I feel a bit weird about this, as this is my first post of any significance, but I suppose I shouldn't let falling on my face get in the way of a good time. I'm sure if I've posted stupidly, someone will be more than happy to point it out.
I want to introduce a magical entity in the in the spirit of Gek. I needed help sorting out my finances (i.e. I needed to stop being so damn broke) and through a shamanic journey and found this spirit (entity, thoughtform, whathaveyou.) He helped me, maybe he can work for others.
So, everyone... Allow me to introduce:
PIETRO
Spirit of Money, Finance and All Things Personally Economic.
(Don't ask me why his name is Pietro, that's what he said, and who am I to disagree?)
APPEARANCE
Pietro appeared as a distinguished old man, thin, and well-dressed, even in temprament. There was something almost aristocratic about him, like an old Swiss banker.
But it was his outfit that really caught my attention. Black tie and tails, top hat, monacle, and big white mustache. That's right, Pietro was dressed as the Monopoly Man.
DOMAIN
Pietro seems to associate with all things financial. He's a sober spirit, as far as I can tell. The sort who would find you a job or help you pick a good investment, but don't expect his help if you want to win the lottery. That doesn't seem to be what he's about.
PRAYERS / SPELLS / ETC.
Here's how I was told to contact/pay tribute to this spirit when I help in finance: I take piece of paper currency (that's dollar bills in this country) and I draw over the face of the president on the front, giving him a top hat, monacle, and big white mustache. Yes, I dress the president as Pietro. (It's what Pietro seems to want. And it's fun turning Abe Lincoln into the Monopoly Man.)
Sometimes I write Pietro's name underneath, sometimes the syllables of an intention. Sometimes I sit and mentally set the request on the bill. ("Pietro, Pietro, Pietro, please find me the perfect day job for me!")
Then... I go out and spend it. Pietro says you could also leave it outside a financial institution, like a bank or a brokerage house. But if you're going to drop a bill on the sidewalk, do it with a small denomination. Tossing a fifty in the street is just not a good use for your money, and Pietro seems to be all about using money wisely and with respect.
HAS IT WORKED?
So far... Yes. I've gone from being near broke and not knowing where my next paycheck was coming from to staying afloat with a tremendous number of freelance gigs. Pietro seems to be a very amicable and even tempered spirit, happy to pass along his wisdom and kindness. All he asks is that you be smart about things. ("Pietro, please find me five hundred bucks to go to Vegas," probably wouldn't work with him. But hey, maybe it would. Peitro says generosity is part having money.)
So many thanks to Pietro. I honor his name. He's never let me down.
And to all of you, get to know him. Honor him. Ask for his blessing and he'll bless you kindly. Treat him well and he'll treat you well in return. Sometimes money isn't the root of all evil. |
