Hello everyone!

Post by Asurendra »

Hello everyone, my name is James and I live in the city of San Francisco. I have browsed through this forum on occasion and have finally decided to join.
My core magical practice would be a basic form of Shamanism. I have broader occult interests but these have, for the most part, remained abstractions. I have recently begun working with sigils under the tutelage of the book Practical Sigil Magic by Frater UD. I meditate (almost) daily suing the chakra system and the tattwas. I am also very interested in the subjects of Soul Rescue and Dragons.
My magical weltanschauung is a dynamic harmony of two opposites: I accept the possibilities of anomalous human potentialities (The Reality of ESP by Russell Targ provides compelling evidence), but, I still maintain a certain skepticism as grounding when encountering any phenomenon (including my own experiences).
I publish poetry under a pen name and am currently on the verge of beginning a series of graphic novel projects (with just one maddening obstacle in my path). I also have interest in history and Japanese Manga.
My religious affiliation is that I worship Lord Shiva and I honor the Spirits of Nature, or the Kami, as the Japanese would call them.
Last, but not least, I practice two martial arts: Karate and Suio-Ryu. But, my schedule has been creating problems with my practices at present.

Nice to meet you James. I think it's very good to have some skepticism when exploring the occult. I remember going through a really silly period of believing everything when I first got into metaphysics. Ah, memories.

Sounds like you're on a good track. Sigil magick is fascinating and potent to work with. Welcome to the forum!
