 Overview
You will use the sigil found at the end of this document, along with a brief ritual, to
connect to an energy stream that amplifies your magick.

The energy of Empowered Magick is crafted and shared every month by the seventeen
members of The Gallery of Magick.

The process you use is called The Connection Ritual. With this one ritual, which is easy
to perform, you will connect to the energy of Empowered Magick.

The energy and amplification process was something we worked towards for many,
many years. It was perfected some time ago. Now it has been refined so that it can be
shared with you in the form of Empowered Magick.

The system works with the essence of magickal effect. It is not tied to any school of
thought and is not confined to a particular style or field of magick. The energy is not
derived from any spirit but is captured by all seventeen members of The Gallery of
Magick, working in harmony to unlock the codes of existence. The power comes from
reality itself. We discovered a force that can remove resistance and increase the power
of magick.

The power also increases your general level of fortune, perception, and synchronicity.
This is true when you perform magick, and even if you perform no magick at all. When
luck is a factor in any situation, your luck will be improved; this has countless
applications. Your ability to perceive will improve each month; you will see things as
they are and as they could be. You will also notice more synchronicity in your life, with
meaningful coincidences occurring more often. Synchronicity can act as a guide. When
you look for the meaning, you see the best decisions and choices available to you.

The energy is not limited in the conventional sense. It doesn’t get used up like wood
on a fire. Nothing is consumed or taken away. This means that no matter how much
magick you perform, there will always be energy for you to tap into.

Each month, there will be a new sigil to renew your connection to Empowered Magick.
You are free to work with Empowered Magick for as long or as briefly as you wish. If
you wish to continue, reconnect each month with each new sigil.

You do not need to be a reader of our books, but we believe that people who like what
we do and who like our magick are more likely to benefit from the connection. The
system of connection has been designed for our readers, although we acknowledge
that it can be freely used with any magick.

If you know the way we work, and if you like our books (which should be the case if
you’ve joined us here), you’ll know that we don’t like to encourage people to do too
much, too fast, or to ask for extreme change. It’s important to bear this in mind when
working with Empowered Magick. We expect you’re going to see great changes, but

2
we don’t want you to think this is like an instant miracle potion. Occultism is flooded
with too many false promises, so we want you to know there are great powers
available, but we don’t want to mislead you. And that is why there’s a little more
explanation.

If you try to push a boulder uphill, you will expend great effort and achieve very little.
If you push it downhill, you can create an avalanche with almost no effort. One of the
skills you have probably already learned is that you need to determine whether you
are pushing a boulder uphill or repositioning yourself to create a simple avalanche.

When I explain this to people who are exploring magick, some become annoyed
because surely the point of magick should be to create whatever we want. If we want,
we should be able to levitate the boulder up the hill. I agree that there should be no
limits on what you genuinely want to create. But at each point in your journey, there
is almost certainly an easier way to make a significant change. If you can pinpoint
those nodal shift points, you can make great things happen, even if you never use
magick. When you do use magick, the changes will be fantastic. When you add
Empowered Magick to your efforts, the changes should be immense. But be aware that
you cannot use this magick to force a boulder uphill. Everything we have ever said
about targeting your magick wisely, seeking the smallest changes that will benefit you,
and incrementally shifting to a better place, remains true. If in doubt, please check out
the many blog posts that explore these ideas in great detail:
https://galleryofmagick.com/magick-blog-posts/

I am here to make great promises about Empowered Magick, but I am never going to
pretend that you can make a boulder float. You will not solve your most severe
problems overnight, and you will not get instant success. That’s not the promise. What
you are promised is access to an energy stream that applies to all magick.

Does this mean you can only ask for small changes? Not at all.

The whole point of magick is to obtain more than

you could ever dream of achieving without magick.

The changes you experience will be hugely significant. But I am trying to remind you
to keep the instructions from the books in mind. Each book gives you the guidance
you need to allow results to come about. When adding Empowered Magick, these
instructions should still be followed.

So, now that you are about to begin Empowered Magick, should you aim for the same
sort of results you were looking for previously, or can you aim for more? I believe you
can aim for more, but you may prefer to keep doing magick the way you always have
and observe what happens. This may give a few clues about how to expand your
magickal process.

 Questions and Answers
Here are some questions you may have about the system, with answers that should
give you enough information to get the most out of this work:

Where can I ask a question?

We hope to answer all the important questions below. The best way to get into magick
is to do magick. An inquiring mind is essential, of course, but it is important to trust
your intuition. We have seen many people stall in their magick when they get into the
habit of asking too many questions rather than trusting that magick works. As such,
we strongly encourage you to find your own answers, through contemplation,
introspection, or intuition. And you can also say: if in doubt, try it out. We want to
remain in touch, so send relevant questions to magickfaqs@gmail.com You won’t get
a reply, but we will publish an updated FAQ each month, here on Patreon.

