Step 1: Acquire glowing books.

When you open a magical book, it should glow majestically. Magicians are immediately recognizable by the colour and intensity of the glow emanating from their reading material.

The glowier the better. Pagans and magicians are people of the library, so it’s important to have at least two glowy books readily available at all times.

Sometimes magical books can even transfer their magical glow to the magician’s hand. This is a sign of a true adept.

Step 2: Try out some potions and elixirs.

Maybe some magical tea? With all those nifty glowy books you’ve been reading, it should be a snap to manifest.

This trick is only possible with frilled cuffs, so dig out your pirate shirt, Jerry.

Step 3: Get outside and commune with nature.

But remember kids, fashion is key, and you must dress to impress. If your frilly pirate shirt is in the wash, perhaps consider cast-offs from a Lord of the Rings extra?

You may not live in an area with mossy mushroom-covered logs to snuggle with. No problem. Instead, find a rainbow Pride tree to relax under. In time maybe a unicorn will appear. Or your Discrodian totem?

Step 4: Maintain a spooky temple.

Magical orbs are key decorating features, and indoor foliage is a must. Dim lighting is not a problem as everything magical has its own natural glow, you’ll never be left in the dark again. It’s called enlightenment, yeah?

Step 5: Chill.

Magick fixes all problems. Read those glowy books and you’ll have no worries. You’re set for life.

So kick back and wait for the tophat full of money that’s bound to find its way to you any moment.
