PERFECT SOUL MATE [21 Feb 2008|10:08pm] idabotha82 [ mood | content ] PERFECT SOUL MATE Take a shower or bath, put on some white clothing, take a stick (or your wand) and some glitter outside where you can see the stars (the best time is a new moon). Clear your mind. Pick up the stick, dip one end into the glitter then raise the stick towards your chosen star and say: "With these magic words I begin my spell. Hear me now, O mystic star, Hear me well - Let your magic light Send me the love of my life. The spell has been cast - So be it." Your glitter is now magically energized, and you should sprinkle some near your front door. You can even take some glitter out with you and sprinkle it here and there.

To Strengthen Your Psychic Shield [21 Feb 2008|10:06pm] idabotha82 [ mood | chipper ] To Strengthen Your Psychic Shield The night before the Full Moon, find a place where your altar will not be disturbed for 24 hours. Put the cauldron in the center with a red candle on the right side, black candle of the left side, and white candle in the back; but do not light them yet. Sprinkle a mixture of equal parts of elder blossoms, marjoram, mint and rue in an unbroken circle around the cauldron. Into a tiny vial, measure equal drops of clove, frankincense, jasmine, and lavender. Set the sealed bottle in the cauldron and leave until the night of the Full Moon. On Full Moon night, take a cleansing bathe and robe yourself in white. Carry a good protective or purification incense through every room in the house. Make certain that the smoke drifts into closets. Return to the altar and light the candles. Take up the dagger or sword. Face the East and raise the sword in salute. To salute in this manner, simply hold the sword point upward in front of you. Say: By the power of the rising sun, all evil in my life is done. Turn to the South, salute, say: By the power of darkening night, my shield is strong, my armor tight. Turn to the North, salute, say: By Full Moon in blackening sky, I am not alone. My help is nigh. The Goddess's hands around me stay, To keep me safe by night and day. Begone, foul spirits, unbidden here. I send you back, I do not fear. For I have won. I am set free. You have no further power o'er me. Face the altar and take up the vial of oil. Put a drop of oil on your finger and anoint your forehead, heart, solarplexes, wrists and ankles. As you do this, visualize a shining blue suit of armor slowly descending over your body until you are entirely protected. Cap the bottle and store in a safe place. Thank the Powers for their help and extinguish the candles. Apply the oil and repeat the chants whenever you feel the armor is slipping -D.J. Conway post comment

SOWING THE SEED OF LOVE: [13 Feb 2008|01:55am] idabotha82 [ mood | creative ] SOWING THE SEED OF LOVE: To attract a special lover: No one could teach the world more about love than the Italians. To follow a custom my Italian Grandmother taught my mother (and in the same tradition as Isabella's pot of basil in Keats’s poem) this spell demonstrates how pouring your love into a little basil plant will ensure a strong love with someone. YOU WILL NEED: * A small pot * Some earth * Some basil seeds On a waxing moon in late spring or summer, take a few basil seeds and sow them carefully in one or two small pots or containers. as you sow them, sing a sweet song or think loving thoughts, and feel love entering your life. Water the seeds lovingly until they germinate, saying as you do: "SONO INNAMORATA GRAZIE" When the seedlings appear, take great care of them, especially if the weather is cold (in which case you will need a very sunny draught-free window) You mustn't let them die and never use these special plants for cooking, for they are sacred to love. You will meet a special love within a few months - perhaps the love of your life. Have fun. post comment

LOVE SPELL [13 Feb 2008|01:50am] idabotha82 [ mood | creative ] LOVE SPELL This love spells hits the one you want like a whirlwind. This love spells must only be done between the hours of twelve midnight and one in the morning. It must only be started during the time of the full moon. Find a private place under a large tree. Choose a patch of ground that is dirt. You will need a white candle, red candle and a yellow candle for your love spells. The candles must be 12 inches in length. You will need another small white candle as the lighter. Also some matches. You will need something that is of the person you're interested in. The best is a strand of hair, but a photo will do. I find love spells work better if done in a natural state but this is your decision. Write the full name of the person on a piece of white paper two inches square. On the night of the full moon at midnight go the spot you have chosen. Dig a small hole with your hands and place the item of the person in the hole with the paper. Spit some of your saliva on the item then cover it with dirt to give love spells more power. Place the white candle in the ground above this position. Using your small finger on the left hand draw seven lines, each one inch apart, to the right of the candle. Using the small finger of your right hand, draw seven lines, one inch apart to the left of the candle. Holding the small white candle in your left hand light the small white candle. Now light the main white candle in the ground with the small candle. Holding the yellow candle in your right hand light the candle from the main white candle. Place the yellow candle to the left on line seven. Holding the red candle in your left hand light the candle from the main white candle and place on the right side in line seven. You must at all times focus only the person of your affection and no one else or the love spells will fail. Say the following words three times exactly: Crastern ater trew iop li thig frets loob trenis ___(name of person backwards)___(peter would be retep). Move the yellow candle to line six. Move the red candle to line six. Using your small finger put out the flame on the yellow candle. Using your small finger put out the flame on the red candle. Using your small finger put out the flame on the white candle. The candles must remain in the exact position without being touched until you return the next night at midnight in these love spells. You are then to repeat the exact same routine moving the candles to line five. Continue every night until you reach the final night. On the final night all candles will come together in the love spells. You should tie the candles together very tightly with a multi color ribbon, which should only contain bright colors, no black, brown or gray. Bury the candles in the ground with the other object of you affection. That night before you go to sleep say the magic words to your love spells one last time. post comment

Begin by brewing a strong magical tea made from yarrow or mugwort (herbs that stimulate the psychic senses) and then light thirteen purple colored votive candles to help attract psychic influences. Drink the tea and then gaze fixedly into a magic mirror, crystal ball, or crystal pyramid as you chant thrice the following incantation: I invoke thee, O Asariel Archangel of Neptune And ruler of clairvoyant powers. I ask thee now to open my third eye And show me the hidden light Let me see the future. Let me see the past. Let me perceive the divine Kingdoms of the unknown. Let me understand the wisdom Of the mighty universe. So mote it be! After chanting, relax, breathe slowly and concentrate on opening your Third Eye. Do not permit any negative thought to contaminate your mind. The Third Eye, an invisible chakra located in the middle of the forehead above the space between the eyebrows, is the human body’s highest source of power, supernormal sight and clairvoyant vision. post comment

CASTING SIMPLE SPELLS [09 Feb 2008|12:08am] idabotha82 [ mood | chipper ] CASTING SIMPLE SPELLS Many young people have written to me asking me to send them spells or help them cast a spell. This section is to give some basic help. The first thing you need to know is that you don't just get a spell from someone else that is powerful. Whether a spell is powerful or not depends on the person casting it, and once you understand the basics of casting spells, you can make your own Anytime you want. Basically, the universe and everything in it, including you and me, are all energy. Whenever you think or feel something very strongly, you generate extra energy. If you think or feel about someone else, you program the energy to go to that person (the same for things or ideas, which are also kinds of energy, like getting to take a trip or getting some money). To cast your basic spell you need ... ( ......  ) post comment

Celtic knowledge [07 Feb 2008|11:50pm] idabotha82 [ mood | complacent ] Celtic knowledge Celtic magic Celtic Sacred Trees and Woods To the Celts and many other peoples of the old world, certain trees hold special significance as a fuel for heat, cooking, building materials and weaponry. In addition to this however, many woods also provided a powerful spiritual presence. The specific trees varied between different cultures and geographic locations, but those believed to be "sacred" shared certain traits. Unusual size, beauty, the wide range of materials they provided, unique physical characteristics, or simply the power of the tree's spirit could grant it a central place in the folklore and mythology of a culture. Even our modern culture finds that certain trees capture our imagination. The mighty oak, the mystical yew and so many others are reminders of the power that trees have on our lives. Trees are living things, filled with the essence and energy and the Elementals and Mother Earth with an aura of power, which is visible to those who are in total balance and harmony. The lore, which surrounds a particular tree, reflects the power the old ones sensed and drew from their presence. ( More...  ) post comment
