Plans for Des Occultus Aranea


So NEOvirtual shamMAN is a blog of my own occult journey primarily. I hope, obviously, to present that occult journey in a way that is interesting and useful to other occultists and would be occultists.

To that end, I have been endeavoring to put together a resource for local occultists. The solution I have settled upon takes the form of a podcast consisting of interviews with local occultists of various disciplines. The idea is that these will help me progress upon my own journey, they will help local occultists bring awareness to what they do, and provide a useful general informational resource to occultists who are not actually local.

That's the plan.

I have the first interview in the can. Said interview is with ceremonial Hermetic Magician and Freemason: Troy the Devil Man. The audio is better than expected, but still rather rough in spots (read rubbish, you will hear my dishwasher and both of my dogs during the course of the interview).

I will be posting that interview once I have the minimal editing done that I intend to do.

In the meantime, here's a list of topics that I hope to cover as subjects of discussion on future podcasts.

  • "What is Magic?" a discussion on the definition and nature of Magic.
  • "Mythopoetics and Appropriation" A discussion on syncretism, mythopoetics and the politics of cultural appropriation in the occult.
  • "Why do you bother?"What is the benefit that Magical practise provides to one's life? A Discussion.
  • "Education in the Occult" a look at courses on the occult available in the Lower Mainland- such as Enochian.org and Scholomance.
