Need help brainstorming

Post by Maeiv »

Would someone be able to give me ideas on how to perform a ritual involving three different planets? Specifically Mars Saturn and Mercury. It'd have to be mostly mental or something that could be done using conventional arts+ crafts tools. I could possibly come upon some herbs too if we have ideas that throw those into the equation. What day would it be on, and what time, and why? I have absolutely no ideas currently as to how I would combine three celestial bodies into one ritual. If y'all could give me a few ideas or possibly point me in the right direction it'd be a great help. The best would be to reveal possibly a pdf or website that could teach me the basics behind planetary magick so I could establish an idea myself because I feel more powerful that way.

Thank you all for your constant help!

I would just do three separate rituals. By mixing them you have the possibility of canceling each other out or something. You would also want to find a good time where all three planets are in good positions and positively aspected with each other (a lot of effort). If you really wanted to use multiple I would then use all 7 so there is balance. Astrologically, for instance, Mars in Capricorn is seen as "exalted", but the reason for this is that Mars is usually fast, fierce, and explosive (like a missile), and the Saturnal/Capricorn energy makes sure it is focused, steady, and doesn't fizzle out too quick (like a roaring fire), so for every day purposes this is the way to go with Mars. You might think "Good, i picked Saturn and Mars". But this controlling property of Saturn is only one aspect of Saturn, and could be far from what you want to manifest from Saturn in your ritual.

As a magician working with Martial energies, you may not want to manifest your martial energies exactly in the way Mars in Capricorn manifests itself, but you certainly want to (can, should) emulate the positive characteristics of this idea (steady, focused control), even if you want to some pure martial force or another variation of it. What i mean is if your problem/desire/wish is complex enough to require three planets, it should probably be broken into three ideas and rituals to be performed. And it shouldn't matter if it takes three different days, three weeks, or three years.

In ritual magic each planet correspond to a specific year, month, week, day and time. So you have to figure out on what day the 3 planets are the closest. And then what hour is the closest to all 3 of them.

Would one of you be able to point me toward a book or some other resource that gives me information on deciding the days these would be performed on and Etc?

I really recommend getting a book or two, BUT, the internet can be awefully useful sometimes:
