This is not a strange question by any means. Here is my RECOMMENDATION ONLY based on the writings of Dr. Lisiewski and my EXPERIENCE: Do no such thing under ANY circumstances in Ceremonial Magic (since this is where you posted this, I assume this is what you are working from)! The body must be completely cloaked in this work. The ONLY things showing must be head and the hands which are the visible agents of God on earth through which God works in and through Man. The alb MUST cover those parts of the body which represents 'evil,' the animal drives, carnal pleasures, 'the process of defacation, dirtiness or uncleanliness' (if you are approaching the God of the Grimoires with the innocence thus required to attain what you wish and destroy the enemy). If you do not, this will bring dirtiness, or uncleanliness into your work (again, IF you are working from the Grimoires, or Grammars of Magic). In Old System Magic there is a reason for the seeming 'irrationalities' and 'unreasonable' requests. If you use a real 'phallus' as you say you will seriously introduce unholiness to your work--mark my words now--you will attain more problems than you will be able to handle and they will merit you nothing. Don't try this, please--follow the rules. If the book from which you are working asks for a hazel wand, then go out and find the wood for it as instructed--do not substitute or profane Magic as the new age are SO willing to do!
Most Sincerely,
Mr. Curi
