Gatekeeping, Shadow Work, and the Nature of Daemonolatry

A few weeks back I encountered a young practitioner who told me I was a gatekeeper, that I was doing Daemonolatry wrong because I wasn’t making it accessible enough, and was turning it into something dogmatic. I’ll admit I was confused, because my mantra has always been that books aren’t gospel. They’re collections of ideas, […]

Working Through Transitions

Transitions have a way of shaking things up. Even when the change is something you chose, there’s still that strange (or even unsettling) in‑between space where your routines feel unfamiliar and your magical practice doesn’t sit the way it usually does. I’ve been in one of those periods myself, and I’ve noticed how easy it […]

What Daemonolatry Looks Like After the Beginner Phase

Most people encounter Daemonolatry through intensity. There is fear, fascination, urgency, and a sense that something should be happening all the time. Signs are watched for while experiences are cataloged. Silence often feels like failure and progress is measured in moments rather than years. In many ways, starting out feels like a love affair.

Embracing Change with the Death Daemonic: Finding Power in Transition
