Factors for Improving Your Spirit Communications

Lucifer suggested I write this one. Big thanks to him as well as to my friends André, Heather, and Emma for helping me direct it by submitting questions. Friends in my occult communities have needed to remind me a few times in the last year that I have unusually high

To Be Claimed By A Deity

Recently, I said goodbye to most of my former pantheon, which was the planetary spirits with Apollo substituting for the Sun. It was a very difficult, grief-filled process. Not long after completing the ceremony, I was lying on the floor from the big wave of Feelings when Lucifer returned. "

The Grief within Switching Spiritual Paths

The Grief within Switching Spiritual Paths

Whew. If I ever learn how to not be hard on myself, it's during this period of my life. I knew that moving to a new state and city would be an upheaval and that such big moves inherently involve grief, but I didn't expect to

The Fine Line of Tricksters and Truth

"Here's my conclusion," I said to my friend Ana, "the truth is that the Devil is like any other god." This is a fact that is surprising, maybe even offensive, to people who haven't met him. It's a boring and

First Time Follies with the Trickster Devil

Two months ago, I started a spiritual relationship with Demon Emperor and Prince of Darkness Lucifer. So far, this has turned out significantly less dangerous than former Christians in my life would have assumed. That said, as of extremely recently (like a few hours prior to this writing), my belief

What Constitutes A Homeland?

What Constitutes A Homeland?

In traditional western astrology, the 4th house is the house of "home" as well as the mother or the father depending on what source you're using. There's something very specific about that grouping. After all, don't we often call where we were

How My Polytheistic Relating to Deities Has Evolved Overtime

"Hey, uh, sorry I was acting like such a freak when we first met. I was kind of going through it, as you know," I said the other day toward the planetary god Mars. "(It is fine,)" Mars emanated back. He refers to images of a

Apollo and Daphne: The T4T Myth

This morning I was talking to my beautiful Grace while driving to a certain area where I like to do my writing. I love this area because Apollo's presence is extremely strong there. As I was coming through with my car, it occurred to me that I would

A Quick Prayer for Clarity to Apollo

I attend vocal coaching, which is amazing because it mixes my lifelong dreams of taking singing lessons with learning how to speak in a way that better suits my dropping voice. My vocal coach is Billie Lyn Ploof (email her at billielynploof@gmail.com if you want video-based vocal lessons

Managing Neurodivergence With Planetary Worship

This is a broader follow-up post to my more recent Quick Spell to Lessen Social Anxiety. I have discussed before my personal framework for practicing religion as a neurodivergent person and how to start worshipping the planets as doing so has improved my life immeasurably. This blogpost aims to offer

A Quick Spell for Lessening Social Anxiety

This was Apollo's gentle suggestion. Today, I was on my morning walk with my dogson and I noticed that I became very anxious and harried when a nearby homeowner and some contractors came outside a few feet from us. I have a long history of social anxiety, which

Planetary Worship, Theurgy, and True Love

In my post on my spiritual set up, I briefly mentioned that I work with the planetary spirits. Basically, what this means is that I have divine relationships with deities who go by the names and carry the traditional associations/domains of the Moon, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter, and Saturn

Apollo, Aegis, and Lessons in Divine Relationships

Recently, I saw on Instagram that Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day was "aegis." The first image defined the word as "protection, guidance, sponsorship" as granted by a larger entity or individual. That's my relationship with Apollo, I thought. There is a popular

The Blessing of Knowing Reincarnation

I am writing this in a moment of frustration, which not the the place I expected to blog this from. As I have briefly mentioned before, reincarnation has played a foundational role in my spiritual development. I have known that I am a being who has lived countless lives since

How to Practice Magic When You're Inconsistent

Maybe I'm just fated to be a cosmic weirdo even among other cosmic weirdos. A big reason I named this blog what I did, with the About angle that I have up as of this writing, is that I feel like a lot of occultists including those who
