WHAT ARE SPIRITS LIKE?

I wanted to write this post today and lift up a brilliant and insightful colleague-teacher of mine, Harper Feist. I had the privilege of recently hearing her podcast interview with Alex Eth on Glitch Bottle, and it is FANTASTIC. By the way, if you are not listening to Glitch Bottle, you are missing out on a substantial occult resource for your practice!

 

I will not discuss everything Harper spoke about because I think hearing her voice and perspective from her “horse’s mouth” is very important. Many people, students, and strangers, approach me and ask me about working with spirits. If it is something you’ve never done or had anyone teach you, it can be hard to get into. This is not because spirit work is overly complicated (it doesn’t have to be) but because we have so much social conditioning on us that all of that can create problems and challenges. Harper speaks directly to this, too, but from her life experiences and practices. Hearing her stories crystallizes many things, even for a worker such as myself who has also been at this for a while.

 

What also sets her apart from many is that she is a scientist and an occultist. That’s a perspective, publicly, that we rarely see. Her way of seeing things from both worlds and then tying that to her scrying spirit work is fascinating and a feast for the ears! It is the kind of thing that sparks inspiration and imagination. Both are important for any spirit work because they are the keys to opening our own spirits to do the work well.

 

The last thing I will say for now (besides, again, to subscribe to Glitch Bottle!) is that Harper also teaches her own course on how to experience spirits through scrying. I will write about scrying another time, but in short, it is the art of perceiving spirits through reflective mediums. From listening to Harper, I know, however, that her version of scrying is more extensive than this and has more to do with developing the spiritual muscles to perceive spirits. Every spirit-based practice I do stresses this part as essential to growth. The good news is that Harper did just that with her class!

 

The course is still open, and I warmly encourage you to take her course if you want to learn a sure-fire way of understanding what spirits are like. The link is here: https://www.theblackthorneschool.com/courses/scrying/.

 

Check the class out—you’ll be glad you did!
