I recently have acquired great interest in esotericism and Hermetic concepts and I figured I should find somewhere I could get questions answered. I attempted to learn about Wicca several years ago but found the more concrete religious aspects of it weren't for me. I do appreciate the self-development and understanding that the philosophical and technical parts of such a lifestyle, though.
Iām still starting out and not sure what tradition I want to follow, if any. I do know that a good deal of my interests involve connection with natural phenomenon and the applications of drawing and writing in terms of affecting the world around me. Runes and seals are something I would like to look into. I am also curious about potential relationships between mysticism and more martial traditions like chivalry as I am a historian and practitioner of historical European martial arts.
