The problem with esoteric terminology
So often one of the problems I notice within occult culture is a tendency to couch problems and situations and everything else into esoteric terminology, as if by doing so, it will somehow make everything seem more cool. As you can probably guess, I’m not a fan of using obscure terminology needlessly. Back in my [...]
Purification as a magical process
I’ve been sick recently, which has provided an interesting opportunity to recognize how sickness can be a purifying process for the body. When I think about that and then purification as a magical process, I come up with the following video: ShareTweet
Mind mapping and magic
One of the creative techniques I’ve appropriated for magical work is mind mapping. If you’re not familiar with mind mapping, it involves creating a central idea and then drawing lines to related bubbles with information. It’s a useful technique for organizing information and also helping you see where the information fits into your process. One [...]
Phenylalanine and Epinephrine – Taylor’s Report
Phenylalanine: Appeared as an Emperor. He explained that he provides information and instructions to other neurotransmitters. He’s one of the more common NT’s and can cross the blood-brain barrier. He showed me a network and his role in that network was that of an overseer of sorts. Epinephrine otherwise known as Adrenaline appeared as a [...]
Pattern Recognition and magic in your life
For my birthday, my partner Kat got me this game called Attika. It’s a game where you try to build a city from one temple to another temple or just try to build the entire city. You also have “neighbors” trying to build their cities. And what’s most interesting is that to get extra turns [...]
Identity and Time
Each year on my birthday I do an elemental magic switchover to a new element for the next year. Last year I switched from Emptiness to Time. This year, however, I’m not going to switch from Time. Part of it is because astrologically Saturn is a significant influence over the next year and I think [...]
My work with Bune
I recently decided to work with the Goetic Demon Bune, who amongst other things, provides riches to a person. As you can probably guess my focus was on doing a wealth magic working with him. However riches is a very ambiguous term so I knew I needed to decide how I wanted to work with [...]
Illusion, Definitions and the Movie of your life
I’ve been reading Illusions by Richard Bach (Amazon Affiliate link), which is an interesting book about a reluctant messiah. At one point in the book the author uses a metaphor of life as a movie to point out that people create their own films and determine in them how helpless or actualized they are. I [...]
Geekery and magic
I’m a geek and I’m proud of it and how it influences my approach to magic. When Pop Culture Magick was first written, I remember getting a review where the reviewer said it must have been written by a geek and I suppose he was right. I am a geek and I enjoy exploring the [...]
Why the body is a pathway to the divine
I came across this article where a Baptist preacher has argued that doing Yoga goes against the Christian faith because it teaches that a person can experience the divine through the body. This isn’t surprising because so much of Christianity is about damning the body as a portal to sin instead of celebrating it as [...]
