What Do You Use Magic For? Options

Magic: the art of producing a desired effect or result through the use of incantation or various other techniques that presumably assure human control of supernatural agencies or the forces of nature

In it's definition magic has endless possibilities....

does it?

For some strange reason. when i am thinking up "Incantation" or "various other techniques" I have trouble thinking up what to do.

"what exactly is the problem i'm facing now? How do i solve it?" are questions i ask,

but magic doesn't seem to come up as an answer often.

and when it does, i use my trusty tarrot deck and i get BAD RESULTS
BAD BAD BAD RESULTS

so the magic i do always ends up being pure white magic since everything else seems it would go bad.

that's pretty limited if you ask me.

I use magic for several things really - guidance, grounding myself, communication with other people and spirits, creative inspiration, self improvement, and understanding the world.

I'm also currently using it to explore an idea I've had in my head for quite a while - no one knows exactly where tarot cards come from, but one of the stories is that they came from Thoth, who also in one story gave mankind the gift of the writing and in another story created everything by uttering its name. My idea is that if there is any truth to these stories, then it could be that the tarot and the archetypes within it is a kind of blueprint of all of existence. I know that even if this IS true I most likely will never be able to comprehend it all, but I'm still exploring the idea anyway. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif)
