The Pyramid of Magick:
Faith is the first side of the pyramid-You need to have a firm faith in your powers and abilities to manifest your goals from your magickal workings.

Imagination is the second side of the pyramid-You must be able to keenly visualize what you are wanting to achieve through your magick.

Will is the third side of the pyramid-First you must know what you want, meaning: what you truly want...not just what you feel you need, or just desire. Referring to your will, is really reffering to you "true will"... your true desires.

The Ability to Keep Silent is the fourth and last side of the pyramid-This means something on more than one level. Firstly, it means that you must learn to be descrete about your magickal workings and who you tell because anyone can be open to discrimination and in order to avoid those certain situations it is best to take heed in this. The other aspect of its meaning is: By learning to keep silent externally and internally, it allows you be more perseptive to subtle energies and power.

Learning to Raise and Channel Power:
Tapping into your emotions is a great way to raise energy, you can do this by thinking of things in your past that were very emotional for you. You can then raise more power by chanting, breathing, singing, dancing, making sounds of rhythm and much more. Next you need to visualize your desired achievement in detail and see it as though it has already happened.When you feel that your energy is at its peak, release it where you have visualized your achievement and is has become your reality.

Try and draw your power from the Earth, Moon, or any other natural sources you wish while raising your power. Remember, if you only use what energy you possess...It will leave you fealing drained and exhausted. Remember to keep yourself as an open channel to recieve energy. Once you have raised and released your energy towards your desired goal, you must then lay down and allow yourself to relax so the excess energy is able to leave your body. It can help to hold a crystal or stone and channel the energy into it until you feel you are back to your old self again. Then take the crystal or stone outside on the ground so it can disperse the energy back again.
