Emergency Banishings: Is There a "Nuclear Option"?

[agloval]

I'm finally getting around to organizing all of my ritual material, and while doing so I realized there's one area where my toolkit feels a bit thin: emergency banishings.

For routine work I already have the LBRP, barbarous words of power, and a few other methods that I'd rather not discuss publicly, but it made me wonder whether there's a sort of "nuclear option" that experienced practitioners keep in reserve in case something genuinely goes wrong.

I've never actually needed anything beyond my usual methods, and hopefully I never will, but I'd rather have everything organized and ready before I need it than start looking for solutions in the middle of a problem.

I've wondered about the Star Ruby, although I've always approached Thelema with a bit of hesitation, so I don't have any experience with it. For those of you who do, would you consider it significantly stronger or fundamentally different from the LBRP as an emergency banishing?

Or are there other rites, prayers, or techniques you'd recommend as a true last-resort banishing? I'd be interested in hearing what experienced practitioners keep in their own "break glass in case of emergency" toolbox.

There's a real lack of understanding in this area. As well , the obsessive daily banishing rituals people do are somewhat ridiculous and don't prevent them from encountering difficulties anyway.

The truth is anything that can be banished using a little ritual is not very formidable. And something may vanish from your immediate perception, and then go on to intefere with you in another way.

The best 'banishing' is establishing yourself as a power unto yourself. Period. Before you do that, you want to resonate with the energy that at the very least in the future you can greatly impact any discarnate entities.

Holding an emotional inner charge of 'emergency' is very far from the position you want to be holding.

I was actually referring to an emergency banishing for a major ritual that I've been preparing for the past year.

Lightning-fast and powerful: the "Phat!" mantra. Spit it out venomously and with evil intent, and the air around you will clear immediately.
