

Selected books:
The Goetia, Mathers and Crowley
The Goetia, Crowley
The Book of Ceremonial Magic

Poke Runyon: (from wiki) “He founded the Ordo Templi Astartes (O.T.A.) in 1969, and incorporated it in 1971. This “Order of the Temple of Astarte” is dedicated to the revived worship of the Canaanite goddess Astarte and her consort Baal.”

He has released books, Cd’s and also videos on Goetic Summoning. You can see a real goetia ritual being performed in some video clips available at youtube. He explains his own method of using the magic mirror and the triangle of the art. These are the devices of ceremonial summoning.

I also created a series of videos available at youtube, where I talk about my theories on the goetic demons, and I discuss methods of summoning.

The Goetia part 3 (youtube.com)

Demonolatry
This is the practice of summoning, and worshiping the demons of the Goetia (and demons from other sources as well). The OFS Demonolatry site began almost a decade ago, as a place for demonolators to meet online. What is so interesting about this practice is that they worship demons but they also use these forces to perform magic. The demons of this faith were developed from the studies of Richard Dukante, who created his own ritual system for working with these demons. Visit this link for more info:

OFS Demonolatry Site

My recommendation:
You should do your research and double check any information that you come across, in regards to any kind of occult practice. The more that you study, the more you will find writers and websites, just like Aaron’s, that are sourced from other, much older references. These types of sites lack any kind of originality and insight, and they are not useful as occult references. You should seek out the classical sources and attempt to work with these things yourself, through practice and experimentation. Don’t just accept what you read without using some discernment and some basic common sense.

My Archangel Michael Drawing

A friend at my Facebook asked me about my drawing of Michael. This was a drawing created in 2006.

I created this drawing during a summoning of Belial. Back in ’06 I was experimenting with Goetic Summoning, and Belial was one of the more influential spirits that I worked with.

Summoning Belial was an experiment in general. At the time, I was still working on my style of summoning. In summoning him, I created a ritual in which I wanted to evoke Belial through the element of fire. I felt that evoking Belial through that element was the best way to connect with his spirit and his essence.

So, I created a ritual where I evoked the element of fire, and then afterward I evoked the spirit of Belial. What was so interesting is that my cat Shadow joined in with me during the summoning. maybe he was curious as to what I was doing, or maybe not.. but I created a circle of astral fire around me, and then he sat outside of the circle and watched as I called out to Belial. I listened to certain songs during that week that would enable me to enter into the state of mind that I find necessary for interacting with demons. I think it was the Covenant album of Morbid Angel.

During that week, I had several inner visions that caught my interest. As I chanted his name and focused on his essence, one particular image that came to my mind was striking. it was the image of a skull in the darkness, surrounded by old bones.. this image was strange and frightening to me, and at the same time I was angry for this, so I called out to Belial again, and I said to him, ‘Show me a more pleasing form!’ almost immediately the image faded into the sight of a majestic lion. To me the meditation experience was incredible.

But, most of my experience in evoking Belial did not come from the inner visions. it was how this spirit interacted with me that made me feel that he had imparted his influence in my life. This influence came through knowledge and through interactions with others in my life. It is hard to describe but when I was evoking the Goetia they would bring to me certain situations as a test, or they would ‘produce’ fortunate situations, or allow things to come through for me. When I worked with them my main goal wasn’t fulfillment of desires, it was the search for knowledge, and that is how much of it was experienced, through visions and inner knowing and through the experiences around me.

I studied the name of Belial – and there were many variations of his name. One of the more interesting variations was the word, ‘be-liar’ and the more that I focused on this aspect of his spirit the more that I doubted some of the knowledge that was presented to me. I didn’t doubt that the knowledge was true or false, I just doubted whether the knowledge would be useful to me if I wasn’t going to dedicate and worship Belial as a demon. It seemed that he was only willing to impart so much to me without some type of dedication. At that point, I felt lost and unsure.
In my research I discovered that there was some other source that I could turn to, to help me to interrogate the spirit of Belial. This spirit was Michael.

