Many years ago in San Diego one of my students, who had been coming to classes for about a year, asked, "When are we going to start doing real magic?" "Tell me," I asked, "a year ago would you have thought reading tarot and doing healing and seeing auras were 'real magic'?" "Yes, but now I know how to do it." I just looked at her, smiling. "You mean it's all like that?" she wailed. "You mean all of it is just knowing how to do it?" I shrugged and let her stew for a few moments, then said, "There's another way to look at it." I don't know if she ever really got it — the notion of everything being magic if only we open our eyes to see — but that kind of confusion is what comes of people thinking they are not magical people, when in fact we all are.
