Our second episode of 2023, and it was a wonderful conversation with PGM and practical occult practitioner Alison Chicosky. Alison is the author of The Secrets of Helios: Unlocking the Practical Uses of PGM IV.1596-1715 which was recently released by Hadean Press. She is a PGM practitioner, magician, and founder of the www.PracticalOccult.com website. We had a lovely chat about the nature of Egyptian magic, obtaining knowledge from Spirits (while developing relationships with Them,) and deepening our connections to ritual in everyday life.  I look forward to having her on the show again, and I hope you enjoy this conversation! -- Alison's' website: http://www.PracticalOccult.com -- The Secrets of Helios: Unlocking the Practical Uses of PGM IV.1596-1715 -- Alison's PGM Study and Practice Facebook group: PGM Study & Practice Group | Facebook -- Website: http://www.coffeeanddivination.com -- Theme music: Come with Me by JoAnna Farrer.
