That is still basically eons from wher I currently live at the edge of the know (unknown, rather) world :) I don't know where it all started. I would have to say that I got interested in Wicca, Chaos Majick, Thelema, Kabbalism all at the same time (now there is a scary thought) I know people who follow those paths and I met them all about the same time. And with me being pagan, I was naturally curious about the majick aspect of it. And I wanted to learn them all. I would be what one would call a smorgasbord mage. I take what feels right, no matter what the type of majick, and make it my own, bit by bit. KB> Love is the law, love under will.

Makes sense. I used to be involved in "general aviation" when I was quite young. I experienced an "altered state" (although I didn't know to call it that at first!) whenever I got a chance to fly. Alas, I lost those chances. But when I discovered drugs, and then (much later!) trance, I realized that all three were paths to "Furthur"...and the delicious pun of getting "high" up in a plane was not lost on me!

Well, I write rightie, and generally use my right hand for things requiring extremely fine motor skills. But I can only snap my fingers with my left hand; my right hand produces no sound.

Pereira Area: MagickNet To: Lei 21 May 94 12:36:04 Subject: Magick UpdReq Li> I have two questions. #1: What is the difference between Li> Norse magic and Celtic magic? I read two books on both topics, and Li> they both seem to have many similartities, not a lot of differences. What have you been reading? Sight unseen, my guess is that if you're not seeing a lot of differences, your books are not that great. Is the author D.J.Conway by any chance? Most books on Norse Magic involve runes, and a number of different things you can do with runes. Some authors to look into would be Edred Thorrson, and Kveldulf Gundarsson. Norse magic (using the term very loosely) can also involve poetry, trance-work, making vows and a number of other things that would require a lot of explanation to go into. 201434369420143436942014343694201434369420143436942014343694718 From: Ace Lightning Area: MagickNet To: Bullwinkle 28 May 94 14:56:06 Subject: REINCARNATION UpdReq BU>White with black stripes! *BONNNNGGG!* Give that man the praesiodymium chamberpot!
