Transvocation? Options

We have so many words for magical operations:
1.Summoning
2.Invocation
3.Evocation
4.Conjuration
5.Calling forth...
But what is transvocation? I encountered this term and it seems strange to me...

Invocation = To call into self
Evocation = To call outside self

Transvocation = To call from one place to another?

I think trasvocation could be considered maybe a more inclusive term. Trans- generally implies movement across space.

My best guess. Personally, i've never encountered the term before, but if it is an inclusive term as it seems to be, most people probably simply are used to referring to the means of transvocation - that being the terms you sited above.

yay english.

Transvocation is a method of summoning where you draw the spirit into yourself in a manner similer to possession but you still have semi control of yourself. If you cannot tell it is not for the faint of heart.

Greetings!
I will warn you from the onset that this will be lengthy. Please try not to use the quote function when responding unless you can use it sparingly...
I must admit that I had not heard of 'transvocation' before this thread was posted. I have been practicing for over 50 years...
I would, of course, think like Vagrant Dreamer when I crossed this word. We are partially correct from what I've managed to glean from the internet sites I've visited. I will leave this to you to slog through...it has some very salient points worth looking at! I don't happen to agree with it all and am hoping that this will spark some real debate/discussion. I will try to give credit where it is due and so on....now, to the subject at hand.
Transvocation

Transvocation - A method whereby the magician acts either as a conduit or a vector(carrier) and causes a godform (or demon or whatever) to A) inhabit an object or B) possess a person.

Some useful web sites that I Googled for "Transvocation":

This was taken from the TLOK website:

There are five mind-states that the Summoner utilizes in the execution of his art. The most fundamental and basic of these is disassociation, which involves the Summoner disidentifying with his usual egocentric personality structure, being able to observe it from a point of detachment. This both protects him from being bound in obsessions upon particular beings and gives him the flexibility of consciousness necessary for the other four states. The most important of the other four is what is known as ‘transvocation.’ This occurs when the Summoner identifies with a summoned entity rather than his own personality, but unlike full possession never results in loss of control or loss of consciousness. The Summoner simply gains access to the perspective and powers of the transvoked entity depending upon how successful and complete the transvocation is. The next two states are those best suited to classical evocation and invocation. In evocation, the Summoner adopts an entirely impersonal consciousness, and by shifting his perception, aligns his will with his environment in such a way as to facilitate the manifestation of an entity externally. In invocation, he aligns his consciousness in such a way that the entity manifests internally, within the mind. Having experienced these four altered conditions of consciousness, the Summoner will discover that what seems to most to be ‘normal’ consciousness is actually a fifth state called the Ipseic (from Latin Ipsus, meaning ‘self.’) The Ipseic state is the state of complete identification with a personality or point of view to the point of overcoming all disassociation. Experiencing the Ipseic state deliberately functions as a release of tension for the Summoner, as well as a supreme protection against potentially hostile influences.

This was taken from a Satanic styled website (please don't dismiss this as it is rather well thought out and is useful):

the Five States of Summoning
(revised, 1/11/06)

Summoning without ritual uses states of mind, similar to (psychic)trance,
to manifest and communicate with beings. This is called Direct Summoning
and it becomes a very usefull tool to use with all types of spiritual
beings.

Direct summoning does not make the demon obey under command; rather it
is more like an effort of co-operation with the demon, spirit or being
so that both may benefit from the interaction.

Demons, and other (spiritual) beings usually have a specific nature,
and thier nature is thier purpose. A demon is more likely to respond to
requests that are within thier ablility. For instance, a demon of lust
is more likely to handle "situatons of lust", because it allows for the

demon the chance to manifest it's will, while the summoner manifests thier will at
the same time, through the actions of the demons. This enables for the development of a kind
of pact which benefits both the demon and the summoner. The Summoner becomes the director
of the spiritual energies, and shows the way to the target. The demon will obey for it is a
chance for the demon to manifest its purpose in the physical world.

