I took the time to reformat this for 70 columns... hope it helps.
|
|||
|
|
I know you already did this once, but some of the columns were still a
|
|||
|
|
little skewed... oh well.

The System of Correspondencies
|
|||
|
|
==============================
|
|||
|
|
You want high magic? Here's high magic for you. This is the system I
|
|||
|
|
use. It's based on extremely ancient and accurate systems.
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
How to use the System of Correspondencies: every corresponding element
|
|||
|
|
you use while casting your spell adds one bonus (whatever system);
|
|||
|
|
every opposing element present at the time is one penalty. Every
|
|||
|
|
object six units away is considered an opposing element (i.e. tin
|
|||
|
|
opposes gold and mercury, because both are six away).
|
|||
|
|
|
|||
|
|
Example: you want to cast a healing spell. Healing comes under the
|
|||
|
|
auspices of Taurus. What time of the year is it? What time of the day
|
|||
|
|
is it (and wait until 5:00 or 6:00 if possible for maximum effect)?
|
|||
|
|
What planet is in ascension at the time? (apply bonuses and penalties
|
|||
|
|
as necessary). Now, a copper rod would add a bonus; a hornbeam rod
|
|||
|
|
wrapped in copper is better still. Including mint, thyme or tansy
|
|||
|
|
into the potion or incantation (mixed into a muddy (earthen) paste,
|
|||
|
|
NOT boiled because Water is the opposing element!). Apply black runes
|
|||
|
|
to the head. Repeat six times. Offer a cow in sacrifice, and perform
|
|||
|
|
the ritual in a field if possible. Et cetera; you get the idea.
