THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS

The Lord at thy right hand shall wound even kings in the day of His wrath.

So, I’ve been wanting to create a Jupiter box and get my money situation sorted out for the coming apocalypse, but I think I have been approaching it wrong. 

I recently did a tarot reading for myself, just one card, on if I really should do a Jupiter Box and I got the reverse King of Pentacles. At first I couldn’t really figure out what it was saying since the reverse King of Pentacles speaks of mismanaging money(Yes! you do need the box), focusing too much on money (No! You don’t need the box), or being stubborn (im always stubborn, im a Taurus). It didn’t fit, I have been thinking. Well I ignored it and tried to find supplies while out shopping for groceries and couldn’t find anything. Today, while cleaning the library, I found a small cardboard box that closes into itself. Its tiny but I think itll do. I think what the reverse King of Pentacles was telling me to not spend a lot of money on constructing this thing, and instead use what I can find or have. That’s the first step to saving money, reusing materials and reducing your foot print. I don’t have royal blue paint, but I do have light blue paint and I think for now it’ll work. 

Maybe I am looking at this all wrong and do in fact need to go out and spend money we cant spend to get the right and perfect supplies. But then, is that what witchcraft is about? Its about using what you have and what’s around you.

The first phase of my week-long magical project is done. I spent the last few days making the Dreams of Solomon Oil. Should’ve taken just three days, but due to bad organizational skills and a messy schedule, it took a bit longer. Thankfully, the steps were all laid out for me to do them at the right times and there was enough space to finish it in time.

My girlfriend's going on a trip to Japan so I made her a passport sleeve with one of the pentacles of the Moon from the Veritable Key of Solomon etched on it for safe travel. This is the first wallet-shaped thing I've made, the first time I've tried using dye, and the first time I've tried gluing along stitch lines. The stitches came out wobblier than they did on my last project but GF says she likes it and who am I to argue?

Working on a new product line aw yeah. Who wouldn't want a wallet engraved with a Jupiter pentacle to obtain the greatest honours and dignities?

God damn do I love making planetary pentacles. This one is for a friend, for help with a court case.

Consecration of my shiny new set of Mars pentacles (day and hour of Mars, plus a waning Moon, which I feel is very helpful for the sort of malefic work these pentacles are used for) plus a little extra spellwork.

Huson's Mars incense for works of wrath and chastisement smells vile, by the way.

I had Holst's 'Mars, the Bringer of War' playing on repeat while I did the working and it ended just as I finished the ritual and closed the Circle. I love when stuff like that happens.

On Wednesdays we wear mixed colours.

I did a consecration of my Mercury pentacles. My home-made Mercury incense turned out amazingly and I'm super happy with how it smelled.

I will freely admit that I mostly did this so I could use magic to get better rolls while playing Dungeons and Dragons on Friday - the Veritable Key has different uses for many of the pentacles from the Mathers Key and a lot of the Mercury ones are described as being good for gambling and games of chance.
