Hiya, call me Rai or Stormy. Ive been on my left hand path journey for a few years but I’ve felt a calling since I was child. I always felt a entity or something watching over me. And latter in life after doing some research and finally reaching out to this entity I had an experience. I saw her/them. Well they were tall feminine in like features. It was an odd feeling. I felt afraid but overjoyed? Had tears running down my face. (This was after weeks of trying to forcefully open my 3rd eye and awaken spiritual through meditation) yet I blacked out afterward and awoke next day with a hand print mark above my bed. Since then I’ve noticed I sometimes have dreams about things happening and then weeks to months later they happen.like dejavu almost. And if I will something I want or tp happen strong enough it will happen or I’ll get what I desire. I still feel the entities presence. I call her/them Lyra. But thats my story and please be gentle I’m not that accomplished as a mage. Im still learning just I figured a my back story would help in introducing myself.
Welcome to the forum.
Do you actively practice anything?
Any experience in specific systems or traditions of magick?
Yes I practice meditation and I’ve read somethings by Ford and various other authors. I don’t really label myself or anything, I’ve tried making contact with Lucifer and Lilith and have felt things but at the same time alot of my rituals are homebrewed if you know what I mean. I’m novice and I want to become more aware and enlightened in my spiritual growth. Jumping in, so strongly with forcefully opening my 3rd eye was, well dumb.
Thank you for elucidating more upon your experience, and again, welcome to the BALG forum.
