Though
magic has been shrouded in myth and mystery for many centuries, it is
really no more mysterious than shifting consciousness at will. When we
change our consciousness, our whole outlook on reality will change, and
that creates ripples of transformation all around us. Our thoughts are
very powerful! They create our reality.
There are ancient magical paths and mythologies laid out in every
cultural
tradition, any of which can be valuable to the magical initiate, but
the Celtic path is unique in that it is firmly rooted in the Underworld
traditions of the Faery realm. Grounding our magical practice
with such deep roots
allows us to expand our consciousness to cosmic dimensions in a
balanced way.
External
experience always reflects our inner reality. Expand
inwardly and your outer experience will expand. Similarly,
as above, so below - when we explore the mysteries of the Underworld
and Faerie realms,
we discover our
connection with the Overworlds of stars, Sun and Moon, the angelic
realms, and the realms of sky Goddesses and Gods. That's
the essence of true Magic! (Sometimes
spelled Magick.) The
laws of nature guide the process of Magic. We
do not seek to change or control nature, but rather to align with it
so perfectly that we become part of the synergistic and synchronistic
flow of creation.
Magic
is:
-
ecstatic revelation
-
alignment with the Oneness of All That Is
-
communion with the living Spirits of
Nature, Earth, and Cosmos
Magic taps
into the ancient wisdom of our ancestors, while also
expanding our awareness of the rhythms of the Universe and the
whispers of the future. It
sets in
motion new currents of possibilities, weaving new threads into the
tapestry of life, and lays upon us the profound responsibility of
creating
new realities.
In short, magic can and will change your life. If
you
approach it with positive intent in a spirit of love and service, you
will reap rewards beyond your wildest dreams.
The Purpose of Magic
There are three important purposes for magic:
* Personal and planetary healing
- which can be quite profound! This includes creating bridges of
consciousness between the human, faery, angelic, animal, and plant
realms
* Exploration of realities beyond
the manifest world - including the realities of ancient
gods and
goddesses, faeries, ancestors, and angels, as well as the spirit realms
of plants, minerals, and animals
* Manifesting new realities
- Law of Attraction dictates that what we focus upon will become our
reality
In
working with magic we learn to focus our thoughts and feelings in order
to shift our inner awareness in positive ways. We explore the
dark shadows as well as the bright lights of our inner reality and
bring back
treasures hidden there. These
treasures make us more balanced and whole, because they are actually
parts of oursleves that we have forgotten or misplaced.
-
We work within the wheel of the year, honoring
the phases of the moon and the cross quarter days, Solstices, and
Equinoxes.
-
We explore the
Otherworlds represented by the cosmic Tree of Life.
-
We enter into the rich
mythology and lore that was passed down to us by our ancestors, in
which much magic is hidden.
-
We work in the tradition of
the Druids and Merlins to balance the
relationship between human, animal, plant, and faery beings.
