Thaumaturgy 101 - First Period, Thursday - 2/5

Today's class was once again in the Danger Shop, a resource she was really starting to enjoy.

"All right class. Today, we'll be working on two things: meditation and visualization. Both of these are absolutely key to thaumaturgy and have other benefits as well. If you tend to be a more stressful type, meditation might assist you in the future. And visualization is always useful to keep goals and plans clear and focused. As talking about it is both boring and entirely unhelpful, we'll be doing three exercises today.

"Consider the third one 'extra credit', all right?

"Now, onward we go."

Agnes frowned. That was wizard magic, and she was a witch. The two schools were similar, but... Well, different. Besides, she didn't really know if she COULD hold in her mind the entirety of everything that an apple was, all at once.

Instead, what she visualized was a somewhat simple apple, and a very DETAILED image of what would happen to the podium-thing if it provided her with a less-than-perfect apple.