The most basic way to achieve communication with demonic entites, is to create a psychic
connection, by becomming the essence of the very force that is called upon. For instance,
in the situation of the destruction of an enemy, a demon of destruction could be contacted,
by the summoner becomming the essence of chaos and destruction. The demon answers the call
and produces results.

Instead of ritualistic purification, as done by ritual magick, the summoner becomes the
essence of thier desire through focus and will, esentially eminating this energy like a
beacon of energy and purpose. This forms an essential link with the demon, without casting
a circle or using ritual instruments.

The proper demon, or legion of demons are attracted to this energy; it sees its purpose,
acknowledges this, and manifests its will in the physical realm according to its nature.
While it focuses on the target as determined by the summoner, the demon ignoring the
summoner as an already pure essence, or source; it has no need to hurt the summoner as
the summoner is recognised as a (metaphysical) reflection of the very essences and
purpose of the demon.

This is how the summoner survives without being consumed by either demons or desire.

How does a summoner use these energies, without becomming prey to thier own desires?
By using a basic method of detachment, or dis-association. This state of mind allows for
the summoner to act and react through a vantage point of observation and seperation.
Within this state of mind, the summoner becomes an observer of thier self and being,
detaching from desires and experiening reality through inaction, without interference
from the ego, or influence from a demon who is trying to influence personal will.

Being able to enter and maintain this perspective is very usefull in summoning. While
in this state it is much easier to not be influenced by desire. Also, this state serves
as an immediate escape if the need is there. It will allow you to enter other states of
summoning with ease, due to its nature of detachment that allows for a deeper perception
of spiritual realities. It is the basis of (psychic) direct summoning.

The easiest state of communication to enter is transvocation. This state of mind allows for
the summoner to take on the intelligence and perspective of the demon, while still
maintaing free will and conscious action. Transvocation will allow the demon to communicate
subconsciously through visions, realisations, signs, dreams, words and even experiences
that relate to the nature of the office of the demon the summoner is working with.
Perception of reality is literally shared with this demonic intelligence.

For example, upon calling a demon of lust through a transvocation method, the summoner would
go through a calling upon purpose and meaning of lust (according to the situation) to incite
this energy from within. Then the focus is shifted to association with this desire and the
demon that the summoner wishes to contatct. Then, there is a period of identification of
the demon, communication and questioning that brings answers as percieved through psychic
(telepathic) interaction, visions and also, dreams that relate to the summoner's situation
or request. Desires are then manifested, quickly, depending on the level of psychic
communication and understaning between summoner and demon, and the level of experience of
the summoner.

Signs and symbols of the presence of this demon within daily interactions may be experienced.
Some of these things could be dismissed as coincidence or even subconscious manifestation,
but the experienced summoner sees that this is how entities communicate. There could
be nightmares, disturbing thoughts or feelings of fear or doubt; this is where
dis-association comes in handy. Also, you might experience poltergeist activity or
continually feel a presence while you go through a transvocation. This is to be expected
and as you spend more time summoning you will find similar systems of signs and symptoms
repeatedly. These signs are unique and individual to all summoners, so learning how to
read signs is an important part of being aware during your transvocation.

Also, periods of enlightenment can be achieved through this method, but the deeper one goes
into gnosis and communication the more the line between transvocation and evocation, or
invocation are crossed.

Evocation is the next stage; this is where the summoner crosses the boundaries of telepathic
interaction and actually manifests the being in the astral or even to the physcial. This
can be achieved, once again through dis-association of self, will and even environment,
effectively dissloving the boundaries between the physical and the spiritual. Invocation is
similar, in that the idea of the self is totally disolved and is filled with the essence of
the being or spirit. This allows for complete and total posession, and loss of personal
being and awareness. The summoners will is replaced with that of the demon's.

