About

Jangled Jester started as a metaphysics blog in 2018 but was rebranded to support secular and physicalist wellness through the vision of JJ's creative creator, @RebeccaKinsler in 2021.

Rebecca was raised in the Independent Freewill Baptist church and later became interested in Christian mysticism, Paganism, and science magic. By her mid-20s, she'd lost belief in most traditional aspects of religiosity and was instead drawn to an agnostic, nonreligious collage of philosophies such as Dr. Kirk Schneider's "agnostic enchantment,” and Albert Camus’ "absurdism."

By combining elements of art, philosophy, and science, Jangled Jester was able to produce its first book “The Secular Occultist’s Handbook of Physicalist Magick,” as a guide for people interested in secularly exploring naturalist, agnostic, and first-principles methods of enchantment and wellness.

Jangled Jester's gift shop features handcrafted creations by Rebecca, with support from AI assistants. Rebecca brings a rich blend of expertise, from over a decade in customer support and work as a licensed insurance agent to her role as an advisor advancing sustainable energy. An ETSU graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Clinical Psychology, she’s now a remote Computer Science student at WGU, while exploring arts, sciences, and philosophies to inspire Jangled Jester.

Thanks so much for visiting Jangled Jester! Please follow JJ on X if you're interested. Thanks for staying curious, critical, and being a part of the Jangled Jester family!
