Introductory Guide to Practical Necromancy







Spirits of the dead are no more wise when they are dead than they were when they were alive! We do not gain great knowledge simply through the process of dying. The dead have the same beliefs and prejudices they held when they were alive. Death does not change spirits except for bringing a slight change in perspective. Even the most skeptical dead will believe in an existence after death.
Spirits can travel around their city or rural neighborhood wothout being seen by most people. Most spirits have some ability to see into the future, but usually only along the line of probability. How far spirits can see, and how clearly they can see, is a matter for individual spirits. Most spirits are not good at either seeing very far, or seeing very clearly. Many spirits are great braggarts, and will play vicious tricks on people who can communicate with them but who are credulous. Many of these seriously deluded people ascribe great powers to the trickster spirits who prey on them.

It is not enough to just contact spirits, it takes a great deal of time to find out if they can provide you with any useful information. Most spirits just cannot do so. It is beyond their ability. Most spirits cannot perform magic either, much less do all of the wonderful things that many of them will tell you they con do when you contact them. Working with the dead can be rather tricky business.

The ability to speak with the dead must first be developped before you can work with them successfully. If you do not have this ability, you will make no progress with this form of magic. Magic worked with spirits is a very powerful and worthwhile form of magical practice if you have the ability. Iy your tendancies, toughts, and feelings seem a bit morbid to most people, you may have a natural bent for this form of magical practice. If this is the case, you will probably find that will be a great deal easier to practice than cereminial magic. You will also find that necromancy is good deal more powerful for most pratical work.

People who would like to begin in necromancy must begin by working with their ancestors. Follow the following program and you may find that you will have some response from your ancestors. These spirits will attrack some other spirits who may be your working spirit. You sould not seek a verbal response, as you may have a response only as a favorable change in your life. It is also quite possible that you will have no response at all.

First : Obtain as detailed a list as possible of your ancestors. You sould attempt to learn as much as you can about them, and find out now they were connected by ties of friendship and common interests. Pick two or three ancestors who you either have a pictures of, or can obtain a pictures of. These sould be ancestors from this list. These are the ancestors with whom you will work.

Second : At least every week you sould light a candle to each of them, a small birthday candle will do, and ask them for help and guidance in your life. After you do this you sould place a glass of cold water in front of each of the pictures, one glass for each picture, and thank them for their assistance in your life.

Third : Keep doing this each week for at least six months ; it usually takes that long to begin to make any kind of real contact. In the meantime, if you think you hear your ancestors speaking to you avoid talking to them. Just keep making the offerings and asking for help and guidance in your life and thanking them for the help and guidance they are giving you.

The reason you are avoiding speaking to them is that the voices you may hear are probably trickster spirists, and not your ancestors at all. Despite any belief you may have that you can tell the difference, you will not be able to do so. So just ignore the voices and keep making the offerings.

After a year or so you will probably find that you are beginning to get good inspirations from these spirits. The proof of this is that your life is now running in a more smooth manner, with less trauma. If it is not, you may make the offerings less frequently, or even discontinus them.