After all these states of being, the one thing that remains untouched is the self. This is
called, the Ipseic from the latin meaning, "self". This is the absolute essence of your
being in it's divine (natural?) state. It does not use states of association or
dis-association. The Ipseic is the actual self, the seat of the soul. This state serves as
a mental escape for the summoner when it is needed. In fact, a demon or any other entity
can not harm the summoner while they are in this state of being. This is because there is
nothing to bend the will of the summoner. Existence is the totality of this state, and
existence has no other purpose besides being.

At this point there is no need for banishing. In fact, when working with a direct method
such as this a demon would find a banishing to be insulting and useless. You must find
methods you can use to cut the ties, such as total ending of communication between you
and the entity, seperation, detachment from all desires.

When all these states are experienced, a new world opens up for the summoner. This is
a world where the (inner) will of the summoner stretches forth and becomes an extension
and a reflection of the self. This spirit "self" called a familiar and this familiar can act
within the world according to your will, because it is a being made of your will.
It is, esentially this spiritual extension of the self, that produces a total
manifestation of desires which reflect upon reality. When this state of awarness is
achieved, the summoner is aligned with the flow of (magick) reality. The effects produced
can be amazing.

Quite long winded but you get the drift... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/face08.gif)

that was very enlightening...
now if transvocation can do this what is the moment to do it?
before the evocation,after? before the invocation after?
is the genie in a bottle a transvocation?

would it be proper to say that invocations of the houses of assiah, are an example of transvocation? Or am I missing the point.

would it be proper to say that invocations of the houses of assiah, are an example of transvocation? Or am I missing the point.

No that would be invocation. Transvocation would involve an intellegence of some kind coming into you.

I remember Venus666 on OF.com she used this method exclusively .. All her posts were deleted in the last hack but i managed to find the Cached posts through Google.. As Nero pointed out this not for the faint of heart or for Amateurs. I am not sure if it is appropraite to qoute this but before this info gets lost forever here it is

Upon popular request I am writing this article on the Art of Transvocation. Venus666

This means that the state of transvocation is like invocation, but the summoner retains thier consciousness, and it is like evocation because the presence can be felt and there is much communication between the entity and the participant - Transvocation is a state of being where the summoner retains consciousness and is able to make descisions without being influenced by the entity. I will try to explain its meaning and use, and the process of this state. The I will give an example of my latest transvocation, the summoning of Belial.

There are five states of summoning. The first is evocation, which is calling a spirit to appear in spiritual form (as in a triangle or circle) The second state is Invocation, which literally calls the demon within your body (some say it radiates outwards from within, but this is a matter of perspective) the third state is transvocation, which uses the personality and perspective of a demon to gain knowledge and insight. The fourth state is a state of dissasociation, where the summoner is able to remove thier conscoiusness from the states of summoning, and is able to seperate themselves allowing them to temporarily escape. The fifth and most important state is the state of the SELF often labeled the Ipseic, which describes the actual self, the inner being that one will realise while messing with these states. this is the "pure and perfect" state of self that a demon, angel or god can not touch, and it acts as a release of tension and a backup plan incase you feel youre being manipulated. Full, personal understanding of these states is only gained thru the practice of them.
Once you practice these states you will begin to see how reality itself is not static. You can manipulate your own reality by letting your mind dip into these realms. you may begin to feel "Lost" or even "meaningless" after messing with these states for a while. This is why dissassociation is so important to the summoner.
Being able to dissassociate from yourself will allow you to escape when a spirit tries to tempt you into doing something that you do not want to do. It also allows you to step back and actually see whats going on, to see the whole picture at once. You can not be afraid to enter these states of mind, because without a shift in consciousness nothing can happen. That is the key, allowing yourself to experience these shifts. When you learn how to dis-associate, you will also begin to learn about the Ipseic, the self. You will, thru disassociation be able to see the self as you ARE, and all it takes is this moment of realisation to let you enter this state at any time you need.


