In the quiet of painted floors, the Praying Mouse keeps vigil -paws pressed in eternal devotion, eyes closed to the chaos, ears wide to the whisper of worlds within.

Before him, the ashes of intentions burned - paper prayers surrendered to smoke, a ritual of release and return.

He asks nothing but stillness.He offers everything in silence.

This is a basic idea and it is called "The Ritual of the Fly" Inspired by this journal entry: "This afternoon, a fly landed on my computer screen - right on the face of someone in a paused video. I waved it off, expecting it to flee. It didn’t. It returned to the exact same spot. Again. And again.

Annoyance rose. I moved my hand. It danced in the air. Still, it landed precisely where it had started.

Then it got strange.

As it perched once more on the face on my screen, I moved my mouse. The cursor slid next to it, then under it.

The fly twitched. Felt it. As if it sensed the digital presence beneath its belly.

It jumped - just a few centimeters. My cursor chased it. We danced. I traced a slow circle around it. It flinched and darted again. A digital predator and a winged trespasser, locked in ritual.

Finally, it landed in the top-right corner.

I moved the cursor carefully. Not to scare it - just to “draw.” One big cross - right over the fly (well, technically underneath it). The fly paused. Then lifted. And vanished.

That was two hours ago."

This is my current creative project I’m working on. It’s called Magical Mindset: A Hands-On Guide for building Confidence and Unlocking Creativity.

At its core, this book is about something I believe we all need more of: magical confidence. Not just belief in spells or symbols—but belief in yourself as a co-creator of your reality. It’s the kind of confidence that lets you walk through the world awake, attuned, and empowered to shift your state, follow your intuition, and re-enchant your life—on purpose.

This book is for you if: – You’re curious about magic but not sure where to start – You want a creative, personal, playful approach to self-transformation – You crave practical rituals over rigid rules – You’ve ever felt magic in the everyday—then second-guessed it

What you’ll gain: – A deepened sense of inner power and presence – Daily practices to sharpen intuition and influence – Tools for turning ordinary moments into rituals – A stronger connection between your creativity and your reality

This is not a book of magical theories or traditions. There are no complicated systems to memorize. No gatekeeping. Just accessible, hands-on practices drawn from folklore, play, art, and energy work—designed to help you build real confidence in your ability to shape your inner and outer worlds.

I’d love to hear what speaks to you—and if anything sparks a question or idea, feel free to comment or reach out. Your feedback is always welcome

Magic Hands: A Path to Restful Sleep and Renewed Energy

We all have our rituals and practices to help us wind down after a long day. For many, the age-old techniques of counting sheep or a steady countdown are methods of coaxing sleep. But what if there’s a way to actively guide your body into deep relaxation and restore its energy while seamlessly drifting off?

One such powerful practice involves the visualization of hands—not just any hands, but ones imbued with care and healing energy. Before I fall asleep, I often picture a pair of hands, their palms facing upward, radiating warmth and light. To me, these hands are comforting, nurturing, and gentle. They begin their journey at my head, softly massaging my temples and neck, before traveling down my body: shoulders, arms, torso, legs, and finally my feet.

As I visualize these hands, I don't just see them—I imagine the sensations they evoke. The imagined touch soothes away tension, releasing aches and pains as it moves downward. Every muscle unwinds, every joint feels fluid, and a gentle warmth settles over me like a golden blanket.

There’s another dimension to this practice that makes it even more compelling. These hands are no ordinary appendages—they’re luminous, emitting golden light from their palms. This light, in my mind, holds profound healing properties. It flows into each part of my body where I imagine the hands resting, gradually removing discomfort and replenishing energy. The light isn’t just surface-level—it penetrates deeper. It cups vital organs like the lungs, heart, and stomach, surrounding them with warmth and care.

This visualization isn’t rigid; you can adapt it to suit your aesthetic preferences and needs. Maybe your healing hands look like mystical, scaly beings as depicted in the accompanying artwork—vibrant in shades of turquoise and green with magenta accents. Or perhaps they’re ethereal and ghostly, or covered with feathers, emanating light through their unique textures.

The practice is simple: hold the visual of the hands for 5–10 seconds at each part of the body, allowing the warmth and light to do their work before moving on. Over time, this technique can become a cherished nightly ritual. Not only does it help relax the body and ease aches, but it also creates a serene mental state conducive to sleep.

Whether you see your hands as radiant, scaled, or glowing with magical energy, this visualization offers a gentle and effective way to calm the body, mind, and spirit. Why count sheep when you can count on magic hands instead?

This is an experiment of brining sigils.

ink on paper, water, Himalayan coarse salt, a glass jar, and symbolic objects atop the jar: flint rock and dried lemon

Salted water, or brine, is a potent symbol in many traditions, representing purification, preservation, and the dissolution of negative energies. By immersing sigils in this medium, the intent is to release the energy of the symbols into the surrounding environment or to purify and amplify their purpose. The symbolic object placed atop the jar—like a stone or an organic material—acts as an anchor for the ritual, adding an extra layer of meaning or protection. For example, a hard stone like flint symbolizes strength, while an organic element channels grounding energy.

Pan's Algorithm: AI and the Ritual Imagination

"These images represent a unique collaboration between human creativity and artificial intelligence, depicting a sequential chart of a magical ritual centered around the earth god Pan. The process began with a traditional ritual framework, which was then interpreted and expanded upon by an AI image generation system. The AI synthesized complex visual information, creating intricate geometric patterns, symbolic representations, and dreamlike imagery that maintain a coherent narrative flow. The 'Vague image of the whole,' as noted in the chart, suggests a holistic vision, a synthesis of human intent and machine interpretation.

The extended version of the previous post:

This is a sequential chart outlining the procedural steps of a magic ritual. The ritual consists of three phases: preparation, invocation, and closure. It begins with the inverted figure to signify a shift in perception, followed by a wavy line representing a controlled breathing sequence: 3 breaths x 7 = 21. This stage induces a meditative state and facilitates entry into gnosis. Next, the ritual proceeds with the invocation of the four elemental deities: Air, Fire, Water, and Earth, each represented by specific symbols and gestures. The ritual concludes with a final repetition of 21 breaths, restoring equilibrium and completing the ritual sequence. The final image is a thumb + fingers totalling in 21.

This is an illustrative sequence from my recent book "Codex Chaos: Morphomata".

"Morphomata" derives from the Greek word morphē (form/shape) and the suffix -mata, signifying multiple manifestations. This collection explores the morphing and juxtaposition of diverse ideas into intricate, meditative thought-forms.

Each original thought-form artwork (16 collages) is accompanied by four machine reinterpretations, creating an evolving dialogue between human and artificial consciousness. Through algorithmic processes, each AI version reconstructs and reimagines the original work, preserving certain core elements while introducing unexpected transformations. These variations highlight the fascinating tension between human creativity, with its embrace of ambiguity and intuitive leaps, and the machine's systematic yet sometimes surprising interpretations.
