Magickal Cashbook by Damon Brand
Frequently Asked Questions
This page is for questions relating to Magickal Cashbook.
Q: Might this magick cause an accident to bring me money?
A: No. If magick worked liked that we’d be very miserable people. It’s completely safe. For more details on this old superstition please see: Magickal Safety FAQ
Q: Who is the spirit Nitika?
A: Nitika is thought of as a Genius Spirit or ‘personified virtue’. Nitika is a very gentle yet powerful spirit, and is listed as one of The Genii of the Twelve Hours in the Nuctemeron, attributed to Apollonius of Tyana from the First Century AD. Nitika was made known to European readers through a French translation by Eliphas Levi in his 1897 book Transcendental Magic, which was eventually translated to English by A.E. Waite. The magic of Nitika has been around for a long time, but remains relevant and workable today. We believe that Genius Spirits are an embodiment or expression of angelic power; they personify the virtues of angels in the form of unique spirits, and these spirits have specific natures. Nitika is a distinct spirit who channels the power of angels to assist with the chance attraction of financial fortune. For more details on genius spirits please see: The Genius of Magick.
Q: Instead of paint, can I use colored card? Can I use lined paper in the Cashbook? Can I use crayons or pencils? Which is the best product to use? Is a spiral-bound book ok? Can I glue sigils to the cover?
A: Yes to all of these, and so long as the colors are approximately correct, it doesn’t matter what you use. Most importantly, you may need to read this article, to ensure you’re not overthinking things.
Q: What color should the spine of the Cashbook be?
A: It doesn’t matter, but you can avoid black as a tiny number of people found this affect results slightly. If it is black then simply paint it or tape over the spine if it concerns you. If it doesn’t bother you, it can be left black without any ill effects.
Q: If I print the sigils on white paper, do I need to color them as well? What size should they be? What color ink should I use?
A: No. The system is extremely robust and works easily. So long as you can see them, any size is fine. Any ink is fine. Again, please see this article to avoid overthinking or worrying about the details.
Q: Can I print the sigil out so that it’s stretched out to fit my book more easily?
A: Circles are important and the sigil works best when it is the right shape, with no alteration or elongation. A smaller printout would be a better solution.
Q: I made a mistake/spilt some paint, when making the Cashbook. Should I start again?
A: If you can still see all the text and the sigil, don’t worry about minor mistakes. It’s not a sacred item, but a tool. So long as you can perceive the sigil and the text, it will work. If you start again, there’s no harm done. A casual confidence is vital, and is far more important the precision.
Q: When I’ve finished with a Cashbook, how do I dispose of it?
A: Stop thinking of it as a magickal item. When it no longer feels magickal to you, it is safe to trash it as your would any other notebook – this might take a second, or a few days. If it never feels unmagickal to you, you can wrap it in black cloth, put it in a box, or something similar, and leave it for a few months where it won’t disturbed. When you come back to it, the book should feel quite ordinary and can be disposed of in the trash.
Q: I just received $2400, but I used magick to get $2300. Is this coincidence or a magickal result?
A: Magickal results are usually close to the amount you ask for, so yes, this is a magickal result.
Q: I just received the exact amount I asked for, but as an increase to my credit card limit? Is this magick?
A: It could be, but you may need to ask Nitika to ensure the debt can be paid. If you are the sort of person who is able to pay off your credit card, every month, you can welcome this. If not, and if your credit card accrues debt, then you should follow up this result by asking Nitika for money to enable your credit card to be paid off in full. That way, you can use the ‘money’ that’s been made available. This quirky twist seems to happen when it’s the easiest way to get ‘money’ in your hands, but most people find it only happens once. Treat it as a sign that you’ve made contact with Nitika and keep working.
Q: But couldn’t it just be coincidence? Wouldn’t I have got the money anyway?
A: Magick usually works by shifting coincidences in your favor. If you dismiss coincidence then you are dismissing your magick. Enjoy your results and you’ll get more. Also note that often (but not always) results come after three days, three weeks or three months. Keep good records and you may see this pattern in your results.