So, for several days I focused on Michael. the first vision of him that I had was the vision of a white horse. then I began to see two figures who were separated from each other, facing away from each other. Then I saw Michael at a gateway. These were symbolic and meaningful inner visions that I experienced in my mind during meditations. I asked Michael several times to help me, to reveal if the spirit of Belial was really ‘be-liar’..

After some time I realized that Michael was not going to help me if I wasn’t willing to dedicate my life to his god. He wouldn’t reveal secrets to me without being one with my spirit.

During that time, I created the image of Michael to help me to focus on his evocation. I envisioned him as the keeper of secrets, guarding what could be known behind the veils of existence. I think the pose and the coloring of the drawing captured the essence of my experience with him.

In fact, drawing helps me to ease into a state of mind that is very receptive to creative thought. Music has a similar effect on me. But, it is how I used these states of mind that enabled me to experience the essence of these spirits. I found no kindness within my experience of Michael, and I was not willing to worship Bel’yal to obtain deeper secrets and mysteries. For some time after, I kept the two drawings together by my altar.

My experiences were incredible and fulfilling and I wouldn’t hesitate to work with Belial again if the opportunity presented itself.

Review: The Demonic Bible

Ahhh.. The Demonic Bible… a mysterious tome written by the Disciple of the Dark Lord, and the AntiChrist, Magister Tsirk Susuej. According to his account, his un-holy guardian angel, Azazel revealed these invocations to him and inspired him to write this book.

I met Tsirk back in 2005. We talked through emails and we discussed ideas about Satanism. At the Time he was running a Luciferian organization, [The Embassy of Lucifer] and he approached me and asked me to host his book at my website. Tsirk was the protege of the Satanic Magician, Yaj Nomolos – He wrote several books [including, The Magic Circle]. Yaj Nomolos had ties with the original Church of Satan in the 80’s.

The Demonic Bible is a bare-bones guidebook of incantations and invocations. It is meant to be used as a guide to inner understanding of the dark and animalistic aspects of the soul. Through the invocations of demons, vampires, the undead and werewolves, the author takes you on an inner journey through the subconscious. These invocations are related to the dark and dangerous associations of the Left Hand Path.

How you use this book is up to you. My interpretation is that this book can be used to introduce the subconscious to these demonic forces, by identifying with the imagery and associations of the left hand path through a series of rituals. If you are seeking to understand or experience these aspects, then this book could be a great introduction for you.

The latest 4th revised edition can be found at amazon.

Lucifuge Rofocale

The name of the demon known as Lucifuge, or Lucifuge Rofocale originated from the Latin lux fugio [literally, to flee the light] and Rofocale which has been speculated to be a ciphered name from the Goetia, Focalor, another demon that is found within the grimorie known as the Lemegeton¹.A grimoire is a book of magic and incantations for demons, angels and spirits.

Lucifuge was described by Honorius [possibly from the 13-15th CE] as the demon in charge under the emperor Lucifer for the government of hell. Within The Book of Honorius is an invocation to summon and make a pact with Lucifuge Rofocale. There are many Christian grimoires that have included the names of Lucifer and Lucifuge within the ranks of hell².

Other authors have created hierarchies of hell by using ideas of the past, such as within The Book of Ceremonial Magic written by AE Waite. He included a Christian rite to Lucifuge, and a method of pact making with the demon much like the book of Honorius.

The creation of the hierarchies of hell was a literary invention by Christians and Theologians. It is most likely that the interpretations of Lucifer within these books are in direct relation to the Christian legend of the fall of Lucifer and the perceived connection that Lucifer and Satan are the same.

Lucifuge is a demon that was created by authors who wrote grimoires. Lucifer and Lucifuge may sound similar but their origins are quite different. Translated, Lucifer is known as The Light Bringer and Lucifuge is known as He who Flees from the Light.

