The power of visualisationOK confession time.
I once worked for a TV company in the East End of London.
I had a assistant manger on my back a lot for anything he could invent to have a moan about.
I have always realised the power of the mind even when young and I knew that this guy had a serious wheat allergy.
One night when I was particularly angry with him I began to visualise him drowning in a huge vat of freshly milled flour.
I went to work on the Monday morning and He was absent from the office.
Apparently he had been to a party and even knowing that he had this allergy he decided to eat a roll and was now in hospital quiet unwell.
At the time I thought "good" now of course I can see the error of my ways.
The thing is that it may have been coincidence, in which case my life has been one long series of coincidences or it was the visualisation.
I leaned afterword that he had been really seriously ill and they thought he might even die.
The moral of the story I guess is "watch what you think" your thoughts really are living things.
Or, choose your world and imagine it all of the time. You may just change things for your self.

Some may call it "error of their ways" others may call it protecting and defending yourself.
If somebody is going out of their way to give you a hard time or make your life miserable isn't the right thing to do to either do it back or prevent them from doing it?
I always find it astonishing that 'Catholic guilt' can extend beyond the Catholics.

I learnt at a very young age that thoughts are living things. One of the first books I read was' Where There's A Will.'by Maurice Barbanell.
Funny ,coincidence,or what,I have only this last few minutes, been visualising,doing 'Light Work ' on the planet.
imo,all healing is visualisation,as so with; for lack of a better word -cursing people.

I think you might find that there is a difference between guilt and seeing with experience the error of your ways.
It is called learning from experience or growing up if you wish to bring it to its lowest denominator.
There are other ways to respond to a difficult situation that do not require petulance and malice.
Having said that I know that given certain circumstances good old petulance and malice would serve me well.
The things I feel guilty about are the things that I have not done, not the things that I have.
Sloth has no excuse whereas uneducated action can be excused until the required amount of understanding is gained. Then there is no excuse.

Maybe I'm immature but if someone is coming at me with a big stick I will do anything I can to stop them hitting me with that stick.
Whether that stick is real or not makes not a jot of difference.

As would anyone Raymond.
I don't think you are immature, you are a witch.
You must have met other witches.
If they didn't have that vengeful streak coupled that urge to help and heal
then they would be pretty shite witches.
Thing is, will they be witches of the traditional mould for ever, or will they try to evolve.

Some do, some don't. And there's nothing wrong with it if they don't.
What your original post in this thread describes is a spell. Forget all the bells and whistles that go along with a magickal working, all the important stuff takes place inside the head.
As for evolving in the craft, anyone can be taught how to be a Witch. The basic ABC's of what to do and when to do it. To be a good Witch, or should I say 'effective' Witch, comes with time and experience. It can't be bought or taught.
So to evolve as a Witch, or anything really, is just a matter of time and learning through experience.

Very true.
I suppose to me the interesting and valuable part of all this is what you discover about yourself and your relationship with the world around you and your inner world.
