I am grateful for this series you're doing Foolish and for this video specifically. In "Becoming Magic" the author Genevieve Davis point to gratitude as being the foundation of magic indeed. The reason sometimes magic backfire, according to her, is because we might not have practiced feeling worthy and grateful enough, we haven't became magical enough to hold magic in place. I find this perspective very useful.

I recall an incident in my reading involving Crowley. He was with someone and decided to give a demonstration of sympathetic magic. He began walking some distance behind a stranger. Crowley walked in step and tried to imitate the walk as best he could. After a few moments of this, Crowley suddenly pitched to the side. At the same time, the stranger pitched to the side, almost losing his balance. Cum grano salis...

@@FoolishFishBooks I read about it in The Occult by Colin Wilson: Seabrook goes on to tell one of the oddest stories about Crowley's powers. When Crowley said he had gained greater power through his vigil, Seabrook asked for a demonstration. Crowley took him along Fifth Avenue, and on a fairly deserted stretch of pavement, fell into step with a man, walking behind him and imitating his walk. Suddenly Crowley buckled at the knees, squatted for a split second on his haunches, then shot up again; the man in front of him also buckled and collapsed on the pavement. They helped him to his feet, and he looked around in a puzzled manner for the banana skin.

When I hear “apprivoiser” I can’t help but think of Joe Dassin’s Aux Champs Elysées, “Il suffisait de te parler, pour t'apprivoiser...” which I more want to translate as “disarm,” in the figurative sense of course, than “tame.” It’s definitely a very personal and subtle way of getting your way than “breaking” a wild horse as we say in English as a means of taming. Interestingly, just today I was watching a KZitem video about the Indo-European tradition of horse sacrifice that talked about how the Indo-European root word for “tame” also had connotations of “rape”! This was tied to their ritual practices concerning kingship and fertility and survived in different ways in different cultures from India to the steppes to the Germanic tribes, the Vikings, and even Ireland, but it does speak to the different way to see “your will be done.” Somewhat echoing another commenter, when I was in education, I heard a school principal speak about how there are two ways to lead a school: by inspiring fear or by inspiring respect. Leading by fear was about the punitive threat, and created a hostile learning and working environment, which is not really a learning environment at all. While leading by respect is about servant-leadership and leading by example-being the example of what the school community, and by extension, society, can embody. I see you doing this in your own way. I like to think that’s what I’m striving for too, even if I’m not exactly using magic to do so. Wishing you and your viewers the best for this 2021.

It had also dawned on me one day out of the blue, that when they refer to "the word" in the Bible, it is not reading the bibles words they were referring to, that was another one of the great "edits" of the truth, that the church of Roman had done. The Word, that Jesus Christ was referring too, if you pay close attention to his actual words, he says, I spoke the Word, and you are heal. He is referring to the words that come out of our mouths. As he said, what is in him, is in us. And we all our Devine. It is our words. Jesus was a energy healer, as the healers we have here today, and the source energy ran through him. He was the only one that they seen at that time, so their belief was so high, that they were heal instantly. We are so full of logic today, that it can not be done. Even if we were to see a show like that. Because people do do that today, people just think it's fake. What he did was not a miracle, it is a natural healing. I did it last night. We can all do it.

Just wanted to share an experience which I have noticed this years ago, I always said growing up I had " be careful what you wishful for syndrome " as I noticed words held more power then we realized, and were to be taken literally. Could even come back with a twist, at least in my case, but I am a girl who's mother named her Twilight Dawn, and 3 older brothers named Sundown , Thunder and Twister. That saw Beings in living in my house at night, there was no doubt in my mind if there was something of the strange, it was real and I keep it to myself. I had also gone to jail 30 times, If we wanted hot water, we had to ask the duties, and they always said no. I noticed that the girls would always say "thank you " after being told no. And laughed at them in my head. They would have me ask, cause they never told me no, I never said thank you, for any time that they did tell me no. One time, the deputy heard a girl say under her breathe, "they never tell her no" and she says, " cause she isn't a kiss ass " and I smile at the other girls as a walk away to get our water, " I don't thank people for nothing" lol your video reminded me of a funny memory that can re-enforce your statements. What your saying is true 👍 🤣

Hey, so, about those little tiny strings, I swear to god I’ve seen those hundreds of times in my life so far, most recently on a New Years Eve mushroom trip, but mainly when I was a kid or when I had first received my black belt. It’s like a carpet of darting shimmering light, right? You can also look “down the grain” of them, and see everything as a sparkling rain of photons. How fascinating! If that description lines up, that’d be really neato!! Also, if you could describe the difference between electric and magnetic fluid, I’d really appreciate it!
