Spiritual Entuty Says He's My "father" Options

Hi, first I want to say thank you for your interest and possible help,I've been a lurker here for a long time and... I could use all the help I can get .

A little about me. I'm a ceremonial magician, I started out with The GD , became a Thelemite a few years ago and I've become entranced with Grimoiric magick and old hermetic texts since. Let's just say I've become quite a fan of Lisiewski , having been raised Catholic and being sent to Catholic school I actually resonate quite well with the religious tone of grimoires. So, I've been around the block, but I'm still confused , so I ask for wiser folk to off their 2 cents.


I've had a "shadow man "around me since I was very ,very small. I could sense a darkness coming from my hallway when I was 3. I call it " The hallway at the center of the Universe", lol because there is no apparent reason for a haunting of this sort. The house is just an old ( 40's) California cracker box style house. no history I know of , anyway the entity is...well if it was human it was long ago.

I've dreamed of a cloaked figure since I was a small child,I've night Terrors as long( mostly gone now)

I'll relate my first remembered dream.

small dark creatures are tearing at me , with despair and agony , The cloaked figure tells me " call for Daddy and I'll save you". I didn't know this man, he didn't look like my dad and so I resisted..but at 5 I could only hold out so long. Eventually I called him and he shewed the things away then held me close in a pleasurable embrace ...


Under the cloak he appears Blond, very tall ( perhaps 7 ft.) with a perpetual smirk. He is very interested in Karma,mine and others and seems to have the ability to give people their Karma...slowly or quickly . No more than what they deserve but it can be meted out gently or roughly. He's quite witty and can be terrifying or loving.

He swears to be my " true father " and has since I was a small child .

I've done quite a bit of research and I plan on evoking him personally ( I may have found a NAME ) but I don't want to rely on my most certainly skewed view of him.

If anyone has any thoughts I'd be very interested to hear..and most grateful!


Thank you very much,

Hi Rebelle,

Thanks for sharing the very interesting story. Lots of archetypal images here! In general I'd echo esoterica's comments to "sit back and enjoy." If it becomes too much, you can defend yourself with the LBRP or can ask "it" to go away by the divine names of the almighty. Your "true father" seems to be a positive force in your life though, and it sounds like a good spiritual experience.

As you probably know already, a magician is supposed to test all of the entities that he or she encounters. When you do evoke this spirit, I'd recommend testing it very critically with questions. I'm sure there's a lot you want to know from the spirit that you'll think to ask!

I hate to bring this up, but it's always a good idea to assume that the spirit you're interacting with isn't telling the full truth, or isn't what it claims to be. But for instance, maybe another spirit will appear and impersonate your true father before he actually shows up. Just putting it out there!

Have you practiced any magick and/or evocation before? Not sure how far you went with the G.D. and/or Thelema...

having been raised Catholic and being sent to Catholic school I actually resonate quite well with the religious tone of grimoires.

MUHAHA! Yes, me too. I hadn't thought about it that way, but it's SO TRUE!!!!!!
