I received this beautiful gift from my dear friend and Tata Jesse Hathaway and I couldn’t be more thrilled!

The Tarot Yohualli Ehécatl, created by Chicome Itzcuintli Amatlapalli, Mexican Artist is an absolutely stunning deck. The artwork is incredible, rich in symbolism, and full of character.

Such a thoughtful and meaningful gift from my Tata. I’m completely in love with it!

I’m so incredibly thankful for the close friends and teachers I have in my life. You guys mean the world to me, and I’m truly grateful for your friendship, guidance, and continued support.

Thank tata so much for this wonderful gift and for always being part of my journey. It means more to me than words can express!

Tonight’s release is now live at Manticore’s Den.

After weeks of preparation, several projects I’ve been working on are finally making their way into the shop.

Leading the release is The Crossroads Collection: Halloween Edition, my first limited blind box collection. Only 50 boxes were produced, each containing a mystery conjure packet accompanied by an oil specially prepared for this release.

I’m also introducing Horned Crown of Success, a special edition oil previously exclusive to my Horned Keeper skulls, now available in a small batch of its own.

Joining the release are the Fortune Road vigil candles, handmade in collaboration with Page of Wands Candles, combining their craftsmanship with my own conjure powders, oils, and sigil work.

For those interested in Thai sorcery, I’ve brought in a few additions crafted by my teacher, Ajarn Apichai of Chiang Mai. These include the Emperor’s Treasure Takruts, the Medusa Locket, and the Ai Ngang Taa Daeng amulet, each carrying its own distinct purpose and character.

Some of these pieces are available in extremely limited quantities, and once they’re gone, there’s no telling when they’ll return.

You can explore tonight’s release at www.manticoresden.com

Always a good time at the Renaissance Faire, but even better when we get to visit friends.

Stopped by to see Albion Grove and Gili Lochner , hung out for a bit, and of course left with some cool stuff from their shop. They always have awesome handmade pieces, and as a crafter myself, I really appreciate the time, skill, and effort that goes into making things by hand.

If you’re in Connecticut, definitely go check them out and show them some love.

Not too long ago, I received a gift from my dearest friend Sfinga 🐉 — a prayer rope from their St. Cyprian project of prayer ropes and Horns of the Sorcerer.

I completely love the dedication and work put into these pieces. The prayer rope has become something I work with regularly at my shrine and has found its place among the few personal pieces I keep close in practice, alongside the medallions I’ve made with Ajarn Apichai.

Beautiful work, made with purpose, and deeply appreciated.
🙏🏽

THE UNDYING FLAME

Made for the artist who refuses to let the fire die.

Built around guitar picks personally signed by Zakk Wylde, The Undying Flame is a limited series of handmade amulets created for musicians, tattooers, painters, writers and those whose hands are driven to create.

Its purpose:

To awaken inspiration when the well runs dry.
To strengthen confidence in your own work.
To sharpen the creative and spiritual eye.
To encourage perseverance when creation becomes difficult.
To support success in your craft.
To protect the artist while doing the work.

Each amulet carries a spiritual body formulated through divination, followed by eight days of preparation and empowerment here at Manticore’s Den. The materia then traveled to Chiang Mai, where Ajarn Apichai blended it with sacred powders from his own practice, incorporated takruts, completed the construction and carried the pieces through further Thai temple blessings.

Two sorcerers. Two countries. Different traditions working toward one purpose:

Keep the fire burning.

Only 5 hand-tooled silver editions and 7 waterproof editions exist.

Residents were left confused this morning after newly translated scrolls claimed local tattoo artist Gary Noriyuki is celebrating his 777th birthday this week. According to the documents, he was abducted as an infant from a Krishna monastery by a ninja-trained raccoon during the Great Civil War after his evil father sealed an ancient demon inside the child. The prophecy warned that extraterrestrial invaders would one day descend upon Earth, but the demon would ultimately become humanity’s only hope. Archaeologists have declined to comment after multiple raccoons were observed standing on two legs near the excavation site before disappearing into the woods.
As far as you know, this is simply one of the many talents of tattoo artist Gary Noriyuki, who is currently tattooing and accepting appointments throughout the month of August at Phoenix Ink Tattoo in Southington, Connecticut. Authorities continue to advise the public not to make eye contact with unusually disciplined raccoons until further notice.

Open Roads & Wealth Rite — Full Moon Working

When money slows down and opportunities stop showing up, something needs to shift.

On the night of the Full Moon, I’ll be performing a focused candle rite to draw in financial movement, open roads, and expand the conditions around your work, income, and direction. This isn’t just about bringing money in—it’s about opening new ways for it to reach you.

This working is set to attract clients, create opportunities, and break through the kind of stagnation that keeps things stuck or repeating.

Your birth name and date of birth will be placed into the working and worked under the Full Moon. Each case is handled individually.

Candles are fixed with in-house powders and a custom oil blend, built from my own practice and knowledge and directed specifically for this rite.

If money has been delayed, inconsistent, or blocked—this is where things begin to move again.

Limited space.

Ajarn Apichai’s Jupiter Candle Rite — May 17

On May 31st, Jupiter enters its exalted state (Maha-Ut)—a rare 12-year shift where its power reaches full strength and begins to correct the current.

In Thai astrology, Jupiter is the great benefic—the force behind fortune, wisdom, expansion, and opportunity. When aligned, it opens the road. When not, it brings obstacles.

This candle rite is done to honor and align with that force.

If the current favors you, it amplifies success.
If not, it shields and stabilizes.

What it does:
– Strengthens Jupiter in your life
– Draws in luck, wealth, and opportunity
– Deepens connection to teachers, spirits, and amulets
– Supports study, mastery, and clarity
– Helps navigate obstacles with precision

There’s an old belief—honor Jupiter consistently, and even the harshest paths begin to bend.
