I despise the phrase "use magick". Magick is all around us, in us, in all of nature. It is in becoming aware of it and connecting to it that we can work with it. It's right in front of our eyes, yet many are blind to it. When we see it for what it is, that's when it becomes real. People create their own realities through perspective. And they live in their own illusions. Breaking through those illusions is what we, as magick practioners strive for. And by doing so, we grasp the truth and within that truth is all the is and ever was.

People only see what they are prepared to see. -Ralph Waldo Emerson

I disagree, what you are talking about is energy and life force. Magick to me is the manipulation and control of this, so in a sense you can use it for you are made of it. Im just wondering what type of paranormal phenom or experiences of something that could not be explained to be evaluated in a conversational manner.

Magic is not all about the manipulation and control over energy. There's much more to it than you seem to understand. And Raven very well explained how magick is. But what do you think magick is? It's life. It's death. A miracle. A wish. A thought. The energy within you. The energy all around you and throughout all manner of life. One does not necessarily have to learn manipulation and control over energy to "use" magic. Is it not magical enough the miracle of a new born life? Is the beauty and essence of what nature is not magical enough? Most people do some sort of spell without meaning to, or even realizing it for that matter. Do they manipulate energy to do this? Yes, but not as energy manipulation is taught. Which makes all the difference. As Raven said, break through the illusions of your perspective of what you think magic is and learn to grow and know what magick truly is.

Again, i disagree vanity its not that i dont understand your illusion of magick its the fact you absolutely do not understand me. Falling into contradiction and argueing about how magick is not just control. People are aware of what they are doing no matter what even if they do not have the illusion of calling it magick. To me magick is just accesing the secrets of the all seeing eye which is the mind. Yet you doubt it everytime.

Anomaly is right there is a difference between energy and magic

as for strange tings that happened there are a few very scary tings that happened but only a few that have to do whit magic

first i can see energy

second i manged to stir coffee whit my mind but that's it

there are many forms of energy, what did it look like to you details please. Also if you can stir coffee with your mind try putting a marble in a bottle filled with water and moving it up and around.

Energy is at the core basis of magic. No magic can be done without energy. So with that magick is energy. But magic is also so much more than energy.
Is a child going to blow out her candles on her birthday cake after making a wish and instinctly know "I'm doing a spell"? No. The child is not, unless prior taught the truth of the matter. The majority of people in the world populace don't even realize that their mere thoughts are spells in the making/working. They aren't going to know that. Most people aren't going to coincide spells and prayers together, because it's the majority that are the ones who will say that spells aren't real and can't be done. Yet they do spells every day without realizing they do. I can go on and on about the act of doing a magic spell without realizing it. As well as going on and on about the matter of intentionally casting a spell without actually consciously manipulating energy to cast the spell. (Spell is merely an example.) Proving over and over that more people do some thing concerning magick without actually realizing they are in one way or another.
You say me and Raven (among others) are the ones who need to learn what true magic is and break out of the illusion of what we assume magic is. No. That's just not true by any means. You are the one who needs to break out of the illusion of what YOU think magic is and what YOU think magic can do, and actually learn what magic is and what it can and cannot do. Actually open your ears and open your eyes to the truth being told. Actually pay attention instead of trying to prove some one wrong, which you don't do good at by the way.
Magic is far much more than the intentional manipulation of energy to bring about an intent.

ha vanity such a waste of a long post... You just dont get it do you even know what your arguement is? Basically what your saying is your trying to work around proving me wrong by saying energy is more than control because some people use magick withought even knowing it haha wow kitty cat. Meow.

vanity sigh* another person trying to convince me what the boundaries of reality are sorry i dont belieave there are boundaries i also dont know what is possible and what is impossible what i can or cant do im still learning. Im sorry im not all knowing like you vanity lol. We both live in illusions and the difference between me and you is I KNOW im in one.
