Me: “Jedan hoesta noc ra Botis… Jedan hoesta noc ra Botis… Jedan…”
Botis: “Click over there on the menu to add a new post.”
(I chuckled about this. It wasn’t the start of our conversation. I let him pick out some incense before I started the calling, so he was clearly already here)
B: “Good. Can’t have my words be lost to memory. Especially a fading memory (I forget a lot of stuff like this when I sleep)”
B: “You’re looking at this like it’s just another relationship conflict resolution spirit (of the week)”
M: “You know I was. I didn’t delay it or skip over. One doesn’t have to go in order, but I did.”
B: “You were afraid you’d forget where you were and screw up with one or more spirits. (True, absolutely) A fair concern.”
B: “But this will not just be about reconciliation or emotional healing or healing those things from others. I will show you how to rupture.”
(I was confused since there was no hint of this earlier in our short, infrequent exchanges. There are a lot of spirits that can do this and wondered about his ‘flavor’ of it.)
B: “I know.”
He left.
I took yesterday off, largely because I wasn’t motivated to bein in ritual. I do have those moments, but today, Botis surprised me with a ritual right out of the gate. Here’s the picture.
There are a few things that are important. First, his sigil has to be between the two names, which are the people involved in the relationship. The solid lines signify that he is keeping them apart intentionally, not once, but twice. Naturally, you would start this with a calling to Botis to get his agreement or ask for a sign of it, if you are unsure.
(Note – I’ve not found Botis to be particularly frightening or “intense” to be around, but I also would never mistake that for weakness or lack of ability)
The lines to keep them apart aren’t meant to signify a sudden, short blowup, but more of a distancing. They’re “more permanent” than a sudden outburst, which may result in just as sudden of a reconciliation.
He didn’t give me a timeframe or directly say when to burn this, but I know what he means. This is to be poured into until you feel it’s enough. You can ask for a sign from Botis when enough intent and energy has been poured into it (notice I didn’t say emotion). Then burn it. If you’re like me, you’ll make a blood offering, but I would only do so on his sigil and not on the participants names.
I was going to make up the extra day today, but he indicated this was enough and seemed quite pleased with the drawing and write up.
I was wrong, here we go.
The task is about what one can learn from Botis about relationships and similar and he wants to continue with the dissolution information. I realize I’m hearing a translation of what he’s saying, so keep that in mind. It’s relevant somehow and enough so that I was supposed to state it.
B: “Relationships come together, regardless of distance, from a thread of energy connecting one point to another point. It doesn’t really matter how that point got started (attraction of opposites, similarities, someone else connecting, etc…), but all can be dealt with in that way. This is the same way these relationships can be poisoned.”
(My mind wouldn’t shut off and asked about the construct/egregore created from this relationship. He didn’t like being interrupted, but continued)
B: “The construct between them isn’t as useful as one might think. It is, but it isn’t the foundational link. There is a foundational link one must also look for and take care of. For how many times do these links, relationships get reestablished after they have been severed in ritual? There is a stronger, but more ephemeral link that must be looked for. “
B: “This is why cord cutting with entities is usually more effective than just doing it on one’s own. They can find this and it may not be in the ‘present’”.
He left.
That last line is one of the most important. It may not be in the ‘present’. This suggests many things and I’m a little uncomfortable going into what I’m thinking here. I like to keep my Science and Magic further apart than this. I don’t think Physics, even Quantum Physics, is the answer here. It’s just the closest terminology that we have of describing that which can be seen, but isn’t understood. And since most magicians sound like Kindergartners talking to preschooler in this area, I won’t touch it.
As an aside, I have been flirting here and there with gathering and using energy from different times in my rituals. So far, this has been within my own lifetime and within my own experiences. The unknown cascade of what could happen if things were actually changed is what keeps me hesitant, for sure. But the majority of my practice is accessing different energies from VERY different places, some not on this rock we live on, and experimenting with those. But that’s as far as I’m willing to go here.
It can be a horrifying thought of cascading repercussions if the past isn’t the past, but for now, I’ll limit my internal thoughts towards that link. Maybe he meant dampening it. Maybe he meant searching for the anchor points of it, even if it isn’t obviously present. Maybe it mutates and goes deeper and isn’t seen quite as externally. Maybe the link is more direct, instead of cord-like…. Something to ponder, for sure.
(Botis returned and said some other things about my thoughts on it. Chiefly, I should be looking into the ‘hidden’, but present more direct links when searching for that anchoring connection. For now)
Once again, I was trying to figure out what “problem” to ask Botis to help solve and was reminded of someone at work with an attendance problem. There are other things to also not like, such as incessant talking about nonsense like some teenager, but after thinking all that I felt an accepting nod and his presence left. Not sure, but just about anything would help with either of those areas.
Aaaaaaa
B: “My Lord, we are done.”
M: “We are? Did I d enough?”
B: “Did you? (I didn’t know) There were several times this week that you didn’t rise to the bait where conflict awaited. Conflict you could’ve handled in various ways, for sure, but not without hardship as an outcome for most.”
(This was true)
B: “Kindly blood and burn my sigil.”
M: “Okay, but how did I really learn about splitting things up and fracturing relationships and similar.”
B: “The actions you took and the way you did them. You side-stepped the obvious traps, provided alternative means and suggestions that nullified their power, and then bluntly ignored that which wasn’t (far reaching, that had genuine future effects, but looked like it) It will make more sense shortly (at your place of work and with your property management personnel)”
M: “Thank you, Botis.”
Hail Botis!
