“There are two gifts which God has bestowed upon man alone, and on no other
mortal creature. These two are mind and speech; and the gift of mind and
speech is equivalent to that of immortality. If a man uses these two gifts rightly,
he will differ in nothing from the immortals... and when he quits the body, mind
and speech will be his guides, and by them he will be brought into the troop of
the gods and the souls that have attained to bliss.” - Hermetica
WHAT IS MAGIC
You will see the term ‘magic’ appear quite a few times in this booklet, but also
in my other work. But what is meant by magic? Magic can be defined in
countless ways. Here is one of the simpler definitions:
“Magic is the cause and effect relationship between mind and observable
reality.”
Here is a more complex one:
“Magic is the art and science of intentionally changing states of consciousness
through the help of certain tools or practices. When a change in a state of
consciousness is achieved, you change your perception and experience of
reality, for The ALL is mind.”
In short, when I speak of magic I’m not talking about stage magic like pulling
rabbits out of hats, or the fantasy magic of Gandalf and Harry Potter. I am
speaking of the ability to influence and bring about change in our inner and
outer realities.
If this sounds confusing to you, I highly recommend you to view my video
series on the Hermetic principles on my YouTube Channel. In that series I delve
deeper into the nature of reality according to the ancient Hermetic masters and
how you can use their principles to master magic.
In this particular case of practical magic, we use the book of Psalms as our tool
of choice to change our own personal states of consciousness and affect our
physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual reality. There are no limits as to what
you can achieve and accomplish using Psalm magic. You can use it to double
your income, reverse curses, get rid of your wrinkles, build a profitable
business, marry your ideal partner, heal parts of your mind or body that are
holding you back, attain new and expanded levels of awareness and reach
higher levels of enlightenment. The book of Psalms is not just a book of
manifesting miracles, it is a book of awakening. As you experience the Psalms
yourself you will learn the full scope of their potential. Always remember, the
knowledge you gain from your own experience far outweighs whatever I tell
you in this booklet.
WHY PSALM MAGIC
When I look at today’s esoteric and spiritual landscape, I unfortunately see too
many people simply consuming content and deluding themselves with
ineffective spiritual practices. Few people have actually developed a practical
and working practice that they are actively using to change and improve their
life and themselves. My personal view on spirituality, mysticism and magic, is
that it should be used for two main reasons. The expanding of one’s
consciousness, and the fulfilling of all desires.
The beauty of Psalm magic, is that it can accomplish both at the same time. It is
also very simple and foolproof as long as you follow the basic instructions that I
will give you. All you require is a moderate level of dedication, and access to a
book of Psalms (I recommend a standalone Psalter, instead of using a Bible).
“The which Psalms, are nothing else, but a means unto the seat and Majesty of
God: whereby you gather with yourselves due power, to apply your natures to
the holy Angels.” - The archangel Uriel to Dr. John Dee, March 10th 1582
THE SPELL BOOK OF GOD
It is no coincidence that the ancient gods of magic, beings like Odin, Thoth,
Mercury and of course, Hermes Trismegistus himself, were also known as
scribe gods, or gods of writing. Alongside magic, the art of language and
spelling was part of their repertoire as well. This is exactly where we get the
word ‘spell’ from. A spell is the simple act of using language and words
combined with intent to cause change in reality. According to this logic, simple
affirmations are spells as well. However, if you’ve tried affirmations in the past,
your success rate might have left you with a sour taste. This is where the Psalms
come in.
The book of Psalms may be described as a book of blessings, miracle working,
or even as the spell book of God. Remember that when I speak of God, I do not
speak of the Abrahamic god, but of God as viewed through the lens of
Hermeticism.
When studying, and especially when practically working the Psalms magically,
it is incredibly important to understand that the Psalms are all about YOU. They
are not about historical figures, or some Christian or Hebrew God in the sky.
They are about a psychological drama that takes place in the mind of man. They
were written by magicians for magicians, in the language of symbolism, the
language that is spoken by the subconscious mind. They are a roadmap to be
followed to awaken to your true nature, to claim your divine inheritance.
“But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.”
- James 1:22
1. Find a private place with minimal distractions. Close your eyes, relax
your body and mind. If you know how to, you can meditate to enter a
state akin to sleep or any other state to empower your magic.
2. State your desire in form of your statement of intent. Ensure that your
statement of intent is in the present tense. While doing so, it is useful to
make a physical connection with either your Psalter, and/or your written
down statement of intent. Hold them in your hand while you move
through the next steps.
3. Voice the Psalm by simply reading out loud the Psalm you’ve chosen
without pausing. Do so with authority and confidence in a clear and well-
formed voice. Don’t parrot the words, but use emotion and conviction.
