Magic is the art of shaping your reality in such a way as to bring about change in the sphere of your existence. This must be done while being fully mindful that it is your responsibility to bring about this change without harming another being or by denying them there right of free action and choice. As wielders of these powers we are bound to keep our actions non-violent and non-restrictive. Magic is the birth rite of each of us and I believe that all people are capable of utilizing this capacity for change and growth. One must first consider if the magic is necessary, if it something that you are unable to achieve through normal ways of action, then use your magical abilities for your own growth and protection.
