That sounds absolutely like what I need.

I keep trying to approach magic with too much of my science brain. And also, I just get a little lost with most descriptions and instructions? So I'm excited for this project of yours, for sure. <3 I think the "Cartoon Magic" HHOS angle is how I can squeak this stuff into my brain finally.

@Phorm @anthracite You and I should talk about this topic sometimes, geniefox-- it sounds like we both potentially fit in the same box of "mystical rationalist" and I'd love to share some of my observations about how a magickal worldview can be useful even in a world with strictly conventional, rational metaphysical causality and no major obvious loopholes...

@zebratron2084 @anthracite

I would absolutely LOVE to discuss this with you at some point. What you describe sounds ABSOLUTELY like where I am, headspace wise, and I'd love to know your observations and tips <3

I'm still struggling with finding my "Parsons Balance", if you will.
