Iā€™m a Magician first and foremost.

Crowley is great, but only if just like him youā€™re a genius with a classical education.

Arthur Edward Waite is a waste of time and money. Still popular with armchair types, dictionary to hand. Spent early on studying Wicca, but who doesnā€™t. In January 1976 I had the paperback of The Devilā€™s Prayer Book !

Before the internet youā€™ve absolutely no idea just how fucking hard it was to get anything useful, all the more so when you were just growing pubes and donā€™t have money or a driverā€™s licence. It was cruel but I persevered.

Taoist Magick is great and has a lhp but itā€™s not my scene. The Tao de Jing is a nasty little book but well worth the effort; as is Sun Tzuā€™s The Art of War and Machiavelliā€™s The Prince . All three are political in nature.

Of the two Antonā€™s - LaVey and Long - both taught me precious, learnt knowledge. However, it was Peter James Carroll who made me a Magician!

Very familiar with Sun Tzu and Lao Tzu. I did my university dissertation on them and the I Ching.

I use everything to achieve my goals and develope myself (both Spiritual and Physical). No limits existence in my head and no emotions that can hold me back.

Iā€™m just like a bloody Warrior, a Soldier (as my real names means: Warrior God) who came down to evolve, while opens Gates between Worlds, Dimensions. But here, I can be a Leader. a Ruler, a fearsome, uninhibited Strategist, immoral Manipulator.

ā Consume. Adapt. Evolve. Overcome. āž

In my life, and even in my past lifes, War, Fight and Blood are was always take a serious part of me. Iā€™m up to continue the battle, and my lessons from my Godself, from the Life, from Abaddon. For I know, We have a historyā€¦ serve under His leadership and much more.

A Warrior what I was I am I will.

An occultist. 30 degrees Pisces, so ready to jump off the wheel. (But I quite like it here.) A friend.

All of my other hats, I have thrown off in disgust or disillusionment in the past.

Warlockā€™s not a good term for it. A warlock is a traitor of the coven though if a coven suggests you never work with demons within the coven, then yeah, a warlock would be the term.

A warlock is just a term for male magicians i thought?

Thatā€™s the common thought due to Hollywood using it as a term for male witches and writings as well. A male witch is still a male witch. Thatā€™s what Iā€™ve been told by practising witches anyway, I could be wrong

This comes up a lot in various places. Warlock has different meanings. In old english it means faith breaker or one who is in league with the devil. In modern scots however it means male witch, wizard, sorcerer. I looked up the history of the word. In anycase, a word is a word anyway and the spirits donā€™t really care what we call ourselves at least from my experience anyway.

I like to think of myself as a Chaos Mage or Sorcerer if I am really feeling powerful. I like that in Chaos magick, you get to research all the sources to find whatever you need to accomplish your ends. You are never trapped by any one dogma or philosophy. I really enjoy creating my own rituals as well as borrowing pieces and/or ideas from the many different schools of magick.
