To Profile Possession

For the purpose of exorcism or the blessing of a home or land to rid it of unclean spirits, it is important to know exactly what you are dealing with before hand, where it came from, and how it came to be in the geographical perception of where it is now. To do that, you would start with the who? Below, I have outlined some different types of summoner or spiritualist in correlation to how or what they would summon. The first being, Primo-scriptural.    Primo-scriptural : primo-scriptural is a compounding of the words “primordial” and “scriptural.” This type of summoner would be someone with a basic education and an inherent ability to be charismatic. Their education of the spiritual would be most likely limited to Bible scripture therefore, the demons they would summon or spirits they would call upon would be the ones they were familiar with from the Bible. They’re methods would be the same as those from the Bible as well. A crude alter and, or a perversion of rites in...

Enoch

And Enoch lived sixty and five years, and begat Methuselah:  And Enoch walked with God after he begat Methuselah three hundred years, and begat sons and daughters:  And all the days of Enoch were three hundred sixty and five years:  And Enoch walked with God: and he was not; for God took him.

The Intimate Death

In Lloyd Chandler's folk song “conversations with death" later made popular by various artists and most popular by blue grass recording artist Ralph Stanley, death is once again given depiction entitatively as a spiritual being born of Appalachian bible belt southern folklore.  “ I’ll fix your feet till you can’t walk” says death to its unfortunate victim in the song. I’ve heard it said of the old timers how people talked about their legs going cold giving them indication that they were were dying. This feeling of icy cold associated with the touch of a spirit whose one purpose in existence is to rend spirit from flesh, knowing no barter other than the coin passed or prayer spoken for mercy in itself becomes the spirit if mercy in distant whispers that quiet pain with cold numbness. This spirit calls the soul away locking bone and muscle in place like a door forced closed till there is nowhere to go but out. These days, however, outside of sudden tragedy, we die differently, f...
