Ritual for Evocation of Sandalphon

�   Perform Opening by Watchtower

�   Unwrap sigil and take in left hand. Pick up Magic Wand with right hand. Move clockwise to chair.

�   Relaxation/breathing.

�   Slowly open eyes and gaze at sigil. While doing this, mentally echo name SANDALPHON throughout Universe. Continue for about three�five minutes.

�   Conjuration: Then, look up into mirror and begin to scry. Recite conjuration: I evoke and conjure thee, O Spirit Sandalphon, by the power and authority of the Almighty God, who is known by the names of YHVH, ADONAI, EHEIEH, and AGLA, to appear before me within this mirror in a fair and comely shape.

�   Establish Identity: Continue scrying. When Sandalphon appears in her glory, first make sure it is her. Ask her, What is your name? If she answers correctly, ask for her to sign her name within the mirror. If it is not her, ask the entity why it is here, and then banish it to its sphere with the blessings of YHShVH YHVShH. If you repeat once more and it still doesn�t work, move on to the dismissal and try again later.

�   Greeting: Once you are convinced that it is Sandalphon, say to her, In peace I welcome you, Spirit Sandalphon, and in the name of the Most High I command you to remain within this mirror until you are dismissed, to speak honestly, and to truthfully answer all questions put before you.

�   Explanation: Talk to Sandalphon, going over the following: (a) �Sandalphon, I request that you explain clearly and coherently to me the general purpose of my life and Path. What am I here to do, and what is the overarching goal of this incarnation and life, specifically relating to how this will benefit the Great Work?� (b) �In particular, I request that you give me advice on what my next steps should be to most efficiently and honorably work toward accomplishing that goal in my lifetime. Should I join a Golden Dawn order, or perhaps do something else?� (c) �What other pressing advice for my Path do you have to tell me?�

�   Command: Now give Sandalphon the following command: I command and constrain you, O Spirit Sandalphon, by the power of YHVH, the true unpronounceable name of God, to give me true and honest counsel regarding my life purpose and Path.

�   Conversation: Go ahead and talk with Sandalphon, listening earnestly to her words and wisdom. Depending on how it goes, you might want to ask her if there is a quick way to call her again in the future.

�   Dismissal: Thank Sandalphon, then say to her, Go in peace and return to your sphere of origin, O Spirit Sandalphon. By the authority of the True God, I command you to harm none as you depart, and to be ready to come quickly if called again.

�   When Sandalphon disappears, immediately pick up your magic book and write down any important information, including rituals and words of power, that she may have given.

�   Stand up, walk clockwise to the west of the altar, and wrap up the sigil in black silk and re-place the wand.

�   Perform Closing by Watchtower.

�   Ground first, then afterward record the full results of the evocation. (Make sure to return to normal consciousness first.)

�   Burn sigil.
