I haven't seen much mention of Danil Yates' new project, the Occult Library website. Interesting idea, collating information about all books and editions thereof released by various occult publishers. The forthcoming page here has a list of at least some titles that are in production: https://www.occultlibrary.org/forthcoming
Worth a look, even if it's woefully misnamed.
>>
>>37815514
No worries. I'll always repost it occasionally, if only to keep the library circulating.

>>37816266
There's not much to say about it. Having a reference is all well and good, but I would think anyone mildly interested in hearing about a publisher's upcoming books would already be following that publisher directly without going through a third party site.

I haven't read it yet. But rites can often have substitutions, as long as the replacement still brings the relevant elements/virtues to the rite. So it would depend on why they are calling for a specific type of wood. I recently needed some sprigs of yew and a local varietal worked fine instead of the specific one the rite called for.

Budget and time permitting, you can also order a lot of that shit overseas from Etsy if it's absolutely essential for you to have a branch from the cornish dingleberry tree or whatever, but that should be a last resort. Using local stuff whenever possible is best.

I bet there's blackthorn in Mississippi, you just have to look. It was often used as a hedge plant in the US especially where livestock were kept but its been labeled as a nuisance species in recent years, for obvious reasons.

If you truly cannot find any, use honeylocust.

not that anon, but it seems very scarce in NA. the only place I could find selling blackthorn -products- was somewhere in Canada, and they'd stopped doing it because their own supply had run out and they hadn't been able to source any more.

I think he meant just find it in the wild
>>
>>37818677
That was what I was getting at, that it's scarce enough that even people trying to profit from it can't find much here. Blackthorn isn't native to north america (it's from yurop, where the cultus sabbati are)

The Cultus is based in California and has been for twenty years.


Blackthorn grows all over the PNW, along highways and in parking lots. Some sprouted in my flyover country garden and I have no clue how it got there. It is aggressive and tenacious.

Like I said, it’s targeted for removal because it has giant sharp spikes. You can find it all over, if you look hard enough.

So recently, I asked Lugus their thoughts on Judaism via divination.

They responded favorably.

Today, while watching this video:
https://youtu.be/SZKkiE2e1wc

I had a bit of a weird moment and had to pause it and immediately perform divination again, to ask Lugus their statement on usury and how I should relate to it.

Lugus implies usury is natural and should be engaged with.
Basically. The Romans were spot on in identifying them with Mercury.

any thoughts?

No, not really, they are fundamentally related in some ways sure but not at all dependent on each other. PHG says this in the introductions.
Also you can't really into Black Dragon just yet since the required ritual text for its beginning is still unpublished/incomplete.
>>
>>37818677
>>37818798
They are profiting from the surge of teen ticktok witches being unable or unwilling to walk into the woods and gather materia themselves, which within the act of doing is often half of the actual thing. It is rare, but not unavailable, it just will take some searching and getting to know the plants and your environment in your area, which, again, most are unwilling to actually undertake. Ordeal of overcoming matters. Ordering it is fully ineffectual, pretty much filtering yourself from any real contact and anything beyond proof of being another consoomer and not able to do any witchcraft. 100% better off with a local substitute. Honeylocust, not at all rare, has already been suggested. Maybe try look at WHY you are using Blackthorne rather than making a shopping list.

Well good luck with some of the theology without spending significant time with HU, SA, and HUA, especially HUA.

This is abjectly false. You’re not barred from anything just because your environment isn’t conducive to this or that species. While one should, for example, sun in ocotillo or similar if in the desert it doesn’t preclude you from getting some blackthorn to experiment with.


If we want to get into the why and wherefore of blackthorn not just historically but theologically we can but it, imho, gets into the specifics of the UK seasonal cycles which may not be applicable at all to your specific locations. The point is that folks should not just get familiar with their locations but also some of broad applicability of things as a cross correspondence and cross biome exercise. Nobody on earth is going to have immediate access to everything in the Viridarium, it works 360 individual species (yes the number matters) and you absolutely will have to order some of it.
>>
>>37822732
It's okay if you haven't actually read it. And, as noted, it is yet to be completed. But is stands on its own feet, as it is designed to, it's not the DBoE DLC.

Are the guy’s antics questionable? Yes. Do you need to larp as Sarah Lawless to get your sensible chuckle of the day about it here? Surely not.
>>
>>37822773
I'm saying if you think that ordering it off the internet, even if it the actual deal, which is not at all guaranteed or even very likely for some of this stuff, or applicable to your local biome and spiritual ecology, fulfills what is being asked of you in the work then you have not understood the assignment.
>>
>>37822777
I have the books mate, I know what you and moreover I am talking about. My opinions are my own and I think folks get the best mileage from understanding WHY you’re doing things in HU and HUA.

It’s a DB dlc, meaning you should ideally have gotten into something that approximates endgame DB to fully enjoy it. Just because you can do Lonesome Road at level 1 doesn’t inherently mean it’s a good idea.

Yes, you can use local replacements. Do your best to meet the requirements, but your first year is never going to be perfect. Order what you have to.

Folks also forget this is a four person system, and there'd be a division of labor in the preparation of the rites. People need to make provisions for being the sole person responsible for everything if running it solo, especially without a mentor.

I need some help, and I decided to come here to ask my fellow anons for advice. I've falling into "the Dark Night of the Soul" and... it is terrifying me. My thoughts are just going to this pervasive fear that in death we're just going to be trapped in an eternal isolated dream where nothing is real. It feels silly to say that outloud, but my brain just can't stop dwelling on this fear of being disconnected from others and a sheer terror of becoming truly isolated and alone in death. I think I'd rather accept oblivion over that, but it terrifies me to imagine that I'll just be trapped in some isolated room in my head and be divorced from the rest of the world.

Grow up. Stop reading meme content. Stop building metaphysics from Poastes on imageboards and infographics. You are alive, which entails that sometime, sooner or later, you're going to die, and it will probably hurt. Just because we live in a culture that does everything in its power to elide this fact, doesn't mean we have to cave in to nihilism, terror, and denial. Expand your horizons, which doesn't mean "more denial". Get well read on the ancient and cross cultural wisdom regarding death. You will have to take that journey alone, but you don't have to prepare alone, and schizoposting on his, x, lit, or any other board, doesn't count as prep.

Good luck.

>>37850732
13 day uncrossing bath routine. Psalms 37 and/or 51. Get up before sunrise. Do the thing. Get rid of some bath water at the crossroads. Pray to God to take away all your crossed conditions. Throw in some Lord's Prayer, Hail Mary and Prayer to Saint Michael before and after your bath.
>>
>>37850751
Throw in some hyssop in the bath water if you want to go with the "purge me with hyssop and I shall be clean", if you want. Some people incorporate candle work into this. Like, walking through 2 lit candles when walking into the bath, and then blowing them out when walking out. There's all kinds of ways people add extra bits to this, but the key parts are the psalms, the bath, and throwing out the water at a crossroads.
>>
>>37836828
That' quite a wide topic ranging from planetary magic, to jinn evocation, to magic squares, to Islamic ruqya. And while there's aspects of Arabic magic that aren't Islamic, the Arabs have been Muslim for long enough that you'd find Quranic verses in use for quite a lot of stuff alongside bits of Jewish godnames and "asma suryani". This would go a lot easier if you're already (somewhat) Muslim and can read and write Arabic for charms and talismans, etc.
