trust nature: ingest what you want to manifest by Shannon Kringen

Relax out of the trap
rest inside the gap
walking clockwise laps
lapping up the dance
rolling dice of chance
find a comfy spot
prop your back up
clear away the muck
gentle sweet smell
ginseng plants dwell
oxygen reverberating

967.51!
967.51!
are you sure about the money?
synthesizing
tangled chaos
endangered smashing
smokey see/sea
english socialized
national care
every citizen covered
ethical humane governing
no longer hovering in fear
crinkling
crumbling
creasing
ceasing
democracy
increasing diplomacy
solar panels
electric cars
worm bins win!
worshipping chard, spinach, kale
organic greens are the scene
scrambled land
handed to me
dissolve this cranium pattern
light the dark up with inner lanterns
shatter shadoobee
be a newbie
weed the garden
dropping baggage
awake to now
allow abundance
a fun dance
play with material existence
insist on…

Magic On Cruise Ships

I’m back from a week of performing on a cruise ship for a large corporation who hired it for their top performers. It’s a funny life on board. I’d perform in the evenings and have the whole day to relax as if I was a guest on board. I ate with the clients each evening so it really was as if I was there to enjoy it with a bit of magic each evening. I used to opportunity to practice and work on a couple of new tricks, I caught up with my reading and generally had a fine old time.

And at the end of it all I was paid, rather handsomely. They call this work?

Very good article.

Don’t Forget the Magic

My favourite film…

Source of Inspiration

Don’t forget the magic of life
you don’t need to figure out
the “hows.” Just do what you can
and leave some room for miracles
that come in the most unexpected
ways. Life is as easy as you let
it be…magic and all!

Great to see a young magician on his journey. Magic is real, if you believe in it.

He walked into the Tribune office and immediately began setting up a small, dark brown table in the corner with a black and blue cloth carefully placed over the top, blue side up. A tiny, brown box sat directly in the middle of the table over the cloth.He said he had “a little surprise for later.”

The young man in black sweatpants, a short-sleeved gray T-shirt and a black baseball cap that let his hair peak out from under the brim, appeared every bit his age.

 

But as soon as Jay Temaat began to talk about his career, the 17-year-old exuded confidence and a professional persona like someone well beyond their years and it makes sense why.

The new Fort Scott resident has been practicing magic for almost nine years and professionally working for the last five years traveling from coast…

Hypnotism – 5 – The Act of Hypnotizing

Hypnosis is an art form.

You’ve built your outline script for putting someone into a hypnotic trance, and now you’ve become comfortable speaking hypnotically. Let us now begin with the act of hypnosis, and what to do once someone is under. You will initially want to learn from your participant why they hope to gain from hypnosis so that you can work towards that goal. Having an end result in mind is extremely important in successful hypnosis. If you only develop a vague and general sense of what you’re going to have the subject do, hypnosis can be ineffective and unhelpful. Speak with the participant long enough so that you have a good idea of what they want, and how you’re going to lead them there. I’ll tell you more of how to do this later. First, let’s look at some components of hypnosis outlined by Roy Hunter, author of The Art of Hypnosis:…

Can You Read People’s Throughts Just by Looking at Them?

Very interesting.

ANNALS OF PSYCHOLOGY

Can you read people’s thoughts
just by looking at them?

1.

Some years ago, John Yarbrough was working patrol for the Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department. It was about two in the morning. He and his partner were in the Willowbrook section of South Central Los Angeles, and they pulled over a sports car. “Dark, nighttime, average stop,” Yarbrough recalls. “Patrol for me was like going hunting. At that time of night in the area I was working, there was a lot of criminal activity, and hardly anyone had a driver’s license. Almost everyone had something intoxicating in the car. We stopped drunk drivers all the time. You’re hunting for guns or lots of dope, or suspects wanted for major things. You look at someone and you get an instinctive reaction. And the longer you’ve been…
