The Veiled Wonder: Rediscovering True Magic in the Natural Order
A Reflective Exploration for Thoughtful Seekers
Introduction: Contextualizing the Loss of Belief in Magic
You’re missing the magic. The true magic has been discredited by the commodified magic, the fake magic, the pop-magic, the dark magic, on and on and on. At first one listens to the nonsense, drawn by its promises of a full and prosperous life and love and power, and naturally, you find yourself fascinated with it, enticed and beguiled by it. But alas, after a time you stop believing because none of its promises ever came to fruition. Time passes, and after a few more of these experiences, you no longer believe that there is any such thing as magic at all. Then inevitably you can no longer see or experience the real magic that has always been there, and does indeed permeate every aspect of our lives.
