    Luxa https://linktr.ee/LuxaStrata welcomes Jason of Ecstatic Agendas https://ecstaticagendas.com/blog/ to discuss the journey with grimoire work and the magical retirement they took to get into the Solar veneration (written about beautifully in the piece ‘On Solar Gods and Inner Light’ the publication, ‘Barbarus Tongues’). We’ll touch on what a magical retirement is and why people take them as well as the Solar connections in the Voces magicae found in the Headless Rite and much more!

  2. 112. Gender and the Magician’s Voice w/ Zoë Wolters of Ambigram Therapy

    Episode 112

    Show notes

    Luxa https://linktr.ee/LuxaStrata welcomes Zoë Wolters from Ambigram Therapy https://www.ambigramtherapy.com/ (who offers gender affirming voice training and can also assist with things like accents or exploring new areas of the voice) to unpack the ways that the body and mind work together when singing, speaking, intoning barbarous names etc. How is “Mom Voice” achieved, technically speaking? Should we adjust our larynx position to achieve different pitch? What is “head voice” and “chest voice”? All this and much more, including the dangers of peppermint and the word, “Ambigram”!

    Luxa also shares a new track from It Cometh’s new album, House of Midnight https://itcometh.bandcamp.com/album/house-of-midnight and updates about The Green Mushroom Project https://greenmushroomproject.com/ and Void House- creating consent centered magical spaces for conducting group work both in person and online, investigating the magical and alchemical properties of consent, and providing consent education to magically inclined people.

  9. 105.5.5. Magic & Mental Health: Boundaries & Psychic Self Defense Pt. 2

    Show notes

    Luxa https://linktr.ee/LuxaStrata hosts a panel of magic practitioners to discuss navigating issues related to mental health in one’s magical practice.

    Questions the panel will address: how do we define and delineate boundaries in our magical work and interpersonal lives? Is there intersection between how you protect yourself from potentially unhelpful magical forces and potentially unhelpful people? What are some experiences in this area others might find useful to hear about? How do we define psychic self defense? How do we practice it? What are some experiences or tips we'd share?

    Luxa also shares an update about The Green Mushroom Project https://greenmushroomproject.com/ and Void House- creating consent centered magical spaces for conducting group work both in person and online, investigating the magical and alchemical properties of consent, and providing consent education to magically inclined people.

  16. 101.5 Magic & Mental Health: Navigating Desire Bonus

    Show notes

    Luxa https://linktr.ee/LuxaStrata hosts a panel of magic practitioners to discuss navigating issues related to mental health in one’s magical practice. For this panel discussion, we address the following questions. How do we navigate the relationship between doing magic for things we desire in healthy ways (and how do we define this) vs. things we might desire that would be unhelpful for us, or which might travel into the territory of spiritual bypassing? What barriers surrounding the concept of desire have we had to move through in our work? What experiences would we share?Thanks to panel guests Clodius, Zarpauluk, Catalyst and Jour de SadalsuudReferenced in today’s episode: Zarpauluk’s work https://paraimperium.wordpress.com/ https://www.theduckwebcomics.com/Joanna_Ghost_Hunter/The Tibetan Book of the Dead The Big Book of Candle Magic - Jacki Smith Conversations on Citizenship and Person-Centered Work - John O’Brien & Carol BlessingThanks to Sad Black Lab for the use of their song, "Steps" https://youtu.be/rJIg__DK2X8?si=WE9aCcU6lpMIISpMhttps://youtu.be/WYmgmgtjCpQ?si=MQ5B-93ib6yvK8f3https://open.spotify.com/track/0lqCwUEgiryqT2G8QMBgRt?si=r5t5OIaGT7yzB6vn-QOZiw&context=spotify%3Aalbum%3A2ccTag8BLNcMa9pQfHdtxSThanks for listening to the Lux Occult Podcast!

    Episode 101

    Show notes

    Marcella Kroll https://www.marcellakroll.com/ , author of Healing the Liminal, joins Luxa https://linktr.ee/LuxaStrata to talk about what it means to exist in, navigate and heal liminality, as well as about discovering ways to connect with unknown ancestors and lost family members through meditative, artistic and magical practices.

    Topics discussed include the Family Tree exercise outlined in Healing the Liminal which spurred Marcella’s discovery of several lost ancestors and family members. The concept of Dragon Energy and how differently it can express itself in various contexts. How to recognize and avoid Toxic Empathy, authenticity and autistic masking, and the Key as a magical symbol.

    What if some of our Ancestors have connections to other worlds and the liminality of outer space? Marcella shares about being an experiencer and how that impacted what she ultimately decided to share in the book.

    Luxa shares an update about The Green Mushroom Project https://greenmushroomproject.com/ and Void House- creating consent forward magical spaces for conducting group work both in person and online, investigating the magical and alchemical properties of consent, and providing consent education to magically inclined people.
