The Laws of Magick Return to the Magickal Index Allow me to begin with some explanation of myself, for that which I believe colors the words I shall use. I am a Universal Animist, a type whom many find 'quaint' nowadays.
Any manifestation includes literally anything.
Animals, plants, mountains, deserts, rivers, spirits, as well as people. I find it possible to wield more energy through friendship and cooperation than through mastery and control. Probably a lot of that arises from my perception that the energy used for keeping another bound to one's will is not needed when raising power becomes an act of mutual affinity rather than exclusive control. So much for the intro. Now, on to the Laws of Magick.
