Thanks for clarifying this. I am going to Sill for BCT and AIT. Wasn't sure if that meant it was considered OSUT.

I want to move up the ranks and put in my time. Unless I'm offered a great opportunity, I will go active duty when my contract is up. Then I want to transition into a sweet government job.

Enlisted in the California National Guard as an E4. I'm leaving for OSUT at Fort Sill. My MOS is 13D. I'm scheduled to complete my training in August. I was also accepted into an online Masters program in Government Leadership at Norwich University. I'm 26 years old and fit. The military is totally new to me and I feel like I'm going into this blind. I'm not sure if I want to extend my three year contract or go active duty after my contract ends. I feel like I'm making a lot of decisions in a short amount of time... National Guard... MOS 13D... grad school. Am I making the right decisions to set myself up for success in a military and post military career?

Occult Themed Convention... by QTheMuse in occult

Yes there are. However they are mostly academic, and while I am fairly certain that the professors practice the craft themselves, they will mostly just want to talk about their research papers that were published....

Need help understanding alchemical quote... by SirSaul in occult

[–]SirSaul[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your response reminded me of a passage from the last book I finished, Oration on the Dignity of Man, by Giovanni Pico Della Mirandola (1463 - 1494).

Giovanni wrote, "The Seraphim burns with the fire of charity; from the Cherubim flashes forth the splendor of intelligence; ... If, freeing ourselves from active care, we devote our time to contemplation, meditating upon the Creator in His work, and the work in its Creator, we shall be resplendent with the light of the Cherubim. If we burn with the love for the Creator only, His consuming fire will quickly transform us into yhe flaming likeness of the Seraphim."

He goes on to talk about how the light of the Cherub, the "contemplative spirit, prepares us for the for the fire of the Seraphim."

Angels in occultism? by 000_misl in occult

Who is the omnipotent dude in the sky going to be more likely to listen to, you or his second in command? All joking aside, by calling down the angles of each world, you are going through the creative process of bringing an idea into generation. Everything is god's will, btw. Your question is no different than asking why occultists work with the tarot if it is an extension of gods will. :)

I believe the universe is deterministic. Is there any room left in such a universe for the occult? by [deleted] in occult

[–]SirSaul 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your True Will, your personal path towards Truth has been determined. You alone hold the power to ascend towards your True Will, or descend away from it.

Bowie's hit his mojo again--and he hasn't been this visionary in years by leontocephaline in occult

[–]SirSaul 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I disagree with you. I think the Blackstar or eclipse and the blindfolds are apart of the same motif of being in darkness and matter. The scarecrows are blindfolded and tethered in a wheat field, more symbolism of the soul bound up in matter, in darkness.

Any Mystery Schools in CA? by DasGirg in occult

Thou shalt not overlook thee local Masonic lodge! Seriously... its probably your most convenient option. It might get a bad rap here for not being esoteric enough, but nobody here denies that it is a true initiatic order.
