She Continues
Ivo Dominguez, Jr. in Casting Sacred Space recommends—I’ll call it an exercise—but he recommends engaging in your own mythopoeisis. Write your own myths. Reach inside and articulate your myths. Now, I’ve recently done something similar as a series of trance utterances that remind me of the rune poems—my powers and abilities and tricks and knacks […] … Continue reading…Myth, Belief, Art
[Most recently edited 9 December 2017] I began this blog—as “antiquated” a concept as blogs have become—because a god asked me to do so. So I did. I had been keeping a magical journal (“grimoire” as I pretentiously like to affect to myself—and sometimes here) back at some point prior to 2013. I began in […] … Continue reading…Re-Introduction, Premises, Declarations
I had second hand smoke in my shirt and sinuses last night, and I find myself trying to sneeze it out. It’s been a windy weekend, leading to a cold week next week. Last night, as we left [a small po’dunk town], I had the chance to look at the constellations above for a few […] … Continue reading…Charges, Spirit, Cosms
I found myself fretting and feeling that gnawing fear-obligation in regards to [work], and I fought that off, as well as I could. It’s a consuming fear mingled with guilt and obligation and more. And I wonder, Why do I feel guilt and fear—and the fear of shame. I’ve been thinking about what CC calls […] … Continue reading…Attention, Bruno, Freya
That projection of vividly imagined—things, sights, sounds, sensations, is something everyone suggests as starting point or as kick-starter to magic. Thorn does so. So do others. I’ve found myself wondering about my disbelief and others’, and what I think happens—with worry about whether or not I’m being paid on the first, this revisits old anxieties […] … Continue reading…Counter ôl-vala, Rites, Chakra Notes, Bridging
I made it to the Sisters in Corunor on the night of the 15th, passing the cottage, which I think is itself alive and malevolent. The cottage draws one’s attention when you encounter it, and it draws attention back to it when you try to wander off. I managed to do so, making my way […] … Continue reading…Corunor, Otherwordly Power, Parsons
I again fell asleep before we got to Corunor, but I woke up for a time this morning. Rather than try Corunor again, K led me off in the Plain, into the Desert. Mind you, the sand was muddy and wet, like it’d been raining. It was daylight as well. My feet felt weird in […] … Continue reading…Middle Worlds, Paths, Exploration
I went to the glade last night, and the Morrigan asked me more of my will to magic & power and why I wanted wonders and more. Because I can do so, because I want the Otherworlds and power and freedom, because I defy the limitations of this world on me. She took me to […] … Continue reading…Perfection, Evil, Giants
I’ve had the feeling that I’m missing something—something going on around me or in the Otherworlds. Last night I went to the glade, the blue sky peaking [peeking?] through clouds and over the trees that were bare like in late autumn. Elethis rose, of course. I looked, out as I walked about with K, and […] … Continue reading…Phantoms, Internalizing the Otherworlds, Conceiving the World
The Otherworlds feel close today, and Elethis clearer and closer, the woods at hand. Last night I mostly chilled. —Nature and the Otherworlds are highly related, and in part, this stems from the Gaia-spirit of life on this world, though the stars and greater universe still have their life processes and dreams. The life of […] … Continue reading…Nature, Softening, Gods
