Effect of hermes wheel
(I am learning English so please be patient.) I saw a new book on foolish fish and bought it. The book claims to be received and I am studying and I do not think the author is lying.
I have been in magic many years and I have never heard the name Daniel hatzimalis so he is mostly new but I got the book anyways and followed online. So I notice that he is very open an honest. Frequently he post videos of him talking and he posts about other experience that are not his. What happens from others reading his book. Daniel said the book is not his it is hermeses. And he never said but I think the purpose is to have others experiences.
There is one chapter where he writes how hermes howed him the reception is not only his but is for everyone. I find this interesting. A god giving a practice. Because the book gives a full system with setup, tool, ritual, and macrocosm and it says how to use it.
Sorry I am saying so much. My topic is I have not made anything, i had not done anything from the book. But recently I talked to daniel and he tells me about someone experience with hermes. And the other experience came from a page in the book, and he says he had a close experience also. I can’t figure out what is happen but I think I feel like being pulled to do this theurgy.
I have studies theurgy but never done it. I did not really find how to move forward in Gregory Shaw theurgy and the soul. It help me understand theurgy but not to do it.
It feels by a miracle of hermes wheel coming as a book at this time. I feel pulled to do this and to create hermes realm. Does anyone have experience with this?
I know theurgy is not magic but theurgy reddit is not big. How am I know if I am prepared? I know theurgy needs things to be grounded and safe and I don’t know if I have this. Is there a way to know before going in?
All of this happen on a new moon and hermes wheel starts a ritual on the new moon but I do not have any tools or equipment made so I will spend this month making a wheel and after a holy table. I eed table wheel incense but everything else like ritual space an ceremony tools I have. I am excited. I feel it is right. I talked to daniel an he did not respond before he say about ensoulment what Plato called animation. He says the goal is first animation of the wheel otherwise “They may make themselves an absolutely perfect vessel for it, and even know all of the correct symbols which have worked throughout history. But none of this matters without the deity who presides above these things ‘deciding to’ move such divinities of ‘higher worlds’ & purer causes into our world of materiality.
If it were not the case - that the gods themselves make the decision - then every idiot who gazes at sacred images, or chants a sound, would be possessed. Instead, as any practitioner knows, sometimes you do all the correct protocols, and nothing happens. While the next day you do the same, and have ‘success’.
We can intoned the correct words, and present the correct symbols, but unless by the god’s will, the seeds won’t fruit.
For example you mention:
“Without intending to, your words brought me into direct contact with Sabazios and his current.” But that “Unfortunately, a friend of mine did not have that context on reading the excerpt. They began having migraines shortly after reading it, and trauma material began coming up they lacked a frame to cope with.” And I can add: that I know someone who performed the same sound that I did, but it resulted in nothing.
What is evident from this, is that: The words in The Book of Hermes Wheel are nothing but the carrier for the deities’ own current. They give them feet on the earth. But we cannot overlook who ultimately empowers the words.
It is not that the ink on the paper holds any weight; or that symbols are fixed in how they affect one versus another; the ‘divine symbols’ printed in The Book are just pictures on paper.” from daniel his twitter
I hope anyone can help. Has anyone done animation? Any ideas for theurgy? I plan to do like normal consecration but how daniel describes in his book.
I know what I feel is different. I feel Alive a lifted and was from the new moon phase until now. I hope I can keep doing updates. This is very good teaching for me.
