Spirits can be sent to work for or against another person knowingly or unknowingly by a skilled practitioner in these arts, personal protectionContinue reading “Regarding the influence of the dead upon the living and trickster spirits”
Death Is But A Doorway
In my work with the energy of death as a psychopomp, particularly my connection to the anthropomorphized personification of death known as Azrael I’ve been contemplating what the experience of being disincarnate feels like/looks like and what is and is not within the realm of experience and capabilities of being a deceased human being.
