Good time zone all!

My name is Hannah and I am so thrilled to have found such an informative forum! I am extremely new to studying ceremonial/occult magick and am currently studying to join the AA. My background is in witchcraft and funny enough I was told recently that someone was surprised to see me pursuing more ceremonial, structured type magical systems because I seemed more witchy. I suppose I am at the phase in my life that aligns with Scientific Illuminism, aka, find what works and do that. I am pagan and have done a sparse bit of deity work that, as you can imagine, yielded results that deity wanted for me, not exactly what I was asking for. PGM work has been more successful for me in that way. Plus, I love history and learning about the philosophies and beliefs of people that in some ways feel so far removed from us today yet are aligned in our aims. To tell Fate to suck it and create the life YOU want to live.

I love learning about spirituality in all forms and look forward to how this path changes me. And! I hope to make some new friends or at the very least, have my perspectives challenged.

HI Hannah . I have ( had .... ? do they 'go away ' ? ) initiations in both 'ceremonial structured' magick and Wicca and yes, some did find that 'strange' , but ( here anyway ) it seemed a bit of a thing from the past , an old rivalry between the two somehow . I spent some time on the 'Scientific Illuminism' path . I am also into history .... a bit sparse though , meaning my fav areas are little known ; pre - history , early Bronze Age ( little known ) through to early Iron Age ( from an Anthropological and comparative Religion perspective ) ..... 'lost civilizations ' ... real ones , that is , like BMAC ( archaeology ) , early Levant and origin of Judaism .... also philosophy - esp early Zoroastrian and Greek ( particularly concepts of Psyche ) .

I look forward to discussing any of that .... and maybe even A.A. .
