My neighbor Craig is an older gentleman, about five to ten years older than me, Im 53.
He, like me, has problems with Schizophrenia related disorders, and generalized Anxiety disorder (I also have major depression and borderline personality disorder, in addition to epilepsy and sleep disorders related to insomnia). The reason why I chose to steer him onto this path was because I could see something in him, and he was not doing well in recovery related groups for alternate means of therapy.
He told me he wakes up with nightmarish anxiety often, and I knew I had to teach him.
I took him back to the edge of the complex on a small maintenance service drive used as a shortcut to get to the remote edges of the complex area. I taught him that day, side by side, step by step, the Qabalistic Cross, the Lesser Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram, and the Qabalistic Cross. It helped him greatly.
He is not only a Witch by agreement of points of the rede, and an interest in witchcraft, as I know all us witches are as newbies, but I saw more in him. He can become a magician if he so chooses, and Christophers book is terrific. Modern Magick is good too, but it ventures into Goetia, which I want him to steer clrear of, that would hut him spiritually as well as mentally, as it did to me.
So, I write this success story of not only seeing potential talent in him, but turning him onto the right resources to become successful at magic and witchcraft.
