A girl who wanted a place to write down ramblings, thoughts, and the occasional magickal "here is what I am working on "
Currently, I have gained another magickal partner - a woman this time. It feels good to have someone to keep me on the straight and narrow of daily practice, journaling, and to share those (to borrow from Tommie Kelly) woo-woo thoughts that most people in my life just won't get, understand and might possibly set me on fire. We have been working thus far on the Qabalistic Cross - it definitely helps center, dispels negative energy, and draw in Divine energy into the Aura. We have discussed adding the next step, the Middle Pillar. More and that comes to be.
I am in the middle of my Triptych Year. A past lover/magickal partner and I decided in 2019 that in 2020 we would do 3 cycles of 90 days, with one month of incubation between each cycle, to immerse our selves in a new belief/magic system. We split up in February and I kept to my Yule vow that I would continue the Triptych Year on my own. My first cycle was going to be New Orleans style Voodoo, I quickly could tell that the energy of that system didn't really call to me - it was not hostile, but not welcoming. However, I found that Conjure (HooDoo) did speak to me and welcomed me with open arms. More on that later.
I am currently in the cycle I first coined Asain Occultism - and have now paired it down to Taoist Esotericism. FYI... Asain Occultism is HUGE. It is rich, in-depth, and goes back thousands of years. Highly recommend. I haven't been doing the work I should, mainly out of frustration, shiny new things, and of course, COVID depression aka The Great Pause. More on the Great Pause later.
I have also become involved with Patreon - specifically with Damien Echols. Which has led to a private Patreon FB group, and some forays into Ceremonial Magick. I have tried to stretch it and say it is kinda sorta in a far off way Asain.. but I am pretty sure I am fooling myself. Essential this is one of the bright shinies that I have stumbled across. However, it has brought about some interesting change in my life.. so is it really a bright shiny or complementary? Time, as always, will tell.
I thank you for reading or not reading, as you like. I thank me for writing this and give blessings and thanks to each future me that will write on its pages and send this to the ether.

I empower this blog with the energy from The Divine to encompass what I write, the energy from the Iron of the Tracks to resolutely reflect back to me the Truth so I might grow, the energy of the Black Flame so I might continue to question and Xeper. I summon forth this blog's Spirit and draw from the Divine, the Iron, and the Flame the energy and power to breathe into it Life. I bestow on you the name Friend.
I charge you, Friend, to lead me to my personal Xeper, to become a light for me to see where the Ego lies and to show me where to garner the strength to cut it out. I charge you to respond to me and only me as I will take your heed and counsel. I charge you to see all, to hear everything, and to speak your truths to me. It is ordered, charged, and completed.
