ChatGPT, summon the demons for me.
I've posted a fun video on using ChatGPT for spirit contact and divination to my Patreon. I'll eventually post a video on this subject to my YouTube channel but it may not be this one, I'm not sure yet. There's a lot more experiments to do with AI to really understand its potential for spirit work. I've also included some logs of the experiments if anyone wants to read the chats directly and try the prompts on ChatGPT themselves. It's at the $10 tier which is where I post my magical work materials and extra videos.

Administrative post: sorry for the lag on new posts here. A lot happened in the past year and it's been a difficult environment to create in. This project is still going and I'll resume posting these entries after a few other priorities have been taken care of. Thanks for your support and your patience!

The 3rd spirit is Pruflas
A flaming fire; a man with the head of a night raven.
[Pruflas has no seal.]
Name: Pruflas
Common aliases: Busas
Sign and placement: 10-20 ARIES (day)
Direction: Not stated
Rank: Prince/Duke
Metal and planet: Tin/Copper, Jupiter/Venus
Legions: 26
Pruflas, found elsewhere as Busas, is a great Prince and Duke, whose dwelling is around the Tower of Babylon, and he appears outside as a flame, but his head is likened to a great night raven. He is the author and promoter of discord, war, quarrels, and lies. All in the room may not be admitted. He responds to all questions fully. He hath under him twenty-six legions, partly of the Order of Thrones, partly of Angels. - Weir (Campbell's translation from the Latin)
Notes:
In some manuscripts the third demon is Vassago instead.
May appear as a mighty flame instead of an outdoor flame--the original Latin used "foris" instead of "fortis."
The location of the Tower of Babylon would be vaguely in present-day Iraq.

The 3rd spirit is Vassago
A good-natured old man with angel wings.
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Name: Vassago
Common aliases: Usagoo
Sign and placement: 20-30 ARIES (day)
Direction: Unstated
Rank: Prince
Metal and planet: Tin, Jupiter
Legions: 26 (20)
The third spirit is Vassago, a Prince. He is good-natured, like Agares. His office is to declare all things past, present, and future, as well as to find things that have been hidden or lost. He presides over twenty-six legions of spirits. - Campbell's Of the Arte Goetia
The Third spirit is a mighty prince, being of ye same nature as Agares, he is called Vassago, This spirit is of a good nature, & his office is to declare things past and to come, and to discover all things hidden or lost &c: he governeth 26 Legions of spirits. - Goetia
Usagoo, magnus petis [likely magnus princeps], he appeareth like an angel, and is just and true in all his doings, he giveth the love of women and telleth of hid treasures and hath under him 20 legions. - The Offices of Spirits
Notes:
There will be an additional "3rd" spirit after this as Vassago does not appear in Weir's Pseudomonarchia Daemonum. There is an entry for "Usagoo" in The Offices of Spirits which is comparable but lists an alternate number of legions.
The 'V' in Vassago may thus be pronounced like 'W,' in the Latin style, as the Latin V was basically an easily-carveable form of 'U.' (A similar pronunciation relationship exists between the English 'J' and the Latin 'I.') You would end up with "ooahsahgoh."
"Of a good nature" means friendly in interactions, it's not a reference to spiritual alignment.
