Questions and clients.

I received today an e-mail with some interesting questions, about the magical drawings that I offered before.
"With the drawing that you did with attracting the opposite sex would it work with trying to attract a Wealthy Woman into your life? or would you happen to know any tips that I can make this happen for me? "

My answer was : 



"That is a good question.
The drawing I mentioned is just an average spell to make a person get laid more often. If you used it you would be perceived as being more handsome and attractive than other people and would also boost your confidence in this type of situations.

Attracting a wealthy woman is something very easy to do. 
However besides being wealthy there are at least two other things to consider :
1 - Attracting a wealthy woman that wouldn't use her wealth to try to dominate you. 
2 - Attracting a woman that you could feel  attracted to. I'm sure that you don't want to throw up after having sex, do you ?
So, a proper working would have to consider multiple factors, that only you can specify.
If you hire someone to do that kind of working you have to be absolutely honest. Otherwise you may receive exactly what you paid for, and find yourself miserable about it."



One other thing that we as sorcerers/magicians must take into account is if the client is prepared to deal with the change. If the client is not prepared, and we don't warn him/her that CHANGE is about to happen the result may be less than pleasant.
A friend (and teacher of mine), has made an amulet to a lady to help her with love, money and protection. She was also very eager to be a mother

A few days later she found a new love in her life.The LOVE.  The problem was that she didn't end up immediately with the man she was with. She got pregnant. Guess who's the father ?

Welcome to the Revolution II

I have been asked several questions about my previous post.
I'll try  to answer them here.

Is your idea just to help magicians?
Hell NO. And yes. Most people, in spite of  previous training, will be helped.  If people do that ritual as explained they will perform a magical act and they may even become serious magicians.

Isn't that ritual too dificult ?
Huh ? People just have to perform it as indicated.

But it is an evocation of a GOD ! What makes you think that people will be able to do it ?
Good Question.
I'm quite sure that the first few times that most people do it they will be clumsy. 
However for those that do it seriously some things will help. The structure of the ritual resonates not only with Chinese Gods but also with Chinese Spirits. The fact that there are Chinese migrants all over the world creates a very high probability of the ritual attracting the attention of Chinese Ancestor spirits, and those are always a conection to the Chinese Gods.
Furthermore the ritual is build in series of 3s. If a person does it seriously, even if doesn't have any previous training, by the 9th or 10th time that does it it will perform it rather well. By then just the combination of focus and the heightened emotional state of the person will be enough to stir the curiosity of the Gods.

What the bleep  is that thing ? Heightned emotional state?
Have you ever talked in public to a lot of people? Or have you ever performed on stage ? The feeling of doing ritual is very similar, only more intense. That is what I call heightned emotional state.By itself is not enough, but combined with focus it is a major tool of the magician or magician wannabe.

Do you REALLY think that Tsay Shen Yeh will bother to answer and to help people ?
Well, I can not answer for him but he usually does. Besides, remember that I used the word revolution. If one or two people will do it  it is one thing, but if 20, 30, 400 or 5000 people do it, it is very different. The more people do it, the greater the sense of urgency that will be broadcasted to the Gods and Spirits

Can I use that ritual to heal someone ?
Sure. But remember to select a Chinese God of Health/Healing.

And will that God remove the health from other people to heal me or the person I want to heal ?
Nope. The Gods won't vamp other people to heal you, unless they have very good reasons to do so

Now... Seriously... You don't believe in this, do you.?  I mean, not REALLY.
Yes. I do.

Welcome to the revolution.

WELCOME TO THE REVOLUTION

The Portuguese government  has attacked it's people with the biggest increase in taxes in more than a hundred years.


The  result will be widespread poverty, hunger, revolt and mayhem.


But the average person can't do anything., and will be steamrolled by the circumstances.

Although times of crisis are always good times for the magical business, what was done on the last few days is way more than a consequence of the crisis.

 It was agravated assault with a financial weapon. 

For those that may think that I am exagerating, and that the situation can not be that bad, allow me to give an example :  there are police officers and military personel that can't feed themselves and their families. I don't know about you, but to me that seems pretty serious.

Therefore to help those that are in dire finantial staits, I am posting a chinese sorcery prosperity ritual that can be used to recover what the government is stealing.


