As a further celebration of two years of time-sorcery, here’s a ritual from the upcoming Time-Sorcery 2: Practical Numogrammatics, hopefully coming out by the end of the year (our current plan is to have it done ASAP, but it’s up to the lemurs). If you try this ritual, please share how it goes for you! It mimicks the structure of our first experiments in time-sorcery, as you can hopefully tell. It continues to be a reliable method for establishing contact with any impulse-entity.
This ritual is meant to be done multiple times to connect with different imps each time, but there’s no reason it can’t stand alone either! If you want something specific, you’re welcome to turn this communication into a bargaining session as well.
To Commune With Any Given Imp(ulse-entity)
Tools:
-Image of the numogram
-Incense
-Candles (if desired)
-Space to perform the rite
-Notebook for notes of any type (real or virtual)
Structure:
Prepare yourself for the summoning by performing your favorite banishing ritual. Light the candles or incense. Place the image of the numogram in front of you and meditate upon it generally for ten to fifteen minutes or until it begins to dissolve into three or four dimensional space.
Once you are ready, call upon the imp that you wish to evoke. For lemurs, recite its Pandemonium entry or repeat its net-span. For zones or other imps, focus your attention only on the singular entity, repeating the numbers involved in it as a mantra. "One one one one one" for example if the goal is to make contact with Zn-1.
Eventually, you should feel contact establish. If it seems to be taking a long time, simply proceed to the next step as if the ritual has succeeded so far.
Develop a set of questions to ponder during each performance. Here are some:
1) Who are you?
2) What do you govern?
3) Where does one find you?
After your questions are answered through images or text, close out the ritual by meditating upon Zn-1. Let the energy of Zn-1 envelope the ritual space and then banish using your favorite ritual again.
The goal of this ritual cycle is to establish rapport with the imps of the numogram. If you wish to take it a step further and go directly into working with each imp, you're welcome to do so. Simply turn the questions section into some form of exchange.
