The last day of the ritual as it had been initially conceived. With the trek to seattle, things took an altered turn.
So suitably, this day represents a pretty good mini climax of many of the established themes so far.
Our revelatory double header starts with some contemplation of how you ‘know’ a holy guardian angel [...]
Augoeides Day 19: The Shadow Knows…
Augoeides Day 17-18: How to turn on a dime
My christmas present to you: an object lesson in how little ‘experience’ can be worth sometimes, in regulating the ups and downs of esoteric work.
first we have an almost quaint bit of optimism and certitude as we contemplate ending the ritual on a high note.

Augoeides Day 16: The Mask of Bones
Here is where we fill out our vision, and the description of the denizens thereof. This image is of kendo helmet, and it’s not what I saw, but it will help you understand what I did see, if that makes any sense.
A choir of angels, or maybe the cenobites. Or maybe both.
In retrospect this may end [...]
Augoeides: the mutter of invention
So continuing, another snapshot of where my head is at right now.
It’ll make more sense if you realise that I’ve got about ten podcasts ahead of what you’ve heard thus far. notice some more rigour in thinking about my finances and work. Some health related stuff as I wrap up the extremities of the ritual, [...]
Augoeides Day 15: Totality Symbols
There’s a fair bit of imagery to unpack from our nearly-abortive experiment from the night before, and we start with this interesting squiggle.
In passing we deal with sigil magick, carl jung, symbolic alchemy, the caduceus, seraphim, and suchlike.
…and then it gets really weird.

Augoeides Day 14: until the end of the night
Well, we’re back from our mini summit of the pacific northwest occult blogosphere. And so in turn we come to the chronicle of one my stunts-within-the-stunt that is the Invocation of the HGA. ( My new favorite joke is that I am striving to be the David Blaine of occultism )
The mixed results, and [...]
Augoeides Day 13: a single thread
Well, here’s
where we dip fully into some of the material which I came across, by pure accident, a day or two after recording this, in the video I shared earlier.
So: a nice neo-platonic rap on the life lived for essence, the Good, the True, the Beautiful, following your chosen virtues up the trunk of the [...]
… to tide thee over
a new round of podcasts starts today or tomorrow, I think. they’ve all been recorded and nothing has been missed. We’ll pickup exactly where we left off.
In the meanwhile, enjoy this( via trapped in matter ). I certainly did, and keep it in mind, for certain aspects of what ends up getting talked about in [...]
Augoeides Day 12: the human problem
.
…and we pick up exactly where we left off, as promised. You’ll be running a few days behind me, ( about a week actually) but I doubt anyone’s hearts will break from the suspense just yet.
As we resume, we have some retrenchment, renewed resolution, and the real issue behind the whole thing, from macrocosm to microcosm
Direct [...]
Augoeides : Until the Final Iteration
This will be somewhat out of sequence with the podcasts, kind of running alongside that. A few thought experiments that work better as text.
I just realised I hadn’t updated my goals list lately, and I’ve been inspired by the Laboritarian’s protestant work ethic to do so.
Partly it’s that sense of being locked in that’s the [...]
