And mods dont you tell me about nice policies, he started and i fisnied it.
Oh and i never said i knew Latin, it was translated from Latin.
And i meant semi translated. All the chanting is left in original form and i know how to prononce it.
And please keep your reccomendations about puting it away to yourself. If i wanted you opinion regarding demonology or my toporgaphy i would beat it out of you.
See ya.

Hey, that was pretty good. We rarely see flames in here, so we have to enjoy what little trickles through the omnipresent grasp of Mr Mushrooms. But that was good, really. Quite creative, too. I learned some new words, like trans-dimensional motherfucker and batrachian sea-devil. But what's a necromonomicum?

the necronomicon is a peice of literature supposedly written by a mad arab that gives instructions on how to summon a race of elder gods from outer space.
It doesn't seem to exist in a modern context and was made popular by H.P. Lovecraft and Alastair Crowley. A modern version can be purchased at book stores but I question it's historical and invocational relavance.

Yes, I think I've heard of that somewhere and then did forget again...
So, does the real thing exist or was it invented by Lovecraft?

It is possible that the "mad arab" was indeed a real person and it is quite possible he did write a collection of insane ramblings.
But to say that they do work as a grimorie, would be inapproperiate. The actual historical documents are, to the best of my knowledge, lost.
So, to answer your question, no it was not invented by lovecraft, only popularized by him.

Just doing my work, Nomad.
If he calms down he can come back and play nice.
Otherwise, it's "permaban" as they say in the business.
I am very tolerant of what goes on in here and read every post by every member.
With very few exceptions the people that post here are great.
IN was a newb that didn't realize the gravitas of his remarks.

The Necronomicon (Latin for Book of the Laws of the Dead) COULD be considered as an "astral" book. It is any collection of writing or collected wisdom (accessed however you like - book, dream, disturbing graffiti, bald guy masturbating in the basement) that, when read/accessed, can reduce your mind to paste. It is not a pleasant book. I and some others I know have had opportunity for the merest glance into its "pages" and believe me, to run screaming is the natural, healthy human reaction.
The Necronomicon is a metaphor for all that is forbidden, spiritually dangerous & unholy.
The Necronomicon may also be found in amusing paperback form at any major bookseller. In this form it is simply a collection of Sumerian magic ritual spiced with a little Lovecraftian "things-that-should-not-be" for flavour. the Avon edition is laughable but the Wilson/Hay edition is quite scholarly and was perpetrated by its authors as a serious hoax. Fooled many. Still does. This version cribs more from Crowley and John Dee than Sumerian sources. And as such, some of the rituals (such as the formula for the Angle-Web of Dho-nah) actually do seem to alter perception when performed. But only just.
And, apparently, you can also find a privately owned semi-translated Latin version of it in the hands of a Nazi-Illuminatus illiterate somewhere in the dreary housing tracts of England.
Guys like that bother me because you end up reading about them in the paper after they've ritually slaughtered some poor kid or homeless person, all to appease their dark gods. And they ruin Lovecraft for the rest of us.
Enough outta me.

I have some thoughts but perhaps we should move the subject into a new thread, as the "Locating A Shaman" thing seems to have petered out somwhat?
Sorry bout that EarthDroid, I take responsibility! 
Anyways, question for ya EarthDroid -- have I met you in person? You sound an awful lot like this fellow I met at the Connect Festival outside Regina last summer. Were you there?

I agree to a certain degree. If you put it in your mind you wish for one to enter your path, one just may!
I'd sugest checking out the local native cultures in your area. There's somthing to be learned from everything, even your local native american community. The journey has to start somplace right? Why not check out what the people around your area before trapsing through the Amazon? It'll be cheaper and if anything give you some foundation for dealing with diffrent cultures.

Dude you sound like a catholic yerning for Sunday church. Walk your own path, and if it somehow involves a shaman it will happen on it's own.
