Do you practice divination? If so, which form?: I'm interested in rune casting, but haven't had a chance to try it out yet.
Do you have psychic talents? I often know a person's personality and motives the first time I meet them, and can usually tell if someone is lying and/or hiding something. And, although it rarely happens, I've also sometimes known the origin of an object by seeing it, or seen a few seconds into the future.
+===+

Favorite musical artist or band: That changes often, but my current favorite is Tvangeste, a Russian symphonic black metal band.

Magickal paths you've studied/practice: I've studied magic theory in general, not a particular path. I am looking to become more hands on but no specific technique or traditions have called to me yet. I am quite interested in the raw power of the mind.
Other paths of interest: I've studied a lot of religious/spiritual paths. I think magic ultimately leads to the same destination as those. I've also lightly grazed on energy healing.
Do you practice divination? If so, which form? Yes, tarot [the Osho Zen deck, it was a gift]. I've also become better at seeing things through simple meditation.
Do you have psychic talents? Yes. I'm a developing empath - distance doesn't matter and all I usually need is a first name. I can usually see more than their emotions, like past lives, issues with their body, feelings about their childhood, thoughts about a new situation, ect. I can also see their chakras/energy system. Beyond observation, I can also affect their energy in almost any way I want - open chakras, balance their aura, put up a shield, circulate their kundalini, ect.
+===+
Favorite poet: I like the poem Stopping By The Woods On A Snowy Evening by Robert Frost, but I wouldn't say I have a favorite poet.
Favorite musical artist or band: How could I choose one?
Favorite book/s: Stranger in a Strange Land by Robert Heinlein has stuck in my heart throughout the years.
Favorite film/s:
Favorite quote: There is no religion in Heaven.
Favorite television show:
Do you have any hobbies? Besides magick and spirituality? Not really. I do some art/music.
Anything else you wanna tell us?

Magickal paths you've studied/practice: I have studied the concepts of Wicca and Hermetic magic, as well as Kabbala.
Other paths of interest: I have looked into tarot, runes and talismans.
Do you practice divination? If so, which form?: No, I do not.

+===+
Favorite poet: Undetermined.
Favorite musical artist or band: Currently Tangerine Dream.
Favorite book/s: Impossible to say; I have too many to choose from. At the moment, I am amused by the abridged version of Frazer's 'golden bough'.

Anything else you wanna tell us? I am a student, not a practitioner. I am interested in theoretical knowledge, not practical experience. I would regret it if that offends anyone here, but please do not bother trying to encourage me to experiment.

Magickal paths you've studied/practice: Practice meditation. Recently started studying hermetic occult
Other paths of interest: Eastern mystic such as Tai Chi, Yoga, Daoism, Mahayana Buddhism
Do you practice divination? If so, which form? No
Do you have psychic talents? I think we all do to some extent. I think the scientific studies of Rupert Sheldrake have confirmed that. It's possible that some of my dreams have been psychic. I met a deceased friend of mine, and I had dreams foretelling the future. The dreams that have foretold the future are about an event that is yet to come, but they came in a series (they involved me having a child with a woman I am with now, who I had only met one time at the time of the series of dreams), if they come true then they were prophetic, if not, they were just entertaining elaborate dreams. In addition, some events in my life, (especially those that occurred recently) have been incredible examples of synchronicity. In fact, it is those events that led me to Hermeticism and this site.
+===+
Favorite poet: Edgar Allen Poe and Shakespeare
Favorite musical artist or band: Aphex Twin, Tangerine Dream, Terry Riley, Beethoven, Phillip Glass, Autechre, James Holden
Favorite book/s: Do Androids Dream of Electric Sheep, many of the works by Kafka, The Man in the High Castle, The Three Stigmata of Palmer Eldritch
Favorite film/s: Blade Runner, 2001
Favorite quote: I've seen things you people wouldn't believe. Attack ships on fire off the shoulder of Orion. I watched c-beams glitter in the dark near the Tanhauser Gate. All those moments will be lost in time, like tears in rain. Time to die. - Roy Batty (From Bladerunner)
The light that burns twice as bright burns half as long. - Dr Tyrrel (From Bladerunner)
Why are you unhappy? Because 99.9 per cent Of everything you think, And of everything you do, Is for yourself — And there isn't one. - Wei Wu Wei
My religion consists of a humble admiration of the illimitable superior spirit who reveals himself in the slight details we are able to perceive with our frail and feeble mind. - Einstein
Favorite television show: Firefly, X-Files, The Original Star Trek
Do you have any hobbies? Yes, I produce music, I read lots and lots of philosophy, and I'm employed in the sciences doing research on Alzheimer's
Anything else you wanna tell us? I am only interested in the truth. If I am going to be here for a long time, it's possible I might develop a reputation for being a contrarian, or skeptic. Please understand that my way of coming to the truth is to challenge, like the students do in Buddhist Sutras or Zen koans. After my challenge has been satisfied, then I can believe.

