Lesson Four: Why We Care About the A.M.E.
Chapter 4
All magic comes from stars. Our Sun is the main source in our solar system. The Moon and planets absorbed magic as they formed 4.5 billion years ago.
Astronomical bodies modify magic that they reflect. The A.M.E. is the amount of magical effect a non-light producing object has on another planet. The equation includes the following variables - Distance from sun, angular size, albedo, phase, and interference. Generally, a large A.M.E means more magical effect. It was developed by Dr. Ayesha Mansour.
Mercury - Creative influence, problem solving, inspiration
Venus - Importance of feelings

Jupiter - Appearance of unstopable forces
