The Hermit Crab

“Remember that all acts of love and pleasure are rituals, must be rituals.”. - Aleister Crowley

In my mind and as a practice, a ritual magician adapts the works of those that came before hir so that their meditations become personally powerful and deeply spiritual.  You know that you have achieved this when something as mundane as coloring cards become a form of prayer and communion.

I have a job as a paranormal tour guide at the Trans Allegheny Lunatic Asylum.  I’ve had the job about a year and half as of the date of this post.  I took the job on the hopes that I’d have a chance to observe and document the activity of “local spirits”.  I have not been disappointed.  Over an eight month span I’ve been able to document 192 paranormal events reported by coworkers and guests.
