Yes, distance shouldn't mean anything but someone was suggesting about using the internet to link or something.

Many chaos mages use the internet to spread sigils disguised as icons and pics...... Who knows what using the same medium could do to your spells.......... that sounded like it belonged in a video game for some reason.

wait wait. what does spreading a sigil do?

i have a basic knowledge of sigils, but i'm not sure exactly what they do.

Oh ok. Well if you based the link solely on the internet connection, I agree it could be very unstable, depending on both parties, etc. (speculating here, conscious minds aren't part of the traffic I allow to enter my network )

when i was first discovering the metaphysical side of life, i tried to send some happy, positive, healing energies through the internet connection to my girlfriend at the time. what i got was a splitting headache and a feeling of static in my head. since then, i haven't wanted to mess with it.

My guess would be the headache occurred not because of the fact that you tried using the internet as the empathic link, but mostly because your subconscious didn't understand its task. That sounds vague... I'll elaborate.

You tried sending emotions via a link composed of electromagnetic waves. That, if you simply used the waves as a path to follow, to visualize your target, could have worked. It all got screwed up when you tried integrating the emotions into that link. In other words, rather than visualizing the emotions as using the connection to travel, it would've been safer to just make them follow it, you know what I mean? What I think might have happened is your subconscious tried to make the emotions directly use the connection and that would require it to convert and send the emotions in the form of electromagnetic signals. It's like sending a binary signal to the human brain, it won't know what to do with it and either A) reject it completely or B) freak out AKA hurt.

I think.

online magic is hard and forget psychism its based on electromagnetics using a electronic terminal would be eaxtraordinarily difficult at best.
the only way successful online magic outside of chaos magic could be performed is most likely through a chat setting. chaos magic works well or just a tadbit better than
most magic online because theres a sort of respect so to speak all gods of chaos are also gods of travel and psychopomps which inludes eshu ellegua mercury and so on
these gods are also in charge of communication thus chaos magic already works in a way condusive to using the internet because of the online junk and clutter
which would inhibit alot of normal spells even if you did achive digitization.

but internet spells are not impossible i advise recordings of chantings you have done and saved basic text documents that you have typed up with the chanted phrase
over and over and over again with out the cut copy paste function.
