The I Ching Oracle – Professor John Lai – Zoom

4. The I Ching Oracle

You don’t need to be a medium to receive an otherworldly transmission. A handful of sticks or coins may be enough to receive life-changing guidance – that is, if you’re an adept of a certain ancient Chinese oracle. Join us for the fourth instalment of Fey’s Shadow Salon to learn from an I Ching expert on the intricacies of this divinatory art.

Venerated as the “foremost among the classics” of ancient China, the I Ching (Yijing; Book of Changes) has reached out to other regions of Asia and beyond over the centuries. Thanks to the influential English translation I Ching (1950) by Richard Wilhelm and Cary Baynes, the Chinese classic has transcended cultural borders, and transformed as a “world classic”, having made a lasting impact on Western society. The I Ching has been widely used as a book of oracle or divinatory manual. In this talk, Professor John Lai will illustrate the underlying principle and centuries-old practice of I Ching oracle in the face of our uncertain life and fast-changing world.

Black Magic on Trial: Aleister Crowley, Libel, Litigation and the Law Courts – Andrew Wiseman – Zoom

Black Magic on Trial: Aleister Crowley, Libel, Litigation and the Law Courts

This presentation aims to survey the various legal battles faced or initiated by one of the twentieth-century’s most notorious and influential practitioners of the occult. By anyone’s standards Aleister Crowley (1875–1947) was a litigious individual who sought recourse to the law on more than a few occasions. Of the three main legal disputes (1911, 1922 and 1934) in which he was either a defendant or plaintiff, the most notorious case was the trial dubbed the ‘Black Magic’ Libel Action of 1934 in which Crowley sought legal redress to an incident dating back to his Cefalù days, where he had established the Abbey of Thelema. A memoir entitled Laughing Torso (1932) by Nina Hamnett (1890–1956), in which a lurid passage appears, raised Crowley’s hackles as he claimed that he was being libelled by referring to his occult practices as black magic. Having lost the case and having to pay damages, Crowley’s precarious financial problems ended in declaring bankruptcy the next year. Coverage of the trial was syndicated throughout the press and helped to seal Crowley’s notorious reputation.

No stranger to the law courts, Crowley’s first brush with the legal system dates back to the incident known as the ‘Battle for Blythe Road’ in 1900 but which did not go any further due to a solicitor’s wise piece of advice. His divorce case, initiated by his estranged wife, Rose Kelly, became a cause célèbre. His involvement, however, with the law did not all end in losses as in the case of the ‘Looking Glass’ Trial (1911) and also the one involving his novel The Diary of a Drug Fiend (1922), both involving libel, and both of which concluded in Crowley’s favour.

Given his self-inflicted and self-promoted notoriety, particularly from the yellow press of the 1920s onwards, Crowley’s reputation, one in which he sometimes relished, became a challenge for him as it preceded him and the trials he went on to lose, it may be argued, tended to eschew evidence. Trial by character rather than by evidence seems to have been the order of the day.

Hellfire, Hanging, and Humiliation: Book Curses through Book History Dr Eleanor Baker – Zoom

Hellfire, Hanging, and Humiliation: Book Curses through Book History

For as long as the written word has existed, so has the desire to protect it. One means by which people have tried to defend their precious texts is through the inscription of book curses: short, maledictory writings that warn the would-be thief, the forgetful borrower, or the malicious eraser with bodily, spiritual, or social damage. This talk will introduce some of the most ferocious and humorous book curses ever inscribed, from fearsome threats discovered emblazoned on stone monuments from the ancient Near East, to elaborate manuscript maledictions, and chilling warnings scribbled in printed books. Baker will discuss her experience hunting these book curses and reflect on how these entertaining writings offer a tantalising insight into literacy, book-ownership, and people’s attitude towards their material texts. This talk is based on Baker’s book, Book Curses (Bodleian Publishing, 2024).

Speaker Bio:

Eleanor Baker is the English Subject Lead for the University of Oxford’s Astrophoria Foundation Year and teaches medieval literature at various colleges across the university. Her doctoral thesis examined the perception of material texts in Middle English literature, and how these material objects were understood as at once practical and fantastical. Chapters of this thesis have been published in Studies in Philology and Recipes and Book Culture in England, 1350-1600 (ed. Hannah Ryley and Carrie Griffin). Eleanor’s research interests include the book culture of late medieval England, twentieth-century medievalism, and folk horror in medieval literature. Her first trade-press anthology, Book Curses, was published in 2024 by Bodleian Publishing.

Lilith, Maman Brigitte & Pomba Gira : The Dark Goddesses of Your Dreams – Lilith Dorsey – Zoom

Lilith, Maman Brigitte & Pomba Gira: The Dark Goddesses of Your Dreams

These are not gentle goddesses.

They do not whisper comfort or ask for permission.

