Aura Manipulation
Aura Colors Revised By Tanahmera (Aka: Archangel)
Here is a reference guide that I have found to be true concerning auras and their colors from my own personal experiences I have updated it recently:

Vibrant-Bright-Red
Red is the easiest color to see in the light spectrum. Red represents general energy and physical vitality.

Medium-Red
Often denotes physical activity, anger, agitation, frustration restricted movement, raw lust, pure desire, adrenaline, and stifled thought.The expression, "seeing red" is often descried as a state of anger, as is 'red with rage'.

Dark Deep-Blood-Red
Someone suffering from a severe physical illness or disease. Possibly blood disorder, cancer, heart, liver, kidney problems etc. Do NOT guess whats wrong, just tell this person to see a doctor immediately because you sense or detect a serious health problem.

Brown
Brown in someone's emotional layer is seen as base physical desires, personal greed, earthly gains. It can also represent personal gain, money attitudes and hidden motive.

Dark Brown
Infertility (as in barren Earth in Fall & Winter only financially speaking), one who may become or is surrounded by con artists, drug dealers, dishonest money, etc. Could also just indicate someone desperately poor or who has become bankrupt.

Bright-Canary/Pastel Yellow
Sometimes represents familiar bonding, and social happiness. This person is like a breath of fresh air.

Medium-Vibrant-Yellow
Sometimes, a bright yellow streak appears at a moment of delight or joy, at a happy realization or moment. Yellow, especially a yellow that engulfs the aura often represents a state of revelation, also thinking and working within thought.

Dark-Yellow-Green
May represent pride, one who is somewhat of a gossip or judgmental. Be careful what you say to this person, They may be digging for information to be used against you later.

Golden
Gold is the color of pure self-righteousness (in the good sense), spiritual fortitude. and divinity. May be a religious teacher, Jungian psychologist, therapist, faith healer or one who councils others on emotional spiritual matters.

Silver
Divine wisdom, protection or one who is surrounded by Angels, Spirit Guides, Sages, Healers etc. One who is here to heal or help others, possibly a spiritual or inspirational writer, teacher, life-coach, one who does seminars, etc.

A deep rich pink can often indicate feelings of romance, friendship, goodwill, true caring and empaty. This person is sincerely happy for the successes of other people.

Dark Pink or Magenta
Loyalty, commitment, understanding.

Blue-Bright
Calming shades of blue denote relaxation retreat, mental calm. Also may indicate moments of spirituality.

Deep Blue
Speaking and living true to their beliefs, an honest person, one who gives sound advice and actually takes it themselves, speaks from personal experience rather than guessing.

Blue-Grey
Shades of bluish-grey mean withdrawn feelings, not listening (not to be rude to you but as in one who is somewhat numb emotionally), saddened, possibly recovering from deep depression.

Dark or Navy Blue
This indicates a very 'orderly' emotionally controlled person, who means well but appears outspoken and sometimes cold or emotionally distant. Almost military or rational-minded' person. Very Authoritativeand domineering at first impression, but beneath that is a person who doesn't care too little, but cares too much. The Icy temperment is a mask they use to deflect "deep emotional interactions" with others. They are very guarded people.

Bright Green
There is a green aura to money. Usually a nice verdant green indicates friendship, goodwill caring, sociability.

Medium Green
Fertility (as in fertile Earth in the spring & summer, in a financial sense), Hard worker, Earned or Honest Wealth, financial success, Prosperity. This is the person to take business advice from.

Dark Green
shades streaked with red can often indicate trust and jealousy issues. Possible thief, or one who will borrow money with no intention of repaying the lender. It may be this person is just surrounded by shady people too frequently.

Powder Dirt & Dust Recipes Master List A-Z

ABOUT POWDER DIRT & DUST RECIPES
For all of these recipes, when a specific amount is not listed, I simply combine equal parts of each of the herbs called for, (unless otherwise specified in a recipe), and grind in your magical coffee grinder, add some essential oil and mix them into a base of rice flour or corn starch. A bit of paint powder can be used if you like your powers color-coordinated with their intent. Also,you can use talc if you have it readily available but you will find that it is cheaper to use the alternatives presented here plus safer if you have children around the house or are sensative to inhalants.

BANISHING POWDERS

--BLESSED BE BANISHING POWDER-
-This is another of my own recipes, it's an all purpose blend for healing, blessing, banishing and protection. It effectively rids my home of unwelcome visitors, both in spirit & in the flesh. I use it to sprinkle in every window sill, doorway, and any uncomfortable or 'cold' spots in my home.
Combine 9 large pinches of each of the following herbs and spices: Frankincense, Patchouli & Sandalwood (<< For these 3, I buy incense sticks & scrape it off, because it's really hard to crush incense cones by hand), 9 whole bay leaves, (crumpled as small as possible), St Johns wort (buy a bottle of powdered capsuls, open 9 -1 at a time- spilling contents into mixture), sulfer, cinnamon, ginger, cayenne pepper, black pepper, thyme, basil, parsley, cumin ground, yellow mustard ground, flax seed, turmeric powder, mint, rosemary, sage, nutmeg, clove, allspice, garlic, chili, table salt, and sea salt.
Grind by hand using a mortar and pestil while focusing in all of its purposes, like the blessings you desire, the illnesses you want healed, the company you wish to banish, and those you require protection from.
You can also write an empowering chant to be recited at least 9 times while mixing. I chose the number 9 to represent the karmic power of 3 times 3.
This has also worked extremely well for me so I thought I would pass it on aswell. All of the above ingredients are non toxic (except sulfur), easy to find, inexpensive, and most of them are probably already in your spice rack or are 'normal' kitchen spices:) This recipe makes a 3 year supply if stored in a sealed glass jar. Use every full moon. -Written By: Archangel 2006 http://bornagainwiccan.forumotion.com/

You Will Need: 11 ingredients:
1: One Part Basil Powder,
2: One Part Spearmint Powder,
3: One Part Aniseed Powder,
4: One Half Part Of Nutmeg Powder,

The Charm:
Write a brief description of your goal or aim onto a tiny piece of paper and roll the paper into a miniature scroll. Using an apple corer, bore a hole halfway into an apple and retain the piece of apple removed.
Insert the scroll into the hold together with a sprinkling of cornucopia powder and replace the apple 'plug' removed when drilling the hole into the apple.
Place the apple in a jar and cover it completely with white sugar and white wine, place the lid on the jar and pray for success.
Put the jar beneath the bed or within a bedside cabinet, as the apple, sugar and wine ferments, so too does the energy of your goal.

CROSSING POWDER-
-Crossing crystal salts for putting in the laundry of the person you want to hex, performing a ritual floor wash, or used as incense for fumigating an area to be cursed. Salt, cayenne & black pepper, sulphur, graveyard dirt, crossroads dirt, ashes, crushed snail shells, spider webs, crushed insects, unravelled hemp rope, gum arabic, rattlesnake dust (powdered shed skin of a rattlesnake), black hen's eggs, and other herbs and essences.
Crossing is a strongly African concept in hoodoo, a sub-set of the tradition known as direct foot-track magic, whereby one can affect another by:
1-gathering up their foot-print dirt and working with it,
2-causing them to step upon or walk across something evil, such as Crossing Powder or Hot Foot Powder,
3-causing them to contact with their foot something that will bend them to your will (e.g. Court Case Root or Essence of Bend-Over Powder),
4-placing something in their shoe or sock to harm them, such as Goofer Dust,
5-collecting one of their socks and washing it in Crossing Crystals or
6-working candle-magic with it. for example, by burning a glass-encased DUME (Death Unto My Enemies) or Black List candle dressed with a combination of Crossing Oil and magic herbs for harming.
The word "Crossing" has several meanings in the hoodoo tradition. In its original form, it refers to laying down a trick in a "quincunx" "five-spot" or "X" pattern or creating a "cross-mark," such as a circle with an "X" through it, to "poison" an enemy who steps in it. Crossing is thus a form of direct foot-track magic and it may be the oldest and most African of this type of spell.
Cross-marks and "wavy snake lines" intended to hurt an enemy can be laid down with small stones, inscribed in the dust with a sharp stick, or drawn with chalk or sprinkled on a sidewalk or street. The marks are placed in the foot path of the victim and activated by spitting into them while cursing the one for whom they are laid.
What happens to innocent people who walk over such marks is a matter of debate. Some folks will tell you that the cross-mark only affects the one it was put down for -- but almost as many people will tell you to never walk across such a mess when you see it, because you just might get crossed or "hurt through your feet" anyway.
Jinxing includes all the forms of crossing mentioned above, and is sometimes used as a synonym for crossing, but it also includes a few other tricks. For instance, people who have been verbally cursed, have had their foot-tracks whipped, have had black candles burned on their names, have been "throwed after" (that is, had bad-luck herbs, sachet powders, or minerals thrown behind their backs by their enemies after they passed by).
Those who have been "dressed" or "poisoned" or "throwed for" with powders, insects, snake dust, or spiders secretly placed on their are usually said to be Jinxed. In theory, while only a person who actually steps across a cross-mark or a trick laid in "quincunx" pattern could be said to be literally "crossed" or suffering from "crossed conditions," in practice those terms have almost become synonyms for jinxing and are casually applied to anyone who is jinxed or is undergoing bouts of bad luck and trouble, even if the cause is not known. For a list of ways to reverse its effects, see 'Undo Crossing powder'below.

DELIGHT POWDER-
-This Hoodoo powder is used to overcome inhibitions and increase pleasure when sprinkled on your lover. Sandalwood, Rose, Melon Oil.

DON'T F*CK WITH ME POWDER-
-Another of my own recipes, this one wards off the temptation to dabble in the black arts & all who practice them. It also gets rid of any back stabbing friends you may have. It returns any negative energies or spells sent toward you straight back to those who conjured them.
To use this powder, keep it in a small glass bottle (I use a cleaned 10ml oil bottle), and carry it in one of your pockets, (or purse), wherever you go. Sprinkle it in your own laundry, home & car. If the opportunity arises, sprinkle a small pinch of it in the footprints, home, or clothes of those who wrong you. You'll find they suddenly seem to be extremely busy, overworked, moving, or self-absorbed they will find better things to do than destroy your life anymore.
Mix equal parts of: sage, dirt from the grave of an ancestor, frankincense, sea salt & 3 drops of dragons blood oil.

GOOFER DUST POWDER-
-Goofer Dust is a very old African-American hoodoo curio used to trouble, harm, or kill an enemy. In particular, it can cause the victim's legs to swell up and medical doctors will not be able to effect a cure.
Recipes for making it vary, but it is almost always a mixture of simple natural ingredients, usually including Graveyard Dirt, powdered sulphur (which can give it a yellowish colour) and salt. Subsidiary ingredients may include powdered snake heads or snake skin "sheds," red pepper, black pepper, powdered bones, powdered insects or snails, and greyish, powdery-surfaced herbs such as mullein and sage.
In the past, some formulas for Goofer Dust included anvil dust, the fine black iron detritus found around a blacksmith's anvil. A modern substitute for this now-uncommon ingredient would be magnetic sand, which is also black in colour.
The word goofer comes from the Kikongo word "kufwa," which means "to die." Goofer Dust is alleged to Jinx an Enemy in Family, Money, Job, and Health Matters. People well-versed in such doings explain that they have picked up a person's Footprint, mixed it with Goofer Dust and stopped the mixture up in a bottle, which they have then hidden in the crotch of a tree where it could not be found. Others claim that they have sprinkled Goofer Dust around an enemy's home, in the yard, or even in the bedroom, to cause Hard Luck and Trouble. Personally, I have never tried it, nor would I care to. The very idea just seems evil to me, but I included it in this list for anyone who may be hexed by it, and I have also included an Undo Recipe In Powder & Dust Recipes U.

GRAVEYARD DIRT POWDER-ABOUT-
-Methods by which one pays for GD vary from worker to worker, but the principle is always the same. You have to get in touch with the ancestral spirit and make a respectful application and payment.
Beyond that there are numerous details -
- whose grave, the cause of death, location of grave with respect to the cemetery gates, whether you dig from the head, heart, or feet, which offering you give, where & how you place the with respect to the grave. It is wise to research as many rituals as possible for collecting gyd simply because they are almost always respectful of the dead and those with experience have much to teach you about how it's done properly.
Don't just go out thinking, it's only my grandma, she wont mind, that's NOT how it works. You have to make contact with her spirit first, ASK permission, and actually RECIEVE confirmation of permission granted before taking the dirt. What if she was a devout Chrisitan and would NEVER agree to such a thing? Just because they're dead, doesn't mean they don't have feelings anymore. Shame on you for not taking that into consideration.
Once you're adept at communicating with spirits, you gain a deeper respect, & realize they really are more alive than we are, no longer restricted by the flesh. Accountability for your actions does not exclude what you do to the dead.
If I were in spirit, and one of my ancestors wanted my gyd to harm or kill another, I would refuse to give consent. If they took my gyd anyway, I would guard the person they hexed with it, instead of my family member. I believe in karma, and I would step aside allowing my relative to recieve his/her karma for doing something like that.

GRAVEYARD DIRT POWDER-HOW TO USE IT IN SPELL-WORK-
-There are basically three ways that Graveyard Dirt is employed in hoodoo: in spells of protection, in enemy tricks, & in coercive love spells . Despite its inclusion in such harmful formulas, GD is not evil per se, & it has uses all its own that reflect its venerable stature in the African religious practice of ancestor veneration. In African-derived magic such as hoodoo & Obeah, GD is an important "magical link" (in the Crowleyan sense of that term), because of the powerful culutral beliefs centered around the role of the dead in rituals of invocation. This was and remains especially true in the Kongo, from whence most African-American slaves came, also in West Africa, where most Afro-Caribbean slaves came. (You may find veneration of ancestors rather misleadingly called "ancestor worship" by earlier Western scholars, & you will often see it referred to in that way in books published in English prior to the 1990s, but American & Eurpeoan scholars have recently begun using the more accurate African term "ancestor veneration," due to their contact with Africans who have entered academia & gotten on the internet .. & still practice ancestor veneration.) In Palo Mayombe, a mostly Cuban & Brazilian survival of Kongo religio-magical practice somehwat admixed with Catholicism, the dirt from graves is kept in a "prenda" on an altar. In hoodoo, as in African magic & in Palo, GD can be used for good or for ill. There are several well-known love-spells that utilize GD, & just as many spells to hold someone down or restrain them in some way (what British people might call a "binding spell". In hoodoo, the ritual of collecting GD -- by the practitioner him-- or herself -- is called BUYING GD. The usual payment in the US, since the 19th century at least, has been a silver dime, preferably a Mercury dime. Customs vary, but generally the dime is offered to the dead in the entire graveyard or to the specific spirit from whose grave one will dig the dirt. If one wished to do harm, one might buy the dirt of someone who "died badly" -- before their time, through execution, or so forth, because their spirit, once invoked, would be inclined to perform evil deeds with little compunction. If one wished to bring about love, one might buy the dirt from someone who loved one in life (a relative or a deceased spouse, for instance) because their spirit, once invoked, would be inclined to help one achieve lasting love. Some workers prefer dirt from a baby's grave, because they say that the spirit thus invoked is malleable & biddable; but others say it is too weak, being young, & will not prove as effective as dirt from the grave of an adult. This practice of the individual buying dirt from a graveyard led early on in hoodoo to the root worker / herbalist buying the dirt & then re-selling it. No stigma is attached to this practice, but the re-seller may be questioned closely as to whether the dirt was properly "bought & paid for." Ads found in old catalogues dating back to the 1920s in which GD was offered for sale to the African-American community, show this is not a recent phenomenon. Like most of the merchantile aspects of hoodoo, it arose as urbanization made the personal gathering of symbolic ingredients difficult to achieve. The price of GD is usually nominal -- it's dirt cheap. Neo-pagan authors such as Scott Cunningham have written that GD is "just code" for certain herbs, such as mullein, but this is easily proven untrue by simply asking the average root-worker. In the African-American & Wiccan communities, GD is dirt from a grave that's been ritually "bought & paid for."

GRAVEYARD DIRT FOR HARMING POWDER-
-Mix Graveyard Dirt with the following ingredients (all ground into a powder): sulphur, salt, snake heads or skin "sheds," red & black pepper, bones, insects or snails, greyish herbs such as mullein or sage, anvil dust (black iron dust found around a blacksmith's anvil), & magnetic sand. When intended to harm, GD symbolizes death to the enemy. Some use a doll-baby representing the enemy placed in a miniature coffin & buried in a graveyard, some use a black candle symbolizing the enemy deliberately extinguished by turning it upside down into a saucer of GD. Use GD from a sinner/one who "died bad" a criminal/victim of a violent death/soldier-they're brave & follow orders. See Undo Recipe below.

GRAVEYARD DIRT FOR LOVE & ATTRACTION POWDER-
-The third class of GD work consists of coercive love spells in which dirt from the grave of someone who loved you is used to enchant & enthrall a living lover. You need green paper, vandal root, & GD. Write your name & the targets' name on the paper, put the vandal root and GD in the center of the paper, wrap it up & leave it under your bed. This spell is from a book published by Baron Blanc in Sydney, Australia. Remember, in the book's words, "it is one of the most powerful love spells & should be undertaken only after other love spells have failed. Not for the faint hearted."

