Glamour Magic Overview

[Music] hi i'm olivia let's talk about glamour magic glamour magic is one of the top topics that i get asked about and it's taken me forever to make this video just because it was really hard to figure out how to structure this video being that glamour magic is such a big umbrella also one of the biggest pieces of magic that meld with the mundane and it really depends on who you talk to what they define as glamour magic and what they don't but essentially the very basis of what glamour magic is is changing the way something or someone is being perceived that's it like that is the baseline of what glamour magic is because it is really just a shift of perception it's an influence in how something is being perceived glamour magic usually isn't the best thing to rely on by itself it's a really good add-on it's one of those things that once you add on to something that's already been in a working a ritual that you've already been doing a spell that you've already been working combining with mundane and actual physical action glamour magic is a really good umph it's a really good push it's a really good detail and as we know the devil is in the details another thing is glamours are best used in layers so you can do one glamour for the day but it's best if you're layering on and we'll talk about that as we go through so we'll just go straight into it like i said the basics of a glamour is changing the way something or someone is being perceived but you have to keep in mind that each person will perceive that differently that energy that you're putting out so it will be a basis line of energy of a specific intention or a specific way of being perceived that you're trying to glamorize yourself or a space or whatever different people will perceive that same thing as different things so for example if you're doing a glamour to come off more confident person a that you come into contact with with that glamour on might see you as inspiring it's really inspiring that that person is so confident whereas person b might be intimidated by that person a is probably a lot more secure in themselves in whatever field or whatever that this may what kind of situation this might be whereas person b might be a little more insecure so in turn making them perceive you as intimidating and having their walls come up rather than feel inspired or see you as wow they're really really confident but instead of taking that as a good thing they might take it as a negative thing so keep that in mind because you can only control so much right and that's a whole other topic as such as many things are in this field but maybe we can make an over t video about different energies and all that stuff when it comes to glamour magic the first thing that comes to mind is beauty is lust is attraction right and those are very popular ways of using glamour magic that is probably the one of the top ways that glare magic is used however glamorous can be used in so many other different ways and we'll go through those in a little bit okay so there's going to be two separate sections both fall under glamors both are effective but one is seen as less magical than the other one however it doesn't really matter right there's intention that goes behind both of those things and there's going to be effects from both so now before we hop straight into this now would be a good time to thank my sponsor and what better video than a glamour video to introduce anna louisa if you don't know anna louisa they are an eco-friendly jewelry company 100 recycled gold into their 100 carbon and water neutral you'll see me wearing their pieces in almost every single one of my videos one of my favorite things about being sponsored by them is that i am able to receive these and gift them to the people that i care about and know that enjoy jewelry i believe they're also having a valentine's day sale at the moment so if you're interested in getting any new jewelry for yourself or someone else in your life that likes jewelry then i'll leave a link down in the description below but as always thank you annalisa for sponsoring me and allowing me to make the videos that i make but let's go back into glamors so physical glamours this is more mundane type of things things that maybe people wouldn't usually put under magic but as most of us know we are spirits with physical bodies right so we're always continuously doing magic we just don't know it or maybe are fully aware of it um and it's not usually intentionally directed with that in mind now despite the fact that they may feel or sound or seem less magical it doesn't mean that they are less effective by any means so so clearly things like fashion or makeup are a huge player in glare magic the things that you wear the colors that you wear and you'll hear this and we'll get to that in a second color psychology have a huge effect on how you are perceived or how a space is perceived this also goes into interior design i'm sure many of you are familiar with feng shui the chinese art of setting up a flow and energy flow in a room for specific intentions now i'll leave a link here for like a feng shui 101 or do's and don'ts type of thing and she has a wonderful channel that has a lot of different information on feng shui so if that's something that interests you then go ahead and check that out but interior design can make or break a room so i'm sure you've been in a lot of different spaces where maybe some spaces feel a lot more stagnant or stuffy whereas other spaces feel much more spacious or comfortable or relaxing and depending on how you set up a room and the colors that you use and the way that you decorate and design a room aesthetics are a very important thing of psychology of how we interact with our environment and how we feel in our environment you see this in marketing all the time you commonly you'll see colors like red and yellow and dark lighting in restaurants because it's known to make you feel hungrier same thing with red red is known to excite the mind it's it's very bold it's eye-catching and it's loud