Best seminar topic for discussion this week.

Students did not disappoint in their reflections.

Bluesky esoteric book challenge. A book per day (it's okay to skip days if you're really busy), in no particular order, until you've shared ALL of the best occult books in your personal library. No explanations, no reviews, just covers!

Happy 9th Birthday to my familiar and reseach buddy extrordinaire. Lover of sitting on laptops and pushing notes off my desk. #catlife #cats #familiar

This year my uni reading group have been looking at various kabbalistic texts. Next week we start on Crowley. Cant wait to hear what the students think. It is the best part of hosting a reading group by far.

Couldn't find the youngest fur baby. Turns out he is snug as a bug in ALL the blankets. But he was unimpressed that I found him. 😂