GRAVEYARD DIRT FOR PROTECTION POWDER-
-The use of GD in protection spells requires dirt from the grave of a protective family member or a friend. In these cases the spirit of that person is protecting you or your home. To be kept in a bottle & carried with you, or kept inside your home or car. This is also linked to ancient African beliefs & practices, in which ancestor veration is a key component of how one relates to the spiritual world.

Powder & Dust Recipes H

HOT FOOT POWDER 1-
-Red Chili Pepper, Black Pepper. Precipitado Rojo, Sulpher, John The Conqueror. Grind ingredients and add to a rice flour/corn starch base.

HOT FOOT POWDER 2-
-Hot Foot Powder and the allied formulas Hot Foot Oil, Hot Foot Incense, and Hot Foot Floor Wash-- are old Southern hoodoo formulas that are used to rid oneself or one's home of unwanted people, to send enemies packing, and to keep peace in the home by eliminating troublemakers. Similar formulas, known as Drive Away Oil or Get Away Oil, contain virtually the same ingredients, namely a proprietary blend of Red Pepper, sulphur, salt, and essential oils that include Black Pepper and other herbal extracts. The scent is hot and spicy, but it is not at all unpleasant. Many of the African-derived spells used in African-American hoodoo involve foot track magic. In these rituals or spells, people's footprints are used to lay down tricks, such as crossing them, removing them from town, jinxing them, or bringing them under control. Hot Foot brand products fall squarely into the realm of foot track magic, as can be seen in their name and manner of employment. For more see http://www.luckymojo.com/foottrack.html

RATTLESNAKE SALT POWDER-
-To make it, a rattlesnake (rattles and all) is chopped up and placed in a container of salt. After six months the dried meat is discarded and the "rattlesnake salt" is ready for use. To prolong life: sprinkle rattlesnake salt on the food you eat, at least once a day. The two parts consist of packages of coloured rattlesnake salt, one off-white and the other coral-pink, which are to be used in (forgive my rusty Spanish translation) "rituals of Santeria, budu (voodoo), magical healing both black and white, spiritual healing, cleansing, and purification." Allegedly, rattlesnake salt cures "hysteria, excessive wrath, mental illness, symptoms of insanity, uncontrollable tremors, phobias, delusions of grandeur, feelings of worthlessness, fantasies of persecution, and diabolical possession." Rattlesnake salt will also protect one from envy and will prevent fights from breaking out in one's place of business or work. The instructions given call for the practitioner to lay the two colours of rattlesnake salt out in the doorway in a sort of sand painting depicting two S-shaped rattlesnakes and then to burn a black candle and a white candle on their respective heads, recite a lengthy prayer to "The Adorable Tetragramaton," extinguish the candles, sweep up the salt, and discard it at a crossroads. For more info go to... http://www.luckymojo.com/rattlesnake.html

RATTLESNAKE SKIN DUST POWDER-
-Because the rattlesnake sheds its skin, powdered whole rattlesnakes are used in Latin American folk-medicine involving skin diseases. To cure eczema and boils: dry and powder the entire rattlesnake (some say just the skin, others say just the rattles) and sprinkle the powder on food; alternatively, use the powder to make a poultice and apply directly to the skin. In the African-American hoodoo tradition, powdered snake skin (Rattlesnake Dust) -- either from a snake that has been killed or from "sheds" that one finds -- is an important ingredient in a mixture called Goofer Dust. Some practitioners insist that the skin used in this compound must come from a rattlesnake; others prefer the skin of a king snake (because of its presumed mastery over other reptiles) or say that any species of snake will do. It is used in Goofer Dust along with additional ingredients: GD, powdered sulphur, red pepper, black pepper, mullein, and a variety of other herbs. The Goofer Dust mixture is used to jinx, cross, trouble, mess up, or even kill one's enemies. The typical hoodoo logic of "reversing bad luck" further leads to the use of the Rattlesnake to cure a "crazy" spells that have been put on someone. For a detailed eyewitness account of such a cure, performed in 1929 with Rattlesnake Dust and Adam-and-Eve Root, see the web page on the famous root worker Aunt Caroline Dye. (http://www.luckymojo.com/auntcarolinedye.html). For a couple of simple African-American spells using Rattlesnake Skin to ward off evil, see the web page on protective magic spells collected in the 1930s by Harry M. Hyatt... http://www.luckymojo.com/protectionspells.html

UNDO CROSSING/GOOFER DUST/HOT FOOT POWDERS & GRAVEYARD DIRT HEXES-

1-To Undo Crossing Powder:
If you suspect that someone is trying to cross you by laying tricks for you to walk over, you can protect yourself by sprinkling Fear Not to Walk Over Evil Powder in your pathway. If you have already been crossed, jinxed, or throwed for, you can perform an Uncrossing or Jinx-Breaker Spell to take off the jinx.

2-To Undo Goofer Dust Spells:
Like similar tricks involving Graveyard Dirt, Hot Foot Powder, & Crossing Powder -- are quite African in character, deriving from African foot-track magic, a form of sorcery in which one "hurts" or "poisons" a victim "through the feet." Undoing the jinx may involve ritual bathing, floor washing, or sweeping to remove the Goofer Dust. Sprinkling salt in the corners of the house is also an antidote.

3-To Undo Graveyard Dirt Hexes:
Undoing these hexes is the same as Undoing Goofer dust. See Also Recipe For Jinx Removing Powder.

WEATHER POWDER-
-For this powder, you will need light blue talc, Mugwort, St. John's wort, Male Fern, salt,and sage.
Cleanse and consecrate all items, including the jar you will be storing it in. With a mortar and pestle, grind each herbs slowly, first widdershins to dispel all excess energies not associated with the weather working, then deosil to empower the herbs with weather working (ie. to dispel excess energy in a storm without stopping the rain from falling).
Once you have all the herbs ground well, mix them together, stirring deosil, joining their energies as one, to work together to ease the storm. Hold the blue talc in both hands, and visualize it as the element of air until it glows in your hands. Once you feel it has been charged all it can be, mix the herbs with it, and as you blend them together, empower the whole mixture with the power of going forth, up into the storm and easing it's fury.
When you use this powder( and it shouldn't be everytime it rains a little, only if the weather is getting very horrid out) you should hold some in your power hand tightly until you feel it pulse in your palm and get hot/warm/tingley.
As you hold it in your hand repeat over and over that you wish it to ease the storm, put not stop the rain, that no harm should come to any this night/day. Use your own words. It works better when you do. After you have repeated this and the powder is ready, go out into the storm (be sure to put on rubber soled shoes) and starting in the direction the storm is coming from, say" I charge thee powder go forth from me, the fury of the storm thou are to ease", then gently blow some of the powder in that direction. Do this until you make the full circle, reciting and blowing the powder to each direction.
When you are done, you should have a small amount left in your hand. Hold your hand in front of you and again recite the evocation, and ask Spirit/God/dess to take the powder to the storm and help you in your quest. You should store the powder in an air tight container,shaking it occasionally to keep it from clumping up, on your altar/house shrine or some other sacred space you have. -by Jennifer M. Guidry

--Spell-1: Time: New/Full Moon.
On a square pice of paper, write your wish.
Put 1 pinch of the powder in the middle of the paper & gather the corners of the paper together & twist closed it should be shaped something like cone incense.
Put it in your cauldron/metal container & light it on fire. if it burns totally your wish will be granted.
If it burns more than 1/2 way your wish will be granted after a waiting period.
If you have to re-light it more than twice, perhaps you may outgrow that wish and therefore it may not come to pass at all.
--Spell-2: Time: Full Moon.
Using your left hand, take a pinch of the powder & put it in the center of your right hand & make a tight fist.
Go outside where you can see the Full Moon, hold the fist to your heart chakra & state your wish to Goddess Moon.

WISHING POWDER 2-
-* The Great Outdoors (This could be your back yard, a park, or forest -- any place where the wishing powder will land on the earth when you release it). * Anything else you feel you need to personalize your wish. You will need to craft the wishing powder ahead of time. You can either do this at home in a Circle or, if you don't mind taking your mortal and pestle along with you, you can make it outside where you plan to use it. (This isn't too hard to do if you're staying in your own backyard). * 2 parts sage * 1 part sandalwood * 1 part Tonka beans Grind, mix, and empower. If you're feeling adventurous, customize your wishing powder to the wish you'll be making. (Example: Crushed rose petals for bringing love into your life). Find a spot to make our wishes from. Take a handful of the wishing powder and begin concentrating on your wishes. (Please do not put yourself in danger to make a wish. A wish is just as powerful whether it's made standing on a rock on the side of a steep hill or standing in a field). Put your energy and wish into the powder you are holding. When it feels like you can no longer hold the energy, let it fly. As the powder settles to the ground, visualize your wishes joining with the Earth, gaining power and strength. As always, remember the Rule of Three when making your wish. After putting the energy out there, it's impossible to call it back. Remember the old saying, "Be careful what you wish for, you may get it." If you are worried about where to get Tonka Beans (as needed for the above wishing spell). You can do an easy search for them through any search engine to find them. Vanilla Beans/pods are a Substitute.

Prosperity Spell Abundance Checks

2011-02-10T11:34:00.002-05:00

Prosperity Spell Abundance Checks

This is a practical exercise in intention. When you write these checks, you are aligning your intention with the universe, signaling that you are ready and willing to receive.
Doing this every month simply re-affirms that intention.
What are Abundance Checks?
Abundance checks are a tool we can use to create more abundance in our lives. They are written within 24 hours after a New Moon.
Surprisingly, you really don't even need to believe that the check will work when you write it. You will however be amazed at the results, as you will see increased abundance in your life, in some life area. It is not always financial, but certainly in an area that you need.
If you do not have a checking account you can draw a check on a piece of paper and fill it out the same way--the results will be the same, more abundance for you.
Here's how to do them:

1) Within 24 hours after a New Moon, take a check from your check book. Where it says "Pay to," write your name.

2) In the little box on the same line where you would fill in a dollar amount write "Paid in full."

3) On the line underneath your name (or payable to), where you would write out a dollar amount, write "Paid in full."

4) Sign the check : "The Law of Abundance."

Do not put a date on the check.
Do not write a specific dollar amount in the check.
Put in a safe place and forget about it.
The Universe will take it from there.

Many people are skeptical about trying this until they do it. After the first time they realize the power of these checks and do them routinely every month! Try it yourself and see!

If you enjoy this ritual, do it for the next three New Moons and see what happens."

The Witches Medicine Cabinet

2010-09-24T04:47:00.002-04:00

I Copied this from WITCHY WISDOM (my favorite haunt)

~The Witches Medicine Cabinet~

As witches we should have a stock of medicines and remedies or recipes for such in our first-aid cabinet. Many every day aches, pains and illnesses can be treated effectively at home.

Herbs have been used for food and healing, by all cultures, for thousands of years. Many of the common culinary herbs are rich in vitamins, minerals and trace elements and are recognised as being beneficial to good health. For example, garlic is a natural antibiotic, parsley is rich in vitamin C and iron, mint aids digestion. The most natural way to benefit from these herbs is to include them regularly in a balanced diet.

Many minor ailments can be safely treated at home, using wild or cultivated herbs. However, many herbs have extremely potent properties and it is vital that you correctly identify and fully understand the properties of a plant before using it.

The first thing to assess when looking at your own natural first aid kit is which conditions benefit from a simple natural treatment and which situations need more urgent attention. Obviously, if you have a broken bone, a laceration that requires stitches, a puncture wound or other symptoms that require professional help you must seek it.

There are, however, many excellent herbal and other natural preparations that should be in your first aid kit, e.g. Echinacea tincture, a tincture of yarrow, calendula cream or ointment, a topical horse chestnut extract product (in a gel or cream formula), arnica tincture or ointment for bruises, a few simple herbal teas, such as peppermint and chamomile, and a combination herbal salve for minor bites and scrapes. Also, keep Bach Rescue Remedy in your first-aid kit, along with a good muscle balm and a chest rub.

However... If in any doubt about the safety of the herb DO NOT USE IT!Essentials

Echinacea - for any kind of cut or minor wound. Echinacea speeds healing by preventing infection and developing new tissue at the site of a wound.

Yarrow - to stop bleeding It also acts as a local anesthetic. The oil is anti-..inflammatory and stimulates the formation of healing wound tissue. Closes wounds quickly, therefore make sure the wound is clean before applying.

Calendula - to soothe the skin and accelerate healing. To treat minor burns and scrapes. It has antiseptic, anti-..inflammatory, astringent and immune-..stimulating properties. Good for taking the discomfort out of excema.

Horse chestnut - for bruises or sprains, reducing pain, bruising, and swelling of sprains and sports injuries. Diminishes the number of tiny openings in capillary walls, which helps to "seal" the outflow of fluid surrounding tissue.

A good general herbal salve - including comfrey, chickweed, Echinacea, calendula, goldenseal, plantain, essential oils, and a host of other herbs.

Bach Rescue Remedy - combining star of Bethlehem, rock rose, impatiens, cherry plum and clematis flower essences. The flower remedies work on a mind-body level, centred around life force energyIt is harmless and could help in many stressful situations.

Peppermint tea - for any mild upset stomach or nausea.

Chamomile tea - to calm an upset stomach and help children fall asleep. To soothe irritation in the gastrointestina..l tract. An excellent anti-..inflammatory.

Slippery elm - a teaspoonful in a cup of hot water, stirred vigorously, is an excellent beverage when recovering from the flu or when the stomach is unable to hold down any other food. It's also used in lozenges to soothe a sore throat.

Muscle balms and chest rubs - including ingredients such as camphor, menthol, peppermint oil, cinnamon oil, clove oil or other essential oils that will penetrate and help relax muscles. Also helps to relieve chest congestion.

Aloe Vera Gel
Use fresh gel from the plant or f you have to buy the most pure gel you can find, the Lilly of the Desert brand is good. Aloe Vera is invaluable for treating burns, sunburn, inflamed skin, rashes and acne. It also makes an excellent toning, anti aging moisturizer. However if you have an aloe vera plant you can cut a piece of the plant and squeeze the gel inside straight onto the above wounds.

Arnica Cream/..Gel/..Ointment/..Infused Oil
Excellent for applying to bruises (where there is no broken skin), mild sprains and aching muscles. Can't stress enough how good arnica is for preventing bruising...it can be amazing!

Echinacea Tincture
Available in both adult and children’s versions, echinacea is an essential herb to help the body to fight off any infection. Use as instructed, continuing for a week or two after infection subsides.

Lavender Oil
Anti bacterial, anti-..inflammatory oil good for calming inflammation and helping to induce relaxation.

Myrrh Powder
Anti-bacterial and anti-fungal powder, which can be can be dusted onto wounds, abscesses, ulcers and boils. Can be held in the mouth but not swallowed.

Tea Tree Oil
One of the best anti-fungals with antiseptic action too. Use diluted on sensitive skin or young children, otherwise use neat.

Tiger Balm
Available in white (cooling) or Red (warming). The red can stain clothes so beware! Excellent as a rub for aching muscles, cooling down insect bites and soothing headaches.

Grafefruit Seed Extract

Good for fungal infections especially thrush and candida...Ingredients

10 drops essential oil of peppermint

10 drops essential oil of eucalyptus

5 drops essential oil of clove

60 ml extra-virgin olive oil or coconut oil

15 g beeswax

Heat olive oil and beeswax in a double-boiler over low heat. Stir until wax is melted. Remove from heat. Stir in essential oils, and pour into small glass or metal containers to cool. Preparing Herbal Remedies

To get the maximum benefit from herbal remedies they must be properly prepared. Women of childbearing age should always make sure the herbs they are using are safe during pregnancy. Also how they affect children can be different to how they affect adults so make sure you follow any instructions to the letter.

But don't let this be too scary.....herbalism is a very important part of the craft. Here are some standard herbal preparations:

Infusions

A standard infusion is prepared by adding 1 to 2 teaspoons of dried herb (or 2 to 4 teaspoons of fresh herb) to a cup of boiling water. Infuse for 10 minutes before straining. If the herb is left too long, the infusion will become bitter. It's best to use a ceramic pot with a lid.

The standard dosage is one cup three times a day. It may be taken hot or cold, but infusions prepared for colds and flu should be taken hot. Never prepare the infusion more than 24 hours in advance.

Decoctions

This is usually the method of choice for bark and seeds. Use 1 to 2 teaspoons of herb per cup of cold water. Bring the mixture gently to a boil. Keeping covered, simmer for about 10 minutes.

The usual dosage is 1 cup three times a day. If the herb is very bitter or strong, use 4 teaspoons three times a day. Prepare no more than 24 hours in advance.

Tinctures

A tincture is an alcoholic extraction of a herb. Alcohol dissolves the active constituents out of the plant matter and acts as a preservative, allowing the tincture to retain its effectiveness for up to 2 years. Any part of the plant may be used.

Place 4 ounces of dried herb in a glass jar with a tight-fitting lid and add 2 cups vodka. Leave for two weeks, shaking occasionally, then strain through a cloth into a brown glass bottle. Keep tightly closed.

