Elemental Work Table
I am writing this post, because I’m just trying to formulate a good table for the work my new coven will be doing going forward. I am trying to determine good work for each elemental grade to help them choose what they do for themselves going forward. My new coven is in a good place…

Changing Coven
Sadly I found my previous coven was not very accommodating to my aggressive views on LGBTQIA+ rights. As a gay man, I can be a little bit stubborn when it comes to the rights of my community and let’s say my coven wanted me a bit more mellow and apologetic. They caught me at the…

Moon Magic
The focus of this article is really to determine and look at the best times for performing magic according to the lunar calendar. Firstly whoever said when a coven meets at a particular date for the moon is called an esbat was an idiot. Esbats can be at any time and don’t need to relate…

The Virus
I am writing about the Coronavirus. (CoViD-19 which stands for Corona Virus Disease of 2019 or SARS-Cov-2 which stands for Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus Number 2). Its infection, its treatment and preventing it with or without vaccines. I receive a lot of messages about this and I hope to analyse it carefully, break it…

Stop sharing junk
So, once again, I am coming across people sharing junk that isn’t true. Too many people in the pagan world think that they are ready to teach other people, when they haven’t begun to learn anything yet. Magical truth is silenced in favour of “fake news”. It’s hard to know everything, but look out for…

Imbolc / Candlemas
This is basically a gathering of notes about Imbolc. I just happen to be preparing for a ritual with my future house mates and Imbolc (a traditional Wiccan celebration) is the excuse to have the rite. There are many inspirations for this ritual including the celebration of Brigid an old Irish Goddess who is remembered…

What makes a book occult book?
There are a number of criteria, which I believe make an occult book useful and unfortunately many books fall very short of the mark. People might get upset as to why I review books poorly. They think I am being too harsh. I am actually just trying to demand a better quality of book from…

Wards
Okay so I am not a huge fan of this term “Wards”. I personally prefer the term “protective magic”. I only really come across the word “wards”, in American magic practicing groups that overlap with RPGers. Those are some fine people and I love them, but the total absence of the word in other magical…
