Magic and Large amounts of Money

[Beyond Everything]

It's interesting how very scant are any examples of people using magic to get a lot of money. I mean using magic exclusively, not someone working very hard and supplementing that with magic that may or may not have worked.

The well-known (in Italy) esotericist Kremmerz was notorious for his casino wins using magic. He also made a lot of money in the stock market, but I do not know if that involved magic.

A Wiccan (!) said he utilized his practices to win a Mega Millions lottery- Bunky Bartlett.

That's it. I'm unaware of anyone else.

For myself, the largest windfall I got using my own internal magic (with no other work or effort on my part) was into 6 figures. I'm a pretty non-materialistic person with little interest in capitalistic baubles, so I haven't felt motivated to repeat the feat yet.

Check out Timothy Schultz on youtube, he interviews lottery winners because he won the lottery after dreaming about it and seeks to understand how that happened. As long as you count prophecy and law of attraction as magick, pretty much everyone he's interviewed qualifies.

I haven't kept track of my biggest win. But my most significant win was when I paid rent off a free bet on the nickel slots. I was gonna be homeless in two days, then the fairies filled the screen and told me I could keep a roof over my head.

Precognition I'm not counting to keep things clear, but LOA is definitely magic so it counts. I did forget someone- Helen Hadsell.

Schultz's stuff seems to be a lot of people praying. But a huge % of people playing the lottery are praying, so I can't take this stuff too seriously.

Very interesting! Do you think people who are less materialistic naturally see fewer results in financial success, or is it more about focus and intention?

I suspect it's something those who have actually had success with don't tend to advertise.

The most successful magician I've met admitted to me that he used magic to sway business deals and opportunities in his favor, but never boasted about it publicly and keeps to himself for the most part occasionally posting an article or writeup online.

Why are they less materialistic? What's going on in their 'subconscious'? What did they imbibe in their childhood as far as beliefs and associations? What energy factors are at work? Are they riding the wave of an egregore that is otherwise exploiting them in subtle spiritual ways? How much 'spiritual' juice are they bringing to the table. There's actually an abundance of factors. And then, sometimes pure focus and intention does cut through all of that, too.

Well it's an obscure, anonymous forum, so what difference does it make if people report their results?

I'm kind of a purist with assessing such things. That's why I like results where things fall into the person's lap, because I do know people's mundane behavior can change with mere belief in something, and that alone can lead to success sometimes.

I can attribute this to 3 things.

1. Incompetence. Almost everyone interested in magic on a surface level, and at least half or more of the people who read 5-10 books, have no idea how to actually "do" anything magical. They go by feelings and imaginings, and have no comprehension of what goes into the technical side of rituals and spells. It's wishing on candles with a picture of some deity they don't really believe in.

2. Lack of Imagination. Can you imagine a way that you could get rich, besides ways that "anyone" can get rich? Yeah, lotteries and gambling are available, so are stocks, Forex, etc. but if those are the extent of ways you can imagine yourself becoming wealthy.... that's probably why you need the money already.

3. Lack of Motivation. Following from #2, if a person has a reasonably good idea about how to make money, there's always something you need to do to make it work. I don't mean regular business that lets you attribute regular success to magic, but if you are wanting magic to come through on some particular issue, you've got to be there with it when it arrives.

Three ways I've used magic to get six-figure gains:

In my first years of adulthood, I made a voodoo doll of an apparently healthy relative who I didn't know well or care about, and nailed it to train tracks following an invocation of Azrael. He went to the hospital a couple of days later and died at 51 that same month from pneumonia. I bought a home and lived without work for ten years as a result, spent the entire time doing pretty much nothing but Goetia. During that ten years, a conjured spirit revealed a significant treasure. Once again we moved, and I took up a new career in luxuries. A few years into that new career, everyone else involved was getting into serious legal trouble. I conjured for an escape, and got an opportunity to make a couple of large deals without the other people involved. After that I moved off to a little island where my neighbor was the Thelemite who won MegaMillions.

I am not rich, probably closer to being poor actually, but I've managed to make my life tolerably comfortable by spreading out big gains over years and years of patient near-poor status. I've had plenty of time to raise my six children, enjoy my hobbies, travel the world, and do things I could never have done without conjuring for more money. I encourage everyone to try to obtain from magic the kind of material comforts you think you'd like to have, without much concern over whether that qualifies as Big Money.

Precognition is as much magic as anything else - see the discussion about divination vs enchantment in the other thread.

This is the important bit. Is your True Will to have money, or is it for things that money can help you have? And do you really need ridiculous amounts of money, or will a smaller amount do fine?

Good topic. I dislike that I still think in term of probability so I have mainly use sorcery (and Law of Attraction) to optimize the life I want. LOA says the seeming scale of your objective does not matter, but in my head it still does. I probably should work on that. Money and bonbons don't interest me much either - too much of a mystic underneath my evil exterior - but I really do love my work.

But if it were not for the daimons I would have probably lived as a starving artist working for a health food store in total misery. Not done yet, but I got to do what I wanted and live the life I wanted, working in creative fields that interest me, game development, film VFX, and tech in exciting cities, and having experiences wanted. I made enough money there not to work for the past decade in comfort, and focus on creative business pursuits and passion projects. The company I am starting now is something I would still be doing even with all the money in the world.

That said, I am missing about $3 million US because I did not do what the daimons one time insisted I do, but whatever. Live and learn.

(and Law of Attraction)

Edit. Pardon. ...and Law of Assumption. Law of Attraction is really a different critter with too much noise, imho.
