The Feast of Saint Jordanus Brunus Nolensis the Martyr
Today is the Feast of Giordano Bruno the Nolan, who proclaimed himself d'ogni legge nimico e d'ongi fede ["enemy to every law and every faith"]. Excommunicated by Catholics, Calvinists, and Lutherans, he was finally burned at the stake by the Roman Inquisition. Bruno was an original and profound theorist of the magical link and a surpassing mnemotechnician, who aspired to revive the solar worship of the ancients. Unto him may there be granted the accomplishment of his will, yea the accomplishment of his will.
