              As has been shown, tactical magick is a system based on associations, symbology, and personal relevance. Though even as it exists as a magical system it can be used as a style with which one uses other systems. It is a versatile magical practice that can be adapted to any practitioner or magical system according to personal, socio-cultural, and magical needs. This path of magick feeds on knowledge and understanding of the hermetic relationships that make up reality.
              It is important for the practitioner, regardless of situation or agendas, to continue both the magical and academic education. Study history and science, explore philosophy and religion, become familiar with art, culture, and music. The more that a practitioner knows, especially in the areas of culture, science, and the occult, the more vast the practitioner’s repertoire for magical significance will be. For example, knowing the history and culture behind the various systems of magical symbols, ancient runes, and writing systems the more capable the practitioner will be of drawing upon those elements of reality in such a manner as to be useful in any situation. The more a practitioner knows and understands the natural world through the study of physics and chemistry the more able he or she will be at manifesting the will within the physical and etheric realms. Imagine how greatly the discipline of physics has influenced the study of magick, or how much of an impact modern chemistry has had on alchemy. By staying informed and ideally having at least a functional knowledge of these subjects, the better able the practitioner will be at taking advantage of the advancements of science, culture, and art in relation to the practice of magick. The more you know about science, culture, and art the more of a ‘database’ of associations, symbols, relationships, and magically significant elements of reality you will have at your fingertips.

Survival is all about evolution, and necessity is the catalyst of innovation.
