Well, I am new to this community as a whole. I have only recently begun to evaluate and evolve my beliefs into... something more...

I have actually started to find myself with a very eclectic set of beliefs and ideas. I am very much into the occult as well as witchcraft (what little I know of it)... also, the idea of chaos magic intrigues me as well...

I'm going to cut and paste from another thread I made where I believe I worded my personal beliefs very well:

I follow a very interesting set of beliefs. I believe in the God of judeo-christian faiths, I believe in Lilith, and I believe a number of norse pagan deities.

I have also learned a few things from a Druid friend of mine and find the precepts that I learned from her to be very admirable and I have started to look to them for basis laws within my own life... the 9 virtues are something I can aspire to...

I am one to believes that nothing can be obtained without sacrifice, and the norse god Odin is a god who's fundamental principles are sacrifice for knowledge, and insofar as I have learned about the norse beliefs, there is no such thing as sin to be forgiven per se, but instead mistakes that should be learned from and not repeated.

Paradoxically, I look to the judeo-christian God as one of forgiveness and warmth, and see it as something that can let me know that my past is something I can move past and that the mistakes I make are not ones that have to follow me. I know very well that biblical records point to God as nothing along the lines of warm or forgiving, but I believe that as humanity has evolved, so too, has God.

what I draw from Lilith is that one can draw strength from suffering, and I have had a lot of hardships in my life and I feel that I need to to accept this and feel that I can rise above these hardships to achieve what I wish... otherwise I might as well commit suicide in order to be rebirthed into the world, for my lot in this life is one I often feel is too harsh to bear (and this is something very personal that I will not share with someone easily, especially online).


I am really hoping to get to know all of you a bit better and I'd very much like to chat with any of you, and I would appreciate and love for people to contact me on one of messengers to get some chats going... so feel free to be friendly with me
