Welcome to TEA with Halo... and today's guest David Rankine! In this episode of season 4 (in a new, more traditional format) I am joined by David Rankine, Grimoire expert and practicing conjurer, and we talk about what conjuration is, the steps involved, working WITH spirits, the intersection between grimoires and folk magic, a rediscovered invocation to reinvigorate conjuration, modern innovations and inclusivity, and David's nerve-wracking encounter with a fairy queen! (among other things!)
