Here’s a summary of activity for the week ending December 3rd, 2017.

Of course, the big news this week is that Magick, Music and Ritual 13, the Hermetic Library Anthology Album for 2017, was just released. So please check that out, and add that to your music collection by either buying it at Bandcamp or become an ongoing Patron of the library so I can send you a gratis download code!

Lots of new pages and work on old pages on the site, which is pretty much every week, really. You can always check the front page of the site which shows the most recent changes and new pages, or check out the Recent Changes special page for a full list.
