And the 3rd Angel sounded And a star fell from heaven Burning as it were a lamp And it fell upon the 3rd part of the waters Asteroid I’m a ball of fire Fire from heaven Terror from nowhere You’ll never shoot me down Days turns to minutes 5 seconds till it hits us 3 […]

The Voice Behind the Thunder
This is another one of those posts that is written for no reason, and that is, I think, completely fine. I always find that the urge to write comes on as a slow, warning rumble; it’s as if the pressure builds and the charge grows until the crackle can almost be tasted on the back […]
The Mighty and their Necropants.
To Hrothgar was given such glory of war, such honor of combat, that all his kin obeyed him gladly till great grew his band of youthful comrades. It came in his mind to bid his henchmen a hall uprear, a master mead-house, mightier far than ever was seen by the sons of earth, and within […]
Thoughts on and inspired by Juju Rouge:Fetich, Blood, and Necromancy
[W]ithin us, the element recalls its limitlessness amid the primordial flux, as element and flux devour themselves anew: the winds, the trees, and the stars now speak. Through immeasurably distant ages, death and birth greet the soul of man in the wavering blade of grass, and they hear the dark inner night of the blood […]

From ghoulies and ghosties and long-leggety beasties and things that go bump in the night, good Lord deliver us!” – Anon The things that go bump in the night, that rattle windows and howl around the dwellings of men – these are the things that concern us as sorcerers. At certain times of the year, […]
The Spirit Feast and the Altar of Flesh
‘[G]ave it to his disciples, saying, “Take and eat; this is my body.” Then he took the cup, gave thanks and offered it to them, saying, “Drink from it, all of you. This is my blood of the [new] covenant, which is poured out for many for the forgiveness of sins.[“]’ -Gospel of Matthew, 26:26-28 […]
Open the Gate
Let us consider the dual nature of the Art in which we deal. Its symbolism acknowledges duality, as an understanding thereof. For those of us who find the secrets of our Souls to be potent and seductive Mysteries of the most ancient kind, we are presented with a set of thought processes and operations which […]