The standard dosage is up to 8 drops three times daily.

Herbal Wine

Use a sweet red wine with an alcohol content of at least 12%. Cover four ounces of herb with three cups of wine. Leave for a week before straining.

Take four teaspoons one or two times daily. Herbal wine is best used within a month.

Syrup

Sugar is a good preservative and is ideal for cough mixtures, especially since some herbs for cough are very bitter.

Prepare two cups of an infusion or decoction of the required herb. Strain and add 1¾ cup brown sugar or a honey and sugar mixture. Heat gently until the sugar dissolves. Pour into a clean glass bottle and seal. Store in the refrigerator.

The standard dosage is 1-2 teaspoons three times a day.

Capsules

Dry, powdered herb can be placed inside empty capsules. This method is preferred by some people who cannot tolerate bitter herbs.

Oil Infusion

Oil infusions are for external use only. They can be prepared by hot or cold methods. For the hot method, fill a jar with fresh herb and cover with olive, sunflower or almond oil. Place the jar up to the neck in a saucepan of water and bring to a medium temperature. Simmer for up to three hours. Strain through filter paper or cloth into a brown glass bottle. Follow the same instructions for the cold method, except that the oil should be placed on a sunny windowsill instead of heated. The process can be repeated with the strained oil infusion and a fresh supply of herbs to make a stronger oil.

Cream

A cream is a blend of oil, beeswax/cocoa butter and water. You can make your own, or purchase an unscented, water based cream. After adding herb to purchased cream, simmer in the top of a double boiler for 30 minutes. Strain before it cools.

Melt two ounces beeswax in a double boiler. Add one cup olive or other vegetable oil and blend. Add two ounces herb. For lighter cream, add a little water, mixing well. Simmer 20 minutes, mixing well. Add a drop of tincture of benzoin as a preservative. Strain thorough a cloth in to sterilized jars.

Ointment

Ointment does not penetrate the skin like cream, but covers and protects it. Petroleum jelly is a good base, and the method is the same as for a cream.

Melt petroleum jelly in a double boiler and add plenty of herbs, making sure that the melted petroleum jelly covers the herb. Simmer until the herbs are crisp. More herb may be added to make a stronger ointment. Strain into jars while hot.

Suppositories

These are best made in advance so they will be ready when needed. Blend equal quantities of powdered herbs with cocoa butter. Place the mixture into bullet-shaped molds made of foil and refrigerate. Remove the foil before use.

Compress

Soak a cloth in a hot decoction of herb, squeeze most of the liquid out and apply the hot cloth to the affected area. Once it has cooled, repeat the process. Tinctures of other herbs and essential oils can be added to the liquid.

Poultice

Poultices are effective for boils, abscesses, chest infections and sprains. Mix chopped herb or powdered seeds with boiling water to make a pulp. Place the pulp in a piece of cloth and apply to the affected area while hot. It should be replaced when cool. A thin layer of calendula cream will protect the skin and prevent the poultice from sticking.

Steam and Inhalant

Use steam for skin problems like acne and an inhalant for bronchial problems like sunusitis and laryngitis. Add a strong decoction, one or two drops of essential oils, or 2 teaspoons of tincture to boiling water. Add salt if the chest is congested.Bach Flower Remedies

Each of the 38 remedies discovered by Dr Bach is directed at a particular characteristic or emotional state. To select the remedies you need you only need to think about the sort of person you are and the way you are feeling. Then you take the remedies you need.

There is also a combination remedy called rescue remedy ...is the most famous of the remedies, but in fact is not a remedy at all, but rather a mix of five different remedies (Cherry Plum, Clematis, Impatiens, Rock Rose and Star of Bethlehem) which together help deal with any emergency or stressful event. Taking a driving test, exam nerves, speaking in public, after an accident or an argument - there are countless uses for Rescue Remedy.

In an emergency Rescue Remedy can be taken neat from the bottle, four drops at a time, and as frequently as required. Otherwise put four drops in a glass of water and take frequent sips until the emotions have calmed.Witch Heal Thyself.

I’m not sure who first said, ‘witch, heal thyself’, but it is something that you will hear repeated a lot in witchy circles. It is generally said as a reminder that we all have the capability to heal ourselves just as well if not better, than we can heal other people. While it can be about mixing the right herbs or burning the right aromatherapy oils, it is more often about using the power of our minds and our connection with the divine and natural energy around us, to channel inwards.

If someone was to ask your help in sending energy to them, towards a specific emotional state or ailment, you would have the tools in your Book of Shadows now to be able to do that. Everything that you could do for them, you could do for yourself. Of course, it’s much easier to be objective about other people’s troubles,..whereas you have to fight through your own feelings and narrow perspective in order to do the same for yourself; but you have that emotional core to fuel the energy and you have more information about the root of the trouble.

Once it connects, therefore, it can be the most powerful energy work you will ever do. There is a certain amount of self-..sufficiency built into Wicca. We all become priests/..priestesses, then high priests/..priestesses; and the solitary practitioner is increasingly common.

This isn’t to say that Wiccans shouldn’t ask for help, when the need is great enough, but that eyebrows would be raised if it was aid given for something that could easily have been sorted out for oneself, if knowledge of their craft was adequate. We are all human beings and there will be times when the ways ahead appear so swampy that something seemingly massive might otherwise have been brushed off as insignificant.

Wicca does not ask that we become superhuman merely that we try to sort ourselves out before it gets that far. We all know – or should know – by now that emotion fuels the energy around us. If we constantly darken that energy with negative thoughts and pessimism about the future then we shouldn’t be surprised when the world rearranges itself to fit our thoughts. If you were sending out love and light into the world you would focus on everything being calm and lovely creating that aura within and without you, then you would send it out.

Now reverse that. Imagine yourself worrying over every little detail and deciding that the worst will happen. What are you doing to the energy around you? All of this, I believe, is the true basis of Wicca, once you understand that, as you evidently do, then all spellwork can be built upon it and all your day to day living too.Positive thinking does not have to be unrealistic. There is a school of thought that says that you can focus and think your way into attracting lottery wins and gorgeous lovers, but what I’ve been referring to are more mundane things.

If you find yourself speculating that something bad is going to happen, then simply tell yourself that it’s speculation and you can’t possibly know yet; that there is as much a chance that everything will go right than it might go wrong. Unless you are really worried, check with yourt divinatory tool.

Let it go.

Energy aside, people often take their cues from your body language. If you relax, then they might too. The language that you use might be significant. For example, if you are struggling to pay your bills, then focussing on ‘debt, debt, destitution, debt’ are inviting these things into your lives.

Instead, focus on ‘change of fortune, way forward through these times’ etc. Think about what you are saying in your mind and throughout your emotional statejust as hard as you consider the words for your chants. You are leaking energy and fuelling it with your will. These things are the basis of a spell.

Sometimes, however, things happen too quickly and too emotionally to cope with schooling your thoughts in that way. Often we can call friends and family for help, but if things are happening too fast then it might be deity on the other end of the SOS.

As Wiccans, it is useful to do your homework beforehand, just in case an emergency situation requires the same sort of screaming for Mother or Father as you might have done as a baby, only this time in the divine sense. You can give thanks later. If it happens that you don’t know which deity to invoke, then that isn’t cause for panic.Just call upon the Lord and Lady, the right aspect will come and you can determine later on who that might have been

My Herbal Medicine CabinetI use many different herbs and oils for home remedies. Paul is one of those allergic people who is very sensitive to artificial ingredients and I have to search quite hard to find things that doesn't upset his asthma or excema.

I keep lavender, eucalyptus and tea tree oils in my cabinet. They can be used neat onto the skin unlike some oils and are excellent for many different things.

Lavender - I use for spots, cuts and any broken skin because it helps to rebalance the skin and prevents scarring. Also good for insomnia.

Tea tree - Head lice (urgh), athletes foot, put in the hair to stop gnats and midgies biting, also as an antiseptic.

Aloe vera - For burns, scalds and sunburn.I use a bought prepartion gel even though I have the plant because the smell is not nice. I once stood on my hair tongs in bare feet and the pain was horrific but thanks to aloe vera I didn't have a single scar or mark.

Arnica - Is wonderful! It takes away swellings and bruisings almost over night. Before I found arnica my legs would be covered with bruises from the steroids but I can put arnica on and now have bruise free legs. It is also amazingly good for arthritis. I keep the flowers and make a bath tea for a soak they really help with aches and pains. I use a muslin cloth tied with wool and hang it in the bath.

Peppermint - a tea made from peppermint is is really good for indigestion and upset stomaches.

Mennuca oil - is one of the best anti-itch oils I have ever found, brilliant for dermatitis and excema.

Cloves - toothache also clove oil is good for mouth ulcers.

Callendula (marigolds) - heals broken skin beautifully we keep it for Paul's excema. Use a small handful of marigold flowers, about half a pint of hot water steep and use to wash the broken skin, helps healing and prevents scarring. I also have a bought jar of callendula gel.

Eucalyptus Oil - As a steam inhalant. Really clears the nose ..strong though so only use a drop or two at most.

Eyebright - Use a teaspoon of eyebright and pour on hotwater to make a tea, strain with a tea strainer and allow to cool. Once cool bathe the eyes either with an eye bath or if the eyes are just strained and tired use a cotton ball and leave on like a compress. I particularly like it chilled cos it is lovely and refreshing on sore eyes. But must be used up within a day or two, even if kept in the fridge.

A cold remedy I use - a little fresh ginger about half an inch-ish, a broken stick of cinnamon, 4 cloves, some lemon slices or a teaspoon of lemon juice, some honey to taste. Simmer in a pint of water for 15 minutes with the lid on drink a cup three or four times a day.

A sore throat gargle - 3 tsp cider vinegar, 1 tsp honey, a small handful of sage leaves. Make a tea with the sage then strain and add the vinegar and honey, gargle 3 times a day.

As you can see using herbs for healing is a huge subject, it is worth getting yourself a good herbalism book to help you. This does not necessarily be by a magickal practioner. We will cover the magickal use of herbs next week...Conditions Which May be Treatable with Herbs:

There is only one thing u ever need to renounce in your entire life and its your false sense of separation from God. If God wanted u to be like anyone else He would've created u that way. But HE DIDN'T! HE MADE U EXACTLY AS U ARE & THERE IS NOTHING WRONG WITH U. The only place to meet God is in the present moment & the only time is right now. Don't let your ego distract u by spinning u a bs future or dragging u through the past. Remain in the moment & allow yourself to just BE fully present here & now.

2 More Floor Wash Recipes

2010-01-23T21:18:00.001-05:00

Spring Water Floor Wash
An excellent floor wash can be made by crushing a dozen white eggshells into a fine powder and adding a gallon of spring water. If this is applied to the floor following a good spiritual cleansing, it will aid in preventing the accumulation of spiritually negative forces. The room should be cleaned thoroughly first to get rid of the dirt, then mopped to promote spiritual cleansing. This would be considered a final rinse.
-from: http://mysticwicks.com/showthread.php?p=3121342

Floor Wash
What You Need:
Large Bucket
Flora from around your house, area, neighborhood etc. (flower petals, tall sweet grass, pine needles, leaves, small sticks even weeds.)
6 drops of Honey
Sturdy Wooden Spoon
Water
Collecting the flora... I usually recommend doing this at early springtime but it works anytime of the year to get things started! Fill the bucket about halfway with the flora you have discovered and then fill the bucket until the water covers the flora by at least an inch.... drop in the drops of honey and stir it all up with the spoon. Let the contents settle. Mop or scrub an already cleaned floor surface with the water in the bucket. There will be flower petals, grass blades, leaves and things all over the floor. Let it dry and then sweep all the flora up into a dust pan and throw it out the door. This cleanses your home of any negativity present and also opens a doorway for prosperity to flow in. You can repeat this as much as you wish but it only took one time for me to see results and now I do it each spring.

The Chronicles Of Super Witch 09-> Demystifying Chain Letters

I'm sure I speak for nearly everyone when I state that I despise chain letters. We've all been the recipient of information we never wanted or needed at the hands of those who are enchanted by the stupid things.

Allow me to explain what those who do believe them are failing to see. Chain letters are ALL bullshit. The heart wrenching stories, the death threats, the misfortune and the list goes on.

The only REAL power a chain letter has is POS (power of suggestion). They suggest that something good will happen to you and your loved ones if you forward them, and that something bad or unwanted will befall you and your loved ones should you choose not to pass them on. So, don't waste your precious time even reading them, they are designed to manipulate you and everyone else who reads them.

When I receive a chain letter, I delete it without reading it, because, honest to God, I don't care about the bullshit that some loser with an overactive imagination & too much free time feels the need to harass millions of people with. The only way to break the spell of chain letters is to see them for the lies they are and refuse to pass them on no matter how wonderful the reward sounds and how devastating the consequences sound. NEITHER ONE WILL HAPPEN.

They do not in any way affect your life, or the lives of others except to annoy and upset everyone who gets them. So do yourself and everyone else a favor by refusing to pass them forward.

Blessings

HOW WORDS CAN BUILD UP OR DESTROY YOUR INTIMATE RELATIONSHIPS

2009-11-20T21:55:00.003-05:00

This blog was NOT written By Me, a friend on twitter sent me the link and it was so awesome I had to share the article:)
HOW WORDS CAN BUILD UP OR DESTROY YOUR INTIMATE RELATIONSHIPS
-By Tobin Crenshaw

It has been said that a tape recorder will teach you more about communication than reading half a dozen books. Some times we don’t say what we think we say, nor do we always sound like we think we sound. Hearing it live and in color can make a big difference. That is because communication can be easy, and it can be very complicated.

When I was taking a graduate course on speaking, we talked about several parts of speech that are extremely relevant to how we communicate to one another in our deepest relationships.

First, there is what you meant to say. You had an idea to convey to your partner, but sometimes mistranslation happens, both in our mind and in theirs.

This brings us to part two, which is what we actually said. Perhaps what we said and what we meant to say are very different based upon our tone of voice or body language, or the words we chose to use. Semantics are no small thing. For instance, calling your buddy “stupid” may elicit a laugh and a grin at work. Using that word with your spouse who may have a severe aversion to criticism can leave you in a tough spot or sleeping on the couch.

This leads us to the third part of communication, which is what your lover hears. Again, mistranslation occurs very often. I tell couples that I counsel that communicating with your lover by text messaging and email is a bad idea. Using sound bites when you are trying to communicate with your significant other is a slippery slope. People read something that gets filtered through their own inner voice which they hear as they read words. We often read into words something that isn’t there.

This take us to part four, which is what your lover thinks they heard you say. When it comes to interpretation, we can be hit or miss. Step five is what your lover then says that you said, and step six is where it becomes even more complicated because it comes full circle with your interpretation of what you think your lover said you said. Shew! If you are confused that is ok, just understand that communication has several dynamics.

With communication being so complicated, is it any wonder people often misinterpret intentions? In fact, one of the most damaging things you can do in a relationship is to believe you know someone else’s motives. This is a dangerous and damaging game to play.

So how do make something that can be so complicated work? The good news is that it is actually very simple, when you just keep a couple of things in mind. The first thing to remember is that we can listen five times as fast as we can speak. As Norman Wright relates, “If someone speaks at 120 words per minute and you can listen at 600 words per minute, what are you doing with the extra time?” For instance, when your lover is talking are you off on a bunny trail in your mind, or are you waiting for your chance to speak or wishing they were done talking so you could interject a thought? If so, you are not really listening, which is the key to good communication.

Listening means that when another person is talking you are not thinking about what you are going to say when your partner is silent. This is incredibly disrespectful and hurtful to your partner. Truly listening is being present in the moment, taking in everything they are saying. It takes focused effort that lets the other person know they are important to you. Listening is taking in what is being stated without making a judgment, i.e. you are not saying what you think they said but rather just receiving it.

In fact, once you posit motives you can drain the life and energy out of the relationship. Think about it, haven’t we all had times when we exaggerated another person’s words? They make an innocent comment and we respond, “Ohhh, I see, you think I’m stupid.” In fact, couples know well how to play this game on one another, using words as weapons such as, “You are just like your mother.” How much better to choose our words wisely, and fully listen by being present as our lover speaks.

So the next time you are having a conversation, notice what you are doing as the other person speaks. Actively pay attention to how easily your thoughts drift away, or how quick you are to take over the conversation as soon as the other person takes a breath.

Try this instead, look into their eyes when they are talking (unless you are driving!), give feedback beyond grunts such as, “I understand what you mean,” and don’t use that extra time in your mind to drift away but rather stay engaged in the moment. If you do this, you won’t have to worry about trying to figure what your partner said about what you said, you will be able to relax and just talk!

The Chronicles Of Super Witch 08-> Blessed Be All New Witches
I have found that people new to the craft are easily intimidated and 'afraid' to voice their own beliefs and opinions for fear of rejection, mockery or just being made to feel stupid.

Personally, I love speaking with those who are new to the craft, I find them very refreshing. From my experience, they have just as much to teach as we seasoned Witches do, and I have never ever witnessed one witch bashing another for any reason.

