He also has experience being involved in other traditions and orders. Oracle is a practicing priest of the goddess Hekate and a devotee of the god Dionysos. He has been a priest of the goddess since 2009 and has taught others in her mysteries. He lives in east central Florida.

“While I was reading Strix Craft, I felt the ways of the ancient practitioners of magic pouring out from the pages through a contemporary perspective. It is an accomplishment to convey the wisdom of these long-ago magicians in an engaging and informative manner. As someone who has spent years studying the writings of such practitioners, I was impressed by Oracle Hekataios’s ability to honor their ways while conveying practical ways to adapt these teachings for anyone interested in diving into their mysteries. With the historical foundations as sound as the practices, Strix Craft makes an excellent addition to the witch's bookshelf.” ―Cyndi Brannen, author of Entering Hekate’s Garden
