Magic Power: Finding Your Magical Power Source

Magic is an ancient tool that is powered by the desire and drive to connect with the universe through nature and influence the surrounding environment. It is also a tool that is used to achieve one's goals and dreams. There are many different forms of magic and magical practices, but they are all connected by similar basic principals.

Most basic magical theory agrees that everything is connected through the energies that bind the universe as one solitary entity. We are all a part of this unified whole. On a certain level, every single particle of matter and energy throughout the cosmos has some effect upon the rest within the continuum of space-time. Simply put, everything and everyone in the universe is connected and a part of everything else. There is no separation. Separateness is just an illusion or misconception. It is through the realization of this or the path to the complete realization of this truth that true magic power is attained.

This power is something that is always there. It permeates everything and is the source of all things. When we channel or claim this power, we are simply recognizing or realizing what is already there. The true realization of this power is not simply knowing about it. It involves accepting and understanding the truth of it on a much deeper level of the psyche. There are many paths to achieving this level of realization or enlightenment. The most effective means of achieving enlightenment is through meditation as well as mental and emotional discipline. Creative visualization in the form of rituals, spells, litanies, and other artistic forms of self expression can also be used as tools for this realization. They work because they speak to deeper levels of the psyche in uniquely personal ways.

Our thoughts and emotions are patterns of energy and how we form those patterns determines how we utilize this source of power within our lives. Thoughts and emotion lead to action or inaction, both of which determine the flow of the source energy and how it interacts with us as well as those around us. This power can be used in positive ways to enrich our lives and the lives of others. It can also be wielded in a negative fashion that can ultimately only lead to the amplification of our suffering. This energy can also be channeled in a neutral manner that can create the illusion of the power being non-existent or inaccessible. Many people fall into this last category of energy manifestation. They believe and feel that they are powerless, effectively cutting themselves off from their power to do, have, and be that which they truly desire.

The source of all things itself is pure. It is the essence and energy that binds all things in the universe as one. This unity and the realization thereof is beyond the boundaries of what we call time and space. It transcends all limitation. If one were to fully realize their potential and utilize this connection to the one pure source, then there would be absolutely no limit to what they could achieve or know.

What holds most of us back from realizing our full potential is belief or the lack thereof. No matter how bad we want to believe and accept that our thoughts and feelings can shape our reality, we are still continually held back by our old beliefs. The things that we were taught as children to believe about ourselves and how we relate to everything else create a barrier. This is why meditation as well as mental and emotional discipline are necessary. They help us to unlearn limiting negative concepts such as scarcity, fear, and powerlessness. Through diligently practicing meditation, one can learn to see the truth in all things. You will begin to see how the whole of the universe is reflected in all things. It is through this realization that you will come to find and know the infinite source of magical power that you are.
