Evocation Of Zulum Options

I had a successful evocation of the 33ed name of Marduk from the Necronomicon tonight. I have worked with Nec spirits before but always using classic methods or the by using the spell book but this time I decided to use the methods outlined in the Nec itself. I was more than a little nervous since using the watcher is something I said I would never do but I figured it was well past time for me to do so.

I have been prepairing for this ritual for several days. Mainly by compiling a hand written copy of the Necronomicon with special alterations of my own in a nice journal book. I took a ritual bath and said the Preliminary Purification Invocation to Ishtar found inside the Nec. I put on my ritual garments and wrapped a silver amulet of protection around my right wrist. I purified my working space by using the invocation also found in the book and spread salt sixty times as required.

Instead of using lime or flour I drew upon the concrete the double circle and the mandal using side walk chalk along with the seals of the four gates. I then sat in my circle and prayed for protection and success. I followed this with the LBRP and the LBRH using the rod of Lapis Lazuli as a wand. I then finished up with a hermetic invocation. From the light of a single candle I faced each direction and recited the invocations of the four gates. As this was done I could feel a cone of force pressing down and around me. Interesting feeling.

I sprinkled water as a testament to the covenant to Enki. I had prepared a bowl for the sacrifice to the watcher, filling it with pine chips and far too much lighter fluid. I lit the incense and threw a match into the offering bowl. I had a nice two foot flame to greet me as I recited the conjuration of the fire god. Once it was finished the bowl began to spit flames all around. I threw in the sacrifice of bread and Olieribos grass. After the conjuration of the watcher things began to get interesting. For about two seconds which seemed like an eternity after I finished the call I actually was beginning to think nothing was gonna happen. The suddenly every insect in ear shot went silent. The watcher had arrived. He didn’t seem to have a form from what I could tell but he was constantly going around the circle in both directions at once very fast. The double circle seemed to swell and get fat. That is the best way I can describe it.

I instructed him in his duties and received only silence. I then called Zulum. He appeared much easier than spirits have in the past for me. He looked like a green and red ball, but tiny compared to the watcher. I told him what I wanted and the constraints on how he went about it. I then pushed my book into the double circle with him and asked him to swear upon his sigil to come whenever I called and to never harm myself or anyone I love. I was very surprised. He did not try to argue or mislead or even seemed upset about having to do it. He was just so matter of factly. When he swore upon the sigil I could see a shadow hover over the page, not astrally but physically. That was a new experience for me.

I finished up and banished with no problems. I have to say as nervous and worked up as I was before this working, it ran smooth as silk. I am very surprised. Now that it is over I have an odd lingering feeling. When working with angels I am often left with a feeling of peace and joy after the fact. After this working I do not feel bad or evil but it is a feeling very similar to nervous energy, but not the same thing. Curious.

Thanks for the reply, and I would probably do what the book says, I'm getting it in a bit. But when I do I would do what the book says, but anything else unless I need to specifficaly do something for it, I would use a double-chalk drawn circle.
Thanks,
