Notice: Ending the reservation system

If you have worked with me before, chances are you may be aware that I do allow reservations for spellwork. Most of the time, it's either due to clients having a different degree of readiness, or in the case that they cannot presently afford the spellwork and choose not to go over a payment plan.

This reservation system allowed clients to be confident that spell availability was there for them after a certain period of time. Anything exclusive or unavailable after a few rituals would be gone forever, and that itself would render the average client's chances to getting said spellwork incredibly slim.

However, reserving these spells is a privilege. It's important for people to know that I'm pulling something off the "shelves" for them so that they can make the later commitment to get the spellwork done for them. This means that I'm taking away the chances from others to get spellwork, and these may also be individuals who are ready for it to get done for them as soon as possible.

Over time I've gotten a number of concerns from clients, both new and old: that the reservations have become unfair. Some clients have been holding, and reserving certain listings for months, to even years, with showing little promise they'll ever move forward it. And clients who do want that spellwork done for them now are getting upset. This is a problem.

As much as I would like to honor my clients who do reserve. After countless instances of other clients hoarding listings for extended periods of time: I'm going to end the reservation system.

As much as it bothers clients that something they want is unavailable, it stresses me out as a magus due to how ridiculous some of these reservations have gone long for.

Now, I'm going to give my clients the benefit of the doubt. Those who still have spellwork reserved. I will keep them reserved, however anything reserved more than 1 year will be knocked off the reserve list. If it's gone from the listings, then all I gotta say is "tough luck" someone sought it out more than you have.

Aside from that, I will not be taking any further reservations. I hope you all understand, as this has been a growing ordeal for everyone.

I will be updating this blog more frequently.

Enforcing Common Sense in a Ritual

I think its rather important that people take the time to understand that.. Although spellwork is the manipulation of energy, and pulls at the strings of the cosmos: This does not in any way disarm any universal laws, nor does it mean that the concept of common sense is to be dropped. Just because you have an arsenal of energy and power; does not mean that you can lounge around and play stupid. I've had a colorful mix of clients from many backgrounds, occupations, and social scenes, and to this day I will get the rare sod who will complain to me about their spellwork not manifesting right, or that it's not working at all. Usually through a few exchanges of emails it comes to my attention that the said client hasn't done anything to follow up the ritual. They just expected the world was just going to fall on their lap after the spell. Which is a load of crap because spellwork needs you to move in order to move it. Let's start by listing some things. If I casted a love/Lu

The Practices of James

You all know me by either Planetaryspells, or James. Chances are by the art, and icons that are posted on my services/products on my booth, you may see a series of pentacles, and alternate forms of art on there. Lot's seem pulled from grimoires like the Clavicula Salomonis However take note that my practices are not Solomonic in nature. I feel the need to share what I actually practice as those who are more familiar and seasoned can know what I do, and will know how to work with me more efficiently if they so require my service. I follow both the LHP and the RHP, though I point more towards the LHP (Left hand Path) as the path is more beneficial in serving those here on earth, and fulfills them in ways they desire, rather than in ways just exclusively spiritual. While, yes; Spellwork is very spiritual. I would actually want things such as my money spells to actually get you the money you requested, rather than some high-strung angelic "spirit journey" telling you that &qu

Let's talk about Negative Feedback

I've actually been wanting to cover this topic for quite some time, but never got around it due to time constraints, working with other clients, and other topics that seemed to have fetched a higher priority than this one. But due to the recent happening as of late, I feel like this is something worth addressing. So as of yesterday, In my 20+ years of practice, I've received my first ever negative feedback. I guess there is a first for everything, don't you think? Now there's a couple of things I really want to talk about when it comes to something along the lines of negative feedback. I want to make it very clear that I am not someone who doesn't like negative feedback. I think constructive criticism is important in anyone's practice, and gives others a better perspective on what strengths and weaknesses to work on. But one thing I do have a bone to pick about when it comes to negative feedback, are the ones that are hostile in nature, offer no substance, and j
