Hi all. I am new to the occult and would like to get some advice. There are certain fields such as writing where I want to excel in. However, I think being guided by spiritual entities could be of great help for me to achieve what I want. Any help for summoning entities to improve talent/ skill will be appreciated.
Sorry if I sound too new to this.
Using the Occult to improve one's skills
Re: Using the Occult to improve one's skills
What you're describing is possible - the main barrier to what you're hoping to achieve is that summoning spirits is, in itself, a medium-high level skill, something usually only done after at least a couple years of training.
It seems to me, personally, that instead of dedicating hours every day to training until you can summon a spirit to help you with your writing, you could just spend those hours every day practicing your writing :p Of course if you're interested in magic more generally, then by all means, take it up, learn invocation and merge the two. Just don't be surprised when it takes a lot more hard work than it might seem at first glance.

'The Path of Illumination'
he who gives himself to this path
is like a block of wood
that gives itself to the chisel-
cut by cut it is honed to perfection"

Where is a good place to start? I am willing to work hard for this thing. But any quicker means of getting help from spiritual entities?
