Hello from Brooklyn, NY
« on: October 30, 2014, 05:47:01 pm »
Hello all,

I've lurked a bit in the past, but have never posted. I suppose I fell out of the forum form when FB seemed to have taken it down a peg, but I have been introduced to many good people, and interesting avenues, which I would never have known of, through internet forums, dealing with anything from music, to wine, to a myriad of subjects related to the occult, witchcraft and other subjects, that have held my interest, for a very long time.

I'm a 39 year old man, who lives in Brooklyn, NY. I'm a painter, sound artist, I've run a very small record label since 1999, and I've manage a wine store for quite some time.

Though I may have spent the majority of my 20s pursuing the knowledge of "high magic", through the GD/OTO and adjacent systems, I've always had a pull to more earth bound traditions. My family raised me Roman Catholic, in an all Italian household, and always seemed to be a little more pagan than even they know.

My first books on witchcraft were by Sybil Leek, that I purchased from a local bookseller, in my home town, back in 1986 or '87, and I was hooked on anything to do with hidden knowledge, from that moment forward.

I've never really done anything biblically-miraculous, but I've learned to consistently be a better man, lead a virtuous life, and treat the people and things around me with respect and reverence.

Anyhow, I look forward to reading what you all have to say.

I O Pan
Anthony
