According to a current news story, Dita Von Teese, the wife of cosmetically-challenged shock-rock musician, Marilyn Manson, has filed for a divorce from her Satanic spouse.

Although there are many who believe Manson will be shocked by Dita’s divorce filing, I’m sure he’s known about it much earlier — no doubt through his use of the Marilyn Manson Tarot deck.

Dita told friends that she couldn’t get in touch with him, and he wouldn’t even make an effort to communicate with her. To get his attention she decided to slap him with divorce papers while he was busy recording tracks for his latest album, hoping he would finally notice her. Of course, if she had really wanted to talk to him, all she had to do was use a Ouija Board, silly girl!

Anyway, Manson was reportedly served with legal papers on January 5th, (his 38th birthday), although rumor has it that Dita filed them closer to Christmas, yet another reason for Manson to be pissed off at Jesus! LOL (Call me old-fashioned, but methinks after marrying a Pagan like MM, it would have made more sense to file the papers on the Winter Solstice!)

Is there a curse on Nicole Richie? She certainly seems to think so!

According to a recent news report, celebutante Nicole Richie has supposedly paid a West Hollywood Spiritualist to do a Ritual Cleansing of her home. Apparently, Richie has become convinced that she is under magickal attack, and has been cursed with a hex. The Spiritualist performed a two-hour ritual, using a combination of incantations and sage-burning to release Richie from the supposed curse, according to certain sources.

Celebrity Virgo: Nicole, a Virgo born on September 21, 1981, is considered by her friends to be very superstitious, and is an ardent believer in supernatural and psychic phenomena. Members of her close circle of friends state that Nicole is very sensitive and would never project any negativity upon anyone — let alone cast a hex on anyone herself.

Suffering Through a Solar Eclipse: Poor Ms. Richie isn’t under psychic attack, she’s just feeling the awful effect of a recent Solar Eclipse in Virgo. As a trained Astrologer, I recognize that as a late-degree Virgo, Nicole has no doubt been adversely affected by the Solar Eclipse that occurred last September 23rd, 2006. For those of you who’d like to know what Astrology has to do with it …

Today is a very special day; it’s the 63rd Birthday of rock singer/poet, Jim Morrison, also known as “The Lizard King”.

James Douglas Morrison was born December 8th, 1943 and died on July 3, 1971, at the age of 27. (See my Podcast of 11-27-06 for more info).

Jim holds a very special place in modern music history for being one of the earliest proponents of Shamanism in rock music. He was fascinated by the ways of Native American culture, and strove to reconnect his spirit to the Earth by using his music and lyrics ritualistically, with great success.

Morrison was also a gifted poet achieving widespread critical acclaim for his written works. He was admittedly inspired by the great child poet, Arthur Rimbaud, whom he championed as a personal poetic muse.

Today I’m celebrating the 59th Re-birthday of Edward Alexander Crowley, more commonly known as Aleister Crowley. What is a “re-birthday” you may ask. It’s what I like to call the anniversary of someone’s physical death.

The very fact that you’re now reading this blog is due to the impact of Aleister’s writings on Magick and Metaphysics, the greatest of which is his channeled masterwork, The Book of the Law. Crowley was the man truly responsible for awakening society to the spiritual New Age we have only recently entered.

English-born, Crowley was born on October 12th, 1875 in England, and died on December 1st, 1947 — 59 years ago, today.

Take a moment of your day to learn more about this remarkable man, who lived and breathed Magick. Read the poem Crowley wrote, Hymn to Pan, which was read at his Greater Feast and Funeral.

Crowley’s influence on my life has been enormous. My natural psychic gifts have been strengthened by reading his works, and putting his developmental exercises and discipline into action. Any of my psychic friends and clients who have ever received help from me have Aleister to thank.

I will continue to post items about Crowley on my blog, and I urge you to take the time to read a few of his works. I’m sure you will benefit by the powerful concepts contained in the many books he wrote.

And as Crowley and his merry band of Thelemites are known to say: “Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law; Love is the Law, Love under will!”