right and it's hot so you see this all over in places or on items that promote energy or promote lust or promote power or promote attraction so keep that in mind that brings us into color psychology which is absolutely fascinating the thing about color psychology and using this in the magical realm or the mundane realm it doesn't really matter i suppose your upbringing your culture will have a huge effect on how colors correspond with you so one color may mean something different to another person and that's okay there's actually an article that i found that was really interesting talking about um i think it was color psychology with marketing well there's a few some of them were behind paywalls so i'm not going to link those because unless you want to pay 30 to read like a 12 page paper i i'm just not going to link those but i will link the one that i found that is not behind a paywall and there's other links that are attached to that that are behind paywalls so if you're curious and doing any further research you're more than welcome but i'll just link that one down below that i thought was kind of interesting the the color correspondence due to kind of your culture and your environment bring us back to the idea that you can do a glamour and two people will probably perceive that same glamour that same energy in different ways and it just depends on the person uh the last two things are body language and tone so things like mannerisms and the way that you carry yourself and the way that you speak those things have a huge impact on the way that people perceive you and this one takes practice this one takes a lot of being very mindful of listening to yourself and paying attention to yourself but you can get into a habit depending on if you want to or if you're being very very mindful and very observant in order to keep those specific mannerisms and that tone in check these things aren't technically magical but i would put them under magical because they do shift energy right they do have intentions behind them so that's the physical side of the glamors let's go into the magical side of glamours the everybody's favorite things like using shields if you are unfamiliar with what a shield is or what shielding is then i have a video of just a couple of basic things that i personally think that every practitioner should be comfortable with and should know or at least be working on basically shielding is putting up a shield by visualizing or just meditating on feeling this shield around you so if you're not good with visualizing you can also just feel that energy shielding around you and most of the time if you are visualizing most people will use something like like a white or gold light or kind of like a sheer like force field type of thing and that's a really good basic everyday shield that you can just put up and take down at the end of the day but if you want to use it as a glamour it is kind of an energy shift right so it's a very subtle form of glamour but it is effective and you can put up the shield and change the colors of what you're visualizing you can change the texture so play around with that and see how that differs makes a difference throughout your day and like i said it's going to be very subtle but continue it for like a week and see that difference try shifting between colors or even elements what happens if your shield is made of fire what happens if your shield is made of cold stone earth or ice next is charging things so shower and bath magic super super common you can use magical oils or bath salts that you've charged into the bath and literally allowing it to coat your body and your spiritual form in turn changing and manipulating the energy around you in order to glamour that into whatever your intention is to glamour into if you don't have a bathtub that's fine a lot of people fret over that don't you can use magical soaps or just regular soaps that you turn into magical soaps by charging them you can carve sigils into them or charging them in any other kind of way that you wish or you can order different magical soaps from different suppliers i like mine from the bronx witch allie she makes wonderful soaps and i still always use them i also use soaps from ohio botanica i will link both of those down below oh hi botanica i don't think that she charges them magically but they're gorgeous soaps they smell great and i personally love using those in my shower magic so there's that uh the next one very popular a lot of people like to use makeup in their practice i think in this it was the 1700s or 1800s that lipstick was considered witchcraft because you were you were deceiving men and tricking them into marriage or something like that there was a whole thing about how there was a law that was passed in england which is not true there was never a law that was passed in england to deem this as witchcraft and sentence anybody but that's neither here nor there so you can charge your makeup for anything you wish it doesn't have to just be attraction right and we'll talk about that like i said in a second a really easy way that you can add glamours into your makeup routine is if you add sigils into your foundation or your lotion or your sunscreen and activate it as you smear it away and rub it in or another example is charging your lipstick and or chapstick if you don't wear any makeup for making your words sound sweeter or more enticing or more alluring or more authoritative so those are the more magical sides of glamour let's move into how to actually use glamours so keep in mind like we said in the beginning a glamour is specifically to change the way something or someone is perceived that's it right that's the baseline that's why these are good in layers and why they're good as add-ons so for example let's use an example right i used to work on the hollywood walk in la and i served at a restaurant and at a bar and often they would close at anywhere between midnight and 2 a.m and if i was working late that night i would be getting off anywhere between midnight and 2 a.m and i would take the metro