Welcome to Abrahadabra Forums!

[m1thr0s]

If you are a new poster with us, we'd really appreciate you taking the time to introduce yourself and maybe tell us a little something about yourself and your interests etc...

I'm m1thr0s and abrahadabra.com is my website. I've been a lot of things over the years and worn a lot of hats. I've got over 30 years into the theory and practise of occult philosophy, magick and mysticism, alchemy and tantricism and more... I'm not as young as I used to be but a whole lot smarter I think. I've been an active poster on a number of other forums, so some of you already know me to one extent or another. This is the first time I have started a forum of my own so I am very excited about it and hope it all goes well.

I've created a Mission Statement (in Announcements) that hopefully explains what these forums are all about but it's a bit longer than I planned. The bottom line really is that you don't have to know anything about Abrahadabra to post here and you don't need to be a Hermetic Alchemist either. If I wanted to be that snooty I wouldn't be starting a public forum at all! I am interested in all kinds of people and ideas personally. I love diversity and would go so far as to say I actually crave the stuff.

I hope that these forums prove both useful and enjoyable for most. I am sure it is impossible to please everyone but I think that the vast majority will be very pleased to have found this little niché and want to come back often. Expect some changes as we grow and a LOT of improvements and additions of interest as well...

Have Fun. Try to keep it clean and respectful so we all get the most bang for our buck here...

You might just be surprized how much you know already Danisty. You're into the golden mean, right? Check out Wiki's breakdown on Pythagoras (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pythagoras) for a minute. Scroll down a bit until you get to the discussion of Theano, Pythagoras's wife, and this statement:
Her most important work is said to have been a treatise on the principle of the golden mean. Pythagoras plays a huge role in this immediate Abrahadabra thesis because some of the most amazing stuff we have to work with is to be found embedded in the geometry of the word itself...a word we happen to know was always approached in a uniquely geometrical sort of way...

Artists often know a lot more than they think they do, it's just that their way of assimilating knowledge may run to the aesthetic side of things even at risk to foregoing the more academic perspective if need be. We may not be all that enamored with academia anyway, yet still enamored with truth itself in whatever ways are most naturally accessible to us.

We'll see...the day is young and this project has only just begun. You may come to find you have a much better grasp of things than you thought you did...that's my guess on the matter at least.
