Las invocaciones deben ir precededias de un período de autodisciplina espiritual, preparación y purificación; si el mago omitiera este requisito, sería "despedazado por los demonios", es decir, destruído por los conflictos no resueltos de su propia mente. Esta vistosa imagen romántica demuestra que muchos magos de principios del siglo XIX, que profesaban una modalidad no ortodoxa del cristianismo, obtenían esta purificación por medio de la oración. En cambio, la mayoría de los magos actuales practican algún tipo de introspección meditativa o se someten a concienzudos análisis. (Mago en su oratorio, grabado de La astrología del siglo XIX, aproximadamente hacia 1825.)

VERSUS
here we go to another candle I know, all the girls there playin' on a jelly roll /time to take a ride - time to take it in a midnite eye / and if you wanna go - get on below /pinking out the day - dreaming out the crazy way /finger on the love - it's all above / everywhere it's six-sex-six by luck a satellite wish will make it just enough / you'll be making out with a witch in a coffee truck / time to rock the road - and tell the story of the jelly rollin' /dirty boots are on - hi di ho pinking out the black - dreaming in a crack /Satan got her tongue - now it's undone
I got some dirty boots - yeah dirty boots I got some dirty boots - baby dirty boots .... Hey!

FALLAS DE ORIGEN
A doppelganger or fetch is the ghostly double of a living person, a sinister form of bilocation.The word is also used to describe the sensation of having glimpsed oneself in peripheral vision, in a position where there is no chance that it could have been a reflection.They are generally regarded as harbingers of bad luck. In some traditions, a doppelgänger seen by a person's friends or relatives portends illness or danger, while seeing one's own doppelgänger is an omen of death.
In Norse mythology, a vardøgr is a ghostly double who precedes a living person and is seen performing their actions in advance. The doppelgängers of folklore cast no shadow, and have no reflection in a mirror or in water. They are supposed to provide advice to the person they shadow, but this advice can be misleading or malicious. They can also, in rare instances, plant ideas in their victim's mind or appear before friends and relatives, causing confusion.
In many cases once someone has viewed his own doppelgänger he is doomed to be haunted by images of his ghostly counterpart. Other folklore says that when a person's doppelgänger is seen, the person him/herself will die shortly. It is considered unwise to try to communicate with a doppelgänger.
Shelley Álvarez?
Percy Bysshe Shelley
On 8 July 1822, Percy Bysshe Shelley, English atheist and poet, drowned in the Bay of Spezia near Lerici. On 15 August, while staying at Pisa, Mary Shelley wrote a letter to Maria Gisborne in which she relayed Percy's claims to her that he had met his own doppelgänger. A week after Mary's nearly fatal miscarriage, in the early hours of 23 June, Percy had had a nightmare about the house collapsing in a flood, and
... talking it over the next morning he told me that he had had many visions lately — he had seen the figure of himself which met him as he walked on the terrace & said to him — "How long do you mean to be content" — No very terrific words & certainly not prophetic of what has occurred. But Shelley had often seen these figures when ill; but the strangest thing is that Mrs W[illiams] saw him. Now Jane though a woman of sensibility, has not much imagination & is not in the slightest degree nervous — neither in dreams or otherwise. She was standing one day, the day before I was taken ill, [15 June] at a window that looked on the Terrace with Trelawny — it was day — she saw as she thought Shelley pass by the window, as he often was then, without a coat or jacket — he passed again — now as he passed both times the same way — and as from the side towards which he went each time there was no way to get back except past the window again (except over a wall twenty feet from the ground) she was struck at seeing him pass twice thus & looked out & seeing him no more she cried — "Good God can Shelley have leapt from the wall? Where can he be gone?" Shelley, said Trelawny — "No Shelley has past — What do you mean?" Trelawny says that she trembled exceedingly when she heard this & it proved indeed that Shelley had never been on the terrace & was far off at the time she saw him.[1]
Percy Shelley's drama Prometheus Unbound (1820) contains the following passage in Act I: "Ere Babylon was dust, / The Magus Zoroaster, my dear child, / Met his own image walking in the garden. / That apparition, sole of men, he saw. / For know there are two worlds of life and death: / One that which thou beholdest; but the other / Is underneath the grave, where do inhabit / The shadows of all forms that think and live / Till death unite them and they part no more...."
