In season 2 Rainbow rejected the spa and refused to use it, season 4 had the only time she outright rejects femininity(Inspiration Manifestation), in season 5 she has emotional breakdowns and in season 6 she uses the spa, speaks in a pristine womanly voice and opens up to male characters in a way that almost kills the delusion she’s a lesbian and in the season 7 opener isn’t even secret about the spa anymore and uses it with everyone else. I did not like how in season 2 the token-tomboy Rainbow Dash tried to be masculine and reject girly things and token-boy Spike tried to be feminine and reject Dragons who represent masculinity in mlp, as the seasons have gone on however this has changed and Spike has been becoming more manly while Rainbow has been becoming more feminine,emotional and submissive, As someone with very traditional beliefs that doesn't like seeing women fight, I think this is great and hope this continues until Dashie is a prim and proper lady that puts her silly tomboy ways behind her. And don’t get me started on how magic works with a pegasus and an earth pony. It took Starswirl years to perfect the spell, while it took Twilight a single attempt and it worked successfully. Take the episode where Twilight performs Starswirl the Bearded time travel spell.

Though this example supports this theory, it doesn’t explain everything. When Twilight tried it, she had the knowledge of how the spell works however, she lacked the magical power needed to perform the spell, so the spell failed.

Trixie had the knowledge of how to do an aging spell, and with a power boost from the alicorn amulet, the spell worked. Let’s take Twilight and Trixie for example in the magic duel episode. Magic for unicorns requires two things: they gain the ability to read or understand how the spell works, or they obtain enough magical power to perform the spell.

How in the world of Equestria does unicorn magic even work? After giving it some thought, I came up with a solution to try and answer this. This has been on my mind since I became a brony.
