It’s time to kick around an idea that gets brought up and used quite a bit these days. Unverified personal Gnosis are the terms used to describe a belief gained through personal subjective experience, not things which are confirmed by traditions or in groups. They usually inform the belief system of those that experience them. On this episode, we will be talking with someone whose entire practice is based around Unverified Personal Gnosis. That’s right! It’s the long-awaited return of author and animist sorcerer Aidan Wachter!
Aidan Wachter is an animist sorcerer and author of such books as Six Ways: Approaches & Entries For Practical Magic, Weaving Fate: Hypersigils, Changing The Past, & Telling True Lies, and Changeling: A Book Of Qualities. Each of these books are exceptional and well worth having in every Magician’s Library. Aidan can (and should!) be followed on Instagram. His Patreon is one of my favourites to support and I highly recommend you supporting as well if you are able to.
