Regular reminder that MAGICK IS REAL

Magick is real and you can be a wizard. Don't forget that. Don't let them take it from you. Figure out what you are. •⍼

Greetings! We here at Alchemy Arts Inc. (Chicago's finest occult store) have decided to post answers to some common questions. It seems appropriate for the first question to be this:

Is magick real? Does it work?

Let us begin by stating that we spell ‘magick’ with a K to distinguish it from stage magic – the stuff onstage with rabbits in hats and card tricks.

It is not uncommon for someone who is Brand New to All This to approach our counter with a skeptical smile and ask, ‘Is magick real? Does it work?’ Well, yes and yes. With conditions.

Magick is similar to prayer, but more focused, and it’s active, not passive. It’s prayer assisted by your actions, it’s not making a request and then sitting back and waiting. It’s intention, will, belief. It’s creating energy. What you get out of it depends on how much you put into it. Your intention is what results you want from the spell; your will feeds it and gives it energy. It’s also about your attitude – do you believe it’ll work? If you don’t really believe it will work, or if you have doubts, then chances are good it won’t.

Also, you have to do your part to help it work. If you do a spell to find a job, you still need to submit applications and go to interviews. If you do a spell for love, you still need to go places and meet people. You need to do what you can to make conditions favorable for the spell to work. This is what we mean by magick being active, not passive.

It’s like the old joke where the man prays every day to win the lottery, but it never happens. He keeps praying more and more fervently, until one day, a voice booms down from the heavens: ‘Meet me halfway, buy a ticket!’ You need to meet the magick halfway. It might take some practice, and it’ll definitely take some work and concentration, but the results are worth it.

Good luck, and Blessings!

Houdini thoughts

Obviously Harry Houdini who is labeled as “an escape artist, illusionist, and stunt performer, noted for his escape acts.”

Harry Houdini was his stage name. This guys real name was Erik Weisz.

Now don’t ask me why or how but the lyric came to me and it gave me a thought i had to get out.

“White America, Little Eric looks just like this.” From White America (5/26/2002 Track 2 of the Eminem Show)

Harry Houdini escaped a straight jacket. Those are normally worn in asylums. Which have either been named something that sounds less scary to the public or their buildings are oddly destroyed and/or left creepily abandoned like they are just waiting to use these for future endeavors when shit hits the fan, so no America I will not be a fan when that happens.

The tangent is necessary for those who don’t like to read, sorry I’m descriptive.

I now know not to assume everyone has the same music taste. If you don’t know the band, you really shouldn’t wear the shirt, fuck you could honestly know one song from that artist rather than being the kid that is wearing a hair band shirt because it looked cool from forever 21 and when they were asked if they liked an artists music when it was playing she was wearing the shirt when she said no. That was bold of me. I have learned to use Spotify on demand in the store to make sure i have heard the song before i make the purchase.

Thats a big part of the problem we have as a country in itself because music originated in the Bible just like we did, so if people are gonna stand up for religion the same thing should be happening for music. Which includes its artists, instead of protecting them the industry uses them to their gain like chess pieces on a board actively protecting their Queen until they can’t fight anymore.

Anywho. For those who don’t know Hardy released a song and music video titled Psycho. Excellent all around if you haven’t streamed them, I highly suggest it! In the video Hardy is seen wearing a straight jacket. I feel that even if there is no true connection between Eminems song and Hardys video, I truly believe there is a more poetically tragic yet empowering meaning behind these two both being released this year.

All of these artists are essentially strapped into a straight jacket the day they get a record deal. People make jokes about some celebrities going missing and then reappearing a little bit differently, imagine how you would feel if you stepped out of line and the industry tightened that jacket of yours. If you dig deeper into it, these artists are resisting, they are fighting back from within. What if the straight jacket they are busting out of is a disguise? A mask? An alter ego? Are you going to be there to help them out of the jacket and help them on their mission for freedom and peace with music for everyone? Or are you gonna turn your nose up because they aren’t what they appeared to be? Do you judge a book by its cover before you read it? (Shame on you if you said yes, you’re missing so many stories that are waiting to be told.) these artists are tired of being locked away from who they truly are just to keep continuing to prove that the its the industry standards or bust. No it’s not that way at all. If you step back in time and look at the progression of music and how it has transformed of course it is gonna sound different, until you listen to the meaning behind it and realize that this is the movement that has been passed down through generations. The ones considered the greats passed the torch just like they do at the Olympics. And it’s up to these artists to continue to break the chain and further the movement along. Back to the point originally, little Eric looks just like this. Eric is one of the most commonly used names, therefore the celebrities are just little Erics and Ericas. They couldn’t use Barbie and Ken because then the world would actually be aware of what they are spending their money on. What’s the movement called you asked? The hell if i know, I just know its happening and its badass to finally be woken up and see that there are real superhero’s out there working it from the inside. It’s up to us as the fans to not pay into the drama. Can’t like we grow up and graduate but be really cool about it and just be happy? I know it really is too much to ask for us at the moment but I’m gonna table that idea because it sounds really freaking cool.

Continuing on…

Okay oddly enough after viewing Wikipedia for a better view of the straight jacket I am immediately greeted with an image of the Posey straitjacket (dire straits? Future Savannah question.) the Posey is a straight jacket that hog ties you as well. this is also a future me research question but oh my god it looks like how the little boys from the West Memphis Three were found. 5/5/1993 three 8 year old boys were reported missing in West Memphis, Arkansas. And sadly they were found in a Mindy creek near a major drain canal. The boys were naked and hogtied, and one of them was also mutilated. This case is devastating. It is also the one of two cases that got me into true crime and they both are music related. Yeah sadly enough three little boys died, and three older boys lives were ruined because they dressed a little different, had a learning disability that everyone ignored, and they liked metal music. This case was a dumpster fire and has only gotten worse, it’s with deep hope that the Arkansas PD gets their shit better together.

If Eminem and Hardy didn’t know of that connection or maybe they like true crime too, cool beans. But if i was a betting person I would say that yes yes they did know that, because they know that Jessie Misskelley Jr, Damien Echols, and Jason Baldwin were failed by the judicial system, and that they metal/rock/hair bands (this was a rough time for metal fans i am sure) were affected negatively in the media. Almost like the news headlines of a kid playing a video game and then running down the road naked with his neighbors yard goblin, then proceeding to throw the goblin into someone’s front window. And when he gets arrested and is asked why they fuck he just did that he simply explains that “the video game did it, why can’t I?” Probably because things come with disclaimers that say “don’t try this at home.” Or was that a law that was put into place to create a safety blanket of sorts?

Tupac said that we wouldn’t have peace until we have peace on the streets. Well you see the whole East West thing. Yeah that was created by the media to cause an increase in record sales therefore to make them more money and then tarnish the musicians reputations in the process. But hey big brother up there only cares about him and himself and those few that help make sure he never slips from his thrown. btw no one likes that guy in case you didn’t know. The industry and the media didn’t care about how the beef they were creating became physical. They were all wearing armor while you have these talented musicians on your front line like soldiers on a cold dark day in WW2.

Tupac was right, there wont be peace until we create the peace. The ones opposing the peace are the ones that don’t know how to continue to spread the message. Remember back in the day when you would buy a CD and then read the inner cover to read the lyrics or hang the Jonas Brother proudly on your wall? Yeah well we need to start doing that again, okay you don’t have to hang the poster but I might. Music is poetry and stories with a beat. These artists are writing you messages. Read them and tell everyone about it!

Stay weird everyone
