“You Probably Don’t Want To Use This As A Testimonial But… “
As one cycle of the Black School winds down, another gets rolling. I received the following email this morning from Bill Mac, a student just finishing the course.
“I first want to thank you for not only your efforts starting and maintaining the Black School, but your entire body of work. Unfortunately, I don’t think this is a testimonial you can use for promotion of the Black School. I wanted to give you feedback, nonetheless.
Almost immediately with daily practice of lesson one, I noticed change in my attitude as well as how others approached me. I felt more unified and focused. Once I started incorporating the practices in lesson three, things got real. It felt like “… so that I may perceive you as you are, and not as I am” was granted in every aspect of my life. And it hurt. For a long time. It may have just been external circumstances and a strong assumption on my part that it was all stemming from the work, but it really felt like a slow, grinding revealing.
I’ve passed through that experience to a place a little more stable and digestible. I feel that this whole experience has brought me to a place valuing a new level of discipline and devotion, not only in a “spiritual”sense, but to my body, home, wife, work, school, music. Life is more intense but I can whole-heartedly say that it’s better.
So as I said, not really broadly marketable to say “come get your world fucked!” but I cannot thank you enough for providing guidance and insight on this path. I will never forget, in a moment of holy water frustration in the lesson four q&a, you yelling “IT’S A (FUCKING) QUEST!” THAT is how I will move forward with my magic and my experiences with St. Cyprian. ”
Won’t use it as a testimonail? Of course I will! Now, in general I am not a big fan of magic that promises to kick your ass or shake up your world. What I AM a big fan of is magic that furthers your goals. If you are happy with your life and the way it’s running, the Black School can provide the Sorcery that will keep it stable and moving forward on whatever it is you are working on next. If you are unhappy with your life, then yeah, it needs to be shaken up! I am happy as hell to broadcast that my work helped someone do that.
