There are many reasons why we grow out of believing in magic. We are taught to follow and fit into the beliefs that our family and society teach us. Our spontaneous creativity that comes from having a connection to our spirit and soul essence gets shut down as we go into a school system that tells us how to get with the program to become a worker bee from 9 to 5.
Our voice becomes controlled as we are told often enough that we are wrong if our imagination is a little too "out there" for some. Natural magic comes from having a connection with our soul's purpose and nature. Children show us the magic of life and if we hold onto a thread of the wonder child into adulthood we don't grow out of believing in magic.
Very often though we become somehow disconnected from that wonder child if we are too often told that we are stupid or compared to someone else's standards of how creativity should be expressed. If we are pushed into creative outlets that are really our parent's dreams we as children sometimes shut down our authentic self that knows who we are in favor of trying to please mom and dad.
We may be very sensitive people and not have anyone around that can relate to us so we close ourself off and hide that magical part of ourselves that sees with an artist's eye. We can see magic in everything when we have the eyes to see with our hearts. With magic comes colour, texture and lightness. There is a quote I heard recently:
"Those who can see the invisible can do the impossible."
Magic comes out of seemingly nothingness but there fails to ever be nothing around us. We are more than what our physical body senses can reveal to us. If we don't lose the connection with our soul essence of life we will always have a connection with magic for our soul sees through many dimensions of consciousness. With the vehicle of our body as our soul's divining rod we create magic in every moment of our lives with our voice, touch and action in the world.
If we grow out of believing in magic we can always grow back into believing in magic as we open our bodies to see from a soul perspective multi-dimensionally. We do this by becoming our own person and shedding the matrixes or belief systems of our parents and the oppressive spiritual beliefs we learned from the organizations we participated in as children to make way for the free flowing creativity that comes from our divine design being physically embodied.
We then let go of labels such as ADD and Autism and cease becoming depressed from being disconnected from our soul's true expression. When we grow back into believing in magic we embody the Feminine Principle of life which births from the invisible into the physically visible. This is magic!
