There is a theory which argues that \u201ccomplaints\u201d of being busy is actually a distinctly modern form of bragging. I don\u2019t think that\u2019s always the case, but it definitely is, here. Since my last full moon post, I have suffered a problem that probably every magical blogger is happy to have: I have been too busy doing magic to write about it.<\/p>\n
I did two more nights of full moon magic after the first. The results were \u2026 not what I expected, but solid. Sunday night I went on a second visionary journey, and Monday I performed a series of offerings and fired a shoal of sigils.<\/p>\n
The Seven Spheres in Seven Days group-work has gotten spectacular results. I\u2019ve had time in the last two days to implement the instructions presented to me during my Saturn rite, brining my rituals that much closer to the ideal form of the Gates Rites. As such, I have completed my first Mars ritual and my most successful Mercury ritual to date. I\u2019m very, very excited to start the second week tomorrow.<\/p>\n
Last night, tonight, and tomorrow will be dedicated to Samhain. Last night\u2019s visionary work was \u2026 potent, if not fruitful, and I did my divination for the coming year. Tonight will be offerings and a Bacchanal. Tomorrow will be more visionary work.<\/p>\n
I will tell all these stories in good time, but \u2026. <\/p>\n
Tomorrow is also the start of National Novel Writing Month, which will devour every moment of my spare time. Accordingly, posts of substance may see a sharp decrease. Conversely, however, I\u2019m going to try dabbling in hypersigils\u2014my NaNo is going to be a combination pseudo-grimoire in the tradition of the Simonomicon, a magical narrative in the tradition of the Invisibles<\/em>, and a weed-and-absinthe soaked memoire\u2014and the results (both creative and material) may appear here.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" There is a theory which argues that \u201ccomplaints\u201d of being busy is actually a distinctly modern form of bragging.
