Vodou, Vodoun, Vudu, and Voodoo has captivated the imaginations of Americans for centuries. Everyone is familiar with New Orleans Voodoo and its images of black candles, chicken’s feet, and skulls meant to invoke fear and awe in outsiders. Voodoo as practiced in the United States has become an amalgam of witchcraft, necromancy, rootwork, conjure, and a catch-all word for any type of magic that seems dark and ominous. In the Caribbean, however, Voodoo is spelled Vodou and is practiced as an African Traditional Religion (ATR).

Wilson mapped human consciousness as an evolving system with eight distinct circuits, from basic survival programming to cosmic ...

In modern witchcraft, a Chaos Witch is a practitioner of Chaos Magic, a dynamic and flexible magical practice that emerged in the late 20th century. This path stands out because it completely rejects the rigid structures and dogmas found in more traditional forms of magic. The core principle of Chaos Magic is viewing belief as a tool. Practitioners will temporarily adopt different belief systems—and the psychological power they hold—to achieve a desired result, discarding them once they are no longer useful. The focus is entirely on achieving tangible results rather than adhering to any...

Many men today are struggling with a loss of identity, which often leads them back to church. They hope a priest or pastor will provide the direction they lack—telling them how to be a man and how to live their lives.

They scroll through TikTok and X, searching for a connection with others who feel the same way. I used to be one of those men, and I also had the knee-jerk reaction to return to church. However, the church ...
