  1. Profiling New Spirits

    Profiling New Spirits

    Sfinga and Key tackle another hotly-requested topic: how to identify, divine on, and profile new spirits that may be approaching your court. In addition to considering temporary wanderers, distant allies of your spirits that may be stopping by to visit, and also those interested in coming by for only a season or a year, they consider some of the signs by which to recognize the activity of a new being that is staying around and how best to verify their presence and qualities through divination and the authority and protection of your existing spirits and ancestors. The Dragon and Owl also discuss some of the tools they bring to a spiritual court investigation and how folks can come to tease out and understand the qualities of new spirits from the background of ambient existing phenomena.  Support us on patreon.com/TheFrightfulHowls .
