Magical Timing

And but one word with one of us? couple it with
something; make it a word and a blow.
- William Shakespeare, Romeo and Juliet

There seems little point in practicing magic unless you want to do at least a few extraordinary things with this incarnation.
-Peter J Carroll, The Octavo

Like “love,” “hope” is one of those ridiculously disproportional words that by all rights should be a lot longer.
- Jim Butcher, Turn Coat

The starry-eyed idealists of today have submerged their critical faculties beneath a tidal wave of slop marketed by those old hippies who now sell a user-friendly dilution of their original enlightenment.
-Peter J Caroll, Psybermagick

Love looks not with the eyes, but with the mind,
And therefore is winged Cupid painted blind.
- William Shakespeare, A Midsummer Night's Dream

Behind the clock back there you know
At the four winds bar
- Blue Öyster Cult, Astronomy

Offering's a complicated business.
- Jake Stratton-Kent

Another related point is that theological eclecticism to the tune of replacing this structure with pagan deities so it appeals to personal taste does the ritualist no favours as it undermines their ability to leverage a power dynamic that is better understood and has been employed countless times.
- Julio Cesar Ody, Magister Officiorum

Only fluffy bunnies need apply.
- Jake Stratton-Kent

"If you want the win, stay civil and stand in your invincibility."

- Gordon White, Rune Soup

You are certainly free to join whatever nineteenth-century swingers club masquerading as a magical order you like, but do it on your own time.
- Gordon White, The Chaos Protocols: Magical Techniques for Navigating the New Economic Reality

It took me more than ten years to begrudgingly admit to myself that meditation is the single best thing you can do to improve your health and your magic and that I should probably do more of it.
- Gordon White,The Chaos Protocols: Magical Techniques for Navigating the New Economic Reality

Now moves. Even in storytime, dreamtime, once-upon-a time, now isn’t then.

- Ursula K. le Guin

...the practioners of magic have always been syncretists, experimenting intraculturally and sticking with what worked.
- Michael M. Hughes, Magic for the Resistance

Bakery and metallurgy are just different applications of alchemy, and all three are closer together in practice and mystery than most people might expect.

Magical Timing

The Attribution of the planets to the days is encountered in the Græco-Egyptian papyri...as well as the much later grimoires, and is likely of Chaldean origin, as is the seven day week. The planetary hours schema is an adaption of Egyptian ideas encountered at around the same time. As well as coming together at the dawn of the Western magical tradition the planetary days and the planetary hours are also mathematically inseparable." -Jake Stratton-Kent, The True Grimoire (Encyclopedia Goetica Book 1)

I wanted to have this done last week; didn't quite make it. You'll see stuff gets filled in to the calendar as I go along, so if this interests you feel free to look ahead a bit (not yet!).
