Do what thou wilt shall be the whole of the Law.
Hello, my name is Futuri, on this site. I'm in America and I'm 16. Been a Thelemite since 14 when I came upon the Book of the Law and the Golden Dawn. That introduction threw me into Thelema, I suppose.
I'm an amateur poet and a professional student.
And my greatest fascination is with the possibility of a revival of the Abbey of Thelema.
I'm not sure what else to say, so shoot questions, and we'll see how that goes.
Love is the law, love under will.

| Well, "howdy" from Texas. Nice to see a reasonably intelligent young person who can construct a proper sentence without syntax or spelling errors. |

Welcome to the site, Futuri.
Wish there'd been something like this when I was 16. Mind you, when I was 16, the internet was naught but a mad gleam in some scientist's eye.
Best wishes,
Michael. |

| When I was 16 I used to deny a secret fascination with the ZX 64. |

Isn't that why there are grammar rules? |

A mad gleam you say? Yes, I suppose it was though I wasn't alive at the time to see that. Mad, but brilliant. |

| Y'know, at age 49, I can't imagine what it would have been like to have access to a resource like this when I was 16. I had two Crowley books (Book of Thoth and Magick In Theory and Practice) and handfull of "Circus", "Crawdaddy" and "Rolling Stone" magazines with articles about Jimmy Page owning Crowley's house on Loch Ness. Ozzy was still with Sabbath in those days... |

| Hi MFuturi, I was at 16 working as a Brewery Tech so quaffing large amounts of beer! In spare time indulging in first world war pics, some quite explicit for their time. Bodies split apart here and there. At seventeen studied Eliphas levi and The Book of Sacred magic ( Melin the Mage). Not at all interested in women until 23! Also between 16 and 23 read much on Demonology/Atlanteans/UFOs/Egypt/Numerology and Kabbalah. I am blessed with photographic memory when it comes to the occult, and so can de-cypher secret codes in some grimoire passages. Anyway "Do what thou Will" young man, let No person dissuade you from your present path! Naasbite |

Sometimes, less is more. And, I have found - aside from an active imagination - that those books offer more than enough clues to get one started. (That would be the Symonds and Grant RKP publication.) |
