A friend had bugged me ages ago about writing on “ritual dramaturgy,” and the idea made sense, got me thinking, but despite making an outline and starting to draft something, it fell by the wayside because it got boring. I was approaching it in the wrong way, and I was very much overthinking it or […] … Continue reading…Ritual Dramaturgy
The “Spell to Helios” in the PGM—PGM IV.1596-1715, specifically—is described as “the consecration for all purposes.” I’ve performed this spell on four occasions with different timings and processes.
