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.