=============
Magickal paths you've studied/practice: Wicca, Draconic Wicca, Witchcraft
Other paths of interest: Well, more magickal studying and after getting a chance to look around, perhaps Sorcery? I usually go by whimsy and add it with my collective knowledge.
Do you practice divination? If so, which form?: Rune reading, I can do divination through water scrying but that is really imprecise and can be vague most of the time.
Do you have psychic talents? I can feel the life energy around me and look into a person’s eyes and unfold themselves.
+===+
Favorite poet: Dante Alligheri
Favorite musical artist or band: Thomas Bergerson
Favorite book/s: Outlander by Diana Gabaldon
Favorite film/s: Not much of a movie watcher but, the most enjoyable would have to be Pans Labyrinth.
Favorite quote: Not much of a quoter, but I guess it could be from Sophocles, he said, “Always desire to learn something useful. “
Favorite television show: Once Upon a Time
Do you have any hobbies? I love to study Magick in general, it gives my brain something to do. Debating is fun when the other side can provide a really good back-up for their view, Writing, Reading, Drawing. I generally enjoy the arts.
Anything else you wanna tell us? I am 16, and many of my musings that I hope to post will be in fact, based on logic and practicality rather than books I have read. I hope not to sound childish and hope that joining this site can help me give an outlet to my musings as well as see other points of view on the studying of this vast and infinite path.

Magickal paths you've studied/practice: I've studied different magic paths and religions in general for many years, but I do not follow a particular path. I am interested in the power of the mind, using ones mind to recreate ones reality and forsee that of the others, through many years of exploring I have realized that a mind is easy to manipulate and change, it can be controlled and formed, some have the power to bed the mind of others, in good ways and in bad ways, but this is considered going against the free will somethign many tend to ignore. I don't interfear with others minds and will, unless I am asked too and signs around tell me I should or should't. The path I would say I fallow is that of a Balancekeeper, a Spiritual Warrior and Lightworker.
Other paths of interest: I am into Dragon Magick,Mysteries as well Elemental Energies...
Do you practice divination? If so, which form? Yes and No, I don't practice any divination like the Tarot cards or I Ching or anything similar to that. I would say I use a so called free style devination that occurs through my will. If I would be asked to read someone next to me, I'd do that by observing them and the surrounding they find themselves in. (Example; a woman at work that I had not much in common with asked me out of the blue to read her after she had heard me tell another person at work that one could easily know another persons worries/troubles, desiers/wishes, or fear only by observing them and putting ones will into reading them, be it issues in the now or past, that's when a sign would occur and you'd find what you wish to see through it...She asked me to read what was going on at the moment in her life, I knew she was challanging me, testing me, cause she was laughing and I wasn't willing to give her a so-called reading or see anything about her, I turned her down and she continued insisting same time as mocking and suddenly while she was holding a glass of water she happened to drop most of the water on the floor while attempting to stop me from walking away from her, I turned around telling her dont step on the water and move away, i kneeled and gave her a divinaion reading from what I saw from the water on the floor. I told her of her troubles and worries and that she shouldcall her sister, she was in trouble and needs her. I than told ehr to clean the water up and walked away. She laughed of corse but was freaked out when she got a call to run home cause there was trouble with her sister being out of controll. She stopped laughing after that.) at workalso become better at seeing things through simple meditation.
Do you have psychic talents? Yes more or less. First of all I am an empath. I use dreamwalking as some would call it to see in the past and sometimes to the future. I have a strong visualization abilty. I use the help of dragons to see into someones life, be it past, now or future. Since I was a little child I had the ability to see entities, spirits of different kind, and creatures that most would consider nonexsistant and imposible to be.
Favorite poet: I don't have a favorite poet, but I do love reading poetry in general just as much as I enjoy writing poems myself.
Favorite musical artist or band: Not easy to chose one as a favorite since I tend to listen to music all acording to what mood I'd be in. I can't say I have a particular one as a favorite anyway, but lately I tend to listen to Skillet, Evanesence, Keith Urban, Rascal Flatts, Nickelback etc.
Favorite book/s: No book in particular. I read a loooot of books, but I don't have a favorite, I consider all books to be speciall in their own way, each holding a key, a lesson, a sign; uniqe all books are as from each knowledge there's to be found...
Favorite film/s: ...GODFATHER
Favorite quote:
Treat the earth well. It was not given to you by your parents, it was loaned to you by your children. We do not inherit the Earth from our Ancestors, we borrow it from our Children.
Ancient Indian Proverb
Favorite television show: I rarely watch television, there could go days and weeks between each time, even months.
Do you have any hobbies? Besides magick and spirituality? Writing poems, creating art, gardening.
Anything else you wanna tell us? Everything the power of the world does is done in a circle. The life of a man is a circle from childhood to childhood, and so it is in everything where power moves.

