Thread: Servitors in General

Can everyone give their base explanation of servitors? I'm interested in everyone's opinion.

Then if you could tell me how to get one...Lol.

There is a thread about servitors here some where. Usually a magickian conjures them up in their mind or what ever works for them. They serve your needs and when you are finsihed with them you banish them as it would be cruel to keep them. They eventually will either wander or become strong with a life of their own. In my practices it is a kind thing to do to banish but others think different.

But is there a ritual in specific, or does one just come up with one from their own energy? Are they spirits or are they you?

you conjure with your own mind, you think it and believe that it is real it is made up of energy and they are your child and you ask it to serve you, help you with your magic

but you give it life for only a certain amount of time and then banish it this is called responsibility to the Servitor and the other people around you

the banishing is done because the Servitor can become stronger than you and can and will probably create havoc not only in your life but again to those around you

So if I make an image in my mind associate it with a task, set a sigil to it and make it a body out of clay, this servitor basicly becomes a spiritual Golem. I don't know if I want to do this yet but school finals are in 2 weeks! I think I know what task I cold set it to...

You do not have to do a sigil or use clay, envision it before you go about your day before you go to bed. Now having said this some need to use sigils I have never had the need. Do what feels right for you.

to me it is visualization of the energy ( but before this ) I do a protection me the LBRP
I have never used the clay or sigil as of yet

but I go into a meditative state see the energy build in myself as well as the Servitor I tell it what I would like it to do and a time frame for the task to be done and at the end of the time frame I thank it for what it has done and banish it

this is very archaic for I am still learning myself to better perform this task

I just need more practice in visualization and meditation. I'm not at the point where I can successfully create something.

Lady D...just a question?

My understanding is that as a servitor grows and becomes more powerful, it becomes an Egragore...able to sustain itself independent of its creator.

Surely there is no intrinsic harm in this process?

PS: I'm not advocating that any second rate muppet, (like myself), attempt such a working...

It depends on the entity made in question, in addition to possibly the initial information source and circumstances that brought the 'maker' to the position of forging an entity.

For that is not truly possible to speak in 'general', since even amongst the not so always competent human magi, there is a wide berth of various knowledges/understandings, perceptions and ways of handling things. In lame essence, the 'servitor' regardless of whatever it supposedly would be for that particular individual is just something that 'works' for that individual. But then again that is transcribed via the human mind.
