I thought I would post a formal greetings to the forum.
I'm getting back to my "metaphysical roots" after a 10-year absence from this area of interest. For some reason I was recently prompted to look for any of the Dennings & Phillips AS books that I once owned, and this seemed like an awakening of sorts for me. I ended up finding and devouring the book Postmodern Magic, getting an idea of some "modern theories" which resonate with me in a way that chaos magick never quite did; and I've since been exploring various topics of interest while I settle on the right path for me. I've always had an interest in CM with its intellectual (in a sense) underpinnings, and its general philosophies.
Although I've been away from the concepts of magick for awhile, I will say that I started a yoga practice a coupe of years ago. This was a focus on ashtanga and vinayasa yoga, which included studying the philosphies and sutras that are part of yoga. I've found, however, that those eastern ideas don't always resonate so well with me. Not the way that western thinking and, dare I say, hermetics do.
Throw in my long-standing interest in hypnosis and NLP, and well, here I am! *whew* Sorry for the semi-rambling.
In summary, heya! (IMG:
