Here’s a summary of activity for the week ending October 8th, 2017.

We’re in the thick of Inktober now! I’d been thinking I would post panels for season 2 of Aethyrs every day, but then I remembered that I’ve recently started to work on having time for other projects, instead of being busy on only the library absolutely every day for more hours than full time each week. So, I took the weekend off from posting new Aethyrs, while I was taking a planned break from working on the library. But, I’ve got most dialog for the month sketched out in draft, though I’ve not yet got the entire month figure out yet.

Anyone want to do guest panels for this season?

Here’s a summary of activity for the week ending September 24th, 2017.

There was a cold snap this last week. I actually fired up the wood stove one morning for the first time since last winter. It’s starting to get all dark and blustery up in here, though I understand it might get into the 80s for a last hurrah a couple days this week. However, I have a nagging feeling it will be a long cold winter this time around. The library cats and I are starting to feel it coming on the winds with rain. It’s going to take some serious effort to keep spirits up though.

Getting lots of pages up for languages other than English, now that the tools are in place to handle that. There’s so many pages on the site that it will take a long time, if ever, for everything to get done, but there’s a lot of the technical books of Thelema getting in place. A large number in Portuguese have been added, thanks to a great volunteer, and I’ve been adding new portal graphics and fixing import cruft on the matching English pages as we go. I’ve also been working through German, Esperanto, Spanish and French as I can, which is slowly, but I’m making progress.

And, really, let’s be honest, I mentioned a while ago that I’m not really fluent in any of those, or the languages that haven’t even been started. I’m sure my translations are less than ideal, but I’m doing what I can with what I’ve got. If you, or someone you know, might be interested in helping with any of the various language portals, do let me know.

I’d love to get source materials up for Latin and Classical Greek along with other source material in other languages, which can then be added in English translation to the main site. That’s a whole project that I haven’t started, and wish there was someone, or ones, interested in taking that on as a project.

Welp. Reader’s Theatre: Household Gods was a bit of a bust. Only one person showed up, and only to listen, so I called it off. If it’s just me participating, it’s basically a podcast; so I might as well record it directly instead of through voice chat, if I’m going to do it. And, maybe that’s how I should do it, if I keep doing it.

Maybe there just isn’t interest in the idea of Reader’s Theatre, or in voice chat, in general, for the library. If you’ve got ideas of what you’d want to attend or participate in as far as events over in voice chat, let me know. Or for another library podcast or video? Also, if you are interested in hosting or being a guest for an event, interview, class, or soever in voice chat or podcast or video get in touch and let’s talk about getting things going!

It’s less than a week before the September 30th deadline for submissions for Magick, Music and Ritual 13 and to GIT COMMIT GLITCH, the Odd Order anthology. (I’ve not yet gotten submissions for the Odd Order anthology so far, so I may have to skip this year; though I’ve heard of two that might come in. So, get something to me! I’m going to be sad if I can’t even offer an EP to showcase some awesome artists.) If you’re working on a submission, hurry! If you’re not … time to start!

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.

Here’s a summary of activity for the week ending September 17th, 2017.

The first rain in two months at the library, in the PNW even! And, it has started to get darker and colder in the mornings. But, at least the forest fires and smoke have also had rain on them as well. Switched from running the AC to running a dehumidifier this weekend.

I once made a list of characteristics I felt should be included in an ideal workplace, and having open hours that matched the changing local daylight was one of them. As it gets darker, I’ve been getting up to start work on the library later, so, in a way, I’ve got that now! Still up and at it around dawn, until noon; and there’s still so much to do, old and new pages alike.

I’ve decided to set office hours, which I was doing every day while working on the library, to just Tuesday morning, over in voice chat. I’ll try that for a while and see how it goes. Since I started to do those, I’ve had a few people, and a couple Patrons, stop by, but not a lot. There’s no specific purpose for them, other than a kind of unstructured time and place, if people have something about the library they want to talk about. Part of it was for a bit of virtual co-working as well, but it’s been so quiet there’s not much reason to do it every day.

This week is Reader’s Theatre: Household Gods, Thu Sep 21, 7-9pm Pacific, in voice chat, so, you know, mark your calendar, and maybe gander at Household Gods and think about how awesome it would be to participate!

Got ideas of what you’d want to attend or participate in as far as events over in voice chat? Or for another library podcast or video? Also, if you are interested in hosting or being a guest for an event, interview, class, or soever in voice chat or podcast or video get in touch and let’s talk about getting things going!

Here’s a summary of posts on the blog from last week

• “In an important sense, soulmaking is just the creative seeking and expression of extrarational truth. It’s what we do when we dialogue with the parts of ourselves that usually go unheard—whether it be our heart, our guides, or our genius.” — Quote

• “Sure, as a teenager he’d experimented with the whole pose, but found that rebelling against everything all the time was just too exhausting. It was like an emotional treadmill.

