What type of magick have you had the most success with?

[Jonathan Strange]

Sigils work for me, the tarot and 40 servants as well.

Honestly the most profound effects were archieved with what i call "casual" magick which i just do, but i think its like that for most people, just that they (me too a lot of the time) are not conciously doing that.

I have been having great and fast success using sigil work. Specifically following the teachings given by Peter J Carroll and Austin Osman Spare.

I almost immediately noticed results when sigilizing for better success in the workplace, though you have to take into consideration Phil Hine's point about avenues of success. If you don't at least attempt to facilitate a route your desired result can come from, it may come from unfortunate or unexpected means or not at all.

If we call magic causing paranormal events, people I talk to get mind controlled regularly. By understanding which paranormal activity is active you can do magic somewhat consistently. I have a simulation-based AI that moves people out of the way for me, has done that about a hundred times.

Interesting to hear what types of magick/schools of practice everyone has had the most material success with?

personally, planetary magick, shem angels and the angels of omnipotence have worked WONDERS for me.

Which book did you use to introduce yourself to the angels of omnipotence?

I think my most successful act of magick came from pop culture magick/chaos magick: hypersigil.

After a messy 2024 year, i decided to banish the all year on Dec 31, 2024 by "burning the year". On Jan 1 2025, i wrote the hypersigil as a letter dated on Dec 31 2025, explaining how amazing 2025 was to me. I wrote about having a job i like, good friend, out of depression and no more money concerns.

I added some solar elements and i sealed the letter. Keeping it in my desk.

I opened the letter at the end of the last year and i was shocked about everything was accomplished so far.

The letter was half hidden in my desk so i often saw it through the year, i guess it acted as a reminder of all those intents.

Some of the best spells ive done have been along these lines. Do the spell, forget about it, year later you have the thing and your life is different in a positive way

I think for me it is PGM and planetary magic

What book was this? Im curious...and why was it so important to you ?

On my own experience Planetary Magic and Heptarmeron as a Grimoire. But in my personal praxis I work with Tibetan Buddhism Tantra.

Actually I have had great results with Jareth Tempest’s works. Been reading his demonic pathworkings book recently.

For material success, the strongest successes I've had are probably from the Goetic spirits / demonic magick especially when paired with offerings. I have also had blowback from these rituals as well when I asked for above what I could get at that time, but this is also what I would call a success as well because I knew it came from the ritual which counts as a "result". The methods I used in these cases were either Solomonic (ie ars goetia) based or from the "Demons of Magick" book by Gordon Winterfield. I used the Ars Goetia methods initially for bigger requests and while I initially thought this was more effective, I eventually got similar levels of success with the DoM method. But overall definitely got the most material success with demonic magick.

For more spiritual and internal work, it is a bit more varied. I have had a lot of success with angelic magick of various types from GoM for internal work. Of course the results were more subtle than the material results, but I did eventually notice some of the changes I asked for. But I really got a lot more powerful results by using the character transformation methods given in step I / II of Initiation into Hermetics (IIH) by Franz Bardon. Stuff like magical washing with cold water, conscious eating / breathing, and also some auto-suggestion have created a specific level of visible success that I can only attribute to those practices. IIH does not give too much on the specifics on how to use these practices in a specific ritual format, but rather gives the conceptual keys to understand how to use them. So I created my own mini-systems and rituals based around these practices for performing internal alchemy, which has worked out very powerfully for me.


I haven't had a lot of experiences with internal power stuff besides Franz Bardon and I haven't tried any other traditions like Hoodoo / Voodoo or Jinn related things. So it's a pretty wide world. I would say there is still a lot more to try before I can say objectively what has and will give me the most success.

Bardon is very special. He just gives you stuff to do with no filler at least in IIH.

Planetary talismans for me

Combining different types of magic under a decently coherent meta framework and then when stuff starts really moving keep that momentum going for as long as possible (weeks or occasionally months at a time). Take advantage when everything just seems to fall into place, put everything else on hold, and milk it for what it’s worth.

That’s always been the times when I’ve gotten the biggest results (monetarily & otherwise).

*Of course occasionally when you use this strategy everything seems to be building, like after prolonged fasting/purification/all night rituals etc… then you introduce something new in an attempt to build off that momentum…and everything just falls flat…like some type of magical doldrums.

But when it works…

It is the book called covenant of comfort and its so important because although you can learn names and places, letters and their correspondences finding a legitimate authority for ritual that is authorized by rabbinanical thats also translated into english is extremely difficult to find … so its important bc now I can proceed w/ my studies and practice which has been stagnant
