About PlanetarySpells

Dramatic Portraiture - Whew!

Hi, and welcome to Planetary Spells.

I’m James, a ceremonial magician with more than twenty years of practical experience. Over the years, I have served and supported countless people by applying my magickal and spiritual knowledge to complex, difficult situations; especially where ordinary, mundane approaches have felt insufficient.

My practice is syncretic, bringing together Western and Eastern currents of occult esotericism in a way that is both personal and disciplined. My ancestry includes Western European and broadly East Asian roots, and I come from a family of spiritualists and folk-magick practitioners.

By bringing those ancestral roots together with years of study, mentorship, ritual practice, and lived experience, I have developed a system of magick that works deeply for me, and that I apply thoughtfully in service to others.

My magickal practice includes

Planetary Magick (of course)
Solomonic and Kabbalistic Magick, including work informed by the Key of Solomon
Greco-Roman, PGM-based Magick
Ceremonial Magick in the tradition of the Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn
Cyprianic Magick, including material from the Clavis Inferni and traditions associated with St. Cyprian of Antioch
Enochian Magick, without a strict Dee-purist approach
Santa Muerte–based Espiritismo and Brujería
Chaos Magick and sigil magick
Goetic Magick
Arbatel Planetary Magick
Abramelin-based Magick
Evocation informed by the Grimorium Verum
Angelic Magick
Amulet creation

I also practice

Usui Reiki — Master 3A, Shinpiden
Jikiden Reiki — Level II, Okuden
Tera-Mai Seichem — Seichem II
Tropical/Western astrology
Tarot, in various forms
Lotería divination

I have travelled internationally for years to deepen my craft, learn from mentors, and develop my practice through serious study and direct experience. My clients come from all over the world and from all walks of life.

I have also had the privilege of working with celebrities, politicians, Members of Parliament, British and European nobility, business leaders, artists, and other high-profile individuals. My work is confidential, and clients trust me with deeply personal matters and spiritual concerns.

When I am not doing magick, I enjoy watching movies, baking pastries, making delicious home-cooked meals, and drinking coffee...coffee above all other drinks.

I am based in the Pacific Northwest, primarily Vancouver, Canada.

Welcome to my practice and my world. If you have questions about my work or would like to discuss a service, please reach out through my contact form.
