Sensory deprivation is a trend that’s taking off, and I have seen advertisements for “sensory deprivation chambers” where they let you float in water for thirty minutes with little to no outside sounds.

It is socially recognized, medically recognized, and governments are starting to make laws around nonbinary people. But is that enough? I believe that everything in…

It’s no secret that pagans and occultists like to wear all black. Not all do, of course, this post is making sweeping generalizations. However, it’s all in good fun. 1. Because they are edgy. Obviously wearing all black shows how deep and tormented they are. People are not allowed to wear a certain colour “just…

Here is a list of bands you will probably find on your occultist friend’s iPod or Zune. Of course, this is all in good fun. Most of these bands are good, so it’s not like I am shaming anyone for liking them. My gut reaction says that if you’re an occultist you like at least…

Over the years I had heard chatter that people who were mentally ill were somehow more drawn to the occult than neurotypical individuals.

In BDSM culture, it is commonplace to have a short ritual in a D/s relationship for a collaring ceremony. This ritual is intended for D/s couples who are interested in a somewhat Thelemic collaring ceremony, however it can also be enjoyed by those not familiar with Thelema It does borrow heavily from Qabbalistic symbolism as well…

I am proud to announce the new SNMT album “Deep Cuts ’06-’16”. Except it’s actually old. Don’t tell anyone. It’s all hip fresh tracks. Ignore the 2006 in the title! I realized I had tracks scattered around the Internet. Nobody was listening to them so I decided to gather them all together. Each track has…

Dreams are the way your subconscious files away meaning from your every day life. Like a computer, our brain works with a particular architecture and programming language. When we dream, our brain is taking our every day experiences and turning them into symbols. It might not even make any sense, but it doesn’t have to….