• “There was something rather Elizabethan about him—his casual versatility, his good looks, that effervescent combination of mental with physical activities. Something a bit Philip-Sidney-ish. Our civilization doesn’t often breed people like that nowadays. I made a remark of this kind to Rutherford, and he replied: ‘Yes, that’s true, and we have a special word of disparagement for them—we call them dilettanti.” — Quote
• “Capacity which, in her nature, had reached the extreme of active life, seemed in him to have entered the contemplative, so much had his art become a thing of his soul. Where, in their own separate private affairs, he interfered so little as almost to seem inefficient, she was so efficient as almost to seem interfering.” — Quote

Here’s a summary of posts on the blog from last week

• Civilization and Its Discontents — Review
• “The dense black clouds were driving restlessly athwart the sky; and when the vivid lightning gleamed forth with rapid and eccentric glare, it seemed as if the dark jaws of some hideous monster, floating high above, opened to vomit flame. And as the abrupt but furious gusts of wind swept through the forest, they raised strange echoes—as if the impervious mazes of that mighty wood were the abode of hideous fiends and evil spirits, who responded in shrieks, moans, and lamentations to the fearful din of the tempest.” — Quote
• Cthulhusattva — Review
• “it is intended to be a place where those who earnestly aspire to spirituality may find the external conditions necessary to cultivate it and to acquire the true ‘magic staff’ that will securely support them on their voyage through eternity; namely, the power to recognise divine truth within their own selves–not by any capacity of their own, but by the power of the Light itself, which comes to all men if they are willing that the darkness should be driven away.” — Quote
• Atlan — Review
• Greater Feast of Robert Fludd — Calendar
• “the Rosicrucians were telepathically beaming pictures at him” — Quote

• Reader’s Theatre: Household Gods, Thu Sep 21, 7-9pm Pacific, in voice chat — Event
• The Delirium Brief — Review
• “My questions go deeper than that; they are doubts about my faith. I have only one certainty: there exists a parallel spiritual universe that impinges on the world in which we live. Apart from that, everything else seems absurd to me—sacred books, revelations, guides, manuals, ceremonies … and, what is worse, they appear to have no lasting effects.” — Quote
• “Oomph times zoom equals kaboom!” — Quote
• The Gospel in George MacDonald — Review
• “I found his style of teaching, which was both science-oriented and ecumenical, attractive for a number of reasons which deeply resonated with me. While nominally a Buddhist, he could talk intelligently about the spiritual practices of many religions and traditions. He was also a geek—fascinated by dead languages and abstract mathematics. I liked his modern, rational, and non-sectarian viewpoint.” — Quote
• Feast of Mosheh — Calendar
• H.P. Lovecraft: Against the World, Against Life – Review
• “He was fond of them and, with his fundamental human vanity, unable to resist the easy pleasure of exercising his mental superiority to their dumbfounded amazement.” — Quote

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

This week, the Hermetic Library page over on Facebook past 80,000 followers. That’s a crazy big number! I’m a little bitter that I only reach a small fraction of those followers, even when I posted to thank them all, old and new alike, but, it is what it is, is it not? The Hermetic Library presence on Twitter recently passed 14,000, and the main library Tumblog is set to pass 12,000 followers this week. Pretty cool! So, if you’re following on social media, and missed any of my posts saying thanks, or are just following along on the blog, or even if you’re just checking the actual website and none of the other stuff: thank you for being a fan of the Hermetic Library! I’m a fan too!

I posted the podcast and video of Hermetic Library Reader’s Theatre 17aug2017 last week. This week, on Thursday, I’ll be announcing the next Reader’s Theatre, including the theme and date, but *spoiler alert* I’m planning on third Thursday in September, in voice chat, so, you know, mark your calendar, and maybe gander at Household Gods, for, um, no reason at all, why do you ask? *wink, wink*

Here’s a summary of posts on the blog from last week

• The Bone Clocks — Review
• “As for the rest we wait till the world changes and its reflection changes in our mirror and an hieratical society returns, power descending from the few to the many, from the subtle to the gross, not because some man’s policy has decreed it but because what is so overwhelming cannot be restrained. A new beginning, a new turn of the wheel.” — Quote

• Fire of Motion — Review
• “Man has not only dissembled, deceived, made war without cause, given cause to those who dare not or could not defend their rights, and compelled his fellow to believe without evidence or intuition, but he has called the God whom he says delights in goodness and will punish all evil doers, to be a witness and a helper in his evil deeds.” — Quote
