World War Cthulhu: A Collection of Lovecraftian War Stories, Art by M. Wayne Miller

Officials warn to stay away from all beaches. Cthulhu nesting season is here.

caralho, eu devo ser muito idiota se pensei que aquela louca ficaria com essa louca aqui. o olhar fulminante dela disse tudo: acabou. acabou comigo aqui olhando pro vazio completamente chocada enquanto a mulher da minha vida caminhava a passos largos em direção contrária. ela sumiu na rua escura e eu sumi dentro de mim. eu poderia ter dito algo, poderia ter dito tudo que sinto por ela pra que ela decidisse ficar, entretanto, só congelei com o último toque quente e terno entre nós duas enquanto tentava formar frases pra dizer olhando naqueles olhos furiosos, mas ela já foi.

This is a great little book and deserves some recognition! It was published by amazon and written by Robert J. Horne. It’s really a book on traditional witchcraft, however Horne uses the term folk witchcraft. I see them as one and the same, however folk witchcraft as Horne presents it isn’t really tied to any one figure or geographic area. He draws on the techniques of Austin Osman Spare and Andrew Chumbley, which I really love! One of my favorite parts of the book is the beginning where the author gives explanations and suggestions for recommended reading; many of the formative texts of modern traditional witchcraft. The book is an enjoyable read, and presents the information succinctly. Many writings on traditional witchcraft are known for their often overly fancy language. This work is a great introduction to the foundations of a folkloric practice. #folkwitchcraft #traditionalwitchcraft #solitarypractice #oldones #hornedgod #naturespirits #landspoirits #ancestorwork #folklore #folkpractice https://www.instagram.com/p/CK9Uis3H28M/?igshid=pyiwtj287hap

Excerpt from "Chapter 33: Kenneth Grant and the Typhonian Tradition" by Henrik Bogdan, found in _The Occult World_, edited by Christopher Partridge --- "The Mauve Zone, a key-concept in Grant's system...is related to a practical formula of dream control evolved by Grant during the years 1955-62.... In his writings, Grant repeatedly stresses the importance of establishing contact with higher beings for the spiritual evolution of the practitioner, but also for the future of mankind." [Grant draws on traditional esoteric concepts, UFO-related materials, and the Old Ones of Lovecraftian lore to help explain what these entities are.] "Whereas [Aleister] Crowley adopted an agnostic approach to the nature of the entities...Grant argues theat they are actual entities existing outside of man's consciousness although they are to be accssed through a mental state which Grant calls the Mauve Zone." [Note: the image above is of Grant's own writings about the Mauve Zone, not _The Occult World_, quoted above. Plus, Crowley adjusted his own beliefs later in his life to accept the ‘realness’ of these entities. *Thanks to Marco Visconti for clarifying that last point!*]
