The Pentagram and It’s Many Meanings! – Between The Pillars

Of all the symbols associated with magick and the occult, the pentagram is the most popular and recognizable, almost the emblem of the Craft. And even as all the occult symbols infiltrated and found a place in the mundane world, the pentagram was above all else, as it is the common symbol for stars, as well as for stardom. When little kids draw space in art class, they use the Pentagram for stars, and the Pentagram is what dominates the Walk of Fame. Tetahatia: Armadel Invocation – Between The Pillars.

Why Your Magick Seems to be Failing – Between The Pillars

That is why dabblers usually end up quitting before they actually find anything. We’re all familiar with the former “occultists” who tried out the occult for something very simple like money or love, didn’t actually bother learning anything, and eventually quit because it either didn’t work because they didn’t put any effort into it, or they did put effort into it but didn’t know what they were doing and screwed themselves. Then there’s the average atheist who did a ritual once, just so he could boast about how it did not work and shut out spirituality entirely. But why then, does magick sometimes seem to not work how we wanted it too, especially when we’re new?

For one, because in an age of individual freedom many of us are uncomfortable with authority figures, let alone deified ones, and especially when they’re not particularly sane or their moral compass differs from ours. But also because of our modern attitude towards divinity, in that we tend to see it as the exclusive trait or monopoly of a particular group of entities. Thus, when a dead or living ruler is given a divine status, a common reaction is to look at it as a form of hubris and power grab. When reviving ancient Roman polytheism in the modern age, these are not unfounded issues and should not be dismissed outright as something that gets in the way of a “true” cultus.

Yet neither should they be accepted uncritically as no-brainers. Strange women lying in ponds Enter Latin inscriptions from pre-Christian Europe. Got Problems? – What Use is Your Magick? Greetings Faithful Readers!

Got Problems? – What Use is Your Magick?

A subject has recently come up on the Solomonic Yahoo Group that I’ve been wanting to address for some time.

Sorcerous Saints and Elevated Ancestors ~ The Starry Cave

A few people have written asking how Christian Saints and African faiths are at all compatible and some have written to tell that this Christian oppression of African faiths must cease as yet others of a more Satanic inclination have expressed a furious resentment with mentioning orixa and in particular Christian saints as being remotely related to Quimbanda in any form or way.
