@Raven_6

its so important that more and more people begin to understand that all magick and power comes from within we just must work to untap it and harness it.

Yes I totally agree with you, all magick and power comes from within. Thank you so much, really glad you like the post and share similar view.

1 - A scammer will always give no promises and no guarantees. You’re basically gambling. Their deal will always be : give me your money, I will perform the ritual or spell, and you wait… then what you want may or may not happen. Do not accept such “deal”. If a magician or spell caster accepts helping you, then they should be confident enough in their ability to deliver results and guarantee that they you will see results or you get your money back. And never - ever - pay all they ask upfront.

2 - Scammers will always provide no real proof except self-promotion and stories to support their claims without any solid evidence that they can do anything. Anyone can record a video, post in a forum or fill a website with stories of their miracles! That doesn’t mean any of it is true… or false. If you’re paying your hard earned money, then you have the right to demand evidence and solid proof of someone’s ability to cause your desired change. “Reviews” and praise in comments on videos and forums mean nothing. People can easily pay for fake reviews, get their friends and affiliates and secret partners to say positive stories about them… it’s the internet and this is their business. Ask for proof that - you - can verify. If they can’t provide any proof or evidence to you, ignore all the hype.

Perhaps too late for this topic.

But I totally agree.

I confess that I have always been interested in trying out the occult service, but this “principle” that you have described has always kept me away.

On the other hand, I wonder: what kinds of proofs could a real occultist grant?

Personally I saw only one occultist who guaranteed results, but proof was just that, his word.

It seems your own intuition paired with research is the best proof before a purchase in these instances. I also think it’s important to not allow belief, desire, or desperation to influence your intuition. After a purchase, I guess results are the best indicator of authenticity, but you’ve already paid for the service at that point

“Practicing Hermetic magick by its nature instills the magician with a growing sense of divine authority”

Yes I totally agree with that statement. Let’s hope our Hermetic magician understands the responsibility that comes with that.

Here in the philippines we have a type of rural shaman that people who can’t afford doctors use. It’s all based on word of mouth about the practioners skill.
I actually had to use one once (very reluctantly) and I was stunned how skilled this RHP shaman healer was.

It’s too bad there’s so many scammers and charlatans out there. It reflects badly on the people that are actually skilled enough with thier art to make a living at it based on word of mouth only.
