The District of the Hare

If I were to cast a financial wealth spell, the money would come through whatever channel has the best money potential: It could be a gift from a relative, a bonus paycheck, or just finding some extra cash I stashed away at some point and forgot about.

Human, suddenly sucked by portal into a Magical Land: damn I wish I came from a magical world lol

Elf wizard dude: hahaha bro what are you talking about

Human: well, my world is just—

Elf wizard dude: what about the magic rocks????

Human: What magic rocks?

Elf wizard dude: You know, the magic rocks. The ones that generate near infinite energy by tearing apart the fabric of their reality? You know, like, uranium? You haven’t found those yet?

Human: Wait wait wait. That’s not—

Elf wizard dude: And like, come on, you even have some low level necromantic spells over there, like—

Human: We do not have necromantic spells, what are you talking about

Elf wizard dude: didn’t you say your friend was an EMT though? they do that shit all the time. Hell, you don’t even have to be like a high level caster or some shit, it takes like a few weeks to learn CPR

Human: Wh—

Elf wizard dude: You guys do have CPR, right?

Human: I mean yes but—what the—CPR is not necromancy!! That’s not how it works, it doesn’t bring people back from the—well I guess technically it does but that doesn’t—

Elf wizard dude: Next you’re going to be telling me Mothman doesn’t “count” either.

Human:

Human: …

Elf wizard dude: Ohhh. You got just the cursed magic rocks.

Human: …

Human: Well I mean—there is that one type of parrot but like that doesn’t—

Elf wizard dude: And no sapient animals? At all?

Human: Well ... I mean, depends what you call ‘sapient’. Crows remember who’s nice to them and bring them presents, and will get the whole flock to attack people who are mean to them, and cats basically conned us into lavishing them with food and attention--

Elf wizard dude: And that?

Human: Oh, that’s a pigeon. They’re really dumb, though.

Elf wizard dude: It’s getting on your public transport network!

Human: Yeah, it’ll get off at its stop-- wait.

Like, there is nothing about sprite that should soothe my stomach when I'm nauseous, and I know this, but if I'm feeling nauseous sipping sprite is one of the fastest ways to settle my stomach, because when I was little my mom told me it would help.

...well what the actual heck does this shit mean?

Found this graffiti a couple weeks ago along the walking path near work... Kinds gave me the chills. Wtf?

The old books on magic and witchcraft - really most of the material written before the 1980s - it was not written in a friendly, 101 style. It was written for readers who sought out the hidden mysteries, readers who had a sense of expanded consciousness, readers who were not afraid to put in the effort to learn systems and make them work. It was not assumed that magic should seem simple or friendly or easy. No, magic was hard and weird and difficult to even comprehend.

Even books like Paul Huson’s “Mastering Witchcraft” is not overly simple, not like the stuff that would follow. I highly recommend it for beginners, but let’s be real. The introduction is a 10-page screed on gnosticism and he also encourages the reader to evoke a spirit from the Ars Goetia in, like, chapter two or something. But “Mastering Witchcraft” was pre-80s witch-boom.

Now everybody wants everything spoonfed to them. Do you want to experience deep, life-changing mysteries or do you want pretty plastic baubles?

Both science and magick are methods to create change in the world.
