I was dabbling in catholic folk magic at the time and ran into this strange lady at a train station, we got to talking and the topic of religion comes up and it turns out she was into folk magic too but obviously at a much more advanced level than me.
She was very sweet if a little odd, gave me a tiny like jar thing of some sort of oils and herbs in it with wax covering it and told me to look after it. I had insanely good luck for the week after, I still have no idea what she used in it but whatever it is solidified that this is the correct path for me.

I went through a few paths starting out with new age stuff like chakras & reiki etc, then wicca and general paganism, even some light chaos. But when I found Ceremonial Magic, I found myself liking the structure and that it made sense to me. I found myself actually getting good results, especially with the Arbatel and it's my go to comfort zone

When I realised that instead of using it to change the world around me, I could have better results changing me in the world. Internalising instead of externalisng. Suddenly, you see the world moulding to you, only with daily practice do I feel it illuminates me.

Honestly, it was the moment that I realized if I tried to go back, it could not possibly ever be the same again. The only way was forward or stagnation, and stagnation was boring.
