One of the books I’m reading lately is King, Warrior, Magician, Lover by Robert Moore and Doug Gillette. It’s a fascinating book that explores the archetypes of the mature and sacred masculine. This is currently part of the spiritual work that I’m engaged in as I explore my own relationship with masculinity and heal the ancestoral and contemporary wounds that I’m becoming aware of as it relates to how masculinity is treated and perceived in modern times.
One of the aspects I’m exploring in particular is related to sacred kingship and the land. I am in the process of exploring the new city and surrounding areas that I live in. While I’ve lived here for a year, I didn’t have much opportunity until recently to really begin exploring the area and developing a relationship with the land. I find it fitting and useful that part of the process has also involved cultivating a relationship with the land, particularly on the basis of the relationship has with their home and how that relationship plays out in sacromagical work one does in connecting with the land.
So it looks like I'm presenting at occult conferences again (I never thought I'd see the day THAT would happen).
I'll be presenting a workshop on the Inner Alchemy of Wintering for the Free Spirit Gathering Conference in June 18-20 (https://www.fsgonline.org/) In that workshop I'll be discussing the concept of wintering and how rest and retreat should play an important role in our spiritual practices.
And in September (17th - 19th) I'll be presenting a workshop at the AstroMagia Conference (https://astromagia.org/). It'll either be the one where I talk about my planetary magic work with the outer planets (Neptune, Uranus, and Pluto) or my work with using architectural spatial design theory to create magical spaces (ala the Sphere of Art)
And both conferences have some great lineups with other presenters, so you should make sure you check them out.
Pop Culture Magic Foundations starts on August 9th. I thought I would share with you 3 reasons why you might want to invest in this course. Watch the video to learn more about pop culture magic foundations and what we'll be learning in the class. Oh and I mention the buddy system I'll be using in this class.
Are you ready to level up your pop culture magic?
On August 9th, the first round of pop culture magic foundations goes live, and this class will be different from my other classes. We'll be doing it as a webinar, which means you'll get to ask me questions, live, among other things.
Want to learn more about pop culture magic foundations? Watch the video below:
In pop culture magic foundations, I will show you how you can:
Develop deeper relationships with pop culture spirits
Create your own pop culture magic system
Put together magical techniques based off pop culture.
and much more.

The latest round of the process of magic starts in one week, on June 8th. In the process of magic you will get a fresh perspective on your magical practice that will help you understand what is actually happening when you do a magical working. We'll explore the fundamental principles of magic so that you can see how they show up in your magical work.
Ultimately you will be able to take apart any magical working and then put it back together in way that is personalized to you. The benefits of that personalization are better results and a magical practice that is consistent because it fits who you are.
Here's a couple testimonials from other people who've taken the class:
Taylor Ellwood’s approach to magic looks at your life, looks at what you want to change and then uses your magic to improve the situation. If it does not work, improve your magic! Magic is a creative process that ties intimately into our lives and changes not only an outward situation but the magician itself.
In the beginning you will take a look at that process, something I have never seen discussed before. After that Taylor Ellwood supplies a large tool box for magical work. It ranges from creative techniques like using cut-ups to the creation of magical entities tailor-made for the magician’s needs. There are a lot of potential magical helpers on your way, gods and demons alike, and you will learn how to establish a healthy relationship with such beings that is mutually benefiting to you and them.
In no time you are doing magic that improves your life instead of reading about magic or pondering about what magic could do for you if only you could find the time to actually start practicing it. I can recommend this course for everyone who would like to become the active shaper of his or her live again.
Testimonial from Wolf Kaminksi
I have been reading and experimenting with magic and the occult for over five years and it seemed like I was going off in too many directions, without a map to guide me. I felt like I was spinning my wheels. This course helped me focus, without tying me into any particular Religion or belief system. If you are looking for a course that builds a foundation for your understanding and practice of Magic, this is the one!
This course has been amazing and I truly value your knowledge, experience and writing ability. I also like the fact that you are innovative and creative in your approach and take a progressive view of magic and are not mired down in some conservative tradition or other. You are on the “cutting edge” of magic and I am sincerely grateful to have the opportunity to take courses from you! Last but not least, you are ethical, conscientious and relate very well to your students.
I developed the process of magic class because many times I would get questions from other practitioners about how magic worked that demonstrated to me that one of the core issues people have with magic is that they got caught up in the image of magic, but don't explore the fundamental processes of magic.
I've always felt that understanding how magic works and why it works can help a magician a lot more than anything else they could learn and in my experience the process of magic is a lot easier to learn when you strip away the imagery and optional parts of magic and focus in on what actually happens when you do a given magical working.
In the process of magic class you'll learn how and why magic works and how to account for variables that can influence your magical work. I'll show how to take apart a magical working as well as how to put it back together and personalize it.
Here's what one of the people who's previously taken the class had to say about it:

