Wand or Cup?

If only one fifth of your spells work you have real power.

If only one fifth of your divinations work you have a serious disability.

Spells cast well in advance can take advantage of the copious chaos in the interim, but that same chaos will tend to reduce divination to a shambles.

’Enchant Long and Divine Short.’

Yes indeed, engrave that in Enochian, Ouranian Barbaric and in the vernacular on your altar.

This supremely important dictum ranks alongside such universal items of wisdom as ’Don’t Trust People In Suits’ and ’Don’t Eat Anything Bigger Than Your Head.’

Waste not your energies on considerations of fate and destiny, go forth and make the universe do what you want!
