Affirmations in Magick (Pagan Blog Project #1)

Affirmations can be a powerful tool; using affirmations is the art of bringing change into our life by changing the way we think or believe. They are most commonly used for self improvement. 


Affirmations are statements that we speak, conscious positive statements, spoken in the present tense, and combined with the power of belief and your convictions. By practicing affirmations you can WILL positive change into your life. When you make an affirmation, you are making a declaration to the Universe and the Powers that Be. 


I'm sure many of us has heard the phase, "As Within, So Without" this is the secret/tool to manifestation. You are the one that controls what you attract in your life... what dwells within will attract more of the same. You make the choice; do you want to attract positive things in your life, or negative? 


Your thoughts and your words have power; they determine what energies you put out into the Universe, and which energies you will attract in return. By reprogramming yourself to think positive and focus on the positive, and to BELIEVE with all of your being and putting all your conviction into those thoughts, you will attract more positive into your life, and this my friends, is Magick.


What do you suppose the results would be if you used these affirmations in your magickal workings?  Affirmations are great for Candle Magick, Folk Magick, even a "Dream Board" attraction spell, or simply use affirmations during meditation or chanting; affirmations are easy and can be used a many ways.
