I should probably explain what I mean when I say I use spells.
Not that I need to, but it'll make me feel better lol.
My life has a way of working itself out. As it does for many. I can think of many situations where an outcome was not what it logically should have been.
The little girl living in a fantasy world within me still needs to feel that I am controling it with some huge light show, ritual, ect. Not just that I am controling it with my own positive energy on a daily basis by doing nothing "special".
What do I use it for...? hmmm....
I started to practise when I was 7. I have always had help and guiding from spirits at my graveyard in my homwtown. They taught me how to work with energy. (And for some reason how to manipulate fire, pretty cool... hehe)
I aint so much of a spellcaster, more like Divination and Tarot kinda girl ;)
but when I do spells, I usually do it for others. (I sometimes have a need to help...)
But yea. They taught me to help those who need it. (Or, those who need it and deserve it)
started at 5, it just kinda came to me. i used to play with Anubis in my closet, fell out of it for a while, came back even stronger and have been with it ever since. IT fills that religious void i have i guess. I dunno, I just feel one with everything, and magic makes me feel whole inside, like there isn't anything missing. if that makes any sense
I do not use it with reason.. -_-, Yeah, I tend to be an unreasonable person.. ^_^ so, why do I use magick? Well, the reason is because I can. What do I use it for? I use it on anything and everything just because I can. -_- all the answers will come to the same conclusion just because I can.. no reason needed...
i use it to live my life to the full, to truly experience and enjoy everything from every possible point of view at once thus never missing out on anything...yes, i know this makes me sounds like a perception junkie, but what is life then but the art of playing and percieving while journeying? magick is a tool which makes the playing more fun, the percieving more intense, and the journey more of an adventure.
A spiritual journey that fills an otherwise meaningless life with direct purpose. An understanding of all things that needs to be understood. Testing the limits of the universe... and yourself. But most importantly: the ability to differentiate TRUTH from fallacy.
I really only use it for some people who like nice days outside. -^^- I normally cast a sun spell, or a cloud spell or whatever. I haven't done much else otherwise. =/
I use magic every day, but I haven't cast a spell in years. For me, magic is a way of life, and a way of thinking. It is about discovering more about the world around you, and more about yourself. I study magic, not for the sake of being able to have spells for every situation, but to understand what magic is and to understand who I am at my core.
One a side note, I don't believe one can change the weather, as before stated, but that is my own belief.
