Memory is an enduring pattern of motion, like the whirlpool, rather than an enduring substance, like a mirror, a wax tablet, or a sheet of paper. If memories are stored in neurons, there is no standing aside from the stream of events, for neurons flow along in the same stream as events outside the skull ... All our insides are outside, there in the physical world. But, conversely, the outside world has no color, shape, weight, heat, or motion without "inside" brains. It has these qualities only in relation to brains, which are, in turn, members of itself.

Cleansing Methods for Magickal Items
Before using a magickal item it is suggested that you clear away any existing negativity and/or personal energies.
You never know who may have handled it. Most items will require a single cleansing before being ready to properly use.
However, some items may retain lingering unhelpful energies even after a cleansing method is performed.
Items inherited from another person who had it in their possession for an extended period, or items previously charged and used for specific purposes may be more difficult to cleanse.
If one application doesn’t do the trick, repeat the process. If that is still not sufficient, try a second method.
Please be mindful of closed practices when performing these techniques. Always check and research before choosing a cleansing method.
Remember to use logical means when determining which method would work the best for the situation.
Keep in mind, there are stones that can be damaged by submerging them in water.
Metals may be damaged by salt.
Lightly colored quartz, amethyst, and other stones may lose all or a portion of their color and energy when they are left in direct sunlight.
The least damaging methods of cleansing include direct moonlight, sound manipulation, and using your own personal energy.
Smoke Cleansing – This has been used for a long time. Smoke from dried herbs bundled together, candles, or incense are widely used today. Using the smoke pass it over and surround the item while focusing on sending any negative energy away allowing it to become neutralized. Incantations may be used in conjunction. Deities, Elementals, or other spirits may be called to assist if needed.
Water – Submerge or sprinkle water over items while focusing on your intent to cleanse the item of unwanted energies. Remember to be sure that the item can handle water. The best resources come from natural bodies of water including rainwater, creeks, rivers, and the ocean.
Sea Salt – Make certain that the salt will not be damaging beforehand, bury it in the salt and leave it for a few hours or a few days. This lets the salt absorb the unwanted energy.
Sunlight – Bathe the item under direct sunlight making certain there will be no damage warranted. Leave the item there allowing the solar energies to properly cleanse.
Moonlight – After sunset place the item under the moonlight. Bring it back in prior to sunrise allowing the lunar energies cleanse away any unwanted energies.
High Vibration Sounds – Try using your favorite music to turn up loud. When applicable use Tibetan Singing bowls, lead crystal bowls, gongs, drums, or tuning forks.
Pyramid Energy – Items can be placed under or inside charged pyramids meant for cleansing and protection returning the item to a neutral state.
Personal Energy – Use your own personal energy to cleanse items in question. This method is generally safe for every item. This can be intensive for some depending upon the quantity and quality of energies needing to be pushed away.
Charged Crystals – There are some crystals that can be used to strip away unwanted energies having the natural ability to do so. Amethyst crystals excel at this. Items may be placed on larger crystals or have smaller crystals set on or around the item to properly cleanse.

So basically this whole "magic can never be used for personal gain" rule came from Charmed. It basically existed to make sure the main characters' mundane status quo never changed too much, and it was also deeply connected to the show's extremely Christian perspective on good, evil, and morality in general. Anybody who tells you that this is an actual thing in real life doesn't know what they're talking about.

One of my perennial probably-never-gonna-happen projects is doing a deep dive into the parallels between how Disco Elysium blurs the line between political theory and physics and the way We Know the Devil and Heaven Will Be Mine do the same. Like, they're by no means compatible systems of metaphysics, and given both the timing of their authorship and the circumstances of their publication I strongly doubt that either one influenced the other, but there are some very conspicuous points of intersection.
(Incidentally, if the way that Disco Elysium literalises the dialectical weight of history in its setting's laws of physics is living rent-free in your brain, you'd probably get a real kick out of We Know the Devil and Heaven Will Be Mine, assuming that frank discussions of religious trauma and transphobic violence aren't deal-breakers for you.)

Wherever people may feel that the ego is located, and however much, or little, of the physical body is identified with it, almost all agree that "I" am not anything outside my skin ... The skin is always considered as a wall, barrier, or boundary which definitively separates oneself from the world—despite the fact that it is covered with pores breathing air and with nerve-ends relaying information. The skin informs us just as much as it outforms; it is as much a bridge as a barrier.

Types Of Projection
LUCID DREAMING
The Consciousness is aware that you are within a dream. The levels of awareness may vary from a slight recognition to a broadening sense of perspective. Lucid dreams tend to happen while a person is in the middle of their dream, and suddenly they realize that they are.
This term is branded as: dream-initiated lucid dream.
Another type is called: wake-initiated lucid dream, and it happens when you go from a normal waking state into a direct dream state with no lapses within the consciousness.
In both scenarios, dreams tend to be more bizarre and emotional. When lucidity is determined within your own consciousness you should have at least some ability to control yourself.
DREAM WALKING
The Consciousness will be aware that you are within a dream, but it may not just be your dream alone.
Your 'dream-self' will have located someone close to you, and they do not need to be in a physical sense as the subtle reality does not know distance when compared to the physical plane.
Sometimes only the dream-walker knows of the events that transpire, while other times the other person also becomes aware.
MENTAL PROJECTION
The Consciousness projects to another place that is separate from the physical vessel. It's comparable to a daydream, but it's stronger because you see a mental picture. This image, for example, can be comparable to a series of snapshots or a movie being played.
People call this phenomena Remote Viewing or Clairvoyance.
ASTRAL PROJECTION
The Consciousness and the Astral body separate together from the physical vessel. The traveler has use of all five senses, as well as those that are used by the astral body. Vivid dreams are frequent during this time of sleep.
ETHERIC PROJECTION
The Consciousness, the Astral body and the Etheric body separate together from the physical vessel.
BILOCATION
This is where the Consciousness, the Astral body, the Etheric body and the Physical body are in TWO different places at the same time.

something about your body decomposes but your soul decomposes too. something about fungi returning your spirit to soil. something about returning to God by the handwork of scavenger beings, millions of years on this Earth. something about animals only being able to move onto land because of fungi. something about angels, warriors of God. something something something i am built out of the essences of corpses carried by mushrooms into unity with the Divine and shall return and return and return again.