which is this uh subway essentially underground from the hollywood walk back to my apartment and doing that as a young woman alone in the middle of the night on the hollywood walk in a huge frantic city you know probably not the safest thing in the world so along with using common sense such as staying alert or having a co-worker walk with me if they were available too not putting my headphones in completely and zoning out and not paying attention to what's happening around me and then also adding little protection charms like just general protection charms and travel protection charms i can also add a glamour to add that extra little umph and the glamour specifically was to put off that energy of just don't [ __ ] talk to me don't look at me don't breathe in my direction i don't want to interact with anybody and it was less of like an intimidating dominating powerful type of vibe it was more of just don't [ __ ] talk to me it was a repellent it was more to just ward off anybody who looked in my direction with the intention to interact with me and i wanted to get to point a to point b without being perceived and if i was perceived it was in a way that would ward off them wanting to interact with me in the first place so there's two little glamors here right that i am either somewhat invisible i'm not memorable i blend into the background i am an extra in a movie you don't remember me you don't even remember what i looked like where i was sitting you don't remember me i'm just a passerby right i'm one of those faceless people in your dreams is the first kind of part of that glamour the other part is if i am perceived if somebody makes eye contact with me and is like oh i'm gonna go talk to her the energy that is giving off is do not [ __ ] try me don't don't even don't breathe in my direction don't perceive me it's kind of like a two-in-one right and that was the idea behind that glamour and it ended up working fairly well for the most part you know didn't didn't stop everyone and like i said the glamour itself is not a protection spell do not use this glamour as your only protection spell because it's not it does not protect you it changes the way people perceive you but it does not protect you that is not what that energy shift that energy manipulation is doing so if you are looking for a protection spell do not only use a glamour okay example two say you're going to a job network event and you're gonna do a presentation on top of already researching who's going to be there and preparing your presentation and your speech and your slideshow or whatever mundane before magical then you can also do your workings and your rituals for attracting long-term and loyal clients opening opportunity for really good collaborations with trustworthy and productive partners right so your you got the mundane you got the other magical side and then a glamour for the actual day of the networking event so like i said this is an add-on right these are layers you would do the glamours to be perceived as confident and enticing and it depends on what your company or what your presentation is all about so maybe you want to come off very exciting and youthful and creative and full of new ideas i would probably suggest you to wear yellow or orange something that does have this pop of really youthful and exciting something that does hold the energy of having a lot of energy of having that creativity of having new ideas and forward momentum whereas if you wanted to come off professional but very trustworthy and loyal and easy going then i would suggest that you would wear blue now on the flip side say you are negotiating in these terms or you want to come off very authoritative and formal and you would be wearing black i in that sense would also charge chapstick or lipstick in order for that glamour that i mentioned earlier to have my words come off with a meaning or to be to have my words be very alluring or be very inspirational or interesting if it was a very idea driven type of presentation i would probably do something with my eyes you know if you wore makeup or think about drawing more attention to the face so that people are looking at you when you're speaking and understanding what you're saying and understanding your goal and what you want for your company or what you want for your presentation or say your presentation is very visual you have a lot of prototypes and graphs and things that you want to point to and have people draw their attention to those i would focus on putting a lot more attention on my hands so that i'd be able to shift their attention as i you know make make mannerisms or some sort and again this also brings into body language and tone these things are really important especially for you know making presentations or public speaking but also if i was approached on the train right i would have those mannerisms it wouldn't be to be alluring and to be inspirational in something that draws people in no it'd be the opposite it would be very standoffish and give you that impression of that pushback and i mentioned color theory i linked a website down below that gives you a really good general idea of all the different influences and the correspondences that people naturally have with colors but it is set more in like the western type of culture you're more than welcome to just stick with the correspondences that work best for you that is pretty much it some closing tips experiment with one glamour consistently and see its effects like i said glamours are fairly subtle so keep that in mind that's why they're very good in layers don't rely so much on just one single glamour right do do layers do the chapstick do the bath do the shielding do the shower whatever but if you do all three of those it's going to be layered and a little more effective than if you were just to do the shield or just to do the chapstick or lipstick or whatever and the last tip is when you're trying to harness that perception what you want to be perceived as really really focus on that specific energy like what does that feel like what does