so how do I get into the things that work? and to which significance do they work?

High magick is largely subjective. There are people that will swear by their school of magick. It's like religion. So you cannot know unless you do it yourself.

In order to get into the one of the fields that I mentioned, just google them and do your research on them. Perhaps get a book and start from there.

What about Thelema? Does it fall into New Age Crap, is it worthwhile in it's own and/or has it any value to study it in order to get in touch with older traditions from which it is derived?


Checked

Don't bother with anything post 18th century, especially if you don't understand things from earlier. Start with plato and the Platonic philosophers, then look into Pythagoreanism, Christianity, Hermeticism, gnosticism (the early movements for example Zosimos of Panopolis, Simon Magus, as well medieval bogomilism, don't bother with the rest at all).

From ancient documents, the New testament and the septuigint, the Corpus Hermeticum, the apocrypha are essential.

The Cyranides, the Hygromanteia, the Key of Solomon, Abramelin and some necromancy grimoires are also very interesting.

For literature, imo The way of the pilgrim is a must read, in my opinion.


>God fucking damn it it’s another retard Christcuck that calls everything he doesn’t understand demons

'hurr duurr I believe in all magick systems despite the fact that they're literally mutually exclusive and incoherent and I'm so naive that i'm denying any possible explanation christcuck'
