Lux Occult

In this episode, Luxa is joined by a long-time friend to discuss how magick can be used to reflect upon and make changes to the self, or ego using Ego Magick (or Yellow Magick in Peter J. Carroll's system). There is also a discussion of eggs, how they relate to the ego and how to use them for magickal purposes. It's Eggcellent! (Sorry.)