On what day should I perform The Connection Ritual?

New rituals will be released on the first or second day of each month. You can perform
them immediately or whenever you join. The effect lasts for approximately five days
beyond the end of each month, giving you plenty of time to renew the connection in
the next month. So, if you join in December 2021, you will be connected to the magick
until around the 5th of January 2022. If you wish to continue, it’s best to perform the
next ritual before the 5th of January and so on throughout the year.

What if you are late providing the next ritual for us?
Sometimes, on Patreon, authors promise to provide benefits, and then they dry up
after a few months. Fortunately, you are tapping into our personal process, so that’s
not something we are going to give up. We have already set aside all the dates and
times we need for the next year. We will post in the first two days, every month. You’ll
always get what you are promised.

Do I need to be in a special place or at a special time of day or night?

Find somewhere you can be alone and at peace, and perform the ritual at any time of
day or night, on any day of the month.

What if I don’t perform The Connection Ritual within the first five days of the
month?
That’s fine. It only means you will be disconnected from the power for a brief time.
This will not unravel your efforts or short-circuit rituals that are already in place. The
system is extremely robust. As soon as you connect, the magick flows into you.

What happens if I make a mistake or get it wrong?

Nothing bad can happen. The entire purpose of developing Empowered Magick was
to make it so foolproof and safe that you can only benefit. All you have to do is perform
the brief ritual, as described later in this document.

4
What if I join late in the month?
If you’ve joined us late in the month, don’t worry that you’ve missed out. Magick
works through both directions in time, so any magick you perform now, before the
month is over, will be empowered from all of that month’s energy. Also, if you perform
just one ritual, on the very last day of the month, we believe you will be getting
excellent value in terms of the rewards it will bring you.

If that’s the case, should I save up the power to the end of the month so it will be
more powerful?
It doesn’t work like that, so the best thing to do is to perform The Connection Ritual
soon after you join.

Can I wait a few days after joining before I perform the ritual?
Perform The Connecting Ritual as soon as you have some time, and know that
everything you do from that moment on will be empowered by this system during the
rest of the month. There is no rush, but as you have chosen to join, you should allow
yourself to feel the benefits as soon as possible.

How long does the empowerment last?

It lasts for the whole month, and a little longer. If you join at any time in December,
whether it’s the first or the 21st, it will work for the whole of December. If you perform
your own magick at any point during that time, it will be empowered. The power also
lasts for about five days into the next month, to make sure that ongoing members have
time to renew the connection without there being any break in the power.

What if my magick has a long-term goal?

If your ritual is aimed at affecting something during the following nine months, the
empowerment will last for the entire nine months. You could, in theory, join us for a
month, perform some rituals, and then leave. That would work. All those rituals would
be empowered. You are never obliged to stay for more than a month, and you can
move on at any time. You may, however, choose to stay so that you can continue to
feel a growing connection to this energy and to empower all your future rituals. That
is how we work.

For how long will you provide us with this service?

It won’t be forever. We do not believe that anybody should become reliant on another
person or group to become proficient with magick. We are only giving a helping hand,
and we are sure that what you achieve with us will set you up for the rest of your life.

Is there a limit on how many people can join?

At present, we are not limiting numbers, as the system has been designed only for
people who like our books and who are at ease with paying the fee. As such, we do
not think there will be a huge demand. If an unusually large number of people join,
we will limit numbers as the method does involve us becoming conscious of each
participant, even if only briefly.

5
I’ve heard there are occasional bonus sigils. Is this true?
Yes, and although these are useful, they are not the main focus of this work. During
some months, we will share sigils that work to generate and amplify specific powers.
The effects will often last longer than a month, but these sigils need to be activated
during the month that they are released. Every now and then, they will make this work
a little more exciting.

What benefits can I expect?

As mentioned above, you should notice a general increase in fortune, perception, and
synchronicity. This will grow over time. The main effect, however, is that your magick
ritual will be more effective. That may mean you get a better result, a faster result, or
simply more of what you asked for.

Does this work for all magick?

The short answer is yes. If you perform magick of any kind, this energy will make it
work more effectively. But what do we define as magick? What if you make a wish or
visualise something? Is that magick? People have been defining and re-defining
magick for longer than I care to think about, and I have never found answers that feel
entirely accurate. But what we are talking about here is any form of change that is
caused by your decision to make change outside the ordinary systems of cause and
effect. In the ordinary world, if you want more money, there are many ways; you might
work harder, try to get promoted, or change your career. These are all non-magickal
ways to work, and they may bring you what you want eventually, or they may not.
Magick is about altering reality itself, with methods that range from imagery and
willpower to calling on spirits. Whatever method you use can be thought of as magick.
If you are at all in doubt, you can be certain that magick by The Gallery authors –
Damon Brand, Zanna Blaise, Gordon Winterfield, and Adam Blackthorne – will mesh
beautifully with this energy.

