Astaroth... the bloody sacrifice
Original post: ElvenHope
Alright. I have tried to summon Astaroth, I'm sure most of you know who he is... I used "The COmplete Book of Spells, Ceremonies and Magic" by Migene Gonzalez-Wippler. Although, the author is like satanic, she did write a great summoning spell for him. And so I summoned, but all I got was this entity that began sucking energy from everything around it, it had absolutely no intelligence. And so, I wonder, if I am to summon Astaroth again, I will be obliged to offer some sacrifice. I won't kill an animal, and have no willing human whose body it can possess. So, would a bit of my blood be enough? I've never really done blood magick. So, I'm inexperienced in that department... or will he require my body? I don't think I'd like to be possessed by a demon again, since it happened to me so many times before and is not a pleasent experience. Anyways, what type of sacrifice would Astaroth require?

You might want to try the Goetic method of summon the 29th spirit, which is a transformation of the Astaroth archetype. Though I do not recomend blood. Once tey git a taste of meat, yer 'ave to put it down fer ther own good boy.

Odd title for a post, I am hoping that you are serious and not just trolling...
Judging by your views of these entities in your post in the protection from demons thread, I doubt they would be in a huge hurry to show up for you..
Btw, Astaroth is a she
No, blood would be silly, especially if you are new to evocation. Wine, building a website etc. etc. are more appropriate. I have no idea where you got the sacrifice an animal and using a body ideas? Too much hollywood perhaps? That is not how evocation is done. I recommend that you read the grimoires that contain Astaroth in them.
Also, that is not the best book for evocation, I recommend practicing magic for some time to build up your knowlege and strength before doing evocation. Then reading several books on evocation so you definatly know what you are doing.
Best of luck

Astaroth is a she? Hmm.... that's not exactly how IT was described. Besides, from what I know, demons don't have genders. Umm.... for evocation, if wine is used as a substitude, how do I offer it to the demon?

Ok, I agree with Athena, Asteroth is a she, and she is the only demon to have physically injured me during an evocation. Be aware that the assumptions that people on here make about angels do not apply to demons.
IME, sacrifice to this demon is absolutely not recommended. Asteroth may not be listed as a king but the energy is very strong and her ability to effect the physical is quite scary. Start evocking somewhere else would be my advice.

Ok, I was drunk when I wrote the above and gave away more than I should have, but I refer to a physical scar / burn on my hand that I was using to hold the disc of solomon. Fortunately, a burnt hand is better than a burnt face.

Most of your advice is for me to begin evoking somewhere else, although I thank you for your concern, I have already researched and already evoked various other demons. Thus I am very much interested in Astaroth. And BrotherM, I would like to know a few details from your evocations... if you don't mind.

Migene is a santeria practitioner, so ignore her blood stuff, that's just her.
Astaroth is in the same group as Ishtar, Proserpine, Inanna... goddesses that strip off their bangles and beads to descend into the underworld. Did you summon her when she was bare and hungry for energy attributes? Did you use the "descent" imagery? You could have called her "sideways" and she would arrive wearing all her gear, and not be hungry.

There is a goofy technique that is used sometimes, called The Adjusting Scales. Basically you draw out three lines and label the ends:
The stealth line: Quiet ....... Brash
The nasty line: Angelic Compassion ........ Mischievous Mayhem
The mythos line: Natural Deity ....... Goetic Demon ........ Enochian Engineer
and on the demon sigil you add a curly symbol of a coil... coils are used to tune in to certain radio frequencies (read stations) and they make a useful symbo of adjustment...
Now taking your sigil you hold it over each line in the center and then slide it right or left, to the quality you wish your spirit to manifest with... and as you move it, feel the energy change in the sigil. Do this for each line, and you have "modulated" the sigil to bring the spirit in the way you prefer. Make some gesture to "lock" the position on each line when you reach a place you like.
If you want ALL spirits you summon to be exactly the same, you can simply draw the lines on your spirit triangle and it will force them all to conform.
(about the engineer thing: I see the Enochian angels as dealing more with the nuts and bolts inner workings of the cosmos, so that's why I put them opposite the deities.)

