What are some of your Magik rituals and who are your favorite Gods/Goddesses?

Question

This is a serious question and I would really like to receive serious and detailed replies. Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

The Great Rite because it involves the worship of both the God and Goddess.


Also, Drawning Down The Moon is really good too, I like the uplifting feel you get from preforming it.


When it comes to God, and the Goddess, I see them as one interlinking force that connects everyone and everything toghter.
I don't really have a 'favorite'.I respect all the forces of nature, and view each element as sacred. Which I think is how it should be, everything is sacred.

Answer 2

I mostly write my own rituals as appropriate to the situation. They tend to be either completely off-the-cuff or incredibly detailed--my current working is projected to span at least a month, with more done on it every day, though it's for something much bigger than I usually do--and something I've tended to not be very skilled at magically. For general methods, though...Sigilization is a technique I employ pretty often, especially with smaller things. I will rarely perform a ritual in a language I'm familiar with (which has to do with my concepts of how magic works), and I either rearrange my statement of intent or loosely translate. The current working is done totally in Ouranian Barbaric. I also use standard methods of reaching gnosis, my favorites being meditation, dancing, and the death posture.

I tend towards the trickster gods--Eris, Loki, Coyote, Anansi, and I've been known to invoke Olidammara, who is a trickster god from Dungeons and Dragons. (He worked out great.) The main gods I work with are probably Eris and Mars, who I treat in their brother-sister aspect. I've been branching into the Norse pantheons lately, and am finding quickly that Odin is my go-to guy when it comes to seeking knowledge.

Answer 3

I don't have any yet, but I hear the Rite of the Bornless One is a real hoot. I have an affinity for Enki and Inanna, Hecate, Anubis, and some interest in Canaanite gods.

Answer 4

In reality God because I couldn't have gotten this far in life without Him! Then again, He also taught me to read, and therefore, in fantasy my favorite is Aphrodite, the goddess of love and passion. Or maybe it's because people keep calling ME that. I'll live with it.

Answer 5

the only rituals i do is cleasing and banishing when i need it. i'm more of a spiritualist than a practitioner, but i'm working on being more experienced with doing rituals and spellcraft. my favorite gods would include: horus, set and loki. the goddesses i usually pray to are: kali, hecate, diana, kuan yin, hestia, hathor, isis as well as one who shall not be named, hahah. only because she is the goddess combined with all goddesses and gods, but i see this deity as female.

Answer 6

I find myself drawn to the Hindu deities Siva, Lakshmi and Ganesha.

Lord Siva as Nataraja, the Cosmic Dancer and Ganesha both have honored places on my altar. The Dancer reminds me that all things created must end, in the divine ring of fire. Siva reminds me with His pointing hand and raised foot of the need for meditation and reflection, as well as merriment and celebration.

Ganesha reminds me of a store keeper - Friendly, laid-back, chatty and helpful. He is content to simply BE with me, exchanging humor and news, trading gossip or simply sitting quietly together, breathing. Whenever I begin a new undertaking, I first pay homage to Ganesha with common wildflowers like chamomile and lilies.

Lakshmi has Her own shrine, where I leave offerings of semi-precious gemstones, rose petals and incense each day. She reminds me to look for Beauty everywhere, not just the obvious places. She reminds me that the real joy in the gift of Love is the giving of it.

Answer 7

Dude, you dont nee Majick, or rituals of witchcraft. i will pray to God, and whether this is HIS Will all issues could be performed, whether miracles or the illusions of majik, and that i understand that such can ensue with out going to devil or fallen angels for power to apply upon earth.

Answer 8

I love out door, campfire rituals where you toss offerings on the flames--some of my favorite deities are Lilith, Oya, Erzulie, and Maximon

Answer 9

I burn sage and meditate, and after that i visualize my self surounded by a white or grey like auroa, and then channel my positive energy into a crystal i wear for protection, and to block many negative energy others may try to impose upon me.