Chinese sorcery ritual for prosperity 



Materials needed
2 red candles
Yellow cloth 
Wooden sword or knife medium-sized 
Incense Burner and incense
Bowl or cup of uncooked rice 
Small cup or glass with water 
Small cup or glass of wine 
A large ashtray or burner 
Yellow paper and white paper 
Red ink or red pen 
Bowl with fresh fruit 
One or more bills. 

Ideally the ceremony should be held in a room reserved only for the purpose. This is often not possible. Ensure however that you will not be interrupted and that no one enters the room where you perform the ritual, while it is being performed. Avoid wearing white clothes and performing the ritual at night.

To start the ceremony, wash hands and wear clean clothes 
Fill the glasses or cups on the table , one with pure water and the other with wine.
Place fresh fruit in the bowl or container 
Close or cover all doors and windows, to avoid interruptions and the iddle curiosity of people.

Light the candles and the incense.
Write the word TAO on a sheet of white paper using a pen or red ink. Place the leaf between the candles. 
Join hands in prayer position in front of your chest and bow respectfully three times toward the altar 
Then dedicate the ritual to the God Tsay Shen Yeh (this is the God of Prosperity, for something else dedicate the ritual to the the entity presiding over it).
Write the name of the Deity on yellow paper with red ink and place the paper between the candles.

 WARNING: Focus on the ritual. Do not waste your time and do not waste the time and good will of the God and benevolent spirits. If you are thinking of the six o'clock soap opera or the amazing backside of your next door neighbour do not begin the ritual.

Shortly after the ceremony is dedicated, write an application, that is a letter written on yellow paper with red ink, making your request. You can request a specific amount within a predetermined time, or you can request money for a specific desire.

Chinese people believe that for you to receive the money, it should be taken from other people, therefore I strongly advise that you request that this money must be taken from villains (gun/drug dealers, evil corporations and governments are good examples of villains). Recovering the money that the government is stealing from you, plus interests, seems like a very good idea.

Remember to be respectful in your request. You are not commanding soldiers, servants or slaves. You're asking a favor to the Gods, so once again, be respectful.
Write in the petition your full name, the date and place of your birth and sign it. 
Soon after write the God's name in large letters on the petition. Prepare then the sacrifice of money. Write the name of the God in red ink on the(s) note(s) and pierce the money with the sword or knife. Place it over the candle on the right side until it starts to burn and then hold it over the ashtray or burner until it burns completely. Do the same with the petition and invite the God to feast on the water, wine and fruit. I always say the invitation aloud. After a period of time that you consider appropriate (and please don't rush it, never before 15 minutes) prepare to finish the ceremony. Write a final petition, urging all the spirits that are at the altar (good and bad) to return to their places of origin, because the ceremony will be finalized. Sprinkle a few drops of water and wine on the petition, puncture it with a sword or knife, burn it on the the candle on the left and hold it over the ashtray until it burns completely. Re-join the hands in the prayer position and again bow three times before the altar. Blow out the candles and pour out the water and wine.

 Now ... Some considerations. 
If you do not have a square table to serve as the altar, use a bench or wooden box ... however ensure that the bank or crate will only be used for the ritual. This may not be possible with the table .
The Altar must be placed on the north side of the room.

Results and frequency of ritual ... If you have never performed this kind of ritual, it is the first time in your life that you're trying to draw the attention of the God. Be patient. He does not know you and may have other commitments. My suggestion is to do the ritual in groups of three. Do the ritual, one day, teh next and the other that follows. Pause for three days. Three more days of ritual ... up to nine groups of three. 


Cost ... Money is expensive and the smallest bill of the European Union is 5 Euros. Doing the math 9x3 = 27, 27x5 = € 135 Euros. Too expensive for most people on the European Union. 

My suggestion for those in Europe is to buy some $ 1 USD bills. $ 27 USD is not a fortune. You can go use several times the candles and rice. This saves you some expenses, and a cup or glass of wine and water, together with some fruit every day for the ritual is not overly expensive.

If you really can't  aford those 27 $USD, write a check, or use consecrated monopoly money.

Of course, I hope that as you get richer you will increase the quantity and quality of offerings.
I personally like to put the offering of money in a red envelope with the name of the God. Red is the color of joy and prosperity among the Chinese and it is good form to offer a wrapped gift. I suggest that sometimes you do this ritual without any request, just to make offerings to the God 
Why? Because you sure want to be more than a supplicant. Invest in a close (even friendly) relationship with the God.
When I learned this ritual, apart from the money the only mentioned offerings were incense and fruit. I suggest that on the rituals of petition you keep up with just that. But for rituals of pure offerings, vary ... I suggest sweets, hot soup, oatmeal cakes, toast with honey and lamb butter, chocolate, coffee, tea, anything but preferably hot. 

