First Servitor, questions....?? Options

I created my first servitor about a week or so ago with the tast of being a Watcher. I only gave him this task so it would be something simple for my first attempt, and i had the source come from my energy supply. I gave it an current unlimited date to be around until i felt fit. I wanna know how I can tell if I have correctly done the creation, I haven't to yet tried to speak with him through meditation, but I have seen slight open-eyed visions of him while i glance at windows (somewhat like him on the window looking out to me) I'm not sure if its in my head, or if thats his way of showing me he is here. Also, is it fine to use myself as an energy source for him? (since he is created from my own energy, I thought it would be fine) Finally, is it alright to give it an unlimited time, and just banish it whenever I feel is fine? (as long as I don't keep it around forever)

Theft . . . there are some threads already on Tarot, so I won't replay any of that (a search will bare it out). I tend to use the Thoth deck these days (with Duquetts book), but thats just now, later is then (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

For the I Ching . . . I use both Wilhelm/Baynes I Ching and R. L. Wing's books. But I can't honestly tell you if they are the best . . . just the ones I use. (there are some good web sites too). The I Ching is one of those areas though, that can get as deep as one wants . . . its a rabbit hole of Alice proportions, which is great . . . but can get distracting too.

Kinjo has a doc on the pendulum . . . seems as good as any. But, the pend is so simple, it really doesn't take much documentation to use . . . just practice, like any other occult pursuit.
