The Law of the Lemon — The first law and the first proof of the existence of sympathetic magic. This is an especially powerful illustration to use on a person who claims that magic doesn’t exist; that free will can overcome anything, and that magic will not work on them. Have that person engage all five senses in the visualization of a lemon imagining every quality a lemon possesses. Infuse this memory with pleasant and unpleasant experiences that they associate with lemons. When the visualization becomes firm tell them to bite the lemon. At this point most people will experience a bitter taste in their mouth and they will salivate even though no actual lemon is there. If the person does not salivate, you have unmasked a more powerful magician than you are. Mess around and find out.