There is a relation to these two different beings known as Lucifer and Lucifuge. As the name suggests, Lucifer was related throughout mythology as the one who brings the light, and Lucifuge, being the counter-part to Lucifer, would run from the light of day and bring the nightfall. It was an easy transition to create this representative of the evening star of Venus, into a demon of the night.

Lucifer had been demonized in two different ways. Firstly he was stripped of his beauty and power through his association with goddesses of feminine power and beauty [Venus] through literary tales and within the bible. And then, his counterpart, Hesperous, Noctifer, was demonized by changing the meaning of his name from bringer of the night, to Lucifuge the one who flees the light, denying the presence of God.

The Circle of the Art [Summoning]

I am moving my articles from the Art of Summoning website, to here on my blog. I want to improve on the success of my blog by adding these articles. In a few weeks my art of Summoning website will no longer host these articles.

The Circle in Ceremonial Magic

The magic circle is known as the Circle of the Art in the Grimoire of Solomon. The Circle is inscribed into the ritual area, and used as a boundary between the magician and the spirits, keeping them at bay with the protection of inscribed talismans and incantations. The circle of the art is also used to draw upon the power of Jehova in order to make demons obey.

The magician is given instruction to create three concentric circles, in a clockwise direction. This is symbolized by the coiled serpent upon which the names of the angels of the nine Sephiroth are written. around this circle are four stars each symbolizing all of the elements, one for each elemental corner or direction. The magician is given instruction to create three concentric circles, clockwise which is symbolized by the serpent upon which the names of the angels of the nine Sephira are written. around this circle are four stars each symbolizing all of the elements, one for each elemental corner or direction. Above this is the triangle and circle of the art, a glyph or image that calls upon the power of God through the will of the magician.

“Take thou Knife, the Sickle or Sword of magical art, consecrated after the manner and order which we shall deliver unto thee……With this knife or with the Sickle of the Art thou shalt describe, beyond the inner Circle which thou shalt have already formed, a second circle encompassing the other at the distance of one foot there from and having the same centre. Within this space, of a foot in breadth between the first and second circumferential line, thou shal trace towards the Four Quarters of the Earth…..” –S.L. MacGregor Mathers Goetia…“¹

Solomon Triangle of the Art

Above this image of the coiled serpent is the Triangle of the Art, an image inscribed in front of the Circle of the Art that calls upon the power of God through the will of the magician. The magician creates these symbols within the summoning area to evoke, or manifest a demon into the triangle. Within the triangle name of Michael, and at the sides are written the words, Tetragrammation meaning Yod, He Vau He, the Four Names of God, Anaphaxetongreat God of the heavenly hosts, and Primeumation translated as Thou who art the First and the Last². translated as

“This is the Form of the Magical Triangle, into the which Solomon did command the Evil Spirits. It is to be made at 2 feet distance from the Magical Circle and it is 3 feet across..“–S.L. MacGregor Mathers Goetia…”³

The circle is designed to protect the summoner and to raise power that is transferred through them by the power of their god. This is called theurgy, the use of gods to produce results in magic. The triangle is the area of manifestation, and it is symbolic of the three planes or dimensions of existence. Summoning the spirit into the triangle manifests this spirit into the physical plane, according to the directions of the Goetia.

Symbolic Representation

Magic uses symbolism through images, actions, and words. Ritual magic is dependent on these elements to help the magician focus. The same effects of the Solomon circle and triangle can be achieved without using the Solomon method, through a deep knowledge and understanding of the symbolism that is used in magic.

The circle enclosing the magician in the Solomon method, is a means of protection and of focus. The same method is used in witchcraft, without the names of god and the angels to assist. A similar method can be used in Satanic Ritual Magic as well, where the magician is the focus of the ritual and represents the ‘god-form’.

