I got the magic. It's that feeling you get when everything seems to align perfectly. When you are in the zone and everything just flows effortlessly. It's a sense of confidence and power, as if you can accomplish anything. The magic is not something that can be explained or understood completely. It's a mysterious force that comes and goes as it pleases.

Holy art Thou, whom nature hath not formed;

I performed the Headless ritual daily for several months, which resulted in some amazing highs, but interspersed with serious lows and strokes of ill luck; this rite is best described as a force that whirls the various puzzle-pieces of your life into the air. In general, magic has been understood as the attempt to influence a course of events through intentional actions beyond direct physical cause, typically of a ritual nature, performed by gods, skilled practitioners, and laity alike.

It's a mysterious force that comes and goes as it pleases. You can't summon it or control it. It simply appears when the conditions are right.

Techniques of Graeco-Egyptian Magic

This book uses academic tools to uncover the techniques which were actually used by Graeco-Egyptian magicians. This book will really strengthen your understanding of magic and its roots. After reading it magic will no longer be something to theorise about, but a real practice, a real interaction with divinities, daimones, spirits and even the dead, using evocation, invocation, skrying, dream techniques, talismans, amulets, defixiones, sacrifice and spirit offerings, ensouling magical statues and consecrating rings. It also explains the necessary protection for the magician, the circle and phylacteries. Magical objectives include love (by attraction, compulsion, insomnia and love's leash'), health, invisibility, foreknowledge and memory. There are detailed sections on bowl and lamp skrying, the sending of dreams, encountering a god, and the Mystery rites for fellowship with the gods. First steps include the invocation of the paredros, the daimon assistant and the correct purity and fasting procedures. Encounter Thesallos of Tralles who persuaded an Egyptian priest to manifest a god for him, and the techniques that his Egyptian priest used to do this. Egypt was at the heart of magic, and the Graeco-Egyptian papyri are the clearest and most extensive documentation of some of its earliest methods. These papyri were the handbooks of practicing magicians who lived during the first five centuries of this era. But attempting to read the Graeco-Egyptian magical papyri in Hans Dieter Betz's English translation "The Greek Magical Papyri in Translation" is a daunting task, as they seem to be in no particular order (except for papyrus number). Furthermore the papyri are a mixture of many different techniques, with minor snippets mixed in with serious and long invocations, many without the basic instructions needed to perform these rites. Stephen Skinner discovered that in the original Greek, then they have a perfectly logical structure, as the scribes have in most cases used a headword to indicate what kind of rite was involved. This headword has however mostly been lost in translation. What Stephen Skinner has done here is to separate and tabulate each of the 40+ techniques used by Graeco-Egyptian magicians, throwing an enormous amount of light on these very practical texts. In many cases the translator has taken the easy way out and just used words like 'spell' or 'charm' to translate dozens of different technical words which are necessary for understanding exactly what is going on. Skinner has rectified this by extracting each of these specialist Greek terms for different magical procedures and, showing what they really mean, and has divided up the papyri into its constituent methods, so that the reader is directed to the specific passages relevant to his interest. The result is more than a guide to the papyri, it is a complete survey and explanation of the functioning of the types of Graeco-Egyptian magic, often noting where such techniques appear again in the later grimoires. If you want to understand Graeco-Egyptian magic, this is where you should start.

A simpler rite you can likewise take up at this stage is to perform a daily hymn to the planetary God/Goddess of that day (Kronos, Zeus, Ares, Phrê/Helios, Aphrodite, Thoth/Hermes, Selênê), during the respective hour, while burning incense. This method has been suggested by several other sources, and I vouch for its inestimable value as regular practice.

Sometimes, the magic comes to you when you least expect it. It can happen during a mundane task or in the midst of chaos. It's like a bolt of lightning that electrifies your soul. In those moments, you feel invincible and unstoppable. But the magic can also be elusive. There are times when you desperately search for it, but it seems to be hiding. It can be frustrating and discouraging when you can't tap into that special energy. It's as if the universe is playing a cosmic game with you. When you have the magic, everything seems vibrant and alive. The world becomes a canvas ready to be painted with your dreams and desires. You see possibilities and opportunities where others see obstacles. You become the master of your own destiny. The magic is not reserved for a select few. It exists within all of us, waiting to be awakened. It's a spark that lies dormant until we choose to ignite it. It's about embracing our true selves and unleashing our full potential. So how do we access this magic? It starts with believing in ourselves and our abilities. It's about cultivating a positive mindset and surrounding ourselves with people who uplift and inspire us. It's about taking risks and pushing beyond our comfort zones. The magic is not a destination, but a journey. It's a constant exploration and discovery of our own capabilities. It's about never settling for mediocrity and always striving for greatness. So, let's embrace the magic within us. Let's tap into that source of power and create something extraordinary. Let's live a life that is filled with passion, purpose, and limitless possibilities. Because we all have the magic - it's time to unleash it..
