I am (maybe 'was' is now the word) an oftimes visitor to another magic forum affiliated to a site with a lot of what seems (and has proven to be) solid magical techniques and training. Still from the general tone of the forum, I get a feeling of activity at cross purposes with stated objectives. Y'all have doubtless read the old saw about how Voltaire wanted a revolution that would leave his personal world very much intact. Something similar seems afoot there. Certain rites are scheduled for stated times and I'm wondering if the energy really serves the stated purpose. Or if the organizers are fastening onto it for their own gratification. This latter possibility might even be something they themselves do not clearly realize. I consulted the oracle method I use and it hinted pretty strongly at this last possibility before I even thought of it.
Another possibility, of course, is that I am paranoid. Justified paranoia has saved my pelt twice this life, so it could be I've become a one-trick pony.
Anyway, to cut to the choice, does anyone have any pet litmus tests for scenarios like that described above: that a leading organizer of practices and rites is misappropriating energies expended?
