The Mysteries of BritainIt's getting on for midnight as I type this, so here we go with a new Magic Monday. This week's classic of Western occultism is The Mysteries of Britain by Lewis Spence. Spence was both an occultist and a first-rate scholar, who wrote solid volumes on Mexican mythology and equally solid volumes on the legend of Atlantis. A Scotsman active in plenty of corners of the British occult scene of his time, he had connections with a variety of Druid organizations, and wrote several books on Druid Revival spirituality, of which this is probably the best; his folklore book The Minor Traditions of British Mythology, while it's not strictly speaking a work of occultism, is practically required reading if you're interested in British elves, goblins, and spirits. 

Ask me anything about occultism and I'll do my best to answer it. Any question received by midnight Monday Eastern time will get an answer. 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 here.

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 below 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.

With that said, have at it! 

***This Magic Monday is now closed -- and yes, that means you.  See you next week!***
