Multitudes of Spirits, Unverified Personal Gnosis, and Respect
I hope you have been doing well, my dearest readers. Over here, it’s way too fucking hot. As some of you may know, I live in a home built in the 1870s, and therefore we have no central AC. Instead, we have a portable AC unit that stays in the room we sleep in, and…

Magic With Me: Clow Sorcery Part Six
Welcome back my Dear Readers, We’re taking a break from our regularly scheduled Nonsense to get back on some of the Clow Sorcery Series. It’s been a while, hasn’t it? I have found that having an actual, factual, day job does take up a considerable amount of time. So, with suitable gnashing of the teeth,…

Magic With Me : Clow Sorcery Part Five
Goodness gracious. The Clow Cards never cease to surprise me with what they want. It’s been a while since I included a journal entry about my Clow Sorcery journey on here. How fitting is it that I am eagerly awaiting the first signs of spring and I am writing about The Earthy card? As per…

Drawing the Clow: The Cloud
For some unknowable reason, I thought I had already posted about this subject. And It think I had intended to post it at the very beginning of this blog. But, either I got side-tracked or I was hemming and hawing over whether or not this was something too personal for me to post. In the end,…

Magic With Me : Clow Sorcery Part Four
Sometimes it feels odd to ask: but you have to. Have you ever gotten beaten up by a spirit before? Because The Snow was not playing around with me. She beat me up and stole my lunch money. This was the spirit thus far that had the strongest and most established personality of all, and…

Magic With Me: Clow Sorcery Part Three
Those of you who have been following along with my Magic With Me Series might have been thinking ‘holy shit, when is this lady going to make some progress?’ Well, the answer to that is a bit complicated. As you may have surmised, I am still working on my Quest for The Maze. But, at…

Magic With Me : Clow Sorcery Part Two
It’s been a while since my first installment of the Clow Sorcery ‘Magic with Me’ series. It took a while, since I was preoccupied with graduate school. But, I did succeed in capturing ‘The Song.’ That means it’s time to discuss my current quest: The Maze. The Maze Oh boy. Sometimes the quests I have…

Magic With Me: Clow Card Frame Development
Earlier in this blog, I discussed the differences in borders between the Clow Cards, Sakura Cards, and Clear Cards. After a bit of trial (ok, a bunch of trail) and slow development, I finally have a working draft for the borders of the cards for my own Clow Sorcery purposes. Sun, Moon, Star, and Void…

Card Captor Sakura : Magic Circles and Card Backgrounds
Within the Card Captor Sakura (CCS) Geekomantic Paradigm, every magician has their own magic circle. Those magic circles both describe the magician’s worldview and information about their personal magical alignments. Rune S. Emmerson gets into alignments further in his book. So I don’t feel the need to go into it very far. Generally, there are…

Magic With Me : Clow Sorcery Part One
It’s not common for Geekomancers to find ready-made paradigms to work with. But, fellow Geekomancer Rune S. Emmerson has already created and self-published a book on using Clow Cards from the Card Captor Sakura manga and anime. He has it available for a small donation, and has a discord server for Clow practitioners to talk…
