Most magical books unconsciously center magic in the Northern Hemisphere and apply a one size fits all approach to how magic is worked with and thought about, when it comes to casting circles, working with the directions and even connecting with the phases of the moon.
Welcome to Magical Experiments
The community for occultists, pagans, magicians and psychics who want to explore the evolution of magic and get better results
In this episode I interview Frances Billinghurst and we deconstruct and decenter the Northern Hemispheric bias in Western Magic and explore the following themes:
How to connect with the land and directions where you are, and let go of the one size fits all approach.

Why your experiences of magic are the most important teacher you can have.
