Pressing forward with The Last Unicorn next week. We’ll go from Ch. VII-X (pp. 95-167). Remember to scroll down and click ‘PDF’ under ‘Download Options’ to get the file. See ya!

This week we’re looking at Peter S. Beagle’s The Last Unicorn, beginning with chapters I-VI (pp. 1-94). Don’t let the page count scare you, it goes down easy. I also can’t link directly to the file this week, so just scroll down a bit on the archive.org page and click ‘PDF’ under ‘Download Options’. See ya Wednesday!

We spend one more week with Sfinga and her crew! This time, we will discuss the ‘Scrying the Spirits’ podcast episode.

Bonus reading: The “Sisterhood of the Travelling Donkey.”

This week, we hear again from contemporary practitioner Sfinga – the one who goaded us into full tilt Egg-Mania last September – and her sapient brethren, Salt and Key. This time it’s an audio adventure: “So You Think You Can Ward.” The three magi discuss ways of judging whether one’s magic is working. They talk a lot about the experience of doing magic, enmeshed as it is in Weird Causation. They show themselves earnest and ambitious, and they describe an interesting spectrum of methods, in your Grangle’s humble opinion.

Jot down a few points of interest and a few questions for the group?

May you be abundantly blessed!

This coming Wednesday, we discuss the exciting conclusion of The Man Who Was Thursday, chapters XI (“The Criminals Chase the Police”) – XV (“The Accuser”), pp. 185-267.

Another session of Chesterton next time! The Man Who Was Thursday, chapters VI (“The Exposure”) – X (“The Duel”), pp. 83-184.

This week, we’ll begin G.K. Chesterton’s The Man Who Was Thursday. Go through Chapter V (pp. 1-82) — seems like a lot but it reads easy.

This week, Sorcerix Helios brings us Carl Jung’s “Seven Sermons to the Dead” (pp. 44-58).

Optional reading for context:

On Carl Jung; On the Red Book

Seems like we might explore the Lovecraft mythos for a while. Let’s start with Phil Hine’s Pseudonomicon. It’s not long, so we’ll just read the whole thing this week.

Turning back to Spare this week with The Book of Pleasure (pp. 27-150). Try and read it all but don’t be discouraged from coming if you aren’t able to. Also, two introductions to Spare by Kenneth Grant: one more biographical (pp. 155-159), the other more philosophical. Take your pick.
