The Way of the Wizard: A Philosophy of Living

Preamble

Throughout stories and myths, the wizard stands as a figure of wisdom, wonder, and positive change. We are drawn to these characters not because of their magical powers, but because they represent something deeply meaningful about how to live well: the marriage of knowledge and kindness, of personal growth and community care, of serious purpose and joyful wonder.
