The folktales, legends, and myths surrounding the magicks of Illusion and Invisibility abound throughout the world. To conceal. To bend. To hide. To protect. But what if--in our practice of the Craft and understanding of the folklore today--we might actually accomplish them?

Do you dare to pierce the Veil?

On this penultimate episode of The Hidden Gods of New York City Series, we venture forth into the greatest portion of Long Island: Brooklyn. Here, we uncover the Liminality and Death aspects of the City, and look forward to the connection with those deities and spirits. Building towards the ritual working, Calling to the Dark, it is as educational as it is exciting.

As we continue walking through the immense power of New York City, we encounter the HIdden Ones hiding in plain sight. And the cultural, artistic, and performative sides of Manhattan, we realize that the Gods of Old are far closer than we think...

There is a simple and thin veil that separates the worlds. And thereof, with history in mind, it is most powerful and magickal to contemplate the following: what if the Old Gods had never disappeared? For indeed, they have not: and thus, to where in New York City might we begin our search for them?

Continuously, we revel in the thought of having the ability to fly. Whether physically or immaterially, it is a gift that is quite rare indeed. But what if—just what if—you actually had the tools to accomplish it?

Each of us yearns for a love that is requited and whole, one that surpasses and overcomes death. However, these maxims of living life fully, so as to embrace the Final Journey, are reminders to us all: there are guides, helpers, and spirits that join us on every journey. And it is two such spirits that, today, we venture forth with in our travels.
