Dear RM, >> OK, well this is not about my social life it's about the magick. Why did the magick manifest after I switched my attention to something else? Was the timing just a coincidence or is this some property of the Mental Plane? I'd be grateful for any insights you folks would care to share. << Because you are inserting a mental ideation into the Akasha, it takes *time* with this form of magic for the Akashic/mental effect to manifest itself materially. As you experiment, you will discover how much time it takes for an ideation to descend through the layers of density. How powerful your will is and how focused your mind is, both impact the time lag. My best to you, :) Rawn Clark 02 Jan 2003 rawnclark@... rawn@... http://www.ABardonCompanion.com http://groups.yahoo.com/group/BardonPraxis
