Finding a teacher in the ways of magic

When I first stepped onto the path of magic and spirituality, I desperately yearned for a teacher. I longed for someone who had already tread that path that I tried to walk and had acquired the skills I ferociously sought after.

I wanted a teacher to warn me when I was doing something wrong or I was going down a dead end in my studies. I wanted a teacher who give me explicit practices to engage in that would get me the magical power I wanted, and then could monitor my progress.

Eventually I found such a teacher, and my life has never been the same. The rate of my magical development saw a quantum upleveling because I found someone who had access to the skills that I so desperately wanted. It cut decades off my magical development and tremendously accelerated my practices. Within several weeks time, I could start remote viewing, seeing auras, and projecting chi for healing - skills I couldn’t access before.

I got really lucky. I wanted to be a real mage with some serious magical power and spiritual connection, and I found such a mage.

Unfortunately, many people don’t find such teachers, and spend their magical career going from book to book and blog to blog. Because there are hundreds, if not thousands of people who are desperately looking for spiritual insight, a way to contact spirits, and reliable methods to awakening their own magical power.

And that’s part of what made me decide to move beyond just giving natal chart readings, and start making myself available to teach all the aspects of magic and spirituality that I consistently practice and love so much. If you are looking for a magician under whom you can apprentice in order to gain effective magical skills, then you’ve come to the right place.

About me and my practice

There are a myriad of magical traditions, approaches, and skills, which contribute to mind-splitting confusion for beginners who are just starting out. I want to tell you more about my approach to see if where I am is the same as where you would like to go.

My name is Merlin. I am an accomplished astrological diviner, conjuror, and energy worker.

As a diviner, I predict the future and determine purpose and destiny for my clients. Using the natal chart, I can determine my clients spiritual focus, energetic makeup, and destiny. I am a classical astrologer who reads Ancient Greek, Latin, and Sanskrit. I have studied and practiced astrology for ten years, and have read many of the foundational texts in my tradition in their original languages.

I have an exceptional track record for making accurate and concrete predictions about the future. It is by far the dominant focus of my astrological practice, as this is what astrology was originally used for in most instances.

As a conjuror, I engage in ritual and ceremonial magic to summon spirits from other planes. I have spent the past ten years consistently practicing astrological magic and forming relationships with the spirits. When I do a magical ritual, I am working off a rapport and relationship with spirits that I have cultivated for the past decade. I work with spirits from planetary spheres and spirits and group-entities from the realm of the stars. I also work very closely with nature spirits, as well as spirits of the deceased when needed.

As an energy worker, I work very closely with the magical power contained within the human vessel. This kind of work significantly empowers other forms of magic, but energy workers will also project their magical power for healing purposes. At higher levels, one’s own magical power can be used for conscious astral projection, influencing the weather, and controlling the elements.

My personal practice includes ashtanga yoga, breathwork, daoist meditation, inner alchemy, qigong, and baguazhang. I am also an avid practitioner of the Wim Hof Method and have studied primitive skills at the Tom Brown Tracker School. I engage in 2-3 hours of spiritual practice every single day to keep my own energy clear and my connection to the spirits clean and authentic. My wife and I both live a very monastic lifestyle where we are either engaging in practices, being of service with our crafts, or researching and learning more about the magical practices we love so much.

“Merlin is to the point in his development as a counselor/spiritual teacher that he affects your energetic bodies positively just by being in his presence. The more I work with him, the more it seems that the sky is the limit for healing as well as life possibilities that seemed completely unreachable before. It is truly miraculous.” - Rose T

“Working with Merlin is like having a direct line to the Ancients themselves. His extensive knowledge of the classical texts made me feel like I was studying the mysteries in an Elysian temple. I felt like I was studying under Plato himself. I knew I was in really good hands.” - Kristina B

Here’s what we can do together

My apprenticeships have gone in a myriad of directions, depending on the focuses and intended educational path of the student. Some of the topics I have done with apprentices include:

  • Directing spiritual practice and monitering progress

  • Deep analysis of natal chart, past events and energetic patterning, and future trajectory and circumstances.

  • Horoscopic tutoring

  • Ritual teaching

  • Spiritual and holistic guidance

  • Journeywork

  • In-depth studies of ritual magic and energy work.

Working with Merlin was a quantum uplevel for my Astrology practice. My confidence in my readings and my ability to delineate another's individual’s birth chart is next level. They don’t make Astrologers like him anymore! Merlin is the real deal and a true master. - Anonymous

With each reading, Matthew helps to deepen an understanding of myself, and my relationship to the world, through the lens of astrology. His extensive knowledge paired with intuition and genuine compassion have led to invaluable openings and healing within myself that continue to grow. It’s truly a life-altering experience. - Kaysea M
