Equipment Options

I have a really retarded question. As I stated in an earlier post I am new to goetia but not to ceremonial magick. I was wondering how much of the equipment from the Goetia is really essential to get results from this kind of evocation.

I have a circle with the holy names on it. Its not the same form and design as the one from the lesser keys however(its my own design).

I am also making a triangle of art with a skrying mirror on it. So the triangle won't be the floor variety as in the Book.

As for the bass box, sword, and everything else, I don't have them. All I have is standard Golden Dawn equipment(minus the sword).

So do you think all the trappings are essential? Would it not be successful without following it to the "T"?

I think you may be jumping the gun there Athena.

I never said I wanted to do this right away. I do have an interest in evocation of goetic beings and would like to know more about it other than the sources I currently have. The question I asked was about the advise of others, however if it is such a burden to offer some simple advise to someone who is scincere then I will look for another forum that doesn't discriminate on how simple one's questions may be.

I do believe your assumptions to be a bit rude, especially coming from a "moderator".