4. Re-read the Psalm once more, however this time do so slowly, verse by
verse or even line by line. You may do this in silence, mentally.
Contemplate the words and sentences in front of you in order to plant
magical seeds in your subconscious mind. What do they mean? What is
truly written here? How do these words and verses apply to the magic I
am currently working? This is truly the most important step. Do not be
intellectually lazy and put in your best effort to decipher the symbolism.
Take your time with this step, and be open to any revelatory or unique
interpretations.
5. Close your eyes, and imagine yourself in a scene with your desire
fulfilled. Use your five senses to make it real. What would it be like if
you now had your desire. Don’t think of it in the future, collapse space
and time. Bring it into the now with your imagination, your spiritual
sensation.
Repetition is key to success when it comes to Psalm magic. Repeat the above
blueprint once a day (at least) until you either feel it to be done, or when you are
beginning to see definitive signs that your desire is about to be fulfilled. An
excellent time to perform Psalm magic is right before going to bed, or early in
the morning. I recommend you do both, meaning you work a single Psalm twice
a day. Sometimes it is wise to repeat a specific Psalm a set number of times.
You can learn which Psalms by watching the Psalm playlist.
At this point you might be wondering which Bible or book of Psalms to use, as
there are many different versions and translations. Personally, I would
recommend a Catholic Bible, or the King James Version. You can also get a
dedicated Psalter.
“All are on the Path, whose end is THE ALL. All progress is a Returning Home.
All is Upward and Onward, in spite of all seemingly contradictory appearances.
Such is the message of the Illumined.” - The Kybalion
PSALMIC INITIATION
Initiation means beginning. In this instance, it is the beginning of awakening to
the true nature of yourself and reality. The book of Psalms is a complete system
of (magical) initiation. While it certainly can (and I suggest you do!) be used to
obtain desires and fulfill wishes, it can, and most assuredly will, lead to an
expansion in consciousness as well. If you have goals of becoming a magical
adept or increasing your levels of consciousness to be akin to that of an angelic
being or enlightened master then you should work the book of Psalms in its
entirety. When you work through all 150 Psalms (in numerical order or
otherwise) you will achieve the first degree of (magical) initiation. Do so for the
second time, and you will have achieved the second, and so on. It is important
to note that attempting to rush through the Psalms to finish a degree of initiation
is not wise. Doing so will only hurt your progress. Give yourself some time for
the divine seeds that are the Psalms to be planted firmly in your subconscious
mind. A single seed might become a tree, a bush or a beautiful flower. When
you plant every 150 of them in a disciplined and orderly manner, you will create
a divine garden in your own mind and consciousness. I suggest working with a
single Psalm for at least three days. This means that if you were to commit
yourself to this path, it will take you around one and a half years to complete
your first degree of initiation. Each time you go through a new round of Psalmic
initiation you will notice your power and wisdom increasing. The Psalms will
work better, faster, and you will notice that their (or is it really your own?)
potency has increased.
It is once more important to mention that this path of initiation is closed to no
one. Do not let any potential bad experiences or biases you might have against
the Abrahamic religions discourage you from walking this wonderful path.
If you are interested in Psalmic initiation I highly recommend you to go to my
YouTube Channel and watch my playlist filled with videos on each Psalm.
Doing so will allow you greater understanding what each specific Psalm can be
used for and how you can do so step by step. Even if you are (for some strange
reason!) not interested in practicing Psalm magic, I would highly recommend
you to view my videos on the Psalms as I will explain their true meaning, and in
doing so you will learn much about yourself and the nature of reality.

Using just the five collections of Psalms above you will be able to achieve any
goal you might have, including awakening or an ascension of consciousness,
often referred to as enlightenment. Remember that this is only possible when
working the Psalms correctly. Merely reading the Psalms is not enough.
I would still urge you to work through all of the 150 Psalms, especially if this is
the first time you are practically using the Psalms. Once you’ve obtained your
first degree of self-initiation you should look into using one or more of the
above listed collections on a regular basis.
The Psalms of Purification
The Purification Psalms is an incredibly potent collection of Psalms that I
myself and my students have used to purify ourselves from anything in life that
is holding us back, but mainly targets internal negative thoughtforms. The
magic number in this collection of Psalms is the number seven. If you are facing
problems that must be purified, work one of these Psalms each day for a total of
seven days. If your problems are of a greater nature, you may work one Psalm
seven times daily. If you are faced with absolutely life-ruining problems, work
it seven times seven for seven weeks.