If you want to understand how magic works and why it works, this class is perfect for you. Over the course of 24 lessons, we explore what the essential principles of magic are and how they work. You will also learn how to take a part any magical work in order to understand how it works, as well as how to personalize your magical work to achieve greater results.
The other day I was asked a really tough question: Why would I want to change my life with inner alchemy and internal work anyway? It just seems like a lot of work.
Really what the person was asking was: How will doing this work actually help me improve my life?
If you watched the video series I shared yesterday you saw that I shared an intense story of how I changed my life applying the 7 principles of alchemy. It wasn't easy work. It involved doing intense shadow work with myself, yet in doing that work I got myself out of the rut I had been in and set my life up, at the time, with what I needed to thrive.
Doing internal work can be hard, but the alternative is to settle for being in a rut, in a place that I call the comfortable discomfort. The comfortable discomfort is that vague recognition you have that something isn't right with your life, but you're comfortable otherwise so you settle. And in settling you slowly kill part of yourself.
The comfortable discomfort is like a frog being put into a pot of water, and then having the water heated up. The frog will jump out if its put into boiling water, but if the frog is put into a pot of cold water and the water is gradually heated up, the frog will stay put until it dies. That's the comfortable discomfort, the rut that so many people settle for instead of doing the necessary shadow work needed to change their lives.
My class JOY is really about learning the techniques and processes for doing that shadow work. The joy is discovered in the bliss of facing what makes you uncomfortable and turning it into an ally. In order to uncover our light, we have to be willing to dive into our shadows, because what is in those shadows is what is keeping us from truly inhabiting a space of power and joy in our lives.
When we learn how to change our internal reality, we also set ourselves up to change our external reality. As Robert Anton Wilson noted, "What the thinker thinks, the prover proves."
With JOY, I want to show you how to get out of the rut of the comfortable discomfort and make the changes in your life, career, or business that will truly help you discover your light and make it shine, even as you turn your shadows into your allies.
Magical blessings,
Taylor Ellwood
Magical Experimenter and Mad Scientist
P.S. Remember registration for JOY is limited to one week and I've already started getting some sign-ups, so if you feel this course could help you get out of the uncomfortable discomfort sign up today today and reserve your spot.

Testimonial from G. Marlett
By describing the process of magic(k) rituals, Taylor Ellwood taught me how to enhance my work. He taught me how to analyze and improve some rituals I had made, how to apply proved techniques to experimental rituals for internal magic and how pop culture can also be useful for creating pantheons more in relation to oneself. After this class my rituals have been really effective, and I started to think of magic as a means for transforming myself to get the best out of my environment. Highly recommendable class, I'm really happy I took it.
Testimonial from Ivan Marquez
I'm really enjoying your class. Especially helpful was how you showed the Tarot as offering up possibilities instead of viewing the cards in a rigid way. I'm also working with the element of Earth for a year. What I'm really finding from your class is that magic works. You can't believe how many doors have started opening up for me that were right under my nose.
Testimonial from T. Vorster
I decided to take Taylor Ellwood's Process of Magic class after many years of magical practice and study as a way to reboot my work. I've been involved with a few traditions but have generally been very eclectic in my approach. In my view eclecticism is a strength if you can find a way to synthesize all of those disparate takes on the magical path. Taylor has stripped away most of the window dressings associated with magic. Instead of focusing on style and aesthetics he focuses on the roots of practice and the processes underlying them. For those who are already involved in magic but are wondering how to weave together the rich variety of strands available to us in the 21st century, examining the processes that underly all magic, no matter the flavor, is an excellent place to start. For newcomers and beginners this course will help you quickly move beyond the 101 stage and help you start getting your hands dirty with practical magic.
Testimonial from Justin Patrick Moore
I decided to take this course for I was searching for a way to synthesize various magical influences I have experienced over the years in my magical journey. Now I am in the middle of the course, still doing Lesson 9, but I already have learned far more than what I expected from a single course. The course material is written in a clear style and there are no vague mystifications often found in magical texts. In the beginning the students are encouraged to examine all the elements of their magical practice. Taylor helps you to fully recognize your own definitions and mechanics of Magic that no other books or any other materials could not succeed to address. Then you will be introduced to ways to examine magical links and basis of altered states of consciousness for successful operations. One of greatest points in this course is you can have benefit from it no matter what your magical background is. It is perfectly designed to focus on core workings of Magic, so any person who has interest in any forms of magical practices will found it to be easily applicable to their own daily practice. This course is not just a correspondence course. You also have live interaction with Taylor. In such process you can share what you have found in your practice with him and people of same interest and you can have feedbacks that will lead you to deeper understanding of Magic. I truly recommend this course to anyone, novices and experts alike.
Testimonial from Yutaka Furuki
The Process of Magic was very helpful. Before the class, I had a mish-mash of ideas about how magic did and didn’t work. The course helped me to see the relationships between components and outside forces of magic in a way that made them make far more sense to me, so I could get better results from my workings. I highly recommend for a newbie or for someone like me who wants to create a firm foundation to build a practice on.
Testimonial from David Kaiser
The Process of Magic class really helped me to define what magic is to me and why I was sometimes having a difficult time getting results - and helped me to understand why I got results when I did! The classes lead to some very introspective, and sometimes uncomfortable, moments; but it has helped me to become a better, more aware, magician. The addition of the in-person teleclasses adds a very useful dimension to talk through any concerns and challenges with Taylor and my fellow students. I'd recommend this class to anyone who is interested in doing effective magic.

