Crowey: Oh Hermes, greek god of finances, oh sprightly Mercury of Romans, I invoke thee to grant me wealth!
Hermes: In whose name should be credited?
Crowey: Oh, great god, I am To Mega Therion, The Great Beast 666, The Logos Aionos, He who dwells the City of Pyramid….
Hermes: Is it trade name, corporate name, mystic pseudonym or Christian name?
Crowey: Hmm… mystic pseudonym.
I'm sorry but mystic pseudonyms don't refer to a natural person or legal entity, and I need to classify the account as one of those kind of legal personality.
Crowey: Well… Eduard Alexander Crowley .
Hermes: Ok, you want this blessing as:
A - Cash - british currency
B - Government bonds
C - Buildings
D - Commodities
Crowey: It would be better in cash.
Hermes: How much, exactly?
Crowey: Well ... I don't know, I'm not working for some time and I have to pay some debt, grant the future, you know...
Hermes: So I need your balance sheet to credit the exact valor.
Crowey: er... I never made a balance sheet...
Hermes: Mr. Crowley, Eduard Alexander, as a person you are hindering the process. Judging by the pigeon sacrificed in my invocation your assets will be filled with the market value of the animal used in this ritual, which represents your applied efforts to the work in question.
Crowey: But it is a low value Mr. Hermes, Mercury, Thoth, Hanuman, Loki e Exu.
Hermes: Well, the return is proportional to the investment and a pigeon's head is not well profitable or active application currently.
Crowey: But for all the money I want I should build a pigeon factory farm, slaughter them in mass, stand in the market, ensuring a significant commercial success, which will requires enormous effort and resources! By this way I didn't need evoke you!!
Hermes: You are starting to learn what Magick is, sr.
"ANY required change may be effected by the application of the proper kind and degree of Force in the proper manner, through the proper medium to the proper object." - Magick (1930)
