Video: In Defense of Witchcraft Books

Last updated on: August 2, 2019 at 4:36 pm By Mat Auryn

This video is in response to a comment that was left on one of my articles or reviews that the Covenant of the Goddess facebook page shared. I can't remember which article it was, but for some reason the comment came to mind when thinking of what to talk about while staring into my iphone screen. The comment I'm referring to has since been deleted, but my feelings on the topic are the same. So here is my very first in what is hopefully an ongoing series of Youtube videos. Read more

Review: The Gospel of Aradia Oracle

Last updated on: February 5, 2019 at 12:44 am By Mat Auryn

The Gospel of Aradia Oracle Deck by Stacey Demarco and Jimmy Manton is a great deck for many reasons. First, the theme is amazing. It's great to see someone's vision on Aradia: Gospel of the Witches and how they've turned that into an oracle deck. Read more

Review: Casting Sacred Space

Last updated on: August 1, 2019 at 11:28 pm By Mat Auryn

When I think of "genius" in terms of occultism, Ivo Dominguez Jr. is usually the very first to come into my mind. Part researcher, part mad scientist and complete magickal genius, Ivo is consistently providing information and techniques that push boundaries in terms of innovation within witchcraft, occultism, and psychic development. He and his work are greatly admired by his peers, students, and readers within the occult community for these reasons. Casting Sacred Space: The Core of All Magickal Work is absolutely no exception. The book contains a foreword from T. Thorn Coyle and received praise from Dolores Ashcroft-Nowicki, Janet Farrar, Jason Miller, M. Macha Nightmare, Sam Webster, and many more --- and for good reason.

The Best Books On Rider-Waite-Smith Based Tarot Decks

Last updated on: August 2, 2019 at 4:36 pm By Mat Auryn

Tarot is such a complex subject and a life-long exploration and study. Some people just use the "little white book" or throw it out and use their intuition. However, the deeper you dive into the Tarot, the more you will get out of it. With any form of psychic ability or divination, it's crucial to have as big of a palette of symbols and associations to paint with as possible - which turns any good divination or psychic reading into an extraordinary one.

A Rebuttal to Doreen Virtue’s Attack On Unicorns

Last updated on: August 2, 2019 at 4:41 pm By Mat Auryn

Doreen Virtue states that "Neon-colored unicorn images can be used by the devil to mesmerize us into his kingdom, where glitter substitutes for the bright light of Jesus. Remember that the devil always copies God, using poor quality substitutes." That is just unfair and cruel. Who hates unicorns? Unicorns are perhaps the best thing ever. Let me remind you why Unicorns are awesome. Read more

Best Books On Plant Magick

Last updated on: August 2, 2019 at 4:39 pm By Mat Auryn

There is such a massive sea of books on plant magick and herbalism out there these days. Unfortunately most of them seem to keep repeating information from Scott Cunningham's herbalism books and don't dive deeper into the magick and spiritual bond of plants and witches. While Cunningham's books were the first of their kind and hold a special place in my heart as they do others, there's so much more to working with plants than merely creating incense and oils. Do you want something more advanced? Something a bit deeper? Read more

Happy!: Grant Morrison, Tulpas, and Bronies

Last updated on: August 2, 2019 at 4:39 pm By Mat Auryn

A night of looking for something to watch on Netflix took me down some weird rabbit holes on the internet that I couldn’t not share. Scrolling through my app looking for something to cast onto my television it recommended that I would like a show called “Happy!” The preview image grabbed me and the synopsis was bizarre enough to peak my interests – “A boozy ex-cop turned hit man thinks he’s losing his marbles when a cartoon unicorn only he...

Review: The Robin Wood Tarot

Last updated on: February 7, 2019 at 9:51 pm By Mat Auryn

The Robin Wood Tarot by Robin Wood is a deck that is very close to my heart for sentimental reasons. It was the second tarot deck that I ever owned and the first that I was able to ever doing readings with.
