How do you approach discernment in magick, especially in distinguishing genuine experiences from, for example, psychological phenomena, wishful thinking, egotism or plain coincidences (as opposed to synchronicities)? Maybe you feel discernment doesn't matter, or conversely you are a total sceptic! What are the benefits and negatives of your approach?

Not sure I believe in coincidences. I’m of the mind that you don’t pursue magic unless you have already seen that its working - and acknowledge those experiences as such. I am also very emotional and I have practiced to determine what is at work - the short answer is I can feel it. There’s a quality or a shift that happens and knowing that you stepped off or out of the earth that you see. I remember a job I had that I had lied to get - I was the Director of IT at a company, when I was way out of my league. The servers went down in the first week of the job. I had no idea how to get to the root and safely reboot them, fix them, nothing. But I sat in front of the computer screen and did exactly that. I even found the problem - what in the code was wrong. But I knew I had not done it. Whatever magic or entities - they had. I just provided the eyes and fingers. I could have crowed about my amazing talent, my excellent intuition, intellect - but I knew it wasn’t possible. I wish I could say I lived in that space of allowing and flowing every day - I don’t. But its best when I do and leave the faeries to my work.

For me controversial. I doubt all the time, of everything , even praticing, no matter how much I end up having all the confirmations, even in the concrete plans of the work.... I still think that doubting is healthy for my mental health and for not getting lost in the world of magic or letting it I think the power is mine...