Q: I seemed to get a magickal result, but it wasn’t the exact amount I asked for. Should I wait, or start a new ritual?
A: If the result felt magickal, consider it complete and start a new ritual.
Q: I tried to get $10,000, but nothing happened.
A: When starting out, aim for an unexpected amount that would surprise you if it turned up out of the blue, but don’t aim for something impossible. The amount you aim for might be $20 or $10,000 depending on your current earnings. If you’re poor, $10,000 won’t turn up first time. Start small and learn to trust the magick. I get emails from people who have built up slowly, and they are now attracting large amounts. I also get emails from poor people who tried to win $10,000 in the first week, and that will never work. Always push the magick just a little beyond your current possibilities, but don’t aim for something that’s too far from your current life. Many small improvements are better than one big win.
Q: You seem to ignore astrology. Should I time my workings to fit more closely with planetary influences?
A: If it matters to you or worries you, then go ahead, but I know that astrology turns off a lot of beginners, and I’ve tried to streamline the system so that it’s connected to the right astrological currents without needing exact timing. Keep it simple when you can.
Q: Somebody said you were using the wrong sigil on the cashbook.
A: Everything in the book is correct. In an early version one sigil was mislabeled, for a few days, and that is all. The sigil has always been correct.
Q: If Nitika is a good-natured spirit, why has your sigil been constructed to constrain?
A: Beginners will use this book without the usual magickal safety-nets (such as banishings), and Nitika has free will. The sigil has been constructed to keep things safe, and to guide and encourage Nitika.
Q: Is Nitika male or female?
A: It depends who you ask. You may get a sense of this as you go. Personally, in years of contacting this spirit, I have sensed no gender.
Q: The book says to ask for dollars, but I am in in another country. What should I do?
A: Simply write in your own currency.
Q: I can’t find or understand the meaning of NAH-KAH.
We use the Hebrew word NawKar, which can be pronounced NAH-KAH. (For those with an interest in Hebrew, this is spelt Nun Kaph Resh.) This word usually means ‘recognized’, but when stated in the active form it can mean ‘to recognize’. So you are saying that you ‘will recognise’ God. Google the phrase “Strong’s Hebrew H5234” for more details.
Q: Is it ever worth doing the Cashbook ritual for more than 11 days?
A: There are a few reports of this working. In general, I believe it is better to do magick for a short period of time, let go and move on. If you do a lot of magick you let go of the results more readily, and the results are more likely to manifest. Some people, however, report success when they consistently make the request day after day until it manifests. Feel free to try this, but at this stage, consider it to be experimental. Also, ensure that this approach doesn’t lead to frustration or disillusionment – only try this if you have a calm confidence, and a detachment from the need for a result.
Q: Do I create a new circle on a new page each day, or a new circle on the same page?
A: Please re-read the chapter called Using Your Cashbook to Attract money, and follow the steps exactly as set out. You create a new circle each day on the same page until the ritual is complete.
Q: I’ve been doing the ritual for a few days and no results yet. What’s going on?
A: The more patient you are, the faster results come. When you can genuinely wait a year, you get results in hours. If you want results in hours, you might have to wait a year. Never write off a ritual as failed, because you never know when it will bring you a result. When you complete a ritual, move on to something else, and avoid lusting for the result. I often talk about the magick working instantly or in days because often, that’s exactly how it is. But it’s important not to get trapped into expecting instant results.
Q: I tried for some time and got no results? It works for others, so what’s going on?
A: There are many posts on here that can help. The most important one is: The Secrets of Money Magick.

If you have read them already, it may be worth considering your level of frustration. If there’s any sense of frustration, it’s worth giving up to an extent. This doesn’t mean abandoning the magick altogether, but truly letting go in the sense that you no longer care about the result and no longer try to get one. When there’s zero frustration, the doors to magick open. If the only way to get to zero frustration is to stop, then stop. And then look back in a few months and see if something did turn up when you least expected it. But try to avoid thinking of it as failed. When you declare that magick has failed, you can seal that failure. Leave the way open for a result. Think of it as a work in progress that you’re leaving alone. I understand that you buy a book like this to make money, fast – which happens for many people – so it’s frustrating if it doesn’t work, but you will see lots of stories here and on the website where people found that something made the magick click for them. For many, it works instantly without effort. For others, the first result is the hardest, but once it comes, everything flows.
