Hey there, fellow seeker!
There are many ways to skin a cat, so the macabre aphorism goes — and no less is this true when it comes to those who attain a certain level of elevated, spiritual repute. We have our Aleister Crowleys, our King Solomons, our Austin Osman Spares…however, it’s easy to blind ourselves to true, esoteric potence when inversely blinded by the spectacle of a few, skillful and very performative actors. I invite you all today to pay respects to the sundry women of witchcraft and esotericism who, unfortunately, continue to live within the shadows of history, who have contributed no less than their popular, male counterparts, and yet have not received the ample recognition they deserve.

Next week, I’ll be wrapping up a new video on Leo Rubedo, or more commonly understood as the lion that eats the sun, as depicted in alchemical texts and woodcarvings from the medieval period. I hope you’ll all join me! And until next time, below are a few highlights from last week’s videos.
Much love,

Beyond the aesthetics and the algorithms lies the true, unfiltered influence of the Craft.
It’s a quiet revolution of the spirit that changes how we breathe, lead, and love.

Behind every "great man" in the occult was a woman holding the real power. 🤫✨
We’re pulling back the curtain on the women who shaped esoteric history from the shadows. It’s time to stop calling them "assistants" and start calling them the architects.

A saint with four legs?
In a small French village, a ghostly greyhound became a holy protector.
