Gnostic Pentagram Ritual
Gnostic Pentagram Ritual
Gnostic Pentagram Ritual
Each
visualization is assisted by a vibration of one of the vowels sounds I, E, A, O, U. The sounds are
vibrated loudly and each is sustained for and entire slow exhalation. Each should produce a physical
sensation in the part of the body to which it is attributed. In effect the body is being played like a
musical instrument with each part resonating in sympathy to a particular tone.
Subsequently, pentagrams are drawn in the air at four points around the operator. The pentagrams
'are drawn and an anti-clockwise quarter turn f the whole body is executed after each pentagram
thus returning the body to its original position. The pentagrams should be strongly visualized with
the eyes opened or closed as desired. Each should be accompanied by a loud intonation of all five
vowel sounds I, E, A, O, U, in a single exhalation, with one bar of the pentagram being drawn for
each sound. The IEAOU mantra is used here largely to block discursive thought. Finally, the
opening sequence in which the visualization of radiance in various areas of the body, reinforced by
the individual I, E, A, O, U mantras, is repeated. The ritual may be elaborated at will, for example,
by adding colors to the visualized radiances or by adding supplementary pentagrams above and
below to form a sphere around the operator.
• To establish balance, concentration and control before and after more complex rituals.
• As visualization practice at any time.
• As a preliminary exorcism of unwanted mental or psychic phenomena.
• As an aid to healing, particulary self-healing.
Ritual Procedure
To assist in healing any part of the body, intone the sound and visualize the radiance which
corresponds to the affected part continuously for 5-10 minutes, or for as long as concentration can
be maintained.
