Re: Super-Natural or Skeptic: What does the occult mean to y
For me the majority of it is psychological/internal/subconscious work. It's the reason why everything I throw into a ritual works as long as it resonates with me on a personal level. I could do Wiccan rituals until I'd burst but they would never work for me as I have no interest in it. It doesn't &q...

Re: 120-153 people killed in Paris by I.S, Friday 13th
I think the most important thing to realize is that there has never been peace on this planet. We might be safe in our cozy homes but there's always some conflict raging somewhere. I find it surprising that people are shocked by this fact. Of course it IS shocking as in; darn what a messed up world....

Re: Connecting with the genius loci
That is incredibly awesome.
I'd say just spend a lot of time there, take things step by step and feel if anything changes. Communicate your intentions clearly.

Re: 120-153 people killed in Paris by I.S, Friday 13th
IMO it means the majority of humanity hasn't evolved beyond poop-throwing monkeys. I do not see any occult significance in this, especially not as the perpetrators likely operate solely on a dangerous mix of fear, zealotry and hatred. There's no real great plan behind this but hurting back for perce...

Re: Good info sources for newcomer
I hear a lot of people talking negatively about La Vey's magic but IMO it works great. It's just really, really basic. Maybe it's because I started out with it myself, was a registered member for a long time. I still find myself in many of La Vey's writings. I guess it's also why I am now into chaos...

Re: The Galdr Invocation of IAO
Much appreciated Shinichi! I'm a bookworm so no worries there. I was born into this world with a book-list in my hands. [lol]
I already own the von List one you mentioned but he's very well known so that's not surprising. Great stuff.

+1 would love to hear recommendations for books. I do cat runes but I find I'm somewhat rattling along. It works but I'm not getting the full experience so to speak. It's like drinking fine wine with water added.

Re: A warning about immortality.

Nope...not this a. A being conceived as the perfect, omnipotent, omniscient originator and ruler of the universe, the principal object of faith and worship in monotheistic religions. b.

Re: What I know about "spirits" so far... (Common Behaviours
When spirits manifest, you already mentioned they need energy, the temperature might drop a couple of degrees. I've also noticed some changes in humidity strangely enough... Spirits can be "trapped' in locations or attached to items. I have a mirror that's been in the family for ages and it mea...

Good to hear from you DS but sad to hear the health-care system seems pretty much the same everywhere. Good you are not giving up though!

Re: What's going on out there?! - A memo about the real worl
I should tell you that you won't find concrete evidence anywhere. Every outlet is controlled and everyone is pushing their own agenda. If you're open minded, and you find an idea, you ought to do the research yourself. That doesn't mean you shouldn't look at things that are presented to you since t...

Re: The Biology, Behaviour and Experience - Of The Vampire!
Pretty cool, reminds me of this book;
The science of Vampires by Katherine Ramsland. I highly recommend it, it's a bit simplistic but has some great theories(and dark humor) on how such a mythical creature could work in real life.
Pretty cool concept, will have to think on my own apex predator...

Sounds like you are in the dark place I was in a few years ago. It's actually pretty common that when you were hurt by others you develop a tendency to hurt back. Sort of "do it to them before they do it to you". It doesn't make you evil, it makes you a person that has to deal with a lot o...

As soon as I see concrete evidence for these claims I'm willing to change my mind. No not even willing, I WILL change my mind. I practice Chaos Magic for a reason; it suits me.

I've dabbled a bit in gematria but as soon as I switch from Hebrew to any other language and use the tables for them it doesn't make sense anymore.
