Geomancy for Cleansing & Healing Class-Bundle
Geomancy for Cleansing & Healing Class-Bundle
A one-off self-contained class introducing some methods of cleansing, cleaning-off and healing work with virtues and spirits of the oracle of geomancy. This class-bundle consists of a recording of (just under) two hours of illustrated lecture; as well as offering access to full scans of the pre-modern magical texts cited and explored – that is, pre-modern primary sources on topics including geomancy, occult medicine, cunning-craft, and astrological magic (including fully searchable .txt files scans of these sources), with a bibliography and full set of suggested reading and follow-up courses to further explore these topics and techniques.
All medical endeavour towards health, can be considered an exorcism of sorts. Healing in geomantic divination and magic is often framed as a removal of disease, of a return to balanced functionality through excising, shedding, evacuating, or otherwise removing a maladaptive or downright pathological influence.
That influence might be environmental, chronic, and/or the result of human malice, neglect, or ignorance (whether our own or that of others) as well as the work of literal spirits. Most often in pre-modern magical healing, dysfunction was framed as a concatenation of such material and spiritual factors. Hauntings erode a person’s mental and even physical health, and those made vulnerable by disease can certainly fall prey to opportunistic attaching spirits.
There are many ways to effectuate the voidings that can help establish health and well-being, and this class will focus on those geomantic means of eliminating excesses. We will consider the various tools, resources, and techniques for "cleaning off" such crossed conditions, spiritual detritus, and harmful blockages: from baths and washes; to dietary considerations; to the use of amulets and pentacles to banish harmful virtues and spirits; to using sympathetic materials to pull disruptive or sickening influences and agents from the afflicted patient. This class will also offer training in the focused applications of fundamental heating, cooling, drying, and wetting actions of humoural therapeutic remediation to re-balance bodily, mental, and spiritual health.
