The magical powers associated with Mercury are Miracles of Healing, the Gift of Tongues, and the Knowledge of Sciences, so it can be used for both healing and accelerated learning, especially in the areas of language and technology. Please review the other spells I have already posted for information about the temple openings and other aspects of the general Golden Dawn magical forms. The new ritual form you will be using for this spell is the Greater Invoking Ritual of the Hexagram for Mercury. The hexagram is traced clockwise from the lower left point in yellow as you vibrate ARARITA, and the symbol of Mercury is traced in the center of the figure in purple as you vibrate the appropriate name of God, Elohim Tzabaoth.
00. PREPARING THE TEMPLE
If you wish to heal yourself or increase your own learning ability you do not need a containment structure so the circle alone will suffice. It should be orange, and you can also trace an eight-pointed star within it in yellow. If you are attempting to heal another person use a containment structure because it will amplify the effect. You can either place a magical link like a photograph in the containment structure or build one large enough for a person to sit within.
I. OPENING AND II. THE PRELIMINARY INVOCATION
These are the same as in my other rituals.
III. THE CONJURATION
Perform the Greater Invoking Ritual of the Hexagram for Mercury. As you conclude with "Let the divine light descend!", visualize a column of yello light descending into the circle and enveloping you. You then begin to conjure the Spirit of Mercury. Vibrate the capitalized words. Eight is the number of Mercury, so the names are vibrated eight times.
ELOHIM TZABAOTH, ELOHIM TZABAOTH, ELOHIM TZABAOTH, ELOHIM TZABAOTH, ELOHIM TZABAOTH, ELOHIM TZABAOTH, ELOHIM TZABAOTH, ELOHIM TZABAOTH (el-oh-HEEM tzah-bah-OTH). COME UNTO ME, GOD IN HOD (HOHD), THE SPHERE OF KOKAB (koh-KAHB). SEND UNTO ME MICHAEL (mee-kai-EL), THAT GREAT ARCHANGEL OF THINE, THAT HE MAY ANSWER MY BEHEST.
Pause until the presence of Elohim Tzabaoth is perceived. If you don't feel anything or see anything, wait three minutes or so before continuing.
MICHAEL, MICHAEL, MICHAEL, MICHAEL, MICHAEL, MICHAEL, MICHAEL, MICHAEL (mee-kai-EL). COME UNTO ME, GREAT AND MIGHTY ARCHANGEL OF HOD (HOHD), THE SPHERE OF KOKAB (koh-KAHB), BY THE NAME OF THE GREAT GOD ELOHIM TZABAOTH (el-oh-HEEM tzah-bah-OTH). SEND UNTO ME TIRIEL (teer-ee-EL), THAT GREAT INTELLIGENCE OF THINE, THAT HE MAY ANSWER MY BEHEST.
Pause until the presence of Michael is perceived. If you don't feel anything or see anything, wait three minutes or so before continuing.
TIRIEL, TIRIEL, TIRIEL, TIRIEL, TIRIEL, TIRIEL, TIRIEL, TIRIEL (teer-ee-EL). COME UNTO ME, THOU BRIGHT INTELLIGENCE OF KOKAB (koh-KAHB), AND ANSWER MY BEHEST. IN THE NAME OF MICHAEL (mee-kai-EL) THY LORD, COMPEL THE SPIRIT TAPHTHARTHARATH (taf-thar-thar-AHTH) WHO IS UNDER THY DOMINION TO MANIFEST WITHIN THIS CIRCLE OF ART (or "WITHIN THIS TRIANGLE OF ART" if you are using a containment structure).
Pause until the presence of Tiriel is perceived. If you don't feel anything or see anything, wait three minutes or so before continuing.
TAPHTHARTHARATH, TAPHTHARTHARATH, TAPHTHARTHARATH, TAPHTHARTHARATH, TAPHTHARTHARATH, TAPHTHARTHARATH, TAPHTHARTHARATH, TAPHTHARTHARATH (taf-thar-thar-AHTH). COME UNTO ME, MIGHTY SPIRIT OF KOKAB (koh-KAHB), AND MAKE MANIFEST MY BEHEST. IN THE NAME OF TIRIEL (teer-ee-EL) THY LORD, COME FORTH WITHIN THIS CIRCLE OF ART (or "WITHIN THIS TRIANGLE OF ART" if you are using a containment structure) THAT THOU MAYST WIELD THE POWERS OF THE PATH OF BETH (like it looks), THE PATH OF THE PLANET MERCURY.
Pause until the presence of Taphthartharath is perceived. If you don't feel anything or see anything, wait three minutes or so before continuing.
At this point you deliver the charge to the spirit. Address it to Taphthartharath. This is what you want the spirit to do. You need to write this part yourself, because it's very personal. You should state what you want simply so that the spirit can't twist your words around. Bear in mind that this is not because the spirit is deceptive like some authors contend, but because magick is more like operating a machine than it is like conversing with a fully sentient individual. The intelligence and spirit are literal-minded and the magick will always follow the path of least resistance that matches the letter of the charge.
After the charge, pause for a moment before closing the temple.
IV. CLOSING
The License to Depart should be revised as follows.
O THOU ELOHIM TZABAOTH (el-oh-HEEM tzah-bah-OTH) AND THY MINISTERS MICHAEL (mee-kai-EL), TIRIEL (teer-ee-EL), and TAPHTHARTHARATH (taf-thar-thar-AHTH), BECAUSE THOU HAST DILIGENTLY ANSWERED UNTO MY DEMANDS, AND HAST BEEN VERY READY AND WILLING TO COME AT MY CALL, I DO HERE LICENSE THEE TO DEPART UNTO THY PROPER PLACE; WITHOUT CAUSING HARM OR DANGER UNTO MAN OR BEAST. I CHARGE THEE TO WITHDRAW PEACEABLY AND QUIETLY, AND PEACE BE EVER CONTINUED BETWEEN US. SO MOTE IT BE!
Pause for a moment to give the spirits time to depart. Visualize the yellow light being absorbed into yourself.
The rest of the Closing is the same. You're done.
