- Since the degree of occult knowledge among this group varies greatly I proposed
- that they all try something easy; one of the pentagramme rituals for example.
-
- Of course, Thyagi does this every week to a certain extent on whatever MUD it
- is that SHe uses.

- ...While I do not know what exactly goes on in these MUD
- forays, I do realize the power of the virtual world over the imagination &
- imagine that such workings as take place there are quite effective.

-
- No, we don't. Or at least we haven't.
-
- Yes, we've met, but the attrition rates have been horrendous (Peggy and I
- are the only consistent membership) and we're agreed that the weekly
- meetings are 'a bust' (as Peggy so eloquently put it).
-
- We've decided to do straight all out rituals and damn the consequences.
- No meetings or 'get-to-know-each-other sessions' or conferences to
- assess our 'compatability'. Too many people don't take the experiment
- seriously enough to maintain a social connection via computer.
-
- As I see it we are working against a NUMBER of influences, most important
- of which is that there is damned little actual experience with ritual
- (solitary OR group) to contribute to the 'foray'.
-
- We will be doing ritual on the MUD (it seems a reliable place and I'm
- set up there now) and if you want to participate you'll have to go
- through Peggy or myself to find out the particulars and how you might
- be involved. I'm sure Peggy would rather you contact me, so make
- your choice wisely. ;>
-
- No guarantees. No knowns. We is stone-blind and home free.
