With this upcoming issue of Solitude Journal, we address artistic practices that look at the hermetic tradition and alternative communication systems inspiring change. We present a variety of artistic positions, where artistic research borders with practical magic. In spiritual terms of the Solitude Journal, we acknowledge an ongoing surge of interest in artists seeking the invisible. And the afterlife of the occult manifesting in both artistic practice and institutional programming around the world. A transhistorical importance in the occult has always been present in the arts. The ongoing wave of spirituality in arts is rooted in explorations of feminism, anticolonialism, and alternative power systems. And with this issue we are connecting fully to it. Magic is in the mind!
