Hello, I was wondering if someone could help me with a problem that's been on my mind lately. Just recently I have taken up residency in a cottage style tent(yes a tent...a modest lifestyle to say the least). Naturally when i go places i tend to worry about whether or not I'll still have a home when i return. Now before you think "this guy lives in a tent, what in the hell could he be worrying about loosing?", the life-style is a chosen one. Little less than a year ago I started studying & practicing Ceremonial Magick. I had just turned 17 at the time and found myself steeped in theory and the gathering of my tools and the assembly of a proper Magickal library, so that i may continue on with The Great Work (in practice as well as theory), when the time came. Needless to say the time has come, and I turn 18 in just a few days. So, a about a week ago a purchased a large tent, and pitched camp in the furthest reaches of my mother's yard of about 2 acres(yes, it's sort of comical i suppose, but i don't yet have the finances for college and am unable to acquire a job until the day of my 18th birthday.). Anyway, now that i have the time, tools, and space to perform the ritual work, I am well on my way. But, like i said when i travel, especially over night trips, i tend to worry whether or not my tools, books and other appliances will be there when I return. Now, I do have the eye-of-Horus hanging at the entrance of the tent and a Eliphas Levi Tetragrammaton pentagram hanging at the rear of the tent. Even though i have much faith in these objects, i do feel the need to know I've done all i can to protect my home and Sacred place of study and practice...Is there anymore I can do? Rituals that can be done?Anything? Thank you for your time & advice. I hope i haven't rambled too much and the consequence losing your interest and hence your help, I just felt my situation should be stated clearly, so that it may not be misinterpreted nor misunderstood...Thank You.

when we go camping we do some stuff underneath the tent, between the fabric of the tent and the ground cover, usually a design made from herbs and salt - keeps everything unaligned with the design out
of course the design is up to you, in my case it would a non-bound five-point star with a circumscription of various entity symbology - however, i'm quite comfortable with these entities about, some might not be so happy until they got used to them banging around all night, but it is very effective - to me it feels like coming home, to others it feels bad like suddenly stumbling on the army of darkness cabin in the deep dark woods - they may stare, wondering at the tingle, but they don't approach
i prefer entities over elementals for protection of areas, cause elementals are like guard dogs, but entities are like mercenaries with shotguns

I only wish i was more advanced in my studies so that I may be able to take full advantage of it...but it still helps very much, so, thank you again.

Lucky to have enough land to put up a tent and do what you have to.
You can buy ''flat pack'' reasonably sized sheds or outhouses nowadays that would do the trick, have one in my garden that I wouldn't mind using as a space if it wasn't full of family stuff... a neighbor of mine has a garage he built out of breeze block, insulated, perfect really. Otherwise you can make a chest to put your goods in, cover it well and hide it outside perhaps even bury it lock it with a door cover it with loose shrubs while the tent stays free of any untoward intrusions, make sure its water proof and you'll be alright....
I'd slant it to ensure water runs off of it if I were you, perhaps dig the hole wall it with plastic then brick, fitting the chest snugly inside the enclosure with a handle in the center of the door so you can either open it or hoist it out when you want. Got my imagination going, man that'd be cool.
Plz post a pic if you decide to do that.

QUOTE(bym @ Aug 19 2008, 01:24 AM) Greetings! I've found that a small figure of Anubis very effective, especially outdoors....that is, if you don't mind large, black dogs cruising the area. Es has the right of it though...don't mess with the elementals for watch duty. They are extremely basic, which can lead to misunderstanding them entirely. Good journey to you, I wish you well! A tent life can be very rewarding. I used to backpack into the Catskills and the Adirondacks for camping and experienced quite alot of devic energies! (Read up on Findhorn when/if you get a chance). (IMG: style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) Thank you for your help and your wish of wellness, it is returned = )

QUOTE(esoterica @ Aug 19 2008, 12:32 PM) i asked my friend what we used to use and both of us remembered something different, but here's the gist of what we think might work for you
go to the grocery store and get a big blue cardboard carton of non-iodized salt and a cheap bottle of dried rosemary spice
you could also add a bottle of dried thyme and dried sage, and if they have a bottle of coriander then get that too (as a marigold sub for bug repellent)
lay the ground cover, then pour a continuous ring of the salt around the tent edges and across the floor then lay the tent over it - no holes in the ring and your stuff should be within it
salt - astral protection
rosemary - negative energy protection
thyme - time
sage - wisdom
coriander - bug repellent
that should last awhile, but you better check it after rainstorms to be sure it didn't wash away (lots of stories about that)
you would combine this physical charm with a deity's power, as in communication with the particular deity (mine would be of lunar aspect, but to each his own) to protect it with some offered trade you both found acceptable hey bym! - findhorn, like in scotland? Thank you again for all your help, it's very kind of you to continuously assist me with my situation. Best of wishes to you (IMG: style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) You've been a great help.
