The law and magic
« on: February 21, 2020, 02:17:39 am »
Sometimes when I am out doing my hulk smash it might look strange to some people and sometimes the cops even show up. I am truthful with them every time, lets say  9 out of 10 times I get to be on my way but I have been arrested for doing what "we" would call magic.

Healing the Earth is one of my favorite because you get to feel the earths energy and its truly amazing but its loud and if it  hit someone it would definitely kill them so I always do this at night away from the average person. But like I said it does alarm some folks and the last thing I ever want is to make people uneasy. So what I am asking is if any other people out there have this same experience, do you keep doing it or do you go into hibernation mode once you are fed up with getting into trouble even though your helping?

I don't expect any replies…. cause you should already know I already made up my mind 8)

A Reminder:
Hi, Nightshade88,

We don't mind long posts here, but to avoid having a hard-to-read wall-o'-text, hitting "enter" twice every few lines adds some white space and makes it easier to follow - I've edited yours to add those breaks, but it's a really good habit to get into yourself.

They don't have to be the "proper" place for paragraph breaks (we're interested in readability more than technicalities), or a complete change of thought - some thoughts take a lot of lines and need to be broken up into sub-thoughts - as long as they're there.

This isn't a formal warning, just a reminder. No reply is necessary, but if you have questions or need clarification,  please feel free to contact a member of staff privately.

Thanks!

Healing the Earth is one of my favorite

I'm not sure I've come across Healing the Earth in the way I think you might be meaning, i.e. is this a well known ritual in your circles?

I've also not come across hulk smash in this context either, so I'm not able to say if your practice compares with anything I might do from the information I have at hand right now.

Though, in short, I tend to practice in the privacy of my own home as things stand so I'm very unlikely to encounter law enforcement while doing so and I'd never want to do anything which might carry the risk of causing fatal harm to another, even if I thought that risk was lowered by doing said thing in a secluded place - if someone did come to harm I'd just suffer much too much guilt for the rest of my days.
