Bonding With a Master Spirit
Posted: Tue Dec 12, 2023 3:49 pm
So, I've had my first master spirit's vessel for about three days now. I will use this thread to document my first thirty days with her, but before I get into the details, a little bit of background:
As of right now, I have exactly 50 spirits and living entities in my keep. The vast majority of them are spirits; of those, most are protective types; and of those, most are doggies.
Yes, I said "doggies". No, I am not going to apologize for being cute. They're doggies.
One reason I have so many protective spirits is that one of my neighbors is a much more advanced witch who works with a coven. She has taken an extreme dislike to me and regularly sends negative spells, energies, & entities my way. She is awful, and I still have yet to figure out why she hates me so frickin' much. Anyway...
Toward the beginning of this year, I had CH do an "unbounds around me" reading. They bound a female Nephilim for me, but the reading also picked up a gorgon and a hellcat. I was very intrigued at the idea of the gorgon. I've repeatedly had dreams about gorgons for years - there is a warrior gorgon character that I've always been oddly drawn to, in a webcomic called Sluggy Freelance. I've even had some of my spirits tease me that the gorgon is definitely "meant for me". I was never sure what that meant.
Over the months, I had the feeling that she was still hanging around. But I made no effort to reach out to her, as I had too much else going on at the time.
I decided this past November that it was finally time to add my first master spirit to my keep. The Thanksgiving-week deals were such that I could actually afford one. I came this close to ordering the gorgon instead - it definitely felt like a calling. But I figured that I needed a master spirit more, and without the November discounts I wouldn't be able to afford one until probably July. So, I made the order, as well as getting a small collection of Djinn who will hopefully also be helpful.
Imagine my surprise and delight when the order notes came through, and my new master spirit was... dun-dun-dun... a gorgon! I am quite certain that she is the same one. Her energy even feels familiar.
Because CH has awesome shipping, her vessel arrived within a few days. It is exactly what I wanted it to be - understated. It's far from being my most eye-catching piece, although it is very nice. It is businesslike, which matches her energy perfectly. Functional rather than ornamental.
For the past few days, I have been meditating with J every morning. On the first day, I had Bing Image Generator have a go at trying to create an image of her - the results were laughably bad. She is ferocious, not a pin-up girl! Oh well. At least it got her scale color more-or-less right.
I have been trying to give her time to get settled in, but this morning I think she'd finally had enough of it, because I got the strong impression that she wanted me to finally let her get to work! She knows I have been working on a list of tasks for the keep. But the list isn't finished yet, so for today, I just had her make sure that everyone is up-to-date on the House Rules. They're pretty much the same as Ash's, only with a few additions for my sexual spirits.
So far, I am very thrilled with my experiences with her, but I am also curious as to how one works with a master spirit. It's all new to me! Later today I will read through the forums and try to find out more.
