The event was an art expo, riched with performance and multimedia.
The term "grimoire" comes from Europe on Middle Age. From french (alteration for grammaire), is about a book with magic wisdom, and it can contain enchants, recipes for beberages, methods and words of power and protection. The pieces of this expo where inspired from veracruzan imaginarium (Mexico) and simbology from very different cultures. Still there's the influence on the believe tahta one can sway trough distance according to ritualisms. But, Is this true? Can we make "happen" something, just by following some directions? The question here, is the ludic act of being part of something that make us beleive is worth somenthing. It's a matter of faith.

I'ts also a fact that we live surrounded by simbols, entities, answers and portals intangibles for the "shortened of vision", but still present for the ones who want to see.
The 9 pages that I recopilated fromt his hidden book, talk about general fromulas for certain problems with their respective "prayers". The original book does not exist anymore, but it still remains in my memory and I traslated it for you. Most of the instructions where revealed in dreams, signs and visions.
Para la creatividad
"Se debe escoger una puerta de la casa, preferentemente de un armario como pasaje; usar calcetines impares una semana. El séptimo día a las 6 de la tarde, dibujar los símbolos sagrados en frente y mejilla, bautizar los instrumentos de trabajo con unas gotas de café, orar y cerrar tras la puerta. Usarse hasta el día siguiente".
I wanted to make an "enchantment" proper for artists and creators. the rabbit means multiplicity, fertility, spontaineity. The third eye with divinity, vidence, ilumination. On the other side, a rabbit with three eyes can be interpretated like an abomination, a chimera, an "original" entity. With this ritual a passage is made for ideas, forcing the body and the mind to focus on work. It's also a gratitude to the universality of the mind for creation, to the tools of work. It works also against tired mind.
Para viajar a otra dimensión
"Cortar una llave de cartón con los símbolos sagrados. Colocarse bajo la almohada 3 noches. al divisar el portal en sueños, saltar y gritar".

Para invocar al nahual
"La salmodia reza: para invocar al nahual, una ceiba 3 veces debes rodear. Reza hasta que tus pasos no dejen señal."
Para exorcismos
"Seleccionar una casa abandonada. Trazar en un cuarto un laberinto con sal de mesa. Atravesar el laberinto con el objeto/persona poseído hasta el final. Rezar 3 veces la salmodia de las 5 de la tarde. Borrar el laberinto después del proceso".
Para recuperar la sombra perdida (después de un susto):
