Hello everyone... I guess I should say I'm glad to be here...
A little bit about myself...
Well, I'm male, living in Mpls MN. I'm irish/native american. I'm a ordained pagan minister and the HP of my coven (coven of Twilight Shadows). I've been a practicing occultist for almost 25 years. Forms of magic that I've studied (off the top of my head) include: Native american spirit communication, Greek/Roman necromancy, Santeria, Powwow, Scottish charms, QBL, Golden Dawn/O.T.O/A.A., Wicca (both BTW and ecclectic), Grimmoreic traditional, Hermetic, Druidic, Chaos, And the magic of the FS.
On the side of my "day job" I also tutor Plilosophy, Theology, and Psychology...
Don't know that there is anything else to add... I try to keep a open mind about things. Also I try to keep a level head about things. When confronted with something, I try to always look at it by "does this work?". If it doesn't, I toss it away, if it works (i.e. if it have a effect) Then I accept it as is and worry about the implications about it later. It keeps me grounded in "reality" (whatever THAT is), because I'll question the results of any information that I get from non-physical sources.
If anyone has any questions, feel free to ask.
You sound like a pretty intelligent guy, welcome to UM.
There are a lot of discussions about the occult; I started out posting about ghosts when I joined. The paranormal board is definitely really interesting.
I can appreciate your open mind towards reality, because I have a sort of uninspired, blunt, rational perspective on the Universe.
