Community Profile

Ars Esoterica is a forum for advanced metaphysical, occult, religious, and esoteric studies. If you are tired of the 101 level of metaphysics study, and want to deepen your practice, this community will be of help in doing so.

Religious affiliation is not important here. All faiths are welcome- what we study here will deepen whatever you believe. Whether you are Pagan, Wiccan, Thelemic, Agnostic, or Judeo-Christian- or even Atheistic, there will be something of value here for you.

Ars Esoterica seeks to reveal the common kernels of metaphysics and religion, and will use the tools of science, history, philosophy, and other disciplines to unveil them. Ancient history, ancient mysteries, as well as modern discoveries will be utilized to enhance our studies. We'll sort the wheat from the chaff, and learn what the ancients knew.

This is version 1.0 of the 'about you' page. It will expand to include websites, books, and other items of interest as we build this community. Founding date is 11/7/2005. The moderator is Sunfell.
