    Kurt,
    Yes I am having the similar dilemna and what to say to my family that live
    with me and friends and if I should have another partner. I have one close
    friend that knows I am studying Hermetics and Franz Bardon inparticlular and
    seh is supportive but not interested in her own pursuits. She is studying
    Cranial Sacral methods and when she talks about those studies to me I have
    not got any clue of what she refers. For this reason I think for now all I
    say is I am 'meditating' or that I 'study' Hermetics. I am concerned for
    when I am beginning to practice further along and am not quiet in my
    practices though.
