thinking out loud onscreen..

My husband wants us to put together an occult magazine and publish it through Lulu. We only need a maximum of 80 pages. Now, if I'm inspired, I could handily write 80 pages by myself, but the kicker is "if I'm inspired." I'm sitting here this morning thinking now would be the perfect time to start putting something together, but I can't get a clear idea of what to write about.

I had it in mind to write about the Naples Arrangement, because it's a fascinating concept that many people aren't aware of. However, when I did a little research on it, I came to see that it requires a much better knowledge of the Kabbalah than I have. I don't believe I could write about it knowledgeably with any credibility. So now I'm back to square one, trying to come up with something to say.

The truth is, I'm not the one with the extensive occult knowledge acquired through years of study; that would be my husband. I'm more of an "intuitive" witch; I know what feels right in my gut, and I go with it. There is either logic, or there's bullshit, and I'm pretty good at seeing through the bullshit. I've always had an ability to cut through crap and find the essence of something. I only need to know what to apply it to in this case.

Ideas flopping through my mind: a scathing renunciation of the rede and the threefold law, a treatise on why and how fearless magick is empowering, how one's personal hangups and fears inhibit the success of magick, paring down the trappings of magick to get to what's important, and other thoughts. Right now, though, I'm getting drowsy. I got up early this morning and I think I'll snuggle on the couch with my little dog for awhile.