it feel like when that really alluring person walks in the room or when they're around what does that feel like to you right when if you know somebody who is just alluring and that you don't know why they're just there's just something about them that's just enticing what does that feel like what does that feel like harness that and really really direct that energy onto you same thing with intimidating what does it feel like when somebody ridiculously intimidating is in that room or is looking at you or is interacting around you or with you what does that feel like take that and direct it on to you what about somebody who's super easy going and really easy to talk to how does that feel take that energy and project it back on to you so that is kind of the whole 101 of glamour in my personal opinion it's one of the simplest forms of magic i feel like it's brushed over a lot there's not a lot of books that i've seen that are on glamour magic that really did anything for me that are um that i read that was like clicked for me at all but maybe it's just because there's not a whole lot to it uh there i mean it does take practice as with everything this is why it's called practicing i love blender magic glamour magic is a huge piece of what i use i absolutely adore it and maybe it's the earth signs in me or whatever but clearly i love aesthetics i feel like aesthetics are wildly important and especially for what i do being that i my job is to work on a visual platform glamour magic is kind of right up my alley i adore it but many of you who are photographers filmmakers uh artists fashionistas whatever you may be under that visual mediums are one of the heights of glamour magic so if you already are good at something like that then you are probably already doing glamour magic without maybe even knowing it and now that you know you can harness that and really utilize that to your advantage so i hope that you do that okay let's move on to my patreon questions so for those of you who don't know on my patreon i open a q a for the one-on-one type of videos or kind of instructional sit-down lecture type of videos and i open up a q a that all the patreons can ask questions and there were a lot of questions on this one so i'm i'm really excited to go through them if i already answered it in the video i will skip it just because i'm short on time today and i gotta i have a deadline for this video so i gotta get this up wow there's a lot oh i'm so excited okay perfect so if i already answered it in the video i'm just going to skip it and if somebody already asked it and i already answered it in the q a and somebody else asks the same kind of question i will also skip it so don't feel like i'm just trying to leave you out or anything if you don't see your question in there it's probably just because i already answered it okay so first one can glamour magic be used to help with how you view yourself such as drawing self-love of your own beauty thank you oh what an interesting question i don't think i've ever used it for that um i don't see why not going to be more of like a shadow work type of thing and less as a glamour however i do think that raising energy and dressing yourself in a certain way and seeing yourself in a certain light can really change things and that would essentially be a glamour because you are shifting your perspective of how you see yourself so yeah i would say yes but i do think it would be a little bit of a different execution it i do think that it would be a little more on the internal work side and less external how do we actually change our aura what type of little spells can we use on a daily basis and finally how does it work on us as it does on others in front of us um so the first question how do we actually change our aura that's going to be a lot of internal work because auras are kind of that outward projection of energy so you know how when you meet somebody and you're just like they're just a good like you just you just know it's the barista at starbucks and there's just something about them that you're just like you're just a good person i bet like i i could just look at you and all you did was ask me for my order and if i wanted an extra shot of espresso and then you know called out my name and i grabbed it whatever but you can just tell with that barista like there's just that aura about them that they're just a good person then there's those other people who you meet and you're like oh my god you're just like three degrees off and i don't like that that's kind of the aura right changing your aura is to change yourself it's gonna be a lot of internal work that's it's not really an easy fix it's not really an easy change uh but with a lot of persistence and with a lot of mindfulness and observation and trial and error i do think that you can change your aura see what type of little spells can we use on a daily basis shielding and makeup and fashion those are probably the three top things or makeup i say makeup but what i mean by makeup that also goes into if you're changing your hair color or your hair style that day that also means lotion or chapstick i don't mean just makeup as in like painting you know painting your face which i personally like it feels like painting every day and finally how does it work on us as it does on others in front of us i'm not quite sure what you mean by that last part so i'm really sorry i'm just not going to answer it because i i really just don't understand what you were asking um so sorry all right uh my question would be about the most unusual use of glamour you've heard or used since i think since i would think of seduction glamour or a glamour for more confidence in a job interview but there must be so many more applications the most unusual that's a good question i don't think there's like a unusual way that i can think of right off the top of my head hmm yeah i think maybe just the other end of the spectrum would be to fade into the background because most people think glamour is attention drawing all the time and while most of the time it is i