She Continues
Vision When I was younger, I took a photo in the family backyard. We had a huge yard, all things considered, with lots of trees, and our lot ran back against an undeveloped, wooded lot. When I developed and printed the photo I took—35mm color—I saw a little figure in it. I grabbed a magnifying […] … Continue reading…Vision & Breath
I feel how after a few days of decent sleep and not having to perform the usual professional and social personae I feel much more myself, and I can practically feel myself unfurling. I can feel body & spirit opening, allowing me to breathe, to flow, to align, to live, to shape body & self, […] … Continue reading…Unfurling, Weather Patterns, Twilight Bodies
Energy work remains one of those things that I know I need to do, that I try to do, but that I feel I should do more of. That said, I also wonder about the tech behind energy work. I concur with folks like Jan Fries who observe that chakras and similar approaches to energy […] … Continue reading…Energy Work, Spirit Interaction, Self
In Magick Without Tears, Crowley advises to begin memorizing the Qabala while also internalizing and applying it to one’s daily life: There is no better way of training the memory than the practice of the Holy Qabalah. The whole mechanism of memory depends on joining up independent data. You must go on adding a little […] … Continue reading…Body, Fetch, Talker, God Soul, and: Part 4: More about Talker
I’ve thought about that thread and light off and on today, and I find myself thinking about contrasts. I can see Elethis more easily with clouds in the sky, but less so with clear or cloudy skies. Immersing myself in the light makes the scene somewhat visible rather than just white light. I hate forgetting […] … Continue reading…Immersion, Practice, Energy
The Morrigan came shortly after I entered the glade last night, taking me high into the clouds to a small, fairly clear place in the HW—a pine forest with a cabin or cottage with a cauldron out front (on a fire). The truth, or spoken words tended to come true there, she told me. She […] … Continue reading…Information and Signal Processing in Trance and the Otherworlds, Gods & Agency, and Castaneda Tropes
Last night, I flew to the clouds and lounged with the Morrigan on Elethis, her in her headdress—but I find I can also call such a headdress, which also shadows my sight. [I think the Raven makes this so—] The clouds are the very edges of the Higher Worlds, but I can see the merits […] … Continue reading…Castaneda, Multiverse, All the Corvids!
In projection, I’ve noticed that when I’m above the clouds with Dana-Morrigan, she either assumes raven form or wears a raven headdress (at least the couple of times we’ve gone so far). She’s been less immediately, or less persistently, “down here” with me, but she’s still present and generally present when I’m projecting. We went—she […] … Continue reading…Trance, Hurur, Thaumaturgy
[East is start for GD, and Feri, I believe. Not sure about north.] On the bus, I had a very palpable sense of being the kithain alone on the bus—so many folks closed off from the world, on their phones or listening to music. I mean, I was one of those people not long ago, […] … Continue reading…Acts of Power, Otherworldly Scales, Stalking
It took the man who was _____ mentioning it for me to realize, but Beltane is upon me—and this makes sense. It feels like it should be Beltane. But how is it so? Is this day different? Yes. I knew it was a good day before I set out, but I was distracted by setting […] … Continue reading…Holy Days, Energy, and Meditation
