MAGIC(K)

[Anonymous No.7141715]

So if I wanted to learn academic philosophy I'd go to a university, but where would I go if I wanted to learn occult philosophy? I'm hoping to get scammed out of all my money and lose my virginity while tripping balls on mescaline and talking to aliens in the middle of the desert.

Also, feel free to discuss magic(k)/occultism in general.

If you live in a large city there's probably a local OTO temple - which is what your pic references

Three fascinating alchemists in Peter's in-depth Infinite Fire webinars

Peter will take us first to the 'Amphitheatrum Sapientiae Aeternae' - the Amphitheatre of Eternal Wisdom - the renowned work of physician and Hermetic alchemist Heinrich Khunrath

Peter will discuss the alchemical emblem book 'Atalanta Fugiens' (1617) by the Renaissance alchemist Michael Maier. This book with 50 separate sections, may well be regarded as the first multimedia production ever. Each section contains an engraved emblem, a verse and an epigram connected to the emblem as well as a short prose piece discussing the alchemical meaning of each emblem

Terence K. McKenna (1991) Exploring the Hermetic Tradition.

This is the pre-talk anicdotes before the workshop, Hermeticism & Alchemy.

"History itself is a kind of alchemical process. ... History is the catalyst of nature."

"If we could raise to consciousness our alchemical heritage, and our heritage in the shamanism of the archaic, then we could actually see that the purpose of technology is to liberate, not to enslave..."

my writing and music have improved, ive become more articulate, cut down on fapping, my temper's cooled, eradicated that kind of tense background anxiety you get when there's nothing overtly bothering you, am unaffected by intrusive thoughts (and if you've read about them they can be debilitating), and just generally feel more at peace and more attuned to the good things in life

Occult writings are the ones that demand the most from you. The occult is, by definition, going on under the radar of the general eye. It is not supported by institutions like academia, it is no well accepted anywher except among those into it. You'll find plenty of people claiming to be experts, but no one to back them up, unlike the experts of any other area, that could show you a certificate and you'd fall for it. In order o learn about the occult, you're going to have to dig through old books, contraditory information, varied sources of information, with no guarantee on their quality or their truth. Occultism is vast and takes a lot of shapes and interpretations, including your own, which you can develop the more you know about it, the more willing you are to really listen to what you're reading and still remain critical of your own understanding of it, the more you observer your supposed rationality and intuition, anyway, the more you engage yourself with it.

There is no other person to say you're in the right path.

Intrusive thoughts hound me, my man. Glad to hear you're dealing with them in a constructive manner.

I'd say I'm unaffected by them, but it's still lame to have them.