I think the cutest thing they do is start their sentences with phrases like: "you're not gonna believe this, but..." to which I always answer "TRY ME!"

Or my other favorite: "Ok, this might sound a little crazy, but..." To which I reply "Crazy is just another fancy word for 'NOT CHRISTIAN!' As a Witch, I highly doubt that anything you're about to tell me is CRAZY!"

I know all of us Witches are open and honest with each other and it just makes me sad that younger and newer people in the craft are so afraid of harsh judgement and criticism.

So to anyone who feels inadequate because you don't know all there is to know, I just want to say neither does anyone else. Witchcraft is a constant cycle of learning and teaching. And No one knows everything save God/dess. So if nothing else, feel comforted that you are among like minded people who are proud to NOT be know it alls:)

We are Not a 'humble or meek' people as in the sense of Christianity, We are a RESOURCEFUL and Empowered people who WILL step up to the plate to help others in any way we can. The difference between us and Christians is that we know we are never POWERLESS to do what we will, especially when it is for the highest good of all concerned.

The Chronicles Of Super Witch 07-> Love Spells And Why I Hate Them...
Archangels' Warning:) Although I've posted several of them in my groups, I personally despise love spells, and I've listed my reasons below..

Most people who perform love spells do so with the intent of making someone else 'fall in love with them'. Not only is this unnatural in my opinion, but it's also morally wrong. There are also other cases in which a person genuinely has loving feelings toward someone else, and they have no idea if the other person feels the same about them so they cast love spells or truth spells to find out. The problem with doing this is that nothing ever goes according to plan. I think if you must cast any spell, cast a spell for the courage and articulation you will need to reveal your own feelings to the object of your affections. If the person feels the same, that's fantastic. If not, ask why, maybe, its just bad timing. Who knows, but that doesn't mean you can't be friends with this person. If a love spell seems like the only way to help you right now, it's only because you chose to feel that way.

My biggest issue with love spells is this: Few consider the RIGHTS (such as free will) and FEELINGS of the person they're about to hex. I used to feel completely insulted when others would ask me to do a love spell for them and so & so. I would refuse and then cite every risk I could think of in hopes of changing their minds. It seldom worked. So Here is some food for thought instead...

Questions You Should Ask Yourself First:)
Ask yourself the following questions (and be willing to answer them Honestly), Before attempting to do a love spell on anyone (yourself included). Keeping in mind that I'm not judging you, or trying to force my opinions on you. I AM, however, helping you to get in touch with your soul and be your own judge:)

* What if that person loves someone else?
* What if the person he/she does love is in fact his/her soulmate?
* How would you feel if someone stole your soulmate from you?
* What if it works and he/she is NOT the one for you after all?
* What if he/she becomes obsessed with you?
* How deserving of your love would you consider someone who did this to you?
* Do you really believe you can just undo it once it has been done?
* What if he/she commits suicide or murder because you decided you 'don't want them anymore'?
* Can you honestly live with something like that on your conscience, and why would you choose to do so?
* Did you realize 'Because I love him/her' is NOT an appropriate answer because this is clearly not an act of love?
* Has it occurred to you why a person who would do this is evidently undeserving of the partner they seek to possess?
* Do you realize people are not toys or possessions you can just play with & throw out/give away when you're bored?
* Are you willing to take responsibility for the thoughts, words and actions of this other person after you cast the spell?
* Do you realize that love spells are 'Caging Spells' and serve to strip people of free will so they become subject to your will?
* Do you really believe you have the right to do that to anyone, or that anyone else has the right to do that to you?
* Have you seriously considered the harm this will assuredly cause all involved?
* At which point did you decide you alone knew what was 'best' for another person?
* Have you ever thought to yourself 'This is crazy!' ? Did you realize you were probably right?
* Do you have enough money to pay for the years of therapy you and your subject will require, (probably for the rest of your lives), to undo the damage these so called love spells cause?
* Have you REALLY convinced yourself that you can HANDLE the Bad Karma you're bringing to yourself by following through with this?
* Do you realize that using magick to make Him/Her YOURS at any cost is selfish and a misuse of power that you will be severely punished by Karma for?
* Think of a person you despise. How PISSED would you be if THAT person pulled the same loser move on you?
*What are you going to do when this person figures out what you've done and turns on you? And believe me he/she Will end up being your worst and most dangerous enemy, its only a matter of time and you only have yourself to blame for it.

If you still want to do a love spell, scroll down.....
I strongly advise AGAINST ingesting any plant, flower/herb/incense ash without knowing the following:)
* exactly what the ingredients are
* whether or not the herbs and/or plants have been chemically treated,
* whether they are safe or toxic.

You're like a wolf in so many ways,

You seem to 'just know' when something is wrong.

You sniff out the problems & chase them away
You give sound advice and always know what to say.

Earth Angels...

2009-09-05T16:12:00.000-04:00

Earth Angels...

If you could see what I can see,
sometimes you'd beg God/dess to be blind;
Past, Present And future,
I see clearly inside my mind.

I feel how hurt and broken your heart is,
I hear your spirit cry for peace;
I receive the thoughts you direct to me,
And all I want is to bring you ease.

You can disbelieve every word I say,
deny to yourself what I say is true;
I can still reach deep inside your soul,
I hear your angels plead with you.

They are asking you to listen, please,
Open your heart wide, PUSH IT as far as it will go;
Let your soul light shine bright enough
to find God/dess inside yourself, and grow.

If you continue running away like you are,
while fear manipulates your heart;
You'll end up in more pain than you can bear
to find yourself stuck back at the start.

I'm not reaching out to hurt or scare you,
or cause you stress or pain;
I want you to know that all of your suffering,
has not been survived in vain.

God/dess has a purpose for you,
Blessed Earth Angels that you are;
And His/Her Love for you exceeds all else,
it is written in the stars.

You're future is safe and protected,
regardless of what you choose to do;
So long as you trust your intuition,
it was given to protect you.

And remember when you feel alone,
an army of Angels is at your side;
They form a ring of protection around you
where only God/dess 's true love can abide.

But when your heart is closed,
their blessings roll off of you like rain;
You repel the very healing you're asking for,
while fear attacks and controls your brain.

Whenever you're feeling hurt and angry,
lonely, worthless, depressed or used;
I want you to know you can come to me
when you are beat down and abused.

I can handle the worst in you,
I can make you see the best;
When you're tortured by insomnia,
I will lay your pain to rest.

You do not walk this earth alone,
I am ALWAYS here for you;
So take my hand in friendship
and I will pull you through.

Brightest Blessings, Love & Squishes

The Chronicles Of Super Witch 06-> What To Do About Differing Beliefs...
Being a 3rd Degree High Priestess, who has had to help many Christian people, I have learned to respect people from all walks of life.

When I am blessing a home or Christian person, I do so in a Christian manner because it gives their spirit PEACE. Everyone deserves comfort, especially in their own home. I would never presume to flaunt witchcraft in front of a devout Christian because it SCARES them. Deliberately frightening a person is considered harming them in my opinion.

Having studied for years, My approach to the Craft is an Eclectic one, wherein I LEARN about ALL religions, so that I can better help others from all walks of life.

I may hold different beliefs personally, however I do not let What I believe to be correct/right/true become MORE IMPORTANT than the person before me who is asking me for help.

I am secure in my own beliefs and my own Faith is unshakable. For that reason, I try to restore that same level of faith in others by getting them back to their own spiritual ROOTS whatever they may be:)

The same holds true in relationships when two people are in love but have different beliefs. If you are motivated by LOVE, you will support your partner, and vice versa:) There is a Middle ground, Its called balance, when you get to the point where you feel " I love you so much it doesn't matter."

If that kind of loving approach can be taken with everyone, in a brotherly/sisterly love fashion, I see no reason WHY we can't all just get along:)

Becoming self-righteous is counter productive and cuts you off from being able to help others, much less recognizing those who need you. And defeats your purpose of being here:)

Whenever you catch yourself Judging another for what they do or don't believe, you must actively push those thoughts out of your head as quickly as they entered and ELEVATE.

So if there's one other thing I can teach you right now, it's to consider the source of those judgements. Where are they coming from?

And as my beloved friend whom I love like my brother Adam once said to me: "By all means TEST the spirit behind any teaching or information you receive."

I think becoming more tolerant and accepting of the beliefs of others is WHY my faith became unshakable, and Just wanted to pass this along;)

Bonnyville Mounties say a bogus Amber Alert is being spread by text message.

Police there said they've taken several calls today over an Amber Alert claiming a three-year-old child had just been abducted in Bonnyville by someone driving a silver truck. The text message also provided a license plate number for the truck.

Mounties said there's been no such abduction, the license plate number does not exist, and Amber Alerts are not issued by text message.
http://www.edmontonsun.com/news/2009/07/15/10146031.html

Here's the amber alert, which is still circulating...
<<<<>>>> OSHAWA - 3 YEAR OLD GIRL TAKEN BY MAN DRIVING NEWER SILVER TRUCK PLATE # 72B381 . [Please keep this going - copy and paste this amber alert into your status. It could be your child or sibling, her parents would very much appreciate it and your post could lead to her being found.]

I don't know about anyone else but that's a sick thing to joke about.

10 Ways To Fail As A Conscious Creator

2009-07-16T17:00:00.000-04:00

5 Ways To Fail As A Conscious Creator

Read on to ensure you're not making the law of attraction work against you!
To ensure you're making the law of attraction work for you - not against you - be sure you're not making these common errors:

1 - Don't Believe You Can Achieve it.

This is by far the most subversive saboteur of all. Not believing is the subtle, lethal destroyer of our dreams. Many conscious creators will claim loudly, "But, I DO believe and it still isn't happening!" If you do not manifest what you want, rest assured that you do not believe you can achieve it on some level. This shows up as attachment. When we don't believe we can have what we want, we feel attached (afraid, sad, resentful, angry etc.)

If what you want does not manifest there are only two reasons (and they are intimately entangled to such a degree that they cannot be undone without awareness.) The first and foremost is on some level you do not and have not accepted your unlimited potential; you do not believe you deserve it and you believe (no matter how embedded and hidden the belief) that what you want is not possible for you. This belief is some semblance of a core limiting belief such as: I'm not good enough; nothing ever works out for me; people like me don't get things like that, I'm not intelligent enough, I'm not worthy, etc.

The other reason for not getting what you say you want is because you have another desire that simply outweighs the one that's not manifesting. The Universe is answering your strongest point of attraction at all times and you are not taking that into account.

For example, you want more prosperity and therefore you attempt to manifest more clients. However, simultaneously you want more time freedom to spend with your family. Somewhere within you, you believe that if you have more clients you'll have less time with your family. If your positive desire for family time is stronger than your desire for more clients, family time will win and you will be unable to attract more clients. The solution must be to break the limiting belief and be inspired to manifest a solution to having both, more prosperity and more time freedom.

2 - Dig Up the Seeds to See if They Are Growing.

Would you plant tulips on Monday and dig up the dirt to see if they are sprouting on Tuesday and then again on Wednesday, and again on Thursday, and so on?

No. However, that's exactly what we do with the Law of Attraction: plant a seed on Monday and by Tuesday you're digging it up! We give the Universe our list of what we want in a mate. Show up to the single's event and say, "Okay. where is he/she?" You look around and immediately feel disappointed that no one here appears to be a match to anything on your order form!

This sends out a ray of doubt and negativity that then makes your harvest that much farther away. Instead, choose to be patient and trust, trust, trust in the Divine Timing.

3 - Ignore Your Negative Emotions and Doubts.

This one is tricky because ignoring your negative emotions and doubts is better than cementing them into reality by sharing them with others without release. However, if you have doubts that you ignore and sweep under the carpet then you are still sabotaging your dreams.

A negative emotion is your signal from the Universe that you do not believe and you are attached. Ignoring the thought/emotion is like swallowing a teaspoon of pine sol. It won't kill your dream immediately but the end result is going to be more likely to be a pale, wilted version of your ideal manifestation.

What you want to manifest will never be as easy, smooth, magical and fulfilling as when you address and eliminate your doubts.

4 - Dismiss the Small Steps and the Signs of Land as Meaningless.

Attempting to manifest a new car? Did you dismiss the email that had a picture of your car as nothing?

Attempting to manifest a promotion? Did you feel angry when your supervisor insinuated that your work needed improvement?

Attempting to manifest a mate? Did you ignore the smile from that handsome/beautiful stranger on the elevator because they were too tall, too short, not likely to be attracted to you, etc.?

With every manifestation, you will SEE and experience "signs of land". A sign of land is the evidence that you are indeed on the right pathway to manifest what you want. Some signs of land appear as 'driftwood' and other signs appear as beautiful flora and fauna.

Every sign of land is a message from your angels. When you get the negative feedback from your boss, it may be driftwood, but it's an important message that you are NOT aligned with that promotion. You must change something if you are to get that raise from within the company that you are currently employed. It's not something to be upset about but a sign that you have 'work' to do. Very important information, if you are to navigate consciously to the promotion (or dream) you really want.

Recognizing and appreciating the driftwood allows you to then choose how to re-direct your ship. If you feel negative about your sign of land, then it's your inner beings way of telling you that you are heading for unfriendly waters. You want to change your intentions and attention or suffer a shipwreck on savage land.

When you share a smile with a stranger, it's a beautiful bird, sign of land. It doesn't matter whether or not they are the ONE, it only matters that you recognize that your mate is on their way (or here now) because the signs are all around you!

Gratitude is a powerful attractor. Use it to nurture and care for your dreams by giving thanks for every sign of land.

5 - Commit Half-heartedly to Your Law of Attraction Exercises.

Do you get excited about attracting something (for an hour) then your excitement wanes and your exercises peter off into minimal or no effort whatsoever?

Do you write down your top 6 goals for life everyday or do you just hope your subconscious mind remembers what you want for life and guides you every day anyway?

The Law of Attraction is so simple and easy to apply, that most of us take it for granted. We half-heartedly throw out a desire into the air once or twice a day or week, and wonder why what we want isn't happening.

If you're manifesting butterflies or hummingbirds, it is just that easy. throw it into the air with a little bit of gratitude and it will appear.

However, if you want to manifest your status as a millionaire but you're currently living off of credit cards, then a few off the cuff affirmations without ongoing commitment, attention, and inspired action will NOT be enough to create millionaire prosperity.

Write your top 6 goals, every day. Write your list of what you intend to attract, daily. Write down what limiting beliefs keep you from success and EFT them or surrender them.

Persistent visualization along with persistent and consistent inspired action will bring forth incredible manifestations and success.

5 More Ways To Fail As A Conscious Creator
Read on to ensure you're not making the law of attraction work against you!
Through the years of studying the law of attraction, I've become painfully aware of the things that I do to sabotage my success and of course, I watch these same behaviors in my clients.

By becoming aware of the behaviors that keep you from mastering the art of intentional creation, you can then make a decision to do something about it.

Here are 5 more ways to fail as a conscious creator:

1 - Resign Yourself to Not Having What You Want instead of Detaching and SurRendering to the Divine Order.

One of the most difficult concepts of conscious creation is learning how to use the law of detachment. As students, we know it is absolutely critical to detach. We know this so we make bold attempts to "let it go." We force our mouths to say, "I'm okay if I don't get this." Inside, however, we feel anxious and disconnected from those words; or occasionally instead of detaching, we give up which leaves us feeling deflated, discouraged, depressed and hopeless.

We want to detach but a part of us is afraid that if we let it go, it won't happen.

A client recently realized that she didn't want to accept herself exactly as she was; she didn't want to accept that she was already beautiful. She didn't want to let go of the belief that she was 'fat and ugly' because she was afraid that if she accepted and loved herself now, she'd become complacent and lazy and not do anything to improve herself. Instead of loving what is and detaching, she was rejecting her reality (and herself) and thus, repelling the very beauty that she was working so hard to fulfill.

Many law of attraction students refuse to trust in the big Universe and therefore detachment is simply never going to be the powerful trim-tab that it could be in their intentional creation briefcase. However, refusing to detach is better than giving up.

There are three options: One, you are detached and allowing your good. Two, you are attached and resisting your good. Three, you are resigned and no longer attracting your good.

I always know when a client has 'given up' instead of surrendered to the Divine Order and Divine Timing. The swing in their step is gone and their eyes show the sadness that is in their hearts.

Resignation is not detachment! An unsuccessful attempt at applying the law of detachment always feels negative while successful detachment feels confident, certain, and like a peace-filled poncho of hopeful anticipation.

Let me draw some distinctions. You will FEEL the truth as to whether or not you are detached and allowing your desire, attached and repelling it or resigned and no longer attracting it.

Resigned and No Longer Attracting:

* resigned
* apathetic
* sad
* hopeless
* doubtful
* anxious
* lackadaisical
* disappointed
* disillusioned

Attached and Repelling:

* anxious
* fearful
* angry
* impatient
* resentful
* hesitant
* distrustful
* insecure
* abandoned

Detached and Allowing:

* connected
* energetic
* cheerful
* hopeful
* certain
* eager
* inspired to action
* satisfied
* starry-eyed

Detach and allow; trust and let go but never give up!

