Before we get started, some very good news regarding the upgrading of both CrowAcademy.com as well as ArcaneAdvice.com….
Both websites now work WONDERFULLY on all Smartphones and Tablets, adapting to whatever screen you are using to read or watch Crow Academy content. You will find the same exact articles, news, insights and information, as well as an easy-to-use, automatic customized Menu for smaller screens.
You may also have noticed the new format of the Disclaimer page when you first arrive at The Crow Academy website. To be perfectly clear for anyone wondering why we use a cookie at all, the way that “accept a cookie or not” option now works is that if you accept it you Never See The Disclaimer Again (unless of course you delete the cookie). That is literally all the cookie does.
If you choose not to accept the cookie, YES you can Still Enter The Website and you will not see the Disclaimer for ONE DAY after which the Disclaimer will show up again.
Regarding Privacy: not only does the cookie NOT record anything else at all, but all of us here at The Crow Academy are also MASSIVE PRIVACY ADVOCATES, and there is not one single thing about you that we would ever share with anyone EVER.

TWO New ARCANE ADVICE Lessons Now Up!
(Excerpts Below – the links to take you directly to the Lesson on ArcaneAdvice.com)
______________________
The Dominant Phoenix – Growing Stronger From Your Mistakes
An earnest Dom wrote to me describing a Master / slave relationship which had failed. He wanted to know what he could look at to see what went wrong, and how he could discern if it was his own fault for not being able to lead properly, or if the sub was someone who despite claims of wanting to submit was actually someone who refuses to give up control.
Let me take this moment to say that ANY Dom/me, male or female, who desires to Improve and become Better as a Dom/me INSTANTLY has my respect. As The Crow Academy philosophy states, we are all eternal Students. We can all grow and improve in some way every day, and if this is your attitude towards BDSM and D/s then you are certainly on a Good Path.
As this particular Dom pointed out, even the strongest, most knowledgable Master cannot lead someone who refuses to follow. He wanted to know how to tell if the submissive was only refusing to follow, or if it was his lack of skills and knowledge, or even if the problem was the sub’s lack of coming to terms with her needing to remain in control.
In my answer to this gentleman, I point out that there are in fact many kinds of submissive, and finding the right match in terms of skill level and how deeply you both wish to go into D/s can make a world of difference in the longevity of the relationship. I also point out a few key factors that any Dom needs to consider in appraising a new submissive, as well as a few common traps to avoid. Lastly I give some tips to help avoid “Dominant burn-out”…..

Maintaining D/s Feelings at Your Job
I received a most interesting letter from an officer of the law in a foreign country who had huge responsibilities around the clock including emergency response. In their private life they were a submissive to another officer, and they were asking me how to balance the two worlds – one world of tremendous responsibility and a crystal clear desire to be very good at their career, and the other world of deeply passionate submission to their Dominant partner. Nonetheless, they perceived a conflict in these two worlds and asked my help in balancing their career and their D/s desires.
I thought this would be an excellent lesson to share with everyone since most careers do not require the absolute intensity of being an officer with additional emergency response duties. Many people have similar problems balancing their career and their D/s Life, so my thought was that if this officer can do it then anyone can. It’s all about Compartmentalizing – being able to give proper focus to the current situation and mentally putting aside other times and places…..

One Hour of FREE Crow Academy Workshop Videos!
Everyone here at The Crow Academy is overjoyed at how much the public is loving this Six-Part “Dominance & Submission Basics” Video Series created from Master Arcane’s presentation at the Limitless Man Conference in Las Vegas, Nevada. At the time of this writing this video series has already amassed almost 100,000 views (!!!) and that number is growing by hundreds every day! We couldn’t be happier.
Presented by Master Arcane himself along with the assistance of slave Daphne, this Six-Part Video Series takes you right inside the world of Master Arcane’s private and rare live workshops. Step right into the audience as these six videos will give you guidance to many of the questions you have, answered directly by Master Arcane himself.
Attendees of the Limitless Conference paid over $200 per person to sit in the audience with Master Arcane and other exceptional teachers, but as of now The Crow Academy is sharing the Full Six-Part Video Series of this workshop with the world FOR FREE!
Yep, that’s right: Absolutely FREE.
No strings attached at all, whatsoever.
Just like all the lessons on the Arcane Advice website, which have always been free, sometimes we just want to give stuff to the Global BDSM Community as our gift to the kinky world we love.
There are two ways to watch the Full Six Part Series:
1) On YouTube, where you must be logged in, as the content is considered “adult” in nature:
(note that you can also simply go to YouTube and search for “Master Arcane Crow”)
2) Right from The Crow Academy Website where you can watch anytime, without hassle:

