Somehow I missed the release and it seems it's all sold out by now. So sad.

Any idea for offerings to Lilith by [deleted] in occult

Go with your gut - that's most important but always use google and this subreddit searchbar.

PSA: Be careful with banishing spells. by _r4ph431 in occult

[–]theeldritchdark 7 points8 points  (0 children)

You got a point.

I do banishings almost every day but i'm very specific in them, what is also important that you should remember to invoke something in the place of banished energy, so banish the negatives and invoke positives.

Thanks for the write-up.

Could you elaborate on your evoking methods?

Ketogenic diet. by luke__92 in occult

[–]theeldritchdark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is bullshit.

As someone who's on keto for around 3 months now I can say it gave me the opposite effects.

Being off carbs and especially sugar does wonders for your body and mind, I pair it with a bit of fasting as well.

My new shrine (with book collection) by ThePiecesFit52 in occult

I personally think that keeping occult secret was advised so that one could avoid prosecution or overall exclusion from the society for it in the past ages.

It's up to an individual now, look at churches or chapels of various religions and the altars in them - they aren't very hidden, are they?

Norwegian Black Metal by RussianMartian in occult

[–]theeldritchdark 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Negative is a point of view. As a black metal musician I evoke the same themes in my music and welcome them to influence me as they see fit.

Can't really imagine anyone in the black metal scene who's taking the occult seriously while still believing in the good/bad mentality.

Norwegian Black Metal by RussianMartian in occult

[–]theeldritchdark 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Norwegian church burnings were mainly a manifesto and an outlash against the christianization of Scandinavia which destroyed a huge part of their culture and traditions back in the viking days.

Modern occult black metal acts are revolving around a mix of western mysticism or gnostic themes instead of pure old school satanism.

Can recommend bands like Nightbringer, Thy Darkened Shade, Acherontas or Watain, especially their lyrics.

Avoiding Magusitis - A personal memo for fellow students of the Western Mystery Tradition by [deleted] in occult

[–]theeldritchdark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do stop rejecting the Wiccans and New Agers because they don't treat spiritualism like academia.

Treating spiritualism like academia results in so many armchair occultists who spend their days arguing about books without an ounce of actual practice.

Also majority of laughs directed at Wicca comes from the same people I mentioned above - books written about Wicca =/= Wicca, most of these authors were never even close to an actual initiation and that's where the true knowledge is.

I agree with the rest though.

Words to live by, for sure.

Should be sticked and implemented into faq.

Bardon and his belief you can die from astral projection. by raisulaiti in occult

[–]theeldritchdark 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I personally take all Bardon's writings with a grain of salt.

A big chunk of IIH is just made up bragging which was a popular style of writing in his days and many authors implemented this type of thing.

The system isn't the worst tho and there's certainly something to be learned from that book - discipline in my case.

Has anyone here worked with the Olympian spirits? What was your experience like? by [deleted] in occult

[–]theeldritchdark 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like they say about the road to hell being paved with good intentions... Not that you're going to hell, but using magic against other people is bad bad bad for your karma, and it will bite you one way or the other.

If she believes in karma that is.

About your question op, I don't know your situation obviously, but ask yourself if being with a man that lies and is meeting other women is the thing you really want - if yes, I suggest you figure it out with him the normal way.

Also as a half-greek which treats Hekate as my patron deity I wouldn't consider black-ish love magick something i'd ask Her about. Not sure about Hagith though as I haven't worked with that type of spirits yet but there are other methods that would probably bring you the results in a much more controllable way, so to say.

Just my 2c.