2 - Focus on the Pie in the Sky ALL the time and Ignore the Meatloaf in Front of You.

If you want to fall down a lot, try to run before you've learned to walk. If you want to stumble terribly, put the cart before the horse. If you want to make a fool of yourself, run for President before you've ever served a day in any lesser office.

If you are focused on attracting a million dollars - GREAT! You can absolutely manifest this type of wealth. I'm not ever going to suggest that you not shoot for the stars. In fact, I encourage you to imagine yourself living in lavish prosperity.

However, if you currently live hand to mouth, then it's very likely that your everyday experience will prevent you from leaping that Grand Canyon in a single bound.

In addition to visualizing ultimate success, visualize what you need right now. It's important to take your 'three-foot' tosses as seriously as your 'grand leaps.'

Accept where you are as perfect and be willing to manifest incrementally. Soon, you'll be able to manifest bigger and bigger dreams because you've built your confidence and your imagination will let in the truth that you are an abundant being.

Imagine an athlete that's unwilling to compete winning the Olympics! Now, imagine a conscious creator who's unwilling to work, suddenly becoming the CEO of a fortune 100.

Visualize and attract both.the optimal success AND the current needs.

3 - Re-tell Your Story to Anyone that Will Listen.
Refuse to Give up Your Past and Deny its Perfection.

Great storytellers always gather crowds. We love a delicious 'overcoming the odds' story of triumph; we find juicy gossip irresistible and have a sincere desire to connect with others who have traveled similar paths.

If you're going to re-tell your story over and over again, then you will want to be aware of your negative emotions as you recount your past. If you can tell your story for the sake of enjoyment, learning, and fun then go ahead, be a storyteller.

However, if you tell "your story" to elicit sympathy or fury from yourself of your audience, then know you are in a cycle of re-living and re-creating more of the same.

Your past is perfect - claim this as you tell your story and your creations will continue to be delicious.

4 - Do it Alone. Don't find Like-Minded, Successful Creators to Play With.

Why do we want to be lone rangers? Why must we insist on overcoming the odds all by ourselves?

By surrounding ourselves with successful people of like minds, we draw into our experience the energy of belief, success, prosperity, joy and freedom.

Success is not defined by obtaining everything you want but by enjoying and appreciating everything you have while patiently persisting in the pursuit of everything you want.

When you choose to play with others who are joyful, for example, you invite more joy into your life. Make a decision to reach out and learn from other law of attraction students; join law of attraction discussion groups; take classes or hire a coach.

If you want to quicken your path towards fulfillment, reach out and selectively surround yourself with those who are already doing it! Almost by default, you will begin to become what you've surrounded yourself by. be it negative or positive.

5 - Be a Lazy Creator.

I am amazed at how often I get an email or a call from a fellow law of attraction student that wants to prove the law of attraction works by sitting on the couch.

In other words, they want to attract what they want without having to do anything physically to get up and achieve and receive it.

Is it possible to have your ideal mate knock on your door? Sure, it has happened. Ladies have married their milkman.

However, that's just crazy, risky and lazy! Don't wait for your lottery to hit, get out there and make it happen. In addition to using the power of your mind to intentionally create what you want, take at least ONE action every day towards your goals.

Don't wait for success; go claim it with whatever 'hard' work you have to for now. When you become aware that you are working 'harder' than you'd like then create it easier.

Persistent visualization along with persistent and consistent inspired action will bring forth incredible manifestations and success.

How to Draw Energy From the Earth

2009-07-16T16:57:00.000-04:00

from Crystal Medicine by Marquerite Elsbeth

This exercise is meant to familiarize you with the Earth-body and with the body-earth your physical body. Performing it regularly will help you to realize that the Earth is alive and very responsive to your attentions.

1. Find a comfortable spot where you can lie down. This spot can be anywhere - on the front lawn, the bed, or living room couch.

2. Close your eyes. Relax. Breathe deeply into your belly and exhale fully several times.

3. Become aware of your physical body. Really get into it from your head down to your toes. Now, shift your attention to the Earth directly below you. Let feelings of gratitude and respect for the Earth spirits well up; stretch these sensations down through all the layers of the Earth until you become aware of the Earth's inner molten core.

4. Once you have reached the inner core of the Earth, feel all your fear, anxiety, and negativity drain down into the earth through your spinal column, beginning at the top and ending at the base of the spine. With your attention still focused at the base of the spine, begin to draw the pure, vital energy up from the Earth's core. Feel it slowly rise up through the spine until it reaches the top.

5. Open your eyes.

7 Steps to Reiki Self-Insight

2009-07-16T16:54:00.000-04:00

Insightful Reiki Steps to Revealing Your Inner Strengths
There are many ways in which we may lose our way, crumple our self-esteem, or simply lose confidence for a period of time.
But whatever happens, we should try never to lose our own sense of Self. This sense of Self is accessed very deeply every time we Turn On our Reiki, and it is an inherently protective and Spiritually Building Experience.

1. Knowing Your Purpose - in Reiki and Life
You may sometimes find yourself wandering through life with little direction - hoping that you'll find happiness, health and prosperity... and this is okay. However, identify your life purpose or personal Mission and you will have your own unique compass that will lead you (Intuitively) to your truth north every time.

This may seem tricky at first when you feel yourself to be in a tight or even dead end. But there is always that little glimmer of Grace that can turn things around and your acknowledgement of this combined with a focus on your Mission, can make a big difference to your experience.

2. Knowing Your Core Values
Ask Yourself - What do you value the most? Make a list of your top 5 values. Some examples are security, family, freedom, spiritual development, learning. As you set your goals for the coming months or year - check your goals against your values. If the goal doesn't align with any of your top five values - you may want to reconsider or revise it, as your values will constantly empower these goals.

3. Know Your True Needs
Needs that are not being met can keep you from living authentically. These unmet needs zap energy from your entire system. Take care of yourself. You must acknowledge if you have a need to be acknowledged, to be right, to be in control, to be loved? There are so many people who have lived their lives without realizing their dreams and most of them end up being stressed out or even depressed, without any real knowledge as to why this is so. List your top four needs and get them met before it's too late! And keep in mind that some needs are Daily or Weekly needs - they keep you going!

4. Know Your Real Passions
You do know who you are, and what you truly enjoy in life. Obstacles like doubt and lack of enthusiasm will only hinder you, but will not derail your chance to become the person you know yourself to be. Express yourself and honor the people who have Inspired you to become the very person you want to be. And, remember to pass on this Inspiration to others- it's always easier than it first seems! A simple sharing of a story or just a few reflective words are usually enough to make a Real Difference.

5. Live - From The Inside Out
Daily, focus on increasing your awareness of your inner wisdom by regularl reflection in silence. Commune with nature. Breathe deeply, and quiet your distracted or restless mind. For most of us it's hard to even find the peace and quiet we want - even in our own home. Simply sit in a dimly lit room and play some soothing music. The benefits of this internal world will Amaze you.

6. Honor Your Strengths
Tell me, what are your positive traits? What special talents do you possess? List three - and if you get stuck, ask those closest to you to help identify these. Are you imaginative, playful, witty, good with your hands? Find ways to express your authentic self through your strengths. This allows Inspiration to flow through you. You naturally increase your self-confidence when you can share what you know to others.

7. Serving Others
Living Authentically, you may find that you develop an interconnected sense of being. When you are true to who you are, living your purpose and giving of your talents to the world around you, you give back in service what you came to share with others - your spirit expressed - your essence revealed. The rewards for sharing your gift with those close to you is extremely rewarding, and much more if it were to be the eyes of a stranger who can appreciate what you have done to them.

This kind of introspective Self-Improvement is indeed one type of work that is worth every effort. It shouldn't always be within the confines of an office building, or maybe in the four corners of your own room. The difference lies within ourselves and how much we want to change for the better. Your Reiki practice will benefit a Hundred Fold through your own self knowledge!

Kundalini Energy

2009-07-16T16:50:00.000-04:00

Stretching back into the corridors of time, Asian religions have spoken of a mystical force called the 'Kundalini'. Throughout history many names have been given to this power. Orgone, esprit, loosh, prana, elan vital, and bio-electricity are some of these names.

The rise of the kundalini is linked with a warm liquidly magnetic energy when it rises up the spine. Physical symptoms connected to the opening of the kundalini may include crackling noises at the base of the neck, and unexplained headaches - but be careful about attributing these symbols to rising kundalini energies. Often they have a medical cause that needs the attention of a physician.

Kundalini energies are sometimes triggered by a blow to the head or other physical trauma timed by your soul to awaken your psychic journey and innate abilities.

Releasing the Kundalini energy too quickly can have serious emotional effects on a person. One should not attempt to open this thrust of energy if one is not in a balanced psychologically. This is not for those with manic depression or bi-polar disorder.

The manifestation of the Kundalini energy - frequency of vibration - links with the Sanskrit term 'Chaitanya' - the integrated force of your physiological, mental, emotional and religious bodies.

Kundalini literally means 'coiling,' like a snake. Energy and consciousness - moves in spiraling motion - coils - loops - the snake. This is a metaphor for the spiraling energies of consciousness - which is our reality of thought and is explained by Sacred Geometry the loops are the loops of time - the slinky effect - time as an illusion played out in a physical game of polarities - duality emotions.

In the classical literature of Hatha Yoga, kundalini is described as a coiled serpent at the base of the spine.

The coiled and dormant 'feminine' energy, refers to the vast potential of psychic energy contained within us all. It is normally symbolized as a serpent coiled into three and a half circles, with its tail in its mouth, and spiraling around the central axis (sacrum or sacred bone) at the base of the spine. The awakening of this serpent and the manifestation of its powers is a primary aim of the practice of Kundalini Yoga.

The image of coiling, like a spring, conveys the sense of untapped potential energy that will spring into action soon. For now we remember in small doses.

Kundalini can be described as a great reservoir of creative energy at the base of the spine. It's not useful to sit with our consciousness fixed in our head and think of kundalini as a foreign force running up and down our spine.

The concept of kundalini can also be examined from a strictly psychological perspective. From this perspective kundalini can be thought of as a rich source of psychic or libidinous energy in our unconscious.

In the classical literature of Kashmir Shaivism kundalini is described in three different manifestations.

The first of these is as the universal energy or para-kundalini.

The second of these is as the energizing function of the body-mind complex or prana-kundalini.

The third of these is as consciousness or shakti-kundalini which simultaneously subsumes and intermediates between these two.

Ultimately these three forms are the same but understanding these three different forms will help to understand the different manifestations of kundalini.

This energy is also related to one's personal storehouse of sexual energy. Kundalini takes sexual energy in its raw form and converts it into fine spiritual energy of an extremely high frequency, which then allows the fruition and activation of paranormal activities such as good quality OBE's, telepathy, matter/energy conversion, and communication with entities that inhabit the vast areas of our multi-dimensional universe.

*Results of opening the Kundalini*
* Opening your Clairvoyant and Clairaudient abilities.
* Feeling connected to the oneness of the universe
* Your mind feels expanded in its quest for higher awareness and knowledge
* Allowing your ego to step aside and connecting with higher frequency of thought and consciousness
* Feeling unconditional love, peace, and connection with spirit
* Anything you wish to manifest is possible with an awakened Kundalini.

More about Kundalini Energy?
-The Kundalini is often described as a female serpent coiled 3 and 1/2 times at the base of your spine...sleeping away. It's a bit bizarre that such a divine being would be taking a nap at the base of your spine, yet she truly contains the most awesome power you can imagine in the Universe. Your Kundalini will sleep here until our bodymind is fully awakened to living 24-7 as the divine all-powerful God-being we truly are. This is called Samadhi. Kundalini is the supreme cosmic enlightening energy, that resides inside us, deep at the core of our being. Kundalini is the most powerful force in the Universe, and brings enlightenment to our world. Your Kundalini awakens the manifesting being in your life!

If we stay stuck in a life we are not excited about or love, the Kundalini snoozes away, patiently waiting for us to become totally conscious and realize that we are NOT just this ego-mind who is identifying with thoughts while feeling trapped in a body. In fact, the very moment we slow down and stop living in our busy heads filled with ideas of our past and future, she begins to rise up our spine and lets us know WE are this awakeness itself.
All our hidden Siddhi powers come from an awakened Kundalini. Examples of the Siddhi powers are supernatural abilities of strength, sight, hearing, levitation, bi-location, instant manifestations, etc... Basically anything you can imagine beyond the everyday world is possible when your Kundalini is awakened. The Siddhi powers are our natural abilities, yet through societal conditioning they have been suppressed and we have been programmed to believe they are malicious or wrong. They are as natural as the warmth from the sun above.

How To Raise Your Kundalini
If you continue to stay in the present moment, you will slowly dissolve the deepest of illusions our mind has been constantly re-creating about a true/false reality and start seeing The Reality of an ever-present energy of divine bliss in everyone and everything. If we buy into the illusions of the mind at any moment, the cosmic Kundalini falls back asleep. She will do this until we are completely present again to the Reality of Existence found only within the Here and Now.
Staying consciously awake in this eternal moment, the phenomena of psychic abilities, paranormal powers and magical manifesting capabilities will naturally begin to appear. She will give you the ability to attracting anything in the Universe you desire. Because you are merging with the Kundalini's infinite power, the body will no longer have ANY experience of having mental, emotional or physical pain. The experience of being bathed in an ever-present Source of divine peace and awesome power will be your new way of living.
If you are open and willing to step into your destiny as a divine being of God, read on. Awakening this incredible power is a very delicate and gentle process. We are connecting with the greatest energy in the Universe. It is so powerful we need to be very tender with it, to allow it in.
When each of the seven major chakra centers in your body are ignited, you will step completely out of the time-bound world of the ordinary and into the most extraordinary super-natural realm of your being. The God and Goddess within you will become very apparent to all, and you will absolutely know without a doubt, the truly magical and all-powerful cosmic God-being you truly are. This is the ultimate goal of the human experience.

Meditation To Ignite Your Kundalini
Sitting on the floor with legs crossed, for the first 5-7 minutes relax every muscle and organ in your body. Imagine a golden white light is caressing you on the inside, releasing every concern, worry and tension you have.
Next, let your body gently undulate back and forth, in small circles, in mini figure eight's, or in whatever ways that feel most natural, easy, effortless and sensually enjoyable. You can even move as you were having a very relaxing slow sexual experience sitting with a divine being. Let the rest of your body move and sway as it needs to.
Let each vertebrae in your entire spine (all the way up to your head) be affected by the undulating motion of your body. The energy is flowing up from the bottom to the top of your head. You can also imagine that your spine is as loose as seaweed on the ocean floor. It is so relaxed and at ease, going with wherever the ocean waves flow. This will loosen the Kundalini up so that she can rise completely out of the top of the head.
During this time, keep your attention on the energy between your sexual anatomy and the base of your spine. As you are undulating, breathe into this lower area deeply and slowly. Imagine a golden Lotus flower radiating rays of light is blossoming there.
With a devoted concentration, you will feel a warm or tingling energy along the base of your spine or higher.
The more conscious and relaxing the experience is, the more the Kundalini will move and grow.
When you begin to feel a rising sensation of energy, stop the undulation and be completely still. Set the intention for your thoughts to slow down and eventually stop. Begin to relax into the stillness. Breathe slowly and deeply up to 5 minutes into your belly, without forcing it. You will notice that your body is breathing on its own. As you continue watching your belly breathe naturally, follow your breath, as it will take you deeper into the stillness.
When you are completely relaxed into the stillness, rest deeply inside. Relax into your spine that should be vertically straight and aligned yet deeply relaxed.
As there is absolutely no more tension in the body, imagine that a rainbow of energy is forming along the back of your spine and down the front of your body (see photo above for basic image). Each area or charka has a specific colored light associated with it. Please visualize the following colors for each area.

Red = Base
Orange = Sexual region
Yellow = Solar plexus
Green = Heart
Blue = Throat
Indigo = Forehead/ 3rd eye
Violet = Top of head
White/golden = Center of the top of the head, aligned with the spine.

Depending on how tall you are, there will be between 3 and 8 quarter sized balls of light in each chakra region. As you place your attention a colored ball, it can ignite your whole body filling it with light
Starting at the base of your spine, follow the center of your body going very slowly up the front to the top of the head, then down the neck, and back following the spine to make a complete rainbow circle. You may also start up the back and go down the front. Go in any direction that feels most natural for you. The quarter sized balls may grow or shrink in size and the colors can merge and fade into the lights next to them.
When you have made at least 10 rainbow circles around the body, imagine that a white/golden ball of light is forming at the center of the Earth, rising up in a column of light to the Earths surface, and entering the base of your spine.
Feel it slowly entering you. As it slowly ascends to the top of your head, allow it to flow out the Crown Chakra like a fountain. Let the energy cascade all over your body and bathe in the shower of this golden loving light. Allow it to penetrate every muscle, organ, and cell in your entire body, and purify your entire energy system!
Stay in the shower of golden light for as long as you can. I recommend doing this golden showering for 10 minutes every day.

