PRAGMAGICK #13 “ORACLE” w/ Elizabeth Kennamer of The Book Of Beasts (Occult, Mysticism)
“I Teach Communion With Other Consciousnesses”
Elizabeth Kennamer is an ORACLE. And no, I don’t mean to appropriate this mystical term in a cheeky, pretentious fashion to mean “otherworldy artist.” No need to force the mystére on Kennamer’s already brilliant, preternatural art… I mean to say Elizabeth is a modern oracle, and I mean that quite literally…
Elizabeth channels and consorts with unseen things; namely deities and mythological beings from the long, popular pantheon of humankind’s folklore. But not just for artistic purposes, you see, they give her things; metaphysical methods everyone can employ are transmitted to her. In fact, these methods aim to help elevate human consciousness and should employ. It’s the crusader in Elizabeth that intends to spread these “involution” practices (to facilitate the metaphysical journey, or help illuminate long-dimmed psychic senses and to recalibrate “Karmic Pools”) far and wide. As a modest conduit, she believes in “proofs,” as every critical thinker should, but more importantly, she allows the practices to speak for themselves.
Oh, and she introduced me to Hecate. Well, sort of…

I had the pleasure of receiving an introductory session to what I consider her Occult Therapy. Visiting her lovely home, I saw first-hand her brilliant paintings and artworks, her impressive tattoo studio (yes, she’s also a professional tattoo artist) and embarked on a guided meditation through the ten spheres of the Hermetic Qabalistic Tree of Life. This is where she introduced me to Hecate, and I’ve been consulting Hecate and Hermes every day since, that is, through this simple and brilliant exercise. In the following interview, you’ll hear about that initiatory experience and the psychedelic, cinematic and enlightening practice it has become for me.
“Clairvoyance is a birthright”
Do I believe this journey to be outside of the “mineral” plane? Yes and no. Do I believe I’m actually communing with Hecate, or is she just my subconscious, archetypal construction of Hecate? Doesn’t matter. The practice itself has yielded hitherto unknown information only later to be corroborated via research (my interpretation of each sphere was almost textbook, and as someone who hasn’t studied the spheres thoroughly, that was impressive). It’s worth investigating, and if you were to hark on only it’s psychological merits it would still prove to be a valuable practice.
I’m so impressed about the benefits of the TREE OF LIFE meditation that I’ve asked her to workshop some techniques at an intimate WE THE HALLOWED salon and live podcast on JANUARY 27th.
This is event is limited to W†H Members, however, if you are in the Portland area and would like to participate, we have a few spots available for a small ticket price. Please e-mail pragmagick@gmail.com or message through the PRAGMAGICK FACEBOOK for more information.
Be sure to listen to the full, unedited interview on PATREON ($1 dollar tier and above) to hear Elizabeth talk more intimately about her purpose as “Image Consultant” to misunderstood, notorious deities (such as Medusa and Lucifer) by helping to rectify their soured reputations. She also has a fascinating take on the modern obsession with Ancestral Magic and how ancestors aren’t always as well-intentioned as some might think. She also talks about how Western Astrology is off, how tattooing is a sacred occult practice and gives more insight her custom “Involution” services. Sincerely, not to be missed!
