I don't know if this belongs here or in Chaos, but here goes....

I had an interesting experience today. I was heading to a lakefront park with quite limited parking. I was inspired from the book Instant Magick (Christopher Penczak) to try getting a parking spot. I triggered my light trance and visualized a parking space close to park entrance area, and willed for a space to be available.

I got to the park, and sure enough, every spot was taken. I drove up an noticed a space I could take -- not really a spot, but I've seen people park there. As I was parking, I realized -- right in front of me was an empty spot that I didn't even notice! (I thought it was handicapped parking.) Somebody zipped right in there.

And right then, the adjacent parking spot opened up, and I got it! How cool is that?

It just amazed me that I missed an open spot. then still got a second one, despite the lack of open spaces.

I don't have a huge background with practical magick like this -- most of my past work revolved around CM, doing light rituals, more often for their own sake than with a practical goal. So this was a pretty good experience for me today.

Anyone else have practical things that worked, that you'd like to share?
