Behold : Megatron.
I Will RIP-OPEN Ultra Magnus,
and EVERY OTHER Autobot,
UNTIL The Matrix has BEEN Destroyed.
To Cybertron!
"Most of the pitfalls of Mag!c can be avoided by paying attention to a few pointers –
Maintain a cynical sense of humor; this is your ultimate number one shield and weapon as a Mag!cian and is where your Ape comes into its own. Learn to TAKE THE PISS. Ruthlessly.
Relentlessly question and/or interrogate any so-called “beliefs”, including, and especially your own, and those of people you regard as experts or role models. Expose yourself to opinions and ideas that you do not share and develop a high-altitude kaleidoscopic view of this multi-faceted, contradictory, prismatic thing we call reality. Having said that, keep in mind that not all ideas are of equal value and practice discrimination.
Examine as many alternate ways to explain your experience as you can.
Learn to practice Mercy but never expect it in return. Judge not lest ye be Judged. Be Strong and Be Kind.
Treat yourself as prey; stalk yourself. Study your weak spots, your habits and patterns, and use the knowledge you gain to successfully hunt, kill and feast upon the parts of yourself that hold you back, or alternatively to tame and make allies of those same elements.
Keep your feet on The Ground and your roots in the material, workaday world (the “Malkuth” of the Qabalists). Never forget to pay the bills, feed your lovely pets, do the shopping, or visit your gran in the hospice with a card. Also perform Mag!cal devotions attendant to each of these acts so that they have an effect in the metaphorical spheres above Malkuth.
If you begin to suspect you are the singular, special Messiah or Chosen One, remind yourself that SO IS EVERYONE ELSE.
Be inspired by and always learn from others where you can but don’t fetishize charismatic personalities, fall for guru narcissists, or follow leaders.
And try not to become them."
