Jake Stratton-Kent - Glitch Bottle Podcast #006
05/06/2017 Duration: 01h29minToday on the Glitch Bottle podcast we are so excited to welcome Magician, author, scholar and grimoiric firebrand Mr. Jake Stratton Kent. It would be fair to call Jake a ‘Renaissance man’, but that would actually be doing a disservice by limiting the scope and interest of Jake’s work to just the Renaissance. His interest in magic spans the ancient, medieval, renaissance, and modern eras as well as stretching from the West to the Middle East and crucially, the New World. Jake’s been a goetic magician since 1972, making more than forty years of continuous goetic practice. His practical work integrates the magical papyri, italo-french grimoires in particular the Grimorium Verum and various African traditional religions. In this podcast, Jake shares about his take on the actual roots of goetic magic, what most magicians get wrong while approaching magic, and where he thinks magic in the 21st century is going. We also discuss the Grimoirum Verum and what this term ‘magesplaining’ is all about, and more.
