I do my best to merge them into one whole: my life.How do you balance your everyday mundane life with your magical practice?
I see magic as an unexpected consequence of normal human consciousness; one that everyone has, but few harness, like many human abilities. It becomes part of your life because it has (unknowingly as you say) always been part of your life.Magic is life. Life is a event of rituals. Rituals is practice.
You are using magic everyday unknowingly.
