Here is a question. If you can FORCE open the third eye with a substance, synthetic or natural, are you sure you want to? My first experiences were sober, and not really pleasant. I shudder to think what those would be like with an amplifying substance involved. I could have literally died from fear...

Honestly, the only problem I see with using the cookie to store energy is that i never had much success storing energy in food/drink. The theory of the spell is sound for dealing with periodic insomnia. I would go for a rock rather than food, but the principle is sound. I may be mistaken, but as far...

If I were the sort to invite someone over for a formal multi-course dinner with all the decorative trappings of napkin holders and extra dishes for each part of the meal, ...

Intent is what you want. If you want someone to heal, that is your intent. If you say with conviction "Oh, I hate him so much and just wish he would die!", that is also intent. Making sure you know what you want and why you want it before you try to back it with power is a pretty big deal.

So back when I started out on my pagan path, about the first thing I learned was how to channel.
