This quote is used frequently among chaos magicians in particular, who if not the most common type of magician, certainly dominate the meta.

Sorry Anon, I don't play, but I think the rat ninja looks cool. I've not seen many things like it.

>>2064
yeah ink eyes is pretty sick, unfortunately it's kind of awkward compared to nashi, moon sage's scion despite having nicer art. problem is you need to spend a bajillion dollars on shizo, the black gate, etc in order to get damage triggers off consistently on either commander so i went with cynette in the end

Maybe it's relatively new, but I always thought Zoroastrianism was interesting
>>1988
Care to elaborate?

>>2043
zoroastrianism is really cool in that a lot of what people think is exclusive to abrahamic religions actually first appeared in zoroastrianism, like heaven, hell, opposing forces of good and evil and even the last judgement

>>2044
Yes, I was thinking about the way light and dark are discussed in Zoroastrianism in particular. And also that Nietzsche seemed fond of it

Recently stumbled onto this guy.

I found his video on magickal journals to be very helpful because my life got to a point where I'm able to have a semi-regular spiritual practice, which means I need a system to write everything down.
Being able to look back on your progress is very helpful, but I can't be writing on loose papers forever so I got into bookbinding a while ago and made some small books for practice. I'm waiting for a chance to try out the coptic stitch method (apparently it works well for big books, which is exactly what I need), but I'm missing a good awl. Piercing multiple sheets of paper with a sewing needle is too slow and painful to be viable for a project like this.

Erischan may be of interest.

He was gay but he was a genius he wrote over 30 novels and 20 plays plus directed a short film also i agree with his personal philosophy of sun and steel so I am a bit biased

I started watching him recently, and I think his content is really high quality. he’s clearly studied the occult deeply, and it’s refreshing to see an expert making videos without all the flashy editing, just substance

The whole country is one massive haunted place, and as the one who lives there, I do not recommend you to move out of your home country to Russia.

>>2018
of course he's a russky this explains so much

if you spin around three times, hit your dog with a saucepan, then shit in the sink, a shadowy figure known as "YOUR FATHER" will appear and enact upon you an arcane ritual known only as "BELTING"

I need to start again. Dream journal isn't needed, just a clear mind and intention. It takes a few days to get into it.

Lucid dreaming is generally not worth the effort after experiencing it once or twice. The best part of dreams is letting your unconscious create an experience for you, letting you surprise yourself. Then again it could be interesting to try working in your dreams, like Aphex Twin lol.

Honest question.
Is there anything lucid dreaming can do that plain mid-day imagination can't?

>>2009
Daydreaming/imagination can come up with some cool concepts, but I find lucid dreams an experience entirely of their own and often very much ethereal in experience that no drug I've ever taken has ever gotten close to. Dreams themselves are a cycle of your mind dumping random information for deletion but instead cause vivid imagination the likes of which can't be described accurately. When in control of these in a lucid state (or seemingly in control), things can get very interesting incredibly fast. I have had dreams of corrupted skyscrapers and exploring their confines, drowning in an abstract pool of water situated in the orange, sunset sky next to random abstractions and buildings, large mazes of urban decay and mall-like structures that seem endless explored next to my closest friends, and terrifying lucid nightmares where I was vivisected repeated and cleaved in the head with a machete, splitting my brain in half. I suffer from vivid dreams and night terrors constantly that have only subsided once I was adequately taking my prescribed PTSD medication every night. I have also had bouts of sleep paralysis as well. The things our minds come up with when we sleep are several times more amplified than what we can think of when we are awake.

I have a really bad iron deficiency apparently, and that helps. I've had very vivid and exciting dreams, but I don't know if "lucid" is the right term.

You also probably just shouldn't give yourself an iron deficiency in order to become heacking madotsukii youmay neeki. But, hey, if you're bored enough…

>>1963
could I get a reading too please?

book of thoth

i used to try to do cartomancy with a guide my friend sent me but i never managed to get into a routine of it. i think my deck hates me now so i don't try. i'd be bitter too if i was her

i've been thinking about it and it just doesn't fit to me because the way my brain interprets and associates images is…uniquely mine, and yours is uniquely yours, etc. etc., so i've been trying to develop my own divination system that actually means something to me in how it works

divination to me is just using random cues and meanings and trying to use it as a conversation with an external, random replier that sometimes spits out nonsense. chatgpt if you think about it

Magick is frighteningly easy. Lower level anyways
