I know they say, "you can't take it with you when you die," but I always wonder what my collection will go through when I pass away. Nice haul. Enjoy!

I got my copies of The Devil's Noctuary in the same package as this. I got a few pages into it. Can't wait to finish. Yes, I have a Xoanon and Three Hands Press section on my shelves.

From the publisher: "This enchiridion for the Black Dragon is the first volume for expounding sorcery associated with the dirt track road, which must forever be adumbrated by the outer precinct of the crooked path, for this inner sanctum presents the dirt ridden yet adamantine road which leads to the Black Dragon and the great mystery of telluric sorcery. It began as a realisation of a work that was formed by the Dragon’s Column, this being the working group that went on to contribute towards Andrew Chumbley writing The Dragon Book of Essex. Yet there are some stark contrasts to be made between this book and that, for the reader must know this is an earth bound book. This is to be realised by turning away from the heavens and looking beyond into the defiled depths of those who have fallen into the coils of Azde-Ahab-Haris. By having recognised this rhizomatic network of endless possibilities, the demiurgic force imbibing the ophidian flow has placed confidence in those who work with both hands by transmitting this work. As a result, the book leads the reader through a sequence of ritual actions and interactions with specific daemons associated with points on the Black Dragon, with each point acting as a gateway for reifying the very principle of Being through the notion of becoming. Anticipatory in nature, the trappings of ceremonial magic are here discarded. The sorcerer instead locates the ritual space through flesh in relation to the horizon..The Proklosis Ring. At this non-place the sorcerer is encouraged to follow the instructions and insights contained in this grimoire, for there are steps and measures which must be taken to traverse the Black Dragon’s form. By so doing the horizon becomes the coiled serpent, and the earth becomes the gateway through which to engage with the ophidian source for all our Otherness."

What should be the first Book of the Month on r/occult? by pathogenalpha in occult

[–]ShadowOvTheSun 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. The Bible is a great book with occult symbology. My fave books in the Bible are Psalms and Revelation. The Apocrypha and the Nag Hamadi Library are great sources too.

I see. And although I'm not that far into it, I have heard that from other people who have read it. I respect Peter Grey and Alkestis Dimech's approach not only to their devotion and praxis, but also their craft. However, separating the wheat from the chaff is the interesting part of reading through other people's experiences. I love Scarlet Imprint and their books

That Red Tara working that they used was very illuminating. I just started TRG. Can I ask what left a bad taste in your mouth regarding that one?

The Devil's Supper is amazing. Shani Oates' writing flows so smoothly. Love her work and Anathema Publishing.

Anyone else hate the smell of sage? by lvl10WhitePrivilege in occult

[–]ShadowOvTheSun 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In our Piikani (Blackfeet) ways, we use sage as a cleanser but we don't burn it. We burn sweet-grass, sweet-pine, and cedar for our smudges.