Avoid offering meat, fish and anything that has onions or garlic. 
Avoid eating onions or garlic before the ritual.

Some traditions say the that one should eat the food offered to the Gods after the ending of the ritual. Others advocate that they should be utterly consumed by fire. Personally and whenever possible I prefer to put them quietly and respectfully in places where they can be consumed by animals, people or other creatures in need ... let the Gods make the choice.
And that's it. Try the Ritual and then comment about it.

Being professional - 2

The other day I was talking to a friend and lifelong student of magic, that recently decided to jump into the professional bandwagon.

We were discussing technicalities and trading stories and he showed me a report that he was going to send to a client.

I almost strangled him on the spot. The report was a photocopy of something he had wrote on a exercise book, with stuff pertaining to other clients strikethrough with a permanent marker.

After I finished scolding him, I picked up my USB pen and downloaded to his computer a  small file to be used as a report.
You can see it below.

I said :
_ Record every time that you work for the client. If you have to buy stuff, stapple your invoices to the repport._

He looked at me has if I was something out of twilight zone.

_Don't look to me like that_I said. _You are A PROFESSIONAL. The minimum that it is required is a professional report. And if you don't attach the invoices to it, they will suspect you.




Being professional-1

Inominandum (Jason Miller) wrote a great post about being a professional magician.
Some of my magic friends were shocked when I decided to become professional.
They felt that I was defiling The Art and that I should stop doing it.

But the truth is that I won't do it. Not because of the money, because I could earn the same or more if I had chosen another activity for my second source of income.

No.
I will keep doing it for 2 main reasons.
1 - It is a way to develop my magic. It is a challenge. Although 90 % of the people want to get laid, get rich or get even, the other 10% are often surprising ( and difficult).
2 - I get to help people.

If you're interested in doing it because of money, forget it. You can earn more doing other stuff.
If you're into this because of the glamour (look at me I'm so cool, I'm a professional magician), forget it, unless you only want to sell love potions. If you want (or are able)  to do more be prepared. Doing some types of workings while simultaneously keeping your family and job safe is taxing. There is nothing glamorous about looking (and feeling) like death warmed over.

Think with you mind and with your heart, before taking this step.
And if you do, WELCOME.

Get out of your high horse, or life will do it for you.

A professional sorcerer is another professional that has to worry about the market. And if it is true that we have a set of tools that are lacking to most people, it is also true that if we are too squeamish, we starve.
90% plus of all the sorcerous work that the clients require is either “love” OR curses. I am squeamish (my friends would call it having a consciousness) and I don’t curse unless I have a good reason to do it.
Fortunately I have found my niche and I can avoid doing the kind of work that I dislike
My clients already know this and when they give my contact to other’s they usually tell them that. Imagine my surprise when an old client sent me an e-mail asking me to curse a business. I picked up the phone and called him.
He didn’t hate the people in the business, actually he considered them very nice people. And they weren’t his business rivals (he has a 9 to 6 job). And they weren’t doing any magic against him, but yet they were ruining his life.
Before I asked more questions he said :
_ Listen, let me show you. Will you have dinner with me and my wife, tonight?
_... Ok. What time ?
_ 9 p.m.
At 8h 00m p.m. I was already on his street and visited the business he wanted me to curse, an ethnic bar. After drinking a Coca-Cola , visiting the bathroom and scanning the place, I was still at a complete loss of why he wanted me to curse the place.
At 08h 45m p.m. I was at his house, and met his wife for the first time. Her face glowed when he said to her that I might do something about the business.
9 p.m. He asked me to look down from his window, and to do it every 10/15 minutes or so.
10 p.m. The bar had lots of people coming in, and the music was loud, but not too loud. I noticed that a lot of people bought beers and other stuff and went out to the street to drink it. Loud voices.
11 p.m. Everybody (or at least a lot of people) was on the street. The beer bottles were on the ground making piles, I had seen at least a couple of guys vomiting, the music was still loud, and several persons were on their cars, drinking and booming their own music.
11h 50m p.m. A rush in of the people outside.
00H 10 m a.m. The bar closed.  Those that had rushed in were on the street (I counted 40) with the bottles they have bought. The music from the cars was blasting. People were shouting at each other to be heard.
_Why don’t you call the police ? I asked.
_One of our neighbors did that and those sons of bitches beat him and his wife.
_ Ah…
04 a.m. The last two cars went away.
My client and his wife have to  get up at  06 a.m. everyday.
Although not doing anything against him that bar his ruining his life and the lives of people that live on that street. And yet the owners are nice and hard working people, that are liked by most.
I promised to help.
And I’ll have to find out a solution. I’ll have to find a way to make the sure that the obnoxious people go away, or else I’ll have to make the business go away.
And I think that I recognized one of the clients. Someone in this line of work.

