Making a Pact With Satan

There were many ways of making a pact with the Devil.

The Formicarus (1435) gives the earliest if not the most complete
description of what happens. Supplied with friends who have already
forsworn God, the applicant arrives at a church on a Sunday morning
very early and renounces God and the One, Holy, and Apostolic Church.
He pays homage to The Devil, drinks the blood of sacrificed children,
and subscribes to the rules of the damned, which cover many things
from diet to cursing and sacrificing. He expresses the desire to trade his
soul for one or more favors from The Evil One, often wealth or power
for a specified number of years.

Actually signing the Devil's paperwork is difficult. It "must be signed in

the person's blood, drawn from the left arm. If it will not flow
easily--human nature resists such an act--it is warmed with fire
(representing passion overcoming intellect) and the person is inscribed in
the 'red book' of death".

Another way of selling your soul to the Devil was to do the following:

Get a piece of virgin parchment (from the first calf a cow bears, not
a piece never written on before).
Write on it with your own blood: "I promise GREAT DEMON to
repay him in seven years for all he shall give me. In witness
whereof, I sign my name."
Sign it in your own blood.
Then, within a magic circle, hold the document in you hand and
recite the invocation:
LUCIFER, Emperor, Master of All Rebellious Spirits, I beseech thee

A Collection of Sacred-Magick.Com < The Esoteric Library

 to be favorable to me in calling upon thy GREAT MINISTER
which I make, desiring to make a pact with him.

BEELZEBUB, Prince, I pray thee also, to protect me in my

undertaking.

ASTAROTH, Count, be propitious to me and cause that this night

the GREAT DEMON appear to me in human form and without
any evil smell, and that he grant me, by means of the pact
which I shall deliver to him, all the treasures of which I have
need.

GREAT DEMON, I beseech thee, leave thy dwelling, in whatever

part of the world you may be, to come speak with me; if not, I
shall thereto compel thee by the power of the might words of the
Great Key of Solomon, whereof he made use to force the rebellious
spirits to accept his pact.

Appear then instantly or I shall continually torment thee with the

might words of the Key: AGLON, TETRAGRAMMATON,
VAYCHEON, STIMULAMATHON, EROHARES,
RETRASAMATHON, CLYORAN, ICION, ESITION, EXISTIEN,
ERYONA, ONERA, ERASYN, MOYN, MEFFIAS, SOTER,
EMMANUEL, SABAOTH, ADONAI. I call you. AMEN.
When the demon appears, throw him the pact. Do not step outside
the circle on any account.
Breaking a Pact With the Devil
According to Saint Alphonso Maria de Ligouri (1696-1787), it is possible to
break a pact with Satan, even if it has been signed in blood. The
following steps must be followed:
1. Renounce and abjure any contract with Satan.
2. Destroy all writings, talismans, charms, etc., connected with the
black art.
3. Burn the written contract, or declare you regret and reject it.

4. "Make restitution for any harm done, insofar as is possible".
