what is Magick, and how do I do it?

[Diana]

I agree that "magick" is just a word, which has a certain connotation. The connotation is that magick is a specialized, hidden, and a possibly dark practice difficult for the normal person to wield. So just the connotation sets up a barrier in some people's minds, which is probably meant, as those who developed magick would have wanted it to be secret and special.

I will call it conscious manifestation, which is accessible to all.

The first thing one must realize, is that we manifest from the subconscious mind. The trainer of the subconscious mind is the conscious mind. Your experiences, reactions, and internal dialogue keep feeding the conscious mind with concepts and symbols.

So if you want to manifest abundance, but your programming is lack which has rooted in your subconscious, you will continue to produce lack.

Magick and its rituals would be one way to train the subconscious mind with intention. But all you have to do is watch your internal dialogue and begin to notice what your true programmed beliefs are. Then, reprogram your subconscious by discontinuing to feed it with negative statements, and replace them with positive ones.

For instance, align yourself with abundance by seeing abundance everywhere. When you are out driving, notice the abundance of trees, or cars, or clouds. Start shifting the way you see things in a way that aligns with the abundance of the world rather than the lack (I don't have enough time, there are only so many jobs, because of competition I will never be able to have a business like that, I am not talented like so-and-so).

It takes work. We have been programming ourselves all our lives with negative thoughts because that's what we learned to do, and the media and our busy lives just keeps reinforcing it. But if you take conscious control, you can step out of the unwanted pattern and create a new ones.
