March is a troubling month, from a spiritual perspective. According to Chinese medicine, the rising winds represent metaphysical energies in
violent transition. These potent forces can leave individuals vulnerable to attack on the spiritual plane – which makes March an ideal month for Hexing activity! The Chi energies that normally maintain and guard the body are put under terrific stress by the titanic energies unleashed in March, making people vulnerable to infiltration by controlled spiritual energies.
Indeed, the winds themselves are mere outward semblances of unseen, self-aware beings – yes, the winds are alive! The great breezes that buffet ships - tossing them high on briny waves - are great sorcerous powers of living consciousness! The small, scurrying dust devils that play merrily about our feet are young entities: who will, centuries hence, blast Cornwall, Tierra del Fuego, the Celebes…
And we can summon these ancient spirits to do our bidding. Frater Alvarez has a Dungeon of Winds in his mountain retreat, yearning for escape and vengeance. Frater Crowley keeps an army of winds in the bathroom of his trailer, so legend tells. I myself command certain West winds along with a phalanx of stripy dust-devils.
With energies confused and in transit, we can strike anyone anywhere with these invisible, immortal armies. At the least, they can weaken a victim’s defensive vitality enough for a well-placed Hex to ‘stick’.
I know my monthly addresses are hugely popular in the occult community. But what is popularity? Is it appealing to the broad masses of cowardly poltroons? Or is it mere hollow approbation? No: for me, only one kind of popularity matters – the breathless ecstasy of bringing something new unbidden to the world.
Adieu! When the rains come, we shall speak again.
