BEGINS NOVEMBER 5TH

21 Days of Mirror Magic, Shadow Alchemy & Self-Seduction Practice

 

You feel it in your body.

The learned shame.

The impossible standards of perfectionist gay culture telling you you're never quite enough.  

Maybe you see yourself through the eyes of judgment instead of desire.

Maybe you've forgotten how to look at yourself the way you'd look at a lover: with hunger, appreciation, reverence.

Maybe you've lost touch with the erotic art of self-devotion.  

That changes now.  

The Initiation: 21 days of mirror work to remember you are divine creation worthy of your own desire.

Are you ready to seduce yourself back into love: with your reflection, your body, and this wild beautiful life?

The mirror isn't the problem.

The spells you've been taught to cast on yourself while looking in it are.

The Ancient Magic of Mirrors

 

Across cultures, mirrors have been understood as portals - gateways between worlds, tools for divination, and instruments of transformation.

 

Ancient Egyptians saw them as "eyes of the soul." Persian mystics used them to block evil spirits. Chinese masters employed them to redirect energy and reveal truth.

 

But somewhere along the way, we forgot this sacred technology and turned mirrors into weapons of self-destruction.

 

It's time to reclaim their original power.

Your 21-Day Journey Through the Three Worlds

Three weeks. Three shamanic realms. Total transformation.
In shamanic traditions worldwide, reality exists in three interconnected worlds: the Lower World of shadow and healing, the Upper World of divine wisdom and vision, and the Middle World of integration.
Your mirror becomes the portal between worlds.

Week 1: Shadow Mirror Work - Polishing the Mirror

 

Descend into the Lower World to clear the grime of internalized shame. We'll work with the parts you've rejected and the self-criticism that keeps you small. Through somatic shadow integration, you'll polish away decades of conditioning to reveal your authentic reflection underneath.

Week 2: Golden Mirror Work - Developing Clear Vision 

 

Rise into the Upper World to reprogram your subconscious beliefs and receive golden wisdom. Through relaxed states of awareness, we'll install divine perspectives about your worth and beauty. You'll learn to see yourself as radiant, precious, and worthy of reverence.

Week 3: Erotic Mirror Work - The Art of Self-Seduction

 

Integrate through embodied self-love and erotic sovereignty. Learn to seduce yourself through the mirror: not just your body, but your whole being. Desire, sensual pleasure, and embodied experience become tools for self-worship and creative power.

WHY THIS WORK MATTERS NOW

In a political climate where our rights are under constant attack and our very existence is being legislated against, the world needs queer men who are courageous, activated, and unashamed. But until we learn to fully love and accept ourselves—until we can see ourselves clearly—we can't be medicine for others.

The world needs us with 20/20 vision. Every queer man walking around carrying shame and self-rejection is a healer disconnected from his power. The mirror is just that: a mirror. It will reveal everything about ourselves and help us integrate all of it, so we can feel more resourced and courageous enough to stand in our truth no matter what they try to take from us.

When we stop running from our reflection and start courting it, we become walking permission slips for other queer people to love themselves that deeply too. This is how we become the medicine this world desperately needs.

Why I Created This Work

 

I spent my twenties as an actor and model in West Hollywood: the epicenter of gay perfectionism. Taking selfies in every mirror I could find, seeking validation and surrounded by impossible standards, I destroyed my self-image trying to be younger, more muscular, more perfect. The very place that should have celebrated my queerness became another mirror reflecting back all the ways I wasn't enough.

Mirror work saved me. What started as looking into my own eyes each morning whispering tender affirmations, became a journey home to myself. I learned that self-love isn't a destination, it's a daily practice of radical acceptance.

I created this program because mirror work cuts through all the spiritual bypassing straight to what matters: learning to love yourself so fully that your very presence becomes medicine for others.

Weekly Challenges & Community Adventures

 
Beyond the daily mirror work, each week includes community challenges designed to deepen your transformation and build sacred brotherhood.
The Signal group becomes your container for raw truth-telling, celebration, and the kind of intimate witnessing that only happens in conscious queer community. 

WEEK 1: SHADOW CHALLENGES

What must die: The voices of perfectionist gay culture, impossible beauty standards, and the learned habit of seeing yourself through critical eyes.

Daily Practice: Shadow mirror work, releasing inherited shame, meeting the parts of yourself you've been trained to reject.

Sacred Tech: Conscious death practices to release what no longer serves your authentic self-image.

WEEK 2: GOLDEN CHALLENGES

What emerges: The capacity to see yourself as sacred creation, divine art, worthy of reverence and celebration.

Daily Practice: Light mirror work, appreciation practices, seeing yourself through the eyes of unconditional love.

Sacred Tech: Visioning practices to remember who you truly are beyond social conditioning by reprogramming your subconscious beliefs.

WEEK 3: EROTIC CHALLENGES

What you become: A man who relates to his reflection with erotic reverence: alive, appreciative, celebratory.

Daily Practice: Erotic mirror work, embodied self-love, claiming your beauty and pleasure as medicine for the world.

Sacred Tech: Integration sensual practices that anchor this new way of seeing into your daily life.

The Somatic Science & Subconscious Reprogramming

This isn't just positive thinking. Every mirror exercise is designed to rewire your nervous system and reprogram your subconscious beliefs at the cellular level. When we look in the mirror with judgment, our body registers threat and activates stress responses. When we practice embodied self-love through sacred reflection, we activate the parasympathetic nervous system - the state where healing, creativity, and connection flourish.

You'll learn specific somatic techniques - breath work, gentle touch, vocal toning - that help your body feel the love you're speaking to yourself. We'll work with relaxed states of consciousness - the optimal conditions for subconscious reprogramming - to literally install new beliefs about your worth, beauty, and power.

Through repetition and somatic embodiment, we'll override decades of conditioning with new neural pathways that support your authentic self-perception. Because lasting transformation happens in the body, not just the mind.

THE EROTIC ART OF SELF-DEVOTION

Patriarchy taught us to see our bodies as problems to solve rather than temples to worship. Gay culture added its own poison: impossible beauty standards that keep us performing instead of feeling. But here's what the deepest erotic work understands: the erotic is about feeling, not performing. It's about senses, intuition, knowing your body as sacred technology. When we bring erotic aliveness to mirror work, we activate the very neural pathways that support healing, creativity, and deep self-connection.

When you learn to see yourself through the eyes of desire instead of judgment, when you practice embodied appreciation for your own beauty, you become walking permission for other queer men to love themselves that wildly too.

Your self-seduction becomes activism.

Your pleasure becomes prayer.

Your mirror becomes portal to the erotic wholeness this world desperately needs.