A few problems for beggining professional sorcerers

I suppose that most of us started in an almost organic way. We did our stuff for us, expanded to family and friends and suddenly we had people requesting our help and offering money.

But the path to become a professional is not without bumps.

On my country, mages are like prostitues. There are no laws against it, but many people don't like it. And it is more comum to see a "mage"sued for fraud than to see a prostitute accused of anything.
Iif you work on the South of Europe, and you receive your payment in cash your biggest problem is usually to keep your clients happy. Buuuttt..., sometimes you want to do it in a completely legal way, and pay your taxes like the model citizen you are. Then you have a problem. Sorcerer, Magician;Witch are not recognized as professions. Your alternative is to register yourself as an astrologer, card reader and/or a worker in alternative medicine. Sometimes you can work with companies that provide that kind of services, and you pay a percentage to the company. However choose wisely. In the South of Europe the companies usually take from you an average of 30 to 35%  of what you charge to the client. On the North of Europe, more specifically in Germany companies with tarot/spiritual counseling hotlines will charge 40% of what you receive from the client, and if you organize a working by e-mail. they will charge 50%..

So, if you want to be a model citizen, choose wisely. Whenever possible work alone or with another professional sorcerer (or sorcerers).

Lazy clients

4 a.m.
My cell phone ringed like the world was about to end.
mshrpp, bvv, rrrbbb, Shit ! _I say.
I picked up the phone, saw what time was it and answered it.
_Hello?
_At Last ! _said a voice on the other end of the phone_ I thought that you were never going to answer that fucking phone ! ( a lot of words that I failed to understand). Fuck !
_Ok...The connection is very bad, Speak slower.
A ton of giberish on the phone.
_I don't understand. I'm going to hang up and call you back.
Dooon't you fucking han..._   click.
I got up, and cheked the phone to see the number that was calling me. One of my few clients in the US.
I usually don't give my cell phone number to any client, but  considering what he was paying me I made an exception.
Briiiing !
The cell phone ranged again.
I answered.
_Hello (insert whatever name you want here).
_Don't you ever fucking_
Click. I wasn't in the mood to hear him shouting.
Called him
_Hello (name).
_Did you just hang up on me ?_he asked in a puzzled voice.
_I will do it again if you don't stop shouting. Is that clear?
He spat the word like he was choking on it_ Yes.
_Yes what ?
_ I will stop shouting.
I coul feel him trembling with rage, fuming from the other side of the world.
_Ok. Now explain me s-l-o-w-l-y what is the problem.
_The fucking rings aren't working !!!
I had two identical gold rings made for him, and they had been seriously consecrated and blessed. In his line of work he needed some serious protection, so the idea was to use one of the rings one week, then use the other and let the ring that he took of to rest in water with salt the next week. That way every week one of the rings would be clean, rested and eager to protect him.
_Have you been cleaning the rings like I told you to ?
_YES.
I picked up my pendulum. The answer was NO.
For how long ? Two weeks? No.
Three weeks? No.
Four weeks? No.
Five weeks? No...
More than five weeks but less than six ? Yes.
_Fucking say something. I want my money back.
_Sure, I'll give you your money back, but first you'll have to clean the rings, and you haven't done it in more than 5 weeks.
_I DID.
_(name), you are talking to me. You can lie you ass out but you can't lie to me.
Click. He hanged up.

I wen't to the kitchen to make myself a cup of coffee, decided to drink it iced, and consulted the pendulum again.
Is any of the rings still able to offer him some degree of protection, however small ? yes.
His he using it ? no.
The phone rang.

