Thursday Thoughts

Intermediate Practicum
Self Analysis

Knowledgeable and Wise Practitioners all do a very similar task that empowers their personal practices.   Without Self Doubt, they are regularly asking themselves questions to stay relevant and insightful on what works for them.  Whether Working Healing Medicine for family or utilizing personal Magick to Banish,  asking yourself these questions on a regular basis will help you achieve the best results from your Work. 

MAGICK & MEDICINE GOALS
Successful Practitioners of all the Arts understand the importance of goal-setting in everything from long-term vision to short-term motivation. Focusing the Intent and aligning it with an envisioned goal helps you to organize your actions and make the most of your ambition and aspirations.


BAD HABITS THWART WORK
Not having a correspondence is one thing, but continually not checking on planetary alignments for example and simply using “whatever” without programming it for its purpose can thwart an entire Working. Why? Everything in Matter vibrates at its OWN frequency. If you do not pay attention to that, it can become a BAD HABIT.  Our bad habits–and we all have them in some form–may be damaging our Work in ways we cannot see until its too late.  Another “bad habit” some Practitioners have is not even determining if the Work is correct for where they currently are, much less when. Remember that planetary thing we mentioned? Sometimes working with planets such as Saturn can bring up unresolved issues from our current lifetime’s past, or even another past altogether instead of what we had for Intent. Our Work is worth the time it takes to see what is in the sky.  It is worth “pulling a card”. It is worth “sleeping on”. WE ARE WORTH IT. Magick is an extension of our energetic Being, and ALL THINGS of Matter exert energy.  A simple warding may have seen that one Intent come to fruition. Giving a little thought to what is around serves to the Highest Benefit of most Practitioners.


MOTIVATED INTENT
Motivation is the force that keeps pushing us forward. It is our internal drive to achieve, produce, and develop–and it is always to the Highest Benefit to pay attention to the things that feed personal motivation.  “Do I really want to do this?”  Sometimes it is not “doubt” that is stopping us but Higher Self saying, “hey, did you check the moon phase?” Sometimes it really matters, sometimes NOT. But, if the thought crosses the mind, THERE IS A REASON.

KIND OF PRACTITIONER
Character rules. We are not born with all of the qualities manifested that make up our entire current character, but they do develop as we go through our Experiences of Life, failures and wins. Govern the sense of responsibility held and responses to events to develop the character that sees the best Intent to Work towards. 


MISTAKES HAPPEN
Laugh! Especially if no one was hurt, and even sometimes if not seriously.  The biggest growth magnet is the ability to look at the Work we do and discover ways that come from Spirit that make that Work BETTER.  Look at our errors, and learn from them.  Mistakes are a kind of “constructive criticism” for Self.  We as individuals make “mistakes” a bad thing.  Do not beat yourself up, FORGIVE YOUR SELF.   Ask, “what mistakes did I make with today’s Work, and what can I learn from them?”

We all Experience failures and mistakes; it is how we respond to them that make the difference. Everything from elections to spilt milk responses MATTER.

YOU control that in your accountability. 

We can choose to see failure as proof of our inadequacy, or recognize it as an incredible learning Experience that may have happened “for a reason”.  What reason will you find?

GRATITUDE
There will always be bad days and good days, bad luck and good luck. Through ALL of our Experiences for all of time, but, gratitude remains among the most beneficial and useful tools that we can exhibit. Remember. no one is promised another breath.

Understanding the value of Self and the Experiences we each have will show us what really matters on our individual Journeys. Ask yourself, “what’s important? What keeps me level-headed and Focused on what is important for me? If we want to create a shift in our Medicine and Magick, make it a regular practice of asking the right questions for Self FIRST. 

It is always a result of the correct questions being asked that we are then lead to the correct answers that serve to our Highest Benefit.
