Originally, I began this Meetup with the intention of using it to advertise and organize the classes I teach in Magickal Spirituality.  That includes Tarot, Wicca and the Goddess.  I want to continue to do that, but....

Under Construction (but join!) (Note that this page as well as some outgoing links are NSFW.) This group is for people who have an intuition of something better, and who are pursuing it in every direction simultaneously. You have a sense of rightness and wrongness that cuts to the bone, and it doesn't line up with traditional religion or the zeitgeist. You're an information sponge, but you hold it all provisionally and pragmatically. You know that all truths are partial perspectives, i.e. wrong …

We've all heard the local "ghost story", the aunt with the old home who has "guests", the shop where things mysteriously move around, the child who talks to someone that no one else can see. In this group, we will investigate those sites, whenever and wherever possible. Non-physical Beings, aka Spirits, can take up residence in people, places, and things; those of us in the physical realm feel their presence, often in subtle ways. Regarding ghosts (which are spirits, though most spirits are not …
