Much of this section is taken from Dragyn's excellent web site about Spatial Magic based on his long-term researches. You must go to his site to get the full understanding of some of the specifics: http://home.comcast.net/~banjaloupe/spatial.html
Elemental Magic
When you cast Listen Earth on a square where “the air shimmers” (can be seen on a detail screen) you could get any of three (four, really) messages that pertain to how high a square is charged. The "first" is when you get nothing, so you have way more people to the charge on the square, or the square isn't charged at all. The true first message ("second") is when it says the air glows dimly. This means there's enough charge to warrant a message, but when the ratio of people in your tribe to amount of charges is more than 5. The second (or "third") message is that the air shimmers. This occurs when the charge ratio is less than 5 but more than 2.5. The final message is that the air flares with pungent sparks. Any ChR between 0 and 2.5 will display this message.
Pre-requisites: None
Basic Spatial Magic
Allows the magic action Charge Space
"Charge space" spell increases the amount of charge (spatial energy) on a square. Some amount of charging is required for basically all of spatial actions to work correctly. Sky souls also get the action Charge Space II which charges the hex faster for a cost of 1 SE.
Pre-requisites: Elemental Magic [Capable], Sky Only (for Charge Space II)
Spatial Magic
Allows the magic actions Trigger and Disrupt. Trigger sosts 1 SE and will move you to the person who has last Gathered. However, the square needs to be charged up quite a bit (about 2.5 Charge/person Ratio or lower: meaning the air is flaring when Listen Earth is cast). The usual measure is ONE CHARGE per TWO pps. Triggering while burdened is possible, however, it increases the amount of charge needed. Also, if you’re triggering many people, even if they all read a “pungent sparks” Listen Earth message, it may not mean the square is charged enough for all of them, because Listen Earth only depends on your own tribe count and does not factor in others on the square. Finally, Trigger only uses up (on that square) the least amount of charge required to move whomever is being triggered.
Pre-requisite: Basic Spatial Magic
Advanced Spatial Magic
Allows the Action Gather which Orients the spatial matrix towards yourself. When souls perform a trigger they will go to the pserson who has the Matrix.
Pre-requisite: Spatial Magic [Capable]

Astral Magic
Allows a Sky Soul to: Sleep (Smoke Goblin Moss to cause a "trance-induced" sleep); Wake (Cancellation of Sleep); Drift (Drift from one hex to another during sleep. One can "dream drift" to a whole other world while doing this. Drifting ability has proven essential in the non-escape world creation via TA (an Earth only Alchemy.)
Pre-requisites: Spatial magic (Accomplished?)
Aural Magic
Allows the casting of the spell known as "Echo." This spell allows you to determine, roughly, the amount of ppl:charge ratio on a square by seeing how many dots (or periods, points, whatever) follow a base message from the spell. However, the spell has some amount of error between individual castings. Therefore, don’t use this spell as a be-all and end-all measure of charge. By the way, messages with only 1 or no dots following them means that either the spell was a failure or it’s charged very little. Echo has also been seen to have slightly different results based on the number of people in your tribe when casting.
Pre-requisites: Basic Spatial Magic; Sky Only; Spatial Magic [Capable]
Telepathy

1 SE if sent to another soul off-planet
It takes 2 Adamants, 1 Alchemical Instruments, and 1 Wood for a cast.

Allows two actions: Build Laboratory, and Manufacture
A Laboratory allows a Metal Soul to Manufacture Alchemical Instruments needed in Expert Alchemy (for man-made SEs). It takes 1 SE, 10 Stones, 5 Woods, 3 Irons, 1 Tungsten, and 1 Adamant to build.

Pre-requisites: Spatial magic (Accomplished?)
Aural Magic
Allows the casting of the spell known as "Echo." This spell allows you to determine, roughly, the amount of ppl:charge ratio on a square by seeing how many dots (or periods, points, whatever) follow a base message from the spell. However, the spell has some amount of error between individual castings. Therefore, don’t use this spell as a be-all and end-all measure of charge. By the way, messages with only 1 or no dots following them means that either the spell was a failure or it’s charged very little. Echo has also been seen to have slightly different results based on the number of people in your tribe when casting.
