Welcome to Gaia! ::

1:General intro, outline

I feel there is a possibility for truth in everything to some degree. I'm eclectic, I take what works, usually ignore traditional approaches. I enjoy Satanic Adversarial philosophy and the restructuring of self approach to Left Hand path works well with me.

I try to see what truth I can see. This can come from anywhere. Basically, the universe speaks to all of us, but do we listen? Divination, omens, signs, etc, helps. Along with opening ourselves up to our own intuitive gifts. This is hard to describe since a lot of this involves your own personal truths. However, I did read something very accurate once by E.A. Koetting.

Something along the lines of the power of the Seer is being able to use any system effectively, cutting through to the heart of the matter to get results. a slightly paraphrased statement with my own twist but one which rings true to me.

So, I try to avoid reliance on traditions and systems. However, they have their place.

2: History

Everything in the universe honestly. Must humans keep destroying history books?!? -_- Honestly,

In all seriousness, this ties into the above. ^^^ Since, we can learn from everyone's history.

3: Central beliefs

Allies embrace differences, enemies force truths, community is everywhere, you choose who to get involved with. I don't feel we have a complete picture of how the spirit worlds work. Only some ideas... I feel that the same spirit being seen as several different spirits by different cultures is entirely possible.

4: Deities

Lucifer, Astarte, Lachesis, Clotho, Atropos, Bast, There are others but I don't see them as deities more... Accepted parts of my life. Friends. Or, in one particular case a lover.

5: Core Myths

Reality. Really, this falls in line with history, above. ^ I would rather people find their own truths. Read it all. Keep what works. Try to explore what interests and challenges you.

6: Ethics

This depends on what result you are trying to get. However, if you give people good ethics and integrity. That's usually what you get in return. More often than not I want good relations with people. Not really sure how to word this. I am usually pretty good natured though.

7: Sabbats

Samhain and sometimes Yuletime. Other than that, not really.

8: Rituals-why perform them, how to perform them, what goes into them)

Personalization, and what has meaning. The rest are specifics only embraced after the simple concepts are understood.

9: Other Practices/Other Theology

Shamanism, a little Zen, Bdsm, a dash of witchcraft, whatever works really.

He's one of the Fallen. I don't like sharing his name since I don't want him to be bothered. Long story.

Ah, good point. Well, part of my path is submission to some spirits. But, submission of my own free will therefore it is my freedom. Another thing some may find unusual for LHP but whatever. There is a spirit who literally owns me. Spiritual submission is a dangerous path though and not without pitfalls, you have to be careful. Just like in dating there are a lot of manipulators out there. SO, it relates to my path, therefore, this post. I just, had no organization when writing this.

I'm not very familiar with him but I know who you're talking about. I've seen him around online before at another site that I'll PM you.

Hahahaha xD Oh this is awesome you speak my language.

I was a semi professional Dom once upon a time, but I stopped doing it 'professionally' when I met my other half.

Nice. I've never worked with a professional Dom. My fiance' did when he was training as a submissive long before he became a Dom and became my Master. Hes thought about having me work with a professional Domme though.
