About Me:

I consider myself an Alternative Spiritualist. I have been practicing some form of Alternative Spirituality since my mid 20's. I am interested in Ancient Religions from Mesopotamia, particularily those f Babylonian and Sumerian types. I am also interested in The Golden Dawn in which I have been a practicing member with the degree of Zelator going for Theoricus Grade. I am also interested in Native American Indian Spirituality and The Northern Shamanistic Practices of Seith.

I have always had interests in the Occult, which to me means the Hidden Teachings, which at times have been persecuted by more mainstream Religions. I find the Art of Magick to be centered in the Will of Man and how he connects to his Higher Self, or His Inner Self.

I love to read Philosophy, and Archaeology. I am also interested in Egyptian Religion and Ancient Cultures. I have continued in my education to include other courses of practical worth, mainly dealing with Office Supervision and Management. In my youth I served over 4 years in the United States Military, and have also backpacked over about 1/3 of the United States and parts of the Yukon Territory, ALaska, and Mexico in my search for the meaning of Life.

I can't say I have reached a point of enlightenment yet, but one thing I do know from Life, is that, The meaning of a persons Life is found within the Person, Nature teaches us to observe, and in observing ourselves we usually find the answers needed to understand Life.

New Moon Arising

Greetings All,

I have been studying quite a bit lately concerning the Ceremonial and Ritualistc Religious aspects of the Sumerian/Babylonian times of Power. From what I have discovered according to some Scholars is that the Cuneiform Texts seem to verify that the New Moon, or "Dark Moon" was one of the most powerful times to experience Ritual.

I have just come back up from our Temple in our Basement of our Home after doing a Preparation Cermeony for the New Moon. A kind of calling forth in rea… Continue

At 11:38am on November 14, 2009, Brian Gibbons said…: BB Joseph,I have always believed that magic was neutral.That it is the motive behind it that gives it direction.I to believe that there are many branches on the same tree of life.And that all are important for the survival of the tree.I have never studied the roots much,but I am starting to see how it all fits together.Thanks for your perspective about the left hand path.I have always been into the light and,didn't travel the dark side much.But now I am seeing how bias I was,even about that.I would welcome all views that you could share with me.I think balance,between the dark and light, is the most important thing.Thanks again for all your knowledge,that you are imparting to me.I have been hoping to find someone like you,that has some real experience, in the higher arts.I looks like the universe herd my plea.Thanks again.Your Friend Brian.

At 9:12am on November 13, 2009, Brian Gibbons said…: BB Helel,You got that right.Even in Pagan circles,its hard to find others that understand CM.I was in the chat room the other day,and was over run by critics.It was about the GD,which to me is the most positive path out there.They would freak out completely,were I to bring up,Thelema,or Satanism.One girl ran out of the room,because I was expressing my self about CM.I located one of the members,for him to tell her I was sorry,and that I had no intention of running anyone off.Sometimes I can be to defensive.It comes from living in an area,full of ignorance.I have always been very public,and completely out of the closet,about my Pagan beliefs.I have worked at the local Walmart,for 10 yrs now.Some of the associates there,use to be part of my coven,at one time.I guess I have become quote,THE WICKEDEST MAN IN WALMART.LOL.Oh well,as my wife tells me,we live to learn.Full of wisdom,that one.I sit at her feet,to learn to be human.Thanks again for ALL you do for me.BB My Friend. Brian.

At 8:53am on November 13, 2009, Brian Gibbons said…: BB Helel,Thanks for all your help.Yesterday I purchased some new books.Secrets of the GD,Book of the Law,and the Satanist Bible.My wife is so cool,and a supportive agnostic.When I showed the Satanist Bible.She said,now you can get a better view of what they believe.I have looked my whole life,to find someone like her.I'm very Blessed.But it would be awesome,if you could tell me about other paths of CM,that I am not aware of.Thanks again,BB Brian.

At 7:21pm on November 11, 2009, Brian Gibbons said…: Bye and Bye,What part of Illinois are you from.I was born in Chicago,on the south side,near Oaklawn.Where 79th street and Pulaski cross.All my relatives live in Western Spings and Lagrange.I left when I was 13,and moved to Fort Lauderdale,Florida.My parents decided to retire there.Thats who I ended up in Alabama,of all places,All kidding aside,I do love the south.I the one who stayed,that the joke is all about.LOL Bright Blessings Brian.

At 7:11pm on November 11, 2009, Brian Gibbons said…: Thank so much for the info that you have imparted to me.I am so glad to find a friend,that I can talk to about these things with.And the fact that you know the book,that I am studying out of,helps greatly.Most are not even aware of that book,let along can quote out of it.And I am not saying,it is sacred scripture or anything.But it has been a great help to me.As well as Isreal's books,The Tree Of Life,Middle Pillar,and The Garden,witch I am blessed to own also.As well as his Golden Dawn Book.Do you know of any other books,or paths,that could help me in my quest?I would value any remarks that you have about it.Like I said before,I am new to the ceremonial side of it.Thanks again for all your rapid reply's Brian.

At 1:48pm on November 11, 2009, Brian Gibbons said…: Actually Helel,I am doing about half of those everyday.But I know that there is always room for improvement.You explained what I was trying to say,alot better than I did,but the point was the same.I never understood that there were acts you could perform, to reach the core,until now.Which is why I am so exited.You know,when the student is ready,kind of thing.Could you tell me what other ceremonial paths,there are out there to explore,other then Thelema.And how does Thelema differ from GD?Thanks Brian.

At 12:24pm on November 10, 2009, Brian Gibbons said…: Hi Joseph,Thank you for your rapid reply,I would value,any and all info you could give me to prepare.Maybe you will understand what I am about to say.My desire,is to seriously continue the great work,to complete spiritual alchemy.To get in touch with my HGA,and to become more than human.I have become very aware of that part of me that is God,or Universe,or what ever word you want to use.I also understand now,that there are initiations,and ceremonies,that will help me reach that goal.So what ever help you can give,would be highly valued by me.I also understand the danger's of the HGA.Whitch is why I am proceeding very carefully.Thank's again in LVX Brian.