Transvocation can be called a direct method of summoning, because the only tool one needs to make it work, is the power of the mind. It is a mental state that you use to open the gateway of communication between you and a spirit, and the spirt realm. This state of being lies between evocaton and invocation, and it constantly wavers between these two consciousnesses. (it is the easiest state of summoning to enter)
While you are transvoking a demon you will have access to the demon's (spiritual) perspectives. The first few times you go thru this it will blow your mind. Heres an example: while transvoking Asmodeus, I had concentrated upon Lust,. when he began to appear in my life, i was pointed at situations where lust was the determining factor. The spirit literally peeled away layers around me and let me see into other peoples intentions. These intentions were, of corse, colored by lust. Suddenly, the meanings of situations became clear to me, with lust being the motivation behind people's actions. Then after it showed me the why's of lust it showed me HOW people are manipulated by it. Some info was also revealed as to the very nature of lust itself. It was enlightening to say the least. All the while I had verification that this actually was a demon, and also, I was able to ask it several questions which the answers were given to me in the form of a riddle..(ie theres no way I was just imagining it, this was an actual interaction, and it was awesome!!)

The use of transvocation can make direct communication possible for you, and there will be no need to draw protective circles or to use fancy evocations to "attempt" to contact a spirit. A sucessful transvocation can last for a few hours up to a few days, or even weeks- depending on how long you let the spirit stay with you. If you need to break away, you must begin by dissassociating and then entering the Ipseic. Without this, it will feel like there is no escape from thier "reality". Remember that reality itself is like water, it is not stable and it can be shaped by your will and desires..


Transvocation, this state(of being) begins by making a direct link to the demon.. it works well with godforms as well as independent demons/spirits/angels. Anything that has a sentience can be communicated with by this method. Simply by contacting the spirit the gateway is opened.
Concentrating on the essence of what they are and what they represent often is the best way. For instance, Belial is represented by greed- and while I was making the connection to him with my mind, I tried to consume myself with the energies of greed. In this way he was compelled to come to me upon the principality that like attracts like. If i had been summoning a being of lust I would have concentrated upon "lust" , the actual energies of this archetype. Doing it this way automatically places you in command. This is because you become the director and are a participant at the same time. The demon has no choice but to obey you. Each demon, god or being will have it's own unique way of interacting with you, and you can use this to verify if you are actually dealing with the demon that you want.
The communication between you and the demon is made thru psycic images, words that immediately come to your mind thru the subconscious and, occurence of events that (seem) miraculous. Do not doubt for one moment that a demon does not have its own agenda, because they do. They are only acting on thier natural intentions, whatever that be. They are creatures of divinity, and thus they work in divine ways and methods. ( the terminology here of "Divine beings" descibes a purely spiriutal force)..Thus as a divine being they will prod and cojole you to get you to invoke them, so that they can experience thier divinity thru your essence. (this is true for MOST beings) I trust no spirit, and as long as I dont give them permissions to take over my being they are still compelled to act on my behalf, simply because I AM and I WILL it to do so. I am of the firm belief that nothing can outlast the human will, not even that of a god.
Once you reach the state of transvocation, you may have to re enter it every few hours, if ift dosent just consume your mind.. Depends on how long you work with them. The more time you put into it, the more you get out of it.

Transvocation can be said to be the state of being that takes aspects of invocation and evocation, and uses it as one process.

Transvocation can also lend itself to the state of gnosis, and while maintaing your balence between consciousness you can share your "awareness" with that of a demon. Its uses are limitless once you realise the possibilities of opening yourself to other realms of awareness like this but, remember-- when you open yourself to these states of summoning you will literally be opening a pandoras box and youll see what I mean when you realise that NOTHING is like what you thought it was. You will feel like youre in a whole new world. Your not, you just learned to see it in a whole new way.

