Share lyrics or experiences when music "made or broke" the spell. Are there particular songs that you feel are "magical?" While I've yet to use music during spell work, I sometimes use music during meditation. I find I can let my mind wander more easily and ignore the outside world when I focus all my attention on the music. There is a certain piece of music I've used for a focused meditation that I like to use when I'm stressed or having a hard time getting to sleep. I used to listen to this piece of music at night as I fell asleep, and I developed a strong connection with it -- so much so, that I almost immediately go into a semi-trance when I hear it. This has changed over the past few years as I did not listen to this piece of music as much as I used to. But there was a time when it was almost like a switch being turned on when I even imagined the music - I'd immediately be deep in my meditation. As for songs that I feel are magickal - well, there are tonnes of those! But I'll share one with you. When I hear it, I usually picture myself dancing inside the chapel of the kids' camp I used to work at. That's where I first meditated upon this song. I hope you enjoy it! Higher Love I can taste more than feel Moved, lifted higher I surrender all control Moved, lifted higher Heaven bound on the wings of love Moved, lifted higher I surrender heart and soul Moved, moved by a higher love _____ BB!
