Instead I just couldn’t resist to pack in all about the sorceress as harmonious counterpart and improtant energetic dynamics behind Real Magic. And because sorcery and spellwork is connected to words and we are in gemini season, you will also learn the story of bard and prophet Taliesin, where his magic came from and how you can harness the archetypal power of the mercurial messenger to hone your focus and clarify your vision for potent practical magic.

What is Magic?

Magic is the science and art of causing changes in consciousness in conformity with will - Dion Fortune

The month of gemini, my birth month (I’m born on summer solstice) and the month of creativity. Gemini is ruled by mercury and is known as the communicator, the messenger, the colourful butterfly. Hence why I linked this month with the magician and the sorceress and the ability to enchant.

Like inspire is a word that connects to breath (and the air sign that gemini is), so does enchantment! It means chanting, singing and using our voice to invoke. When we draw from our source and the elemental source of nature, are inspired and breathe our intention into our rituals and then further allow our words as spells to weave thought into word and word into action. With the force of focus and concentration that is a mercurial strength. When cultivated in a world of distraction, dissociation and shorter attention spans, this is Real Magic.
