Hello! Thank you for asking. I am starting from scratch and I have no experience before.
What advice do you have for someone starting new?
Well, you said you wanted to focus on energy work, so I recommend starting with the books by Robert Bruce to learn the basics.

Hi,
You can call me AK. I am dabbling with magic for quite sometime (3 years). Donāt have any favorite kind of magic. Depending on the situation I choose my magic (Angels, demons, infernals, Chaos, Gods etc.)
Currently, I am planning to build my energy for practicing higher magic. I am from India. Hope to learn a lot from all of you.

Hi, my name is Axaraa/Allan, otherwise known by my pen name A. E. Wolfshadow. Iām from USA. My magickal name is Abraxa/Axarus. I am Non-binary but I use female names and pronouns to make it easier which is what I prefer even though Iām pretty gender fluid and in reality Iām probably beyond gender all together. I donāt care what pronouns or name you call me since I use both interchangeably.
I have been a practicing witch and grey magician since my early teens (Iām 32 now,) and I first started working with the demons of the Goetia since that age.
Iāve always been very eclectic in my magic, I donāt really conform to āmagickal normsā either lol. And my philosophy Iāve had in my magick since I was a teenager comes from Bruce Lee and ancient ninja philosophy of āTake only what is useful.ā
So I have studied in the course of my life basically all of the magickal religious and mystical systems of the world and fuse what I personally need and feel resonance with.
In my life Iāve studied Satanism, Sithism (that is using and studying the philosophy of the fictional Sith from Star Wars for a psionic based magick system), regular psionics, Zen Buddhism and other eastern system like Tao, Yoga, spiritual Ninjutsu, Hermetic and Golden Dawn system/some of Thelema, Druidism, shamanism, wicca/RHP paganism as well as dark and grey Paganism, Voodoo (I use the BALG Voodoo system with additions,) mystical Christianity and Gnosticism, and since I have been doing BALG courses heavily for several years now those practices have included the black magick BALG teaches for evocation, divination, and soul travel, and I have recently dived into the BALG Norse Viking Magick course and really Iāve dived pretty deep already.
And really anything else that works.
Iām also a member of Temple of Ascending Flame and I am working for initiation.
I am currently as of this writing doing a multitude of things, especially the Viking magick Pathworking and workings related to Asenath Mason/TOAF.
I am working on making soul travel more visceral. I am studying Robert Bruceās works and trying to combine it with the Soul travel course. I can see and hear but it still feels like imagination rather than a real separation of the bodies. I am trying to break the glass ceiling in this matter, as well as evoke to physical appearance a spirit in the full transfigured crossroads state where the spirit is real to my senses.
Iāve done several consultations with EA and I have been pathworking the majority of the content on BALG by myself, he suggested that I join the forum so here I am!
(BTW I have a black pyramid 
)

Hello. My name is Bri and I have been practicing Wicca on and off for about a decade now (nothing specific, I would always do rituals and work with gods that I felt drawn to at the time). As of late I have been very interested in works related to the inner self and subconscious mind, such as practices by Neville Goddard, Joseph Murphy, Florence Scovel Shinn etc. But I have recently started to incorporate magick into my practice again, and am currently using the techniques in NAP as a gateway back into the occult.
At the moment my amibition is to manifest love, and I am struggling to do so (I believe) because of past attachments. I am looking for further guidance in this area and wish to discover an appropriate entity that can help me through such a path.
Hi! Iām Alyana and I am very interested in black magick. Iām from the Philippines and sorry if my english is bad. I want to evoke spirits and learn from them. Do you guys know an easier way to do it? because I am poor and canāt afford the things needed in ritual and even if I have money, my family will found out and will be angry at me. But if thereās none, then Iāll just wait till I am at my right age to work so I can buy the things needed. I have a problem in my eye. I see double and I want it to be fixed. I want to become powerful and be able to do whatever I want. Iām also interested in soul traveling and want to learn more about it. Iām tired of my family deciding what to do in my life.
Welcome @shady
Do you have any practical experience in magick, or are you starting completely from the beginning?
Type āevocation guideā into the search bar, and click on the 4th option that comes up.

Howdy, Iām Bea. Nice to meet yāall.
Iāve been practicing some form of witchery for the past ten years or so, and have always been interested in the demonic, but never really took the plunge. Since the last two-ish years have just been an absolute gut-punch in regards toā¦ ya knowā¦ the everything? I figured now is a good time to try, maybe better my whole situation in the process.
I especially like candle spells and container spells. I know that I need to work on my meditation game, the whole ability to completely focus with no wandering mind eludes me (for now).
So yeah. Have a good one 
Welcome @midwitchbea
Where are you from?
Do you have experience in any specific systems or traditions?
Thank you
Iām from the US, in the Midwest.
I donāt necessarily have experience in specific systems or traditions, no. My āstyleā, I guess, is read and research a lot, and use what resonates with me personally. I have found that personalizing things to myself or to the situation in question gets better results than following rituals to the letter. Kind of like cooking? Use a recipe as the base, but add your own flair based on what you think/know would improve it.
