Yes, it’s Angie’s day, but looking at the rest of the bloggers it appears that maybe Angie won’t be posting either. So here I am in her stead to apologize for being a slacker and not posting this month. Truthfully I had a wonderful blog planned out. I did. I was going to write about connecting […]
I had to smirk at this month’s prompt. I was even almost dreading it. Actually, since no one else has tackled the topic I’m still a little nervous to write about it. Sexual spirituality. I thought something dirty at first. It’s hard not to, especially with S. Connolly mentioning how she felt this topic could […]
So in this blog I would normally just have commented on how I’ve been using Abyss Hyms music (check out the shop, up in the bar ;D ), I have used sea shells from store bundles to add the water element into rituals, I have bathed with salts dipped in mint oil before rituals calling […]
I know this month’s topic is supposed to be about ritual atmosphere, but I have something else weighing heavy on my mind and I thought today I’d do a little soul baring and tell you about something that happened to me this week. Now mind you my intention in sharing this story is not to […]
It’s pretty hard for me to write posts that are reader Q&A these days since most of my answers to the questions are printed in my books and most readers have read the bulk of my books. So everyone knows my opinion on this stuff. With regard to possession, suffice to say that I view […]

This left him jumping from tradition to tradition, looking for “the […]
To be honest, I was nervous about this month’s writing topic. I was having a hard time nailing down the practice of pathworking, but after sitting down with my copy of The Complete Book of Demonolatry and searching for the area on pathworking that I remembered seeing, I had soon re-acquainted myself with it’s particulars. […]
It took me the longest time to figure out what Pathworking is.. I feel dumb now, since someone just explained to me what it was.. I’ve been doing that since I was young in the occult, it was called “ground and center time” or “meditation guidance”. The rhythmic drum beat, ta ta ta ta ta ta […]
Each year always feels like we have a fresh slate, doesn’t it? We can start over with new routines or habits that we didn’t have before. I think once a year every magician should do a thorough cleaning of her energy and space. Some people do it in the spring time when they’re cleaning their […]
The custom of setting new resolutions or goals, right in line with the birth of a new year, seems entirely too Pagan of an idea to be of modern decent. At least to me, anyway. That does not however, change the fact that the modern practice is an empty shell of what it could, or […]
