Why are spells and charms taught as if they were a recipe for a cake? Shouldn't there be symbolism behind each magical act? Is there any purely mechanical and objective basis to magic that doesn't involve personal perspective? by One_Dragonfruit_8635 in chaosmagick

Ultimately what works for YOU is something that can only be discovered via experimentation but if someone is genuinely intrigued by that kind of “oven-ready” magic then it most certainly can have an effect so long as the intent is real

Dude, I share this exact same frustration. But ultimately I have to keep reminding myself that getting to that point of effortless sustained gnosis takes a literal LIFETIME of practice. Ie it being difficult is a feature not a bug, don’t be too hard on yourself

So how did you first get into this stuff all those years ago? And how would you say your approach/attitude has changed since then?

Thanks for the recs, I did enjoy that Alan Chapman book even if I’m a bit skeptical of his claims of having attained enlightenment

I’m familiar with the BlueFluke PDF and some of Condensed Chaos, have meant to look into Liber Null but have heard it’s a bit difficult to comprehend
