I have read many forums and articles on the Cthulhu Cult...and I was wondering...how exactly might one join said Cult? Might there be specific ways one must go about this? I'm curious as to how I might do this, for I've wanted to join for quite a while now...

I'm open. What's your ideas?
How do you want to join it? What ways do you want to go about doing that.
The floor is yours, maxiex.

I'm relatively new here, in fact I just created the account. I gained interest in Cthulhu about 2 years ago but just deeply studied from about an year ago. I sometimes stop researching this matter, but I eventually studie it again because from month to month I have strange dreams about dark essences/beings that remind me of this matter, at the begining I thought it was kinda normal due to the fact that I always dream about apocaliptic/pos-apocaliptic things, but with time and reading liber a:o and cult of cthulhu I notice the similarity in my dreams. I came to the conclusion that I need awnsers from some people with more experience then me and it's time to embrace this... lets say, fact. If you guys whould help me developing in this matter I whould apreciate, if not I think I will just try on my own.

Sorry, sorry, I guess you're right. At this point I was already kinda mad for not having awnsers, and what I just did was kinda idiotic, because for vague questions there are given vague awnsers. Anyways, 1º I am not american, althought I like mcdonalds, but I still wanted to worship, I may not be near you guys, but still I wanted to learn how can I do it on my own. (ps I am from portugal) 2º 1 of my dreams I wrote it down, i kinda understude the meaning of it and also wrote it -the meanings- while I was recording the dream, but still you guys have more experience then me in these matters has I previously refered, so I guess if you guys dont mind I whould like to share it sometime, to see if I got it right not missed a few details. 3º Is it possible to join the Cult of Cthulhu, when you're not from US, and still be an active menber and recive the news etc? I whould not mind to try to spread lets say the good news, the work, if I could recive some kind of help at the beging. Well thanks for your time, waiting for responce so I can ask more things. (that awkard moment when someone bitch slaps you over the computer, nice XD) (sorry if I misspelled one or 2 words has I told you before I am portuguese)

for vague questions there are given vague awnsers. Well said. Kudos. McDonald's is French. Not really, I'm just kidding. The important thing is that not all of us are Americans. Most of us are, but certainly not all. I have no idea what you're talking about. Yes, please. Start a new thread and tell us all about it. Really. At the moment it's not possible to join the Cult whatsoever. We're more a group where anyone who's into Lovecraft, Chaos Magick, Fourth Way, Lucid Dreaming and/or Satanism can compare notes. In other words, we're a discussion group. There was once more than that to the Cult, and maybe one day there will be again, but that's where the Cult is now. Being an active on the forum is as close as you can get to being an active member. What we really need is people who ask questions. So, if any question that comes to mind about the Cult or our common interests (Lovecraft, Chaos Magick...) just ask it in a new thread. We don't recruit or 'spread the good news'. We prefer that potential participants are selectively invited by regular participants or find us on their own. Yes, please ask many more things. And you take a cyber-bitchslap well. Impressive. We don't have spelling or grammar police here. If we did, we'd shoot them.

1º of all, aint this supposed to worship Cthulhu? Well, you can if you want. It's certainly possible but you'd have to come up with your own practice and decide what that means to you, personally. That would be a chaos magick thing. One of the main principles of chaos magick is that belief is a tool -- instead of accepting the common beliefs handed to yous "just 'cause", a chaos magician believes what's useful for him to believe. From that perspective, it really doesn't matter what you choose to believe -- whether it relates to Chthulhu or the Power Puff Girls -- the only thing that matters is believing it helps you accomplish whatever it is you set out to accomplish. Besides, worshipping Cthulhu as he/she/it was originally portrayed by H.P. Lovecraft would be kinda pointless wouldn't it? It's not like he/she/it would give a flying fuck beyond his/hers/its incomprehensible motives. I have no idea. If you have a reason to and really want to, make it up as you go along. Read books on chaos magick -- experiment --- and get jiggy with it and shiiiiit. (Or similar. Or not.) Click on "Home" located at the top-right of the screen. Click on any of the red links, like "Introductions, protocols, complaints, and announcements" On the page the link leads to, there will be "Create Thread" in the upper left part of the page. Click on it. You know what to do from there.

