“You have power over your mind - not outside events. Realize this, and you will find strength.” -Marcus Aurelius

We have gone from to Know, knowing what you really want to manifest? What your motivation truly is behind why you want to manifest it. As well as how you go about creating the spell to manifest your goal.

Then proceeded on to Will, figured out whether the goal you are looking to manifest aligns with your highest will. As well as, using that will to put some passion into it.

Now we move on to Dare, which involved daring to put belief and trust and yourself and the universe. Trusting your abilities and that that the universe is abundant and wants the best for you. This is not a time or place for you to be wishy washy. Knowing what you need and why you need it doesn’t mean anything if you do not dare to make it happen.

We also must dare to believe in our magick and craft. We dare to risk being different and fitting out. We dare to believe and trust in the powers and teaching of the old gods. Whether we see them as universal architypes and energies, aspects of the All of Divinity, or divine entities in their own right. We also must dare to believe in the Divine Spark within ourselves.

It is our courage that allows us to walk between the words. We have the courage to call upon the gods to enter our circles and work with us. This is so much more daring than just sending out a prayer hoping the Divine will help us. We dare to trust in the power of that spark of Divinity within us. We dare to believe in our own ability to create the life we dream of and make the changes necessary.

Daring to believe that we have the ability to create our reality. This is an act of courage. This is where the rubber hits the road. Knowing what you want and what your will is great but does not make anything change. It takes courage to take action to make your dreams come true. This applies to every aspect of our lives. Do not let fear hold you back from daring to move forward and doing what it takes to make the life of your dreams a reality. This involves more than just the magick.

For example, perhaps you did a spell for more money. Then the next day you hear that there is an opening for your dream promotion at work. You are afraid you might not be fully qualified. To Dare tells you to have the courage to apply for it anyway. Why not, what is the worst that can happen? The best is you get it, and ROCK IT!

In to Know we also talked about knowing yourself. You also must Dare to be completely honest with yourself. Dare to get to know the good, bad, and the ugly. Pushing past any fear to do what you know you need to do. It is by daring to be honest with yourself about the things about yourself you would like to change. It is only by admitting that you don’t like those things about yourself that you can begin to change them.

With this representing water, which means trusting your feelings. This is also where we learn to trust your intuition and gut. Believing in yourself. Leaning into your intuition. Have confidence in the decisions you make. Trusting yourself to be able to make the changes you need to create the life of your dreams. You only need to dare!

We also must dare to take responsibility for our own words, feelings, and actions. Daring to stick to your convictions and morals to do what you know is right, even when it is hard, even when no
