Be cool to each other. We'll welcome most occult themes, it's okay if you stray from witchcraft a bit.

I want to hear OPs answer too, but to chime in: what are most religions/belief systems if not mental disciplines to help people navigate life?
This thing seems to always be involved in this kind of stuff. Noted, of course, that many do that in uncool ways/with uncool impacts (reinforcing hierarchies that justify concentration of power, legitimizing harm to others, glorifying ignorance, etc.)
I have gone down the path of meditation an uncommon distance. Finding people to talk to about it is basically impossible. There is some common ground with consensual reality tho. And I try to do conversations there sometimes. It is generally frustrating. I should stop.
