🌌Hello everyone!

Honestly, I didn’t expect to see myself here, since I’ve been a skeptic all my life (and still am). However, life keeps hinting more and more that it’s time to pay attention and take a look at what’s hidden behind the veil.

I can’t sincerely say that I’m seeking knowledge for the sake of knowledge, or wisdom—and I’m a bit ashamed of that (doesn’t feel very respectable). Right now, I’ve turned to this for personal reasons— a desire, hunger and lust for material things has appeared.

To keep the thread active, I’ll ask a question to those more experienced and introduce myself at the same time: for a long time, I was devoted to the Light, but fate has knocked me down again—and this time it has planted real doubt. I’m tired of carrying the martyr’s cross; there have been too many trials for my kind soul. I picked up “Secrets of Magical Grimoires” and devoured it in one sitting. Now I find myself at a crossroads.

How did you find your path to the areas and directions of occultism that interest you and brought you success? Any advice for a beginner?

Welcome to the forum. I found the occult as a teen when I was given a tarot. Then after a few years of the rabbit hole i took a break from it only to return recently

I started by invesigating if it was possible to reconcile paranormal abilities and science. Later, I discovered that paranormal abilities aren't actually paranormal at all, and that they are all a subset of magic...

As for beginners advice...

Welcome! I found my way to occultism through my friends group in the local punk scene. Someone introduced me to Liber Null and Psychonaut by Peter J. Carroll and I've been hooked on chaos magick ever since. If you are interested in results based magic I highly recommend Liber Null as a starting point!
