I’m curious whether people have attempted the evocation procedures in the Lesser Key of Solomon closely as written. What results did they report, and how did they decide what counted as a result?
Has anyone tried the Lesser Key rituals as written, and what counts as success?

“Success” can mean very different things here: completing the procedure, having a vivid experience, or concluding that an external presence responded. Those aren’t interchangeable, so any account is more useful when it says which one the person means and what they expected beforehand.

I’d be cautious about treating a striking experience as proof of a supernatural cause. If you’re comparing accounts, note which edition or version of the instructions was used, what was changed, and whether the outcome could be described without assuming the answer in advance.

There’s no account here to confirm that anyone performed the exact procedure or what happened afterward. For anyone considering it, I’d keep the aim to reflection or study, avoid risky physical practices, and be willing to stop if the experience becomes distressing.
