Description

This is part 1 of the Season 1 finale of Mancy. In this episode RJ discusses the ancient history of Sex Magic, spellwork through sexual action. This includes the ancient origin of Edging and sex magic in ancient china. RJ and Elle also discuss the importance of sex positivity and the dangers of sexual repression. The Extra Spell is about sacred prostitution and how it may have inspired some of the intimacy therapy that exists today.  Moving into the 19th Century, RJ discusses the Sex Magic of Aleister Crowley and does a short biography of Ida Craddock. The extreme censorship of the 19th century brought about by Anthony Comstock and his Comstock laws butted heads with Ida's progressive literature about sex magic. Afterward, RJ starts the biography of Australian artist and sex magician Rosaleen Norton. 
Elle performs Phallomancy using an oracle deck of various penis cards for Madazon Can-Can.
