Dr. Stone and Abammon dive into the Greek Magical Papyri — the ancient collection of real working spells from Greco-Roman Egypt that quietly shaped the entire Western magical tradition. We break down the famous Headless Rite and Mithras Liturgy, crack the code on the PGM's bizarre ingredient lists, explore how to actually use the barbarous names and voces magicae, and trace the Egyptian mythology and priestcraft behind the spells. If you've ever picked up the PGM and felt lost, this is your way in.

In this episode of Discovrse, Abammon the Great and Dr. Anna Stone speak with Kabbalist Yirah the Ari, whose work has attracted a growing following for his open discussion of advanced teachings from authentic Jewish Kabbalah.

Yirah shares insights into the deeper relationship between Gnosticism and Kabbalah, the hidden mystical structures within the New Testament, and the prophetic techniques he claims to have used in predicting the coming Iran conflict.

We also discuss the large translation effort he and his students are currently undertaking to bring foundational Kabbalistic texts into English, making material accessible that has historically been difficult to study outside of Hebrew.

Toward the end of the conversation, Yirah hints at a mysterious collaborative project connected to a broader world peace initiative, suggesting that ancient mystical knowledge may have a role to play in shaping the future.

This episode explores the deeper mechanics of Kabbalistic practice, the transmission of esoteric traditions, and the possibilities that emerge when hidden knowledge enters the public sphere.

In this episode of Discovrse, Dr. Anna Stone and Abammon the Great explore one of the most controversial questions in the occult: whether magic is simply psychological—or a real force operating within nature.We examine modern research into psi phenomena, including investigations conducted by U.S. intelligence programs and contemporary parapsychology organizations studying consciousness and anomalous perception. From there, we look back to the medieval metaphysical models that once explained magical influence through natural philosophy—frameworks that also attempted to describe sound, light, and the subtle forces that move through the cosmos.Along the way we discuss how historical theories of occult qualities and hidden sympathies differ from modern occult ideas about “belief” and “willpower,” and why many classical magicians saw magic as a lawful interaction with the hidden structure of reality.The episode closes with personal experiences and unusual manifestations that challenge the idea that magic is merely symbolic or psychological.Is magic superstition… misunderstood science… or something stranger entirely?Topics Covered• Modern research into psi phenomena• Intelligence agency experiments with psychic perception• Medieval metaphysics and natural magic• Occult sympathies and hidden forces in nature• Why classical magicians rejected the “belief model” of magic• Personal encounters with physical magical manifestationsJoin our College and Temple:www.collegeofmagicians.org&Our Occult App: https://www.livegrimoire.comA weekly show exploring magic, mysticism, parapsychology, and the hidden traditions of the Western esoteric world with Dr. Anna Stone and Abammon the Great.#Magic #Occult #Parapsychology #PsiPhenomena #Hermeticism #EsotericTradition #Witchcraft #Mysticism #HiddenKnowledge #Magick

What is Theurgy — and how does it differ from ordinary magic?In this episode of Discovrse, we sit down with Abbas the Alchemist for a wide-ranging conversation on the Divine Art. We explore what Theurgy actually means in the classical sense, how it developed in late antiquity, and how Arabic alchemy preserved and transformed elements of the Greek initiatory current.From there, the conversation moves into deeper waters:• The relationship between Theurgy and Alchemy• Arabic alchemical influence on Western esotericism• The nature of evil and demiurgy• Theurgic ascent vs. sorcery• Personal experiences with ritual practice• And a late-episode dive into Hecate and liminal goddess currentsThis isn’t surface-level occult talk. It’s a serious discussion of the initiatory tradition — where ritual, philosophy, and lived experience intersect.If you’re interested in Hermeticism, Neoplatonism, alchemy, or mysticism, this one goes deep.

This episode begins with an unexpected but necessary discussion: egregores, psychological contagion, and modern cognitohazards.

Abammon explains how collective psychic fields form around current events and how magicians can become entangled in them. We discuss detachment, sovereignty of mind, and ritual disentanglement.

The second half of the episode moves into practical magical protection:

• Warding ritual spaces
• Home protection procedures
• Witchcraft methods vs ceremonial / Abrahamic approaches
• Cleansing vs structural warding
• Psychic containment

Protection is a foundational discipline for any serious practitioner. Without it, ritual becomes instability.

This is a technical discussion grounded in practice — not fear-based superstition.

In this episode of Discovrse, Abammon the Great and Dr. Anna Stone expose one of the most legendary—and most dangerous—texts of Jewish magical tradition: Sepher Raziel HaMalach.

Far from a book of devotional angel prayers, the Sepher Raziel is a technical manual of Kabbalistic angelic magic, preserving ritual methods said to originate in the primordial revelation given to Adam after the Fall. In this episode, we break down how the text actually functions beneath its dense symbolism, examining its use of divine names, seals, planetary timing, and ritual structures intended to induce ecstatic, visionary, and prophetic trance states.

We trace the book’s deep roots in Merkavah mysticism, exploring how its methods align with early Jewish techniques of visionary ascent, angelic encounter, and throne-chariot cosmology. We also examine its clear ties to Babylonian astrology and astral magic, revealing how planetary intelligences and celestial mechanics underpin many of its operations.

Finally, we look at the legends surrounding the Sepher Raziel—stories of practitioners who allegedly succeeded in its conjurations and ascensions, and why rabbinic authorities and later magicians alike warned that this book was not meant for the uninitiated.

This is not New Age angel magic.
This is elite ritual technology—handled with fear, reverence, and strict boundaries for a reason.

Why do the same occult ideas produce radically different moral outcomes in different people? In this episode, we examine occultism through the lens of moral development, dialectical ethics, and Spiral Dynamics—showing how esoteric systems amplify, refine, or expose a practitioner’s ethical structure rather than replacing it.
