>>Your definition of magick is very important to determining whether it exists and is 'real'.

That isn't a very good definition of magick, but let's go with it.

I've done that though. Multiple times. I still have the proof. Having proof isn't enough though. I don't have the power, or even necessarily the desire, to spread that proof to the massive to prove magick (by your definition is real).

What have I proven?

1) That all minds are connected at a deep level through symbols, and that these symbols are probably a life form or essence or beings of some sort.
a) How did I prove this? I drew an automatic drawing of a spirit on a vine. Nothing particularly noteworthy for me. I do it all the time. Then I ordered a more or less completely unknown book by an underground occultist (who is now quite well-known, but this was like 15 years ago) which I had never seen before nor even looked inside. When I got the book, the author's wife (who is an artistic witch) drew an automatic drawing that was almost *exactly* the same as the spirit I drew on the vine. This was a complex drawing... there was no 'coincidence' here. It was too complex to realistically be drawn by two people who did not know each other and who had never seen each other's pictures. I still have both pictures. They are still the SAME automatic drawing drawn by two people who had never met nor seen each other's automatic images.

2) That the future can be predicted (and perhaps even created) by automatic drawings.
a) How did I prove this? On dozens of occasions I have created automatic drawings of things that then happened a few hours, days, weeks, or months later.

what is a definition of magick in your opinion?
human

Symbolic mental alchemy in an analogical sense. Personally, the reason I haven't made billions of dollars using magic is because my magic tends to rely on 'channeling'. I don't pick my magic, my magic picks me. It's more powerful this way, but it's not very controllable. The few times I have made money with magick it always comes with an equal and balanced price of some sort. Money is not free, even when it is 'freely' given by the Universe. Money costs, and the payment comes in some form or another. Magic tends to be very 'balanced', even the most chaotic magick balances itself eventually.
