What has anyone realistically benefites from in life from following

You'd be better to ask the general.

I personally got some small 'boosts' here and there in life, ie an unexpected opportunity or luck.
Also learning some things about myself and self control.

But the again I'm only a beginner.

I can understand psychedelic use or meditation for introspection but studying occult texts and things like magick seems absolutely pointless.

OP, your chart is stupid.

Polaris is not one of the brightest stars in the sky, in fact it is the 50th.

The 50th star out of how many stars?

>just about the brightest

OP's chart also says diabetics suffer from extreme weight loss... I dunno, every single diabetic I ever saw was fat. In fact LOSING weight is the first step to combating diabetes.

Now you're in retard spin-mode.

The ancients ALL knew where Polaris is due to the fact it appears to stay in one place, alone of all stars. This find one of the brightest stars ( when it's 50th ) idea is stupid. The chart is lame.

Took me about 2 years to get out of being an occultist. The one thing I like about it is that if esoteric symbols come my way I can defeat the energy that radiates and decode it to some degree.

Other than that, you could just wait for something and have faith in God for something to work out, rather than set up a process and cast a spell with a selfish motive.

"I need to be more attractive"

"I need to get back at so and so"

"I want money"

"I need a new job"

"I need to summon a demon from a black hole because I forgot how to handle the situation of my own reality and let myself out of control"

"I need protection"

"I want to manifest my desire"

You notice how these are things we want or whatever, we can just figure out how to obtain what we desire naturally.

What other reasons would you need to cast a spell without some selfish intent? Chances are if your faith and will is strong enough you can accomplish your goals no problem.

Yeah, it's a sense of purpose. That's real enough.

extreme weight loss is a symptom of untreated type 1 diabetes

you are thinking of type 2 diabetes

>>16960579

I stand corrected, though the chart is still really shaky science. I see type 1 only effects 5% of those with diabetes, but whatever, the tie off the pancreas factoid is pretty interesting... and it was type 2 I was thinking of.

never post a image more interesting your thread OP

as for being an occultist, it's as good a hobby as any
