Quiet Magic. Loud Results.

The Knotty Occultist is a queer-owned magic shop co-founded by a Hermetic mage and a Two-Headed Doctor—where quiet magic gives loud results.

Zora Lysara (formerly known as Kyaza) is a Hermeticist with 25+ years of experience in Western esotericism. They realized the promise the tradition holds out: the creation of an original—and functional—magic system that goes beyond it. The Spiral Codex is grounded in Hermetic metaphysics, built on an expanded Platonic Tetractys, rooted in symbolic resonance, and attuned to astrological fluctuation. Fusion Mediumship, the primary working method within The Spiral Codex, translates spirit-language and symbolic systems into active magical structure. This is magic built to produce results—not theatrics.

Blue Huntington is a Two-Headed Doctor and rootworker from North Carolina with 20+ years of experience in Southern Hoodoo and spiritwork. Her practice is grounded in lived tradition, ancestral lineage, and quiet functionality. Blue lends both caution and clarity to the shop’s proprietary recipes and to our overall approach to spiritwork and magic. The blend of ancestral knowledge with an emergent magical system forms the heartbeat of our practice–and our products.
