Hey everyone

[electra heart]

Well what can I really say, the occult has interested me for the vast majority of my life, but I wouldn't say I'm very well versed at all. My personal beliefs are always changing. I'm here hoping to learn and interact with more people who have an interest in these topics because I do find it difficult to find people to discuss these sorts of things with in real life, and to be honest, Reddit and YouTube, for the most part, seem to just be people looking for attention (although I have found a few cool YouTube channels lately). I've really stuck to forums for most of my life, I think the format is a lot more conductive to overall discussions and knowledge in a digital world. I enjoy reading books and I'm really looking forward to digging in to the books posted here.

I hope I have something to contribute to the community at some point.

Thanks for having me.

Hello @electra heart,

I can relate. I think you'll find a good mix of individuals here who are open to ( and enjoy ) having those discussions.

Thanks for having me.

Welcome to the community.

Welcome! You said you’re personal beliefs are always changing and would like to discuss these topics, mind me asking what beliefs you have been drawn to lately and if there are any occult type topics/practices that interest you more than others?
I hope you enjoy your stay! There definitely is a huge library.

I'm kind of getting back in to Astrology and Tarot lately. I've always been drawn to the symbolism and Numerology in both but I don't think I was ever at a place to truly understand it until now. I'm also trying to connect more with my psychic abilities. I've always been clairsentient, but I've had so much trouble ever "seeing" anything, I can feel but not see (I also wear glasses because my eyesight sucks and I think they're connected lol).

I did go through a (very cringe) Christian phase in 2021 so I was reading a lot about that, tbh the more I read the more I was connecting it back to Paganism. I was a Wiccian for about a decade before that. I'm trying not to label myself anymore or become to attached because I always feel like an idiot when I change my mind lol.

Part of my lineage is Irish and I really want to learn more about that and Celtic Paganism when I'm ready. I have a few books on my shelf for when that time comes. I have a lot of generational trauma to work through on that side first though, I feel.

I'm a bit of a jack of all trades type, I like to learn a little about everything and figure out how they're all connected.
