First of all, Welcome!
A lot of us came from christian pasts, and your fears are understandable. But maybe that helps you see even clearer the true purpose of the enemy. They use fear to keep the populace under control. You honestly have nothing to fear. There is no 'screwing it up' if you have the right intent.
Should you get with someone who has done these things before? No. I recomend you take some time to just read through the entirety of the JoyOfSatan.Org website, and learn as much as you can. If you need help understanding anything in there, you have these groups and all the people hear to help you out!
You can read about what Power Meditations are, and how to do them in the 'Meditations' section of the Joy of Satan.
Yes, the Gods can help us all throughout life, and are willing to help those who are willing to learn. However, in Spiritual Satanism, we encourage self reliance. To get one of the Gods to do everything for you is being lazy, and becoming dependant. The Gods will help us out when we are new, but as we progress and advance, we learn to do things on our own, for our selves. We learn to manifest our desires on our own, without outside assistance. This is something to strive for. Having said that, don't think that asking for help or assistance from the Gods or from us here in the groups is wrong. You are more than welcome to, this is of course all a leaning proccess.
You most likely wont offend the Gods on your attempts to summon them. If you have read through the JoyOfSatan, read about Summoning and understand how it works, then you will be fine. Follow what is on the site. This is found in the 'Demons' section, as well as much more about our True Gods. Note, when I say "Gods" I am referring to the Demons.
Yes they can teach us so so much, as long as we are willing and serious about learning. They have endless amounts of knowladge on an endless amount of subjects. They also have great personalities, and when one advances and becomes open enough to commune with the Gods, they are great to simply talk to.
You don't have to talk to any body. I wouldn't recomend telling anyone that you are a Satanist. As this can have negative repercussions, you never know how people will react to hearing that, no matter how well you think you know them. It is best kept to yourself for your own well-being. You have people here in the e-groups that you can talk to with about your experiances in Satanism, and help with questions or advice, all you need to do is ask.
Rituals are important, they are a great way to get closer to Satan and they are full of respect. Regular rituals are a great benefit to your life. Additionally, we do not advance and become stronger spiritually via Rituals, this is achieved through consistant Power Meditation and research. The best place to start your research is the JoS, learn it back to front.
Lastly, and quite an important point. NEVER give out your personal information to anyone you don't know. This includes you actual name, phone number, and private email adress. There are so many people on the internet that are just waiting to take this information and abuse your trust. Some can be sexual predators, others predators of different kinds, looking to drive you away from Satan and the True Gods, and plant misinformation in your mind. This is another important reason for developing self reliance. You are far less likely to be deceived by false people who claim to be Satanists, then fill your mind with misinformation and dumb you down to a lower level that cannot be considered a Satanist.
Feel free to ask any more questions you might have here, and again, welcome!
Hail Satan! Praise the True Gods of Old!

How do I do power meditations? And could a demon or demons I have built good relationships with help me threw college and past that and guide me to my desired destination? What happens if I offend a demon on my first attempt at a summon? Could they show me things and teach me things beyond my imaginations? Idk who I can talk to about this because I live in a town were theres no joke almost a church on every corner and they look down on anything else but theyr own beliefs, im willing to do these rituals to grow spiritualy and intellecually and to help humanity get to were our father satan intended us to be, please maybe some of you can help me, I'd even be willing to give my number to one or two who are experienced with this I just want to start enjoying stanism and I want to start learning from Satan's demons, one more question, since im very new to this and never thought of satan and his demons as being good does this mean they kinda past me by threw out life or have they always been there for me trying to show me the truth and the light?, I have sooo many more questions that I wont be able to ask on here due to the length this page would turn out to be, anything would help thank you for any answers or advice...HAIL SATAN!!!
