Quote:Magick - The science and art of transformation of matter, spirit, and energy to orchestrated to bring about change in accordance with my will in ways that may not yet, or ever, be understood or explainable by scientific knowledge.This is one of the reasons I came to realize that, after prcticing magick for a decade I decided to dump it. I came to the conclusion that all I was doing was fooling myself with mystical thinking, equivocations, and soft fuzzy words that could come to mean anything...or really doesnt mean anything.
And if a word really means nothing, then it can be used to describe anything and everything.
Like the word "magick"
On the other hand, my book of shadows was quite beautiful. I put alot of my own artwork into it and I was quite proud of it. That is, until the cops took it from me and never gave it back. They were convinced that I had written a personal account of sacrificing humans in secret code inside of it, and they had code specialists trying to crack it....lol...in reality it was just a bunch of symbols I made up on the spot out of creativity and lots of hallucinogenics.
There are some things I still do from that time period in my life. Practicing lucid dreaming is one of them (what you would call "astral travelling") and power to will, in which you visualise what you want to help focus on attaining it. conjuring spirits are bullshit. Opening "gates" to spirit worlds is bullshit. conscrating the circle is bullshit....
...oh yeah, I still make my own honeymead. In fact I have 3 gallons of my best shit aged 3 years right now. 17% alcohol.
