To: alt.magick.tyagi,alt.magick,alt.pagan.magick From: nagasivaSubject: Mentalist Magery Date: Wed, 03 Dec 2003 21:14:31 GMT 50031203 vii om justintonation@hotmail.com (Justin): # I have identified my latent magical talents to be of # the spellcaster type known as a mage (roughly defined # as a person that affects the minds of people and animals # through magic.) compare: illusionist mentalist stage magician psychotherapist Neurolinguistic Programminig (NLP, Bandler+) # I am looking for internet sites or books that are # devoted to learning the mages typical skills. affecting minds by means of magic could take several forms. here are some that occur to me: a) persuasion 'Intranquility' spells are a prime example here. they persuade or torment for the purpose of the mage. 'Compelling' are another, less corrosive spell type (persuading to follow through on some previously-agreed arrangements). in general these pertain to manipulating the will or volition of the spell target, trying to get them to move in the direction desired by the spellcaster. b) healing or performance-enhancement less overt mind-influence, though it may include such thing, pacification, or psychologically stabilizing the spell target, or helping them to think more clearly. summoning wisdom in a decision-making circumstance, or facility with recall and logic during a test come to mind. c) mysticism communicating satori, enlightenment, or some other fabulous mystical condition by virtue of sustained or strategic intersection, this is less commonly a part of magical spells than a participated conferment through initiation. rituals, regular rites, and occult Adventures are means by which mages approach this on an individual level, whereas intersection seem more often to take abstract methods lying in the depths of arcane institutions and secret power words (quasi-masonic, etc.). nagasiva
