"I am the way, the truth and the life. Noone comes to the Father except
through me."
"I am" is a form of the verb "To Be". Be the "I AM". Be what you want to
become. Act it out. Be the vibrational match for what you want. I think
therefore I am. I am therefore I have.
"The way". Being "I AM" is the way. If you are being "I AM" in a negative
context, you will attract negative results. Being "I AM" in a positive
sense, attracts positive results.
"The truth". The truth of this whole statement. That being "I AM" is the
way.
"The life". Being "I AM" is the way to the life you desire.
"Noone comes to the Father except through me." By being "I AM", you
attain union with the creative force in the universe (The Father). You
are the creative force (comes to the Father).

Michaelangelo
In the movie "The Secret", Joe Vitale says "You are the Michaelangelo of your own life, and the David you are sculpting is you."
A little further on in the movie, it is stated "This is a feeling Universe. When you change your feelings, the Universe conspires to the nature of your song. It has to, because that's the way you feel".
Therein lies the essence of all Magic - emotion.
Everything in this Universe vibrates. It is all the same energy. The only reason you perceive many different "things" is only the difference in rate of vibration.
A diamond and a piece of coal are one and the same, for example - only that the diamond has a higher rate of vibration.
Now we'll get to the point - sculpting or authoring your life.
This sculpting or authoring is a Magical Ritual, just like any Magical Ritual.
So, set the mood for this - incense, candles etc.
Now, write the story of your life. From where you were to where you want to be. Be creative and think big with this. Afterall, it's only a story, right?
No, it's a manifestation technique, a Magical Ritual.
Really get into the story. Write of a life beyond your wildest dreams! Emotionalize what you want. Spend as much time and energy on this as you can. It's your life, you are the most important person in it, for without you, you would not be in your life at all.
Read your story as much as possible. Get into the emotions behind it. The joy, the happiness, the contentment.
Live the life of your dreams!

Essence of Magic
Many neo-pagans base their magical workings on the premise that there
are four magical Elements, called Earth, Air, Fire and Water. With a
possible fifth Element known as Aether or Spirit.
This understanding provides you with a great base to work from.
Tarot tells you that the suit of Wands represents the element of Fire,
the source of creativity and passion, amongst many other things.
The suit of Cups represents Water and the emotions.
Swords represent Air and the intellect (mind).
Pentacles represent Earth worldly matters.
Next, you could take a look at Ceremonial Magic with it's Lesser
Banishing Ritual of the Pentagram.
Raphael is located in the East and he represents Air (Swords - mind).
Gabriel is located in the West and she represents Water (Cups -
emotions).
Michael is at the South and he represents Fire (Wands - creativity).
Auriel is in the North and he represents Earth (pentacles - worldly
matters).
You could then skip to Kaballah to discover what lies there.
You are usually greeted immediately by the concept of four worlds.
Briefly, the four worlds are four levels of existence.
First, Assiah. This is our physical world and would equate with Auriel,
Earth element, pentacles and worldly matters. Assiah is the world of
manifestation. Manifestation begins with an idea.
Next level up is Yetzirah. This is the formative world. It is the world
of intent and motivation, where an idea is formed into a blueprint
before the idea manifests. It equates to Raphael, Swords and mind.
The next level is called Briah. Briah equates to Gabriel and emotions,
also the suit of Cups of the Tarot.
Finally, there is Atziluth. This is the Spiritual world and this is the
world of Fire or Desire. Desire is divine perfection (unconditional
love). All else are offshoots of this perfection.
Ideation-Imagination-Emotion-Desire.
Magical rituals are great. They are a point of focus for the Magical
Elements of Ideation-Imagination-Emotion- Desire. Always bear in mind,
though, fun as Ritual is, it is just a tool - albeit a necessary one in
most cases.
But knowledge of WHY a certain Magical Ritual is performed the way it
is, will give that Ritual more power.
We hope that this knowledge will help you in formulating you own
Rituals aswell.

Yhere is much lore surrounding the Law of Attraction. Basically, this law states - what you put out is what you get back.
You get what you think about. Which isn't quite true.
You get what you feel about. Which isn't quite true.
What you think is the manifestation of your beliefs. Beliefs are subconscious until they manifest consciously in the form of thoughts.
And if you change your thoughts into positive ones, while simultaneously having a negative belief system ... it's just pointless and, frankly, waaaaaaay too much work.
Then there's your feeliings. Feelings are conscious manifestations of emotions, just as thoughts are conscious manifestations of beliefs. Yes, it's entirely possible to have an emotion without feeling anything.
How?
By believing you will have a feeling if you think a certain thought.
Confused?
Yes, it can be. But it need not be. Change your beliefs, change your world.
Notice I said your world and not the world. The only person you have control over is yourself.
The easiest way to alter negative beliefs is with subliminal messages.
The problem with most MP3 subliminals is that the MP3 format is not conductive to subliminal messaging. MP3 is a compression format that compresses files by removing the sounds we don't consciousky hear,. And therein lies the problem. We don't consciously hear subliminal messages.
I've got around this by creating my own subliminals, with the messages at -16db which is loud enough that MP3 compression won't remove them, but is also quiet enough to bypass the conscious mind.
The first subliminal MP3 I created is at this link. The readme.txt file within the zip downnload lists all the messages. It is intended to give a positive slant to your expectations. If you listen to this three times per day for a week, I will be shocked if your life doesn't improve <3

Creation
Please be aware that this explanation of creation is just one possible explanation. You are free to agree or disagree as you feel necessary.
Kaballah tells us that existence came out of three different types of Nothing.
First there is Ain. Ain is really Nothing (the absence of anything). Ain can be described as Awareness or potentiality. Potential is Nothing without the consciousness to initiate that potentiality.
Next there's Ain Soph. Ain Soph can be described as consciousness. The consciousness is needed to initiate the potentiality. Since Ain would have been aware of this, Ain initiated the potentiality for itself to become conscious. This happened because effect can precede cause.
Finally there's Ain Soph Aur. This can be described as The One that came out of Nothing. It is when Nothing decided it was Not. This sets the stage for the first positive in existence.
Einstein tells us some important things. Among them 'E=MC2' and 'Energy can never be created nor destroyed, it can only change form.'
So, Energy always existed. Doesn't Kaballah tell us that first there was Nothing?
Yes and No. Nothing existed in the form of potentiality. Nothing both not existed and did exist, simultaneously. To explain this concept necessitates a brief foray into Quantum Physics.
Everything in the Universe is made up of molecules and atoms. The atoms are made of sub-atomic particles (photons, neutrons and electrons mainly) - called Quanta. Quanta are magical little things. They're capable of acrobatics like teleporting ... invisibility ... independence of spacetime ... duplicity (ability to be in several places at once) ... and lots of other thought provoking behavior.
Everything you see is made of Quanta.
For this article, I'd like to draw your attention to the basic Quanta property of wave/particle.
'Wave' basically means it doesn't exist, but potentially does. 'Particle' means what was previously a wave now does exist in spacetime. This only happens when the wave is observed consciously. Pretty neat!
And that, my friends, is how Creation could have happened.
Please be aware that this is the same as how God always existed and created the Universe. It's just different terminology.
