First off, This is a great topic and one I have been pondering on for quite some time. I am weighing the difference of "helping" someone and interfearing with a life lesson that the person NEEDS to learn! Part of mine deals with my 14 yr old son. There is such a huge greay area arround it, in the mundain as well as magical. How far does one go, without permission or even with oppisiton? I won't go into detail though, as it's too long a tale.
It makes me think hard, because IF I "interfear", it could be helpful. Yet, perhaps it would just make things worse because the "lesson" presented will repeat itself until the boy "gets it"! How does one tell which way is the "lesser harm"? Ok, I am probably confusing the issue now. ;)
It sure is about the struggle that each of us faces with the greay area. In some situations, I wouldnt waste a heartbeat to proceed, and there's some I won't touch...then there is the area that is totally quesitonable!
Ds made a choice, no actually DEMANDED. It is not in his best intrest. Nothin I can physically do about it. Yet I want so badly to "help". Knowing it will fall on deaf ears, I give space. Now, magically speaking...I do have some "grey area" breathing space to work with. I know I cannot rescue him from the consequences of his choices/actions least he NEVER learn and always look for someone to bail him out. Yet....He IS my son, and always will be my son no matter what. For the past few days, I have been sending him positive energies, while giving the rest (of the issue) to the universe to deal with, as my little wisom pales to the wisdom of the universe. At least I do know where he is, and am thankful for that. His birthday is in june, but right now that's in the distant future...and things are on a day to day basis. Figuring out the grey areas is definatly an individual thing. One way is to do divination for either way, and then go from there with the decision.
Another way to look at it is, Would you want someone to do that magical spell/action for YOU without your cosent? Then to take that persons views into account...Would they accept the magical help if asked? One other quesition...Is this a personal issue, or a more global one? would you ask the whole city's (where you live) permission to do a protections spell when the city is at risk for riot or bombing? If you answer differently for the individual and the city...why? Is not EACH person just as valueable as the whole? Yet each individual IS a part of the whole, is interconnected.
I know, I have opened more questions, than I have given an answer! Giving the cauldron of though a really good stir!
