Okay, so while that federates:
Anyone have #fediverse #microblog #app recommendations?

Nags quick start reading list for the #secular #occultist
I'm Nagaram and I'm an #Atheist Occultist. I believe there is power in all sorts of magic, but its more practical than super natural.
Magic, gods, and the occult is a good psychological tool to help us navigate life both in a material and mental way.
The basis for my understanding of Secular Occultism is with
"Atomic Habits" -James Clear
This is the foundational text in my pseudo religion because it explains the psychological aspect of habit building and how this let's us slowly build to a better self. Importantly I'm tying the concept of affirmations to the magical conception of it and even intentions. I'm also looking at Habit Catalysts as Magic Rituals in that ritual magic helps us stay on task with our grander plans by being an easy habit we can build into a proper habit stack that ultimately culminates in our magic working.
From here I see the reading list as a choose your own adventure. So long as you understand that nearly all magic you will ever learn about is simply an affirmation with an aesthetic, there really isn't a wrong choice.
But for me I know what influenced me down this path.
"Pathways to Bliss" -The Joseph Campbell foundation
Another secular read. This book was about myth and legends as tools for self help. Characters to emulate and foils to avoid. It helps me maintain the mindset that truth in myth is less important than moral lessons. We can still use these stories from ancient oral traditions to the new testament, to the flying spaghetti monster as our new gods. As long as they symbolize something important to you then you can and should use them in your practice.
"Grimoire for the apprentice wizard" -Oberon Zell-Ravenheart
Oberon is a character, but important. I said earlier that secular occultism is affirmations with an aesthetic. Oberon is a wealth of aesthetic and easily approachable rituals with which you should try (other than the invisibility spell. I'm pretty sure he says you can use that to be naked in public and I don't recommend that.)

Interesting... I had to look up SRA--finding the Socialist Rifle Association.

I also like #PinkPistols and Jews for the Preservation of Firearm Ownership (#JPFO).

Reading Sam Harris's "Waking Up" gives the same vibes as when I read "the Satanic Bible" by Anton Levay.
It has interesting ideas and actionable advice to improve my spiritual life through meditation and contemplation, but it also refuses to present that in an isolated way because both books are positioned against something.
The Satanic bible isn't just self help its self help WHILE ALSO hating Christians.
Waking Up isn't just a book on consciousness and meditation its that WHILE ALSO being mean about the traditions that spawned the ideas.
Its the exact hateful tone that pushed me far outside of the Nu-Atheist movement a life time ago and its still gross.

New #blog post day!
I think I've hashed out some thoughts on gods and demi gods that an atheist could use in a spiritual practice.
One day I hope to get these ideas less disjointed in into a properly coherent corpus, but for now enjoy an idea and please tell me your thoughts!

I think the Gnostic Christian god is the most likely one to exist because, based on the old testament alone, god is at worst a childish wrathful god constantly vying for our attention.
But to the early gnostics, god is either evil and relishes in our suffering or it is indifferent to us and made us on a whim.
I like that last god because it plays into my idea of a "cosmic probability" god. A god who isn't invested in our success and is more or less rolling the dice indifferently like a dungeon master who doesn't hide its rolls.
But like any dungeon master, if you get it's attention, it might start changing the odds a little.

I'm working on my own understanding of what is and isn't acceptable within #Esoteric #Occult and #Witchcraft spaces and I'm writing here about White people using "Closed off" practices and my own understanding of them.
I am basically white. For practical purposes, keep that in mind. The following is the parts of my article here that I'm uncomfortable with and want some feed back on if you're willing.
I think I have a good stance that's inclusive but nuanced, but I don't generally engage in the religious practices of the Global south, Native Americans, or the Far East. So, anyone smarter than me would be appreciated here.
