Maya Deren: Art, Magic, and Voodoo in Transfigured Time

Last updated on: March 3, 2017 at 9:33 pm By Lilith Dorsey

The true beauty of Maya Deren is that she was a renaissance woman. She was a legend, film theorist, poet, journalist, dancer, photographer, filmmaker, and Vodou priestess. Maya Deren's innate spirituality shone through in all that she did. The L.A. Weeklydescribed Maya Deren as “Fellini and Bergman wrapped in one gloriously possessed body.” Read more

Tarot, Jodorowsky, and Questions from a Crippled Hand

Last updated on: March 24, 2014 at 8:35 am By Lilith Dorsey

Alejandro Jodorowsky is a genius. I thought that way before I was blessed with the opportunity to shake his hand last Friday night. The man is a filmmaker, author, shaman, visionary, iconoclast.

Otherness, Power and Privilege: Vampires Are Us

Last updated on: April 3, 2014 at 12:34 pm By Lilith Dorsey

I met a gentlemen at a pagan event who claimed to practice the Vampire religion. Not sure what this entailed except for an albino complexion, a lot of leather, and a propensity for weirdness. I don't know what to make of that, and I'm also not sure what to make of this recent resurgence of Vamp-tastic film and fiction. Luckily, Margot Adler has sunk her teeth into this material and she lays it bare for us. Read more

A Little Lore from the Leprechaun Museum for St. Patrick’s Day

Last updated on: March 15, 2014 at 9:17 am By Lilith Dorsey

Like many of us out there, my family and I have a bit of Pagan Irish heritage in our family tree. Because of my devotion to the goddess Brighid (also known as Brigit) and her Voodoo sister Maman Brigitte, I borrowed a little Irish luck and took a trip to the Emerald Isle. One of the many magickal joys of my trip was a visit to the Leprechaun Museum in Dublin. Read more
