Is the Law of Attraction magic?

Is the Law of Attraction Magic?- how the Law of Attraction it’s very similar to casting spells!

 

It only seems appropriate that at this time of year, I write an article linking self-improvement-related content with my favorite holiday: Halloween. I’ve recently asked myself, “Is the Law of Attraction Magic?” I believe they both share a lot of similarities as you’ll discover in this article.

Although the witches that I will be talking about in this post look nothing like the stereotypical: green-faced, pointy wart-covered nosed witches that you see in old children’s tales…

These witches look and act much like you and me! Okay, minus the power of flight.

Being a “witchy” person myself, Witchcraft is what got me into self-improvement in the first place. It all started with learning how to hone my inner power and confidence in order to manifest what I wanted in life. This is one of the many things that modern witchcraft teaches us: to step up and be the AMAZING humans that we are!

In this article, I will be briefly covering these topics:

• What is the Law of Attraction?
• What does it mean to be a witch in modern society?
• Do things like magic and talismans really work?
• A few ways the Law of Attraction goes hand-in-hand with witchcraft

What is the Law of Attraction?

I personally abide by the Law of Assumption more than the Law of Attraction which I will talk about in a future article. Since this isn’t an article about the Law of Attraction itself, I will make this short, sweet, and to the point.

The Law of Attraction is a theory that our thoughts are a form of energy. If you have positive thoughts, you will attract and manifest positive things. However, if you have negative thoughts, you will attract negativity into your life.

Manifesting your dreams via the Law of Attraction requires careful intent, action, and a period of surrender. In short, this means:

1. Be intent on exactly what it is you want. Use the 5 senses: taste, touch, sound, smell, and sight to manifest whatever you desire. Be as descriptive as possible!
2. Take actionable steps to accomplish whatever dream or goal you are wishing to manifest.
3. Let it go and let the Universe take over. Be thankful for what you have in the present while maintaining a steady, high vibration.

Some of the Laws that the Law of Attraction abides by are as follows:

• Like attracts like: Meaning that whether we realize it or not, we are subconsciously attracting negativity or positivity based upon the energy that we give off. Which is why it’s important to do things that make you happy and vibrate at a high frequency according to the Law Of Attraction.
• Nature abhors a vacuum: This means that when you remove negative things from your life, you make space for positive change to occur.
• The present is always perfect: There may be things to be sad and upset about if we look for them, but the goal is to look past those negative aspects, change whatever we can control, and surrender to the remaining circumstances.

Please note I am not saying that I believe in every aspect of the Law of Attraction. While I do abide by certain aspects, I’ve come to create my own personal set of laws containing bits and pieces from both the Law of Assumption and the Law of Attraction!

What does it mean to be a witch in modern society?

To me, being a witch is all about embracing the power that is inside of each of us. It’s also about welcoming your confidence and courage into your life in order to make your dreams a reality.

Along with a feeling of empowerment comes the confidence and independence you need in order to take the world by storm and never settle for less.

Being a witch also means standing up for what is right and refusing to be silenced!

Witchcraft can be a healthy way to work through your big emotions! Some examples include performing a spell or sitting around a bonfire with your coven, having heart to heart talks about your thoughts and feelings. I believe this is a healthy way of getting all of those negative emotions out in the open so they don’t have time to fester and become something much worse.

I mean, there ARE worse alternatives than putting a hex on your ex am I right?!

Do things like magic spells and talismans really work?

There are many different opinions/answers to this question. However, I personally believe that magic is whatever you make it and if you believe it works, then it DOES work for you. Simple as that! (This is a prime example of the Law of Assumption! If you assume something is true for you, then it simply is!)

For those who are unfamiliar with what a talisman is: A talisman is a lucky charm such as a stone or ring, sometimes enscribed that you carry around for good luck and to ward off negative energies, emotions, and situations.

Some may not see the logic in performing magical spells but they may see the logical side of holding a crystal (talisman) in their pocket to help aid off anxiety and negative vibes.

The talisman/stone itself may not necessarily harness any magical powers, but it is simply a reminder to ground yourself and stay calm in not-so-pleasant situations. This grants you the feeling of empowerment!

What do the Law of Attraction and Witchcraft have in common?

Here are a few ways I feel that the Law of Attraction goes hand-in-hand with Witchcraft:

• The chanting of positive affirmations or mantras of the things you wish to manifest.
• Using the power of visualization: use your imagination to picture the things you want to bring into your existence very vividly.
• Writing down the dreams and goals you want to make reality into a visualization journal, or in witches’ instances, a spellbook, or manifeststion journal.
• “If you want it, you have to let yourself have it.” A very famous line from the movie, “Halloweentown,” and a rule to live by in real life. It means to get out of your own way and let yourself have the best in life!
• Using any spices, crystals, colors, etc., to aid in the power of your spells goes hand in hand with the LOA, in that certain items are supposed to help attract specific elements into one’s life.

So, is the Law of Attraction Magic? I would have to say yes it is in a way!