ok 1º how and where can I find knowledge about caotic magick Google chaos magick. The Cult needs it's own book on chaos magic that we can simply give to noobs, but we currently don't have one. I'll see if I can find you some books you can download online, and I'll post them later. Yes. Belief is a tool. You wouldn't be asking permission, but the formless black essence is involved if you are using belief as a tool. Here's some info: The extremely simplified version: the formless black essence is yourself. The slight more detailed definition: The formless black essence (or the void) is that which exists or underlies all that is -- and that's you. If the image on a television screen were the contents of our experience of "ourselves" and the world we live in, then the screen itself would be the formless black essence. The screen both contains and creates the image you see as you watch your favorite television show. And like the screen of a TV, we normally don't notice the formless black essence because the contents of our experience of reality (the image on the screen) is not only in the way, but fools us into believing that the 'image' is all there is. But it's not. There's also the awareness (the screen itself) .which is aware of and creates the contents of our experience, and this exists "beyond our perception" because it's what our experience of reality is projected onto. (I have to go, will finish tommorow)

Welcome raymundmorganus,
I'm French and you don't need at all to be American, you can join the Cult of Cthulhu and we will welcome you. Just prove your interest by posting regularly for some times. Yes study Magic, 4th way (what do you know about this ?), you will find a lot of good stuff on this forum, so explore it !
The great Work has just begun !!

The only things that I know about the 4th way and magic are the ones that I read in the books of Cthulhu cult and liber ao, but it was a long time ago, so I think I whould like to ask this, in sumarize/resume, short text, what is the 4th way and magic and what is it all about, imagine that you're explaining it to a dumb person that way I think you guys will use simple terms and go straight throw the important points

I'm afraid it's a bit longer... In a word, though, ordinary humans are nothing more than machines, mastering nothing, neither thoughts nor emotions, to say nothing of their life. Trough hard work it is possible to Awake, gaining consciousness... as well as a lot of capabilities... which relate to Magic, too.
I strongly recommend you 1) the book "in search of the miraculous" by Ouspensky. 2) to practice the exercises described in Cthulhu Cult & liber A:O.

oh ok thanks very much, if I have more questions I will ask. but 1 more thing, I will presume that you guys pratice magic frequently to achive what you want, and if that's the case can you rate how frequently your "type" of magic works on a scale from 1 to 10? (1-never works // 10-always works has we want to) I also remenber that in Cthulhu Cult (the book) there was a meontion of ranks -Messager of the outer angels, herald of the old ones, wizard of terrible darkness, priest of R'lyeh (yours) and high priest (if I got 1 out of order feel free to correct me because I just wrote them from memory)- and the lowest of them all was Messager of the outer angels, well, the question is how do 1 is worthy of reciving such a title? (simply by joining? and if yes, how does one oficially join, because I notice that Shawnhartnell didnt like the word recruit XD)

The tittle is not "Messager of the outer angels" but Messenger of the outer angles !
Anyone can be a messenger, you don't even have to ask us, that's your choice and decision, so you already are a messenger !. Officially joining means being Herald, and you must be approved by a Priest.
I don't practice Magick often because I have all what I want. Yep. I'm not billionaire and I don't have a harem of obedient girls, but I don't want it (Although I can fantasize ). To get all what you want, I suggest you to focus on Awakening (once you will know what it means) and you will see that everything around you turns right.
Anyway my Magick always worked, to date. Sometimes poorly, wrongly, sometimes awesomely and accurately, but "something" always happens. Be careful with it, the biggest problem is that it works. I warn you to not use it against someone until you master it, because it could fall back on your beloved one.
Awake !!

ok, well the thing he is, I want to achive imortality, that's my main goal, then lots of power, but with one I can achive the other so... anyway, I guess that with some time and studying magic I coul achive that, or something similiar, so if I wanted to get started on magic what should i also read? (by the way "in search for miraculous" is really interesting-at least so far- otherwise I whould say for you to recomend another one XD) And I found this: Attachments:
