13 Moons is an occult shop and academy founded by Orin Belladonna in 2015, born from a shared vision among magical academics to combat corruption not with brute force, but with knowledge. As one of the first academies dedicated to demystifying how magic truly functions across the universe, 13 Moons became a sanctuary for seekers hoping to find not only their path, but their method. It also stood at the forefront of exposing and educating about magical corruption, offering both foundational and advanced instruction. Its cornerstone course, 101: Journey Into The Mystical Arts, remains one of the only programs in the world to grant a globally recognized certificate of practice, qualifying graduates for further academic pursuits and lending them credibility as trusted practitioners.

The occult shop at 13 Moons offers a thoughtfully curated selection of apothecary essentials and altar supplies, ensuring both novice and seasoned practitioners can restock with ease. The academy is also a proud participant in the Academic Guild, a coalition of magically inclined scholars and educators who champion transparency, education, and unity. Through the Guild’s collaborative network, known as The Spider Web: 13 Moons shares research updates, documents corruption case studies, and helps catalogue rare magical artifacts, tomes, and materials for academic use worldwide.
