Hi Danni! First of all, I commend you for taking on such a challenging topic! When thinking about working on change for Good, or at least Protection, perseverance comes to mind. If it rings true in your heart and it harms none, never give up! Towards that end, no action, however small, is a waste. I think of a vote to protect or nurture our Universe (within and without) as a ray in the collective Light. It also takes courage and strength! I think your advice to focus on three is very reasonable. Unless one is uniquely gifted, most cannot recall, comprehend, or otherwise focus on more than three to five things. There are an infinite number of good causes out there, and I would be a fool to attempt to take all of them on simultaneously. I would be spread so thin that I would dishonor all of them. So I meditate, reflect, take a nature walk, go within and without, above and below -- then choose what speaks to me with the resulting Wisdom. Action and support can take many forms (not just voting): financial, volunteering, spiritual work to help others, healing, and the Arts. There are more than mentioned here and part of one's personal growth is to discover what speaks to you, then take action.

Thank you for doing what I thought a fair and neutral video on magic and politics

Could you give the link for the Wild Hunt? It sounds really interesting, but I don't see it in the description. Thanks, Danni!

[@DanniEsotericMoment]

Thank you Robin, I knew I was missing a link!!! It can be found at wildhunt.org/ I really appreciate this site and the news they bring to the community.

oh yeah ... that younger group that believes voting opens the gateway for tampering, and therefore their "power" lies in not voting in order to prevent that tampering . . . I've literally heard it said, "What difference will it make?"

Sorry, but I think this sort of thing is divisive and potentially toxic. The Binding Trump thing seems misguided and infantile. Shouldn't spirituality be an aspect of our lives where we put all this political partisanship aside?

[@DanniEsotericMoment]

Hmmm I guess for me the important thing to remember is that we all belong to a system and a community. Whether we like it or not that makes us political. Perhaps binding Trump isn't helpful or a good use of time for you. But there are other ways to use magic to better participate and communicate with the communities you belong to. Magic empowers us to use or voice and power for more than apathy or inaction.

Nothing positive to say about our government at this time. Basically, I feel there has been a bloodless coup . . . I'm waiting for different facets to bear out. I have decided to "wage peace" and since I have flawlessly relied on Mother Earth to care for me and my family before, I will do so again. Currently, on my study list, is this guy: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Robert_G._Ingersoll.

"Wage Peace" what a great sentiment for the times we are living in. I have "Vandalize with hope" on my chalk board in my kitchen right now. Seems like they both fit together well.

Magicians, ultimately, will always lose
