Hello there

Hi there,
My real name is irrelevant, we can just go by my user name. I am a Luciferian, have been for many years.
I was a member of another forum that I chose to leave behind for numerous reasons, mostly subjective administration and a questionable LHP community. Anyways, I found this place and am highly looking forward to trying it.

I am agnostic in the actual sense, my belief is that we cannot know whether God(s) exist or not, and I think it is irrelevant.
I am of the psychological school of magick, I believe it is mental, not that it involves the supernatural. However I fully believe in the power of belief, the power of archetypes, etc and I have no problem discussing topics as if things in question (gods, demons, etc) actually exist. I suppose one more thing to touch on is that I am not a Satanist. It is not something you do not want to call me. I am very adamant about keeping Satanism and Luciferianism in their own categories. Satan is a rather useless concept for me.

Chances are I will be throwing in my two cents in many threads to start, and I hope to become a member worth holding around.

Thanks for having me.

Hello and welcome to the forum. [grin]

I hold very similar views in regard to magick.

I won't comment on Satan,though,as I think he is a useful if somewhat maligned, concept and archetype.

We have Luciferianism in the same folder as Satanism,as I'm sure you will notice,if you haven't already.It's not ideal, but the forum was set up this way and the categories could use some tidying up/rejigging.

I could sub forum several paradgims,but we already have so many folders and subs that members tend to get a bit lost when deciding where to post appropriately already.

I will look into it and discuss matters with Vashta,as soon as we can.

Haha, I noticed before I even registered. It irks me a little, sure, but I am understanding of it. I have noticed there is generally a very small population of Luciferians that would really make a sub-forum a waste of space. I do not know if this is the case here, I am still working my way down the list of topics lol. Thank you for the welcome, I hope for some interesting interactions :)

Already it's nice to have a forum where I can speak without having to explain every little occult term I use [greensmile]

I would also like to mention I have studied philosophy / logic and anthropology. Currently I am working on a degree in Psychological Science.

A Luciferan? Long time not seen, it has been a while since I had the pleasure of the presence of one of your kind.
Your introduction is concisely though still informative, I appreciate that. Feel welcome here [eg]

Say, do you know the name "Order of ascending Flame"?

Why thank you! I am already thoroughly enjoying it.

I have not. While I like to study orders I have no interest in joining one so I do not seek them out. I always am interested to discover and learn of new ones when they cross my path though!

Though I've come late to the party, I wanted to say hello :). I've already been enjoying your posts (great idea to ask about alters :) ) and wish you welcome :)
