There is no room for doubt where faith is required. Directing magick, as opposed to conducting magick, requires strength of will interwoven in faith and a firm desire Because you are “directing” energy you must have a good understanding about yourself, namely your intent. The subconscious is nothing to play with…it will do as directed, which leads to karma. You will harvest exactly what you plant, which makes it dangerous for the inexperienced.
Learn therefore about yourself first of all. Seek your place in this great universe so that the knowledge becomes part of you. The great martial artist Bruce Lee taught his students, “don’t think…feel”. If you sincerely look for the answers from the Divine…you will find them…and you will be presently surprised when all your searching bring you right back to yourself because you have a bit of the Divine in you and the abilities to attain to whatever your heart desires. Mind you…all in balance.
Journey well…and may the brightest of blessing be with you.
