Embodiment magic
A while back I’d written about some of my experiences with Laban, a form of physical movement. My main purpose for studying Laban was to learn more about the spatial realities of the body as well as how it moves through space, something I considered essential for really getting the methodology of paratheatre, which Antero [...]
Recognizing and changing patterns
I was talking with Kat recently about patterns, specifically the patterns of behavior each person has, as well as the patterns that occur between people. It seems to me that each person does have specific patterns of behavior that they act out, and also have specific patterns of behavior that occur in the relationships…kind of [...]
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 [...]
Working with the monkey mind
One the issues that comes up in mediation is what Buddhists call Monkey Mind. It’s that troublesome voice that starts saying random messages to you and distracts you from meditating. For people who are trying to achieve a state of no mind, the monkey mind is particularly troublesome because its a reminder that your mind [...]
Meditation and the relationship to the body
I’ve been doing a lot of research and practical applications of meditation from various spiritual systems, and the one thing I find consistent is that for meditation to really work, there must be some interaction with the body. The body is the gateway to experiencing meditation, which makes sense as a meditation is really an [...]

I’ve found that using meditation to do this has been very helpful in allowing me to undo a lot of physical stress. The way to utilize meditation to [...]
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 [...]
Update on Laban and Space/Time Cellular work
I’ve been continuing to integrate Laban into my morning meditation/workout. I’ve mastered all the basic stretches and I’m now incorporating the dimensional movements into what I’m doing. I’m noticing subtle differences in my awareness of my body and how I move. My core is getting strengthened and my sense of balance is improving as a [...]
Changes to the website
You may have noticed that over the last month I’ve changed the Magical Experiments blog into the the Magical Experiments website. These changes have partially arisen due to changing life circumstances and also because I’m getting more active again in my magical work. I’ve changed the wordpress theme for the site, to reflect these changes. [...]
A meditation on love
This morning I decided to meditate on love, and more specifically on a realization I had of a pattern of getting involved with people I showed interest in over the last couple of years who, in one form or another, didn’t fully return the interest. This includes people I would actually have a romantic relationship [...]
