What is Magick?
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, all-
embracing 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.
Surely this is simple enough? But no, magick has become
obsfucated under a weight of words, a welter of technical terms
which exclude the uninitiated and serve those who are eager
for a scientific jargon with which to legitimise their enterprise
