hi, glad to join an active web forum on these matters! I am rather silent and solitary in rural Australia and interested in re-committing to occult. Are any others in this locale?

I'm not anywhere near Australia, but welcome to the forum all the same. Personally, I weary of wall-to-wall Menschenstoff where I sojourn. What are your occult interests?

I had to look up the German term, and finally worked out the most likely context it was in, and thankfully I am quite removed from them physically, very fortunate to be surrounded by far more forest trees than those. My (focused) occult interests are currently to learn about 16-19th century western practices, but also an eye to east Asian area too.

Sorry about the terminology. I was being snide. When folks become too many, we tend to lose any differentiation from one another. Something like a Stephen King novel with its endless iteration of shocking (but false) endings. After a short while, ennui sets in.

Anyhow welcome. 1500's were a heckuva time for magick in various corners of Europe, yes. Looking forward to your posts.

I was prompted to search it and because of this I learnt a new word in another language. In my short time here I've enjoyed your particular posts, even if it means I often have to stand on my head and re-examine the turn of phrase as if it's scratched onto a wineglass upside down and reversed, and composed in mist!

Otto Weininger (Sex and Character) notes there are two kinds of authors. Those who wonder what to say; and those who wonder what others will say about them. The one writes to be read; the other for effect. My writing style is a tertiary symptom of mine own flawed character.

I'm also in Australia, so if you're interested in Asian occultism and divination maybe we'll have a lot to talk about!
