Guess what? It’s time to replace that worn old copy of your favourite Arthurian film! ARROW VIDEO is just about to release a brand new deluxe edition of EXCALIBUR! Always good news to hear that a film you love is getting the royal treatment, but I’m particularly chuffed because I have an essay in the…

Occult Humanities 2025
OCCULT HUMANITIES 2025 I’m always eager to attend this event which combines great speakers, art, and a variety of vendors — as well as the usual NYC attractions: a bit of art with Stephanie and a chance to catch up with Katja (not to mention a couple of quite good restaurants!). It was a relatively…
#DressDreamsDesire @ FIT
After the 9 @ Nagas, we strolled down to the Museum at the Fashion Institute of Technology — actually we had a very good lunch first at Kame Ramen. Then we headed over for Dress, Dreams & Desire curated by Dr Valerie Steele, who is also director of the Museum. I love art you can…
9 Women @ Nagas
In order to restore some order to life, the universe and this blog, I am backtracking to when it all became overwhelming which would be mid-October and yes — ha! — it’s getting on the last part of November, but maybe this week I can endeavour to catch up a little. I do mostly write…
Featured at TABI
Over at the TABI blog I’m featured in a series they’re calling ‘My Tarot Journey’ — all about how you got into tarot and where it’s taken you so far. You don’t have to join to read this one! Of course I’m going to encourage you to do so anyway because it’s a real bargain…
The Devil’s Manacles!
THE DEVIL’S MANACLES! There are two kinds of people in the world: those who think socks are fluffy and cosy — and those who know the truth! They are a trap of the dark satanic forces! When you walk through the door, do you kick off your shoes and peel off those diabolical skins? Then…
Sound & Vision: Cunning Folk Magazine
The new issue of Cunning Folk Magazine is out and includes a piece by me on medieval magic and sound as well as a wide range of fascinating work by other folks that will doubtless charm and inspire you. As usual: we are really in a golden age of beautiful little magazines that bring together…
TABI Midwinter Conference
I’m delighted to announce that I’ll be talking about my translation The Art of Drawing Cards and The Tarot at the TABI Midwinter Conference 24-5 January. I’m just one of a dozen speakers that weekend so what a great opportunity for TABI members. What’s TABI? The Tarot Association of British and International members. While it…
500 Students Can’t Be Wrong
Okay, not quite a swipe on this famous swipe, but in the same spirit of cheeky fun and a little braggadocio, I’m pleased to note that my courses on Udemy reached the 500 milestone this week, which seems something worth celebrating. There are only two courses at present: But the new course UNLOCKING CREATIVITY will…
Johanna Dumet: Fool for a Lifetime
Circling around all the things that went on in Berlin: so much! So many glories to experience. Art everywhere and have I gone on at length about the sheer wonder of a modern city with affordable, convenient 24/7 public transportation? Well, I will at the drop of a hat. Drop a hat and see! Johanna…
