Observe Differently

Stealth magick can only be fully understood alongside it’s counterpart, divination, because they are flip sides of the same coin. The patterns a diviner uses to foresee events are the camouflage being used in stealth magic. Seeing less and seeing more. Yes, and it doesn’t matter who or what is looking at the patterns. It…

Hiding From The Devil

There have been uses of stealth magick in every culture from prayers to meditations, to ritual dances to carrying fetish objects, but they all work in the same way.

Stealth Magick

The first stealth magick was practiced by tribal hunters. This was undertaken well before the invention of anything like armour.

Wonder’s Companion Sword

I will draw from Miyamoto Musashi’s work for a bit here. The Book of Five Rings. The Book of Five Rings is about swords and the use of the sword, and it is also about life and the use of the soul. Specifically, the use we call wonder. Wonder is the sword. It can take…

Wonder Is Magic

Insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result? Insanity is a sane response to an insane situation, but the situation was insane because there was no wonder. We have a quote on our calendar right now from a Native American chieftain. “It’s not because things are difficult that we dare not venture. It’s…
