Celebrate your good fortune with a drumming (19 September 2026) My scan was clean

We are going to have a drumming and potluck on September 19, 2026 to celebrate my clean colon screening, and Khari's continued good fortune at her job teaching. 

No cats or spells will be harmed at this event.

For those who have not memorized my announcement, here goes . . .

The address is 2727 N. Cook St., Denver, Colorado 80205. We are just north of the Denver zoo and city golf course, on 27th and Cook. It's an alley house, so it's all front yard; no back yard, but we do have a patio back behind the art studio that we are using for hanging out. Combination of an art gallery and an occult shop that I spent a lot of time class time in, the vibe was something I wanted in my own place.

Close friends and work volunteers will show up at 4 pm, others will start to drift in at 5 pm. The potluck begins at 6 pm, and school teacher Khari likes the main event to begin on her planned on schedule 7pm.  Please note that it's a drumming, so people can drift in as late as 9 pm. 

The gate closes at 9 pm. This is a hard close unless you know the secret Golden Dawn handshake. Do not be the person that we created this Hard Close rule for. Just because Morgan can (and is willing to) stay up and talk in the studio until the wee hours of the morning, it does not mean that Khari can.

Besides Khari's diet problem with wheat, gluten, soy, and high sugar (she's a joy to cook for); Khari also has a sleeping disorder. She has to take sleeping pills, and go to bed by a certain time; or there will be a couple of "feel bad" health days for her. Just like me, there is a reason that she's medical THC. 

If it sounds like we had an incident at an event this year, well, we did. She walked in at 10 pm. Yes, the time that I want to be turning off the lights and locking the last of the doors--because as the manager and kitchen staff, my job is done, and I can go home. Not what I wanted to see. 

Well, we might never see this person ever again. School teacher Khari sent her a message, telling her about her sleep disorder, and how she needs attendees to honor her announced schedule. Khari has received no reply. Me? I don't care . . . personal space issues . . . GD membership veto alarm . . . wait, I do care--I wanted to tell her off last year over chicken that I am sure that the health department would have shut me down off (it was definitely no longer kosher). 

Sadly, I think that the tomato plants in the garden might be from a gift of tomatoes that we received from her, that I refused to use in my kitchen earlier this season. Yes, when she showed up at ten. That's a post for a future day.
Location: 2727 Cook St, Denver, CO 80205, USA

Year into blog relaunch (Grapevine and mental health update)

Image
 Given my multiple month silence on this blog, and its recent birthday, let's do a status update. Khari's Garden with a little grape vine. We are still doing the Garden Parties. Because Khari gets bored without friends and company around. The same reason that she is polyamourous---and I am not. All my events have been killed, and with good reason . . . a colon test came back bad, so I have a physical health problem on top of the mental ones. Oh, and me blogging about my secret Mormon daughter and wife for the first time in 22 years was me being Paranoid Delusional, according to a newly minted medical doctor who never saw me before, who checked with other expert, who did not speak to me. Took me off the majority of my meds (bipolar and anxiety/panic) and put me on an anti-psychotic that crashed a brick through my sphere of sensation. The proof that I was delusional was that Khari could not verify that my daughter, Zee, existed. Because I had never talked to her, or anyone, about...

Why I got kicked out of Golden Dawn and Thelema (Go look for a better ceremonial magick teacher)

Image
Given my experience as a lodge officer and student of the Hermetic Golden Dawn and its offshoots, occasionally I need to explain (if only to remind myself) why I am not allowed to teach and lead in GD.  A who's who of the Golden Dawn community. I was not selected by a lodge to be a leader, or teacher. No, I accidentally declared myself one when attending my first Open Full Moon in fall 1996. Finding myself in the presence of a hundred-plus Denver witches, all who seemed to be experts in some esoteric field or another, I introduced myself with the only thing that I felt confident in discussing: Hermetic Golden Dawn, Thelema, and Aliester Crowley. It was either that, or talk about being an erotica author, right? Everyone who heard that initial introduction of mine, which included the mention that I was a published writer, no one ever allowed me to move past, or forget that intro. I got rewarded, or punished for it, depending upon the ego of the occultist. A couple of shop owners used...

Building a godform creation guidebook (How my Golden Dawn study night went)

Image
 After the drama of multiple schedule, "It's on--it's off because Khari's a fickle artist," one might be interested in how my scheduled Golden Dawn study night went off. Or not.  Pretend to be as interested as this chick here. Could it be godform coloring night? First, let me get my grief about the event scheduling out of the way. I wanted a regular schedule, and Khari's an artist with an health condition who wants to be able to "on-and-off" her event as she wishes. Therefore, there is no long term advertising, just short. Not exactly how my style of marketing works. The few people on my level Hermetic Golden Dawn, or working Thelema, in the Denver, Colorado area is rare; and my joke about my most interested reader being an FBI agent, reporting to the President, could be a sad truth (occult writers profiting from black magick books are considered to be a threat according to some police departments--more so than the death threats that the author is ge...
