If starting and sticking to a daily spiritual practice is your goal, but you don't know where to start, try setting aside just 15 minutes per day for your practice. Spend:
-5 minutes researching/reading about your practice
-5 minutes praying and/or meditating
-5 minutes engaging in ritual
Once you become comfortable with that routine, you may feel comfortable increasing your daily practice from 15 minutes to 30 minutes or more per day. Do what works best for you, your spiritual goals, and your schedule.
I accidentally deleted my first post with my introduction, so here we go again!
Hi, I'm Mar, a Spanish nonbinary queer creature [she/they]! I'm an intersectional transfeminist, illustrator and tattoo apprentice, and also a singer, actor and alternative model when the stars sweetly align.
I strongly believe that art can be a form of magic. I love to draw powerful women and queer characters, often with a dark, occult, mythological touch. I also have a soft spot for paganism, witchcraft, vampires, angels and demons. Animism, paganism and witchcraft itself are essential to me, and designing sigils fascinates me.
I also love to dance like a maenad, laugh wildly, autumn, abysses, wind, storms and bonfires; and to sing and listen to intimate, feral and a bit terrible songs.
I'm new on Pixelfed, and I'm so happy to be here! 🖤
In ancient Greece, the Gorgoneion was a special amulet or symbol that depicted Medusa's head, and was said to protect people from evil. It appears frequently on classical Greek art, and is a reference to the goddess Athena, who wore Medusa's severed head on her breastplate. #TempleThursday#folklore#mythology#GreekMythology#Greece#occult

Hi all. I'm a professor of Religious Studies in the U.S. who researches medieval Islamic thought, especially Sufism, occult sciences, and Arabic manuscript studies. I'm also co-founder of Islamic Occult Studies on the Rise (IOSOTR), an ongoing international workshop. You can check out some of the fruits of that at https://www.islamicoccult.org/.
I'm also a low-skill linux enthusiast, scifi fan, anarchist, and all-round fan of the obscure.
I have been reading Agrippa's TBOP chapter on auguries and am mighty tempted to write a web tool to help people make their way through some very confusing instructions. Would anybody be interested in that?
Sleeping poorly? Daily concerns, worries and anxieties pushing their way into your dreams? We've all been there, and I wrote some music about it. This track is called "The Waking World Pushes Its Way Into Dreams."
Some of the best advice that I can give to magick practitioners is to avoid comparing yourself to other practitioners. Comparing yourself to others won't lead to growth like focusing on your path and putting in the Work will, but it will steal your joy by inciting feelings of inadequacy.

#BOTD Montague Summers. Described as "arguably the most seminal twentieth century purveyor of pop culture occultism", Summers was ordained as an Anglican deacon, but converted to Catholicism, styling himself as a priest despite having no diocese. Initially noted for literary scholarship, he became notorious for his books on witches, werewolves, vampires and demonology, for which he claimed to entirely believe. #books#occult
