Achlys in the Houses

Achlys in a house shows where the child learned that bringing that house’s core needs or functions into the early relationship would be met with minimisation, coldness, withdrawal, or humiliation.

Bring the Lamps Back In

In the house of the soul, there is a room where the lamps have been stolen. Not simply extinguished, but quietly removed while we were otherwise engaged. This is the work of Achlys, the Goddess of misery and mist who hides from our sight that which would deliver only sorrow...

Illusion’s Half-Life: Achlys, Orcus, and the Moment of Exposure

We are beginning to work with Achlysian energies as they are slowly revealed. We don’t have the specific psychological mechanisms yet, but we can posit the probable drivers of them.

Achlys Cazimi – the Beautiful Illusion, and its Denouement
