Is there some kind of simplified version of this? Supposedly it contains all these secrets/methods for communicating with angels and unlocking knowledge within yourself, but there's so much to go through. Do I just have to brute force my way through it and read the entire thing?
Never used Ars Notoria specifically, but generally anytime you're "summoning angels" with occult stuff, it's demons pretending to be angels. Unfortunately. Look to the experiences of famed historical occultists like John Dee, or Cornelius Aggripa. They both found out the hard way. If you look at the 72 angels of the Shem HaMephorash, for example, which are the most popular ones. Their names are derived from reading parts of the bible boostrophonically (meaning, in part, backwards). Even if you have just a little bit of occult knowledge, you should be able to understand why it's inherently problematic to read parts of the bible backwards. Then, of course, there is the fact that these angels each correspond to 1 of the 72 infamous goetic demons. Basically the implication is that the angels, in fact, are the demons. But the demons are pretending to be angels. Nothing prevents a demon from pretending to be an angel. Unfortunately.But once more, I've never worked with Ars Notoria. But even though I haven't I can more or less inform you it has the same problem.
>>42028066>simplifiedJewish bullshit.If you value your time rather try some fucking TriumphantGeorge or UL. Straight and to the fucking point and cut out the stupid fucking wishy washy bullshit.
>>42028200Can you recommend any books you think are safe?
>>42031639No. Don't contact any entities out of ancient grimoires. Ever. Even if you're deadset on getting in contact with "the other side," no matter what, never do it this way. Never try to contact any entities. None. It will do you no good. It will benefit you none in the long run.There are already entities everywhere. They're reading these posts right now. They follow you around in stores and whisper in your ear for you to buy things you don't need (because they're in the service of Jeff Bezos, or people like that). There's just absolutely no need for you to work with ancient grimoires like that, or to reach out and try to invite one of them into your life, which will never work out well for you.I know the answer won't work for you, because you will do what you want to do, but I will try to explain why (partly):1) You're living in a bad astral neighborhood. Mostly negative things are around on this plane.2) You're blind. You never even try to work on the spiritual plane, until you can see on it first.3) You're a blind person walking around in this bad neighborhood, screaming blindly "come be my friend" at night in the streets, not understanding the only people who are going to come are the ones who want to fucking mug you, rob you, rape you, murder you.4) You're probably already psychically vulnerable if you're a 4chan user. Particularly if you go on /pol/ you most certainly have negative astral entities who have noticed you, and whisper in your ear to pull you down into low vibrations.My recommendation for you is to go find a very liberal church. One which does not require you to interpret everything about Christianity in the same dogmatic way they do, and basically attend those services until you develop your own connection to the spirit world...which will happen eventually on its own. If you're interested in perceiving it...then eventually you will because your focus will be in that plane, and then boom you will be able to view it.
>>42032566Thank you for your response, which I greatly appreciate. I'm currently following a self-initiation curriculum into the Golden Dawn, taught by Lyam T. Christopher, and the only invocations I perform are related to the classic rituals (LBRP, LBRH, Middle Pillar, Pathworking Tree of Life, invocations on the elements and planets). I'm also trying to develop astral sensitivity through third eye meditation in addition to rituals. I experience a constant ringing/pressure in my ears, which worsens during rituals and almost disappears when I'm around people. I think the neophytes were right in the beginning, when they practiced LBRP for at least six months before moving on to other rituals. I'm banishing and working on undesirable traits with LBRP, and it seems to be working. One must be clean to reduce the possibility of invoking who knows what forces, and morality is actually a defense mechanism, not bigotry. Some very unpleasant things happened to me before things got a little better.Any advice would be greatly appreciated. In any case, I won't perform any invocations outside of the strictly necessary curriculum, which I must complete to avoid being left suspended between worlds.
>>42028066The "god" of the old testament isn't a god. Go read the secret book of John it spells it out in detail.The thing the Jewish faith references as "God" is Yaldabaoth god of ignorance. Ignorance is the soil evil grows from. This is why you get old testament Chrisitans and Jew doing hateful things, they've been long conned, and fell for it hook, line, and sinker.That book probably just summons any number of Yaldabaoth's archons. Being born from ignorance they're not particularly smart but have many years experience. You could probably trick them or perhaps bind them somehow. Unsure I've never tried to do so and much is likely lost knowledge at this point.Probably have to start from square one constructing a new ritual with appropriate protections, need to read the Nag Hammandi and Ars Notoria texts at a minimum for reference. Assuming you have any experience spellcrafting.Given you wanna summon Angles I'm assuming you're Christian. Have you tried, just asking Sophia, Yeshua, or the Monad (god) for what it is you want?Elsewise, using spells to make whatever be with your own power. Your own soul has more divine power sleeping inside it then you likely realize.
