It’s a weird world we live in when we learn that squid can fly. It’s true. Photographic evidence here.
Earlier we asked which colour was the least magickal, here’s a link to an article where you can train yourself to see impossible colours. Nifty.
As it’s been a while since I last posted one of these, I have an impressive backlog of links, but we’ll begin gently with the following signal finds:
- Erik Davis was interviewed by Klint Finley for Technoccult. They discuss spirituality and his new book, Nomad Codes.
- Over on Enfolding.org, Phil Hine has scanned and made available essays he wrote for Chaos International, as well as an essay on sigilization for White Dwarf.
- The Eyeless Owl writes about “Spiritism and the Singularity“, discussing the transference of consciousness into machines, and its implications.
- Kalagni on Blue Flame Magick explains “The Secrets of the Summoning Circle“, its history, and why it’s more than just a simple protective barrier.
- On the Llewellyn JournalCaroline Dow offers “10 Tips for Giving Dynamite Tea Leaf Readings“. They’re good tips, and most of them can apply to any kind of divinitory reading, especially tarot.
- And Ryan Valentine gives good book porn in “Spring Devils and Giving Hands“.
Over on our sister site, SpiralNature.com, we have some new reviews:
- The Three Rays of Witchcraft, reviewed by Mike Gleason
- Everyday Sun Magic, reviewed by Ryan Valentine
- Disciple’s Guide to Ritual Magick, reviewed by Mike Gleason
- Sun of gOd, reviewed by Gesigewigu’s
- Where Do Demons Live?, reviewed by me
- Thomas Berry, Dreamer of the Earth, reviewed by Ryan Valentine
- Feast or Famine, reviewed by L.D. Taylor
- Victor Hugo’s Conversations with the Spirit World, reviewed by Mike Gleason
As always, if you come across anything nifty, please share it in the comments, or drop me a line, and we may post it in next week’s signal – along with attribution, of course!
