I love esoteric stuff!

The 19th century occultist Joséphin Sar Peladan wrote in his work Comment on devient mage:
"Do not look for another measure of magical power than that the power within you, nor for another way to judge a being than by the light that he sheds To perfect yourself by becoming luminous, and like the sun, to excite the ideal life latent around you—there you behold all the mysteries of the highest initiation." There's merit in that.

Mind you many esoteric subjects as well as occultism are riddled with a lot of bullshit and many critics take advantage of that to discredit it altogether - but there are gems to be found.

I'm reading a book at the moment called Learning Ritual Magic: Fundamental Theory and Practice for the Solitary Apprentice - it's quite interesting.

Any reading recommendations and resources will be appreciated if linked in this thread. Things like mentalist and good magic tricks (not cheap gimmicks), showing people cool stuff and having them ask "how did you do that?!" is really enjoyable and people remember it.

It sounds like you have the vibration thing figured out, but if you struggle with it, you could practice out loud when you have privacy to get a feel for it.

Yes, those are the tools I was talking about. If you can store that stuff discretely, then you should be good to go for continuing with the book.

For book recommendations, I will first give the disclaimer that I’m not an expert/adept/whatever, there are many books to choose from, and different people would recommend different books. Also, it is a common mistake (that I’ve made myself many times) to jump from one book/system to another without working any of them long enough to make meaningful progress. The key to progress is putting in the work and sticking with it—not finding the best book. If you like Modern Magick, you should continue to work with it until you've gotten everything from it that you can.

With that in mind, I will say that I am fond of John Michael Greer as an author. While I’m more interested in his work on Druidry, he does have a trio of books, which I've seen recommended, that relate to the kind of magick in Krieg's book:

Learning Ritual Magic

Circles of Power

Paths of Wisdom

Israel Regardie's The Golden Dawn is probably also worth reading for the original GD teachings that JMG and DMK learned from.

Then try meditating for just five minutes at any given time, maybe in the morning and in the evening or when it is oppurtune for you to do so. Maybe you should if you live where it is possible go to a public ritual and see how it goes. I can only encourage you to read and to do research, maybe trough the Inet . Find something that fits you, your life and will to commit. Here are a few book recommendations for you:https://www.amazon.com/Pagan-Portals-Discover-Unlock-Natural/dp/1785350765/ref=sr_1_15?ie=UTF8&qid=1501097009&sr=8-15&keywords=pagan+portals

Sorry if they are a bit basic but it is a good start. I have excluded Chaos magic and satanism as i dont have much knowledge in these fields and dont want to give you wrong infos.

> IMO: Let's do this with Lessons 1 and 2 at the same time. I'm currently reading Cicero's auto-initiation. There are a few nice and simple practices in there that we could use :)

I'm going to put up a Lesson 2 post probably on Sunday. At some point, probably soon, I'd like to talk about "additional practices." I mean practices from books other than MM-- the Cicero book is a big one, and also a couple of John Michael Greer's books (Paths of Wisdom and Learning Ritual Magick) that can be usefully incorporated into the Modern Magick regimen. I'd be very interested to hear your thoughts. Are you working with the god-forms from Self-Initiation?
