By Christopher Penczak, edited by Tina Whittle Not that long ago, I was not an advocate of online magick. Classes? Sure. But the actual doing of magick? No. Despite being a full-time Witch immersed in writing, philosophy, and theology, I have a Bachelor of Music Performance with a minor in Music Business.

We have just passed through a massive amount of energy with the solar eclipse in the middle of December, and the big conjunction with Jupiter and Saturn at Midwinter. But, the ride is not over yet. We still have a strong and special full Moon on the 29th of December and a New Year to celebrate. So let´s take a look at what the stars has in store for us Read More...
In the midst of one of the most challenging years in memory, the Capricorn Ministry would like to spotlight the extraordinary work of volunteer Mary Paliechesky in southern California. Mary is a stalwart and dedicated volunteer in the pen pal program, supporting a number of incarcerated pen pals in their spiritual journeys.

By Christopher Penczak, edited by Tina Whittle Not that long ago, I was not an advocate of online magick. Classes? Sure. But the actual doing of magick? No. I had a friend who early on was deeply immersed in online rituals with an internet coven, and perhaps my assessment had a lot to do with that particular person, but I didn’t see a lot of evolutionary result there.

A river of energy is about to sweep all over us. The December events will culminate at Midwinter on the 21st of December, when Jupiter and Saturn will conjunct and join each other like one big star Read More...
By Christopher Penczak, edited by Tina Whittle Occultism usually marks development and evolution in a series of stages. Witches and Magicians have degrees of initiation with modern practitioners drawing much of their systems from Freemasons. We have the Descent of the Underworld, the Tree of Life, the Hero’s Journey, astrological cycles, and the stages of alchemy. They occur in both formal initiation rituals and the stuff of life, the one true initiation ever challenging us to go Read More...

by Christopher Penczak Among Old World Witches, we talk about Witch’s Honor. I had an occultist friend who said the Witch’s Honor gesture from the popular television show Bewitched was a real thing, at least among the California lines of Craft, before the TV show hit the airwaves. Endora would look you in the eye, then place the index finger of her right hand beneath her right eye and middle finger beneath her left to indicate the Read More...
