Advice on how to begin.

[joserp98]

Hello

As of right now, I am completely new to all of Satanism. I have just read the "main" page on joyofsatan.com and am very interested in "joining". I would just like some help with where to begin, what to read, what to do first, then second, third etc.

Last year I did read some "occult" teachings about mentative currents, thought-force and such from William Walker Atkinson. The stuff fascinated me but I never pursued the study seriously. I abandoned it for more "practical" things like meditation and self-help and self-actualization knowledge. Anyway, I AM open to these kinds of things (the occult).

I deal with a ton of internal chaos daily, and it is starting to become overwhelming. I have been trying for a year to get over all of this, I have learned a lot of things and practices but none of them have helped much except meditation. Meditation has helped me become more clear on what my issues actually are.

I am agnostic/atheist but have often thought about how beneficial it would be to believe in a "god" to give me internal strength and power. I am hoping that satanism is what I'm looking for, especially since satanism seems to embrace and encourage science. But, be honest with me, is all of this stuff actually scientific? I do not mind if it is or isn't at this point, I'd just like to know.

Anyway, Is appreciate any and all advice on how to start. Thank you.

If you have not done so already, thoroughly read the Joy of Satan website.

Perform the Dedication Ritual when you feel ready. If you cannot find the right candle color, forget the "so mote it be" at the end, or make some other minor error, that will not derail your Dedication Ritual. Satan is extremely understanding, unlike the christian god who will throw you into a pit of fire for every little thing, and is not going to come after you for extremely trivial errors. As long as your blood is on the paper and you genuinely want to dedicate yourself to Satan, your Dedication Ritual was valid.   Dedication Ritual
http://www.angelfire.com/empire/serpent ... TANIC.html   The goal of Spiritual Satanism is to spiritually empower yourself and obtain powers that humans are supposed to have like healing and telepathy. The final goal is to complete the Magnum Opus and become a god. Consistent meditation is key to those goals. A good place to start with meditation is the 40 Day Self-Empowerment Program available in Satan's Library. PDF copies of the hatha and kundalini yoga routines from the 40 Day Self-Empowerment Program are in Satan's Library.

Especially, do not post any pictures of yourself. If people know you are a Satanist they will not hire you for a job, fire you if you have one, kick you out of the house if you are underage, or attack you outright. Posting a picture of yourself makes it especially easy for infiltrators to find you or harm you. Satanists are cursed by enemy occult organizations and a picture enables them to direct curses at you that will ruin your life.   You can post questions you may have to the Yahoo Groups or Joy of Satan forums. It is not safe to have private conversations with people. There are infiltrators here who would love to see a Satanist killed or brought to ruin. They will pretend to be friendly and then lie to you, give you bad information, try to get you to hurt yourself, try to convince you that Satan is angry at you or has abandoned you, or try to scare you away from Satan. The infiltrators may even try to get your personal information and harass you physically.
