Let's see my magical resume.
20s -
Wicca, experimentation with witchcraft and magic.
Dabbled in a Lavey obcession for a while.
Some results (100 dollar bill from a spell in Celtic magic that came out of nowhere, the thunderstorm created out of the blue by commandingly outside reciting the Necronomicon conjurations).
The Magus purchased as well as Satanic Bible, Satanic Rituals, Wicca for the Solitary practitioner, The Necronomicon, power of the witch, drawing down the moon.
Tarot card readings.
Had my one of three book burnings and deliverance.
30s -
Deeper investgation into witchcraft and GD. Bought TGD as well as books on witchcraft.
Minor deliverance.
40s -
Invite from Toronto Temple twice, failed both times either by in an accident otw, or got lost somewhere otw.
Self study.
Dark side tour.
Major deliverance
50s -
Got back into Magick and dark side.
Had a teacher, still have one.
Pondered mysticism as the way after I go through a list of books (each treated as a newly unearthed grimoire) to read and practice, and to reap existing rewards.
Internal deliverance or signs my HS met the HS external to us.
Reintroduction to yeshua.
So yes, its been Wicca, satanism, low Magick, Witchcraft, or GD, often conflicting with Christian belief.
Shamanism and Mysticism in general, not specific seem to be as neutral as Buddhism.
Tired again coffee caffeine wore off.
