Date: Tue, 31 Jul 2001 20:17:11 GMT 50010731 VI! om Hail Satan! "m0bius" : > I want to write in my own blood and need to make ink. > Does anyone have a recipe? > Also what is the best paper material to write on? I used blood straight and a stylus, dipped in the blood directly and applied to the paper. the paper I used was some I'd created *myself* at a booth in a no-longer- existing Renaissance Faire (:(.....). it is said that the skin of animals (sheep/parchment) is valuable for magical activities, but there are also conjures who use torn brown paper and witches and others who prefer some expensive paper/"parchment" they obtain from a shop. "best" here is somewhat subjectively-determined. it may be valuable to consider the purpose of the working (e.g. I had already used the home-made paper on the other side for a particularly valuable sigil, and had written on its back the pact I made with Satan which I was signing in my own blood). someone in already suggested mixing the blood with charcoal powder, which sounds interesting. I'm not sure that any coagulating and drying substance might not clog up a modern pen. perhaps it would be valuable to mix 6 parts red ink with 1 part blood and pour this into a modern reservoir pen. dilution of magical elements into functional substance is a common and valuable magical method. blessed beast! nagasiva -- emailed replies may be posted ----- "sa avidya ya vimuktaye" ----- "that which liberates is ignorance" http://www.luckymojo.com/nagasiva.html hoodoo catalogue: send postal address to catalogues@luckymojo.com
