Viadescioism, my practice is inherently pantheistic and animistic. Because of this I find that the practice of masking in relation to the divines, the ancestors, the animals, the archetypal nature of kna(energy) and shaknao ona(souls) is a practice that comes up and is demonstrated in a lot of my rituals and acts as a form of divine absorption or shapeshifting. It primarily focuses on taking on the kna of one of these individuals through the use of masks or through the use of objects of contingent much like the idea of tag locks. It is through the application of these representation that these divine aspects of the world allow us to work with their power and to bring forth change through their cooperation. In relation to the practices of wolf magick, it is taking on the aspects of the Wolf by expressing as the wolf and incorporating aspects of it much like in the concept of an M-shift but brought on through more spiritual means and usually through the use of tools such as masks, fur, and bones (real or fabricated).
