Planetary Magic: Practice, Timing, and Essential Dignities
Planetary Magic: The Power of the Planets is about the different methods of working with the planets, especially in connecting with the power of the planets. In order to tap into the planets it is wise to know what you looking for in a planet as a whole or how tap into its intelligences. This is always going to vital for planetary magic. I make a distinction between the grimoire tradition and the astrological tradition. I go briefly into the orphic hymns, essential dignities, and going to what to look for in each electional timing of the planet.

Astrological Magic Primer: Traditional Western Astrology 101
Hello! in this video I talk about the basics of astrological magic predating the 1800s. This is the astrological magic used to make talismans, contact spirits, and etc. It was essentially the magic of the grimoires and astrological magic tradition. I dive a bit into Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa, Marsilio Ficino, the Orphic Hymns, and etc. I go into emanationism as well. Plato is an author who deeper influenced this sort of magic generations later from his Timaeus. But this video is geared to bring you the beginning of the understanding of traditional astrological magic found in the west.

Magical Cleansing and Purification Basics
In Magical Cleansing and Purification Basics I cover basic cleansing methods in three categories. These are the ones that I have found useful over the years. I hope these are useful for you too.
Purification and Cleansings Definitions:
Purification is the act of making oneself free from evil or guilt, but this can also be something free from any contamination or foreign elements.
A cleansing is also an act of removal from any debilitating elements in our spirit.
Religious Purifications
There are different types of purification: religious, ritual, folk
The state of the soul is important to classical magic.
The Greeks believed that the closer to God we became the more we were ascended in Greek Philosophy in the Platonic traditions, like Neoplatonism.
Catholics have a purification in the state of grace. There are two states of grace:
Actual grace gives the person to act according to the will of God.
Sanctifying grace allows us to share his life and love.
In some cases, we find in the grimoire tradition and Neoplatonic traditions that the state of the souls was more important than charging the seal, sigil or image.
Prayer and confession were used in ritual to summon the intelligences and to have them imbue their essence into talisman.