How is kundalini awakened through mantra yoga?
In mantra yoga the student is initiated by means of a mantra.
If the kundalini is to be awakened by means of this yoga then it is essential that the guru gives consciousness or "chaitanya'' to the mantra.
This consciousness can be viewed as the cit-shakti-kundalini.
Through repetition of the mantra the cit-shakti-kundalini of the mantra resonates with the cit-shakti-kundalini of the student and in this way the student's kundalini is awakened.
The reader may have noticed that there doesn't seem to be a great deal of effort applied in this approach.
This is true and in many ways this approach is more akin to Siddha Mahayoga in which the guru can use sound or "shabda'' as the instrument of initiation.

Ok. With all that said, Lets Get Down To Business... You now know enough to Proceed to the "Advanced Exercise-Levitation Of The Physical Body" (located at the bottom of the Levitation file). If you haven't already read the rest of the levitation posts, I recomend you do so first, then come back to this topic to refresh your memory, and then proceed to the exercise listed above.

Raising Your Vibration

2009-07-16T16:46:00.001-04:00

How to work with Divine Energy to Raise Your Personal Vibration Rate
by St.Germain

Everything is made of Divine Energy. Even scientist will all agree that everything in creation, when broken down to its smallest component, exists as pure energy. The faster the energy vibrates within an object the less dense that object is physically. Everything on the Earth vibrates within a certain range of frequency and the human senses can easily perceive in some way most things on the Earth within that range.

One of the reasons why people cannot perceive higher dimensions is because they are vibrating at a frequency rate that is outside of the range of most human capabilities of perception. Think of a dog whistle; even though you can't hear it, you know the sound is real because you can watch your dog react to it.

It is the same way with people perceiving Higher Dimensional Beings and the Higher Dimensions. For most of the people on the Earth right now it is beyond their range of perception. But some people have raised their own vibration rate to be closer to that of their Family of Light and the Higher Dimensions that people have incarnated to the Earth from.

Your Higher Self also exists at this higher rate of vibration and the closer you are in vibration to your Higher Self the easier it is to be merged back with them on a physical and conscious level. Raising your frequency level also enables you to more easily work with your Divine Guidance, The Christ, Archangels and Ascended Masters.

You can raise your personal vibration by doing specific energy work with your Higher Self and Guides of Light. This frequency raising energy work can be done by everyone, and is being done in many ways naturally on an ongoing basis as the vibration of the Earth is being raised in preparation for the Ascension.

If you would like to speed your personal vibration rate of ascent you can make that a goal to accomplish with your Higher Self and Guides of Light. Set aside time specifically to work on this with them. It helps if you have clear goals and consciously know that this is the work that is being done with you.

To do this work sit or lay in a comfortable position. Invite in your Higher Self and Guides of Light. Ask them to help you raise your vibration rate at a speed that is most appropriate for you. They know you well and will do what work is most needed in each session.

You can start out by connecting with them through your chakras. Picture a bright White Light above you and emanating down through your crown chakra. Know that this is the Divineenergy that your Higher Self and Guides will be using to work with you. See the White Light slowly shining down through all of your chakras and then spreading throughout your entire body and surrounding you as it fills your aura.

At this point you should be well connected with your Higher Self and Guides of Light. Try to stay in a meditative state of mind and relax and let them work with you. If you are sensitive to the energy you may feel it strongly in different parts of your body as the work is progressing. Do not worry if the energy becomes intense form time to time. Your Higher Self and Guides have complete control over it and it cannot hurt you in any way. They will always use the appropriate amount of Divine Energy to help you accomplish your goals.

You do not have to be consciously aware or understand each and every step of the work that your Higher Self and Guides of Light are doing with you in each session. All you have to do is hold the intention of doing the work and trust that from your Higher Self, your true full Self you will accomplish all of the work required for you to meet your personal goals of Ascension.

If you are just starting out and are unable to perceive the energy physically yet trust that by your intention you are doing all of the work required for you to progress as your Higher Self knows is perfect for you. After you are doing this energy work for a while you will begin to feel the energy as perhaps a tingle, a warmth, or a gentle current running through you. It is very individual how each person perceives the energy and to what degree they are sensitive to it. Be patient with yourself and give yourself time to progress in your energy work. It is a step by step process for everyone and everyone will go at a pace that is perfect for them.

We encourage you to take some time each day to connect with your Higher Self and Guidance to do this work. Even if the only time that you have is right before you go to sleep at night. This work can continue during your sleep, and in fact it is not uncommon to fall asleep at any time of day while doing the energy work, and that can even be quite helpful and facilitating to the work at times.

You may also call upon Sananda, the Archangels, and Ascended Masters to assist you in your vibrational raising work. They can help you to reach your goals as fast as you would like to. Doing this type of work with them will also help you to establish good energetic and conscious connections with them so that they can better help to support you in all of your spiritual work and life.

The Shaumbra Symptoms

2009-07-16T16:40:00.000-04:00

12 Signs of Your Awakening Divinity

1. Body aches and pains, especially in the neck, shoulder and back. This is the result of intense changes at your DNA level as the "Christ seed" awakens within. This too shall pass.

2. Feeling of deep inner sadness for no apparent reason. You are releasing your past (this lifetime and others) and this causes the feeling of sadness. This is similar to the experience of moving from a house where you lived in for many, many years into a new house. As much as you want to move into the new house, there is a sadness of leaving behind the memories, energy and experiences of the old house. This too shall pass.

3. Crying for no apparent reason. Similar to #2 above. It's good and healthy to let the tears flow. It helps to release the old energy within. This too shall pass.

4. Sudden change in job or career. A very common symptom. As you change, things around you will change as well. Don't worry about finding the "perfect" job or career right now. This too shall pass. You're in transition and you may make several job changes before you settle into one that fits your passion.

5. Withdrawal from family relationships. You are connected to your biological family via old karma. When you get off the karmic cycle, the bonds of the old relationships are released. It will appear as though you are drifting away from your family and friends. This too shall pass. After a period of time, you may develop a new relationship with them if it is appropriate. However, the relationship will be based in the new energy without the karmic attachments.

6. Unusual sleep patterns. It's likely that you'll awaken many nights between 2:00 and 4:00 AM. There's a lot of work going on within you, and it often causes you to wake up for a "breather." Not to worry. If you can't go back to sleep, get up and do something rather than lay in bed and worry about humanly things. This too shall pass.

7. Intense dreams. These might include war and battle dreams, chase dreams or monster dreams. You are literally releasing the old energy within, and these energies of the past are often symbolized as wars, running to escape and boogiemen. This too shall pass.

8. Physical disorientation. At times you'll feel very ungrounded. You'll be "spatially challenged" with the feeling like you can't put two feet on the ground, or that you're walking between two worlds. As your consciousness transitions into the new energy, you body sometimes lags behind. Spend more time in nature to help ground the new energy within. This too shall pass.

9. Increased "self talk." You'll find yourself talking to your Self more often. You'll suddenly realize you've been chattering away with yourself for the past 30 minutes. There is a new level of communication taking place within your being, and you're experiencing the tip of the iceberg with the self talk. The conversations will increase, and they will become more fluid, more coherent and more insightful. You're not going crazy, you're just Shaumbra moving into the new energy.

10. Feelings of loneliness, even when in the company of others. You may feel alone and removed from others. You may feel the desire to "flee" groups and crowds. As Shaumbra, you are walking a sacred and lonely path. As much as the feelings of loneliness cause you anxiety, it is difficult to relate to others at this time. The feelings of loneliness are also associated with the fact that your Guides have departed. They have been with you on all of your journeys in all of your lifetimes. It was time for them to back away so you could fill your space with your own divinity. This too shall pass. The void within will be filled with the love and energy of your own Christ consciousness.

11. Loss of passion. You may feel totally disimpassioned, with little or no desire to do anything. That's OK, and it's just part of the process. Take this time to "do no-thing." Don't fight yourself on this, because this too shall pass. It's similar to rebooting a computer. You need to shut down for a brief period of time in order to load the sophisticated new software, or in this case, the new Christ-seed energy.

12. A deep longing to go Home. This is perhaps the most difficult and challenging of any of the conditions. You may experience a deep and overwhelming desire to leave the planet and return to Home. This is not a "suicidal" feeling. It is not based in anger or frustration. You don't want to make a big deal of it or cause drama for yourself or other. There is a quiet part of you that wants to go Home. The root cause for this is quite simple. You have completed your karmic cycles. You have completed your contract for this lifetime. You are ready to begin a new lifetime while still in this physical body. During this transition process, you have an inner remembrance of what it is like to be on the other side. Are you ready to enlist for another tour of duty here on Earth? Are you ready to take on the challenges of moving into the New Energy? Yes, indeed you could go Home right now. But you've come this far, and after many, many lifetimes it would be a shame to leave before the end of the movie. Besides, Spirit needs you here to help others transition into the new energy. They will need a human guide, just like you, who has taken the journey from the old energy into the new. The path you're walking right now provides the experiences to enable you to become a Teacher of the New Divine Human. As lonely and dark as your journey can be at times, remember that you are never alone.

We would love to hear your experiences...

Symptoms Of Spiritual Awakening

2009-07-16T16:37:00.002-04:00

copyright Ellen L. Montgomery, 2001 -reprinted with permission

INTRODUCTION:
For the past several years, many of my friends, students, and clients have described experiencing a multitude of changes, strange feelings and physical sensations. I myself have been passing through an unusual period of my life that in many ways matches that of my friends. At first, I labeled what was happening to me as a mid-life crisis and/or menopause, but then I began to observe similar conditions among men and all age groups. At that point, I began to compare notes with others, and do some research into this subject.

What follows is a compilation of my findings. Many of these may seem bizarre to some readers, but I can assure you that these conditions exist among healthy, mentally and emotionally sound adults from around the world. One note of caution: I am not recommending that anyone ignore major physical or emotional conditions requiring professional attention, so please do not overlook any serious medical condition. I only hope that this list is in some way helpful to those of you who are confused and worried about some of these symptoms.

The advice given for many of the symptoms is also gathered from various sources (books on traditional spiritual practices as well as channeled information) and may not reflect my own personal experience. As with anything, use discernment: if it's useful, fine; if not, ignore it. One excellent book to read is What Is Lightbody? by Archangel Ariel, channeled by Tashira Tachi-ren. Another helpful resource is Jack Kornfield's A Path with Heart.

We all experience our spiritual development in our own unique way. For some of us, the changes occur slowly; for others, a series of events can trigger sudden growth. We do not all share the same symptoms or changes, and certainly we hold our individual spiritual beliefs. We are as different as snowflakes, yet we share a common essence and general shape. Some of this information may resonate with you. Other concepts may not be comfortable for you. Each of us must examine new information and discern for ourselves what is truth and what does not serve us. So I ask you to do this for yourself as you read this list. You are responsible for your own interpretation.

1. CHANGING SLEEP PATTERNS: This may manifest as restlessness, hot feet, waking up two or three times a night, or feeling tired after you wake up and sleepy off and on during the day. There is something called the Triad Sleep Pattern that occurs for many: you sleep for about two to three hours, wake up, go back to sleep for another couple of hours, wake again, and go back to sleep again. For others, the sleep requirements have changed. You can get by on less sleep. Lately, I have been experiencing huge waves of energy running into my body from the crown. It feels good, but it keeps me awake for a long time, and then subsides.

ADVICE: Get used to it. Make peace with it and don't worry about getting enough sleep (which often causes more insomnia). You will be able to make it through the day if you hold thoughts of getting just what you need. You can also request your Higher Power to give you a break now and then and give you a good, deep night's sleep. If you can't go back to sleep right away, use the waking moments to meditate, read poetry, write in your journal or look at the moon. Your body will adjust to the new pattern.

2. ACTIVITY AT THE CROWN OF THE HEAD: This may be felt as tingling or itching, or prickly, crawling sensations along the scalp and/or down the spine. It may be a sense of energy vibrating on top of the head, as if energy is erupting from the head in a shower. Also there may be a sensation of energy pouring in through the crown, described as "sprinkles." This may also be experienced as pressure on the crown, as if someone is pushing his/her finger into the center of your head. I have been experiencing huge downloads of energy through the crown. In the past, I have felt more generalized pressure, as if my head is in a gentle vise. One man related that his hair stood on end and his body was covered with goose bumps.

ADVICE: This is nothing to be alarmed about. What you are experiencing is an opening of the crown chakra. The sensations mean that you are opening up to receive divine energy.

3. SUDDEN WAVES OF EMOTION: You may cry at the drop of a hat, or feel suddenly angry or sad with little provocation. Or you may be inexplicably depressed, then very happy. You're on an emotional roller coaster. There is often a pressure or sense of emotions congested in the heart chakra (the middle of the chest). This is not to be confused with the heart, which is located to the left of the heart chakra.

ADVICE: Accept your feelings as they come up and let them go. Go directly to your heart chakra and feel the emotion. Expand it outward to your all your fields and breathe deeply from the belly all the way up to your upper chest. Just feel the feeling and let it evaporate on its own. Don't direct the emotions at anyone. You are cleaning out your past. If you want some help with this, say out loud that you intend to release all these old issues and ask your Higher Power to help you. You can also ask Grace Elohim to help you release with ease and gentleness. Be grateful that your body is releasing these emotions and not holding onto them inside where they can do harm. One source suggests that depression is linked to letting go of relationships to people, work, etc. that no longer match our new frequencies. When we feel guilty about letting go of these relationships, depression helps us medicate that pain.

4. OLD "STUFF" COMES UP, AND THE PEOPLE WITH WHOM YOU NEED TO WORK IT OUT APPEAR IN YOUR LIFE. These are completion issues, or perhaps you need to work through issues of self-worth, abundance, creativity, addictions, etc. The resources or people you need to help you move through these issues start to appear.

ADVICE: The best advice is the same as for number three. Additionally, don't get too involved in analyzing these issues. Examining them too much will simply cycle you back through them over and over again at deeper and deeper levels. Get professional help if you need to and walk through it. Do not try to avoid them or disassociate yourself from them. Embrace whatever comes up and thank it for helping you move ahead. Thank your Higher Power for giving you the opportunity to release these issues. Remember, you don't want these issues to stay stuck in your body.

5. CHANGES IN WEIGHT: The weight gain in the U.S. population is phenomenal. Other people may be losing weight. We often gain weight because many fears we have suppressed are now coming up to the surface to be healed. We react by building up a defense. We also attempt to ground ourselves or provide bulk against increasing frequencies in our bodies.

ADVICE: Don't freak out. Just accept it as a symptom of where you are right now. You will release/gain the weight when all your fears have been integrated. Release your anxiety about this, and you might find it easier to lose/gain the weight eventually. Exercise.
Before eating, try the following. Sit at the table with an attractive place setting. Light a candle. Enjoy how the food looks. Place your dominant hand over your heart and bless the food. Tell your body that you are going to use the food to richly nourish it, but that you are not going to use the food to fulfill your emotional hungers. Then pass your hand from left to right over the food and bless it. You may notice that the food feels warm to your hand even if the food is cold. I like to think that the food is good for me when it feels warm and nourishing to my hand. I have also noticed that when I practice blessing the food, I don't eat as much. It is important not to let yourself off the hook when you forget to bless the food before you eat. If I've forgotten and I've nearly finished eating, I bless the food anyway. That way I don't slip out of the habit. Another thing you can do is to stay present while eating. Don't watch TV or read. Heartily enjoy what blessings are before you.

6. CHANGES IN EATING HABITS: You may have strange cravings and odd food choices. Some find they are not as hungry as they used to be, or that they are hungrier.

ADVICE: Don't deny what your body tells you it needs. If you are not sure, you might try muscle testing before you choose a food to see if it's what your body wants. Also try blessing the food as described in number five.

7. DEVELOPMENT OF FOOD INTOLERANCES OR ALLERGIES YOU NEVER HAD BEFORE: As you grow more spiritual, you are more sensitive to everything around you. Your body will tell you what it can no longer tolerate, as if it, too, is sloughing off what doesn't serve it anymore. You might be cleansing yourself of toxins. Some people find they often have a white residue in their mouth, much like that of runners at the end of a race.

ADVICE: An acupuncturist told me that this film can be removed by sloshing 2 tablespoons of cold-pressed olive oil in your mouth for 10-15 minutes (don't swallow, whatever you do), then spitting it out into the toilet - not the sink. You just removed toxins from your body, and don't want them in the sink. Brush your teeth and do the same. Then clean your brush. (Sorry this is yucky, but it works.)

8. AMPLIFICATION OF THE SENSES/INCREASED SENSITIVITY:

VISION - You may experience sore eyes, blurry vision, see shimmering objects, glittery particles or auras around people, plants, animals and objects. Some report seeing formerly opaque objects as transparent. When you close your eyes, you no longer see darkness, but redness. You may also see geometric shapes or brilliant colors and pictures when your eyes are closed. Colors appear more vivid; the sky might look teal or the grass an amazing green. Often I see grids running across the ground. As you become more sensitive, you may see shapes or outlines in the air, especially when the room is almost dark. Once while I was looking at the ceiling light, its form began to disappear and almost recede into the ceiling. When your eyes are open or closed, you may see white or gold shapes in your peripheral vision (these are your guides). Lately my eyes have felt excessively dry upon awakening; I have had difficulty opening them now and then. Also I have
experienced sore eyes. (It gives "a sight for sore eyes" new meaning.)

