Everything is Dual; everything has poles; everything has its pair of opposites; like and unlike are the same; opposites are identical in nature, but different in degree; extremes meet; all truths are but half-truths; all paradoxes may be reconciled.
The Kybalion on The Principle of Polarity.

“Malicious acts are performed by people for personal gain … Sorcerers, though, have an ulterior purpose for their acts, which has nothing to do with personal gain. The fact that they enjoy their acts does not count as gain. Rather, it is a condition of their character. The average man acts only if there is a chance for profit. Warriors say they act not for profit but for the spirit.”
“When the mind does not doubt the will stops hesitating, and the man got what he wants.”
“What is Magick? Several definitions float into my mind, but none of them do it full justice. The world is magical; we might get a sense of this after climbing a mountain and looking down upon the landscape below, or in the quiet satisfaction at the end of one of those days when everything has gone right for us. Magick is a doorway through which we step into mystery, wildness, and immanence. We live in a world subject to extensive and seemingly, allembracing systems of social & personal control that continually feed us the lie that we are each alone, helpless, and powerless to effect change. Magick is about change. Changing your circumstances so that you strive to live according to a developing sense of personal responsibility; that you can effect change around you if you choose; that we are not helpless cogs in some clockwork universe. All acts of personal/collective liberation are magical acts. Magick leads us into exhiliration and ecstacy; into insight and understanding; into changing ourselves and the world in which we participate. Through magick we may come to explore the possibilities of freedom.”

COMMAND YOUR ENERGIES
In order for energy to respond, there must be a command on your part.
Belief in oneself comes from knowing oneself.You cannot rely on the diversity of other people’s opinion about you.
Look at your own opinion about you.
Then, get to know yourself betterHow can energies reflect anything other than our own vibration?
And isn’t it unacceptable for the Master in you to create ‘by default’?
Of course it is unacceptable!
Deep down, you know this is natural for you to create consciously.This is at the core of the question: Self Trust
How can we expect energies to respond to a half-hearted, victimism-tainted miniwish? Not even our pets respond to that!
Energy, health, resources, love, you name it: you call it, you give it to yourself.
Practice with your personal energy first. As above so below, as within so without. You don’t need to act on the outer energy, but on your own consciousness. As you focus on Being the All, you will find that the All is You. And that is an entirely new game.
Remember your own Magnificence….remember….
– Marco Antonio Gómez
“All the gods, all the heavens, all the hells, are within you.”
~ Joseph Campbell
A ritual is the enactment of a myth. And, by participating in the ritual, you are participating in the myth. And since myth is a projection of the depth wisdom of the psyche, by participating in a ritual, participating in the myth, you are being, as it were, put in accord with that wisdom, which is the wisdom that is inherent within you anyhow. Your consciousness is being re-minded of the wisdom of your own life.
