I have yet to find anyone who keeps bird notes beyond a list on ebird, so I setup my notebook my own way... Little bit log book, little bit nature journal, little bit grimoire.

Sharing because I love looking at other people's notebooks so maybe you do too 🤷🏻

Grimoires Explained: Manuals of Magic

YouTube

I’m sure #AstroTheoros brings some #Atrologers joy, but as a Mage who is mostly interested in the #Magick side of #Astrology ,it falls very very short, charging too much for too little.

Astrodienst manages to be very useful in terms of Fixed Stars-but needs to add more, & has #Sidereal options. For free.

If I ever get a Desktop again I will be using either one of the free Open Source Astrology apps and or a copy of SolarFire.

And speaking of Sun Sign Astrology, there was this REALLY weird type in Portugal, before the Modern Era, where if they didn’t know ANY birth information about you, they used #numerology based on your name to figure out your Sign, and that was viewed as your Destiny. At least in #Grimoires

📰 | „Verbotene“ Zauberbücher vom magischen Werkzeug zur okkulten Massenware

Ob #Grimoires oder #Necronomicon, #Zauberbücher mögen okkulter Unsinn sein, sie waren aber über Jahrhunderte hinweg sehr einflussreich.

Über hunderte Folgen hinweg sehr einflussreich - nämlich bald 500 - ist auch der #Podcast @GeschichteFM von @richard und @meszner, für den Bernd Harder im #SkeptixBlog eine Empfehlung abgibt.

Happy #Valentine’s Day!

Aequus Nox invited me on the inaugural episode of her re-launched podcast to talk about the history of “love #magic”, and boy howdy, do I have some opinions.

Join us as we talk about erotic binding spells in the Egyptian magical #papyri and later #grimoires, deities both romantic and necromantic, and just what does February 14 have to do with love, anyway?

“Arthwait was in the fetters of his own egoism; while he pronounced himself father and grandfather of all spiritual science, in language that would have seemed stilted and archaic to Henry James, or Osric, and presumptuous in the mouth of an archangel … He wanted to evoke the devil, but was terrified lest he should be successful. However, nobody could be more pedantically pious than he in following out the practical prescriptions of these absurd charm-books.”

Many thanks to the folks at @hadeanpress for providing me this editor's copy of The Hidden and True Pneumatology, translated by Steve Savedow with an introduction by Dr. Al Cummins. The book is an archetypal exemplar of early-modern German popular #grimoires, combining elements of learned magical lore with Christian #necromancy and treasure divining, a genre which is perhaps beginning to receive its due attention in English publications. #magic #occult #books
