A Magical Bastard is either fatherless – self-created – or has more fathers than they can decently acknowledge. In this group we will collaborate to interpret magical texts that have been formative for each member, and to integrate theory with experience. We will respect one another’s experiences, in a world that still claims (with decreasing plausibility) to reject magic itself. By these means we will attempt to teach one another the unknowable, and maybe score diamond grills and gold hubcaps along the way.
We welcome anyone who loves magic and the art of conversation, regardless of their tradition or experience level. There will probably be a lot of Thelemites in the group, but these sorts of hardships must be borne. Please do read the week’s text, if you are coming! Our plan is to always provide a free online copy.
We convene weekly on Wednesdays (Mercury’s day) from 7:30-9:30 PM at The Long Haul, 3124 Shattuck Ave, in Berkeley. Check below for each week’s texts – and may they bring you joy and power!

The bastard in me honors the bastard in you.
