Doctor Strange II#43:
VISHANTI
(This profile is a
temporary placeholder for a future Vishanti profile. For night now, it is just
an accumulation of spells invoking the Vishanti, which
start after the comments section.
Further, most of the stuff that is highlighted is something translated from
Italian via an on-line translator (Babelfish) - if you can check the original
issues and confirm/correct any of these, please do. I'll look into that further
when I work on an actual Vishanti profile, perhaps sometime before the end of
2014?)

Spells invoking the Vishanti
This is a list of spells and invocations involving Hoggoth
and The
Vishanti. The invocations which produced an effect could means that the subject
invoked was "behind the scenes".
Some invocations are taken by Catherine Yronwode's web site:
The Lesser Book of the Vishanti,
the greater part were added by me. Nonetheless the list is not complete and some
spells are still in Italian version. If not specified otherwise, the caster is
Doctor Strange.--Spidermay
It is also missing the most recent invocations, as this list
was submitted many moons ago--Snood

It was so strong that it was capable of seizing Mjolnir from the very hand of Thor. It was probably the first appearance of the Hand of Hoggoth, also called the Fist of Hoggoth.]

all prevent the dread Hobgoblin from drawing to me near--
by formin 'round me now--a mighty Conjurer's Sphere![Note: An oil black globe surrounded Strange, protecting him from Goblin-blasts and grenades.

Doctor Strange Sorcerer Supreme#49: Emancipation Incantation:
Satannish Watoomb and Ragadorr
Ikonn, the Seraphim and Cyttorak
Agamotto, Oshtur and Muniporr
Hoggoth, the Faltine, Valtorr and Denak
Those whom I've named plus others I've omitted
Those who threatened my cherished liberty
Hark to this irrevocable decree:
Such an enslavement will not be permitted
Your claims on my person I now reject
All demands of servitude I must deny
For your wisdom and might I've the utmost respect
But the price of its use is far too high
Better the path I walk be mine alone
Hear now these words: let my fate be my own!
Doctor Strange Sorcerer Supreme#74: Exclamation: Or by the Power of the Undying Vishanti... [Salome']
Doctor Strange Sorcerer Supreme#75:
Harken now immortal Vishanti, our Avatar is at the core!

Attend me now Vishanti...let your servant share your might!
Hoary Hoggoth, grant me power--Agamotto 'loose your light!
Blessed Oshtur, graceful lady, in your hallowed hands I place
all my mortal form encircles... let it change in your embrace!
Join with me, o Great Vishanti, join now with your servant true!
Aye! And let use come together--assume one form... anew! [Genghis]
