Card 31It's getting on for midnight, so we can proceed with a new Magic Monday. Ask me anything about occultism and I'll do my best to answer it. With certain exceptions, any question received by midnight Monday Eastern time will get an answer. Please note:  Any question received after then will not get an answer, and in fact will just be deleted. I've been getting an increasing number of people trying to post after these are closed, so will have to draw a harder line than before.) If you're in a hurry, or suspect you may be the 143,916th person to ask a question, please check out the very rough version 1.0 of The Magic Monday FAQ hereAlso: I will not be putting through or answering any more questions about practicing magic around children. I've answered those in simple declarative sentences in the FAQ. If you read the FAQ and don't think your question has been answered, read it again. If that doesn't help, consider remedial reading classes; yes, it really is as simple and straightforward as the FAQ says. 

The image?  That's the thirtieth card in The Sacred Geometry Oracle. Card 31, the Sphere, when upright tells you that the possibilities before you are much bigger than you realize; when reversed, it tells you that you're completely missing what's going on. The sun in the upper left corner of the image tells you that this card belongs to the final third of the oracle, which corresponds to Nwyfre, the principle of spirit and meaning.  We've completed our passage through the first two of the basic root functions of sacred geometry -- √3, the principle of the vesica piscis and the equilateral triangle, and √2, the principle of the square and its diagonal -- and now we're working with the √5, the seed from which the Golden Section unfolds and resolves all back into unity.


I've had several people ask about tipping me for answers here, and though I certainly don't require that I won't turn it down. You can use the button above to access my online tip jar. If you're interested in political and economic astrology, or simply prefer to use a subscription service to support your favorite authors, you can find my Patreon page here and my SubscribeStar page here. 
 
Bookshop logoI've also had quite a few people over the years ask me where they should buy my books, and here's the answer. Bookshop.org is an alternative online bookstore that supports local bookstores and authors, which a certain gargantuan corporation doesn't, and I now have a shop there, which you can check out here. Please consider patronizing it if you'd like to purchase any of my books online.

And don't forget to look up your Pangalactic New Age Soul Signature at CosmicOom.com.

With that said, have at it!

***This Magic Monday is now closed. See you next week!***

I recognise the name of the Misanthropic Luciferian Order - the main guitarist/vocalist of the Swedish death-metal band Dissection was heavily involved, if I recall correctly. When I was quite immersed in that style of music as a teen, I remember reading interviews with him and thinking he was clearly batsh*t crazy - all this stuff about the dark gods dissolving the entire Cosmos. Very Plutonian. He had previously served a prison sentence for the random slaying of an Algerian man, and killed himself in 2006.

As I recently spoke to researcher William Ramsey for a podcast about this topic, something also struck me as being very reminiscent of the Order of Nine Angles, a genuinely bizarre and astonishingly influential Satanist group with links to neo-Nazism, Islamism, and various murders and terrorist attacks from the 90s up to the recent past. Sure enough, according to an article on the Spiritual Life website, "the MLO incorporated elements from the Order of Nine Angles, the Illuminates of Thanateros and Qliphothic Kabbalah." (https://slife.org/theistic-satanism/)

With all that in mind, it's interesting to hear that progressives are also getting into the MLO. Satanism seems to be an area where the extreme-right and the woke-left overlap...
