“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.”
You and I are not two. In the identity of form, in the origin and in the end, we are one. I am responsible for your evil and your good , for your truth and your falsehood. I can do nothing to change you now, but I can improve you by improving myself.
“Man has been called the child of circumstance, the plaything of fate; but the truth is that man owns himself, and the circumstances which surround and enfold him shift and change as the wind blows. The man who governs himself shapes and fashions the conditions which are about him, through which his journey leads. Every motion he makes is a new event evolved from himself.”
El hombre ha sido llamado el hijo de las circunstancias, el juguete del destino; pero la verdad es que el hombre es dueño de sí mismo, y las circunstancias que lo rodean y lo envuelven cambian y cambian a la medida que sopla el viento. El hombre que se gobierna a sí mismo forma las condiciones que lo rodean, a través de las cuales conducen su viaje. Cada movimiento que hace es un nuevo evento desarrollado por él mismo.
WHATEVER YOU DO WITH THIS FUCKING MAGICK THING, DO WHAT THOU WILT SHALL BE THE WHOLE OF THE LAW. BUT TAKE RESPONSIBILITY FOR YOUR ACTIONS. MAGICK IS MAGICK, ELEMENTAL FORCE, NO MORE, NO LESS. THE STUFF THAT KEEPS EVERYTHING TOGETHER AND MOVING. NOT GOOD, NOT BAD, NEITHER BLACK NOR WHITE. KEEP THIS IN MIND AND YOUR FUCKING MAGICK.
