It makes me think of the old prophets who had visions of future evens and the end of days. They could only rationalize what they claim to have seen in ways that were palatable and understandable to them.
Metal birds, metal bugs, celestial towers higher than they imagine possible, remedy’s and cures for devastating illness.
It all would be very confusing. Just as confusing as if we could peek into visions of our own future.
Magic is the thing between all things, it bends the composites of reality around twirls of mystery and manipulations of context. It can be a science, it can be a prayer, it can be nothing at all. In this essence I view the concept more real than anything else. It’s powers are as pretend as any other way of thinking or ideology. Everything is pretend,
I believe in magic too @Zoe! Uh oh it’s magic! I am fascinated by magic. I am spooked by magic. I love songs about magic, but I don’t want to derail the thread to all the fabulous songs about magic. lol There are a lot of great songs about magic though.
“magic” does exist but i dont think its what most people think it is. A lot of time the people who involve themselves in it destroy themselves by establishing connections with demons who they are deluded into thinking they have power over, when in reality they are being made the play thing of demons. I think thats where the sterotype of the miserable, gloomy cackling miser of a witch comes from. Involving ones self in such things will only a harm a person mentally and spiritually, and potentially physically.
When I was younger I spent many hours practicing routines had over $3,000 worth of magic tricks from California I had performed in places like Century 2 YMCA Towne East Mall Etc as a young magician I went by the name of kartini because I traveled some the object was to disillusion your host into thinking he was watching something fabulous or mysterious and hopes to raise a belief in them spiritually after many years of doing this I found myself misguided and that will be in the Black Arts after losing some friends I tried to commit suicide ended up in a unit at the age of 13 magic my friend is different to be Majestic in movement and quick in judgment thank you for your time
The entire Universe strikes me as being quite Magical. So many things had to line up, in just the right amount in just the proper order, for us to even exist.
I have also had beautiful Spiritual experiences, which were quite Magical. Not what a magician might do at birthday parties. In this case, Magical simply means awe-inspiring or feeling a sense of Wonder and Humility
Magic in another sense is the power of intention. Whatever you put your energy in, grows stronger and exert either positive or negative influence
Yea I don’t know about magical thinking. I sometimes get tempted to believe in it but I’m not sure. I try not to place much importance on that idea since I get obsessive, looking for meaningful coincidences, which can be very tiring.
I just meant that I believe in heaven basically, I think that’s magic cos science doesn’t believe in that, I think.
