>the transformation from carrot to cake is following a recipe, quite literally the same as what you find in grimoires, it's a kind of ritual transformation.
E- fucking -xactly. For you this is obv because your witchy way of thinking and the "kitchen" way of operating but his mind is like a circuit board that is connecting to concepts and he considers those concepts the "baseline of reality". Which is kinda true in his case because he is doing magic with it but helping those concepts and circuits to "expand" is hard because instead of using the same circuitry he needs to open and connect to something that "supposedly" does not exist for him while it is in his brain already but dormant.
>Maybe Shiva-anon can understand you better
Yeah my left brain is twitching because his basic analytic skills are better than mine because I supplement mine with intuition so I can skip a bunch of processes. Intuitive leaps. For me my analytic skills serve as a supplemental force so I don't completely lose the sight of my thinking processes and not my entire foundation for "thinking". Now I have to untangle what he is not getting because the problem is that he is getting it already but some minor thing is not clicking for him. It's like making a puzzle and a single puzzle piece can connect with the wrong piece and after that the whole puzzle becomes incomplete-able because you cannot even consider that a single piece was put together wrongly and considering that a single piece was put together wrongly might mean the whole puzzle is put together wrongly and the mind just panics and short circuits then starts using fall back mechanisms to continue your thinking processes. The worst part is I have to become aware what kind of scientific understanding angle he is trying to force upon the workings of the spirit to untangle that. It is a good exercise for practicing Upaya for sure.