Original post: ElvenHope
When I tried to summon Astaroth, i did the basic protection spell, then i used the evoking spell written in the"Complete Book of Spells, Ceremonies, and Magic", I don't know how accurate the evoking spell was... but frist I got this strong sense... like something is there, waiting for me to come out of my circle... yet nothing appeared in the triangle that I made... which meant that it manifested in the room and not the space I intended.. i didn't see anything, and after i left my circle I found that instead of Astaroth, I have evoked an energy vampire (which is basically an entity that just sucks all the energy around it)... i had to banish it... but i doubt it was astaroth, since that thing had no intellect.
Nocturnalemur: As i read the Adjusting Scales ritual, i cant exactly follow it... are you saying that its like the tabs that you have on video games when choosing what type of character you want. How can you give a demon "Angelic Compassion"... i'd appreciate it if you went into detail. Thank you.

Very cool website, fathersatansfollower!
Elvenhope, we are dealing with non-human intelligences here, and it would be an assumption to guess that they have a fixed shape, fixed personality, fixed morality. It is more like they are fluid wax, flowing into the molds of our expectations. Except, not completely. More like colored waxes with certain scents flowing into our molds. So yes... we can "adjust" them. The spirits are not discrete beings like us. They are "spectrums" or "collections of conscious points", so if you adjust say Amduscias to very benevolent, you get the pole in Amduscias that is in sympathy with that. If not, you get a different pole.
If a demon is just too definitely "mean" to be benevolent, you will probably perceive some kind of warning... like an image with inverted colors, and you will know you pushed it too far, and now you are summoning the "shadow twin" of the demon with certain qualities different.
For example, in the physical world, with sun shining on a human, she casts a shadow. Well in the broad categories of love, health, wealth, wisdom, etc... certain demons are deficient, and they "cast a shadow"... if you "adjust" them to possess those qualities, anyway... you summon the shadow, not the original demon. But since it IS a shadow, it has lots of the original demon's qualities, and you can use it, if you like.
Examples of use:
To get corporate information from a mage-guarded company, you would adjust a demon to be "quiet" as opposed to "brash", and it would operate subtly.
To get a demon to help somebody, you would adjust it to "angelic compassion" - just in case.
What about the mythos line: okay in my view a spirit can be upgraded or downgraded into various aspects... a Nature Deity changes things in a general way that produces growth in everyone. A Goetic Demon obeys your commands using a personality to understand what you want, and stops. An Enochian Engineer obeys your commands on a micro-level and may not stop unless given limits (sort of like the Sorceror's Apprenctic movie with the broom bringing water buckets over and over, and drowning the Apprentice?) ... but its good for certain things... A different level of Enochian spirit is very good at philosophy and knowledge and not so great at "obeying"... at least not for me. lol

Nocturnalemur, thank you for explaining that. Although, I still can't imagine a demon being more compassionate just because you make it so... but i do understand what you mean.

the day that you can imagine it, you will be able to do it
eg Jehovah is a nasty deity for some, a loving deity for others, and equally powerful and "true" in both operations... if we can adjust the nature of a god, we can certainly adjust a goetic demon, right?

If you have read any real writings on goetia an the demons that you would be summoning. I will agree with you in the fact that demons take on different forms to different people. some may say if multiple people present then multiple versions of the same demon may be seen deending on the person summoning or person present. but as for changing the spirit as needed. not only does my expoerience in summoning demons which I have summoned several say that chaning their demanor to be false. the experiences of fellow practitiners as well as the experiences of many well known writers dispute this theory. there is no such ability all people may have seen a different vivsion upon summoning and maybe not but they have simular if not identical experience with demeanor of demon. this advice should not be taken as fact as it is not.

I agree. Or at least, I think I do.
If you go into a summoning with assumptions about a being, then you'll very likely have your assumptions proved correct. Because you can very often deleude yourself.
Demons are the way they are. If you aren't prepared to face them as such, then you have no business dealing with them.

