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 [...]
Endorphin
Endorphin is a guy in a jogging suit. The symbol he gave me is a fleshknot that has a tripod base, with each part of the tripod rising to twist around the other two parts. He causes pleasure, notable in runner high, but also in meditation and experiencing something new, but he also opens doors [...]
Melatonin and Tryptophan
Melatonin always appears as a dark skinned woman. she’s the polar opposite of serotonin, but also does similar activities in terms of balancing the neurochemistry of the body as well as a person’s emotional moods. She’s also helpful in cases of insomnia. She and serotonin can be worked with simultaneously in order to help with [...]
The illusion of control
I’ve been doing some internal work lately and one of the issues that has arisen has been about control, specifically the control a person has in his/her imagination vs the control s/he has in reality. If a person feels that s/he has no control over circumstances in his/her life, there can be, sometimes, a tendency [...]
Short notes
A Note about Definitions and Meaning My post about definitions could easily also apply to the word models. The word models is used a lot in magic theory.

In this book Hall, discusses inter-cultural communication patterns and raises up concerns about the tendency to focus toward using external resources as [...]

We’ll be discussing the practical aspects of sex magic, but also examining the balance between pleasure and practicality.

Update on experimental work
I’ve been continuing to integrate Laban into my morning daily moving meditation. The body movements take up the focus of the thoughts, and a rhythm is created, out of time, out of the tightly monitored world, into a place where all that matters is the rhythm of movement and the stretching of the body. My [...]
Building up sexual energy in Sex magic
When you read most books on Western sex magic, one of the discoveries you make is that there’s a lot of focus on polarities, with a belief that men embody the active principle and women embody the passive principle. In other words, the women are supposed to lay there passively, while the man generates and [...]
Sex magic, grounding, and body work
Last night I got into a conversation with a friend of mine who does a fair amount of work in the sacred sexuality scene. We discussed, among other things, a tendency for many sex magic workers to not use proper grounding or shielding because they wanted to let all the sensations in. We noted, in [...]
