Tenets of Magick

  • Magick is the act of willful transformation
  • Energy can be moved through conscious will
  • Energy travels the shortest and most direct path. Magick must, therefore, be the last act in a course of action to obtain a particular need. All physical efforts must precede it.
  • Energy comes in three forms: light (the source), life (the emminent power of the God), and love (the immanent power of the Goddess). The energy of life manifested is creativity. The energy of love manifested is healing and bonding. The energy of light manifested is time and space.
  • Energies are accessed through the higher levels of consciousness since these are closer to the original source.
  • Magick cannot work without belief
  • Magickal acts require the full committment of the self in all its forms: the mind - visualization, the heart - belief and acceptance (is this right? is this necessary?), the soul - connection with the spiritual, the body - through the physical objects of ritual
  • There are three phases of any magickal rite: preparation - asking the right questions, assembling materials, ritual - empty the space, purify the space, fill the space with magickal intent, ground, follow-through - maintian a connection to the intent (but not the outcome), re-energize if needed
  • Magick is unpredictable
  • Magick happens in its own time and space
  • Possible reasons for failure: wrong reasons, didn’t give it time, didn’t disconect from the result, too many obstacles, met with other energies, unable to access higher powers, didn’t believe, didn’t re-energize, may not be right for you at this time.

  • Cast spells only as the final effort to direct your will. first, do all that is within your your physical, mental, and emotional ability to attain your goal before your begin magick.
