Invocation writing II

Here’s a template I made, inspired by the author Richard Kieckhefer.

1. Opening statement.

To summon a spirit:
+ “I summon”
+ “I call upon”
+ “I conjure”
+ “I invoke”

To banish a spirit:
+ “I banish”
+ “I dispel”
+ “I return”
+ “I expell”
+ “I release”

To demand something:
+ “I ask”
+ “I command”
+ “I demand”

2. Name of spirit.
“ You… “

+ Whole name
+ Whole name + birthplace (town/city/country)
+ Whole name + name of parent
+ Whole name + occupation in life
+ “Spirit”

3. Power or authority.

“ By… “
+ “My powers”
+ “My might”
+ “This token”
+ “My authority as [insert authority]”

“ In the name of ”
+ “ All that is ”
+ “ The powers that be ”
+ “ What was and will be ”

4. Command.

To summon:
+ “Manifest thyself within this [circle/room/smoke/mirror/basin/water]”
+ “Make thyself known”
+ “Come to me”
+ “Come forth”
+ “Grant me audience”

To banish:
+ “Leave this place”
+ “Leave me”
+ “Begone”

To demand something:
State your demand and offer a reward for the completion of this task.

Example: “ I summon [Opening statement]
You, John Doe [Name of spirit], 
By my power and in the name of what once was [Power or authority]. 
Manifest thyself in this circle! [Command] ”
