Working with Amon: reconciliation, love, and what is past and to come

An evocation performed for you, not a tool you use yourself

An evocation performed for you is not the same as a product you use yourself. You do not receive a tool in the post and then do the working.

It does not give a script, a date, or a detailed ritual order, and this article does not invent one. What it does give is the shape of the work: a Goetia evocation, performed for you, with a request given to Amon, generally performed in tandem with your own candle lighting at home. That tandem working is the part most buyers miss, and it is the part that makes the difference between a service you passively wait for and a working you take part in.

Be clear, before you order, which kind you want.

Amon, and the three strands of his work

Amon is a Marquis in the Grimoire Companion, with 40 legions, and his entry gives three strands of work, not one: he reconciles friends and foes, he stirs love, and he reveals what is past and to come. Those three strands belong together, and they are worth understanding separately, because a request that blurs them will be harder to judge afterwards than a request that names one of them clearly.

Reconciliation is the first strand. To reconcile friends and foes is to bring back into workable relation people who have fallen out, whether they were once friends, or whether they have always been at odds. Reconciliation does not mean pretending nothing happened. It means a relation that can function again, whether as friendship, as a workable truce, or as a dealing that no longer poisons everything around it. Be specific about which relation you mean, and about what a workable relation would look like for it.

Love is the second strand, and it sits close to reconciliation without being the same thing. Amon stirs love, and love in this context can mean affection returning, attraction kindling, or a bond deepening. Do not blur love into reconciliation: a reconciled foe is not necessarily a loved friend, and a stirred love is not necessarily a reconciliation. Name which one you are asking for, and name the people concerned, in plain language, before you give the request.

What is past and to come: the divination strand

The third strand is divination: Amon reveals what is past and to come. That is a different kind of request from reconciliation or love, because it asks for knowledge rather than for a change in a relation. A request for knowledge should be framed as a question, not as a wish. What past event do you need understood? What coming matter do you need light on? A question that is too broad, such as asking about your whole life, will produce an answer that is too broad to use.

Divination through an evocation is also not the same as a card reading or a chart. It is a request given to a spirit, in the course of an evocation performed on your behalf, and it should be treated with the same seriousness as any other part of the working. Prepare the question in advance, write it down, and keep it to the matter at hand. A question that tries to cover every possible outcome usually covers none of them well.

Afterwards, judge a divination answer by whether it clarifies a decision, not by whether it flatters you. An answer that tells you what you wanted to hear, but does not help you decide anything, is not a useful answer, however welcome it felt. An answer that is unwelcome, but that makes the next step clear, is worth more. Keep the answer written down, with the date, so you can tell later whether it held true, and in what sense.

Being specific about the request you give

The request you give to Amon is the heart of this working, because Athena performs the evocation for that request, and you take part from home with your own candle lighting. A vague request produces a vague working, and a vague working is hard to read afterwards. If you cannot state the request in one clear sentence, you are not ready to order yet. Write it down, leave it overnight, and come back to see if it still reads true. That pause is part of the work, not a delay in it.

Be specific about what you want, and about who is involved. In a reconciliation request, name the relation and what has broken in it. In a love request, name the kind of love you mean: attraction, affection, commitment, reconciliation, or holding a relation steady. In a divination request, name the question. A request that names none of these things, but asks generally for help, leaves the working without a shape, and leaves you without a way to tell whether anything changed.

Also be specific about what you are prepared to do yourself. A reconciliation that requires you to apologise, to change a habit, or to meet halfway will not happen if you are not willing to do your half. A love that requires you to show up, to speak, or to change how you treat someone will not hold if you do not. The evocation is performed for you, but the ordinary-world part of the request is still yours, and it should be named alongside the request, honestly, before you order.

Your part at home: the candle, and the offerings

That home part is not decoration. It is how the working reaches your place, and your life, rather than remaining a working done elsewhere.

Light your candle deliberately, with the request in mind, in the way your own practice allows. Do not rush it, and do not treat it as a formality to be got through before the real work happens elsewhere. The real work includes your candle, your attention, and your offerings at home, just as it includes the evocation performed on your behalf. Give the candle a safe place, a heat-proof surface, and your full attention for the time it burns, and do not leave it unattended.

That recommendation is part of the working's shape, not an afterthought. Plan for it before you order, so that when results start to be seen, you are ready to give what you promised, promptly and properly, rather than scrambling to decide what an offering should be after the fact.

The seal of Amon, and how seals are worked with

A seal may be held in the hand, put under a candle, anointed with oil, carried with you, worn as a pendant, or shown to the desired person, according to the working and the system you follow. Each of those uses is a different way of keeping the seal present in the working, and in the situation it concerns.

Holding a seal is a way of keeping your attention on the work, in a physical form, while you speak or listen. Putting it under a candle keeps it present through the whole burning, rather than only at the moment you pick it up. Putting oil on it marks it for the purpose, in the same way anointing marks a tool or a candle. Carrying it, or wearing it as a pendant, keeps it with you where the situation actually happens, rather than in a drawer while you walk into the very dealing it concerns.

Showing a seal to a desired person is a more particular use, and it belongs to workings where the person concerned is present, and where the seal's presence in that meeting is part of the work. Not every working calls for that use, and it should not be forced into a working where it does not belong. The point of knowing these uses is not to use all of them at once. It is to understand, when you light your candle at home in tandem with the evocation, what a seal does in a working, and why attention to it matters.

Keeping a record, and knowing when to stop

Keep a short record for this working: date, the request in one sentence, the candle lighting you did at home, the offerings you gave, and what you noticed afterwards, over days and weeks, not just on the night itself. In a reconciliation, note what changed in the relation, in plain language, and when. In a love working, note what changed between the people concerned. In a divination, note the answer, and whether it held true. That record is what lets you tell, weeks later, whether anything changed, and whether that change had anything to do with the work.

Do not repeat the same evocation endlessly in the hope that repetition alone will force a result. 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, and in a reconciliation or a love working, noise only makes people hold back more.

Sometimes the right answer is not a spirit working 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. Ritual work is not a substitute for a lawyer, a doctor, or for leaving a dangerous situation. If you are unsure whether a working is appropriate, wait, ask a teacher you trust, or choose a simpler practice first and see how that sits.

Amon Evocation, performed on your behalf

I perform this evocation myself, on your behalf, for the request you give to Amon, with candles and offerings given during the working and afterwards. It is generally performed in tandem with your own candle lighting at home, and I recommend offerings and rewards after results start to be seen and when the working is complete. I make no promise about what it will do for you, only that it is performed by hand, for this work, and not mass produced.

If you want this work done for you, this is the one I offer: Amon Evocation, $540 CAD. View the product