The symbolism of the circle must be understood before you can utilize it to its full potential. The circle, whether it is astral, physical or mental is an image that creates a boundary around you. Instead of appealing to a higher power the satanist becomes as a god. The circle represents the world or universe and at the center is god, the magician the higher self.

The Solomon method of theurgy works because it is God that is directing the angels and demons through the will of the magician. This god offers protection and enforcement. What the magician may not realize that it is their will that is really directing these forces, because without the desire of the magician there would be no results.

The Satanic Circle and Triangle of the Art

These are my theories, on the art of Summoning for Satanists. The Satanic method is not opposite to the Solomon method, it is just more refined. The Satanist is the god-form that influences the energy and direction of the spirits that they summon.

The Circle is not for protection, it is for enforcement. It is the very act of becoming “god” at the center of the universe, and projecting one’s will from this vantage point, that will give the Satanist the ability to do what they do.

Your body, and being is but a reflection of the universe. Your body is made of the same elements as are found in the universe, air, fire, earth, water, spirit. You are the representation of the pentagram and the circle, representing the earth, the universe, the elements, and the magician in tune with the universe.

Since it has been found that, demons, angels and celestial beings are both existent within and outside the mind at the same time, it really makes sense that you have the control and power to be able to call upon any being in this universe, whenever you want. You are not calling on god, you are evoking your own will. You must meditate on this idea, actively to reach this realization of unlimited potential within.

The Triangle, whether it is astral, physical or mental is an image that directs the will and focus it towards manifestation. The triangle is composed of three areas, each side representing a force. I like to associate these three with the words, I AM, I WILL, I CREATE, a magical mantra used because of the representation of the words and their combination. I AM focuses on the magician, as the center of the universe, I WILL is a focus of the will of the magician, and I Create is the manifestation of this will.

The triangle should face North, so that you can focus the energies of Fire, Water and Air, to manifest the spirit on the Earth plane. In the original Solomon Circle and triangle, the magician faces east but since the Satanist has no need to use the associations from this Christian paradigm, facing north or whatever direction you feel represents manifestation will help you.

This is only my method that I have developed and used over the years.You should attempt to come to your own personal understanding of the symbolism in magic and apply it in ways that you can relate to.

Invocation of Beleth

A question was sent to me from a friend who has been experimenting with Goetic evocations. I am hoping that I can give him some perspective in my reply..

“I evoked beleth for lust , you know sexual partners, I asked that it slowly manifest and then fully manifest by march 1st. Only a few days after I had a call from an old job that owed me money and had over 600$. This is not bad by any means, I am glad to get it, but I have not seen any manifestation of my lustful desires, any thoughts please?”

I would be helpful to know what type of ritual preparations that you used to evoke this demon. For instance, did you prepare beforehand by doing any ritual cleansing or preparations to evoke this demon, or was it something that was spur of the moment? If you have experience with goetics it is easier to make them manifest after you have found your particular method of manifesting them – eg., you know the triggers and are familiar with their style of communication and you know the expected outcomes. The more you summon, the more you are comfortable with the process and the easier it is to call their energy into your life.

Secondly, have you researched the nature of this demon? Does it work better with humans if it’s offered some type of tribute or payment in return? In some cases a relationship with a being like this does not come easily, or quickly because it is a spiritual relationship. Once you are comfortable with this demon and it knows what to expect from you, it becomes something that is familiar and it is often easier to evoke it to your realm when it is needed. So you may have to begin a process of offering devotion to it through ritual, or more appropriately, through sexual ritual if sexual desire is the nature of this demon. Also, you could research the proper incences/colors/oils and other attributes that will make the experience better for you that will attract the proper associations to you. It will create the proper environment for manifestation.