This talk is an exploration of three powerful feminine figures who have been feared, worshipped, invoked, and misunderstood for centuries — sometimes millennia.

We begin with Lilith, the first rebel, the night-walker, the woman who refused obedience. Cast out, demonised, sexualised, and vilified by patriarchal traditions, Lilith survives as a symbol of raw autonomy, erotic power, and refusal to submit.

We then move into the graveyard fire of Maman Brigitte, Queen of the Dead, guardian of the crossroads between life and death. Fierce, sharp-tongued, protective, and just, she is called upon when boundaries are crossed, wrongs must be addressed, and protection is needed — especially for those with little power of their own.

And finally, we meet Pomba Gira — laughing, seductive, clever, bare-breasted, and unapologetic. A spirit of desire, agency, and clever survival, she turns shame into power and pleasure into strategy. Pomba Gira does not ask to be liked. She asks to be respected.

We will talk about who these figures are and where they come from and how they have been distorted, feared, or sensationalised. If you are drawn to dark goddesses, this is your chance to slow down, listen carefully, and approach them with clarity rather than projection.

They are older than fear.

And they do not belong to anyone — but they may still answer.

The 13 Most Haunted Objects in The World – Lena Heide-Brennand – Zoom

The 13 Most Haunted Objects in The World

Some objects are not owned. They cling to you.

Throughout history, certain objects have been feared not for what they are, but for what they carry. They are the things passed down in whispers: the skull that murmurs in the dark, the doll that shifts between glances, the mirror that refuses to give back an honest reflection. A ring that ruins every hand that dares wear it. A necklace that tightens of its own accord. A comb that must never touch living hair. A charm woven to imprison a spirit—only to break open decades later.

Across continents and centuries, humans have believed that objects can absorb tragedy, hunger, desire, curses, or even entire personalities. Some artefacts were sealed in iron cages and dropped into rivers. Some were locked in churches for generations. Some were burned—yet refused to stop coming back. Others were simply hidden away by families who could not bear to destroy them, but were terrified to let them go.

This lecture opens the doors to a cabinet of the world’s most unnerving relics:

• African power-objects that must be fed or they wake

• Japanese dolls that develop human hair

• Slavic household spirits bound inside handcrafted figures

• Chinese ancestor items that punish disrespect

• Irish witch-knots designed to steal a life

• Scandinavian grave goods that cannot rest

• American cursed antiques that destroy every owner

Each object reveals a deeper truth about fear, memory, and the uneasy relationship between the living and the dead. Why do some items become vessels? How does a curse attach itself? Can an object be “alive” in a ritual or spiritual sense? And what happens when such things move from their original cultures into modern hands?

Enter with curiosity—but tread carefully.

Some stories have a habit of following you home.

Magical Recipes- An Online course: Food, Potion, and Power in Old Norse & Folk Magic – Lena Heide Brennand – Zoom

Magical Recipes- An Online course: Food, Potion, and Power in Old Norse & Folk Magic

This one-night, fully practical online workshop is about making two complete, historically grounded Viking recipes from start to finish: a Viking herbal honey bread and a traditional-style Viking mead, prepared live in your own kitchen using simple, accessible ingredients.

By the end of the evening, every participant will have baked a finished loaf of herbal honey bread and begun a real mead preparation that continues fermenting after the session, alongside a clear understanding of why bread, honey, herbs, fermentation, and time were understood as powerful and magical in the Norse and Northern folk world.

In Viking and folk tradition, magic was not abstract. It was kneaded, brewed, heated, tasted, shared, and remembered. Bread and mead sat at the heart of both daily survival and ritual life, carrying meanings of hospitality, protection, abundance, oath-making, and community. Fermentation itself was understood as a living process, something that transformed sweetness into strength through patience and care.

During the session, participants will be guided step by step through the preparation of a historically inspired, kitchen-safe Viking herbal honey bread, using grain, honey, and simple herbs rooted in Northern tradition. Alongside this, participants will learn how to prepare a traditional-style Viking mead using honey, water, and yeast, following principles drawn from historical and archaeological evidence rather than modern commercial recipes. The bread will be fully prepared and baked during the live session, while the mead will be mixed, activated, and set aside to ferment at home.

Alongside the practical cooking and brewing, the workshop explores how these recipes functioned as ritual technologies. Participants will learn how intention was built through timing, repetition, touch, and attention; why kneading, stirring, heating, and spoken words mattered; the symbolic and practical roles of honey, grain, herbs, water, and fermentation; and how food and drink moved fluidly between nourishment, medicine, celebration, and ritual power. The session also addresses how to adapt these techniques responsibly for modern kitchens while respecting historical reality.

All ingredients are non-toxic, food-safe, and easily sourced from ordinary supermarkets. Ingredient lists and clear instructions will be provided in advance.

The workshop is designed as an intimate, hands-on experience. Participants are encouraged to bake and brew along on camera, ask questions, and share their process, though cameras remain optional. No prior baking, brewing, or magical experience is required.

