Almadel Operation, Armon

08/10/2025. 06:10AM. Almadel operation to invoke Armon. The setup today is different. I am performing inside for the first time. In lieu of charcoal, I am using a heated ceramic dish, which has a tea light candle under a censor, to hold oils and waxes. It is black, and it is too tall to sit under the Almadel.

So I've placed it to the side so that the vapor can be as close as possible. It has some residual cedar oil which I am letting burn out as much as possible before the beginning of the operation.

I think the smell will mix well with the mastic. I've set up on the floor of my room facing south. Wearing black morning robe. Feeling a little tired. I did not fall asleep until probably eleven or twelve last night.

Chemically sober. Last ingested marijuana about twelve hours ago. Sober now. Performing the operation quietly, in a stage whisper or low voice to avoid waking my wife and my dog who are in an adjacent room.

I intend to use this interior setup for the remainder of the year while it is too cold and wet to be outside.

Additional modifications: today I am using a clear quartz crystal stone atop the gold talisman on a small plastic ring to elevate the stone and hold it from rolling away. And I'll be invoking Armon into the crystal stone.

The stone has previously been used only in a casual attempt to invoke an angel via John Dee's recommended method, Though I did not adhere fully to the method prescribed.

This crystal stone is being dedicated to the Almadel operation and invocation of angels only as recommended by… I forget if it was John Dee or another magician who recommended having a crystal stone dedicated only to angels instead of also using it to invoke grimoric spirits or demons, for example.

Additionally, my wife has prepared a druidic Ogham spell bag, which contains a variety of native species which when combined improves my communication with the other world. It will be sitting nearby in each of my Almadel operations now.

[invocation, as usual]

[reception as usual, as the face of Armon resolves in the crystal]

[petition]

I desire that you assist me in elevating my spirit and perception and wisdom. I humbly ask that you give my name in recommendation to your angelic brethren. I am open to their appearance, guidance, and wisdom as I am open to yours.

Clean the mud from my eyes that I may see truly. And clean the mud from my ears that I hear clearly your words. 

Thank you. I look forward to meeting you and your brethren again. May we work to accomplish the great mission of the Lord.

Post operation

The cedar oil is slightly irritating to the throat and caused me to stop and cough a few times. I will try to burn out the residual oil before the next operation. I think this operation was successful too.

In the crystal stone after the invocation, I was gazing into the stone and letting my mind be clear of thoughts and trying not to impose any kind of internal visuals into my interpretation of what I saw in the stone, which has a number of natural fractures, inclusions, bubbles, imperfections, and things. It's not a perfectly clear glass looking orb, but you can see through it.

For a little while, nothing seemed to be different about the orb, although it was pretty. And then in a moment, although nothing changed in the things that I was seeing in the orb, they seemed to snap together in a different way where suddenly the reflection of two of the candle points became pupils, and Armand's face appeared in a hazy silvery gray.

And I could make out the shape of a man with a gaunt face, almost skull like, with the illuminated pinpoints of his eyes from the reflection of the candles in front.

The reflection of the candles behind were at a point that looked like they could almost be very small little horns or some such thing. And he looked very severe and… not angry, but maybe untrustworthy or skeptical.

Initially, I don't think he had a particularly high opinion of me after the reception and the petition. When I put the mastic onto the oil sensor, I felt his opinion shift towards me and that it was more positive.

When I asked that he recommend me to his, brethren, I felt like that was a suitably selfless petition. While meditating upon the stone further and listening to see if he had any particular guidance, I heard or maybe perhaps rather received the impression that I should try to keep my mind clear while gazing at the stone like this.

After than I saw what could be described as a mist descending within the stone. The stone became much more opaque and white hazy, and the face of Arman went away. And the whole orb began to glow more brightly than it had been.

I believe at this point I was sitting, kneeling as before, and intentionally blowing lightly under the Almadel while gazing at it. I wanted to infuse my chi, my spirit, in offering and giving that to Armon. I had read the night previously about Frater Chassen's house spirit, Hiram, who feeds on aerosolized food and offerings. And I believe they were talking about the connection and nurturing of human life force as part of the offerings and how spirits respond to this.

And then lastly, that glowing mist eventually cleared and I did see Armon's face once again.

Although he still appeared just as gaunt and severe as before, I felt like he was much more kindly disposed towards me than when he initially appeared.

It is somewhat awkward performing the operation indoors as I have to be relatively quiet, and I cannot do all of the Almadel operation instructions as written. For example, I was unable to fit the oil sensor underneath the Almadel. It is not the right color. It has residual oil in it. There's the risk of being distracted by the noises of the house. Though today was quite quiet. 

I was quite pleased that I was able to see something in the stone. Not as a dramatic a vision as a movie or anything like that. But the face was quite intuitively presented, and I found it interesting that it appeared so skeletal. With the glowing eyes, I would say it looked almost demonic.

I'm hopeful that in the coming weeks I'll have more spiritual contact with angels in my dreams and my waking life. They've certainly been on my mind a lot over the last month or so since I started doing the Almadel operations.

Outcome 8/10/2025

Later that same day I took 2CB, and I set out with the intention that this trip would open me to further communication from the angels and Armon. At one point I sat gazing into the same crystal stone, held in my hand, while listening to music. I began intoning Armon’s name. Eventually a face resolved itself, but it didn’t respond to the name Armon. I asked her name, and she responded “Aliel”. I asked her office, and she replied it was to teach. I thanked her for joining me on today’s journey - an endless look and discovery of all that the creator has laid out for us to enjoy. She smiled at that. 

I have been learning from the music and crystal that some things of enjoyment are in the fine details that cannot be resolved in moments that are loud, busy, public, or exciting in their own right. For a while I held the stone so that my left and right eye each beheld it separately without merging it into a single crystal. My right eye was more inclined to perceive what “is” and my left more inclined to what it “meant” or its subjective qualities. It was when I focused with my left that I began to have stronger visions like Aliel in my crystal.