I promised to tell of the Transvocation of Belial so, here goes. Some parts edited upon the respect of this being that I had dealings with. I kept a record for the first few days so that I could have an account of this. Let me warn you, those of you who CLAIM to be OPEN-MINDED.. I work in a stripclub and have for 3 years. This type of job is very social, and most of my night is talking people into having a good time. This type job has allowed me to readily mess with peoples heads and has given me the opportunity to exerise my psychic skills while at work. I also read Tarot for people in the club.. but heres the real deal. My account of Belial


Transvocation of the Spirit Belial 6/16/05

I found my book, the Goetia, which I had not used since last year. I read thru some of the pages and I came across a page that was bookmarked. It was bookmarked with one of the Club Topic free passes. Intrestingly enough this is one of the reasons that I wanted to evoke in the first place.
On that page was the 68th spirit, Belial. I have worked with this spirit before and the last time I worked with him, was when I worked at Topic before. What happened before was interesting and it sets the groundwork for what is to come. He is a mighty, powerful spirit ready to help those who will align with him.
He indeed helped me during a time of transvocation but I had failed by giving in during an opportunity. I had actually failed myself by giving into greed at the moment of opportunity, foolishly forgetting the consequences in the face of gain. I discontinued the transvocation, seeing it as too risky of a game to play at the time. Lesson learned.

Now, I am ready to face this spirit again; and with fervor. There is nothing like the spirit of Belial, he is the lie within the truth. The shining darkness. He has once again called to me.

Well I began, by studying the goetia once again. No other spirit called to me like him, his radiance and his brilliance. I got out my paints and I prepared a canvas. I found refrence materials and I began another tribute to the Lord Belial.

The first day, I began by working on the drawing and doing the preliminary transvocation. I recieved visions of his grace and potency. He is incredible. According to the goetia he rides in a chariot of fire, and is actually two angelic beings in one. I think this description is just a metaphor for his true nature, which is the forward movement of life thru the veil of deception and truth.

I was asked to do a ritual and to draw the sigil. Something told me to get my citrine crystal. Aafter I chose that, I was given a sign to choose another crystal as a wand, my quartz.. I went to the summoning room and my cat Shadows followed me. I then broke out the bats blood ink and the parchment. The cat stood guard at the door while I drew the sigil. Something told me to place it on the altar till I could bury it. I wa given instruction how and when to bury said sigil.
The room was on fire from astral flames. I felt a tremendous energy and pressure about me, like I was in a capsule. The room was enflamed. Temperature was moderate. Then I took my crystal, and drew the magick circle from left to right. I then sat down and drew another sigil with pen on a piece of parchment. This was the pact for later. I began to felt hot, dizzy and tired. Then something told me to stand up and call the quarters with my wand. I said the 4 names: gabriel Michel Asrael SE, SW, NW. As I drew each quarter I could feel actual heat come off my wand.
AMazingly, later I found out that the same names I used for this are a part of the Banishing ritual of the Pentagram. Well afterwards, I headed for bed, and I was really tired.

This method, altho very impromptu helped me to mentally concentrate on bringing the demon belial back into my life.


2nd day 6/17
I began work on the painting again. I went to my altar, placed the painting ont he altar and lit a candle. I then said outloud that I was offering this as a gift to belial. A gift and a tribute. Some of the visions that I had for the past two days have been amazing and enlightening. He comes as a robed man, bald, tall menacing eyes with light behind them (as if his eyes are light) he has a dark aura.

