Magick has never been easy for me. It has saved my life and taught me many things but it's not easy. It never gave me a special power to let me bypass reality. It never made me skinny, or beautiful, or even happy. But it's fun. It's a practice. Like Yoga or martial arts. I love the way it looks and feels. I love to play with my reality and my beliefs like an art project. But magical practice has never fixed me. It gave me the courage to look at myself as I am and to love her. It got me through unimaginably hard times. I wish I could say that I found a way to completely heal yourself. To ensure the good are rewarded and the evil are punished. In my experience magick is a tool for survival. Our most ancient ancestors did magick to help them survive. We see that in cave paintings and fetish dolls from prehistoric times. That said, I invite you all to ask: What do you want? It's a deceptively easy question. But persist in asking it and you will come face to face with the essence of yourself. In this thread I invite you to share: What do you want?
