Winter Solstice and the Mystery of Christmas

You often hear people talk about the origens of Christmas being involved with the time of Winter Solstice, but unfortunately it is either misinterpretted (getting the cart before the horse), or simply acknowledged and then forgotten. However, this holiday season I suggest we think a little more deep...

Re: Practicing Tarot

Hey thanks dovaive! I appreciate it. I did it simply as a meme or a guiding light for my own practice. If others can gain some benefit from it, I'm happy. It was a personal thing, though, and I'm just not sure that anyone (and I mean anyone) would quite 'get it'. But I could be wrong. I do need to g...

Re: Why does Satanism cause depression in me?

Thank you for the review. I don't think I made any grammatical or spelling errors, but sometimes my dyslexia starts acting up. Basically, the main point in all of this is that everyone is bipolar. Sorry to break the news to you if you didn't already know, but yes, every single sentient human being o...

Hi I've been trying to keep up practice with the mind control exercises in liber mmm ( eg visualizing glyph, motionlessness, sound concentration etc) for a long time, I'm not sure if they are intended as introductory exercises only or intended to be done as a regular practice ongoing most days? tha...

Re: Practicing Tarot

Interesting concept for a deck you have there. However I do believe its a bit... oxy-moronish to create a "Christian" tarot, mostly because a good number of Christians I have spoken with are adamant that use of the tarot is against the Christian doctrine and I've even been told that to re...

Re: Why does Satanism cause depression in me?

Original post: Tevnon For starters I'm not a Satanist, but a chaote(or at very least I'm strongly influenced by Chaos magic) who occasionally has used Satanism as a paradigm. At various times I've worked with traditional Satanism, LaVey Satanism, and even basic Satanic dabbling as paradigms. Withou...

Re: What does union with God mean?

In Gnostic, Eastern, and New Age texts that I have read, our ultimate destination is union with God. But what does union with God mean? Do we approach God and then become absorbed into God, and in a sense "die?" Or do we stay an individual entity, yet experience a relationship that is com...

Feelin A Little Lost

If you want the long version of the story, then by all means, join whatever order you wish. If you want the short version of the story, then understand that there is no real order except the Ancient Alliance of the Elect. Masons, Rosae Croix, and AMORC, and any other XYZ are all useless and meaningl...

Practicing Tarot

Practising Tarot? Man. Hmm. Well, what I did was make my own Tarot deck. I took a bunch of pictures of various Bible narratives and characters and pretty much 'spliced' together my cards. For example, I took various archetypes from scripture to make the pack. Jesus the Hierophant, Jesus the Magician...

Is Thelema Satanic? -- A Christian Perspective

Just a question as to what most think about this subject. I've been a solitary practitioner for about 13 years now and never have really have had a chance to talk to other mystics. I never really considered Thelema to be Satanic. I think I read through the Satanic Bible when I was about 13 or 14 can...
