One thing I always tell people about this course is not to rush into it too soon. Remember you are going to "abstain" from all tools for 6 weeks and only work with pure principle.
No deities, no angels, no talismans, no perfumes, no candles....
It's an amazing way to really dig deep and strengthen your power if done at the right time in your development, but if you try it too soon, it can be really challenging.
It's challenging enough to do this course even when you ARE ready for it.
So when you do it, just know you will be purging your Craft of all superstition, and then can return to your tools with a freshness that can bring new power and fortitude to your craft.
But if you haven't even built a relationship with magical tools and symbols very much, then it's probably too soon to take this course.
Consult your own inner guide. You'll know when the time is right!
This came at the right time for me. I'm travelling to stay with my parents 6 weeks (who do not know my spiritual orientation...or that I've ever had one at all for that matter) and so rather than take any my tools or altar stuff with me, I'm going to do this.
If feels a little maybe slightly ambitious, as I've just done a banishing spell to quit smoking, and will continue doing flips until I travel. Then when I get home, my spell will be healthy organs/lung capacity/clear voice (there are a lot of benefits from quitting smoking and I'm not sure which one to focus on for the spell. Maybe lungs cause it's the most obvious?)
I already was in abstract principle land I think, perhaps from the very beginning. I've always loved philosophy and the contemplation part of this looks super fun to me! And so excited to see what rolls out...looks really exciting with the astral projection and dream work. So cool. Thanks for releasing this Ariel.
Actually I do have a question about my spell - should I have a picture of real, healthy lungs, if healthy lungs is what I'm going to do? Or can I use a more artful photo that gives me a nice feeling? The real lungs are a bit icky but I get if looking at real lungs might be more effective.
So I've been thinking about this Ariel, and have been trying to dive deeper into the feeling, but because of that started wondering if I'm doing a spell for the right thing. I find to get excited about healthy lungs, I have to think about a lot of other stuff, like a long life/having as long as possible to do my soul's work, physical endurance, etc and then I'm not sure why I'm not doing a spell for one of those things. Flipping "quitting smoking" to it's positive has been challenging because I know why I don't want to smoke anymore, but I do find it difficult to get really excited about the idea of healthy lungs unless I try to draw on the feelings from the other things I mentioned. My words are Health, Strength, Freedom. And those work well. I've been doing this spell since Sunday now. While I am managing to conjure a feeling I am doubting whether it's the happiest flip I could come up with for quitting smoking? Would appreciate some advice.
Loving the contemplation time...really interesting thoughts coming from that! Cannot wait to see what the rest of advancing your craft holds. So exciting.✨ ❤️✨

I think using that which gives you the best feeling is what's most important.
