This Post/ritual is not complete or finished; Research continues. You can pm me or leave a post for specific questions on the exact method/principal.
The Principle
-Given that, at it’s core, most magick is a form of hypnosis, or autosuggestion, and that memories form the core of our personality (and the development of such), then:
Immortality may be obtained by storing and/or transferring these memories and personalities through hypnosis.
In lamens, using a combination of autosuggestion and hypnosis, it is possible to create a magickal vessel for one’s mind - be that a person or object (the end result always being a person).
The object (Phylactery), in this sense: is a tool used to call forth the memories and personalities stored or crafted within it.
We will use this definition of the Phylactery for reference.
This magick is extremely powerful and dangerous. I have devised it from my research on Les Veritable Clavicules de Solomon, Les Dragon Rouge (and Grimorium Verum), and other magickal texts. It is recommended for usage only by the skilled magician; in this case, a “sorcerer”, if you will (in the terms of Khaos). The constructed phylactery may be and has been used for/as the following, in addition to it’s main purpose:
I built this phylactery entirely from wood; the end cost being roughly 100 dollars. Magickal symbols of importance that were used include:
Metatron’s Cube (Each “path” (see the Kabbalistic tree of life) being charged via bloodletting)
Dee’s Monad (For the vessel)
An 8-pointed sigil of creation (see text: [DOHAS]“Dictionary of Occult, Hermetic and Alchemical Sigils - Fred Grettings) Lays in the center, on the point where one might “evoke” from the vessel.
-Additionally, on the same circle, the names of 8 archangels (including Lucifier, the rebellion of angels assumed heresy under the tenants of Kabbalah) as well as several corressponding arch-devils/demons, and their appropriate sigils (again see DOHAS). On the reverse, I inscribed several sigils/correspondencies of my ruling planet (e.g., saturn). This is done to heighten what essentially amounts to hypnotism.
Blessed ink was used to dye the vessel, the sigils, lines, etc, being burned on using a common wood burner - and charged/cemented individually using natural adhesive. The vessel, itself - as well as the center piece- is removable.
My Tarot Reading with the Phylactery On the properties of the device
The device has the aforementioned properties, as well as some more curious ones. They are as follows:
-Causes any sleeping above it vivid dreams/nightmares, usually shared (to some degree) with the creator. [not so much in the sense that the dreams are identical, but that dreams occur simultaneously] Other strange sleep patterns are recorded from the testimony of J.G., one of my roommates, below. I believe these patterns to be the cause of hypnosis; an experiment was done to confirm this, and the details, too, are listed below.
-Heightened ego in the user and those close to him/her.
-Heightened awareness, intelligence, and control/dominion over others. [needs annotation;]
Other affects/side affects are minor, and difficult to explain or contribute to any one source of magick - and have been ommitted from this report.
On it’s usage:
Past the simple research notes and rhetorric, the usage of a phylactery is quite lengthy. For the most effect, it is to be charged once initially - by placing shaped stone (tiny jade pyramids were used), flat on one side, on the ends of ends of each sphere. These stones were then placed in the mouth of the user, and deposited directly into the phylactery from there, blood being let from both hands to further charge each “side” of the the Cube. Also to be deposited:
A ring of onyx and silvir
The remains of the lit incense (after the ritual)
During, three cones of incense were lit, and the mirror was placed vertically behind it - as if for scrying. Additionally, 6 candles were lit on the inner cube/hexagram/spheres - the vessel and incense being on the innermost sphere. Afterwards, an open-eyed meditation was done on the mirror - if succesful, the room will become completely black (spreading from the mirror), and you will be as if in your “astral plane”. From here, imagining the storing of memories, personalities, etc, into the center vessel should be easily accomplished. Repeat this to call them forth. (This allows speech with your former dominant “I’s”, see Gurdjief - The Fourth Way). No banishing is to be preformed by the user, before or after.
For 12 months, the user should, on the day, and hour of his ruling planet, charge the phylactery once again.

Testament from J.G. & S.J/S/E.
