The 8th Black Pullet ring: Summon spirits

The Black Pullet, and the eighth ring

The Black Pullet is a grimoire of rings and talismans, each one made for a particular purpose, and each one distinct from the others. That specificity is the whole point of the series. This article is about one ring only: the eighth ring, whose purpose, as given in its title, is to Summon spirits. It is not a general Black Pullet ring, and it is not interchangeable with the other rings in the series, nor with the eighth talisman, which is a separate item with its own price and its own form. If you order this ring, you receive one ring, made for this purpose, and that distinction matters before you order, not after it arrives.

Summoning, as a named purpose, is worth thinking about in plain terms before any ritual language is added to it. To summon is to call, to bring into presence, to ask a spirit to attend a working. A practitioner who takes that title seriously should ask, in their own notes, which spirits they have in mind, and why. Summoning in general, with no particular spirit, no particular question, and no particular purpose, is not a working. It is a gesture, and a gesture without a purpose is hard to read afterwards, and easy to regret. Name the spirit, or the kind of spirit, and the reason for calling, before you order.

A ring, worn for summoning work

Form matters here, because a ring is worn, and wearing is a daily practice in itself. A ring sits on the hand, where you see it, where you feel it, and where it goes with you through ordinary work as well as ritual work. That is different from a talisman kept in a pouch or laid on an altar. The ring form suits a summoning working that travels with you, and it asks something of you in return: that you wear it deliberately, that you know why you are wearing it, and that you do not treat it as ordinary jewellery one day and a ritual tool the next without noticing the change.

Before ordering, be clear about which form you want. The eighth ring and the eighth talisman share a number and a purpose in their titles, but they are not the same object, and one is not a cheaper version of the other. The ring is for the hand. The talisman is a separate piece, made and priced separately. Choosing between them is a practical decision about how you work, and it is better made now, while you are reading, than after a parcel arrives and you realise you wanted the other form.

Hand made, hand engraved in wax

The rings in this line are each hand made with the proper materials, and the designs are hand engraved right into the wax used to create the rings. That is a strong statement, and it is worth taking seriously, because it tells you what kind of object this ring is, and why it is made the way it is.

Hand engraving into wax means the design is cut by hand, by the practitioner who makes the ring, before the ring is cast. A hand engraved design carries the variations of hand work, and those variations are part of the making, not faults in it. Expect that difference. It is not a flaw in the order. It is the nature of the object.

Preparing a summoning working

Preparation is most of the work in summoning, and it begins before any calling is done. Clear the space you will use, set it aside for the purpose, and prepare yourself in the ordinary ways: bathe or wash, change into clothes you do not wear for errands, and avoid beginning when you are exhausted, drunk, or already agitated. A clear head is a working tool, just as much as the ring is, and it is the tool most often neglected in summoning work, where excitement can easily take the place of preparation.

Know what you are going to say, in your own words, and know what you are not going to say. A summoning that tries to call every spirit, for every purpose, at once, usually calls none of them well. Keep the calling to the spirit you named, and to the purpose you named, and keep the petition direct, honest, and limited to the matter at hand. If your practice calls for a formal form of address, use the form you have been taught. If it does not, plain, direct words said once, clearly, are better than a long improvisation that loses its shape halfway through. Work from the instructions and teaching you already follow. A general article like this one is not a substitute for proper teaching in summoning work, and it should not be used to invent a purpose for a spirit you have not studied.

Wearing the ring, calling, and closing properly

When the ring arrives, take time with it before you wear it for a working. Hold it, look at the design, and notice that it is not identical to any sample image you saw. That uniqueness is part of what you are working with. If your practice includes consecration or blessing of a new tool, do that work in the way you have been taught, and do not rush it because you are eager to summon. A tool that has been properly received and properly set aside for its purpose is easier to work with than one that was put straight on the hand in excitement and then forgotten about.

In the working itself, wear the ring deliberately, call as your practice requires, speak your petition clearly and once, rather than repeating it until it loses its shape, and then sit quietly for a time and listen, rather than filling every moment with more words. Close the working properly, in whatever way your practice requires, and put the tools away in their proper place. A summoning that has no clear closing often has no clear end either, and it drifts, in the room and in your own mind, long after the working should have ended. Closing is not a formality. It is part of the working.

Keeping a record, and knowing when to stop

Afterwards, keep a short record: the date, the spirit called and the purpose in one sentence, what you did, and what you noticed afterwards, over days and weeks, not just on the night itself. Note what was clear, what was vague, and what was probably your own expectation filling a gap, as honestly as you can. That honesty is not a lack of faith in the work. It is how you learn to tell, over months, what your summoning work actually shows you, and what is simply wishful thinking.

Do not summon endlessly, night after night, in the hope that repetition alone will force a presence. Do the work properly, once, observe, and then decide, calmly, whether a second working, a different approach, or no further working is the right next step. Repetition without reflection is not persistence. It is noise. Sometimes the right answer is not a summoning at all. If the situation is a legal matter, a safety matter, or a medical matter, deal with that matter in the ordinary world first, or at the same time. No guaranteed magical result is promised here. That wording is about the work itself, not about delivery dates for a physical item.
