Three Different Ways:
Dreams, Madness, and Myths

  • Fixing Things: Upcoming Changes

    Just a heads up. In the next several weeks, Three Different Ways will be moving off Google’s Blogger Platform. I just have to decide which platform to go with. While Google gives a lot of features for the pleasant cost of $0, I find myself wanting features that Google just doesn’t offer. Full control of…

  • Idling: Only Three Different Ways?

    Why did you name the blog “Three Different Ways” anyway?

  • On KLRO

    Y’all just please keep in mind, the title of magician barely applies to me, much less Summoner or Sorcerer. I’m learning stuff by being thrown into the midst of the vat, and finding the names and proper rituals afterward. (Okay, I MIGHT be actively reaching. Maybe. But I try to only skirt the edges.)

  • Fixing Things: Different Screens, Different Sizes

    Playing around with Blogger settings, I decide to see what this “Blogger in draft” is all about. First thing that catches my eye, “Option to turn on Mobile Formatting”. Oh, I’ve been wanting this for a while. Let’s see what happens.

  • Dream: Black Hole Star

    I’m floating. Aware of movement, but not aware of orientation. One side of me is exposed to great heat, of such intensity the physics whore in me is screaming of the impossibility of existing here. The fantasy bitch calmly reaches over and slaps her, saying, “We’re dreaming, silly. Shut up and enjoy the ride.” I…

  • Why I Magic: Dream & (Lots of) Exposition

    I’ve been meaning to write about how I play at magic, but various mental dams and iceblocks keep tripping me up. So instead of writing the “how”, instead, I’ll write the “why”. Magic for me has always been about control. Not control of other people. Not control of the dipshits and numbnuts that seem to…

  • Dream: Geometry, Episode 2

    I’m missing a crucial component of my personal seal. The seal is based on a circle within a circle, to represent the Innermost Self and the Outer Self. The framework for the Outer Self is done. Try as I might, I cannot scribe anything to my satisfaction representing the Innermost Self. This afternoon, I take…

  • Dream: Geometry, Episode 1

    I have been struggling to create a personal seal for a (yet another) magickal project. For some reason, I quickly became fixated on using the compass and straight-edge to create it. Perhaps I like making things difficult. Perhaps. Over the weekend of January 29-30, I had a vicious migraine. It confined me to bed for…

  • Dream: Goodbye, My Love

    Last I saw Rigson in person, I was passing through the coffee house last week. (Last time in a dream, he was tying me up.) I had dropped my trimmed Thoth deck when getting out of the car. While I was sure I had picked up every card that had fallen, my nerves would not…

  • RSS Feeds, A Rant

    If my posts aren’t looking right in your RSS reader, or if they are limited to first paragraph only (or other such nonsense), do drop me a line and let me know so I can fix it.

Got any book recommendations?
