Being grateful for what you have, rather than focusing on what you don't have, enables you to focus on the positive aspects of your life. Gratitude is a spiritual practice, and a regular ritual of writing down all the good things that happen to you on a daily basis will enhance your life enormously. You can also use your feelings of gratitude to help others. All you need is a small container and a number of coins. Sit quietly and think about all the things you're grateful for.

In my book, Modern Magick, I gave a brief introduction to one of the most important people in the history of magick, Dr. John Dee (1527–1608 or 1609). More than a magician, Dee was also one of the most interesting and fascinating figures of the Elizabethan Age. When he died, his home in Mortlake (a district of London on the southern bank of the Thames River) had the largest library in all of England. Besides being a magician, he was also an astronomer and astrologer, a geographer, a world traveler, a mathematician, a scholar and…a spy. His fame allowed him to be an occasional advisor and astrologer to Queen Elizabeth I of England. When others advised her to send out the ...