Can I share this energy of Empowered Magick with others?

When you perform magick of any kind, sharing energy, results, and benefits can often
be a part of the process. You can continue with that as normal. You cannot, however,
share your connection to our stream of Empowered Magick. The sigil is provided for
you to make the connection. If you share the sigil with other people, it will not work
for them. It has been designed to make the connection only with those who have joined
us. What if somebody else paid for you? That’s ok. So long as only one person uses the
sigil, it will be fine. It doesn’t matter who pays or signs up. You know you are joining
us, and it is your knowledge of this that activates the sigil.

Does it matter if anybody else sees the sigil?

Not at all. It is the ritual the makes it effective. It should not be distributed, however,
as that is a breach of copyright laws.

There’s colour in the sigil. What if I’m unable to see colour on my device?
It will still work.

6
What if I’m part of a magickal group? Can I still use this?
Yes. The change is made within you. Imagine you are part of a rowing team, and
somebody gives you a secret supplement that makes you twice as strong, but only you
are allowed to take the pills. The rowing team benefits from your new strength without
you ever having to give them the secret supplements. That’s how it is with this magick.
You can work alone, but if you work with anybody else, they don’t even need to know
that you are using this empowerment. They may notice, however, that you bring more
energy to rituals than you did before.

Do we all get a unique sigil?

Everybody gets the same sigil each month. It is your connection to the sigil, through
the ritual, that makes the magick work.

What do the symbols in the sigil mean? Is that writing of some kind?
The sigils are based on sacred geometry mixed with a hand-drawn graphic that is
originated during a trance state. There is no translation as this is not writing but a
symbol of the connection we make.

Is it ok to use this on my phone?

It will work if your screen is large enough for you to see the details in the sigil. If that’s
not possible, you can print the sigil out or use another device or screen. When
performing the ritual, you should be able to see the whole sigil at once without having
to scroll around a screen.

Can this connection drain me of energy?

This system is not designed to take anything from you or drain you in any way. As
with all magick, you may feel tired after performing the ritual, just as you may feel
tired after watching a movie or going for a walk. There may be other mild effects, but
this only means you are sensing the energy and is nothing to be worried about. If you
sense nothing at all, that is also completely fine.

Will I actually feel the energy?

Some people will notice the energy immediately. Others may sense a deep peace. You
may notice that you become more aware of light and colour. But it is also possible that
you will notice no change at all, and that is completely fine. The connection is made
by the ritual, and you will receive the benefits even if it feels like nothing has
happened. This is the case with almost all magick, so be relaxed about whatever you
experience.

Do I have to wait for a while after the ritual before using my own magick?
No. The connection is immediate. Our work does rely on a conscious awareness of
you, but as mentioned earlier, magick works through both directions in time, so your
connection will occur immediately. As soon as The Connection Ritual is complete, all
the power is available to you.

You will find the ritual on the following page.

 The Connection Ritual, December 2021

The sigil you need appears on the next page. You can look at it whenever you want, as
it is only active when you perform the ritual.

When you perform this ritual, you are making a connection to Empowered Magick;
this is the energy amplification provided by The Gallery of Magick. You do not need
to have any specific magick goals in mind. Only know that in performing this ritual,
you will be given access to our shared power.

The ritual is simple, by design. The only downside of this is that you may feel that
you’ve not done enough or that it’s not magickal enough. This is understandable, but
allow yourself to put such doubts aside. With magick like this, you only need a key,
and no complication is required. This ritual is the key. If you follow these brief
instructions just once, you are connected to us, and you will experience the benefits.
Know that, and feel free to begin.

Find a time to be alone and without disturbance for the duration of the ritual. If you
are disturbed, you are free to repeat the ritual at a later time. There is no harm in
performing it multiple times, but there is no benefit either, so only repeat if you are
unable to complete it for some reason.

This ritual is like a light switch. It takes only a moment to switch this on. Once it’s
switched on, it’s on for the whole month. To activate it, do the following:

Rest your gaze on the central white circle of the sigil. You do not need to stare, and it
is fine if you look at other parts of the sigil, but you do not need to study them. Bring
your focus back to the white circle.

Know that we are with you. Know that the white circle is more than a white circle. It
is light. It is energy. It is a connection that empowers you. Rest your gaze there for
about a minute, and then close your eyes for a few moments. The ritual is complete.
With the simplest of actions, you have connected to the greatest power we could offer
you.

When the ritual is complete, there is nothing you need to do; there is no need to banish,
perform a closing ceremony, or do anything out of the ordinary.

Perform magick if you wish, straight away, or at any time during the month. And as
the days go by, notice how your fortune increases with extra moments of luck. Notice
how your perception changes; you can see people, things, and situations more clearly.
And notice those strange moments of synchronicity, where coincidences give you a
glimpse of meaning.
