History

There are no discernible associations within ancient Middle-Eastern mythology with Gamigin. Like the other Fallen Angels however, he was probably a popular pagan god who was demonized and his name subsequently Latinized with the advent of Judeo-Christian based religions.

The Ars Goetia states the following about Gamigin:

“SAMIGINA, or GAMIGIN. – The Fourth Spirit is Samigina, a Great Marquis. He appeareth in the form of a little Horse or Ass, and then into Human shape doth he change himself at the request of the Master. He speaketh with a hoarse voice. He ruleth over 30 Legions of Inferiors. He teaches all Liberal Sciences, and giveth account of Dead Souls that died in sin. And his Seal is this, which is to be worn before the Magician when he is Invocator, etc. “

When to summon Gamigin

Gamigin can be called forth to assist necromancers owing to his association with the dead. Additionally, he can be summoned to teach the liberal arts which he is well versed in.

Ritual Time: This demon is strongest between 20th April and 29th April.

Items Required:

The demon’s sigil
Jasmine incense
Silver items
Juniper / Storax leaves

Precautions:

As with every other demon, it is important to show the utmost respect to this demon in order to minimize the likelihood of malevolence while increasing the chances of a desirable outcome.
It is also important that the conjuror protects themselves from otherworldly energies by mentally visualizing a protection circle and entering it.

Steps:

The invocation should be done during the day as Gamigin is a day demon. It should begin with the identification of a quiet place suitable for summoning.
The conjuror should meditate to balance their chakras and increase their concentration for the task at hand. Alternatively, one can just use breathing exercises.
The sigil of Gamigin should be prominently displayed before the conjuror before the black candle is placed in the center and lit.
The silver artifacts should be liberally sprinkled on the altar along with the juniper / storax leaves.
The offering of jasmine incense should be done while humming the demon’s enns slowly in triple repetitions.
The demon shows up within the smoke and flames to listen to the conjuror’s wishes and it is necessary to praise him before stating one’s desires.
After the demon has done the conjuror’s bidding, he should be praised before being dismissed respectfully.
The candles can then be snuffed out and the ritual ended.
