Sigils And Bindrunes Options

I have a problem: I have a servitor that is demanding I need to give it more energy every day are-so, if not it sort of fades. {This may be my fault, in that I'm not fleshing it out enough.} I had the idea that I could use Bind-Runes to fix the energy problem. I was concerned about it taking too much from the Bind-Runs, don’t what it to become more powerful than I can easy dismiss or destroy. However I was unable to find literature on this. I’m open to suggestions.

Greetings!

I have a problem: I have a servitor that is demanding I need to give it more energy every day are-so, if not it sort of fades.

Yes that is a problem...but you need to be very clear about what is happening here. The idea that it is the servitor that is demanding more energy that has me concerned. Servitors are created to do a specific task. Multi purposed servitors will run you into trouble. Dissolve it and start again. In no way should this construct have free will. This is not a pet or another life...it is a machine of sorts. Who the hell is in charge?

Bardon has some very explicit instructions for the creation of these things, from creation to destruction. NOTE: RANT approaching!
This is a major flaw in alot of ChaosMagick cookbooks out there...they don't go into the why's and the why nots about 'servitors'. It was the chaosmagicians that coined the word 'servitor'. Now there is a whole generation of magicians out there playing with things that they aren't prepared to take care of. (Let's skip to the last chapter and get to the really good stuff!)

Keep it simple! Use one element, create it for one purpose then destroy it after giving it an alloted time to perform its task! I can't even begin to tell you how many of these things are littering up the astral because of lazy, sloppy and incompetant blohards that never clean up after themselves! No, I'm NOT calling you any of these derogatory things...I'm trying to make a point!

Bindrunes can be used to help define your construct. Now, first I'd say 'Bravo!' for creativity in adopting bindrunes with the creation of a 'servitor' but a distinct Boo for the lack of understanding on the mechanics of energy work in regards to the charging/powering of your 'beast'...

You should understand the making of these constructs before sending them off willynilly into the world! END OF RANT! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/diablo.gif)

My apologies for having you type so much of a rant, I should have been clearer. Perhaps "NEED" is a more appropriate word to describe the situation. It needs a lot of energy, it douse not demand.

To give you all a clearer view of my servitor:

Carefully define the intention (to protect me; by alerting me of potentially dangerous physically situations,) as you could imagine this is intended to stay for a wile. Though as a rule for anything over two weeks I prefer a simpler sigil or a spell so I avoid having it lose focus and it has No free will.

As for “littering up the astral” I assure you I am most methodical about such things, for the reason: I don’t like having them hang around needlessly connected to me. When their task is complete they are destroyed. I do hope I elevated you distress.

Now if I understand you correctly Bind-Runes could aid in the definition but can not be used to animate it. Then I still have a problem (and I will state this with care) my servitor needs more energy to stay together that I wish to give it. Is there a problem with my methodology that I'm still missing or is it something ells?

Thanks

Point taken.
Perhaps the task was too broadly worded. The protection can be made from a number of other ways other than a construct.
a. by auric strengthening or energy manipulation
b. by talisman or amulet

a possible cause for the weakening of the servitor is that you are asking it to do too much for its construction. Trying to keep up with all the probability strings of everyday life has it spreading itself too thin. It will take alot of energy to maintain 100% coverage 24/7! Perhaps if you used it just as an alarm to warn you ahead of time in order to allow you to throw up a shield or somesuch. Invincibility would be a tall order for anything...

To maintain a shield for 2 weeks is monumental! Even accomplished mages would be hard pressed... How 'bout a host of protectors? It is possible to create constructs/thoughtforms who will do nothing but feed a talisman/machine with power in order to maintain various levels of activity.

Thank you for being aware to the spreading of astral detritus and its solutions. I wasn't necessarily pointing my finger at you...just at everyone it applied to! *grin* (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)

An alarm to warn me ahead of time was the idea, I believe that I said "by alerting me of potentially physically dangerous situations." As much as I would love to claim Invincibility I can't... yet.

Your idea for thoughtforms that feeds a talisman is intriguing, though. Would you care to elaborate, it could be vary interesting!

You also said that the servitor demanded more power...that is why I asked for clarity when approaching the problem. It appears that I've given you some ideas to work with and I'd like to see some of our membership help you instead of getting long winded. If you can charge a talisman or create a 'servitor' then you will already know how to create a power cell. Good luck with your experiment(s)! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/i_triangle.gif)

Thank you,
I start a new thread to investigate the topic. You have been most helpful.

Can I just ask, what are bindrunes for?
