I have tried to do this once before, and, apparently there was some twitching... not! It did not work, but, I know it can work, so, I will try to animate statues so that they will be imbued with life and movement. To do that, we will need to summon forces to animate them, faeries if you will, or, spirits? Either way you like it or what you call them, they will hopefully animate the statue to become more than a mere ornament.
So, to do this we will need to understand consciousness, once more. This means that we need to understand consciousness is everywhere, and that all things thrive to survive, with, even in our statue example, rocks growing to dominate. This is because of cellular division - it is actually a hard wired consciousness, of course, where the only difference between us and this is flexibility.
I remember once someone telling me about 'rain faeries.' This stands to reason then that water is alive, earth is alive, air is alive and fire is alive. But, when I say to you that these things are alive, a shovel or a radio surely are not alive, are they?
Let's look at biology as the study of reactions, as, we are merely reactive organisms and organisms are merely reactive matter, more than metals. This means, even bacteria is alive, yes? This means that the difference between life and death is 'flexibility,' of course. This means that germs are just reactive gases, combined to form layers of more or less reactive stuff, much like a sun or star... I hope you understand thus far?
~ The trick now is to get the materials of stone statues to react, not become soft!
The statues will react if they were to become sensitive, and, this can be done for a short while at least, by, blowing on them like a pokemon, I would assume?
But, let's say that does not work... let's say that the statue will not be animated by a faerie unless it likes the statue? This might call for paints or jewels to be encrusted into it, that it will look pretty to the faerie? This statue needs to be imbued by a lot of faeries, which calls for a bonfire.I owe this to my god Venus, who is a fire elemental god. Please do it my way, the collection of fire will have much better results than water, earth or air, okay?
So, you light a few bonfire around the statue, and, you force the energy into the statue. This will mean, of course, that seeing as how it is 'unlife,' it will run out of energy without being able to restore it's energy. Problem.
If we were to imagine the fires going into the statute, the fires will beat like a heart, of course, as the statue is not flammable. This means, of course, that the statue will not be affected physically by the fire, but emotionally by the faeries.
So, our statue needs to have jewels put onto it, have a few bonfires around it, magically guided faeries from the fires into it, colourfully, of course, and to get the faeries into it, we imagine the seven chakra colours sprouting from it, being filled with the fire's energy. Then, we might need to place a spirit inside of it, a willing one, one called by name of course. This can be done by sprinkling chalk around the bottom of the statue, I reckon...