Let me tell you about these demons then. Most of them are only summoned by their seals, which derive from the neolithic stone seals used in the Middle East. These seals were carved by a stylus, which does not allow for individuality in writing stroke. So the only way to make a seal unique was to add unique picture elements. A seal for, say, Amduscias the unicorn is patently obvious somebody's stylized drawing of a unicorn. But in the neolithic there would be the sign for unicorn plus whatever else was necessary to invoke Amduscias specifically.
To naively think because some old magician woke up one day hurting from a belly ache and threw crumbs to the crows outside his window and then summoned a spirit, and perceived it to come as a crow, and bore the power of making stomach-aches... really people. Use some common sense. Trust your own senses to manipulate the universe, a little.
The old time mages were no more powerful than you... and their power was linked to their own time. Some of them would not be able to cope with the present. YOU ARE THE POWER now.... if you don't take responsibility and use it, then you will be used by it.

Astaroth... the bloody sacrifice
Original post: nocturnalemur
From some very good books on the Sumerians and Semites this is what I have learned about spirits.
1. The original idea of the gods was that they were both helpful and harmful and the spirits (demons) were simply their servants and did their will.
2. Words of power were borrowed from earlier times - and changed - the Semitic names of the Sumerian gods are different - even though the "chaldean oracles" say "change not the barbarous names" - people in fact did.
3. Writing was in cuneiform on clay tablets. There was no paper, no beautiful circular lamens, no flowing curves such as are found in the Goetia sigils.
4. There was no heaven - hell idea. All the dead went to a dusty underworld which was not a punishment. Thus, you could not "threaten" a demon with the torments of a hell which didn't exist.
5. Two big developments came along. One was the Indo-European thing of the conflict between the gods and the almost gods, such as the Olympians and the Titans, the Devas and the Asuras. These "bad gods" did not bother humans, however, for the gods did not permit them to roam free.
The second development was the first genuinely evil, independent demon, and it was a female, and she attacked pregnant women. Her name was changed finally to Lilith by the Hebrews. She did have to be exorcised or banished and one of the amulets was - of all things - the bird-demon Pazuzu. So women wore this around their necks to drive this demoness away.
...so there you have it. The idea of hell comes from the theological need to "put" the "bad gods" somewhere, and the idea of malicious demons comes from the biological problems involved in childbirth and crib death.
So when you tell me, a demon's character is what it is, I agree... but the negative stuff was vastly inflated. The truth is, stay on the good side of the gods, and their servants will not harm you, for they have no "will" concerning humans on their own. The true servants of the gods are like angels, but not as nice.

So a quick way to kiss up to the gods and win their servants cooperation would be to declare your appreciation and honor for their particular blessings... eg "All honor and thanks to the Powers that bless us with Love and Beauty" - while using colors and perfumes and offerings and tokens that remind you of these qualities. Then summon your demon as usual.
The trick is to sort out which demon serves which broad field. The ones under the god Ea or Enki as he's also called, would be extra friendly because this was the deity who defended humans when the other gods turned against us.
So a quick way to kiss up to the gods and win their servants cooperation would be to declare your appreciation and honor for their particular blessings... eg "All honor and thanks to the Powers that bless us with Love and Beauty" - while using colors and perfumes and offerings and tokens that remind you of these qualities. Then summon your demon as usual.

Astaroth... the bloody sacrifice
Original post: Beherit
What about sexual fluids if not blood? I heard about this from other sources, dunno how valid it is though. As for the hollywood "bloody sacrafice" thing; I was always fond of Hellraiser's Plate of dove heads and a jug of piss....just really disturbing but I always thought it would work(Never tried it and probably never will unless I come across a "cube" or a behelit, lol)

Re: Astaroth... the bloody sacrifice
I don´t read this book, but you have to be careful.
Never summon a daemon using circles, or using salomon metods, they really don´t like this shit.
Be respectiful, the ritual has to be done after the new moon ou crescent, never on the full moon ou decrescent.
Use black candles, if don´t have use red or dark blue.
If you summon you have to do a petition and offer something in change (don´t ever offer your soul of course). Give egg, money, flower, incense, alcoohol. After make the pact sign with your own blood, and burn the sigil.
Dismiss and thanks.
That´s all.
If you are a christian or judaist don´t ever try our you be possessed, this is a warning.
This ritual is just for satanists and demonolators.
