    How about some photos of the scrolls? And of course I’m curious to know what magic these scrolls will create. Maybe you could offer examples?

    Definitely Sarah. I’m sketching the first lot of scrolls as we speak. As I start production I’ll show photos at each stage. And get together a list of all the scrolls in the lot + what they do, once it’s final!

    Drew,

    Congrats on getting your business started! I’ve been thinking a lot about old-world magical practice recently, and I’m excited to hear your far more expert perspective on it, especially with regards to the science behind it. I may even grab a few scrolls :)

    Best,
    -Trent

      Thanks Trent! I didn’t know it’s a subject you’re interested in. I’ll be writing a lot about this. And glad to hear you might like a scroll or two :)

        Well I collect interests like most people collect bottle caps. In addition to the hard right I’ve made recently into economics and politics, I’ve become fascinated by applied ritual and various branches of neopaganism. I’ll be checking back to see what you’ve written.

    I love that you said they’re ‘packed with ju-ju’. It made me laugh. Good luck with your new business!

    I am really looking forward to any scientific proof of magic that you have. Personnaly, I find myself skeptical of magic, and the fact that you’ve looked into it scientifically is very interesting. Congratulations on your business. I will continue to follow you here and on rogue priest.

      I’m also quite skeptical. That is itself going to be the topic of some interesting articles. A lot of magicians really push the “well I totally believe it works” angle while sidestepping any actual call for evidence.

      Thanks for checking us out Mike and for your kind words.

    I am reading John Michael Greer’s book on geomancy & just getting into casting charts. Is that the sort you do?

      Yes, that’s exactly right. Though I don’t often do readings. Those same figures can be used in magical rituals, and will be the basis of the designs on the scrolls. I have a lot of respect for Greer although he does Christian style “ceremonial magick” which is quite different from what I do.
