Power animals may appear as a magician performs routine daily activities or in a dream when they sleep. Each time that they enter a magician's life with a sacred communication, it is a blessing from Spirit.

A Familiar is an animal, pet, or a spiritual entity that appears in the form of animal, who assists the practitioner in the practice of Magic. Common magical helpers in folklore were cats, toads, hares, and lizards.

Astral Projection is the process of separating your astral body from your physical body and moving about at will in the astral plane (Fly Astral Plane). When magicians travel in their spirit form, they often have the ability to make themselves visible to others.

Since their spirit bodies are malleable to their thoughts, they often Shapeshift (Shapechange) into other forms such as birds, cat, dogs, wolves, or the facsimile of another person.
