"To be successful in any endeavour you need to have a plan on where you want to be or what you want to accomplish. I know that a lot of you are you going say that you have no idea on what is possible or where you can go with these topics and that's fine. Set your first goal as refining, learning and understanding where you want take your esoteric path. If you already know where you want to journey, you need to find the path that best suits you. Are you into traditional magick or ceremonial magick? Voodoo or witchcraft? Psionics or chaos magick? There are many paths you can go on and deciding what path you are comfortable with makes the journey smoother. Trust me when I say it is not a smooth ride so any level of comfort helps.After figuring out what your core level answers are, start reading and researching different paths. In future videos we will bring more in depth info to each path. Still even then you must know the path you choose is right. Dont worry about picking the wrong path, as you will certainly end up changing back and forth throughout your learning and find commonalities between each. I started with wiccan, then moved to ceremonial, over to traditional pagan and back to ceremonial over my time. This happens and ok, the point is to grow your soul and learn."Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/EsotericScholarWebsite: http://esotericscholar.com/Facebook: fb.me/esotericscholar

The adept magician knows these things, and the aspiring magician will learn these things. They may not realize they have learned them but over time they become apparent to at least the subconscious. When people start the path of a ritual practice, they try hard to be perfect and want everything to go right. This is a crucial time to understand that you are beginning and it is ok to make mistakes and learn through trial and error. I was doing some ritual the other day, and realized that there are things that books and occult guides and gurus don't tell you. Well, they don't tell you in such black and white that I am about to lay it out like.

Let's do a quick run down of the fools journey, the major and minor arcana ideas, and my thoughts on how you connect and read the tarot.

I can’t really tell you why I bought this book, but the journey up to it was somewhat of a domino effect throughout a series of events, I stumbled upon Frater Ashen through the Glitch Bottle podcast. This particular episode they were discussing the book and several other Occult matters and is one of the first podcasts from Glitch Bottle I have listened too, I was intrigued. I found Glitch Bottle podcast through the Recommended feed on youtube after listening to the Occulture podcast. The Occulture Podcast, I found through the recommended feed from listening to the Occult of Personality podcast, and I have known Gregs work from way back in the day when it was on episode 10 and just a small site he was doing as a hobby.

I haven't quite seen a book on planetary magick that puts together such a detailed list of correspondences as this one has.
