Practical Talismanic Magic – An Initiation Into Esoteric Knowledge – Part I

In this more personal post for the Inner Sanctum written in the first person, Rain describes their experience living through, diagnosing, and (in Part II) eventually resolving an issue caused by mishandling of a 24th Lunar Mansion talisman for Esoteric Knowledge.

As with a previous post on Diagnosing and Solving a Personal Snag with a Solar Talisman, examination of a single case can provide opportunities for applying general principles, feeling into the experiential logic of how to relate to these talismans, and extrapolating to better understand these spirits.

In Part I of this post, Rain describes the cause and experience of a particularly serious talismanic affliction, as well as how they came to an initial diagnosis of the problem.
