  • ROpocalypse Now! With Special Guest Craig VI Slee!

    SUNDAY SUNDAY SUNDAY!

    12:00 PM Central, 6:00 PM GMT see Craig VI Slee and Rufus Opus get schnockered and talk/discuss/and-sorta-not-really-argue about Heathenry, Goetia, Hermetics, and the manifestation of the story of our lives!

    Craig is a silver-tongued bard from the old country, wandering around living the kind of life that Jake Stratton-Kent is tryingto make available to everyone. His wit, wisdom, and insight into the invisible realms is a thing mighty to behold.

    We’ve each set aside a bottle of scotch for this, he’s drinking Laphroaig, I’m sticking with the Macallan, but there will be drunken shenanigans and deep thoughts exchanged.

    To get some idea of the kind of guy he is, check out his bio and previous posts to Cold-Albion. He’s also curently a writer and creative content developer with Foolish People, one of the most interesting groups I’ve seen putting magical theory into practice in their lives this decade.

    We’re still working on determining the format. We’ll be drinking live and recording it and publishing it later for anyone who doesn’t see it. It will likel be on either Google or GotoMeeting. I’ll post a link on my FB page when it’s available!

  • ROpocalypse Now! With Special Guest Scarlet Magdalene!

    At LAST! 
    Sorry it’s taken so long to get this up, but here it is, finally. 
    Scarlet is wrapping up her Abramelin work and getting ready for the final rites next week. In our discussion, we cover what it’s like to go through this process, the perception of it vs. the reality, and of course, how the magic we work manifests in our lives on a regular basis. 
  • Seven Spheres Course Available to the First 25 People to Sign Up (this session, others to follow)

    Ok, so I am FINALLY ready to start selling the Seven Spheres Course!

    My web site is totally fuct. I’m going to fix it eventually, but until then, I made some blogger pages to house my stuff.

    Regarding the Seven Spheres Course: Check out the description on the page. It tells you what you need to know. DO NOT BUY THE COURSE IF YOU DON’T HAVE THE BOOK. Buy the book here, then sign up for the courses:

  • ROocalypse Now! Advanced Warning: Special Guest Scarlet Magdalene!

    So this weekend, I’ll be doing a broadcast of my hit show, ROpocalypse Now! featuring yet another awesome friend of mine who’s totally DOING THE WORK that makes this stuff we do so fun.

    This weekend at 2:00 PM Eastern, I’ll be interviewing Scarlet Magdalene, a long time riend and co-working magician who has been both inspirational and motivational throughout my Work. I think it will be on a GoToMeeting, like SOMA uses, but I don’t have a link yet. I’ll update it here and publish it all over facebook when the time comes. Here’s the link:

    1.  Please join my meeting.
    https://global.gotomeeting.com/join/522501021

    2.  Use your microphone and speakers (VoIP) – a headset is recommended.

    Scarlet and I go way back. Our friendship extends to the time I first was thinking I might possibly maybe in some way have attained K&CHGA, and the network of contacts she maintained helped me see and understand what that might mean and how it works in practice.

    Long time veteran of many inter-order wars, erotic fiction writer, female geek who overcomes the bullshit adolescent male dominated tech industry dialy, entrepreneur, successful contactor, life coach, and vegan, Scarlet exemplifies the potential of what an activated magician can do, if they want. Nothing stops her, and nothing keeps her down. Fearless and persistant.

    Anyway, we’re going to have a lot of fun talking about her adventures in the Abramelin rite, the joys of finding almond wands, how stupid people can be, and how to get past that and go after the things you love.

    For more information about her, you can find her on FaceBook, or take a look at her blog, Alchemical Musings, “the caffienated philosophical rantings of a mystic who maybe thinks too much.”

  • ROpocalypse Now! With Special Guest Jason Miller!

    In today’s edition of ROpocalypse Now!, I sat down with Jason Miller to discuss his latest book, Sex, Sorcery and Spirit. As might be expected, we meandered.

