  • Thoth Tarot Deck A (Brief) Long-Term Review

    This video is a brief long-term review of the Thoth Tarot. Besides my biggest impressions of the cards, it also shares some background information on the deck, such as why and how I got it. Regarded as the most magickal deck, Wiccans and Setians sometimes prefer the Thoth Tarot. According to the Book of Thoth, Crowley always wanted to create a text presenting the unadulterated ancient truth of the Tarot. While many attempted such a project, they failed due to needing more knowledge and accurate attributions. The only one who succeeded partially was Eliphas Levi. Understanding Tarot was a pictorial form of the Tree of Life, Levi contributed to the Devil and Chariot Major Arcana. 

    Crowley's original aim was to correct and update the classic medieval attributions while enhancing Tarot's esoteric aspects. Eventually, the masters protecting and navigating the Mega Therion brought him to the artist Freeda Harris. And as written in the Book of Thoth:

    "Together, they bent their energies to the formidable task of preparing the 78 cards of the Book of Thoth."

  • Circles of Magick Part 1.

    This episode deals with the elemental ordering within magickal circles. It is an addition to those I made on SIRP and the Fields of Operation in Practical Magick. Besides different arrangements, the video summarizes personal reflections as one doing the work for almost five years. 

    This part discusses the most common orderings within the magickal circles. Delving a bit deeper," the second examines the shapes created by those orderings, using common sense and simple logic.

  • How to Get Lean and Muscular Part 2. The Role of Willpower

    Have you ever tried to get in shape but couldn't stick to a regimen because of lacking willpower and discipline? Have you been told to exhaust yourself to the end fighting your body's urges only to lose the battle, feel ashamed, and get labeled as one who fell off the wagon? If that's the case, that makes us two. I fell off the wagon in 2013. And (actually) never got on it again. Being the second of three parts, this video shares some lessons I learned about willpower and discipline while building and improving my physique.

  • The Lesser Ritual of the Hexagram LRH, and the Keyword Analysis

    This is an explication of the Lesser Ritual of the Hexagram (LRH), as presented in most books on Western Magick. Besides background on the technique and its uses, the post includes some suggestions for experimentation to (hopefully) help your magick. 

    Essential to practical magick, LRH was initially kept by the Golden Dawn only for adepts of the grade of Adeptus Minor (5=6). Besides making it their first macrocosmic technique, this also placed LRH in the same category with rites like SIRP, a thorough examination of which you can watch on this channel. 

    Later, Crowley made arrangements, including the ritual, at the beginning of the path for A.A. adepts. In its invoking form, LRH brings the elements' macrocosmic aspects, making the working impact the objective reality. Its banishing form clears the heavenly realm while keeping the outer world at bay.

  • How To Get Lean and Muscular Part 1. Nutrition

    This episode is a three-part series sharing "what I think" are the best and easiest ways to get and maintain a lean and muscular look. Said differently, I do my best to summarize how I built and continue improving my physique without restrictions and suffering.

    Starting with nutrition, this part covers a few dietary approaches that changed my life; the second and the third will cover the role of willpower, such as what I do at the gym and my overall physical activity. I'll keep things as simple as possible. And if my viewers are interested, I will elaborate on the mentioned subjects in future videos. 

    The purpose of this content isn't to argue my approach is better than the others. Nor to claim one method as more scientific. Apparently, people are getting shredded in various ways. And there's plenty of science to back or deny anything. Instead, I have two aims. The first is to make you go and do something about your physique right after watching this video and not playing another falling into a rabbit hole. Whether you'll do things in alignment with what I say is optional. In fact, I urge my clients and readers to always be skeptical about everything, approaching things like scientists. That means testing things firsthand, comparing your empirical results, and developing a non-biased perspective. 

    The second is to provoke you to consider body recomposition, not as a project you do on a side. But to see it as a process impacting your whole life. To understand it can cause misery 'but also' produce remarkable results improving your entire being, not just look.

  • Fields of Operation in Practical Magick (Part 2. Thoughts and Suggestions)

    Being the second of two parts, this video discusses the 'fields of operation' in practical magick. While the former deals with theory and techniques, this one shares thoughts and suggestions based on personal reflections on using the model. So if you haven't already, it would be reasonable to start with the first part and proceed with this. As mentioned in it, the purpose of this content isn't to tell anyone what to do or claim one approach as 'right,' whereas others as 'wrong.' Instead, it is to help others find what works for them.

  • How to do Practical Magick: The Fields of Operation

    This is an examination of the fields of operation (or the field model) in practical magick. It is the first of two-series video, conveying a synthesis of my research. It goes through theory, such as different techniques and modifications. The second part covers reflections and suggestions based on personal experience. 

    Besides my desire, this series is inspired by a comment from a loyal subscriber, Keith Crook. I hope both parts will bring value to him and others watching the video. The purpose of this content is not to tell anyone what to do. But to further educate others, helping them find what works best for them.

  • The Psychopath's Bible For The Extreme Individual Book Review


    This is the most critical message in Dr. Christopher Hyatt's The Psychopath's Bible. Starting with a humoristic recommendation to check with your doctor, lawyer, and local police station, before attempting anything written in it, the book distinguishes itself from the 'sweetness and light' fluff in typical self-help and spirituality books. Mixing occultism, philosophy, and social psychology, it presents truths the most have difficulty swallowing. Therefore the Psychopath's Bible is written for a rather exotic person. While I by no means pretend to fall into this category, in this episode, I discuss some parts I find most interesting.

  • The Supreme Invoking Ritual of the Pentagram SIRP

    Overlooked and disregarded as a mere 'more powerful version of the 'Lesser,' the Supreme Invoking Ritual of the Pentagram (SIRP) is a unique technique packing plenty of punch. Found in lectures of offshoot orders like Stella Matutina, SIRP follows the structure of the Greater Pentagram ritual. And some call it a "more souped-up" of GIRP. Initially, SIRP was taught only to students of the second (or inner order) of the Golden Dawn. If performed correctly, its effects can be felt in the Yetziratic or formative world, which is right above or behind our reality and can be seen as its scaffold. Or better yet, as frontend code of the pages that are our world and lives.