Places are strictly limited to preserve a practical, interactive, and genuinely communal atmosphere.

Come knead. Come brew. Come taste the old magic.

You will leave with warm bread, living mead in the making, and a deeper understanding of how magic once lived in the hearth and the cup.

The Philosophers’ Stone Is Real: How Chemistry Shaped Alchemical Allegory – Sergei Zotov – Zoom

The Philosophers’ Stone Is Real: How Chemistry Shaped Alchemical Allegory

Early modern alchemists did not invent their imagery in a vacuum. It emerged from engagement with real chemical and metallurgical processes observed in laboratories. This lecture explores how such processes generated the weird and often disturbing allegorical language of alchemy: hybrid bodies, hermaphrodites, cannibalistic kings, green lions, and Christ-eagles. I argue that these strange images often functioned as visual models for thinking about matter, transformation, and causality before the modern chemical theory of elements.

Drawing on illustrated alchemical manuscripts and albums from the fifteenth to eighteenth centuries, the talk shows how allegory became a practical cognitive tool — a way to stabilise, remember, and communicate experimental knowledge in a world without standardised chemical notation.

Dwell with Osiris – Death and Rebirth in Ancient Egypt – Dr Chris Naunton – Zoom

Dwell with Osiris- Death and Rebirth in Ancient Egypt

What happens when you die?

The ancient Egyptians developed a rich and complex set of beliefs about death, the afterlife, and the journey beyond the horizon. Among the most vivid and influential of these is the Amduat — an Egyptian term meaning “That Which Is in the Netherworld.”

The Duat was the hidden, underground realm through which the sun god travelled each night, dying with the setting sun and being reborn at dawn. This nocturnal journey was not his alone. It was also the path taken by the spirit of the king, who hoped to dwell eternally within the Amduat alongside Osiris, the mythic first king — and yet also to emerge renewed, transformed, and reborn into a perfected next life.

This lecture follows that perilous passage: through darkness and transformation, danger and renewal, as we trace one of humanity’s earliest and most compelling maps of death, rebirth, and cosmic order.

Speaker Bio:

Dr Chris Naunton is a British Egyptologist, author, and public historian, widely respected for his ability to bring the beliefs, texts, and lived realities of ancient Egypt vividly to life. He holds a PhD in Egyptology and is particularly known for his work on Egyptian religion, funerary literature, and conceptions of the afterlife, including the Amduat, Book of the Dead, and related underworld texts.

He has served as Director of the Egypt Exploration Society, one of the world’s oldest and most prestigious Egyptological organisations, and has been closely involved with research, fieldwork, and scholarly outreach connected to major collections such as those of the British Museum. Alongside his academic work, Naunton is a prolific communicator, appearing frequently in documentaries, lectures, podcasts, and radio programmes, where he bridges rigorous scholarship with compelling storytelling.

Naunton is the author of several acclaimed books, including Searching for the Lost Tombs of Egypt and The Story of Egypt, which combine archaeology, history, and cultural analysis to explore how ancient Egyptians understood their world — and how we continue to interpret it today. His lectures are known for their clarity, depth, and narrative power, guiding audiences through complex religious ideas while remaining firmly grounded in historical evidence.

With a rare talent for making ancient texts feel urgent, strange, and profoundly human, Dr Chris Naunton is one of the leading contemporary voices interpreting Egypt’s gods, dead, and eternal landscapes for modern audiences.

Haunted Waters: River Spirits, Drowned Ghosts & Water-Witches – Lena Heide Brennand – Zoom

Haunted Waters: River Spirits, Drowned Ghosts & Water-Witches

Where something ancient watches from beneath the surface—hungry, patient, and older than the land itself.

In every culture on earth, water is a threshold—a mirror, a mouth, a silent witness—and often, a predator. This immersive lecture journeys through the world’s most haunting aquatic folklore, from the still pools of rural China where drowned maidens rise for revenge, to the river-goddesses of West and Central Africa who demand offerings, to Japan’s kappa lurking beneath bridges with a child’s laugh and a demon’s appetite.

Meet the Slavic Rusalka whose beauty kills; the Nøkken of Scandinavia who sings travellers to their deaths; the storm-witches of the Baltic who can raise waves with a whisper; and the restless river-ghosts of Eastern Europe and East Asia, forever tied to the waters that claimed them.

Drawing on global folklore, mythic ecology, and the anthropology of water-spirits, we reveal why lakes, rivers, wells, estuaries, and shorelines are universally feared as borders between worlds. Discover the ritual offerings once cast into sacred springs, the ceremonies performed to calm offended rivers, and the bone-deep belief that the drowned do not sleep—they linger.

A night of mythology, terror, beauty, and the uncanny pull of the deep: a lecture on the ancient, living waters that have shaped human imagination for thousands of years
