Let’s Talk About Success & Magick
I wrote this post back in December and seriously debated posting it. However, I think it’s time. There’s been a lot of talk recently, via various magicians, about success. The main gist of it being, it’s great to declare how powerful a magus you are or how “emotionally rich” you are, but if you can’t manifest good relationships, wealth and/or…

Wisdom in Platitudes
I am constantly annoying my husband with perky platitudes. I’m one of those folks who finds them to be useful reminders when the going gets tough, and even inspiring when I’m feeling down. I also find myself quoting them at others. My husband, on the other hand, is one of those people who thinks my perky platitudes are annoying bullshit.…

Ending the Competition
I’ve never been a competitive person. In my younger years I used to ride in horse show competitions. Not because I wanted to compete with others, but because I wanted to push myself.

Initiation – Again
So tonight, while reading through Qliphoth Opus III, I was again confronted with that same proclamation that “True” initiation involves complete deconstruction while one attempts to traverse Da’ath. I have broached this subject in several posts HERE and HERE. I’m still not sure how I feel about this. Personally, I find it rather bold to suggest that the more tragedy…

Rant: The Future of Esoteric Publishing
Recently I’ve been reading a lot of blogs with posts about the future of esoteric publishing. Some people have a great deal of optimism – others don’t. Admittedly, as both a reader AND writer of esoteric books – I’m finding myself in the naysayer camp. I’m not optimistic at all. Mostly because so much crap is being churned out of…

Keys of Ocat: Excerpt
Unfortunately one of the things my publisher didn’t do with Keys of Ocat: A Grimoire of Daemonolatry Necromancy, was share an excerpt. So I have decided to do that here. Right now the standard editions are on sale for $30 each! Get a copy of the hardcover before it’s gone. There are also beautiful temple editions available. For TTS members…
