The cards give you images and symbols to focus your vague intentions and transform them into action. Your will is the magic. In other words, you are the magic.

We're definitely a hodgepodge of influences. Mine, most heavily, would be Southern rock - the Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd and stuff like that. Hillary is more from the country side - her mom is Linda Davis, a country singer. Dave, he's a big fan of the Eagles and like that. ↗
