Yesterday’s clue led Tansy True to the crumbling Von Franz Building, hours before the bulldozers arrived. The arrival of the demolition crew might’ve signaled a dead end—but Tansy never gives up that easily.
A single piece of parchment fluttered from a window as she dashed down the alley. Coincidence or message??
Psst…Don’t forget to grab your Real Magic Mega Bundle—my entire shop for only $99—before it get bulldozed off the map.
And now, let’s find out what that parchment said…
The Third Clue
Case File #003: Astral Interference
Location: Alley behind the Von Franz Building; parchment ejected from thirteenth-story window
Tansy’s Notes: Handwritten margin note reads: “Recovered via automatic writing after waking from a lucid dream.” No initials, no signature. Was the parchment’s appearance mere coincidence…or is someone sending a message?
Excerpt
Everything we experience in the world of the five senses has a corollary on the astral plane. But the astral is a highly mutable realm where thought and intention can radically alter an energy’s form or trajectory.
Without a clear focus, it’s far too easy for the energy to flow into other states and forms.
By getting clear on what you want, you create, in essence, a container on the astral for relevant energies to gather and cohere. (And if this sounds a lot like casting a magic circle in the physical realm, you’ve read my mind!)
Tansy’s Notes, Part 2:
This reminds me of a notebook I found, hidden behind a roadside altar just outside Marfa, Texas, back in 2009.
Excerpt
Chaos magician Peter J. Carroll pinpoints a useful sweet spot by framing magic in terms of probabilities. If you’re casting a spell to turn your house into a chicken, the likelihood of that happening without magic is zero, right? So, even with magic, that’s a tough nut to crack.
On the other hand, the likelihood that you can lift your arm in the air, assuming you have mobility in that arm, is closer to 100%. Why expend magical effort when you can just…move your arm?
You’re looking for something in the 50% to 70% probability range. Not so impossible that you’d need an entire cosmos’ worth of energy to shift the needle and not so done-deal that you’re wasting magical effort where it isn’t needed.
“Half of the skill in magick consists of identifying probabilities worth enhancing.” Peter J. Carroll
