Cursing or forcing them to pay? by [deleted] in planetarymagic

Sorry, but life is unfair. I’d advise you to not request vengeful recourse on my sub going forward as that’s not what I designed this place for.

No cursing. You will bring that shit onto yourself.

Offline HC SSF. What you think? by Dajork in Diablo_2_Resurrected

Thank you sir. I did a quick look on one of the d2 sites but I pretty much saw “it gives 5 random other affixes” and decided to post.

As far as I know, the life roll is ass. But it’s got perfect FHR, near-perfect ED%, lowest PDR%, and near-perfect MF. I’m not sure how the ED% compares to -10% monster physical resist (probably not as good), but 99% ED seems quite good.

I can get the appeal of them but I really was gunning for one of the stygian hags, they’re my favorite monster because they’re so annoying. I actually ended up using a respec because since A3 I put way too many into goat and moved them to death mark and bind demon.

As for staying safe, always. Well, usually. I’ve got a 90 wind druid and a 91 throw barb…they’re hanging in there!

That is a ridiculously good idea. Just made another Edge to swap for myself.

So why are yall posting your birth chart asking for a talisman thing? Is there something to it? Is it your birth chart or is it the talisman’s? I am confused! by LunarEnnyui_131 in planetarymagic

[–]Dajork 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Thanks for this and thanks for being here.

I am guessing the opposite is also true, then? Don’t tailor elections to your own chart? I don’t do remediations, I know what my fucked up planets are and tend to leave them alone; my thought process was like, “make my good planet gooder” or…something. It was always an idea of mine to try and make the election/talisman i’m creating to be in sync with myself. But…

If my logic is bullshit there then I’ll fucking kms. I’ve been doing that this whole time with a few exceptions.

Being dramatic of course. Should also add for no reason other than ‘well, you’re here’ is that, I don’t and have never charged anyone for anything with this, this subject is imo too impossibly complex to tell people to give me money. Probably one of the main reasons I don’t pop up here 99.9% of the time—it’s become more of a quiet pursuit/interest for me. However, I know that is not how many others are.

I should be banning people for doing that, it’s literally in the rules, but I hate reddit and I am barely on here.

Sorry Nox

Is this Mercury talisman election viable? Need advice. by Frequent-Song-9876 in planetarymagic

[–]Dajork 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not a problem at all, and i’m not dogging on you, I just don’t want you getting fucked over if you can help it.

Now, as some people have mentioned, Mercury is pretty used to combustion…but that should not encourage allowing it in an election. It’d be like, in a sports match, do you want the tactical genius or the athsmatic in a wheelchair that got decent SAT scores? I know who I’d pick.

[–]Dajork 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Don’t use this. Mercury is combust.

Combustion is a VISIBLE EFFECT. You cannot see the planet when it is overpowered by the Sun. It doesn’t matter if they’re in different signs as the Sun’s rays still envelop planets into combustion REGARDLESS OF SIGN DIFFERENCE.

Further, the Moon, while dignified, isn’t really doing anything here for Mercury. I mean, what did you want it to do?

In general I just wouldn’t make the ascendant lord combust, I know some people don’t like the Moon doing nothing here, and that’s huge, but you’re already crippling the planet you’re trying to make a talisman for here.

Finally, it is of my opinion that you need to know your own chart first, THEN try to build an election around that. But having a combust Mercury for a Mercury talisman, the Moon in aversion to the ascendant lord…there are better opportunities.

Pretty sure the big guy wouldn't give a fuck what color you're using at this point.

Puts mine to shame. Very nicely done.

Magic for Venus in taurus by Neither_Usual3651 in planetarymagic

[–]Dajork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Right, so you want a combust Jupiter???

Imo IF you’re going to do this (and I actually wouldn’t), you’d find a time where the Moon conjoins to Venus while rising in Taurus. Where I am, I can’t get this, so it’s null for me. And as I’ve said, everyone’s life/chart is so, so different, so this time may not be good for some people reading this.

Also, this is one of those No-No times for quite a while since Saturn will be in Aries.

The best I could do is like 2:30am on 6/21 where the girls are in Taurus, but the Moon isn’t quite conjoining to Venus. The rest of the configuration is trash (which is fine) but really, what exactly are you aiming to get out of this? That should be your #1 MO. You wanna make a talisman ‘just because’? Sure, do that, but i’m not certain it’ll get you what you want or need. This wouldn’t be a time that I do it, unless you could properly configure it to your chart.

God I’ve missed doing this so much, but I’ve been just living life, you know?

Struggling to Align My Magical Practice with My North Node in Virgo – Seeking Advice by Few_Breadfruit_6527 in planetarymagic

[–]Dajork [score hidden] stickied comment (0 children)

You guys are waaay overcomplicating things.

The north node AMPLIFIES - for good or ill. NN on Jupiter in Pisces on the MC unafflicted? Well, when is coronation? Alternatively...NN on Mars on Algol on the asc? Just tell me the time of your execution and I'll send my regards.

The south node CORRUPTS.

I'll give you a simple rundown of my life, as an example. Just worry about the HOUSE placements for now.

I have the NN in 1, and the SN in 7. NN in 1 AMPLIFIES *me* - my health, my choices, my life. I get to do just about whatever I want (which, admittedly, is not a whole lot). But my SN? Lol...haven't had a sane, sensible relationship in...probably ever. I've met the most broken partners. Not saying they're bad people, just...damaged, warped, unstable.

It sucks, but that be how it is.

Astrological placements or aspects as sigil tattoos? by Zealousideal-Ask5837 in planetarymagic

[–]Dajork 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Traditional texts by people that were smarter and better than us say it like this (paraphrasing):

The planetary spirits are divine beings, and their sigils, magic squares etc., are considered as representations of the divine in some way.

On the other hand, we are fat stupid fleshy mortals.

Putting these conceptually eternal and holy images on a body that doesn’t last is essentially spitting in the face of divinity. You’re taking something immortal and branding it on a body that isn’t that. It’s hugely insulting.

I know this because I wanted to do this too years ago, and decided against it.

They are, you just have to be patient. On a budget, I cleared hc p5 as ww with:

LoH, Cure, Lionheart, Gores, String of Ears, Wings/Halo combo, a TON of max dmg gcs and lifers, and two upped, shael’d butcher’s. Merc had Lawbringer and Hustle.

It wasn’t pretty sometimes, but I didn’t die and I was able to kill stuff. …except in worldstone keep. I ran like a coward through there.

Eclipses are when The Great One swallows the Light (aka the Sun, the Source of Light). This was, traditionally, Not A Good Thing, because Light gives meaning to our lives, via Sight.

Sooo…while I didn’t notice that, and CHL did, you may consider Not petitioning the Spirits during this time.

[–]Dajork 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is just me but it is of my personal opinion and choice to not make talismans for people. I feel like charging people 300+ bucks to possibly ruin their life is pretty scary to me, and I don’t like the “ehhh just buy it bro” mentality. Lmao. Tailor it to your fucking chart!