    I had a chance to go over some of my favorite topics with him, and explore the things we enjoy doing most. Jason has been an inspiration, a mentor, and above all else, a friend over the last few years. We joined the Gents for Jupiter together, and his whole life, in spite of what he likes to say about himself, is exactly the kind of example of what a magician can do if they set their minds, hearts, intentions, and magical resources to manifesting what they want, as they see fit.

    He has issues though. He can’t admit he’s become a living god.

    I kid! I kid so much.

    But watch the interview, you’ll see what I mean. Dude’s living the dream and won’t take credit for it because he’s gone through enough shit to know better than to start claiming titles or anything.

    I like this conversing with my friends thing, it seems to be working out nicely. I think I’ll keep working on the camera thing, I haven’t figured out pointing it at the person speaking yet.

    Also it took a few HOURS to load to youtube, so I am not editing it any more to add in my awesome intro/outro music.

    Hope you enjoy it as much as we did!

  • Tonight: Seven Spheres on SOMA!

    This evening we’ll be doing another webinar, this time on the subject of my new book, Seven Spheres! It’s free to the members of the S.O.M.A. FaceBook group, which can be found here:

    My show starts at 11:00 Eastern, and it will likely go for a half-hour to an hour. It’s way past my bed time, but it’ll be fun anyway. 
    Also, for those interested in the course, I will be making an announcement about how to sign up here on the blog shortly. I need to fix my web site up a bit, and finish getting a few of the presentations ready before I feel comfortable selling it.
    Oh, and guys who bought the book, thank you so much! Sales are going great, the books are flying off the shelves. I thought I’d have a hard time getting rid of them, but man, you guys rock. If you haven’t bought yours yet, no pressure, but they’re probably about a third gone so far.
    When I start the courses, they’re going to go for about five weeks at a time. We’ll work through the Seven Spheres over a five-week period, and that will make sense to those who’ve bought the books.
    More on that to come!
  • ROpoclypse Now! With Special Guest Deborah Castellano!

    I really wish the video had been saved, Deb was every bit as lovely as you’d expect a Glamour Artiste to be. I don’t really understand why it didn’t, but at least I managed to save the audio.

    I had such a good time. This is basically a conversation between two friends who happen to be awesome magicians. Deb’s ongoing success speaks louder than anything else ever could, and her practice and graceful approach to this thing we do have been an ongoing source of inspiration and motivation for me since I had the good fortune to meet her. 
    You can watch the video here, and while it’s playing go check out her store in another tab. Remember, all orders must be in by December 12 to receive them in time for Christmas! She’s at:
  • ROPOCALYPSE NOW! With Special Guest/Secret Mentor Deborah Castellano!

    So, I’m going to start doing the ROpocalypse Now! broadcasts more regularly now that my book is published. I have things to talk about, things to say, things to teach, things to promote…

    And there are these people, people you need to know about. I’m not insane, or alone in this stuff. I have friends that are making this shit happen, this “what thou will” shit, on the regular. I’m in talks now with a couple of my favorite Magicians to do some interviews.

    This weekend I scored an interview with Deb Castellano, author of the Arte of Glamour, and also mistress of the Charmed Finishing School.

    Deb’s been an inspiration and a key component in the development of the R.O. you know and love today. Her writings and insights led to the understanding and practices that let me enjoy an amazing relationship with an amazing lover. She’s been such an integral part of the joyful unfolding of my life that I feel like it’s super valuable for you to experience.

    She also happens to provide me with the mojo hand feeding oils I use regularly in my own practice. I recently went to her Etsy Shop, La Sirène et le Corbeau (The Mermaid and the Crow) and ended up not only restocking Aurora and the High John oil, but also buying a shit ton of new stuff she’s got available, including but not limited to the Tumnus the Fawn scent she made based on the Narnia stories.

    She’s also got a discontinued Jadis scent that we talk about in the interview. You probably couldn’t handle it. She’s big, she’s powerful, and she knows what she wants, and I know how scary that can be to you. The way it was for me, before I stopped giving shits.

    Deb’s a walking talking example of how making this stuff a part of our lives changes our lives. Her nonchalant integration of magical practices is exactly the kind of thing you’d expect a Mistress of the Artes to manifest.

    Anyway, look for the link to the interview as soon as possible, I’m working on it as we speak!
