There is a running joke among many occultists about the so-called internet kids, an eclectic group of less experienced magickians who boast strong ties to pop culture. Suffering from some form of retrograde amnesia the ever judgemental wizards from Generation Hex seem to forget that back in the early 2000's they themselves were the new … Continue reading Internet Kids

My Vulpine Voice
Welcome to The Vulpine Voice, a subtly distinct area of my online portfolio that carries a vitally important purpose. The idea of this section is to provide a platform for all of the opinions and personal observations that might not make it into fully fledged essays. That means that I can post updates far more … Continue reading My Vulpine Voice
Esoteric Accelerationist Manifesto
This unapologetically adversarial article will no doubt prove highly divisive, and Five of Swords Esoteric Magazine should be applauded for accepting a submission that larger publications would likely never touch. As for why this manifesto even exists, it is the result of witnessing decades of both stagnation and cannibalisation within the Occult and Neopagan movements. … Continue reading Esoteric Accelerationist Manifesto
The Subtle Sigil
My second article to feature in Five of Swords Esoteric Magazine is an exploration of the procedural dogma that plagues sigil creation in the post chaos era. Offered alongside the work of a number of other bleeding edge occult authors for free in PDF format via social media platforms around the start of October 2019, … Continue reading The Subtle Sigil
Remembering David Farrant
In truth I take no pleasure in writing obituaries despite my more necromantic interests placing me in the perfect position to do so. To my mind every death among the pitifully few people who fully embody the heart and soul of modern magick stands as a massive loss to our wider movement, as well as … Continue reading Remembering David Farrant

Designed to showcase some of the more advanced ideas within the modern occult diaspora, this article was actually right at the front … Continue reading A Current Meme
Approaching Lilith
The following article is the second of a two part series I penned on the dark goddess Lilith for Spiral Nature, seen by many as the premiere outlet for occulture in the digital age, which went live in September 2018. Approaching Lilith was presented for subscribers only, while the much more general prequel Understanding Lilith … Continue reading Approaching Lilith
Understanding Lilith
The following article is the first of a two part series I penned on the dark goddess Lilith for Spiral Nature, seen by many as the premiere outlet for occulture in the digital age, which went live in September of 2018. Understanding Lilith was presented free to view, while the much more in depth sequel, … Continue reading Understanding Lilith
Pagan Spirits
This short but interesting little article marks my third successful submission to Pagan Dawn magazine, after Rebellious Kisses and Highgate Hindsight. Not only did this project give me free reign to discuss my interest in ghosts away from the graveyards that seem to dominate my more recent interactions with the discarnate, but also had the … Continue reading Pagan Spirits
Highgate Hindsight
This particular article is sure to generate more than its fair share of controversy. Indeed, Pagan Dawn deserves a lot of praise for publishing my take on what remains a very divisive topic relatively unedited in their Beltane 2018 edition. It had been a long term ambition of mine to have work featured in what … Continue reading Highgate Hindsight
