Like the Adjustment chapter, the Hermit chapter introduces no new locations as it takes place at Jonas’ Merriam Park home that was introduced in the Hierophant chapter. It begins with a discussion between Jonas and Sofia Borgia, the Magister of Italy, who are clearly old friends. It concludes with Michael and Samantha arriving to explain what they managed to find out on their trip to Rochester in the Chariot chapter.
Augoeides Posts- What's Down There? February 15, 2019A cave in Nottinghamshire UK has been found to have more protective symbols designed to ward off evil than any previous archaeological site. Deeper inside the cave, beyond the marks, is a deep hole that leads to... well, I don't think anybody has gone in yet to find out.

- Football Magick February 14, 2019European football - that is, soccer in the states - has a long history of magick and spells used by players and teams to increase their odds. American football, on the other hand, does not. That might explain the continued success of the New England Patriots and quarterback Tom Brady, who finally admitted in a recent interview that his wife, model Gisele Bun […]
- Christian Ouija Board February 13, 2019You know how fundamentalist Christians hate Ouija boards? How they're supposed to summon demons and get people possessed and all that nonsense?

I mean, I'm sure that if I lived there the anti-witchcraft squad would come for me long before the online satire police, but still. I do a lot of […]
- High-Level Witchcraft Attack February 8, 2019An astute Facebook commenter pointed out that the group of witches supporting Vladimir Putin that I wrote about yesterday bills itself as "The Empire of the Most Powerful Witches." They're not just AN Empire of Witches, people, they're THE Empire of the Most Powerful Witches. There's no evidence that they had anything to do with toda […]
- Witches for Putin February 7, 2019Since the election of Donald Trump, evangelical Christians have been up in arms about witches casting spells against him. There is some truth behind that belief, such as the Trump magick war from two years ago. Some magicians support Trump as well, such as Christian prayer warriors and so-called meme magicians. This week Vladimir Putin got some assistance as […]
- Click to Pray February 6, 2019In a new development that is literally about spiritual technology, last month the Roman Catholic Church launched a new smartphone app called Click to Pray. The app was covered by numerous media outlets, some of which considered it kind of silly. But as a practicing magician, I think the idea is good even if Christian theology is misguided on the idea of spel […]
