Wow! Dion Fortune - that brought to mind her book, "The Magical for Britain". The other evening, my husband had the TV on, one of the history channels (via antenna, NOT a paid channel - 'free' TV is slimy enough & if it were up to me I wouldn't have the idiot box in my house. Sorry for the digression). Anyhow the announcer, in talking about upcoming programs, asked "did Great Britain use magic to help win WWII?". I never did find out when this program would be broadcast. Nevertheless, I thought it was an interesting teaser. It would have been interesting to hear if that program would have offered more than the usual silliness.
On an unrelated note, last night on the radio, I heard that not only is Saudi Arabia going to cut oil production for the rest of the year, but neighboring countries doing so as well. But oddly enough, when I was reflecting on that bit of news, I did not get the usual feeling of dread, but got a reassuring sense that this is ultimately a positive development for the people this country (USA), in spite of all the difficulties and hardship*! This 'sense' didn't seem to come from my own thoughts or wishful thinking, but rather from something/someone 'out there'. Any ideas of what this could be? Or am I simply deluded? (FYI - there was no commentary on this announcement, and certainly no mention of "they'll think of something". *difficulties & hardships relative to the USA, many other places face greater problems.
