In Troubled Times: DO NOTHING
I don’t generally talk politics here but I also cannot ignore that I and a large majority of my readers/students/fans are pretty stressed out over the result of the election. This stress increases with every new appointment. Students have been asking me what they can do to manage. I used to tell people that the […]

15 years ago I launched the Strategic Sorcery Course – a year long email course in practical magic. It is still available today at the price it was over a decade ago. $150 for the year, which works out to less than 3 bucks a lesson. I am now offering something I have only offered […]

You know where I stand on […]

I keep encountering students that want to work with the Darkest and most Wrathful Spirits they can find, and put them to work on NICE things. A group of spirits that curse a victim with loss? “Hey maybe I can get them to steal my addiction away!” A demon known for wasting a victim slowly […]
