The Moon chapter returns to the hill outside Rochester and adds no new locations. Elspeth and Jim travel to the site, where Jim proceeds to call in his magick office associates and capture Elspeth. He then makes his move against Balzador, but the dagger does not work quite as expected. In the confusion Elspeth finds herself able to use magick for a few moments and sets up a series of spells that help her escape. She steals one of the government sedans and sets off for Minneapolis to meet back up with the remaining Guild magicians.
Augoeides Posts- Magick Competition Banned July 11, 2019I had no idea anything like this went on in the world today, and it sounds like a great idea to me. But unfortunately the government of eSwatini, formerly Swaziland, decided otherwise. It recently banned a proposed event that would involve practitioners of witchcraft and magick competing against each other in a test of paranormal powers. Organizers had plann […]
- It's a Curse! July 10, 2019One of the things about living life as a practical magician is completely forgetting how freaked out non-magicians can become when encountering anything out of the ordinary. This story from Australia is case in point. A woman digging in her garden found an ugly ceramic ball that looked like a bad high school pottery project. But her friends on social media w […]
- Via Solis Cancer Elixir - Year Three July 8, 2019Today's Magick Monday post is a full script for the Cancer Elixir Rite that we will be performing tomorrow, Tuesday July 9th, at Leaping Laughter Oasis, our local Twin Cities body of Ordo Templi Orientis. We will continue the momentum of the last two years by performing one of these per month for each of the twelve signs. I will be posting the full scri […]
- Against Good Omens June 20, 2019It's been one of the most predictable go-to storylines throughout the history of Augoeides - you know, along with evangelists saying dumb things and creationist evangelists saying really dumb things. The fact is that there are some Christians out there who have such nonexistent senses of humor that they consider satire and comedy dangerous in some myste […]
- Facebook Friendly Mass of Nuit and Babalon June 18, 2019On the latest installment of "Law and Order: Nipple Police" the folks at Facebook have decided that the image I have been using for this post for years now, "Babalon" by the amazing Kat Lunoe, violates their "community standards." Goofing around with the post this morning, I found that if a link gets flagged, you can't just […]

- Lizard People Can Kill June 12, 2019Or at least online trolls who manage to convince gullible YouTube viewers that lizard people exist can. Cults are famous for killing their followers - that's practically the definition of a cult versus a garden variety new religious movement. Think Jonestown or Heaven's Gate. But up until now the loose online group of conspiracy theorists dedicated […]
- Sorry, I Don't Date Reincarnated Evil Witches June 7, 2019I've been a little behind on the weird news lately, but this last week Slate's "Dear Prudence" column included a doozy of a letter that is apparently for real. There was some discussion in the comments over whether or not it was fake, but as a member of the Twin Cities occult community I can vouch that there are plenty of deluded people o […]
