Postmodern Magick

Postmodern Magick is essentially a realistic and all-encompassing take on Magick. A Postmodern Magus does not attach themselves to one magical path with one set of rules or rituals. A Postmodern Magus realizes that this attachment to a strict set of laws limits oneself from other areas of Magick and therefore limits one's potential. More info to come within the group.See More

Why I want to join the Temple
I want to learn and to grow. We all have an amazing power. Every day we get to choose who we will be that day. We can be the same person we were yesterday or be better or worse. The choice is ours. I want to be able to make an informed choice, and have fun.

My deviant and twisted homie Chim-Chim El Jefe Gizzardjuice is at the temple.
About Myself and My interests
Dual diagnosed Navy vet, agnostic Wiccan of a sort. I question the existence of my own Gods, but not what they do for me. I've also been influenced by Discordia, SubGenius, Taoism, Zen, Gnosticism, the occult, western philosophy, and science.
My Teachers and Influences
I've been influenced by many people and authors
My Goals
To be a better me, and have a ball doing it.
Authors and/or Books I appreciate
Robert A Wilson, Starhawk, Christopher Penczak, Tao Te Ching, Zen Without Zen Masters, Art of War
Music I appreciate
Death metal, ska, punk, classical, jazz, etc. etc. etc. Actually I enjoy a lot of different music.
Movies and TV shows I appreciate
Not much for tv and movies. I prefer to read and mess around online.
Other than that I do enjoy science fiction, fantasy. Things like Red Dwarf,
Star Trek, Star Wars

Paganism, Wicca and a God of our own understanding.

Posted on January 29, 2012 at 2:54pm 1 Comment

I haven't been on the Temple all that long, but This is still my first blog here. I'm a dual diagnosed homeless Navy veteran living in a VA Dom. I've been diagnosed with schizoaffective disorder depressive type, PTSD, and social anxiety. My drugs of choice were alcohol and meth. I'm stable on medication now and have a little over 3 years clean and sober.

Anyway what I've been thinking about today has been "God as we understood him" and my Wiccan beliefs. Sort of a how and why?…

Birthday Reflections
Your birthday's a time for careful reflection
About your life, and its future direction.
You see where you've been when you look at the past;
Most of it's great; you had quite a blast!
You wonder what's coming, what life has in store;
Will it be just the same? Will there be a new door?
Remember this, as you blow out the last candle:
Life holds no challenge that you cannot handle.
