     "In the name of Shaddai El Chai, I invoke ye, ye Forces of Yesod!"

      Point to the Moon Symbol.  Trace a line of White Light as you move to the South.         

      Finish the line at the point where the center of the next Hexagram will be.

       Point to the Moon Symbol.  Trace the next part of your line of Violet Light, as you move

       to the North.  Finish the line in the North, where the center of the next Hexagram will be.

14.  Face North.  Trace a Violet Moon Invoking Hexagram with your Dagger while vibrating  ARARITA                          (Ah.Rah.Ree.Tah).

       In the center of the Hexagram, draw another  Violet Moon Symbol, charging it as before.

       "In the name of Shaddai El Chai, I invoke ye, ye Forces of Yesod!"

       Trace the next part of your line of White Light, as you move to the East,  completing the Circle.  

 

17.  Still walking Clockwise, Go to the West of the Altar and face East.  Over your altar (or if there is no                       altar,  in the Center of your Circle) make another Violet Moon Invoking Hexagram, charging it as                           you did the one in the North. (Key Word, Divine Name, Osiris Slain and L.V.X. Signs, etc.)

18.  Raise your arms slightly, reaching up and in front of you.  

       In the following Invocation, vibrate each name.  Sigils are only appropriate for spirits                             (Archangels, Angels and other spirits).  These are given below.  Vibrate each of these                             names once.  As you vibrate the names of the Archangel and Angel, make the sigils.                               There is no need to write the Hebrew Names.  I give them only for reference purposes.        
       Both are Violet.  Say,

     "In the name of SHADDAI EL CHAI, 

       the Archangel GABRIEL (Gah.Bree.Ehl)

       of the Choir of Angels KERUBIM (Care.Uh.Beem) 

       I invoke ye, ye Forces of YESOD (Yeh.Sode)."  

19.  Give the Sign of Osiris Slain and L.V.X. Signs.

III. Practical Magick

20.  State the purpose of this ritual, saying,

      "It is the Intention of this Ritual that the Forces of Yesod shall __________."

21.  If you intend to perform a Self Dedication or Initiation as a Theoricus, give the Oath of that Grade.

       If you intend to skry for a Vision of the Machinery of the Universe, relax and enter a meditative state,                       awaiting the Vision or Spiritual Experience.  When you are done, record the Vision in your Ritual Diary.

       If you intend to perform Practical Magick toward Peace, Illumination, Promotions, Popularity, Healing or                 Empowerment, perform the Ritual of the Middle Pillar, making the Light and Spheres Violet.  Either hold                 the object or hold your hands over (or toward) the target of the ritual.  Petition the forces to complete your                 goal.

IV. Closing

22.  If you've charged any Talismans, put them in their containers and seal them.

23.  Give a License to Depart to the Forces of Yesod, with a Blessing in the name of                                                           Shaddai El Chai.

24.  Perform the Yesod Banishing Ritual of the Hexagram:  

       To draw the Banishing forms of the Hexagrams, start at the same points as the Invoking ones, but                             trace them Counterclockwise.

       The Sephira Symbol and God Name remain the same.  Charge the Hexagram                                                             with the Sign of the Enterer, as you did during the Invoking Ritual, but give the                                                           Sign of Silence instead of the Sign of Osiris Slain and L.V.X. Signs.  There are no                                                       sigils or Central Invocation in the Banishing Ritual.  Finish with the Analysis of the                                                     Key Word.

25. Perform the Lesser Invoking Ritual of the Hexagram.
