What was your inspiration to start practicing Magick?

Wow, that’s a loaded question. I was a pagan back in school, and did some magick then. I have always studied magick, but only seriously got back into practicing three years ago after, an event that changed my perceptions about myself and how the world works. Initially, I was wrapped up in my own ego, and wanted to use magick for selfish reasons. But instead, the Magick helped me re-ground myself, and realize what a piece of crap I had become.
