Congratulations!
As you can see, you don't neet to wait for the 3rd full moon after the
solstice, clean the blank board with 7 different solutions, draw the
pentagram on the floor and slaugter the goat, as someone claimed recently

How long you need to soak and how hard the rubbing is depends on the
paper. It can be near impossible, but it can also float off almost on it's
own.

good work!
