Vitriol · 2026-09-06T01:46:48Z

Welcome to The Occult Corner.If you're new here, this is the place to introduce yourself.You do not need to use your real name or reveal personal information. Pseudonyms, magical names, and forum names are perfectly welcome.Tell us as much or as little as you are comfortable sharing. You might mention:• What brought you to The Occult Corner• Your areas of occult interest• Traditions, systems, or practices you study or work with• Books, grimoires, divination systems, spirits, or subjects that interest you• Whether you are completely new to occult practice or have been practicing for yearsThere is no required level of experience.Beginners are welcome. Experienced practitioners are welcome. The genuinely curious are welcome.The purpose of an introduction is simply to help turn a username into a member of the community.Please remember that all introductions remain subject to the Community Rules, and avoid posting personal information you would not want publicly available on the internet.I'll begin.I'm Vitriol, founder of The Occult Corner.My own practice is primarily rooted in ceremonial magick, grimoires, spirit work, divination, and the Left-Hand Path. Much of my work has involved the Keys of Solomon, the Grand Grimoire, evocation, petitions, protection, healing-oriented workings, and tarot.I originally became involved with the community that preceded the present Occult Corner many years ago. TOC 2.0 is the continuation and rebuilding of that community: preserving what was valuable while creating something capable of growing into its own institution.I look forward to seeing both familiar names and new ones here.Welcome to The Occult Corner.— Vitriol

"Here I am, an old man in a dry month,

Being read to by a boy, waiting for rain."

Gerontion T.S. Eliot

Been a Magician for more than half a century, although not much I could do at age ten or eleven. I was an armchair Magician for too many years. In late 1980s, joined the oldest functioning RHP Magickal Lodge in the southern hemisphere and was forced (by other members) to get into Chaos Magic(k). I never looked back!

Twenty-nine years ago took a telephone call one nondescript Friday afternoon, which irrevocably altered my life. About twenty-five years ago (after I'd lost everything) I realised that I was inadvertently involved in Aeonic Magick - which by the way, is fucked.

I have made many mistakes, but I remain Magickly driven and committed. I'd like to help other practitioners avoid my mistakes. I'm lazy and therefore use inexpensive shortcuts. I don't post techniques I've not used. I also try not to post about my successes, because you weren't there and I could be lying.

My most important, foundational teaching remains: If your Magick isn't fun, you're not doing it right!

The only reason I'm here to help is because there are so many of them, and so few of Us.

Al.
