The Importance of a Necessary Space in Magic

No matter how cute your cat is your cat is not you're familiar that's something that people very tongue-in-cheek used to kind of say through the 80s and 90s like calling their pets they're familiar but it grew to the point where there were a few books that kind of talked about pets as familiar. That was never what was going on in history in magic it was it was spirits always and so I think that's a an important misconception to make sure people are aware of. When we start to think of them as real then they have meaning and there's meaning behind what we're doing and the reasons why we're doing it, he says.
