If I may ask. What is the Left Hand Path. And is there a Right Hand Path??
Letās take this off of the intro tread give me an hour or so and I will message you as you canāt yet you are to new.
Hi, my name is Giovanni
-
Iāve been practicing magic for about 5 months. I have only done divination evoking Aset, and chaos magic.
-
I donāt follow a particular system when doing my divination work except bringing traditional offerings and gifts to Aset that I know she likes. When I do a ritual with her I usually start with a prayer, a tarot reading, a passage from the book of the dead that I flip to randomly, and end with another prayer.
-
I donāt have much practical experience with magic since Iām a beginner, however I have been reading occult literature for a bit over a year now.

I am from Florida
-
I wish to be at a point in my life financially to be able to help people in many different avenues and possibly pursue my hobbies further (music specifically) I also wish to find a life long partner and have a fulfilling relationship
Oh welcome I am from Florida I wonder if we are neighbors.
Hello, my name is Marc and I am from LA. I am a daemonic current LHP practitioner for 10 years
Hi Iām new here, Iām from Philippines and I want to practice protection spells since Iām new to this, you can recommend a book about healing and protection
PS if youāre From Philippines please teach me Iām willing to learn before I advance to other areas.
Thank you for doing an introduction as requested @Magi200
So what, exactly, do you practice? Do you follow a specific system or tradition?
What are your areas of magical interest?
Iām from Balkans, 20 yo. I want to learn as much as possible about everything beyond human understanding. My priorities now are to find out how to make a good ritual of invoking Marbas for health, and demons in charge of wealth due to my bad financial situation. In the future I want to expand my knowledge to other fields as well.
- Iām a begginer, i literally know nothing about how to summon a demon.
- I havenāt had any summoning before.
- My country is Ortodox Christian, but Iām not a Christian. Iām more of a spiritualist.
- My interests right now are mainly focused on how to heal myself with alternative things because conventional medicine has no cure for my conditions (yet).
Welcome to the forum @MineByNight, thanks for the intro
Necromancy and Western demonic magic, stemming mainly from the Goetia. I like exploring ancient mythos and finding the rarer fruits of the world of magic
Hi, My name is Rafael, i am from Brazil. I have some practices in goetia, but the majority were theoretical, only a few were practical, I seek knowledge in every egregore, without prejudice towards any and I am here to learn
Welcome @Pairars
How long have you practiced?
Do you follow a specific system or tradition?
What are your areas of magical interest?
approximately 3 years I donāt follow any specific system, Iām a fan of anything that sparks my curiosity I am interested in many areas of magic, but mainly in demonolatry and paganism
You can call me Light, for short. I have been practicing for 6years. I had no choice, but to follow this path because I found out that I had been a vampire servant for 4yrs. So I started out from nothing and studied to escape with my life while being voodoo attacked every night. Arch Angel Raziel was a big help, but also sudduced me, as Angels can sometimes do. He became controlling and abusive and I am slowly trying to recover from it, by finding the best way to keep him from controlling my dreams. Any thoughts? But now I have a bigger problem. I believe my enemy did a spell to make it so that Lucifer would attach to me and not leave. And thatās exactly whatās happening right now. So if anyone can help I would greatly appreciate it. I have tried every banishing I know of. Thank you!
Welcome @FiresReflection
Where are you from?
Practicing what, exactly?
Do you follow a specific system or tradition?
What are your areas of magical interest?
Iām from central Canada. I was raised Christian. I have been practising Chaos Magick and divination via tarot card and pendulum plus meditation for about a decade, RHP Wicca and neopaganism (Norse, Celtic and Hellenic) for about 6 years, dabbled into studying some Golden Dawn and angel work for about 3 years, and LHP demonolatry for about half a year. I also do some plant medicine and feel called to some shamanic practice.
For practical experience⦠many. Even in my childhood I had a very strong sixth sense and Iāve had many experiences with spirits. Iāve spoken to my deceased grandfather and received information I could not have known that I verified with my grandmother, Iāve done some channeling, sigil magic, some invocation and evocation, some readings for people, some healing energy work, reiki, astral travel, work with the akashic records and past lives, past life hypnosis, dream divination. I also create improv music which feels like a magical experience.
I consider myself a predominantly right hand path practitioner but feel called to balance off what was strictly light side work for a long time. I donāt know that Iād say I follow a specific pathworking but the dominant amount of my practical work is on healing, mediumship, divination, past life channelling, herb/plant and crystal based magick, some law of attraction. Iām just trying to broaden my knowledge of occult fields in general. I have no IRL connections who share my occult interests and Iām not very accustomed to interacting with other people in my practice. I decided to join because Iāve lurked here a lot.
Iām currently aspiring to learn more about djinn, demons, angels, Kabbalah, and sound magic. Sound as magick because I feel called to it and the darker side because I feel disbalanced after years of angel-healing-light-etc related work. In the longer scheme I aspire to learn more about shamanistic plant healing and ceremony as well as traditional ceremonial high magick, since a lot of what Iāve done has been casual private practice. I also aspire to write some books.
I have read quite a lot of books.
As for quite currently, Iām working on some demonolatry which is a significant deviation from my usual path but it felt like the time for it. The demons Iām working with at present are Azazel, Stolas and the very uncommonly mentioned Amy / Auns. I use Gordon Winterfieldās book and the Demonolaterās Handbook. Iāve also read some Asenath Mason and Damon Brand (particularly his work on angels).
In my non-magickal life I am into TTRPG and I make fantasy maps for my living plus I enjoy writing speculative fiction.
No pictures at this time.
Welcome to the BALG forum from another Canadian!
Thank you for the welcome, fellow Canadian and DarkestKnight!
Hey, you can call me Beastsoul for now. Iām not comfortable sharing my real name due to concerns about societal judgment and the transparency of the internet. Iāve been on the Left-Hand Path for nearly 17 years and am currently in my 40s. I started with LaVeyan Satanism and even worshipped Satan as a literal entity. Later, I followed the Joy of Satan ministries, but it led me into a deep depression. To find balance, I turned to worshiping Indian goddesses and deities. Recently, I felt drawn back to Satan, which initially caused anxiety, but meditating on Lucifer helped me regain my stability. I now feel they are distinct entities. Iām here to grow and evolve, both physically and emotionally.
