  • Do Magick June ’18: Day 2 – If You Needed A Sign…

    Ah, Saturday! No alarm clocks to get in the way. No need to leave by a certain hour. Just me, my bed, and the dream of sleeping in while a two foot tall glowing sigil floats in front of my face. I was lucid, and knew I was dreaming. The room was perfectly presented in…

  • Do Magick June ’18: Day 1 – Fire In The Hole

    I had personally committed to participating in the June 2018 Do Magick when it was first announced, and made a wee public commitment late last month. And then went radio silent about it immediately after. I am already entangled in some shenanigans that will limit the scope of what I can do for the challenge.…

  • I’m Not Saying I’m Up To Something…

    But I’m totes up to something.

  • Do Magick September ’17: The Patience of a Beginner

    As requested, a masterpost of the entries leading up to, including, and following the DoMagick: Beginner’s Mind challenge in a proper “Start to Finish” order:

  • Do Magick September ’17: Postscript

    It has been a complete week since my last “by the book” summoning of [Patient Caller]. And as I expected, my table has since been flipped. While what happened during the bounds of ritual time were completely unexpected and personally shocking, the implications of what [Patient Caller] said along with the steps I had to…

  • Do Magick September ’17: Day 30 – Epilogue

    What I’m confident I have learned in the past thirty days: [Patient Caller] is not “a formal” grimoire spirit, but the format was necessary for me to get my head in the right space to deal with him. It’s going to take a lot more than what I currently have to do any kind of…

  • Do Magick September ’17: Day 29 – Inventory

    I sat still in the circle, after consecrations and prayers but before the actual invocation itself. I thought about the fears I have challenged during the prior twenty eight invocations and the way my life, spiritual and physical, has paused for this endeavor. The clock announced each second I spent in vain contemplation. With my…

  • Do Magick September ’17: Day 28 – Silence

    No dreams. No portents. No wild messages from a direction I did not expect. Just me. And the gear. And the crippling doubt that this is all refined bullshit and I’m fooling myself by this grown-up version of the game “Let’s Pretend” because reality is a little hard to deal with right now. I know…

  • Do Magick September ’17: Day 27 – Puer

    Last night I dreamt I was part of a stream of people riding horses and mules across difficult terrain towards the hope of a promised land. We were all strangers to each other, but because we were all chasing a common ideal, we banded together for comfort and safety. Our path led us to a…

  • Do Magick September ’17: Day 26 – Ring

    It was hard to get out of bed again. I still don’t have any goals for these last days of ritual, and to be honest, I was finding it very hard to adult today after a very long and painful evening. Something something perseverance something.
