minor of less than 18 years of either sex; but accomplish the solemn act with your spouse or your lover. It is necessary in all cases, that the woman chosen for the rite should have sexual knowledge of the man, be possessed of good health in body and mind, and she should have profound feelings of affection and emotion for the priest; for in this way is the orgasm of the two magically efficacious—it also makes the moment of the female emanation coincide with the moment of the male ejaculation and only in this way is the magic effective. 3. The union of the man with the woman must be innocent. Lust for pleasure must not be the main purpose. Transcending carnal pleasure, aim at the union of the spirits, if you want your prayer to be exhausted in ecstasy. If you conform to these principles, the sexual act will become a source of spiritual and material force for you and a fountainhead of wisdom, happiness and peace. In magic, you search for that which is called the fortune of spirit. 4. The physical body must be cared for properly. Hygiene is always a sacred responsibility, but especially when you prepare yourself for the rite of sexual union. We tell you that certain preparation must be made 7 days and 41 days in advance of the operation. Cleanliness is, then, of particular importance. 5. Keep secret your magical intentions. Silence concentrates your forces and multiplies them. This is why, when you are entering into the preparation period for an act of magic, you should not frequent the society of mundane persons too often and you should talk as little as possible. 6. Formulate your desire in advance and don't forget that desire at the moment of coition, during which it is necessary to keep silence. 7. Before, during and after the act of love, hold a clear image of that which you wish. The exercises of Volantia, Posism and Decretism are a great help during the period of preparation. 8. Eat simply and prefer natural foods; don't take too much; don't drink too many liquids; avoid grease, alcohol, spices. Sleep in a hard bed, the head to the north, the pillow flat. Your bedroom should always be cold and well aired. 9. Take a bath of air, two times a week: Breath deeply and retain the air in your lungs for as long as possible. Know that every additional minute you endure will add 10 days to your life. 10. Don't look at your woman too often and look only when you are both excited. Sleep in separate bedrooms and do not unite more than one or two times a week. The man must never touch a woman who is not sensitive to his touch and he must never stop until she has trembled with desire at least two times. This is a recommendation of great importance. 11. Don't take the woman if you are angry or if you are ill. 12. Sleep well and, when you sleep, trust in yourself and the force of Divine Law.