often like to use glamors to just fade into the background so people just don't remember me i'm forgettable i don't want to be perceived especially on days as many of you know i'm fairly introverted so i don't have a big social battery and as much as i love spending time with people and meeting people i just don't have a big social battery to do that all the time so when i am low on that social battery that's the type of glamour that i use fairly often is to just fade to the background people don't really like notice me i'm just a fly on the wall and uh that one's actually interesting if you can if you can get really good at that one and just become [Music] kind of a fly on the wall people do sometimes forget that you're there and will say things that maybe they didn't realize somebody else was in the room or something and you hear a lot of interesting stuff that paired with like a truth serum oil yeah okay next question what is the best glamour you would recommend and how would you go about doing it um depends i don't have a straightforward answer for any of these depends on what you need that day like i said social battery super low that's the glamour i'm doing is fly on the wall i don't want to be seen or perceived or remembered or i don't want to attract any kind of really attention whereas maybe i'm going to the networking event i want to be seen as confident i want people to be like wow who is that and what what is she all about i want to talk to her i want to network with her so it just depends on what that day is and depending on what glamour you need that day depends on how you apply it so if it's a shield then you know most of the time i would use shields for more like defensive feeling glamours you can also use shields as in if you're going into a difficult conversation and you are knowing that this person is going to be somewhat aggressive with what they're saying and how they go about it you can put that shield up but maybe change instead of it's a white light it's a pink light so whatever they're saying it is filtered through and you're not taking that to heart but at least they can feel that it's not getting through to you but there's also that layer of compassion to it next question may sound a little dumb but are there ways to do glamour magic that don't include makeup um yes we covered that one and that's not a dumb question i would love to know some basics of why somebody would typically be interested in using glamour magic and an example of simple daily use contrasted with an example of somebody wanting to go all out and crank it all the way up so first part of your question i love this question why would somebody want to use glamour magic well why wouldn't you you are perceived all the time the way that people perceive us is important because that is our environment whether we like it or not it just is and no we shouldn't really care about what people think and that shouldn't have an effect on how we view ourselves and how we go about the world unfortunately it does have an effect so say you're trying to get a promotion at work if your boss doesn't see you as loyal or confident enough to promote then the odds of you being promoted is going to be significantly lower it's just kind of like a boost of helping maneuver your way in your environment a little easier and to your advantage and like i said i believe that people use glamours all the time it's just they aren't fully aware of it other part of this question which i loved an example of a simple daily use contrasted with an example of somebody wanting to crank it all the way up most simple way to do any kind of glamour is choose the color that you're feeling that day contrasted with cranking it all the way up like i said it's layers it's just layers i suppose the the biggest glamour ritual that you could do is a glamour bath or a glamour shower is really putting all of your intention and really putting all of the energy of how you want to glamour yourself into that bath or showers you know into the soaps or into the salt and lighting candles if you are able to do that safely lighting the incense and kind of making a ritual you can chant something if you wish and make it a little more ritualistic and that would probably be cranking it all the way up but in reality the highest notch you can go is really layering it so if you did do that big bath ritual every week or every month or something on the full moon and then also did daily layered glamours i think that would be kind of cranking it up but like i said layers layers next question what kind of glamour magic would you recommend for confidence and what is the best for protection in glamour magic so for confidence uh colors like i said colors and also working on the mundane version is really really working with how you're holding yourself your mannerisms and your tone and again this is going to be kind of more internal work rather than a glamour but it does help but it does lead into it and it does help of just figuring out what pieces you are not confident in and why and how you can kind of fix that and that will help significantly in boosting your glamour magic because again just because you kind of put a mask on stuff doesn't really mean you can't see through it right so like if oh actually this question there's a question in here that covers that so we'll get into that in a second and then what is best for protection glamour magic we covered that um don't use it as protection use it as an add-on use it as a little boost but do not use glamour magic as protection magic next question what are the limits of glamour magic like what would you not use it for fantastic question and again we did kind of cover this of it is not a protection spell it is not an attraction spell which i suppose you can argue that it just depends because glamour magic isn't reaching out and attracting things right like if you're doing a luck glamour then you're being perceived as lucky but it does not mean that it is giving you luck right now maybe because you're being perceived as lucky people are treating you