      if you want to do pre-nerd-fantasy-technicalization magic the mindset you want to get into is animism, where every active process around you is a matter of intelligent effort and if you want to ride the wind then obviously the thing you need to do is make friends with the wind

      ritualism comes from animism; you want to come correct when you're asking the wind for a favor

      In one form yes but you might also be asking for paracausal intervention from outside causality (dank demon summoning)

      the basis of magic in http://lostsouls.org , on the other hand, is the idea that the underlying structure of reality is programmable, mostly by apophenia sufficiently intense as to qualify as a psychotic break sustained and systematized for years

      I think this is awesome but also ultimately is a clarkeian causal system, which has much more representation than "what if legit paracausality and spaceships"

      yeah, it is nailing it down, at the end of the day, just trying to keep the place where it's nailed down obscure (99.99% of magicians have no idea why anything they do works) what's paracausality mean to you?

          I think acausal is something that operates entirely inside a realm but outside its rules and paracausal is something that influences that realm from 'outside', so the question of is subjective awareness influincing its causal substrate acausal or paracausal is a question of the

          Nature of subjective awareness, is it embedded in its substrate or a realm outside of it?

          A paracausal action may follow 'causal' rules inside its own realm but the influence is felt in another realm of causality altogether.

          here's another basis that's fun because there's literally no reason it can't apply IRL. let's say that dark matter is the structure of spacetime, what "nothing" is made of, and dark energy is the energy that circulates in that. we have a hard time measuring it because it's...

          a little like trying to use a scale to measure the planet you're standing on. so: where there's matter and energy, eventually, there is life. life that would be inherently extremely consistent in nature with a number of recurring ideas about magical beings.
