“I’d like to know specifically what these “similar practices and rituals” are.”

I’d be glad to - but it may take me a bit if I am to be thorough.

By all means, please do it. I assume it will take you a while because you'll have to scour the Internet looking for the real-life "practices and rituals” of the occult that appear in HP (since you could have already posted any actual knowledge you have of real occult practices and rituals). Just make sure you post the URLs of the websites where you (once again) block copy your posts from.