that way and you're getting more benefits in that sense but you are not reaching out into the universe and manipulating energy and attracting luck same thing with you are glamoring yourself for being attractive people are perceiving you as more attractive and alluring but it does not mean that you are reaching out and attracting these people with that energy manipulation you are being perceived so remember that it is more of like a cloak it is more of just the way that you are being looked at is just the way that you are being seen i know i keep using the word perceived but that's literally just the only word that i can think of so it is just that it is not reaching out into the energy fields and the the universe and manipulating situations it's purely how people are understanding your current being that's the limit that's the limit this is why you do not use it for protection magic this is why you do not use it for money magic and it's an add-on it's great they're they're great add-ons add these on to your spells by far they will make a difference but do not rely on glamour magic alone so that would be the limits would you have any advice about making a beauty altar where you put on glamour magic do you have any herbs you specifically think work best for glamour magic spells and have you ever had glamour magic go wrong uh okay so first question in that is any advice of making a beauty altar on glamour magic wherever you want that's there are no straightforward answers in a lot of this um i have mine in my bathroom i really like the way mine is set up just set it up how you want my advice is just build it how you like it doesn't have to be big you don't even have to have really an altar for glamour magic or beauty magic if you don't wish have any herbs that you personally think work best for glamour magic it depends on the glamour depends on the intention there's endless like there's not really like any specific herbs that i'm like this one it just it really just depends on what kind of glamour you're going for and have you ever had glamour magic go wrong not i guess not wrong just more of i wasn't being perceived in the way that i was hoping it's not that the glamour has gone wrong it's just that the way that other people were perceiving it was just not in the way that maybe i had hoped or expected uh next question what is the difference between a glamour and just wearing charmed jewelry or accessories during your day fantastic question so glamour like i said perceived right i'm being perceived so if that charm specifically is to when you're wearing it is to be perceived in a specific way then that would be a glamour but if that charm such as this one is for protection it's not to be perceived in any certain way just because i'm wearing this charm i'm not going to be perceived i'm protected you know it's maybe i am i don't know but i didn't charge it for that that's not what i made it for right so that's the difference is if you're charging that jewelry in a glamour sense in order for whenever you are wearing this piece of jewelry to be perceived as this then that's a glamour if it's not if it's just to attract luck or attract money or attract a lover or be a protection or be a ward whatever it is then it's not a glamour so great question okay i have to go to class i'll be right back all right if the lighting is different or anything is offset it's because it is i just got back from teaching class so kind of cut things up anyway let's continue shall we uh can glamors be used to make a permanent or long-lasting change like can you use a glamour so much that now it's just your reality and you don't need to put on a glamour anymore oh i think yes uh because a lot of glamour is like i said being very aware of how you are being perceived that's kind of the first step it's how you're being perceived now and how you want to change that right if you are using something like mannerisms or you're focusing on your tone and you do that so often then it kind of just becomes a habit right it just becomes second nature i don't think in the sense of like if you do a bath every single day if you do a glamour bath or if you do um a shield and glamour that i don't think that that's going to just stick right you're going to have to renew it the next question can you cast glamour magic on other people other than yourself and how would that work yes yeah you can just as pretty much any magic you can cast glamours on other people you can give somebody you know something like a charm that would glamor them or charm lipstick or charm chapstick and or lotion or whatever and give that to them for them to wear as an extension to that can you cast glamours on groups of people yes you can but it's very difficult a big reason is because in order to harness the specific glamour energy that you want and how you want this group of people to be perceived everybody has to be on board everybody has to be on the same page and that is much easier said than done can glamour magic be used to heighten a feeling whether that's between yourself or to other people yes but like i said people react to specific energies differently so you really can't tell unless you've done it so if i know somebody really well and i've done this glamour around them then i kind of understand how they're going to perceive it how they're going to receive it if it's like an attraction or a lust glamour and you've not done this with somebody before with a specific person then yes it can but it just depends on the person right so for example i'm on the a scale like i'm on the asexual spectrum so if somebody were to do like a lust glamour on them i probably wouldn't be affected whatsoever like the odds of that having any effect on me whatsoever is close to zero whereas if my partner did a glamour lust spell or something then i'd probably be like all into it but it just depends because of how my energy is of how i am whereas if there's somebody else who's into having another partner then yeah that that lust spell would probably have a big impact so it just depends would you