Not too long ago I was talking to a young man about training for the priesthood. He told me about how he’d gone through the training for priesthood in several other traditions and he was always left feeling like the training had no substance. This left him jumping from tradition to tradition, looking for “the […]

Bringing in the new
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 […]
Rituals….
I thought I would take a different approach to “ritual”. Christmas (or Winterval, or The Holiday Season or whatever you want to call it) is here again, and I thought I would write about my rituals at Christmas (I still call it that) and my publish day is 25 December ! Christmas Eve. First thing, […]
The Power of Ritual
This month’s topic was supposed to be about ritual. The exact topic was Ritual: What rituals have had the most meaning for you and your life? But as many of you know, I’ve been busy completing Infernal Colopatiron (which is now at the printer) so the month got away from me and I was unable […]
Raising Hell
This month I didn’t do a post on the second because the end of the year for me means chaos at work. However I was given a rare opportunity to read the pre-print copy of S. Connolly’s Infernal Colopatiron and it inspired this random post that isn’t even on my day so I hope the […]
Dark Purification Ritual
What is the most important ritual to you? I have to say it is a purification ritual. There are many types of rituals out there, and all of them can be placed in their own categories. Majority of those rituals are for action around the user, but a purification ritual focuses with the magick user him/herself. […]
Now is the Time for Atonement
“Of all these things I offer unto you, infernal wisdom waits…” Burt Offerings – Iced Earth November is when I sit down with the Daemonic Divine and re-evaluate my goal lists. It’s also a time when I tend to make my biggest offerings. Not offerings to the Daemonic directly. I’d like everyone to reconsider the purpose […]
Generous Offerings
Infernal Greetings to All … Welcome to November and this month’s topic, Offerings. I really don’t have a huge amount of information to provide on my personal feelings and practices regarding Offerings. I am totally aware of the significance and purpose of giving Offerings and their importance to Demonolatry and Occult practices in general. They play a […]
The Blood
Many people talk about using family heirlooms and even a part of the ancestor they want to connect with.. I want to offer another form that doesn’t involve grave robbing or stealing your great grandfather’s dentures. The key of life, the key of magick, the key of you. Within it is link to you and […]
Goetia and Necromancy
It makes sense being my internet handle is Goetic Nick that I discuss necromancy and the Goetia. Goetia has a handful of necromancers Demons (or genii if you prefer). The beauty of the Goetia ritual is it is a scrying ritual which makes it a perfect communication device or tool for communicating with the other side. Obviously since I […]
