I don't think I can answer all of Johnny's questions but I do believe the method by which you charge is up to the individual. I am going to use song, (as others have stated they are doing)dance, visualisation and probably some of those mango drinks from Kooky .Do you think it'll be cool if I add a little voldka?

P.S: Oh, Mordant, thank you. Really couldn't have gotten this far without you though!

P.S.S: Rex these are good points please tell us what your personal opinions are. You are an intelligent king, right?

Yeah, I'd be interested in hearing what Rex thinks we should do. My personal opinion is it's best to aim for everyone charging this up around the same time (1 am GMT, whatever that is in dollars and cents). Methods should be left up to the individuals involved, as these will obviously depend on peoples' level of knowledge and the resources they can muster. Ditto for defences.

It would be useful if people could contribute any useful techniques they have which others might not know about, particularly with regard to the defensive side of things...

And on that note, I've had a rather nasty and unlikely accident involving my left hand and a glass window over the weekend, which leads me to suspect that someone or <Christopher Lee voice> someTHING </Christopher Lee voice> is trying to fuck us up. Keep your guard up, people...

FWIW, I think we need to aim at all charging this thing around the same time - 1 am GMT, X EST/CST/PMT/whatever sort of time you have over there. Technique should be left up to the individuals, depending as it will on peoples' level of knowledge and the resources available to them. Ditto for defences, tho' it would be useful if people who are good at this type of thing could contribute any techniques they've found to be particularly effective.

On that note, I've had a rather nasty and unlikely accident involving my left hand and a large square piece of glass, and I keep having trouble trying to post this, which leads me to suspect that we are being interfered with. Guards up, people...

I'm not quite sure it's feasible for all of us to do the same thing at the same time; depending on where we are, some of us have work, school or various other situations where focusing solely on the Transducer may be difficult.

I will be charging up the transducer after work at some funky Tiki Bar in Manhattan, cool frosty drink in hand, Peace Mango on my mind. Some people might prefer a private ritual at home, others might want to flyposter printouts of the Transducer around their neighborhood. It's all good.

Kooky: yeah, post up some Mango Cocktail recipes. I'll definitely need one

quote:Originally posted by City-zen Rex:

SO: 1. How will we charge the sigil? Should we perform specific acts of power at the appointed time or one unified act (a la global orgasm day)
2. What steps do we take to protect?



1. In my opinion, individual acts of power at the appointed time (or at least on the appointed day - preferably when you can see the moon) will work better since we are all working with different traditions. Allowing experienced practitioners to choose their own type of charging techniques will maximize the power being generated more than trying to get everyone to conform to one type of technique that they may not get the best results at. For those people who have little experience, give them a 'default' technique (such as the wank technique) so that they can participate as well.

2. Any defenses should be designed so that our servitor can protect itself. Therefore, the defenses should be built into the sigil itself by the sigil designers, which means that if any more need to be added the sigil needs to be revisited and redesigned.

At this late date, I suggest that the appointed heads of this project (May and Rex) get together and work out the finished sigil with a brief 'agenda' of what needs to happen on the full moon. If we leave this open to commitee, nothing is going to be ready in time.

Also, for those who are concerned about any magical backlash or sympathetic links that any 'baddies' could follow back from the servitor to you, make sure that during the ritual you take the proper precautions for banishing and severing of any said links.

Let May and Rex take responsibility for the design of the servitor and then take your own responsibility for your own participation in the creation.

See y'all on the 30th.

from freshmangos.com:

quote:The Mango tree plays a sacred role in India; it is a symbol of love and some believe that the Mango tree can grant wishes.

In the Hindu culture hanging fresh mango leaves outside the front door during Ponggol (Hindu New Year) and Deepavali is considered a blessing to the house.

Sanskrit poets believing they [mango buds] lend sweetness to the voice.

Every part of the mango is beneficial and has been utilized in folk remedies in some form or another. Whether the bark, leaves, skin or pit; all have been concocted into various types of treatments or preventatives down through the centuries. A partial list of the many medicinal properties and purported uses attributed to the mango tree are as follows: anti-viral, anti-parasitic, anti-septic, anti-tussive (cough), anti-asthmatic, expectorant, cardiotonic, contraceptive, aphrodisiac, hypotensive, laxative, stomachic (beneficial to digestion)....



looks like you made a good choice, may

Thank you Kooky!! I am going to blast this thing!! The mango was a good choice, it was Ierne that decided it looked like a mango and it stuck. I think any fruit will do, mangos are just preferred.
I really like the symbolism that fruit gives to the whole working.
We are going back to the garden baby, older and wiser!

Don't mind me I am silly sometimes.

I will consult with Rex and post a Formal invite by Wednesday night.