consider a glam oh this one i've been waiting for this one would you consider glamour magic to be deceitful or addictive and where would you draw the line i hear this argument no argument i hear this point or this theory a lot in glamour magic especially especially in glamour magic it depends as with almost all of my answers it just depends because what is the intention of you using glamour magic it's a tool just like magic just like energy just like literally anything else it's a tool you can use that how you wish to use that so if you are going into a job interview and you're glamorizing yourself to come off as trustworthy and loyal and reliable but you know fully that you have every intention of stealing from the cash register then yeah it's deceivable because you are using it as a deceitful tool it's the same thing as if somebody were to cast an attraction spell specifically around someone who they know has an attraction to them but they know fully that they are not interested they just want the attention then yes you're being a dick but it's because you're using it that way whereas if you're going into a job interview and you you want this job you're going to be reliable you're going to be honest you're going to be good at this job then no why would you you just want to be perceived that way because that is what your intention is is going into this job it's just a tool just as everything else blessing in bane grows on one stock it's up to the practitioner now addictive i suppose it could be i don't see an issue with you using it all the time because i use glamour magic almost on the daily and like i said of course a big part of my job and my career is to be perceived so yes i'm going to use glamour magic in order to help my career and help the people who are receiving my information get the most out of that again it just depends on how you're using it if you're using it because you feel like you need to hide behind some sort of energetic mask all the time without working on yourself behind the scenes like if you are glamorizing yourself to be this trustworthy person you're like oh i'm i'm just going to glamorize myself and have people tell me everything and they're going to just spill their guts to me all the time and i'm super trustworthy but you then you turn around and you're telling other people their business right like and you're not working on that you're not actively being like i'm going to be better at staying in my lane and minding my own goddamn business you know like if you're not actively working on that and then you're also turning around and using it to be deceitful then because you enjoy this addictive of people always telling you all the drama and all the tea then yeah it's a bad thing right but it just depends on the person and how they're using the tool question what is your favorite glamour and why hmm i don't really have like a specific favorite glamour that's not a very good answer but i don't think i have one in mind that i specifically love it just depends on what i'm looking for that day hi olivia hi how about utilizing glamour magic to help develop a healthy sense of self love without becoming narcissistic so here's a big thing that i've noticed and especially again it it goes back to pole class a lot because that's just where i i see a lot of transformation and i see a lot of people doing a little bit of glamour magic without knowing it uh but a big thing about you know self-love and confidence you are allowed to love yourself and love things about yourself and be proud of yourself publicly [Music] the thing that teeters it over to unhealthy is when you think that you are better than other people right so confidence is not i'm better than everyone confidence is i deserve the best i am great i'm amazing i'm strong i'm gorgeous right it is not i am prettier than everyone else i'm stronger than everyone else it's not that that's when it's bad so i i kind of see a lot of this in my students fairly often of oh you know i don't no no like you're sexier than me like you're prettier than me no everybody's gorgeous everybody's strong everybody's capable and you're allowed to voice that and feel that about yourself so i'm allowed to post something on my instagram and be like damn i look [ __ ] hot today that's allowed because i'm not bringing anybody else down if somebody else posted damn i'm looking hot today i'd be like yes you are you know there's no reason they're not coming out and i'm not coming out being like wow i'm hotter than you that's that's that line right it's when you are pulling other people down is when there's an issue so that was my whole rant i see that a lot and it just it upsets me that people don't utilize that like you're allowed you're allowed to hype yourself up you're you should hype yourself up wow that went on a whole tangent but i feel passionate about that um yeah so we kind of covered a lot of that i hope that kind of answered your questions uh let's see oh this kind of goes into what we just talked about what do you do when you need self a self-positive boast when you're feeling negative about your appearance or your body i dress myself up i love feeling luxurious and feeling fancy and feeling worth it and when i don't feel good about myself i make myself look good for myself like i don't care if somebody else doesn't like the way that i'm dressing or makeup or whatever but if i think that i look good then i look good when i dance i love to dance and that's that's probably very clear that i love to dance that's a big thing that puts me back in my body and kind of grounds me uh if i'm a little bit too much in my head about negative body image and whatnot and also movement and any kind of exercise will boost you up it has that has that dopamine you know so that's also going to help are there any colors numbers objects in specific that you use exclusively for glamour magic and what day of the week would you recommend and why it just depends on the glamour it depends on the glamour all right we're in the home stretch since a few years i have a strong pull towards