Magical Principles

1. Magic is natural.
2. Harm none—not even yourself—through its use.
3. Magic requires effort. You will receive what you put into it.
4. Magic is not usually instantaneous. Spells require time to
be effective.
5. Magic should not be performed for pay.
6. Magic should never be used in jest or to inflate your ego.
7. Magic can be worked for your own gain, but only if it harms none.
8. Magic is a divine act.
9. Magic can be used for defense but should never be used for attack.
10. Magic is knowledge—not only of its way and laws, but also of its
effectiveness. Do not believe that magic works—know it!
11. Magic is love. All magic should be performed out of love. The
moment anger or hatred tinges your magic you have crossed the
border into a dangerous world, one that will ultimately consume you.
