I have seen many people asking about summoning or "conjuring" other beings to do their bidding or ask them questions. Now, I do not wish to condemn you for anything - you have done nothing wrong or, I hope, had no ill intent. However, I need to pass on a warning, as many others might have before, that summoning, in many cases, offends the being.

What do I mean by that? Well, think of it this way - summoning takes a being from it's respective position to your respective possition without giving it a choice in the matter. Now, imagine if you were sleeping at 3 AM and your mother, or any other lovely relative asks you to get up and take out the garbage. I hardly believe you would be happy. Do you think the being you summon will be happy?

Of course, you might say "So what?". Well, it so happens that beings also have feelings. If you leave one with unhappy thoughts about you you might fall into bad situations. A being's abilities may vary. It might begin to torment your thoughts, or steal your energy, or, if it is considerably powerful, it can even try to harm you in a physical way.

So, the bottom line is, please, for your sake, do not summon. Or if you do pay a thousand respects and apologies to that being for what you have done. It would be far better to use another method, such as channeling or praying. They have both been tested and used by other people so they work. Again, this is not telling you what to do, but simply and advice for your safety.

May the Light of God guide you.
