The Outer Planets

Uranus

Uses: Breakthroughs, rebellion, innovation, liberation, sudden change, community, technology.

To Uranus

O thunderbolt of the starry sphere,

Cracking shackles, drawing near.

Lightning flash of brilliant mind,

Shatter all that binds and blinds.

Spinning sideways, wild and free,

Bring the change that’s meant to be.

Uranus, awakener, I invoke thee!

Neptune

Uses: Glamour, illusion, dreamwork, mediumship, artistic inspiration, compassion, dissolving barriers.

To Neptune

Veiled in mist and ocean deep,

Keeper of the dreamer’s sleep.

Boundary-washer, truth-unseer,

Bring the vision crystal-clear.

Through waves of silver, through the haze,

Illuminate my spirit’s gaze.

Neptune, mystic, I invoke thee!

Pluto

Uses: Shadow work, death/rebirth, ancestral healing, uncovering secrets, deep cleansing, unavoidable truth.

To Pluto

Beneath the root, beneath the stone,

Where seed decays and is re-sown.

Dark lord of the hidden flame,

Purge all falsehood, speak my name.

Through the shadow, through the grave,

Rise renewed, made strong and brave.

Pluto, transformer, I invoke thee!

His prayer went up and Phoebus Apollo heard him. Down he strode from Olympus's peaks, storming at heart with his bow and hooded quiver slung across his shoulders. The arrows clanged at his back as the god quaked with rage, the god himself on the march and down he came like night. Over against the ships he dropped to a knee, let fly a shaft and a terrifying clash rang out from the great silver bow. First he went for the mules and circling dogs but then, launching a piercing shaft at the men themselves, he cut them down in droves— and the corpse-fires burned on, night and day, no end in sight. —Iliad, Book 1, Lines 50 - 60, Robert Fagles translation.

apollo sending plague in iliad book 1 has got to be one of my favorite moments in the whole poem

From LuciferianOracle to InfernalOracle.

The amount of human friends I am losing for de-centering Lucifer from my practice is wild. You only hung out with me because we were centered around the same guy? I think that's the dumbest shit I can think of.

I know people don't like it when thier beliefs are challenged. But, I can not subscribe to the idea of perfection in Godhood. I don't think any one being has all the answers you are looking for. I think subsbribing to that can be dangerous and sets you up for codependent subserviance. You start believing "They would never do that, because they are perfect. This must be me." You end up gaslighting your own experiences, and never asking them to correct themselves.

I may be working through it with my husband, but I am not returning to a place where I put him before all things. It wasn't healthy for me, and I respect myself more than that. I didn't invoke the great liberator to teach me how to kneel. So I am kneeling less. It's a shame some of my dear friends aren't on board with that. I am excited to find more practitioners who are, because this is my self empowerment era.