aphrodite and i wonder if you have any recommendations in how i could implement her energy in glamour work so i don't really do deity work so i and i definitely have not worked with aphrodite so unfortunately i can't give you any advice but if anybody has advice you know pop it down in the comments or check out the discord there's also a link to that and a lot of people are fairly helpful on there in places that i do not have experience with how often would you need to cast a glamour i would assume it's something you would continue to work into your daily practice or when you can until your intended outcome in a fests what are ways to work it in your daily practice so how often would you need a cast glamour as often as you want like i said almost everybody casts glamours without really knowing it if you are intentionally choosing what you're wearing the color that you're wearing due to your mood or due to what you have to do that day then you're already kind of doing glamours anyway same thing with makeup if you are going for something super bold because you want to be noticed that day then you are doing a glamour so you probably already do glamors almost every day um what are different ways to work it into your daily practice and we already talked about that shielding any kind of makeup or fashion if you set up your room in a very specific way in order to let the energy flow in a very specific way then that is also in my opinion a glamour because it's being perceived and pushing energy in a certain way that you're perceiving your environment sorry if i'm late you're not you're good my question is can you still utilize glamour magic in an online setting if if so how might it vary from standard glamour magic what a good question so yes you can absolutely use glamour magic in an online setting i clearly use it but that's because i focus a lot on aesthetic i have a visual platform instagram youtube and then even pull it's very visual of the shapes that you're making so aesthetics are so ingrained in kind of just everything that i do in general also i just love them who doesn't love aesthetics but the way that my videos come off are going to have an effect on how you are perceiving the information that i'm giving you and how you're absorbing all of that so if i have something that is super grainy and my audio is [ __ ] and maybe i'm super boring to listen to and or look at any of those then that lowers the chance of you absorbing anything of you being attentive of you being interested but if i can have something that is somewhat aesthetically pleasing which is why i like to look nice for you all right it's a pop right it's more interesting to look at especially if i match my environment x y and z so that would be kind of considered glamoring as well as really paying attention to the color scheme of your instagram what is it called feed your instagram feed paying attention to that paying attention to consistency in thumbnail colors and thumbnail styles now i have not really been doing that recently but that doesn't matter right now now for the magical side of it frankie actually from chaotic witch on they taught me to do sigils behind things like thumbnails or profile photos so depending on what that sigil is it can be used as a glamour now granted you can also use it for other things but you can use it to kind of have that perception changed depending on what you're looking at the difference would be that it's more i suppose outward and it's more in the element of air because of just where it is where you're working you're working a lot more in the element of air rather than in the element of self and spirit you're going to be working mostly in the element of error due to that corresponding with technology and communication and all that jazz uh that is a really good question though okay last one i just learned that lemongrass can be used in glamour magic but there was no hints on how it could be used recommendations well however you would use an herb in any other working it can be adapted so when i think of lemongrass i you could use it in a lust glamour but i like to use lemongrass generally just magically in things like like uncrossings or luck or money road opening type of work so i personally would use lemongrass in order to glamour myself to come off as like a breath of fresh air so especially in like a job interview if you know that they're getting a lot of applicants and you can get into the room with them i would use lemongrass and aiding my glamour in coming off as like when i enter the room or when i'm talking to the interviewer the person is like oh my god finally like you just seem like a breath of fresh air you're just opportunities are open this this feels good right that's kind of how i'd use it but it's the same thing with any herb if you however you're using it just magically in general think of how that herb feels and how you perceive that herb so clove would be kind of like it has that darker sensual earthy and like kind of spicy fiery type of vibe so that is how i would use clove how ever i would use something like chamomile to come off as sweet and very kind and very warm and welcoming so however you use herbs just in general magically think of how that herb could help you be perceived in glamour and that is the last question so thank you patreons so much for all of your wonderful questions like i said if i didn't answer your question i probably already did in the video or it was just a double question um so i promise i wasn't just ignoring you i hope that this helped i hope that this gave you a little more information on what glamours are and how you can use them lastly i do want to thank ana louisa for sponsoring this video i super appreciate it and it's one of the things that makes this all possible and if you're interested in that valentine's day sale there's a link down below but that's all there is for this video i really hope this helped as always thank you so much for watching best of luck be kind to each other and may your gods treat you as you've treated others bye [Music] you
