Ian speaks German fluently, can read Scandinavian and Old Norse and has studied academic runology at University College London and elsewhere.

The Department of Experimental Metaphysics is guided by Lionel Snell, better known by his pen name Ramsey Dukes, author of ”SSOTBME, an essay on magic”, ”Thundersqueak” and other seminal magickal texts.

The Department’s courses encourage the exploration of relatively untrodden pathways departing from consensus reality. Techniques used rely on Austin Spare’s ”acting as if” while laying down of a thin thread of rationality to guide the seeker home.

 Insofar as the Department welcomes dangerous ideas, the object of the return is not so much ”safety” as a means to bring back treasure further to enrich and embellish consensus reality itself.

The Department of Magical Literature and Arcane Arts explores the power of words and symbols within the areas of arts and humanities.

Much of magic is seated in emotive expression and subconscious symbols. These powerful tools are directly accessed through literature, art and psychological technique

 The Department for Divination and Tantric Studies presents magic for self transformation. “Know Thyself” is the main focus and key to the mysteries. Knowing yourself is essential to magic, and it certainly helps you in knowing others.
Each course is a 6 step approach to the elements and explores their relations to chakras, plants, correspondences and influence.
Planetary magic provides an opportunity to work with the Sun through Saturn archetypes and experience their ever present, ever shifting cycles.
The Tantra4One course offers a fine tuning for the senses and a heal-thyself approach to self love. Later in the year there is a segment on the use of plant-allies in Magic and Herbalism. Includes food for thought, field trips and recipes for the do-it-yourself herbalist.

The department is led by Lola Babalon, a Psychic Consultant, Shaman, and Herbalist. www.sexpeace.net

Announcement / upcoming events:
Feb - April of 2008 I plan to revisit my European roots. During this time I will visit people and places dear to my heart in Germany, England and possibly Austria. And offer a few ceremonies and private sessions. Please check my website for more information and updates.

The Department of Gallimaufry handles interdisciplinary studies, bits and pieces that don’t fit in elsewhere, and it provides a laboratory for experimental ideas that are not addressed in the usual six week semester format. It may be used to provide lodgings for guest speakers.

From time to time Staff may present topics and material for discussion over set periods, or indeterminate periods, or whatever. They may even put up material before going on holiday and then look at the response when they get back.

Department of Gallimaufry events may occur without prior notice, its programme remains flexible and unpredictable.

Department of Liminality, Shamanism & Daemonology (DoLSD) Julian Vayne.  Department of Liminality, Shamanism & Daemonology is concerned with the induction, exploration and management of altered states of consciousness and their occult application.

Somatic techniques of exploring The Mystery are the focus of much of the Departments work. Traditional methods of trance generation (through bodywork, auditory stimulation, entheogenics and more) are combined with the latest findings in the fields of neurophysiology and information technology. Spirit entities in the widest sense are also studied in this department, from servitors to deities. In a series of laboratory environments students will have the opportunity to study a wide variety of strategies for modifying awareness, to share experiences and develop excellent practical skills.