ADVICE: Your vision is changing in many ways; you are experiencing new ways of seeing. Be patient. Whatever you do, do not be afraid. Hazy vision may be relieved by yawning. Drink lots of water for dryness.

HEARING - You may experience increased or decreased hearing. I once thought I would have to pull off the road because of the painfully amplified sound of my tires on the freeway. Other symptoms are hearing white noise in the head, beeps, tones, music or electronic patterns. Some hear water rushing, bees buzzing, whooshing, roaring or ringing. Others have what is called audio dyslexia; you can't always make out what people are saying, as if you can no longer translate your own language. Some hear strange voices in their dreams, as if someone is hovering near them. You can either ask the presence(s) to leave or ask Archangel Michael to take care of the situation. Again, there is nothing to fear.

ADVICE: Surrender to it. Let it come through. Listen. Your ears are adjusting to new frequencies. This summer I felt the presence of two souls who were confused or lost. They hovered around me and called my name. At first I was frightened, then I realized who they were (my own dear departed ones, both of whom died suddenly by strokes). Believe it or not, in each case, all I had to do was tell them that I loved them and would help them change their circumstances and find a beautiful place to go. Then I guided them to the bright light, reassuring them that I would stay with them until they reached the light. (When they finally see the light, they can't wait to get there!) More about this in number 29.

SMELL, TOUCH AND/OR TASTE - I notice I can now smell and taste chemical additives in some foods in a rather unpleasant manner. Other food may taste absolutely wonderful. For some people, these enhancements are both delightful and distracting. You might even smell the fragrance of flowers now and then. Many of the mystics did. Enjoy it.

9. SKIN ERUPTIONS: These may be rashes, bumps, acne, hives, warts or shingles. Anger produces outbreaks around the mouth and chin. I had dermatitis on my extremities for several months that accompanied healing an episode from my past. When I had worked through most of the issue, the condition was released.

ADVICE: You may be sloughing off toxins and bringing emotions to the surface. When there is an issue to be released and you are trying to repress it, your skin will express the issue for you until you process the emotions. Work through your "stuff." Try essential oils of geranium, rose, lemon or bergamot on shingles lesions.

10. MANIC ENERGY: You may experience episodes of intense energy that make you want to leap out of bed and into action. One person said her body seems to vibrate wildly. This may be followed by periods of lethargy and fatigue. The fatigue usually follows great shifts. This is a time of integration, so give in to it.

ADVICE: Roll with the nature of the energy. Don't fight it. Don't make it the "wrong" way to feel. Be gentle with yourself. Take naps if you are tired. Write your novel if you are too energized to sleep. Take advantage of the type of energy manifesting.

11. CHANGES IN PRAYER OR MEDITATION: You may not feel the same sensations as before, or may not have the same experience of being in contact with Spirit. You may have difficulty focusing. When I close my eyes to meditate, I have noticed a strange, spacey sensation that makes me feel lighter, less dense, and swirling with energy.

ADVICE: You may be in more instant and constant communion with Spirit now, and the sensation may therefore be altered. You will adapt to this new feeling. You are actually thinking and acting in partnership with Spirit most of the time now. You may find your meditation periods grow shorter.

12. POWER SURGES: All of a sudden, you are heated from head to toe. It is a momentary sensation, but uncomfortable. In contrast, some people have felt inexplicably cold. I have experienced both. Even men have reported "heating up." More recently, I experienced waves or currents of energy rolling through me. Sometimes the energy seems so intense when it first comes into my body that I feel a little nauseated, but if I think of the energy as divine and let go of fear, I feel wonderful and enjoy the sensation. If you are an energy worker, you may have noticed that the heat running through your hands has increased tremendously. This is good.

ADVICE: If you are uncomfortable, ask your Higher Power to turn down/up the temperature a bit, if this is for your highest good.

13. VARIOUS PHYSICAL MANIFESTATIONS: You may have intense energy in the hands and/or feet, headaches, backaches, neck pains, flu-like symptoms (this is called vibrational flu), digestive problems, muscular spasms or cramps, racing heartbeat, chest pains and infections, increased mucous, changes in sexual desire, numbness or pain in the limbs, and involuntary vocalizations or bodily movements. Some of us have even had old conditions from childhood reappear briefly for healing.

ADVICE: Remember what I said about seeking medical help if you need it! If you have determined that this is not a medical condition, relax in the realization that it is only temporary.

14. LOOKING YOUNGER: Yippee! As you clear emotional issues and release limiting beliefs and heavy baggage from the past, you are actually lighter. Your frequency is higher. You love yourself and life more. You begin to resemble the perfect you that you really are. Some of my friends report that their hair is growing darker (as opposed to gray) or blonder. I notice my face changes from moment to moment.

15. VIVID DREAMS: Sometimes the dreams are so real that you wake up confused. You may even have lucid dreams in which you are in control. Many dreams may be mystical or carry messages for you. And in some dreams, you just know that you are not "dreaming," that what is happening is somehow real.

ADVICE: You will remember what is important for you to remember. Don't force anything. Above all, stay out of fear.

16. LIFE-CHANGING EVENTS: These may be death, divorce, changes in job status, loss of home, illness, and/or other catastrophes -- sometimes several at once! These are forces that cause you to slow down, simplify, change, re-examine who you are and what your life means to you. They're forces that you cannot ignore, forces that cause you release your attachments, forces that awaken your sense of love and compassion for all.

17. A DESIRE TO BREAK FREE FROM RESTRICTIVE PATTERNS, LIFE-DRAINING JOBS, CONSUMPTIVE LIFESTYLES, AND TOXIC PEOPLE OR SITUATIONS: You feel a compelling need to "find yourself" and your life purpose - now! You want to be creative and free to be who you really are. You might find yourself drawn to the arts and nature. You want to disentangle yourself from things and people that no longer serve you.

ADVICE: Do it! Don't be afraid. Your soul is calling to you to do this.

18. EMOTIONAL AND MENTAL CONFUSION: A feeling that you need to get your life straightened out, that it feels like a mess, but at the same time, you feel scattered and unable to focus. See number 45.

ADVICE: Put your ear to your heart and your own discernment will follow.

19. INTROSPECTION, NEED FOR SOLITUDE, LOSS OF INTEREST IN EXTRAVERTED ACTIVITIES: This stage has come as a surprise to many extraverts who formerly saw themselves as outgoing and involved. They say, "I don't know why, but I don't like to go out as much as before."

20. CREATIVITY BURSTS: Receiving images, ideas, music, and other creative inspirations at an overwhelming rate.

ADVICE: At least record these inspirations, for Spirit is speaking to you about how you might fulfill your purpose and contribute to the healing of the planet. Recently, I have scheduled days on my calendar just for my creative work. Making a space for something to happen increases the creative flow. Put creativity first in your life!

21. A PERCEPTION THAT TIME IS ACCELERATING: It seems that way because you have had so many changes introduced into your life at an unprecedented rate. The number of changes seems to be growing. Sometimes time is collapsing, so you feel like there are big time gaps in your day. Our perception of time-space is being altered.

ADVICE: Breaking your day up into appointments and time segments increases the sense of acceleration. You can slow time down by relaxing into the present moment and paying attention to what's at hand, not anticipating what's ahead. Slow down and tell yourself that you have plenty of time. Ask your Higher Power to help you. Keep your focus on the present. Try to flow from one activity to the next. Stay tuned to your inner guidance. You can also warp time by asking for it. Next time you feel rushed, say, "Time warp, please. I need some more time to -----." Then relax.

22. A FEELING THAT SOMETHING IS IMPENDING: There is a feeling that something is about to happen. This can create anxiety.

ADVICE: There is nothing to worry about. Things are definitely happening, but anxiety only creates more problems for you. All your thoughts, positive or negative, are prayers. There is nothing to fear.

23. IMPATIENCE: You know better, but sometimes you can't help it. You want to get on with what seems to be coming your way. Uncertainty is not comfortable.

ADVICE: Learn to live with the uncertainty, knowing that nothing comes to you until you are ready. Impatience is really a lack of trust, especially trust in your Higher Power. When you focus on the present, you will experience miracles -- yes, even in traffic.

24. A DEEP YEARNING FOR MEANING, PURPOSE, SPIRITUAL CONNECTION AND REVELATION: You perhaps have an interest in the spiritual for the first time in your life. It's becoming a "constant craving," as k.d. lang says. The material world cannot fulfill this longing.

ADVICE: Follow your heart and the way will open up for you.

25. A FEELING THAT YOU ARE SOMEHOW DIFFERENT: You have a disquieting sense that everything in your life feels new and altered, that you have left your old self behind. You have. You are much greater than you can possibly imagine. There is more to come.

26. TEACHERS APPEAR EVERYWHERE WITH PERFECT TIMING TO HELP YOU ON YOUR SPIRITUAL JOURNEY: These may be people, books, movies, events, Mother Nature, etc. Teachers may appear to be negative or positive when you are trapped in polarity thinking, but, from a transcendent perspective, they are always perfect. You are given just what you need to learn from and move on. By the way, we never get more than we are ready to master. Each challenge presents us with an opportunity to show our mastery in passing through it.

27. YOU FIND A SPIRITUAL TRACK THAT MAKES SENSE TO YOU AND "SPEAKS TO YOU" AT THE MOST PROFOUND LEVEL: Suddenly you are gaining a perspective that you would never have considered before. You hunger to know more. You read, share with others, ask questions, and go inside to discover more about who you are and why you are here.

28. YOU ARE MOVING THROUGH LEARNING AND PERSONAL ISSUES AT A RAPID PACE: You sense that you are "getting it" quite readily.

ADVICE: Keep remembering that things will come to you when they are ready to be healed. Not sooner. Deal with whatever comes up with courage and you will move through the issues rapidly.

29. INVISIBLE PRESENCES: Here is the "woo-woo" stuff. Some people report feeling surrounded by beings at night or having the sensation of being touched or talked to. Often they will wake with a start. Some also feel their body or bed vibrate. The vibrations are caused by energetic changes after emotional clearing has taken place.

ADVICE: This is a sensitive topic, but you may feel better blessing your bed and space around it before you sleep. I rest assured that I am surrounded only by the most magnificent spiritual entities and am always safe in God's care. Sometimes, however, the fear gets to me, and I call in Archangel Michael and/or Archangel Uriel. I don't beat myself up for being afraid sometimes. I forgive myself for not always feeling sovereign at 3:00 a.m.

30. PORTENTS, VISIONS, ILLUSIONS, NUMBERS AND SYMBOLS: You begin seeing things that have spiritual importance for you, noticing how numbers appear synchronistically in your awareness. Everything has a message if you take the time to look. I enjoy the experience of "getting the messages." What fun!

31. INCREASED INTEGRITY: You realize that it is time for you to seek and speak your truth. It suddenly seems important for you to become more authentic, more yourself. You may have to say "no" to people whom you have tried to please in the past. You may find it intolerable to stay in a marriage or job or place that doesn't support who you are. You may also find there is nowhere to hide, no secrets to keep anymore. Honesty becomes important in all your relationships.

ADVICE: Listen to your heart. If your guidance tells you not to do something, speak up and take action. Say "no." Likewise, you must also say "yes" to that which compels you. You must risk displeasing others without guilt in order to attain spiritual sovereignty.

32. HARMONY WITH SEASONS AND CYCLES: You are becoming more tuned to the seasons, the phases of the moon and natural cycles. You have more awareness of your place in the natural world, a stronger connection to the earth.

33. ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL MALFUNCTIONS: When you are around, light bulbs flicker, the computer locks up, or the radio goes haywire.

ADVICE: Call on your angels, guides, or Grace Elohim to fix it or put up a field of protection of light around the machine. Surround your car with blue light. Laugh.

34. INCREASED SYNCHRONICITY AND MANY SMALL
MIRACLES: Look for more of these.

ADVICE: Synchronistic events tell you if you are heading in the right direction or making the correct choices. Honor these clues and you cannot go astray. Spirit uses synchronicity to communicate to you. That's when you begin to experience daily miracles. See number 30.

35. INCREASED INTUITIVE ABILITY AND ALTERED STATES OF CONSCIOUSNESS: This may mean thinking of someone and immediately hearing from them, or other synchronicities. You may have sudden insights about patterns or events from the past. You may experience clairvoyance, out-of-body experiences, and other psychic phenomena, or general intensified sensitivity and knowing. You may have greater awareness of your own essence and that of others, or begin channeling angelic and Christ-consciousness energies.

36. COMMUNICATION WITH SPIRIT: This may be contact with angels, spirit guides, and other divine entities. Channeling. More and more people seem to be given this opportunity of feeling inspiration and downloading information that takes form as writing, painting, ideas, communications, dance, etc.

37. A SENSE OF ONENESS WITH ALL: You have a direct experience of this Wholeness. It's a transcendent awareness. You may be flooded with compassion and love for all life. Compassionate detachment or unconditional love for all is what lifts us up to higher levels of consciousness and joy.

38. MOMENTS OF JOY AND BLISS: You have a deep, abiding sense of peace and knowing that you are never alone.

39. INTEGRATION: You become emotionally, psychologically, physically, and spiritually stronger and clearer. You feel as if you are in alignment with your Higher Self.

40. LIVING YOUR PURPOSE: You know you are finally doing what you came to earth for. New skills and gifts are emerging, especially healing ones. Your life/work experiences are now converging and starting to make sense. You are finally going to use them all.

ADVICE: Listen to your heart. Your passion leads you to where you must go. Go within and ask your Higher Power, "What is it you would have me do?" Watch for synchronicities. Listen.

41. FEELING CLOSER TO ANIMALS, ROCKS AND PLANTS: To some people, animals now seem to be more "human" in their behavior. Wild animals are less afraid. Plants respond to your love and attention more than ever. Some may even have messages for you. Stones and rocks emit energies that you can feel. Many seem to have healing or clearing properties.

42. SEEING BEINGS OF OTHER DIMENSIONS: The veil between dimensions is thinner, so this is not surprising.

ADVICE: Just stay in your sovereignty. You are more powerful than you can ever imagine, so do not entertain fear. Ask your guides for help if you slip into fear. Lately, I have been experiencing the presence of dear ones who have transitioned, and due to the nature of their deaths, were confused as to where they were. I helped them realize they had passed away and assisted them in going towards the Light. It is very simple to do; just tell them you will stay with them until they find it. Once they see the Light and start moving towards it, they can't wait to get there. Because I use a pendulum to talk to them, I can tell when they reach the Light, because the pendulum comes to a dead stop.

43. SEEING A PERSON'S TRUE FORM: This may mean seeing loved ones with a different face, or a face from a past life or parallel life.
44. PHYSICALLY MANIFESTING THOUGHTS AND DESIRES MORE QUICKLY AND EFFICIENTLY

ADVICE: Monitor your thoughts. All thoughts are prayers. Be careful what you ask for.

45. LEFT BRAIN FOGGINESS: Your psychic abilities, your intuitive knowing, your compassion, your ability to experience your body, your visioning, your expressiveness, all emanate from the right brain. In order for this side of the brain to develop more fully, the left brain must shut down a little bit. Normally the left hemisphere's capacities for order, organization, structure, linear sequencing, analysis, evaluation, precision, focus, problem-solving and mathematics dominate our often less-valued right brain. What results are memory lapses; placing words in the wrong sequence; inability or no desire to read for very long; inability to focus; forgetting what you are just about to say; impatience with linear forms of communication (audio or written formats); a feeling of spaciness, being scattered; losing interest in research or complex information; feeling bombarded with words and talk and information; and a reluctance to write. Sometimes, you feel dull and have no interest in analysis, lively intellectual discussion or investigation. On the other hand, you might find yourself drawn to the sensate: videos, magazines with photos, beautiful artwork, movies, music, sculpting, painting, being with people, dancing, gardening, walking, and other kinesthetic forms of expression. You may search for spiritual content, even science fiction.

ADVICE: You may discover that if you allow your heart and your right brain to lead you, the left will then be activated appropriately to support you. And someday we will be well-balanced, using both hemispheres with mastery.

46. DIZZINESS: This occurs when you are ungrounded. Perhaps you have just cleared a big emotional issue, and your body is adjusting to your "lighter" state.

ADVICE: Ground yourself by eating protein. Sometimes "comfort food" feels right. Don't make any food right or wrong for you. Use your guidance to know what you need at any given moment. Take your shoes off and put your feet in the grass for a couple of minutes.

47. FALLING, HAVING ACCIDENTS, BREAKING BONES: Your body is not grounded or perhaps your life is out of balance. Or your body may be telling you to slow down, examine certain aspects of your life, or heal certain issues. There is always a message. I recently broke my ankle, and I understand that my ankle was taking on what I myself refused to deal with. And that was all of the above.

ADVICE: Stay grounded by taking your shoes off and putting your feet in the grass; even better, lie down on the grass without a blanket under you. Feel the earth beneath you. Get out in nature. Slow down and pay attention. Be mindful about what you are doing. Feel your feelings when they come up. Stay in the present. Surround yourself with blue light when you are feeling shaky.

