Featured Website Review
I do not believe that one size fits all and I don't like books that say they are all encompassing or have the word 'complete' in their titles. However, I'm going to make an exception when it comes to http://www.realmagick.com.
The best description of the website comes from its mission statement: Realmagick is a resource and library dedicated to fostering research and sharing of knowledge in areas deemed beyond the purview of standard science: i.e. Wicca, Paganism, General Religion, Philosophy, Occult, Parapsychology, and the Paranormal.
It is not easy to tie all of these categories together, but realmagick does a very thorough job it. There are articles and discussions on everything from herbs to dream interpretations to runes and how to develop one's psychic abilities. I clicked on an article on sex magick and found a very well-thought-out and researched article. It emphasized the beauty of the human body and gave some history behind sex magick. To my pleasure, the author did stress that no one should be forced to do sex magick. I also found a wonderful section on Body Mysteries that included articles on Reiki, yoga, and Mugwort.
If the occult or metaphysics isn't your thing, then check out the interviews section. I enjoyed the interview with Dorothy Morrison.
Realmagick.com is easy to navigate and the topics are listed on each page so you can browse through runes topics while reading about starting an herb garden. There is also a list of popular articles and an excellent site map. The material is for anyone.. beginner or advanced. It has a slight ceremonial theme to it, buy don't let that prevent you from learning.
The Realmagick editors take submissions and there is a a strict copyright infringement policy in place if you are concerned about that kind of thing. They also give you full credit for your work and do not distribute it off of the website.
In conclusion, I have to say this is one of the better "one size fits all" metaphysical learning I have found in a long time and I will use it as a reference in the future.