Magickal paths you've studied/practice: Ummm... Well I've tried The Goetia, Satanism , Vudun, Necromancy, a little of this, little of that. Trying to learn more. I've been unsuccessful sense childhood. I'm not sure what I did, but my house got all haunted and junk. So something worked.
Other paths of interest: Dark crafts, hedgecraft, Necromancy, Shamanism... I'm pretty much curious about it all. If I can learn from it, I'll go for it.
Do you practice divination? If so, which form?: Spontaneous, libanomancy, necromancy... dreaming? I'm not sure the actual name for that one. Looking into apantomancy, still have none perfected... or even close to right. lol
Do you have psychic talents?: I can sometimes feel what others are feeling/thinking. I can sometimes tell what's going to happen right before it happens. I can feel when things are, (best way to put it) off. I sense things watching me sometimes. Could just be good old paranoia.
+===+
Favorite poet: Does H.P Lovecraft count?
Favorite musical artist or band: Bauhaus, Skinny Puppy, Alien Sex Fiend, Mors Syphilitica, Siouxsie and the Banshees and a million more.
Favorite book/s: Anything H.P. Lovecraft, Aleister Crowley, Hunter S. Thompson... again the list goes on.
Favorite film/s: Star Wars, The Chumscrubber, Labyrinth, Donnie Darko, SLC Punk, Fight Club. Again more...
Favorite quote: Why just one? "Ph'nglui mglw'nafh Cthulhu R'lyeh wgah'nagl fhtagn", "When the going gets weird, the weird turn pro.", "For every moment of triumph, for every instance of beauty, many souls must be trampled.", "So this is guilt, huh? In the past, I've always just counteracted this feeling with other emotions, like sugar or drunk.", "Ordinary morality is only for ordinary people."
Favorite television show: American Gothic
Do you have any hobbies?: Occult, reading, trying to learn, trying to find myself... that's a hobby, right? Hiking, looking for fae, looking for UFO's.
Anything else you wanna tell us?: I believe in aliens. Trying to find myself. Looking for answers and where to start.

]Magickal paths you've studied/practice: I guess that if there is one that I mostly practice it would be Chaos Magic

Favorite poet: Hate Poetry

Favorite book/s: Sci-Fi, Dr. EE Smith, Heinlein Occult, I have read lots of Cowley, Phil Hine, a little Cunningham, and a few others psionics- Charles Cosmano, mostly
Favorite film/s: The Star Wars series My wife introduced me to the Breaking Dawn - fun
Favorite quote: "The difficult we do now, the impossible just takes a little longer"
Favorite television show: Star Trek Second generation Star Gate
Do you have any hobbies? Wood Working Metal Working - forging, casting, lathe work, milling machine work, fishing, hunting, camping
Anything else you wanna tell us? I have been following my spiritual path for over 40 years and been dabbling in the occult for a little longer Never really got into magic that much, but now that I am retired, I am looking into it deeper. I am trying to make a couple servitors, per Cunningham's Creating Magical Entities, so far no success that I am aware of, but being I hardly ever remember my dreams and not that psychic, I could have created one and it might be yelling at me and I just can't hear it. LOL I do a little energy work (healing)- Reiki, touch for health, quantum Touch. I've built several psionic devices, and own a early radionic device. had good luck with plant yield, but not so much with healing. I can feel the energy from shapes, Pyramids, Cones, some flat drawings, crystals and from plants and some people. I have a spirit that plays tricks on me, mostly when working with tools, I will drop a tool and then when I can't find it, I will go to my tool box to get another wrench, etc. and find the one I dropped setting in the tool box. This has been going on for thirty plus years. It doesn't do anything else that I am aware of, so never seen the need to try to get it to go away. I have a knack with electronics, Electronic Engineer by profession, many times when something is not working and I am called to see if I can fix it, be the time I get to the location and test it, it is working fine (and continues to). I guess that might be considered a psychic ability but don't know what to call it.
