Sfinga and Key discuss an intriguing early modern vernacular grimoire first published and analyzed by Dr. Frank Klaassen. In reviewing its techniques, orations, and symbols (as well as its famous pentacle of the Apocalyptic Christ), the Dragon and Owl also consider the text's utility as a magical manual and its implied teachings from within its instructions.

Traditionally trained conjurer, card reader, and herbalist Dr. Finch joins the show for a lush and evocative discussion on glamour, power, and sovereignty. Our conversation begins with her latest project, being an exploration of magical cosmetics born of her deep knowledge of rootwork. We quickly sprawl out to discuss the many facets of sorcerous agency in our lives, and consider some cornerstones of practice: from seducing Lady Luck to your side to radically embracing your power (and "cringe"!) to live authentically in line with your magic.

The gang workshops the practical steps and philosophies behind deriving rituals and recipes from a diagnostic divination. From narrowing the scope aggressively by means of self-imposed limitations to allowing different spirits to collaborate on co-creating a solution to a problem, the Dragon and Owl cover a medley of case studies and their mediating factors for success.
