Goetic Spirit Invocation of Botis and Companion Angel Loviah / Lauviah J.R. Spalding Technique 21st November 2016e.v.
The J.R. Spalding Technique of Goetic Invocation has been developed by him work to successfully call more than half of the spirits of 72 collected in the Goetia of the the Lesser Key of Solomon, also known as Clavicula Salomonis Regis, or Lemegeton. His results have been quite excellent and his experiences have been superb. Recently he shared his way of working with me and I made these outline sigils as a part of the working.
The faint outlines seen in the pictures can be filled in with many different forms of artistic tools. More than just inks, or stains you can work the surface of the sigil before colouring in and then applying a finish. You are only limited in result by the constraints of your art supplies. The sigils, or seals are described as being constructed in certain metals for the different spirits. It is quite easy to include a little of some of the metals in your sigils. The time and energy spent on a sigil does not guarantee a successful result. Personalising sigils and making them a fitting symbolic ket to unlock the working is the task of the magician. Great crafting skills are not required, but a focus on the intent of using the sigil as a key will always help. The magician’s conscious decision to use the working to open up a spirit communication is the main event. Making a sigil before the working is a great preparation for that event.
In calling the spirits the main text preferred by J.R. Spalding is Stephen Skinner & David Rankine, The Goetia of Dr. Rudd Golden Hoard Press, 2007. I would also suggest Aleister Crowley; Samuel Liddell MacGregor Mathers; Hymenaeus Beta (1995). The Goetia: The Lesser Key of Solomon the King. Red Wheel and do look out for later revised editions.

Lorica of Saint Patrick
I arise today
Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity,
Through a belief in the Threeness,
Through confession of the Oneness ...
Of the Creator of creation.
I arise today
Through the strength of Christ's birth and His baptism,
Through the strength of His crucifixion and His burial,
Through the strength of His resurrection and His ascension,
Through the strength of His descent for the judgment of doom.
I arise today
Through the strength of the love of cherubim,
In obedience of angels,
In service of archangels,
In the hope of resurrection to meet with reward,
In the prayers of patriarchs,
In preachings of the apostles,
In faiths of confessors,
In innocence of virgins,
In deeds of righteous men.
I arise today
Through the strength of heaven;
Light of the sun,
Splendor of fire,
Speed of lightning,
Swiftness of the wind,
Depth of the sea,
Stability of the earth,
Firmness of the rock.
I arise today
Through God's strength to pilot me;
God's might to uphold me,
God's wisdom to guide me,
God's eye to look before me,
God's ear to hear me,
God's word to speak for me,
God's hand to guard me,
God's way to lie before me,
God's shield to protect me,
God's hosts to save me
From snares of the devil,
From temptations of vices,
From every one who desires me ill,
Afar and anear,
Alone or in a mulitude.
I summon today all these powers between me and evil,
Against every cruel merciless power that opposes my body and soul,
Against incantations of false prophets,
Against black laws of pagandom,
Against false laws of heretics,
Against craft of idolatry,
Against spells of women and smiths and wizards,
Against every knowledge that corrupts man's body and soul.
Christ shield me today
Against poison, against burning,
Against drowning, against wounding,
So that reward may come to me in abundance.
Christ with me, Christ before me, Christ behind me,
Christ in me, Christ beneath me, Christ above me,
Christ on my right, Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down, Christ when I sit down,
Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of every man who speaks of me,
Christ in the eye that sees me,
Christ in the ear that hears me.
I arise today
Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity,
Through a belief in the Threeness,
Through a confession of the Oneness
Of the Creator of creation
St. Patrick (ca. 377)

La traduzione letterale è “con le mani tese”, ma questa espressione viene comunemente usata sia nella letteratura religiosa cristiana sia nella descrizione di opere d’arte a soggetto religioso.
Le braccia sono alzate, rivolte verso il cielo.
E’ tra le invocazioni ancestrali più diffuse e istintive, forse è il modo più antico ed autentico per stabilire un rapporto con il Mistero, da sempre metaforicamente posto in cielo.
In questa installazione viene rappresentata con linguaggi estetici lontani tra loro, nel tempo e nei luoghi:
- La figura Hampatong Pantak - o- Patong Pantak evoca il guardiano del popolo Dayak
Kalimantan occidentale, isola del Borneo, Indonesia.
Hampatong ( da patong, che nella lingua Dayak significa statua ) è il termine usato per gli antenati e le figure protettive fatte di duro "legno di ferro", che i Dayak del Borneo allestivano nei luoghi di sepoltura come sculture commemorative in onore dei morti, o davanti ai loro spazi comunitari come guardiani.
-La figura Bateba, del popolo Lobi ( Burkina Faso ) evoca un antenato ancestrale che ha la funzione di proteggere il villaggio mediante la costante comunicazione con gli Spiriti.
Come sempre accade nelle culture extraeuropee, il messaggio affidato alla statua è limpido e dichiarato dal linguaggio gestuale, ben incardinato in un sistema di relazione costantemente vivificata tra visone del mondo e vita quotidiana.
-L’opera di Agenore Fabbri, pur lontana nel tempo e nel linguaggio estetico dalle altre due, parla la stessa lingua, quella di una umanità bisognosa di conforto e di un aiuto più grande: l’uovo racchiuso al suo interno, strepitoso omaggio a Lucio Fontana, contiene una speranza di grande attualità.
Il fatto che l’installazione sia ospitata in un Luogo Sacro, dedicato a Santa Maria Maddalena, ci ha spinto ad esporre anche un’altra importante opera in bronzo di Agenore Fabbri, che evoca la sofferenza delle donne. E’ il nostro per dare voce alle donne Iraniane e a tulle le donne che si battono nel mondo per vedere riconosciuto il loro diritto ad una esistenza libera e serena.
EXPANSIS MANIBUS
The literal translation is "with outstretched hands", but this expression is commonly used both in Christian religious literature and in the description of works of art with a religious subject.
The arms are raised, facing the sky.
It is among the most widespread and instinctive ancestral invocations, perhaps the most ancient and authentic way to establish a relationship with the Mystery, which has always been metaphorically placed in heaven.
In this installation she is represented with aesthetic languages far from each other, in time and in places:
- The Hampatong Pantak - or - Patong Pantak figure evokes the guardian of the Dayak people
West Kalimantan, Borneo Island, Indonesia.
Hampatong (from patong, which in the Dayak language means statue) is the term used for the ancestors and protective figures made of hard "iron wood", which the Dayaks of Borneo set up in the burial places as memorial sculptures in honor of the dead, or in front of their community spaces as guardians.
-The Bateba figure, of the Lobi people (Burkina Faso) evokes an ancestral ancestor who has the function of protecting the village through constant communication with the Spirits.
As always happens in non-European cultures, the message entrusted to the statue is clear and declared by the gestural language, well grounded in a system of constantly enlivened relationship between worldview and daily life.
-The work of Agenore Fabbri, although distant in time and aesthetic language from the other two, speaks the same language, that of a humanity in need of comfort and greater help: the egg enclosed within it, an amazing homage to Lucio Fontana, contains a hope of great relevance.
The fact that the installation is housed in a sacred place, dedicated to St. Mary Magdalene, prompted us to exhibit another important bronze work by Agenore Fabbri, which evokes the suffering of women. It is ours to give a voice to Iranian women and to all women who are fighting in the world to see their right to a free and peaceful existence recognized.