From the Goetia, Mathers: “Beleth is a King of Demons ..”The Thirteenth Spirit is called Beleth (or Bileth, or Bilet). He is a mighty King and terrible. He rideth on a pale horse with trumpets and other kinds of musical instruments playing before him. He is very furious at his first appearance, that is, while the Exorcist layeth his courage; for to do this he must hold a Hazel Wand in his hand, striking it out towards the South and East Quarters, make a triangle, without the Circle, and then command him into it by the Bonds and Charges of Spirits as hereafter followeth.”

We are obviously not using the classical ceremonial method of summoning. This involves entrapment of demons, and their harassment into submission.

What we can see from this statement in the goetia is that he is associated with the number 13.
Also, the things that may help with his manifestation would be music, especially the sound of brass, or horns.. Since they mention the south and the east, you could by association attempt to evoke elemental energies of Air and Fire. Here you have three associations by which to connect with him, a number, elemental correspondences and music.

From the Goetia, Mathers: “And if he doth not enter into the triangle, at your threats, rehearse the Bonds and Charms before him, and then he will yield Obedience and come into it, and do what he is commanded by the Exorcist. Yet he must receive him courteously because he is a Great King, and do homage unto him, as the Kings and Princes do that attend upon him.”

Again, we are not threatening him into submission. but observe that as a ‘king’ of demons he may require some type of homage or tribute if he is to be pleased into working along with you. We are not talking ‘blood sacrifice’, 😉 but a ritual in his honor , [but not necessarily for worship!] would be a very inticing prospect to a demon like this.

From the Goetia, Mathers: “And thou must have always a Silver Ring on the middle finger of the left hand held against thy face, as they do yet before AMAYMON. This Great King Beleth causeth all the love that may be, both of Men and of Women, until the Master Exorcist hath had his desire fulfilled. He is of the Order of Powers, and he governeth 85 Legions of Spirits. His Noble Seal is this, which is to be worn before thee at working.”

As you can see, this demon does not specifically create ‘sexual desire’, all though that is one of your desires and the reason why you approach him for service. What did happen for you though when you scored the 600$ was a situation that came into your *favor*, involving a *gift* to you.
It was a manifestation of a long-held desire. And while it was not related specifically to what you asked for its a very good start. It produced love or favor from someone from your past who was not obligated to contact you or give you this gift.

And, while you have this 600$ to spend, it certainly increases your opportunity to get out there and put yourself in a situation where your true desire can manifest. You have to realize that your new lover is not going to knock on your door out of the blue, but they could be waiting for you in the right place at the right time! You are enabled through this money and you could easily take advantage of it. Perhaps a night on the town to celebrate, where you may meet someone that you can enjoy your time with? Some way to [physically] improve yourself through this money so that your ability to attract others in a sexual way will be increased?

You may want to consider the implication of the money that came your way. You may want to purchase a silver ring if you plan on investing more time and effort into this relationship, a token to remind you of the situation you are manifesting, and a symbol that seems to relate to the spirit known as Beleth. Maybe now you can purchase some incense or oil to use for another tribute ritual. You are enabled by this money.

The possibilities are there once the doors are opened. “Lustful desires” are easy to manifest by yourself, but the situation has to be right, and I’m sure that is what you are waiting for, and they can help, but demon-working is not a one-sided relationship.

Sometimes it is not what they give to us, but how it manifests into our life, and the significance that this can play in obtaining what you want.

Now, more information on Beleth:
In the Shem ha-Mephorash the demon Beleth is a Day spirit ruled by Leo, the Element of Fire, and the Tarot Suit of Wands.

Your request was supposed to be fulfilled by march 1st? you still have some time to take advantage of your situation. We can not just lay back after an evocation and wait for them to serve us, for if it were that easy, everyone would be summoning demons to get things done!

You have to work along with this demon to help you, and in turn it will focus it’s attention on you. This can only come when you focus on the relationship that you have and you stop doubting yourself after you do your rituals. The doubt that you experience is natural, but it negates all of your efforts in the end. Working in unison with a demon is a good method of getting what you want. They are not servants and we are not slaves.