Regarding Crow Academy Classes and Seminars in Your Area
As the demand for Crow Academy Classes and Seminars grows, we are doing our best to make ourselves available to teach more and more Seminars around the world. On top of this, plans for the special “MEMBER’S AREA” coming soon to The Crow Academy website include a monthly Webinar hosted by Master Arcane that will be absolutely free for Members.
We also invite you to organize your local BDSM community and friends to contact The Crow Academy expressing interest as a group. If the interest is strong enough in your area or in the nearest big city, you will probably be attending a Crow Academy Class or Seminar in your area soon.
An Incredible NEW YEARS EVE Event in Los Angeles
Over the years it has been my pleasure to get to know a wide variety of Movers and Shakers in the Global BDSM Community. One of these unique individuals goes by the name of “RUBBERT,” and this gentleman has been a force to be reckoned with when it comes to BDSM Events. Some of you may know of the infamous “KINK IN THE CARIBBEAN” week-long event that occurred for many years in Jamaica. That was just one of this man’s many contributions to the Global Kink World.
This year for New Years Eve 2016-2017, “RUBBERT” will be hosting the spectacular New Years Eve Fetish Ball at a Secret Location (and this man has some rather nice “secret locations”) in Los Angeles, California. Expect a fine environment, plenty of places to play, fine BDSM furniture, kinky shows, and more. For full details head over to the Kink Events website.
Oh and by the way, yours truly Master Arcane will be doing a Fireplay Show at this year’s event. 😉

BRAND NEW Crow Academy Site Coming Soon
+ Great Things Coming for Members
2017 is going to be a big year for The Crow Academy, for you our subscribers, and for those of you who become Members.
To begin with, we will debuting a NEW website to join CrowAcademy.com and ArcaneAdvice.com. This will be where we will make ALL previous and forthcoming newsletters available and all the juicy information they contain easily accessible to the general public. All issues will now be in a searchable library format, for free and in perpetuity. In the future you will no longer receive lengthy email newsletters, but rather a simple, pleasantly short email that tells you what the latest “Newsletter Issue” contains with a link to go to the new website to read it at your leisure. Like all Crow Academy websites, the new website will work just fine on Smartphones and Tablets.
Secondly we will soon debut the Member’s Area of The Crow Academy. Inside the Member’s Area we will have Open Forums where Member’s can post topics, create threads, and talk to each other while openly and safely sharing ideas about BDSM and D/s. We will also host monthly Webinars from inside the Member’s area where Member’s can engage directly with Master Arcane (and some guest speakers as well) and where the Webinars will become downloadable Podcasts afterwards. Members will also get further discounts on almost all Crow Academy products.
Perhaps best of all, we will have a Member’s General Library where you can download an assortment of Crow Academy original documents and helpful materials, such as the Master-Slave Contract featured in IGNITING THE FIRE, at your leisure, and as many times as you want for FREE once you become a Member.
Becoming a Member will happen the second you make a single purchase of any kind EVER from The Crow Academy (e.g. the Hardback Collectors Edition of IGNITING THE FIRE, the forthcoming D/s Video Mastery Course, one of our Ebooks purchased directly from The Crow Academy website, or any of an assortment of forthcoming Crow Academy products…), and strictly for Newsletter Subscribers and CrowSecrets Readers, Membership is FOR LIFE. Yep, that’s right. As our gift to you for all your support over the years, once you are in, you are IN.
For those who only want access to the Forums, the Webinar, and the Members General Library we will have an unbelievably low, one-time fee for Lifetime Membership and entrance to these areas (Again, ONLY for Newsletter Subscribers and CrowSecrets Readers), and your Membership will include continued access to anything added to General Library for LIFE!
Sure, go ahead and forward this Newsletter to that “special someone” who you have been wanting to talk to about D/s. Happy to help. 😉
Dominant Dreams and superb submission to you all,
— Master Arcane and The Crow Academy