Q: I noticed that the cover of Magickal Cashbook was changed in early Feb 2016. Are the contents the same as before?
A: Not entirely, but you don’t need to buy the new version as the changes are very minor. If Amazon consider the changes major they update the e-book for everybody, but they haven’t done that in this case, because mostly it’s just a slight re-ordering of information. A few words have been changed, to reflect current practice, but it is nothing that requires you to purchase the book again. What you have will work. The latest version of the sigil, which has become more effective over time, can be found here.

Hello,
My question is, what to do when Nitika stops working for you?
I have worked with spirit Nitika, with a modified version of the ritual written in Magical Cashbook, and it worked great.
I admit the spell that you’ve written, in it’s original form, also brought success but through hard pain for others. I would receive money, but out of reluctance and later the person would resentment me for giving it to me.
So I modified the ritual, and that worked much better. However, after about 2 months, either the spell stopped working or Nitika stopped working for me. I am new to NAP, your style of working with these angels, but not at all new to Magic itself. And I noticed I’ve never had such experiences in decades where magic just stops working. I’ve been doing your original, and my modified version, for the 10 days and my business has not earned money in 7 days. My modified version only seeks that my business income is boosted. Your original version brought money from people, but strangely did not have any affect on my business income.
If there is not a spell to get Nitika working for me again, how do I get Nitika, and all of its essence, out of my life with LIGHTNING speed? Your book speaks of the greatness coming from these angels, however, not about when these angels go rogue and do as they please. Because when they do this, they create blockages and obstacles in those objectives which can have very dire affects left unattended.
Thanks
It’s just about impossible to comment on the effects you’re seeing because you’ve made up your own version, so I don’t know what might be happening. But the Cashbook ritual is not for business so much as money out of the blue. In fact, the book says that you shouldn’t seek the money from a specific place. To do so limits the effect. That could be the problem.
Here’s a quote from the book: “The universe, or the spirits, can probably think of a thousand better ways to get money to you, so let it come in whatever form it wants. Be open to new avenues of income, and the income will flow.”
Magickal Riches is the book that is aimed at building business sales etc,. You could use that, or use the Cashbook as set out in the book – name a reasonable amount and let it manifest how and when it wants, without demanding it come from your business.
But if you want Nitika out of your life, that’s all you need to do – desire the magick to stop. Nitika does not ‘go rogue’ – although this personified virtue has a degree of free will, it is constrained by virtue and does not harm. But if you’ve had enough, get rid of your Cashbook, pay no further heed to it and the magick will have no effect. No need for any ceremony or spell; just stop doing it and forget about it.

Hello,
I’ve been reading the FAQ and haven’t found an exact answer to my question. In the book it says that after we are done with it to expose of the cashbook. If we want to use it again it says we are to start a fresh page. A few questions, if we start a new page, should we tear out the old one after crossing out the amount? Also, do we have to empower it again, trace over the Nitika sigil, rewrite the 1st page with the circle on it or anything else?
If you’ve answered these questions I apologize.
Thank you for all your books 🙂 I’ve gotten quite a few of them and they are helping me a lot and also changing my perspective on how I see life.
Thanks. Glad you’re enjoying the books.
No need to tear anything out when starting a new page. And then you keep going, without having to empower the cashbook again.
When it’s full (which should hopefully take some time), you dispose of it, and then create a new cashbook – which will include the full empowerment as described.
Damon,
Thank you for your quick response. More than half the money has come to me already, so I’m grateful and as I said earlier, really enjoying all the books I have gotten so far.
Hi Damon is it acceptable if I prepare casebook on behalf of my loved ones?will it work?
Yes. The approach is covered to some extent here: https://galleryofmagick.com/2015/08/07/doing-magick-for-others/
