The terms “helpful” or “baneful” are simply perceptions of magick’s dual nature. Witches work to be neutral—to walk in balance and to work impartially somewhere in the center between the two extremes. This walking neutrally between the worlds is a study in polarity. We are not one or the other but shades of both.
With prosperity magick, the principle of polarity is manifested as giving and receiving. As magick works best through a dynamic energetic exchange, if you happily give then you will abundantly receive. They are two parts of the process, identical in nature but different in degree. Walk in
balance, respect polarity, and work with the laws of nature.
