THE INGREDIENTS USED
IN THE PERFORMANCE
OF SATANIC MAGIC
C. Imagery
THE adolescent boy who takes great care in carving, on a tree, a heart containing his
and his love object's initials; the little chap who sits by the hour drawing his conception
of sleek automobiles; the tiny girl who rocks a scuffed and ragged doll in her arms, and
thinks of it as her beautiful little baby - these capable witches and warlocks, these
natural magicians, are employing the magical ingredient known as imagery, and the
success of any ritual depends on it.
Children, not knowing or caring if they possess artistic skill or other creative talents,
pursue their goals through the use of imagery of their own manufacture, whereas "civilized"
adults are much more critical of their own creative efforts. This is why a "primitive" magician
can utilize a mud doll or crude drawing to successful advantage in his magical ceremonies. To
HIM, the image is as accurate as needs be.
Anything which serves to intensify the emotions during a ritual will contribute to its success.
Any drawing, painting, sculpture, writing, photograph, article of clothing, scent, sound,
music, tableau, or contrived situation that can be incorporated into the ceremony will serve
the sorcerer well.
Imagery is a constant reminder, an intellect-saving device, a working substitute for the real
thing. Imagery can be manipulated, set up, modified, and created, all according to the will of
the magician, and the very blueprint that is created by imagery becomes the formula which
leads to reality.
If you wish to enjoy sexual pleasures with the one of your choice, you must create the
situation you desire on paper, canvas, by the written word, etc., in as overstated a way as
possible, as an integral part of the ceremony.
If you have material desires, you must gaze upon images of them - surround yourself with the
smells and sounds conducive to them - create a lodestone which will attract the situation or
thing that you wish!
To insure the destruction of an enemy, you must destroy them by proxy! They must be shot,
stabbed, sickened, burned, smashed, drowned, or rent in the most vividly convincing manner!
It is easy to see why the religions of the right-hand path frown upon the creation of "graven
images". The imagery used by the sorcerer is a working mechanism for material reality, which
is totally opposed to esoteric spirituality.
A Greek gentleman of magical persuasion once wanted a woman who would satisfy his every
desire, and so obsessed with the unfound object of his dreams was he, that he went about
constructing such a wonderful creature. His work completed, he fell so convincingly and
irrevocably in love with the woman he had created that she was no longer stone, but mortal
flesh, and alive and warm; and so the magus, Pygmalion, received the greatest of magical
