The Fine Art of Personal Alchemy
By
Lorraine Henrich
On
my seventh Christmas, Santa granted my request and gave me a magic
set. I was sorely disappointed to discover 3 styrofoam rabbits,
one poorly made hat, and a set of instructions on creating optical
illusions. Although I stopped believing in David Copperfield’s
performances on tv, I continued to search for what my heart
desired – magick that was real and life changing.
Over 30 years of life experience have passed as well as many years
of formal training and I am happy to report that magick is
available and accessible to anyone who has an intense desire to
achieve a goal. In fact life is an opportunity to create dreams
into reality and all challenges are delicious opportunities to
grow and transform! The most magnificent part of this is the fact
that we humans as a collective hold the keys to all magick we wish
to achieve.
At the simplest level humans are comprised of
the four elements of earth, water, air and fire, and we infuse
spirit as a fifth element with belief in God by whatever name you
call him and her . God is a power that exists within and without
our DNA. As physical and spiritual beings, life is to be
experienced physically and spiritually. So the ultimate personal
magick can be created with the simplest of tools and, as long as
it is infused with our heart’s belief, it can be achieved.
In fact
infusing an object with intent and desire is a powerful way to
bridge heaven and Earth. When I wish to manifest abundance in my
life I do not pull it out of a hat. Instead I begin by asking
myself, what does it mean to be truly abundant? I jot down
thoughts, ideas, and then come up with a specific request for the
type of abundance I require.
When I
am abundantly clear on my intent (our intent is our mojo), I take
a special journey to a place that usually contains the tools I
need to get my mojo going in the appropriate direction – the
Dollar store. If I am in a purist mood, I go to the health food
store for the supplies I need. Using words, blends, inscriptions
and prayers that I create with my imagination, I transform
candles, oils, herbs, trinkets, and everday household objects
into magickal tools that evoke all the abundance that my heart
desires.
And
unlike the box I received on my seventh Christmas, the
instructions are contained within my essence. All I need to do is
tap into the goddess within my soul to manifest. There is one
more hidden ingredient one can not forget when making magick that
lasts – joy!!!! So the next time I am at Walmart maybe you will
see me there. I won’t have on a hat or cape, but I will be
wearing a silly grin as I prepare to embark on yet another
incredible journey down the Convenience store aisle and then up to
Heaven.
The
series
of
lessons that are to follow are designed for an individual to
connect to the god/goddess archetypes. As you work with these
divine beings, you will personally grow.