_Hello (name).
_I am sorry.
_You should be.
Silence.
_I'm all fucked up...
_Take the ring that you're wearing and put it in salt and water for one day. Use the other. After a day, put the other ring to rest and clean in salt and water for two days. Use again the one you're wearing. Keep increasing the rest and clean up period of the rings for a day until both get one week of rest.
Silence.
_Ok.

_It is 04 30 a.m. You'll have to pay my emergency fee. Transfer 80 dollars to my account first thing in the morning.
Silence.
_Ok.


_Oh (name), one more thing.
_Shoot_  he said.
_If you ever dare to call me again at 4 a.m. without a very good reason, you won't like it. Instead of crapping blood, you'll be crapping something else.
_How do you know i'm crapping blo_
Click. I hanged up and went to bed.
Perhaps I could still sleep for an hour.

Magic, Sorcery, Effort, Success and Starcraft

There is always a joker that says that magic doesn't work, and that if it did we wouldn't need to make any effort.
We could have money without a job/business.
We would get laid everyday because the most gorgeous girls/guys/groups of people would appear on your front door naked and with a bottle of Scotch/Beer/Champagne.

So, if this doesn't happen it is because magic and sorcery don't exist and we are just a bunch of deluded idiots.
When I was young I did my best to explain magic and it´s  strengths and limitations,  but that kind of joker doesn't pay attention. Nowadays I just laugh and say that magical workings are like Starcraft Cheat Codes.
You start playing and you don't progress fast enough, or the game is too difficult, or you're just too lazy...
You use the cheat codes.
Operation CWAL - your upgrades are faster, and your buildings get done in a fraction of the time. That can be a spell to open paths and to get the best help to you.
Black Sheep Wall - You get to see all the game. That is divination, allowing you to know what your enemies and adversaries are doing, but also the oportunities that lay ahead and that one could miss otherwise.
Show Me The Money - you get a lot of minerals and gas. The magical equivalent are workings to bring money and resources to you. You get bank credit where your competition is left wanting, your clients pay in full instead of leaving you waiting for the money, you discover new business/clients or your boss gives you a bonus when everybody else doesn't get anything.
But with cheat codes or spells you have to play the game to win, you have to make an effort.
It is then that the most obstinated idiots say that there is a cheat code on Starcraft that allows one to go instantly to the next level without any effort.
My reply is that it gets the person to the next level, but it isn't fun. And enjoying what one acomplishes is every bit as important as getting it.

Message

You are the terror of the world,
You prey upon the muggles,  wreck marriages, make womens miscarriage.

In your ignorance and arrogance you believe yourself to be a god but you're nothing but a joke.
And nobody is laughing. 

Thursday 28 June 2012

Professional courtesy and idiots


Most muggles don't have a clue about how much magic is working around them. On their jobs, on their marriages, all around them professionals or dabblers are working, creating circumstances that will change their life. The muggles that are slightly aware of that make an effort to avoid being collateral damage. Against an unjust boss, a hungry ghost, an envious person wanting to wreck their marriage, or just plain old bad luck.
They hire people like me to protect their jobs and to keep their paths open. That is good for them and for professionals all over the world.
And the good professional cleans the muggles path, remove curses, blesses them, and if need be, kicks the client's ass to make sure that they have a chance.

But there is always an idiot, that instead of working against the workings of others decides to make a name for him/herself by attacking the other professionals. That is stupid because quite often the workings will keep damaging their clients even if he/she is sucessefull in wipping out the competition. It also attracts unwanted attention. We are a paranoid breed and the demise of one of us makes all others smell the blood. Besides most have friends/companions/students/partners that in al probability will act against the attacker. The result may be one of the endless and petty witch wars that plague our existence.

My advice ? Don't attack another professional unless you have a damn good reason for it. And if you do, gather as much help as possible and make sure that he/she is dealt in such a way that others don't want to risk attacking you.

Sorcery... and diapers

Powerfull and full of oneself as only a sorcerer can be, the truth is that sometimes we also live unpleasant situations.
There are workings that required prolonged fasts. By prolonged I mean any fast over 4 days and by fast I mean having nothing but water. Water. No fruit juice, no lemon juice, no soup. Water.

After the 4th day your bowel already got ride of everything solid, and you evacuate liquid goo. My advice is that when you reach that point you start using diapers. That way if you fart and some liquid escapes, it will be contained by the diaper and not stain your clothes.
And believe me, those stains are impossible to remove, it doesn't matter how hard you try.

