I will never get over how weird it feels to have tragic and emotional chapters of your life where you just also still go to work, and the grocery store, and see funny videos online all while feeling such paralyzing fear and heartache

life just goes on no matter what

"You think you're informed just because you read a bunch of grainy PDFs?"

Yeah man. Reading scholarly works on a topic informs you on that topic. That's how this works.

How exactly did medieval "wizards" imagine wands worked? Did they imagine they were channelling pneuma through them to do something "magical"?

They were not channeling anything through them. Nowadays, the idea of a magical implement being an extension of the magicians soul is a more common idea, but back then, you wanted a wand for the astral and natural properties it had.

Like, if a ritual calls for the virtues of Scorpio and Virgo, you wanted a length of Yew wood because it was a better conductor for those aspects.

Medieval magic was less like a martial art, and more like constricting a circut board. The most important thing the actual magus did was stay ritually clean. It was a super common idea that for magic to work, you had to be pure of heart and favored by god. Many spells called for several days of fasting or prayer as purification before the rite. I think of it as analogous to a surgeon washing their hands before surgery. But you gotta wash your soul clean.
