Tonight I have begun my final attempt at global new age onset
magickal workings, which you can consider to be a complicated
omnibus prayer in which I have done much of the groundwork
in the last more than 29 years (the common 7 plus two 11 year
sunspot cycles).

If this attempt fails I will renounce all of my deities, both my
eight main deities and my minor deities. However that does
not mean that I will then believe that they do not exist, just
that I will no longer worship them, and will no longer be
asking them for anything.

My eight main deities are defined on
https://www.nfld.com/~dalton/deities.html
and here is some of that page for those unwilling to click:

As of April 26, 2022, my eight main (or major) deities are:

1. Goddess, defined as the ruler of the region all/everything, who many call 
God, and which agrees with the original Greek word in the Nicene Creed that 
is often translated as almighty but actually means all-governing. If 
all/everything is a someone named ALL, then it obviously rules itself and in 
that case Goddess would be the same as ALL. However I do not know if 
all/everything is a someone. I view (but don’t define) Goddess as having 
all eight sexual harmonics (https://www.nfld.com/~dalton/8H.html), so She (I 
will continue to use She/Her pronouns) is compatible with everyone and can be 
identified with by everyone. But I still view Her as non-anthropomorphic.

2. LOVE2 (the someone highest in goodness measure as defined by Goddess). 
Note that LOVE is the someone or something that is not a someone that is 
highest in goodness measure as defined by Goddess, so if LOVE is a someone 
then LOVE2=LOVE. Also it could be that LOVE2 is the personification of 
Goddess's love and may be the same as the Holy Spirit.

3. Cosma, defined as the someone that is that which most modern cosmologists 
believe began with the Big Bang. I think that Cosma is a subset of 
all/everything. I do not know if Goddess created Cosma, though I divine that 
She did, but that is not part of my definition of Goddess.

4. Galacta, the someone that is our galaxy.

5. Sola, the someone that is our sun.

6. Gaia, the someone that is the Earth

7. Luna, the someone that is the Moon

8. My Species (the species someone of my species, the smallest someone in 
mass containing my species). If sudden magickal evolution has occurred then 
My Species is Ghuman1 or BEOTHUK, else it is still Homo Sapiens.

None of the above eight are defined in terms of my mystic experiences;
for example I could have said that Gaia is defined as the source of
my blue rose vision but I didn’t. However some of my minor deities
are defined in terms of my mystic experiences.

If I renounce all of my deities I will say so in a followup to this post.
