QuestionAboutSpellcasting

Post # 1
Is it just a placebo effect? Someone told me that my type of spell casting derived from white magick mysticism and that it's based on the belief of my mindset. Something about setting my mind, setting myself through a pseudospell(I don't know what he meant). Then I will begin to behave in a way that'll result in what I want.

He also said that it's similar to the placebo effect and that the unconscious behavioral change would lead to a desired outcome in what psychology refers to as a self fulfilling prophecy.

He concluded that the whole basis of white magick is the use of pseudospells and meditative rituals to affect attitudes and behaviors to result in a desired outcome. He says it's often confused with real magick.

The example I gave him was about money. How I ask the universe for money. I create a bubble of safety. Then through meditation, visualization, and intention. I'm very specific on the who, when, where, and how much I'll receive the money. Then I would release that to the universe and forget about it.

So my example of spell casting isn't real magick? What is real magick anyways? My example of how I do these spells is something I consider real magick compared to a mermaid spell.

As you were talking with him, did he mention to you what real magic is? Did he explain how he 'knows' the difference?

Trust in you. Everything is relative and everyone acts subjectively. It happens with religion, morals, beliefs, paths and the same goes for magic. Your magic is real and it is your truth and nobody can't tell you no! They can guide you, can support you and they can tell you if you're wrong but nobody shouldn't create barriers to you. If you want a name, i give it to you. Your craft is called metaphysics, and is real and powerful, so do not worry, magic is about alter the universe anyway.

I think your friend is being a jerk. White and Black magic refer only to the intention of the caster. Both are equal in all respects.

Your "friend" is a fool! He makes the mistake of many in treating a spell as though the spell is magic. It isn't!
A spell is a ritual performed to obtain a magical result. In any case nobody should stop you believing anything you wish. Because that's what a spell really is; a wish! Very much like a prayer.
The difference being that a prayer is "asking" for help from a higher authority; a spell is a do-it-yourself operation.
Sometimes a prayer is "answered", sometimes it is not. Sometimes a spell works, sometimes it does not.

That's exactly how I see a spell. It's a wish. A very detailed wish.
