This is the first of a few essays I'm writing to clarify where I've been, what I've accomplished and where I'm going with my spiritual development, with particular reference to the Occult studies.

Thanks for writing all that out! Very interesting

I don't think the connection between chaos and demons is so direct... I mean, yes there is this fascination with the Cthulhu mythos, but that's not an essential part of what the chaos approach is about.Right. But some people might not necessarily understand that when they pick up a copy of Liber Null & Psychonaut, with all those pictures of ghastly creatures and his invocation of Choronzon near the end

There's no problem with that kind of mentality! I mean, what else is there to do in life? You could sit around chasing the "absolute truth" goose but why bother, when you could be doing and being who you want?

Well yeah but...I guess all I can say is...I go where I'm called.

Not to hold you in suspense but just wait until I get to my tarot essay. Tarot is the love of my life!!...well, one of them anyway. I followed my calling on that and all the rigorous exercises seemed like joy and more joy. I didn't do as well with Qabala and other stuff.
