I'm confused about something. Recently, I've been interested in Elementalism. All I know about it is that elementalists just work with the 4 elements, spirits and energies, no Gods. But I feel a deep connection to some Gods: Isis, Zeus and Ra, and so far I've considered myself a Kemetic-influenced (since I call Isis my mother-Godess, I'm obsessed with Egypt, and sometimes I use Egyptian spells) mage with a few Shamanic leanings (I use shamanic tecniques in healing).. (Yes, I know, it sounds so mixed up).. *sigh* lol. The thing is.. I'm a bloodwitch because I'm my great grandmother's sucessor, but I don't consider myself a witch really, even though I'm her successor and all that.
But anyways, let's get to the point. I was wondering.. are mages/magicians and elementalists basically the same thing? Since both work with magick and energies.. I haven't heard that any of these two worship Gods. Or maybe, I haven't researched enough?
Also, I've heard that a magician's path is called "Ceremonial Magick", is that true? If not, then what is the path called? For example.. a Wiccan's path is called Wicca, etc etc.. so what about mages?
And, what is the difference between an elementalist and a mage? Then.. if I'm not wrong, there are also different types of mages.. like light-based mages, fire-based, etc etc.. ?
I hope these questions didn't sound too dumb though.. lol. These are like the only things I've been confused about, the rest is clear though. :hahugh:
