Edward Kelley was the first article I edited on wikipedia in 2003 (I've been on wikipedia for a bit) . My great great grand aunt was reputedly a powerful witch. She got swindled in a land deal and made the land in question fallow. Apparently to this day nothing grows on it.

My own experiences for a large part I will only talk about in general terms, allusively or both. I do supplemental introductions later. Here are a few more hashtags:

Sunday March 26th 2023:

Hexagram 51
Zhèn, Shock

Thunder over Thunder

Initial line: The shock comes: fright fright. After that laughter and talk: shriek shriek. Auspicious.

Have spent the last few days investigating tarot and I Ching in depth for the first time & it’s absolutely *fascinating*. I always steered clear of anything labelled divination because I thought it was just fanciful fortune-telling— I’ve never been so happy to be completely wrong!

I love how the symbolism & archetypes of and the daoist-confucian philosophy and ethos of change in the serve to stimulate creative thinking that’s in large part outside our usual binary logic circuits.

Hello! New instance, new :dandelion:
I've been exploring the fediverse for about a year and I've settled on how I want to use it: I'm starting fresh here to focus on magic :_candleb:

I'm mostly into , Ancient magical techniques and cosmology, narrative forms of magic ( as well as modern takes: by Aidan Wachter is probably the single most influential book in my practice), and (, , , and I've started dabbling with the as a total dilettante). I'm also studying formally as one pathway into what you might call

Some of my ongoing magical projects include crafting a personal ritual year and taking stock of the past few years' worth of experiments to decide on my next big step: that's my focus in 2023.

Talk to you soon and thanks for having me!

Like I said earlier, the 16 bead method has identical probabilities to the yarrow stalks, it is just quicker and more convenient

My favorite book of interpretations is The Portable Dragon: The Western Man's Guide to the I Ching Paperback – by R. G. H. Siu

Just for fun, I once constructed and programmed a little electronic gizmo that would cast the I Ching, using the 16 bead method. Red lines are moving lines, green are ordinary lines.

The original method of consulting the I Ching was a tedious exercise with yarrow stalks. But there exists a simpler method using 16 beads which has the same mathematical probability as the yarrow.

Ah! I Ching with moving lines.

My favorite book of interpretations is The Portable Dragon: The Western Man's Guide to the I Ching Paperback – by R. G. H. Siu
It has the traditional Chinese interpretations, but in addition it has them explained using quotations from Western literature. Citations from everyone from Epictetus to Thomas Wolfe, A.A. Milne to Machiavelli, Jane Austen to Tachibana Akemi. Quite valuable to a TTRPG game master.

Setting the intention: Brave Writing uses a line prompt and a timed writing session to stoke your creative energy. I am going to challenge myself to do a session, casting an hexagram as a starting point, at least 4 times a week until the New Year.
Pick a line, set the timer for 7 minutes, and just keep that pen moving.

Hexagram 64 of the Yi was what I received to summarize Elon Musk. He's a fool and will not change, just continue embarrassing himself.

...The young fox nearly crosses and wets its tail.
Nothing profitable.

And from my own Forest of Changes Yi Jing:

The charioteer has no pants,
Going naked out the gates.
The children laugh,
The noble suffers a disaster.
