Why Direct Magick?
To explore the hidden pieces that make magick work.
In traditional magick, your ritual communicates your intent to your unconscious, which contacts an external force, which does the magick. That’s a lot of steps between you and your magick.
In direct magick, you make your mental muscles conscious, and feel every step of your magick as it happens.
When you heal a friend’s knee, instead of imagining her knee and sending out your intent, you consciously move her knee’s energy, and the pathways connecting that energy to her cells. Like molding clay in your hands, you feel yourself shaping your magick.
When you channel a force to heal a cold, instead of focusing on your intent, you talk directly to the force, in English. It explains how it eliminates a virus, and why the technique is different than for bacteria. Once you’re exploring magick’s inner-workings, there’s always more to discover.
When the forces you channel can’t heal your friend’s hives, you watch its technique, ask the force what’s going wrong, and program a new technique to solve the problem. Instead of relying on others’ solutions, you create new solutions for others to use.
Every time you do magick, you see all the moving pieces. So you stop guessing at how magick might work, and start exploring how it does work.
Direct magick isn’t for everyone. It’s not as fast to learn as ritual magick, or as social as paganism. But if you love magick, direct magick should be part of your toolbox.
