You’ve heard of applied science, well how about applied Magick.
The personal computer is just a tool after all, so in theory you
should be able to apply the ancient traditions to the modern
ways. Here are a few ways that I think you can use your PC to
practice metaphysics. The Gods, Goddesses and energies that
oversee the running of you computer include Mercury (Hermes) the
God of Communication, Ariadne (the Weaver), the Archangel
Gabriel (the Angel of Illumination, Vachu (the Hindu Goddess of
Mystic Speech) or Chango, the God of Thunderbolts. If you are
having computer problems light a red and blue candle to honour
Mercury (for server and email problems), a purple candle to
honour Ariadne (for site problems), Temple or Lotus incense to
access Vachu (who can help with forwarding files), a yellow
candle to access the wisdom of the Archangel Gabriel (to figure
out how to get a program running) or a red candle to honour
Chango (for problems with electricity). When sending a resume or
an important file …you can practice a bit of magic by creating a
symbol for yourself to hide somewhere in the file or in the
email. This symbol can represent success to you or prosperity.
For instance $ would be an obvious one. Try creating, with a
series of letters, numbers or symbols that are significant to
you –a sigil that is attached to your emails. It is easy to
create a sigil. Take a phrase such as “Money Come To Me” and
shorten it to “MCTM” or “mctm” and put it in your tag before you
send an important document. There are many sites on the web that
teach you how to make a more obscure sigil using numbers and
letters- just type the word sigil into your search engine. Once
you create the sigil, blow it up into 24 point on your computer
and “charge it’ by focusing your intent onto the symbol. Keep
the master sigil in a file and attach a 9-point version to the
bottom of files or emails. Has someone sent you a nasty email?
Don’t respond with words. Try this version of a reversal spell.
Send the email back to them nine times. If nine times seems too
much, send it back three times. This follows the rule of sending
back bad energy to its sender three times three times three.
After reading their own words, nine times, this may cause the
sender to rethink their malevolence. Also effective, is sending
the sender back a BLANK email. Press reply, erase all text and
charge the blank screen with what you want to say. Send it. The
person who sent you the bad email in the first place will
probably react with confusion and some fear. NOBODY likes to
open a blank email. The blank email has a way of clearing the
problem. You can use the naming and retrieving of files, to
bring more luck, prosperity and love in your life. To do this
you need to create a folder and fill it with files that contain
one word such as LOVE, MONEY, and LUCK. Inside each of these
files put a list of words that relate to your goal … for
instance in the file marked money write things such as Quick
Cash, Relief From Debt, Prosperity, New Car or what ever you
desire. Put these files on your desktop, so each time you start
up your computer, you are retrieving the magical energy of the
words inside the files. Turn your mouse into a Magick Mouse by
storing it overnight inside a box or a “sleeping bag” that
contains a coin, a sprig of rosemary, and a paper heart. There
is an old saying that a “mouse in the house brings luck to the
house. ‘ Every time you click your mouse, the energies
represented by what you have stored in its “sleeping bag” is
said to infuse your life with lucky energy. Another good way to
manifest magic is to use your screen saver. Try to choose
imagery that supports your magickal intent… for instance, images
of waterfalls and running water symbolize money, images of
flowers represent love and images of clouds and sun represent
the acquisition of experience and wisdom. Never underestimate
the power of a password either. When you choose login names or
passwords, try and choose names that attract positive energy.
For instance the password name “fatdope” might just attract more
fat dopes into your sphere. Remember the cosmic principle of
“like attracts like.” Good times to do computer magic would be
noon or on a Sunday, which are times influenced by the Sun,
during the signs of Aquarius, Gemini or Libra which all relate
to communication and are ruled by the planet Mercury.
