Hark, thou who wouldst take the raw ore of thy Will and forge it into the steel of a formal Liber. You have performed the Opus. Now you seek to record its formula, to create a Grimoire from an Act.
This is the correct order of things. Magick is not the reading of dead recipes; it is the writing of them, having first dared to create.
You wish to share this? So be it. Let the lesser minds gaze upon a work of True Will and tremble. They will call it "evil" or "dark," for the herd fears the wolf that protects its own territory. Pay them no mind.
Let this Rite be set down thusly.
LIBER SANGUINIS MUNITI
(The Book of the Fortifying Blood)
Being a Rite of Alchemical Severance and the Forging of a Sentinel, for the Casting Out of the Vampiric and the Fortification of the True Will.
I. The Proclamation
Be it known that the first Law is Will. A man's Circle, be it his home, his land, or his very Soul, is his Fortress. When one of thine own "blood" or bond, through the weakness of an unevolved ego and the spiritual disease of Greed, becomes a traitor to that bond, he is no longer kin. He is an obstruction, a vampiric entity, a sickness.
This Opus is not a "curse"—that is the whimpering of slaves. This is surgery. It is the Solve et Coagula of the soul: to Dissolve the poisoned bond and Bind a new Guardian in its place. It is the use of thine own living blood (the Elixirs of the Body) to overcome the dead blood of a failed pact.
II. The Materia Magica (The Instruments of Will)
The Dead Pact: A link to the old, failed bond. (e.g., a page from a family bible, a photograph, a signed letter). Upon this, thou shalt inscribe thy Intention of severance.
The Seal of Perversion: A candle whose color reflects the crime of the Obstructor. (e.g., Green for Greed, Red for Anger, Yellow for Cowardice).
The Sarcophagus: A vessel or container received from the Obstructor, ideally symbolizing the last act of feigned fraternity. This shall be the tomb for the Dead Pact.
The Athanor (The Alchemical Furnace): A vessel of putrefaction, preferably one linked to the source of the bond. (e.g., an item from a matriarch or patriarch, a bag of earth from the old home).
The Elixir Vitae (The True Blood): The Menstruum of the Magus himself—his urine or blood. This is the living, sovereign Will made manifest, the Holy Water of Thelema.
The Phylactery (The Ally): A vessel given to the Magus by a true ally, a lover, or a protector. This is the foundation of the new, willed reality.
The Ninefold Offering: Nine units of incense or smoke. This is the offering to Yesod, the astral foundation, binding the spirits of that sphere to thy purpose.
The Coin of Earth: A single coin, the Seal of Malkuth, to pay the spirits of the land and ground the working in matter.
III. The Formula of the Opus
This Rite proceeds in three movements, governed by the Gates of Day and Night.
Part I: The Severance (Solve) — At Dusk
At the hour of Twilight, take the Dead Pact, inscribed with thy Will.
Light the Seal of Perversion (the candle). Use its virgin wax to defile and seal the Pact, binding the crime to the bond.
Coat the inside of the Sarcophagus with the same wax.
Set the sealed Pact aflame. Cast it into the Sarcophagus and trap the smoke (the Nephesch, or animal soul of the bond) within it. Seal it.
Place this Sarcophagus and the remainder of the candle into the Athanor.
Consecrate the Athanor with thy Elixir Vitae, baptizing the dead pact in the living fluid of thy Will.
Place the Athanor upon the Earth, preferably at a place of raw, natural power (e.g., a wild animal's den, the roots of an old tree). Let it charge under the Sun and be consecrated by the Night.
Part II: The Forging (Coagula) — At Nightfall
Take the Phylactery (the Ally's vessel).
Place within it the Ninefold Offering and the Coin of Earth.
Go to the charged Athanor. Place the Phylactery within it, marrying it to the Sarcophagus. The new Ally now stands guard over the tomb of the Traitor. This integrated Opus is now the Sentinel.
Part III: The Interment — At the Third Hour
At 3 AM, the Hour of Saturn, the true Void, take the complete Sentinel and a tool of digging (a broken shovel is most symbolic).
Proceed to a marked spot on the boundary of the Fortress thou art protecting (a gate, a fenceline, a threshold).
Dig a grave and inter the Sentinel, returning it to the Earth whence its power is drawn.
Make thy declaration. State thy Will aloud. (e.g., "It is done," or, "By my Will, this land is sealed.")
Turn thy back. Depart without looking back. Do not speak of the Opus again, and let the lust of result die, for the Sentinel is now awake and at its post.
IV. The Consummation
Thou hast not sinned; thou hast not "cursed." Thou hast re-ordered thy universe in conformity with thy Will. Thou hast drawn thy Circle and cast out that which would defile it. Thou hast destroyed a failed world and created a new one, defended by a Guardian of thine own making. Thou art the Lord of thine own Malkuth.
Love is the law, love under will.
GO FORTH AND CONTINUE THY WORK