(Note-This is probably just my way of seeing him)

His presnece is that of grace, power emminance. He is amazing, Ihave only touched the surface of the potential of this being. You must be self reliant strong to reach this being. I have seen him as a woman, as an old man with a menacing face, a bearded old man. I have also seen him as a Lion Very regal and stately. Also, as a dead being with a hollow face horrid- but not enought to frighten me(perhaps this was a test of some sort).
Evidences:
things had been moved in the ritual room next day
Emination and presence of spirit.
heat of wand
Voice and Vision of the astral
Familiar joined me (my cat)

6/18
OK. Last night was the full moon. I went to work and I wore my fire crystal, my Citirine. I was sitting at the bar, and the FIRST customer who walked thru the door tookme to the VIP in 5mins. I was shocked. He was tall, bald, built, he looked very similar to the creature of a man that I am painting of belial. His features were so similar and his eyes were a light blue. When I danced for him I read his aura and energised his Manipura chakra, and I sent him visuals. I knew the visuals and the energies worked because I saw his reaction immediately.
(Yes this was, a spell taught to me in that instant that only would have worked in that instance.!!)

My chain broke with my crystal when I was dancing on the stage.

Later on, I ran into a customer that I had danced for a while ago. He was an older man, and we got along nicely. He saw my pentacle ring and asked me If I was a witch,. I told him that I read tarot and I studied the occult. He said "I like witches". When we went to the VIP I was on the second dance and he said "Hmm well have to do a sacrifice sometime" I cant believe he said that.. for real......I was in shock at that point. I relate that statement to the issues that I have with belial.

Also, there was a new dancer who is alot prettier and friendlier than Marissa. I really enjoyed watching the jealousy rise up in her. it was a moment of greatness. (another spell was revealed to me, the answer to how Id manipualte hER) Also, Marissa and Alana both came in at the same time and hung out together working tables. According to rumor these are the two Whores at the club. Funny how they ended up together. Like attracts like in a situation like this. By watching how the situation unfolded and developed I learned new ways to use magick. Several spells revealed using the nature of lust, desire, greed jealosy..

Another bonus is the new DJ that they hired. Hopefully it will be a good descision for the club to hire him. This is what Ive been asking for!

I made more money than anyone else that night and I noticed a few things that had changed with the situation at club topic. So far so good.
Evidences:
man who undoubtedly looked like the same man I am painting. Eerie coincidence?
"well have to do a sacrifice sometime"
My crystal's chain broke. I see this as a sign of somethng?. Perhaps no crystals at work.
Alana and Marissa in the same boat. YES
Jealousy burning within Marissa.secret to her weakness and downfall.
select customers who really PAID.
New DJ
6/19
I had a great night at work. Several revelations came to me throughout the day and night. Belial at one point was a vision of a lion. Beautiful lion. I worked onmy painting adding in a new background. I cant wait unitl it is finished. I am using the art as an offering. I am seeing results, not fantastical results but certainly clever nonetheless. I feel its presence. I had a good time at work. Felt the influence and saw results. Marissa tried to cut in on me at the table I was sitting at, but I called another dancer over to the table and we both danced for him, and got tipped to. HA BITCH this was not likely to happen, so to me it was a divine act ...manifestation

Evidences
Marissa got cut off by me in a nasty way. This was exacting revenge.


well as youll see, from my perspective my life for the next few days took on an extra meaning, and much was revealed to me thru knowledge and magick. It's now been a coulple of weeks,(another moon) and since, I have not buryed the sigil, but I have made another one and burned it. I also suffered thru a depression for not followiing my own advice and dissassociating. Im talking deep depression, life is worthless kinda stuff. Down to the atomic Level, literally. This spirit, BELIAL is nothing to mess with and if he gets ahold of you in the wrong way he can make you feel as if you are worthless. The whole thing is akin to enterning the abyss of self hatred and returning with wisdom. Maybe this is how he teaches, this is his method. He literally tried to get me to worship him, also, during this time, but I replied that worship was a pointless gesture. he could not argue.
But anyway.

I had a breakthru lately and since then, I have been sent a familiar to work with at work. This familiar is in the guise of a woman, who I have had some fortunate events happen for me while working with her and also she is a tool of manipulation for me. Please pardon my satanic nature, as this is how I manifest my desires in this world.

Frater Manjet usually uses the term ot relate to meeting a being half-way - i.e. you enter a Watchtower, then call upon the Angel in question to appear.
