Let's see what spills out...
Bless us all.
I was having a conversation last evening (with a real person, not myself). During it, I said part of my being a seer, medicant, spiritual intuitive, and prophet *shudder* was to acquaint people with the fact the Universe Myriadis is Magick(tm) energy.
We are magick energy, as is the stuff we use, breathe, think with, feel, believe, do... All of everything!!! It just is, flows, ebbs, moves, stays, etc.
We use it, even if we don't believe in it. We are it! Making/cooking food is magick. Vacuuming the living room is magick. Petting the cat is, eating, shopping, anything we do is magick! All of these things, usually, are done without thought, intention, or direction. It just moves the magick.
Now, witches can work magick. Pagans, Goddess Women, Wiccans, etc. work it also, usually in conjunction with their Divine Spark/Higher Self/God/dess/es/Whatever. They use thought, intention, and direction.
Unfortunately, a great many of those in the above paragraph don't realize/accept/aren't capable of being conscious of the fact of magickal energy is us/present/everything/the Universe Myriadis. They keep their magickal workings separate. In that metaphorical pretty jar on the shelf to keep it 'unsullied'/safe/'special'. Taken down and used on holy days, powerful lunations, astrologically perfect times, etc.
ENOUGH!!! STOP IT!!!
This energy, this magick, this power is in dirt, dog poop, skyscrapers, tenements, thought, tv shows, food, body emissions, your Tshirt, their words, feelings, EVERYTHING!!! And yes, I believe different things can influence the working: astrological things, time of day, etc. However, there is one thing that trumps all else- NEED & NOW!
As I am a Pagan, I refer to it as Everyday Spiritual Magick. Some of you may refer to it as Everyday Magick. Whatever you do, do it with intention, thought, and direction. Digging into your soul, pooping, eating, reading a book, sitting, watching tv, anything one does is Everyday Spiritual Magick.
Back in the day, spirituality (or religion) suffused society. When you woke up, you said a prayer. Food came with prayers, grabbing your hoe and using it went with a chant, and so on. Everyday, every activity, came with intention, thought, and direction. There were holy days, specific times for specific workings, etc., but magick happened all the time!
Our society today has stripped the magick, the spirituality, from living. Almost all of us go on autopilot for some or most of the day. We are shallowly connected to our own living, our own being in this society, much less than the Universe Myriadis.
As one of the people who understands/accepts/believes in the magick/power/energy, even I 'don't get it' much of the time. I don't focus, direct, intend, or think about what I'm doing all of the time. I need to. We all do.
Lately, I've been complimenting and thanking people. Wishing them better or more fabulous days. I am fighting the good fight against negativity in the world, putting more positivity out there. Yes, it's a big working, and it depends on others to 'pay it forward'. But, just getting a smile is worth it. I pushed the negativity back a little/moment/in the now.
I remember to imbue my dishes, food prep, cat food, and medications with appropriate intentions, direction, and clear, conscious thought. I remember I've stopped blessing my bed, the clean laundry, and vehicles I ride in. I am human.
But I am a Pagan. I strive for a more conscious, Sacred, Spiritual, magickal life. It is a struggle. But anything worth so much does come with a struggle. It means change.
And we humans only welcome good change. We'll fight change we think threatens us. How many of us (actually) are/choose to be connected to the oil spill in the Gulf? Haiti? Drug cartel wars in Mexico? People facing severe/chronic/life-ending issues? Gaza? All of these at once? Most of us keep our distance (for some, because their earth vessel (body) won't let them), but the rest of us aren't the activists rushing in.
Each of us can't do everything. Really, you cannot. We may want to, but that simply scatters energy. Look for what you can do. I can be a more conscious, spiritual, magickal, aware being. I continue to become a seer, a medicant, a spiritual intuitive, channel/voice for the Divine, and a prophet *shudder*. I will continue my studies, my magick, my abilities, my powers, and so on. I will speak my truth. I will be a voice for the Divine. I will continue to evolve.
I will practice more and more Everyday Spiritual Magick!
Bless us all! Beyond measure!
