I found a power spot close to the house where I live now almost as soon as I started exploring it here. So guess I am not the one to ask why I have not located a power spot if I think they are real and have a purpose . I should have added to my post the other option of those who did find power spots as I meant that too. The main point I was saying is if one does think power spots are useful, then they should seek them out, which really means to fine tune ones senses to be that of a sorcerer rather then common man. You are right, common man is not concerned with power spots and if you were to talk to a person about it, they may laugh in your face, call you crazy, get scared, etc. But those involved in sorcery understandings, and not making the physical effort to be a sorcerer, it could be for a number of reasons. Sometimes I think its becasue some sorcerers do not see themselves as being sorcerers, which is a shame. Because that doubtful intent will only hold them fixed in doubt and even can extend to resenting those who can do sorcery.
You obviously do not apply to the above as you located a power spot as soon as you arrived and perhaps it just came natural to you or perhaps you intended to locate it, you know the answer to that, but the point is I see no barriers in your perception of your ability to do this. You could have told me a number of things if my question made you uncomfortable, such as...power spots are the old ways, or power spots are a misinterpretation of something else, or power spots may not really be power spots and people mistaken them, or power spots are not of use...
But its a shame when people acquainted and initiated in sorcery do this. I understand common man, but a magical being denying his/her own magical nature due to inadequacy...they hinder themselves and then seek to slow others down out of jealousy. I've seen this happen. The skepticism of regular man enters in to a sorcerers view and contaminates it and makes them neither compatible in the sorcerer world nor fitting in with common man, more like no mans land. They use logic to speak sorcery principles...see that combination?...logic, the common mans fare, and sorcery principles. First of all sorcery is about doing first and foremost...getting results and the results verify the nature of reality, and that is that reality is fluid and can shift (ap) so there is no concrete reality as logic man thinks. Now thats an assertion to readers and its so easy to make and it so very easy to state a contrary opinion. So making assertions is easy. But verifying it (experience) is what makes all the difference and its the place where a person is transformed forever. Because no longer will they serve logical means of the ordered universe once they see that order can be rearranged and they can do it.
A common question in some sorcery circles seems to be... why do it...isn't there more important things to do that practice the old ways? Sorcery is seen as the old way, and the new way is freedom. Well, I don't see any incompatibility in the two. Seeing that reality is fluid and being able to make it happen (sorcery) actually frees one from perception of ordinary reality which appears fixed (ap). So sorcery liberates. The more one can perform sorcery, the more one is convinced freedom is possible and they have it within their own hands to achieve it.
I had something weird happen to me on this site too recently. I went to send someone a PM. I was clearly in my PM account typing it up. When I hit send, my very private PM, lol, ended up as a post in Inner Landscape. I assure you I was not in Inner Landscape when I wrote it but it somehow ended up there and I saw my avatar and time of post all that stuff. And it was meant for an individual not the internet public area. So I wanted to get back to erase it, first I copied it so as to transport it to PM once I erased it from the post area, but then my computer slowed down and I was like "great, my PM is stuck as a post out there and I cannot get to it" then a minute later I got my computer back working and went to get the post and it was not there, nor was there any PM sent and when I went to paste what I had copied, no paste option. Nothing. So it all happened and even it disappearing even though I know it did post in IL. Thats sorcery. I have many more things I could say, some much more shocking perhaps, examples of sorcery, but I find that telling people abotu them does not necessarily mean anything to them as any person is free to doubt my words and so unless they experience it, it means nothing unless they are previously experienced in sorcery too in which case they understand it happens and there is no logic to it, yet it can be harnessed in a focused way.
So sorcery is not logical. Yet we can find some order/organization in it, its just one has to constantly adapt as there is a high level of unpredictability. So being accustomed to the unbelievable is key. Not expecting C to follow A and B helps. Man, fron his birth gets indocrinated into the linear path (C follows A and B), yet its but one path, very insignificant in the scope of what our human possibilities are. It helps us survive here (the rational thinking way), but the trick is to use it for that and learn sorcery aside from it so as to survive in other realities. Why? Because what else are you goign to do? Live out a logical exisitence and then expect when you die you will somehow survive another reality you are unfamiliar with? The only way to transcend to other realities is to give up linear/logical limitations.
Its amazing what we can do when we just believe we can do it. Being open to power. Being open means being empty of all the stuff common man carries around that would cloud everything and make the world appear as such and such and so and so.
What interests me about power spots is they are here and are locatable and once located things happen. Its like if you were in the wilderness and needed water, so you sought to locate an underground stream, and once you did you felt accomplished and you could drink and thus survive. For a wilderness person this is an important achievement as it is further indication they can survive in the world they seek out.
For sorcerers/seers, locating a power spot is a very practical act. Its not way out there new age mumbo jumbo, but if one thinks that way, so shall it be, and nothing you can tell them to change their mind. Unfortunately they become like common man, even if they consider themselves apart from the masses, they are taking on that mass skepticism that keeps man prisoner in this rational conventional trap that is non-magical in its approach and uses logical means to interpret the world and thus activation of thinking process rather than feeling/sensing. A sorcerer uses feeling/senses and extrasensory at that to locate things outside the norm such as power spots...thats only one aspect.
