    Very thorough and well-articulated, as usual. Bravo! Egypt continues to reveal its complex mysteries more and more. There is so much under the Sphynx yet to be explored and deciphered and even mysteries remaining above ground on the Giza plain. The pyramids are definitely not just tombs. Fascinating stuff.

    Not sure if this counts as a mystery school, but i grew up LDS (Latter day saint, also known as Mormon), and we have many traditions that even i have never seen nor heard, because they are considered Sacred, and to be kept behind closed doors until you have progressed enough and gone through certain rituals to be considered "ready". Since it is so Hush-Hush, i would argue that it is one, especially since we have our own form of Magick that we call "Priesthood Power" that is basically used to give blessings, speak with the divine, and generally work things for others. It is considered a power that is tto be strictly used to help others, as a charity, or in certain church rituals to bless things. But yeah, wicca reminds me of it a lot, and I'd consider the beliefs very similar, outside of a sparce few things.

    I've been through the LDS temple several times. My understanding is that many of the rituals and practices are similar if not identical to Masonic ceremonies. People are suspicious of what they do not understand. They feel "put out" by the secrecy. But let me tell you, you must be committed lest the practices be cheapened and thereby lessened in value. Even the Christian scriptures talk about casting pearls to the swine, which simply means giving that which is precious to a recipient who will not appreciate it, much less understand the value.

    Hello mannun. Great video and topic. I wanted to throw out a talking point I noticed you have not spoken about in detail in previous videos. Gender roles within traditional witchcraft. Is there truly a balance between priest and priestess or is gardnerian matriarchal. Not to go into too much detail but I was once initiated into gardnerian over ten years ago( never got farther than first degree even after 4 years). One of the conflicting issues I had was noticing that the authority of the high priestesses always outweighed that of the high priest. I remember one evening when my high priestess had a fresh batch of dedicants, male and female, that she said “ we as gardnerians believe in the balance of both genders”. At a later time in private, I was having a discourse with my HPS about certain topics and she then said “You have to understand, this is ultimately a WOMENS circle”.I have even questioned another coven mate that came on board later how he feels about the “balance”. To which he responded “it’s not balanced, it’s a 60/40 split” Unfortunately I cannot go into details. I have left that path and now practice happily solitary. ( also unfortunately everyone of the dedicants saw fit to leave) I am a gay male and my interest in the sacred feminine is limited. I personally seek to understand my relation to the sacred masculine more, but that’s my own journey. I feel this is worth discussing, not to polarize or antagonize one gender over another. But this was a major issue for me in my time in gardnerian. And I want there to be clarity on this matter so that any prospecting male dedicants who wish to join a “traditional” coven know exactly what they are stepping into. All are welcome, however there are rules in place that make gardnerian feel subversively feminist. At least from my own experience. Cheers

    Hi Thomas, I've watched a good video on covens by a utuber called Hearthwitch. She thinks it's a red flag if a coven is charging exorbitant fees. The most u should have to pay is for any tools/items used in a working and maybe the hire of a room, if no private space is available. Hope that helps ❤

    Complains about Elitism and snobbery. Yeah, .. well, .. I have no patience to argue with people over the basics of any occult training let alone advance teachings. Also people just don't like being told that just to learn the basics in anything takes about 1 to 3years to start with. Something about the fast-food culture and instant downloads and YT videos giving people an hour video where some act like they know let alone understand everything in a 5hour book read. From what I found over the years coming from people who think they know a thing or two about the occult, they always mis phrase the understanding of " Do as you Wilt." Like some news media sound bite. Needless to say, after ten years all come of sounding pretentious. 2.) I won't even try to explain to you in 3minutes on what you think you know or want to know, when said subject matter takes 3hours for the induction. Following with four months' worth of personal studying. 3.) Nice intro video which can be broke down into five others one-hour long videos. Nice few videos to look up is " Mother of Alchemy," very interesting woman in Egypt during the later phase of the Roman empire. They were just figuring out basic acids you learn in high school chemistry class used for ceramic glazes.

So, claiming that they are is making it worse!!! The goddess put them in the wrong body for a reason. The other problem is men's also claiming to be trans when they are not at all and using the law against us women and obviously real trans. I know that real trans is not a treat (in majority) but I fear that they may prolong their curse for their next rebirth. Why our goddess put them in the wrong body which cause them suffering? That why I think it a curse.