Spoiler:
01:32-02:00
(On the second consecutive night which was the night that S.B. and R.E. went to the Oyster Bar for her
Birthday)
At exactly 01:32 she had started drawing approximately the same designs as the night before with the
same hand in the same direction. It was with her left hand (her being left-handed) and with her left
forefinger she continued to draw a triangle with a zig-zag line starting from the top of the triangle to
the right and then to the left and back down again as the zig-zag sword path on the Qabbalistic Tree of
Life. After this was over, sudden and constant violent jerks, as if a seizure or full body spasm persisted
and mostly incoherent mumbling for the duration of this. Having not slept much the night before and
being both tired “of it” and slightly concerned (for I couldn’t help but feeling when she pointed this time
she was pointing at something more than nothing and that this “something more than nothing” was
causing this, and other, strange behavioral activity). I proceeded to perform Liber XXV in my mind with
the Names as presented in The Book of Lies. At the end, as if performed physically, there was a large
mental emphasis on the six rayed star in ruby red. She woke up after a violent jerk after I had finished
the meditation and was concentrating on the six rayed star.
Later this morning (or early afternoon) she had spoken to me about the dream she had. To the best of
her, and my, recollection it is as follows:
Her, her sister, sisters’ fiancé, brother, nephews and myself were in her fiancé’s car. We were all lost,
going around in circles as it were. We decided to stop at a place with natural rocky outcrop features
surrounding us and the landscape was rather similar to a desert. Everyone had gotten out and decided
to sit around (I am guessing in a situation similar to lawn chairs and a camp ground) in the middle
of this rocky outcrop. Everyone was talking and carrying on like normal, except that everyone was
basically ignoring her. Out of nowhere, tons of snakes described as camouflage appeared to her as if
they couldn’t been seen before until they had moved. Everyone else either couldn’t see them or was
not bothered by them regardless of her cries aloud about them. She came to me and asked “Are these
snakes poisonous?” According to her I replied that they were but acted as if I was not to be concerned
with her worries and as if I was being bothered by her and cared not that she was threatened. After
nobody showed any concern as well she had no choice but to try and climb on one side of the outcrop to
try and escape a rushing hoard of venomous camouflaged snakes.
She had reached a point where she could no longer go up any further and the snakes continued when
a lion cub had started to walk up to her. Her immediate concern was that if a lion cub is to be seen
with her the mother lion would be furious and attack her. Sure enough, a mother did appear but with
concern. The lioness calmed her down and assured her that she would take her to a spot that was safe
and show her how to get out of the current situation. The lioness is said to have all the attributes of a
neighbor dog, an elderly female, Nadia, who, the night before, had come and showed her attention.
Immediately from there we were all back in the car. This time we were still going around in circles but
being chased. She said that the general feeling was that someone was trying to run us off from the spot
we were or are in…as if it was the owner of the property or something. Perhaps they had a gun, and it
was as if they were armed and that they were, in fact, trying to harm us. She referred to this entity as
a demon or “something like that”. Her sister’s fiancé`, all this while everyone is still ignoring her for the
most part, hands her a flare gun and it is cocked and ready to fire. He specifically tells her not to let it
shoot off because it is the last flare that we have. As she holds it, it starts to go off and gets really hot.
She has no choice but to point it out the window. She is in utter hopelessness for she has no choice but
to either let the flare go or to blow her hand off. She tries to hold it as long as possible and lets it go in
utter despair…as if that flare was everyone’s only hope for survival and she had just thrown it all away.
After our flare goes off, in the distance ahead and to the side of us, another flare, a red flare exactly like
ours, shoots off in the distance. She reported that her feelings upon this was that there was someone
out there…either someone like us or someone out there to help us eventually. This was the end of the
dream and when she woke up.
The aforesaid story, feelings of which and any associations thereof are all hers. The only associations
I had were that a few nights prior I had showed her a video of a Zoologist Dave Salmoni from Into
the Pride where he is playing with lion cubs in the wild and how well the lions took to it. The snakes I
assumed to have something to do with my specialization in herpetology and with venomous serpents.
After she mentioned a red flare that shot off right before a rescuing flare towards the end, I naturally
thought of my performance of Liber XXV and the star ruby hexagram.
It should further be noted here that after going through the dream with me about two times that during
the duration of the whole explanation she seemed to dwell on the lions, especially the lioness, and how
helpful and caring she was. After she had tired of telling me the story she continued on about the lions.
I can’t fully explain what she perceived, obviously, and she seemed to have a hard time as well, but, all
I know is that the cub seemed to be roughly normal but the mother has a “different coat, almost like
a cheetah but still like a lion”. I had also made sure to ask the sex of the lions and she was certain the
mother was female and the cub, she didn’t know, but on thinking about it the mother still “…might have
had a bit of a mane like a young male lion whose hasn’t grown out all the way yet.” She also mentioned
that something was slightly off about the face…this notwithstanding, she was nevertheless a female lion
mother and the mother of the cub.
