Magic & The Occult

idk this seemed like a thread we should have.

Is this for "serious" talk or fantasy stuff?

Salix Babylonika

Either I suppose, but I was looking up stuff about onmyodo when I made it so I guess the former moreso.

speaking of which, it's sort of shocking how quickly both Google and Wikipedia fail as a tool when you try to look up something non-western.

one of the first results for "onmyodo" (without the overstrikes the latter two O's are supposed to have) is TVTropes' useful notes page. That's not a good sign.

with the overstrikes, the first result you get is a man claiming that Japan stole onmyodo from China.

I'm sure the Japanese-language page on Onmyodo has a lot more information.

But yeah! Magical theory is an interesting thing to talk about.

relevant bump?

Our local occult shop recently moved to the university area. I went there, and a fellow there told me that I had 'a very goddess vibe' so-to-speak and should look into that.
