Paglini walks through escalating levels of sexual magic, beginning with basic attraction rituals using imitative and sympathetic techniques, red candles, and visualization. She describes a whispered binding technique performed while a partner sleeps, and an ancient blood moon ritual using menstrual blood as the ultimate binding agent, a practice she says dates back tens of thousands of years. She emphasizes that power itself is neutral and only intent determines whether magic serves positive or harmful ends.
The conversation turns darker as Paglini addresses astral projection used for sexual assault, incubi and succubi that feed on human sexual energy, and practitioners who deliberately steal partners through sustained magical interference. Art raises the flood of emails from women describing being held down and violated by invisible forces, and Paglini confirms she regularly combats such attacks as a spiritual warrior.
Key Moments
The ethics of imposing your will: Art presses Paglini on the ethics of sex magic - if it works, you're imposing your intentions on another person. She concedes the power is neutral and many practitioners cross the line.
Moon timing for spellwork: Paglini explains the lunar mechanics of practical magic: waxing moon for attraction, waning for separation, full or new moon for extra power, with evening as the optimal hour while the target sleeps.
Menstrual blood as binding agent: Paglini reveals the ancient binding ritual: three drops of menstrual blood mixed into wine or food to bind a partner sexually across this life and the next - material rarely shared by practitioners.
Telling psychic attack from bad luck: Paglini answers Art's discernment question: ordinary bad luck has ups and downs and ends, but a spell rains in from every direction at once - prosperity, then health, then emotions, then relationships.
Astral rape and the incubus: Paglini confirms practitioners use astral projection, familiars, doppelgangers, and incubus/succubus entities to sexually attack unwilling victims - 'a way of raping and not getting caught.'
