| 5/30/26 | ![]() Hadean Press Podcast #37 - Geomancy & Chthonic Light - Dr Al Cummins | This month I am very happy to welcome Dr Alexander Cummins back to the show to discuss his vast library’s worth of video lectures, research and articles on historical Cunning Craft and sorcery. We discuss his research on historical Cunning traditions, the humours in food and drink, the Verum, and the manner in which Spirits are organised and work together in texts such as the Science of Nigromancy. Of course, we also hit on the use and application of stones, bones, words and herbs in our magic and have a fantastic talk on exactly why Dr Al loves the dirt-sorceries and divinations of Geomancy and how the chthonic light of spiritual malarchy brings illumination to our work. You can find all Al’s foundation courses, classes and guides on his website: www.alexandercummins.com You are also welcome to reach out to Al via email at: consultantsorcerer@gmail.com And you can find Al’s Substack, QUOTH here: https://substack.com/@quoth Other sites to keep your eye on include: https://grimoiresontape.tumblr.com/ www.instagram.com/grimoiresontape/?hl=en | 1h 44m 35s | ||||||
| 5/8/26 | ![]() Hadean Press Podcast #36 - Cyprianus - Simone Kotva | Welcome to the 3-year anniversary of the Hadean Press podcast! This month I am very happy to welcome Simone Kotva, a scholar and practitioner of mysticism and magic who has added a significant quantity of exceptional material to Hadean’s ever-growing series of publications on the subject of the sorcerous Saint Cyprian. Simone’s latest work, Cyprianus: St. Cyprian and the Black Book in Scandinavian Folklore is a translation focusing on recorded oral traditions of Cyprian, the Black School, the Devil and of course, the Book of Cyprian. This collection of myths represents a living record of the local beliefs, superstitions and above all practical advice on how to negotiate an encounter with the spirits of this most powerful book of magic. Cyprianus is available now from Hadean Press at: https://hadean.press/products/cyprian... And you can find Simone’s Substack, Techniques of Ecstasy at: Simonekotva.substack.com | 1h 36m 51s | ||||||
| 3/28/26 | ![]() Hadean Press Podcast #35 - Three Books of Occult Philosophy - Eric Purdue | In this episode we welcome Eric Purdue to the Hadean Podcast.Eric is the translator of Heinrich Cornelius Agrippa’s, ‘Three Books of Occult Philosophy’, a landmark text in the history of European Natural Philosophy, a subject which Eric assures me includes both Astrology and Magic.Woven together from a panoply of contemporary, medieval, Arabic and Hellenic sources, Agrippa produced a masterpiece of Renaissance philosophy, much maligned by centres of learning in the centuries since its first publication as superstition and debased necromancy. It is only in the modern era where we find Agrippa finally being understood and appreciated for the sheer genius of his contribution to the study and practice of the European tradition of Philosophy, and we find Magic presented as an integral aspect of Agrippa’s Catholic faith being given the dues it is worthy of by modern scholars.You can find more from Eric through his website: https://www.ericpurdue.com/ Or follow him on his Instagram at: instagram.com/traditional_esoterica/ And of course, if you haven’t already then you can find his translation of Agrippa’s Three Books of Occult Philosophy at: https://www.innertraditions.com/author/eric-purdue | 2h 07m 09s | ||||||
| 3/2/26 | ![]() Hadean Press Podcast #34 - Especially Dangerous - Mark Hewitt | In this month’s episode we welcome Mark Hewitt to the Hadean Press Podcast. In his book, ‘Especially Dangerous: The Snowshill Collection’, Mark examines a remarkable collection of objects as they evolve through history. He traces something of their origins, detailing their functions, meanings and most importantly, the alchemical transformations which occur to the narratives which conglomerate about them as they pass from location to location, custodian to custodian. Mark present the biographies of two men who were vitally important to the curation and presentation of these magical objects, namely Charles Paget Wade and Cecil Williamson, detailing how they came to be in possession of them, how the objects were presented to the public, how they were removed, re-titled and re-storied, and the influences that emanated from them as they experience this re-contextualisation travelling from the Witches Garret of Snowshill Manor to the Museum of Witchcraft in Boscastle.

Vanessa and I discuss her personal experience of negotiating and re-contextualising her relationship with Catholicism, specifically by exploring the female mystics of medieval Europe.Vanessa’s work offers us a unique window into a living and enfleshed Christian experience, which, far from denying the material body, is instead vitalised within it, as the vehicle through which divinity is experienced. This is a queer, erotic and transgressive mysticism, centred upon the women who reclaimed their autonomy from the strictures of medieval society and independently explored the divine to become some of the most phenomenal women in European history.

Simon is a veteran British magician with many years spent as an itinerant musician, now living in Berlin. In this episode we discuss the nature of the Rosary, its history and the simplicities and complexities of its use in both religion and magic, as well as discussing the porous delineation of the definitions of both of these terms. We also explore Simon’s interest in non-transcendental eschatology, the pagan roots of Catholicism, the modularity of grimoire practices, dreams, necromancy, and one of my favourite subjects, the Kings of the four parts of the world. | 49m 42s | ||||||