“The words of the Lord are pure words: as silver tried by the fire, purged from
the earth refined seven times.” - Psalm 12:6
Working this collection of Psalms on a regular basis will get rid of all the
negative crap you’ve accumulated ever since you were born, returning you to a
more pure, divine state. The state that is the true you. If you’ve been facing a lot
of hardships in life, I highly recommend you to work this collection first before
you work on anything else.
The Psalms of Purification are 6, 32, 38, 51, 102, 130 and 143.
"God reigns over the nations; God sits on his holy throne." - Psalm 47:8
When you begin to work with the Inheritance Psalms, they act like a key that
unlocks various aspects of life. Their sacred resonance holds the power to bring
financial abundance, nurture your health, strengthen relationships, and boost
your career. These Psalms, kept close to your heart, reveal your divine
birthright, connecting you with infinite love. They help you manifest and
transform your life in a beautiful way in accordance with divine harmony.
The Psalms of Inheritance are 47, 93, 96, 97, 98 and 99.
Singing the Psalms engages multiple aspects of the practitioner's being: the
mental, emotional, and spiritual. Hermetic magic emphasizes the importance of
aligning these aspects to achieve harmony and effectiveness in one's endeavors.
By chanting or singing Psalms, practitioners tap into the power of their breath,
voice, and emotions, creating a symphony of energies that enhances their
connection to the divine forces they seek to invoke.
In a Psalm magic operation, singing the Psalms can be seen as an act of spiritual
evocation. The practitioner, by vocalizing the sacred verses, activates archetypal
energies associated with the Psalms. Each Psalm carries its own essence and
purpose, aligning with different intentions, from protection and healing to
manifestation and guidance. By singing these Psalms with devotion and
intention, the practitioner aligns themselves with the specific energies they wish
to harness.
It is important to note that if you feel self-conscious about your ability (or lack
thereof) to sing, you can also ‘vibrate’ the Psalms.
The use of short bursts of words, phrases, or verses in ancient and magical
languages like Latin, Greek, Hebrew, Arabic and others assumes a profound
role. These linguistic elements act as potent triggers, signaling importance to the
subconscious, spirits, and the divine forces at play. When skillfully integrated
with Psalms magic operations, these linguistic sparks become conduits for
transcendent communication and manifestation.
In Hermetic thought, language carries inherent power. Words are not just tools
for communication but vessels for energy and intention. Ancient languages like
Latin, Greek, and Hebrew are laden with esoteric significance, embodying
centuries of wisdom, mysticism, and connection to the divine. By incorporating
snippets of these languages into Psalms magic, practitioners tap into the currents
of ancient knowledge and invoke an aura of reverence that resonates deeply
with both the practitioner and the metaphysical realms.
From a spiritual perspective, these sacred languages hold a resonance with the
cosmic order. In Hermeticism, the principle of resonance suggests that aligning
oneself with higher vibrational frequencies opens the door to greater insight and
influence over reality. By introducing Latin, Greek, or Hebrew phrases into
Psalms magic operations, practitioners harmonize their intentions with the
archetypal energies these languages represent. This synchronization acts as a
channel, allowing the practitioner to transmit their desires more clearly to the
spiritual dimensions.
In the realm of spirits and divinity, the use of sacred languages carries a unique
significance. Just as a well-composed melody stirs emotions, the eloquence of
ancient languages evokes a sense of reverence. This respect for tradition and
sacredness forms a bridge of connection between the practitioner and the
spiritual entities they seek to engage with. The spirits or deities, understanding
the weight of these linguistic codes, are more likely to respond to the
practitioner's call, recognizing their earnestness and commitment.
In the practice of Hermetic magic, the act of transcribing the Psalms with one's
own hand holds power. This practice transforms the Psalms from mere words
on parchment to living conduits of energy that you can carry around with you as
a personal and permanent talisman or amulet. Writing has long been regarded as
a sacred act of creation. In the case of transcribing Psalms, the practitioner is not
merely copying words; they are actively engaging with the essence of the
Psalms. As the hand moves across the page, the practitioner's thoughts,
emotions, and intentions are infused into every stroke. This infusion establishes
a symbiotic link between the practitioner's energy and the Psalms' inherent
power, creating a personalized talisman of spiritual significance.
There are many ways to go about creating such an amulet, but here is a simple
example. Replace the following steps with step 4 from the Psalm magic
blueprint.
Embrace this mystical journey with an open heart, because within the verses of
the Psalms lie the radiant keys that illuminate the winding path toward the
realization of your innate divine nature. As you traverse this sacred road, be
prepared to stand in awe as the very fabric of transformation unfolds before you,
revealing its secrets like petals unfurling to the touch of the sun.
