A magical nexus is a place of magical power where the currents of magic run especially strong or close to the mundane world. See “Magical Nexus Points,” p. 77.

At one dot, a thaumaturge gains access to a minor magical nexus point. This location adds +1 to the dice pool of all magical rituals performed there. Minor nexes are rarely larger than a small house and are often smaller. Because they are relatively common, a mystic can even have a nexus in her house, workshop or other personal, private location that she can access at any time.

At two dots, the magician gains access to a major magical nexus point. This location adds +2 to the dice pools of all rituals performed there. Such places can be as large as an entire hilltop, an aging office building or a large grove of trees.

Drawback: Other thaumaturges may wish to borrow or even take possession of any magical nexus points. Also, most major points are of interest to one or more types of supernatural beings such as werewolves, spirits and ghosts, and these beings often object to thaumaturges intruding.
