Interesting. I’ve studied magick off and on for years.

I certainly think there are those who are delusional and want to live in a fantasy, and I’m sure engaging with the occult can fuck with that kind of person’s head.

But most of the occultists I’ve met have been fairly level headed individuals, who recognize that magick is basically just a collection of practices to influence your own subconscious. They’ve generally been the most down to Earth and well-adjusted people I know.

Depends on the scene I guess.
