I am so tired of these messages that keep finding their way to the inbox stating you're a demon, or you're looking to become a vampire, or that you're the Avatar. No. Magick has it's limits. Vampires don't exist! They're the product of mythology, an the same goes to werewolves, mermaids...etc. You need to know reality and how to grasp it or you won't be fit to do magick, and you will only be faced with discourage as a result of a false spell. I don't say that demons and angels don't exist, no, they're very real, but they're often fantasizes by media such as Maximum Ride. And it is impossible to become a demon or angel. Those telling me you are such, you are lying otherwise or don't have a sense of reality and shouldn't be on SoM.
Now that those are out of the way, I want to say that Magick is real. Look around you and see what's real. Those trees outside, those plants in your garden, the air you breathe, the snow you walk on. All that is real and a component of our world. That is the very same thing you'll find in magick. Magick manipulates these natural arts, but corresponds with physics, the laws of time, and such. Magick is simply a way of stating what you want, and events set in motion by our willed energy charge the spell into nature's response back to us. It must stay within our mortal nature though. Mortals don't come back to life, so magick doesn't make it happen either. Magick is not just a component of Earth, it is also a component of us. What we already can do, is what magick can help us with a greater extension.
So guys, please stop asking for vampire spells, demon armies, werewolf transformation, and for a mermaid tail to grow, it just won't happen. You can't defy the laws of our very nature using magick (which is apart of nature) itself.

I'm sorry they failed to state it was their opinion/belief that demons & angels exist and stated it as fact instead as I know staring beliefs as fact irritate some people. Hopefully this will not turn into a ridiculous banter over opinion VS fact. Obviously some people believe in nothing, others believe in various entities, etc...
Haha. This could quickly escalate. Yes, I submit to that one. I did state it as a fact only because a whim on frustration. My apologies.
When I say demons and angels, I merely meant to refer to spirits.

ok guys... wow...
this is all opinion, and its on the false intill proven true base
vampires are people who drink human blood or animal (real)
werewolves are humans that contain conect or are allied with a wolf spirit (real- with honorable members from this site who can explain better)
angels and demons and devils i put together because my friends always argue weither or not they should be the same. now whos to say they arent? almost every culture believes in them:/ before tv internet the time before books, people had stories of them. (i say real)
now you cant turn into one though...
normal people say we arent really doing magick (normal as in everyday not sanity :P)
but we say we are, so this seems to be a pointless tug o war... accept you cant change, but whos to say stories had no meaning?
We don't go by one specific user's definition of a vampire.
A werewolf is a beast that takes characteristics of wolves.
Books state this, movies state this...it's all over media. Media has taken a large bite of our lives. You are going by traditional culture definition. It's highly uncommon to ask someone of a werewolf, by their definition, what It is, and their answer will be "a person who communes with a wolf spirit". Mayhaps it time for a vocabulary update?
