ENN: Ana Secore on ca Purson

From the Goetia:

“His appearing is comely, like a Man with a Lion’s face, carrying a cruel Viper in his hand, and riding upon a Bear. Going before him are many Trumpets sounding. He knoweth all things hidden, and can discover Treasure, and tell all things Past, Present, and to Come. He can take a Body either Human or Aërial, and answereth truly of all Earthly things both Secret and Divine, and of the Creation of the World. He bringeth forth good Familiars”

Very interesting spirit. If you want to actually sit down and have a chat with Purson about the spirits themselves and the creation then Purson is a good one.

Connolly says work with during scrying or channeling sessions when you have questions about the divine intelligences or are seeking to better understand their nature. Also consults before any scientific experiment, so that answers can be found. A Daemon of nature sciences.

The Goetia Ritual mentions the form of Purson, as mentioned in the Goetia, expresses marriage of Sun, the lion and Moon, the bear. The Viper expresses the primal force of the death and rebirth process, which makes a Purson a very good spirit for initiation and rites of passage. With mention of “knows all things hidden”, they actually say that it’s talking about people not presenting themselves as they really are. We all put on masks and we present ourselves to people in certain ways and create impressions and things like that, and quite often that’s not really who we are. I’ve always considered it considered it to be specifically relating to hidden knowledge or hidden treasures or things like that. Therefore, things which are hidden from plain sight but.

Jehannum says, teaches the witch to deceive, teaches to become powerful in which craft as well as divination. Teaches the witch to destroy people from the inside out and crush their social networks. Teaches witch to create great art.  Skilled in theft and escape. Helped discover treasures in business and to communicate with the shades of the dead. Lastly, brings about attainment of knowledge by imparting insight and inspiration.
