The WORK of Sorcery
Every now and then I talk to someone in the course that tells me they are getting nowhere and their life is not changing at all from Strategic Sorcery or magic in general. When this happens I ask what specifically they have been doing. What methods have you employed? What offerings are you making? What do your meditation sessions look like? What spirits are you conjuring? More importantly what are you aiming your magic at? What of strategic part of the course have you been tying your magic to?
The answer often goes like this “uhhhh…. well, I read the lessons….”
Now, thankfully this is not typical of my students. I have zero complaints about students and am constantly amazed at the amount of work that they do and the results that they get. But make no mistake, it is work.
I often post field reports from students on this blog. It is my hope that these reports show what is possible with hard work guided by skillful methods and sound principals, not indicate that money just showers down for joining a course or doing a spell.
You gotta summon spirits and build relationships like the Necromancer up in the picture.
And map out your strategy like this guy…
And get your hands dirty with the right materia like this guy.
Meditate, make offerings, study, and be equally as dedicated to the non-magical elements of what you apply your magic to.
Easy it is not. But its rewarding as hell, and while results don’t come easy, they come faster than many people would like you to believe. If you start calling yourself an Ipsissimus in a year I am going to laugh my ass off at you, as I should, but people that claim it takes years and years of sweat and toil to get even the most modest result are just as misleading as those who claim to be able to hand it to you on a silver platter.
Whether you are doing my course, another program, or just going it on your own: do the work. Otherwise you are just a dude with a weird book fetish spending too much time on facebook.
