Possession and Enchantment (45)

I have very clear views on possessiveness, and a mantra (well, one of many mantras) that says Love Is Not Ownership. And I know I believe that. And yet, being contrary, I am just as willing to believe in the magical reality of Enchantment. Or is it to suspend my disbelief in it? (I can never quite remember).

But, go on then, I rarely start posts, but would love to know what others think/feel/know through their intuition. Intuition is a very interesting form of wisdom, I've always thought.

What do you know?

If both become enchanted equally then a very magical thing happens. It takes a lot and rarely happens in equal and increasing measure. But it does happen I have experienced it once.

Neither owns the other unless one desires to be owned by the other.

It is also not necessary to be owned to be enchanted.

Intuition is a lot about reading the person your with, acting and thinking accordingly and multiplying their trust in you and desire for you.

Most people have something and the other person see's it in them and desires it. It may only be one aspect of many, but it depends on the pull that one aspect has.

An interesting mind is an open mind and an honest mind .

Stuck in the maelstrom...

On the subject of ownership and love, one thing is for sure, you only get to keep the people you are prepared to let go of.

As for enchantments, well those spells fail over time as the enchanter or enchantresses true personalities start to show which eventually they always will.

Intuition - always a wonderful thing. Always trust your instincts and your gut, even if your head says otherwise.

Only related in that both are Occult, and bad, activities, the former meaning that an alien spirit has taken residence in you (usually Demonic as Angels don't do that sort of thing) shunting your soul out of the way, the second that a spell has been placed on you. That too is bad because it's to coerce you against your will.

I'm a bad, bad boy, and I'm going to steal your love.

Except that it's not and right less a than 25% of the time. You'd be more accurate tossing a coin.

To me - perhaps prosaically, perhaps disappointingly (but always good value - and a lovely nature) - enchantment is your will manipulated by wiles and charms and... oh gods, I must have her. Men are more usually the enchanted, rather than the enchanters, and there is many an enchantress who knows not the utter emotional wrecks she leaves in her wake just by being herself. And so, just to be clear, when we talk about enchantment, or manipulation (in this context) or emotional wreckage (again in this context), it is not necessarily a bad thing. Women were made to beguile, charm and generally twist men around various digits - it is a woman's world, after all, notwithstanding what the late Godfather of Parole said.

Possession is executive action.
