Hey /x/, I have a question. How come so many demon summoning rituals call for people to perform them at specific times of the day/night? Whenever I hear "and you must perform this at 3:00 AM, no sooner no later! Or else the ritual will not work," I instantly lose immersion.
Whether or not you believe in these rituals, you have to agree that it removes the suspension of disbelief. Why the hell would a demon care about what time is it? Do they pay attention to time zones? And if you're really reciting some kind of ancient ritual that was spawned before the dark ages, why is there a specific time tacked onto the ritual when the people that allegedly came up with it didn't even have clocks?
I understand doing something during a certain phase of the moon or when the sun is in a specific position, but saying "... And the demon will only come out at midnight" just sounds made up and cliche.
What're you're thoughts?
If you do not understand the basics of timing in evocation you should probably not be summoning.

It's all arbitrary. All of it.

I'm not summoning anything and don't plan to, but even from a story telling standpoint giving a specific time makes a ritual seem bogus.
But if you'd care to enlighten me on the purpose of including a specific time when performing a ritual, I'd like to hear it. I don't know anything about summoning or rituals.

>skeptic is trying to summon and find out nothing will happen
>I know I'll tell him not to do it
>>17528720
So do you believe there's any way to bring things from the beyond into the mortal world? Or do you believe that it's all just made up?
I think on 3:00 AM is when ur body and ur mind, are on her lowest rate of vibrations

No.

Me and my family didn't believe in most of the paranormal aside from ayy's until we lived in a farm house back when I was a kid that was definitely haunted.
Our house was built directly over where the old house was buried, there was also 3 separate graveyards on the farm. So much shit happened, electronics breaking / interference, doors opening and closing, sightings, so many weird stories I don't feel like typing out.. Like fucking books all restitched upside down perfectly one night. Weird inexplicable shit like shit that.
Anyways, point is.. Deep down you're not going to believe in this shit until you actually experience it.. I'm not talking about hearing a whisper or thinking you saw something our of the corner of your eye, i'm saying seeing something with your own eyes that will make you stand there while it pierces your soul and you just literally want to cry and rethink everything you know. Just don't do anything ignorant.

But why would a powerful demon come to someone faggots basement. And what would you do after you summoned it? It would probably laugh at your autism and give your family the plague.

I've read demons are at their strongest (best for summoning) during night, and 3:00 is like their peak so to speak?

>lazily links a wiki link instead of having a valid arguement
>mentions the word autism at all in any sentence
pay no attention to this faggot. believe what you feel is true.
>>17528702
Because the Drew Carey Show is at 9.

Did you even read the wiki? Here, click on the picture next to the words you are reading, faggot.
I heard it was because Jesus either died or came back to life at 3:00 p.m. and is therefore the most holy hour. Therefore, it's exact opposite hour at 3:00 a.m. is the least holy: the witching hour.

What the clock is measuring is actually the position of the Earth in relation to the sun. At noon, your position on the Earth is facing directly toward the sun, directly opposed at midnight.
Thus, I would imagine needing an exact time for a ritual indicates you (as in the position on Earth you are at) needs to be facing a certain sector of the universe in order to work. Perhaps this is to face toward something, or face away, or simply just where the sun is in relation to you.

If the first part is true (you need to be facing a certain sector of the universe), then what time to perform a ritual would also depend on what day of the year it is, as the Earth moves along its orbit.

I agree with you and it bugs me too, but apparently this is too much logic for some on /x/ to handle, or they'll come up with some excuse for how/why it works that way.