Fever

"Fever! In the morning
Fever all through the night."*

You have started doing magic long (or not so long) ago. You have managed to have a balanced life, a good job, good health, perhaps a significant other (or others). People consider you lucky and some of you "luck" seems to rub on you friends and family. You're not a mystic, but rather someone that brings change to the world.
You have a good life and there isn't much that you want or need. You don't need to do much to maintain your life as it is.
And then it starts.
A longing. A desire. Something nagging you.
You're balanced and don't let people see that there is something worrying you, something you can't define.
You check and recheck our shields, traps and other defenses, and create a few new ones. You do divinations and give offerings and every pendulum and spirit says that nothing is after you.
The unrest deepens.
You  do a major working to get answers, and the only advice you are given is to do what you love.

Do what you love... what you love...

Slowly they start to show up in your life, like moths around a flame. People that need help. And you help them. You help one, and another and another, and you realize that you have never been so happy. You are doing magic, a lot of magic, you are doing what you love.

Magical Attack

One thing that will sooner or later happen to a magician is that he/she will be attacked.
That is inevitable and not a big problem, UNLESS…
…Unless the sorcerer/sorceress falls into the three most common traps.
1-      Becoming paranoid and shooting in all directions. Inevitably someone that can hurt him/her will be seriously pissed off and send something really nasty his/her way.

2-      Believing that one is invulnerable and totally out of reach of others.
Some years ago I witnessed a discussion about this between two friends of mine. She believed that it would be required something almost like the magical equivalent of a nuclear explosion to enter her shield. His answer was to create a very small servitor that went totally unnoticed and wrote on her shield “a… was here !”.  I am NOT joking.

3-      Believing in all the media hype, drama and propaganda and expecting a magical attack to be something thunderous, with dozens of demons popping up and Death Himself/Herself/Itself  to show up in a chariot pulled by hundreds of lost souls to drag the victim to hell.
A good magical attack is usually far less dramatic, unless the caster is seriously trying to cause waves and show power not only to it’s victim but also to others that may be witnessing it (and by others I don’t mean just other magical users, but also other type of entities).

Effective magical attack against a magician/witch/sorcerer is usually far more subtle (Most people don’t bother with subtleties when dealing with muggles).
As an example let me tell you something that happened to me.
First of all for a couple of days I couldn’t sleep, which should have warned me that something was wrong. I do not loose sleep and if I am agitated I simply choose and use one of several techniques to calm me down and get me to sleep in a matter of minutes. I didn’t even remember I knew those techniques.
Two minutes before the alarm clock started to ring I switched it off and decided to get out of the bed. I closed my eyes, opened them, dragged myself out of the bed, and started walking towards the door, closed my eyes, opened them, dragged myself out of the bed, and started walking towards the door, closed my eyes, opened them, dragged myself out of the bed, and started walking towards the door, closed my eyes, opened them, dragged myself out of the bed, and started walking towards the door, closed my eyes, opened them, dragged myself out of the bed, and started walking towards the door. After a while I realized that I had seen and done it before and that each time I got out of the bed the room become darker and darker. I willed myself to wake up, but still travelled to the bed and out of it for two or three times more.  I woke up in pain, panting as if I had run a marathon.
Took a very hot shower, because I was freezing,
Went to take breakfast, and although it wasn’t a healthy breakfast at least I didn’t eat the tons of food that I wanted to.
Got out of the house and went to the office. By the time I arrived there already knew something.
Care to guess what ?
Read back what I wrote. Fatigue, cold, hunger…
I was being vamped, either by another magician or by a spirit or construct sent by a magician.
Now pay attention, please.
A good attack always strikes simultaneously on several levels.
Knowing that, I took advantage of being the first to arrive to the office and banished, banished, banished and banished. Cleaned the place as much as possible in the little time I had to prevent surprises that could have been there for me and to make sure that there was harmony between my colleagues and me.

By lunch time I had already decided that I would wait for whatever was feeding of me with a few astral friends and that I had to bless everything in my life to help eradicate whatever could have been sent my way.

I also took a decision that most of you will consider unwise. I decided not to strike back against the magician that had attacked me.
The reason is simple. Most will stop when realizing that their attack was detected and eliminated and I had more important things to do than a game of magical attack ping pong. I hit you, you hit me, I hit you… waste of time.
However I am no saint. If I am attacked again by that person, I will retaliate with extreme prejudice. And then he may see Death Herself getting out of Her Chariot and picking him up to take him to greener pastures.