Hi, I’m Taylor Ellwood, occult author, magical experiment, and Esoteric books publisher. I love to share my expertise, knowledge, and process with you! I’ve been teaching classes on magic since the late 1990′s. What I love about magic is the endless possibilities for experimentation and process development.
I'm a fairly busy person, always working on some type of project or another. Occasionally I get queries from people about how they can work with me or what it is I'm working on, so below is a list of the services and products I'm currently offering.
Books
I've written a lot of books and all of them are available either on Amazon or from my publishers. If you go to the Publications tab on this website, you'll see a list of books I've written. If you order books from publishers, I will actually sign and ship them to you (because I co-own the publisher).

Author Coaching: I've recently been getting some inquiries about whether or not I coach people on writing or on marketing and selling books. In fact, I do! I have over a decade of experience in the publishing industry as both an author and publisher and can coach you on writing as well as how to market and sell books. If you do want to coach with me, I do ask for a three month initial commitment, as this process can take some time. I charge $400 a month and that gets you 4 1 hour coaching sessions per month on writing and marketing your books. For more information, Contact me.
Business Coaching: Do you own a business and want to figure out how to run it better? I teach business owners how to plan their business by design instead of run it be reaction. To learn more, visit my business coaching site.
Magic is a process that changes you and your relationship with the world, if you understand how the process works.
In this 24 lesson class, we will explore what the process of magic is and how it applies to you and your magical work. If you're looking for a different perspective on magic that explores the underlying principles of how magic works, instead of focusing on the tools, ceremonies, and other optional features, this class is for you. You will learn how to:
Develop your own definition of magic and why its important to have your own definition.
Use a process approach to magic to understand how it works and what you change.
Personalize your magical system to improve its efficacy in your life.
Understand how to fix mistakes in your magical workings.
Achieve a new understanding of magic and its place in your life and work.
Whether you are just learning about magic or have been practicing for years the Process of Magic course focuses on what really matters: Learning how to use magic to proactively improve your life. Below is a testimonial from one of my students:
The Process of Magic class really helped me to define what magic is to me and why I was sometimes having a difficult time getting results - and helped me to understand why I got results when I did! The classes lead to some very introspective, and sometimes uncomfortable, moments; but it has helped me to become a better, more aware, magician. The addition of the in-person teleclasses adds a very useful dimension to talk through any concerns and challenges with Taylor and my fellow students. I'd recommend this class to anyone who is interested in doing effective magic.
Testimonial from Victoria aka Leona Oigheag

How to define space and time and why such definitions can be use for magical work.
What the Foundational practices and processes unique to space/time magic work are.
How to work with memory, imagination, movement, and stillness as principles of space/time magic work.
How to create and work with multiple aspects of yourself.
What deities and entities are associated with space/time magic
And much, much more.
Whether you've just started practicing magic or have years of experience, this class will teach you the fundamentals of space/time magic work, and how to access and turn possibilities into reality.
Testimonials
The Space/Time Correspondence Course extends our perception to see Time and Space as essential elements in magical works. It provides us wide variety of practical techniques and ideas, all of them will be great aids for our own experiments. The whole course is like a fascinating tool-box for anyone interested in the Magic of Space and Time. -- Yutaka Furuki
Taylor Ellwood's Space Time Magic course has given me a new perspective on what Space-Time is beyond the fabric of our reality. One of the incredible ways I've been able to utilize this knowledge is in relation to healing while re-writing (in effect) a past circumstance from 7th grade in which I wasn't able to speak my voice and be heard. Through Taylor's practiced ideas of retroactive magic I journeyed back to that time and break the hold that time period had on that part of my life. I also took advantage of his knowledge and work with sigils and how it can transform, flowing from moment to moment. It gave me opportunities to work with my art skills in a new way. Beyond that one portion of the course, Taylor's frequent teleclass opportunities to talk with him provide another beneficial platform to share your experiences and get answers in real time from him. This class is more than worth what you would invest into it. I wholly recommend it! -- Erik Roth
