Magic and the Law of Attraction

True magic is what mystics, witches, sorcerers, and other earthy folk have practiced since the beginning of time. It is not about the ingredients in a spell that helps you manifest your desires, but the intention behind the ritual, the thought that creates or manifests what you want in your life. The more you believe and have patience the greater probability the magic you perform will become a reality.

There is really one simple little rule one must remember when performing magic. You must realize and know that everything in this world, every one, every plant, every rock everything is connected to you. This is why the old gypsies or wiccans gather herbs, rocks whatever that is natural to conduct a spell. To create a spell they would gather things that reminded them of what they wanted to manifest. If it was good health, then all the herbs that promote good health, if they wanted to manifest strength, then rocks or twigs would be gathered. But in reality it's never about the ingredients, it's about the power you have to tap into everything in the universe through thought, meditation and intention.

The magic of the old days is now explained through quantum physics. Science has proven we can change our lives and reality. So people may argue that "magic" is a bunch of Hollywood baloney, but it's not. It's a way of living your life to the fullest in every aspect. It's using what scientists call "The Law of Attraction" to attract all good things in your life. Folk magic and gypsy magic are the same thing. Each practitioner or witch creates the formula or spell as they go along to bring the power to attract those things, whether it's love, health or wealth.

There are simple steps to creating a magical life and manifesting the things you want in your life. The more you practice, the more power you gain.
When you decide to perform magic, or cast a spell or even just want to sit and dream about what you want in your life, then you must begin to practice the steps to developing your own inner power.
1. The most powerful step to creating a magical life is GRATITUDE.
Gratitude builds faith, and faith helps you manifest what you want. Without gratitude and noticing" what comes your way and being grateful for it you cannot manifest the things in your life. Why should the spirit, God, or the universe respond when you are constantly accepting without gratitude or even SEEING your blessings? Be grateful for everything, for the penny you find in the street, for the fact you have hair, or for the good parts of health. Be grateful for everything say THANK YOU to the universe always for all things that come to you, and you will create more magic in your life.
2. Know what you want, be clear on what it is you want.
Write it down, if you want money write how much you need for the month or what you want for your life. If you want good health write it down and see yourself healthy and strong. Write down how you WISH to see yourself, not how you are now. Write down what you want whether it's a car, a job, a business, whatever. Pretend the page you write on is a Genie' and your wish is its command.
3. Recognize that all things come from a force greater than yourself.
You are part of a whole big universe, you are connected to it, to God, or Source Energy as a scientist would call it. Be aware that your spirit is part of what makes the world go round and what makes it function.
4. Be generous.
You don't have to go out and write big checks or give people money to be generous. The greatest gift you can give is your time to others. Whether it's listening to their woes, or their triumphs. Listening to a child or doing a favor for someone. Generosity can be you giving your time as a volunteer. Yes, and money too is important to give if you have it. Always give and you'll always have.

5. Transform doubt or negative thoughts.
Wow, this can be a tough one since we have thousands of thoughts each day, some of them very negative. We must be conscious of the negative vibes and change them as soon as we are aware of them.
6. Accept your situation, see it for what it is and let it go.
More than likely if you step back for a bit, you can see what you've learned from it, or ask the universe or God/Goddess what you need to learn about it.
7. Never call yourself a name, like "I'm such a loser, wow, I'm stupid, how can I be so dumb?
Take the negative words out of your vocabulary, because if you say you are a loser, then you are truly defining yourself as one. Stop that now!
8. The most powerful shamans/witches/ or wise people know that by keeping your body healthy you have more power in your life.
It's important to always recognize the mind, body and spirit connection to create real magic.
9. Keep a daily journal.
Write down your thoughts, desires, and dreams. Make up spells or rituals in the journal. A Book of Shadows is actually a personal journal created by the practitioner.
10. Meditate!
There is nothing more important to a magical life than the art of meditation. You don't have to do anything fancy, just clear you mind for at least 20 or 30 minutes a day. You can listen to soothing, music and just concentrate on the musical notes to clear your mind quickly and effortlessly.
11. Get rid of addictions, mental, physical, sexual, spiritual, all of them.
When you conquer something like stopping smoking, or losing weight, or becoming healthier, your magical power becomes stronger.
12. Magic is a way of life.
It is a way of becoming more aware of the spirit already within you. You can transform anything, be do or have anything. Magic begins in your mind and manifests into the reality or outcome that you want. Being magical in the end, is just being more spiritual.