48. HEART PALPITATIONS: A racing heart usually accompanies a heart opening. It only lasts for a few moments and means that the heart is re-balancing itself after an emotional release. I had one episode that terrified me: I woke up in the middle of the night, my heart pounding. I thought it was going to come right out of my chest. It only happened once and was, I understand, a huge heart-chakra opening. But I did check it out. There is nothing wrong with my heart.

ADVICE: Remember what I said about getting medical attention when needed. Consult your doctor about any conditions you are not comfortable with.

49. FASTER HAIR AND NAIL GROWTH: More protein is being
used in the body. Too bad we can't tell the body where to grow the hair and where not to grow it. (Or can we? Hmmm.)

50. A DESIRE TO FIND YOUR SOUL MATE OR TWIN FLAME: More than ever before, the idea of a relationship that matches who we are seems more possible and desirable.

ADVICE: The truth is, we have to be the kind of person we want to attract. We have to love ourselves and where we are right now before we can attract a more "perfect" mate. The work begins at home. Here is how I think it works: hold the desire for this person in your heart, but without attachment. Expect that someday you will meet someone who is more suited to you, but let go of any expectations as to who this will be and how it will happen. Focus instead on cleaning up your own life and being the kind of person you want to be. Be happy now. Enjoy your life. Then you may see.....

51. MEMORIES SURFACE: These may be body memories, suppressed memories, images of past lives and/or parallel lives. We are healing and integrating all our "selves," so expect to have some of these experiences.
ADVICE: Keep in mind that it is best to recall only what comes to mind, leave the rest alone, don't analyze everything to death (because you will be stuck in the tape loop of infinite issues to process), and feel your feelings as they come up. Ask for help from your guides.

52. OTHER CHAKRA OPENINGS:
Third-eye or brow chakra - Muscles or nerves in the forehead twitch, as if the third eye is trying to open up. There may be tingling feelings, or feelings like energy is shooting out from the third eye like a ray.

Thymus chakra - I get a sharp pain in my thymus, about an inch or so below the V of my collarbone. It is related to the heart's opening and to the processing of new energies coming into the body. Thumping my finger lightly on the spot often helps.

Hand chakras - This may manifest as increased vibrations, heat, or energy surges in the center of the palms.

Note By Archangel: I found this online, and it was something that was no coincidence, personally, all of the above have been happening to me all of my life for as long as I can remember, and although I have never really questioned any of whats been happening to me, I guess, I just kind of knew, but there are many who don't know, so for those of you who are questioning your sanity, I have posted this file. For any of you who thought you were going crazy, I hope it helps to know that you're, not, what you are doing is Becoming Divine:) Please feel free to Share your own experiences as replies to this post. But before you do, see THIS ARTICLE!
-Blessed be From your resident Archangel:)

TYPICAL KUNDALINI SYMPTOMS

* Perhaps a feeling of air bubbles or snake movement up through the body.

* Pains in varying locations throughout the body.

* Titillation of the genital area, spine, or head.

* Tension or stiffness of neck, and headaches.

* Feeling of overpressure within the head.

* Vibrations, unease, or cramps in legs and other parts of the body.

Parapsychological abilities. Light phenomena in or outside the body.

* Problems with finding balance between strong sexual urges, and a wish to live in sublime purity.

* Persistent anxiety or anxiety attacks, due to lack of understanding of what is going on.

* Insomnia, manic high spirits or deep depression. Energy loss.

* Impaired concentration and memory.

* Total isolation due to inability to communicate inner experiences out.

* Experiences of possession and poltergeist phenomena.

If you bring forth what is inside you, what is inside you will save you.
If you do not bring forth what is inside you, it may well destroy you.
Kundalini is the energy of our natural physical beingness - the life energy of each cell of the Physical Body.

Kundalini is the latent potential of the Feminine Principle of Creation - the Life-Force and life consciousness of every cell of all physical life.

We are all born with Kundalini already awakened .. we would be very dead if it wasn't.

The experiences some call Kundalini are symptoms - of your remembering and the whole of your being awakening to the truth of you - as your life force synergy, your inner Holy Spirit, the Divine Fire moves through the body clearing the holding patterns of the memories, beliefs and conditioning of the past

Imagine a taut and twisted elastic band .. unraveling when it is let go

Kundalini rising is not a crisis
Kundalini is the body's way of re-awakening to the truth of itself. Its like a dam bursting .. a dam that has been holding back the inherent power of the truth of the physical body ..

It can often be quite scary as the dam bursts. All of our beliefs, limiting decisions and behavioral patterns from the past are brought to consciousness along with all of the self judgments we have ever made .. and judgments from others that we have taken on.

Rune Spreads

2009-06-11T03:17:00.000-04:00

-Original Author Unknown

The Field
The field on which you cast the Runes represents the world in which you live. To the Right represents the past. To the Left, the future. When reading horizontally (right-to-left), the central area represents the present. On the vertical axis, closest to you (Near) represents the issue. Furthest from you (Far) represents the outcome. The central area when read in this direction represents your need, your actions and the challenges which may effect them. Take the Runes from the box and place them unseen in the bag. Swirl the runes around in the bag gently with your writing hand, and let a Rune fall naturally into your fingers. Feel it and sense whether it is the right one to draw. Draw the runes one at a time and place them on the field. Never turn the runes - place them exactly as they come to hand on the field. Whether they are upright or reversed (i.e. upside down or right way up), and whether they appear converse or obverse (i.e. face down or face up) may make a difference to the meaning. When placing the Runes on the field always work from Right to Left, then from Near to Far. If placing a three Rune cast you would lay Right, Centre, then Left. If placing a five Rune cast you would lay Right, Centre, Left, Near, Far. And if placing a six Rune cast you would lay Right, Near Centre, Left, Near, Far Centre, Far.

Odin's Rune
For an overview of an entire situation, state the issue aloud and draw a single Rune. The Rune drawn will encompass the entire matter from past to future, actions and outcome. This is particularly useful with a very critical matter for which you seek instant guidance.As to the matter of how to remove the obstacle for a satisfactory outcome - a supplementary cast of Odin's Rune may provide the answer.

The Three Rune Cast
With the issue stated aloud, draw three runes and place them Right, Centre and Left. The first Rune (Right) speaks of the situation as it now is. The second (Centre) suggests the course of action called for. And the third Rune (Left) foretells the outcome which will result from that action. Alternatively, if you are seeking to remove an obstacle from your life or your progress, you may read the Runes:
* Right - myself at present
* Centre - the challenge or obstacle
* Left - the best possible outcome if I am able to overcome the obstacle

The Runic Cross
This is a six Rune cast which will give you an in-depth analysis of an issue. It is similar to the classic Tarot layout, but who knows which came first? My intuition tells me the Runes follow the form of the Celtic Cross which was a common motif in Northern Europe even in pre-Christian times. Tarot is reputed to originate in ancient Egypt, but there is no evidence to link this to Bronze Age Europe. Most probably the two similar methods developed independently. State the issue and draw six Runes in the manner stated above. Cast them Right, Near Centre, Left, Near, Far Centre, Far.
The Right Rune represents the past, the situation which has brought this issue to exist. The Near Centre Rune represents you now and the Left is what lies ahead of you.
The Near Rune (known as the Foundation) gives the underlying basis of the issue, often subconscious or unrecognised reasons why the position has arisen.
The Far Centre (known as the Challenge) represents the nature of the obstacles or blockages which you wish to overcome.
The Far Rune (known as the Outcome) foretells the best outcome you can anticipate if overcoming the challenge.

Quest For Truth
This cast will give the most detailed analysis of personal destiny. It must be undertaken by an experienced Runemaster or Runemistress on behalf of the questioner (The Querent). This cast requires the selection of nine Runes: one by the Runemaster, the other eight by the Querent. The Runemaster/Runemistress should spend some time in conversation and company with the Querent to get a feel for the person and the subject. Then the Runemaster or Runemistress will select a single Rune in the usual way which will represent the Querent. The Querent will then be passed the Runebag and select eight more Runes, one by one and lay them in a three-by-three square to the pattern shown in the diagram opposite.
The bottom right Rune (drawn by the Runemaster/mistress) representing the Querent is known as the significator.
The second Rune reveals the inner self and cast middle row right.
The third Rune is cast top row right and deals with the goals or ideals of the Querent.
The fourth Rune is cast top row middle to represent the past.
The fifth Rune is cast at the centre of the square and tells of family matters.
The sixth Rune is cast bottom row middle and deals with the Querent's health.
The seventh Rune is cast bottom row left and speaks of religious matters.
The eighth Rune is cast middle row left and represents the Querent's friends.
The final Rune is cast top row left and reveals the final outcome of the matter.

The Three Lifetimes Cast
This cast is dedicated to reincarnation, and should not be practised lightly. It gives a three level insight into your journey through this life, your previous existence, and any future incarnation you may expect. If practising this cast, one should be aware that not everyone will experience reincarnation, and it is perhaps better not to know. I have found this to give startling results often invoking long-forgotten memories and giving the querent some discomfiture - even nightmares - for weeks afterwards. Speak the issue and draw five Runes in the same manner as before. Cast them Right, Centre, Left, Near, Far.
Right represents your birth and childhood and will point out your talents, attributes and shortcomings.
Centre represents your present life and will indicate actions you must take to improve your present life and thus deserve another.
Left shows what your future in this life holds for you if you follow the advice given.
Near gives an indication of your past life, it's character and your behaviour.
And finally, Far gives an indication of:
* Whether you will reincarnate and
* If so, what kind of person you will be

The Thor's Hammer Spread
Place the runes unseen in the runebag. Swirl the runes around in the bag gently with your writing hand, and let a Rune fall naturally into your fingers. Feel it and sense whether it is the right one to draw. Draw the runes one at a time and place them on the field in the pattern shown on the left. Never turn the runes - place them exactly as they come to hand on the field. Whether they are upright or reversed (i.e. upside down or right way up), and whether they appear converse or obverse (i.e. face down or face up) may make a difference to the meaning.
Interpret the runes according to their position as follows:
1 How others see me
2 My fears
3 What I seek
4 My best approach
5 My goal
6 Obstacles to overcome
7 My destiny
8 The way to my real self
9 My real self

I found the following online somewhere YEARS AGO I have No Idea who the author is :(

Rune Lessons
Spreads 1

Spreads are a useful divinatory tool. They are arrangements of rune ranging from one to twenty-four runes. Each position in the spread has it own significance and thus the order in which runes are drawn helps to determine their meaning in the reading. For any spread there are three main aspects to consider

1. Number of Runes
The number of runes in a spread determines the amount and nature of the information provided. As a rough rule, the more runes in a spread, the more work you will have to do as reader. With a 3-rune spread you can easily tell your client the full meaning of each of the runes. However with a 7-rune spread your client risks information overload if you do this. Not only do you have more runes to consider but you have to work harder drawing together the pertinent aspects and producing a summary interpretation that the client can easily absorb

Spreads of 1-3 runes are ideal where the reading is focussed around a decision which needs to be made. 4-6 rune spreads can be related to a decision but at least as important as the outcome is the need to take full account of contributory factors. Spreads of 7 or more runes are generally best used when a full picture is required of a situation or issue. It may be that action from the querent is called for but a short-term decision is not usually as important to these spreads as the need to establish long term direction.

2. Meaning of Each Position
Any given rune has a multitude of potential meanings many of which will not be appropriate to the issue under consideration in a reading. The spread is a tool used by the reader to narrow the message of the runes. Each rune can perform one or more of the following functions.

* DESCRIPTIVE - It can describe a situation, eg "Your life feels like it has come to a standstill"
* ADVISORY - Commenting on a situation and offering guidance, eg " Beware of deceit at this time. Choose your friends carefully"
* PREDICTIVE - It can suggest how events may turn out in the future provided the rest of the reading is heeded, eg " A positive end is likely with economic prosperity and emotional fulfillment"
* REPRESENTATIVE - It represents a person, animal or object, usually, but not exclusively, the literal meaning of its name or what its glyph depicts, eg Lagaz (Lagu) could be a lake

The more runes in a spread, the more diversity in functions the runes in that spread are likely to serve. In a single rune spread, the rune has to describe the situation, offer some guidance and give an idea of outcome. In a 7-rune spread though it is quite feasible for each rune to fulfil a single function. The title of a position in a spread can act to limit the functions that a rune in that position can perform and accordingly narrow the range of meanings available.

Let us consider this with a practical example. We have a 2-rune spread. The first position is entitled "Situation" and the second is called "Outcome". We can be fairly certain that runes in the first position will be descriptive and runes in the second position will be predictive. However since the purpose of divination is to provide guidance (as considered in the previous lesson) there must be an advisory function in the spread somewhere. In fact the meanings offered by the two runes in the spread are equally likely to offer an element of advice. However if we were to change the title of the second position, making it "Advice" then we can expect the guidance function to reside with that position and meanings offered by the first position rune to confine themselves largely to those which describe the situation.

This illustrates the importance of giving careful though to the titles of the different positions in a spread and hence to the function performed by those positions.

3. Shape of the Spread
There can be an element of sympathetic magic in spread design. The layout of the spread itself is intended to reflect the desired outcome. This can be illustrated by considering some possible shapes that can be produced by using three runes.

[Diagram showing 3 spreads, one triangular, one L shaped and one like an arrow]

If we ignore the fact that with just three runes there is more than an element of "eye-of-the-beholder" in these shapes, the shapes themselves may potentially have cultural significance s. The first is an equilateral triangle and since the three runes are an equal distance apart this might suggest they are equally important in the reading. Shape #2 is like a letter "L". In Britain those learning to drive have to have an additional "L" plate on the car as a warning to other drivers. The L shape then in Britain is associated with learning. The third shape resembles an arrow. We generally associate arrows with instruction and/or direction. A sign with an arrow upon it is not only illustrating a possible direction, it is ordering us to go that way.

Just because a shape is possible though does not mean it will be of use, or indeed that all shapes are equally good. Shape 1 would be difficult to apply, it is too mathematical and abstract. If the client wanted to know what lessons could be learned from a given situation then shape 2 might be applied. It would work in Britain and be understandable in English-speaking countries where the initial letter of the verb "to learn" is indeed "L". In drawing up spreads it is important to understand that the recognition and connotations of shapes may vary from region to region. There are few shapes that can be said to have universal meaning. Shape 3 is possibly one that does. It would be good for use in a reading with someone who feels that they have lost their way and was seeking new focus/direction in their lives.

In this lesson we have been introduced to the concept of rune spreads which are a powerful divinatory tool. We have seen how the choice of spreads is influenced by what one is trying to achieve. Moreover it then assists in narrowing the range of meanings from all those which are possible to those which are appropriate to a particular reading. We introduced the 4-function rune model which is overly simplistic but useful for learning purposes. Because rune reading is a mystic process we are not normally aware of the mechanisms underlying it. However an awareness of them at this stage will prove helpful for the next lesson when we start looking at actual spreads.

Spreads 2
Introduction

In the previous lesson we introduced to the concept of rune spreads and saw how they could be used in divination. Choice of spreads is very much a matter of individual preference. Some rune readers find a spread they feel comfortable with and use that with all their clients whereas others like to vary the spread according to the nature of the information the querent is seeking to find out. We will be looking at some actual spreads in this lesson so that you can make an informed decision.

Choosing Spreads
When you start out as a runecaster it is probably best to stick to simple spreads. This way you don't have too many different runes to cope with which can initially be confusing. As your confidence grows you will come to appreciate the power of more complex spreads and how they can be used to provide a significant amount of detail about a situation including revealing information that may be deliberately concealed or otherwise unknown.

Which spread you apply in a given situation is very much a matter of personal choice coupled with intuition. Before making your decision, look at the client and their requirements, the issue itself and how you feel. It is easy to overlook the last of these. Divination is not a mechanical process, it very much depends upon the ability and focus of the reader. Rune casting can be physically and emotionally tiring. One of the great joys of the runes is that they are able to convey complex and deep meanings in very small spreads. If you are already weary and confident that a simple spread will offer sufficient illumination then there is no need to use something more draining. It is important to always be professional in your approach and ensure that you do not short change the querent, whether or not the reading is a commercial one or a favor for a friend. However remember that a three rune spread competently interpreted is much better than a 10-rune spread where some details are missed because the reader was fatigued. Go with how you feel, let your heart guide you. Sometimes you will know instinctively to use a complex spread with a situation that on the surface appears straightforward. Experience and listening to your psychic side will guide you to the correct course of action.

Spreads are like everything else, you will find some that feel natural to you and which you use regularly, others that are harder to use and which seem artificial to you, and some you truly dislike and will never use. You may well decide to settle on just using one of the three rune spreads which is fine. As a new reader though you should try as many spreads as possible in order to find the one, or ones, that suit you.
Single Rune Spread

Ralph Blum calls this spread Odin's Rune and using just one rune, it is the simplest possible spread. The depth of the analysis it can therefore offer is somewhat restricted. Its not a spread to use then if you need to look at a situation in some detail.

What it is ideal for are those situations which necessitate a quick direct response to a given set of events. It favors simple questions of the kind "Should I .. ?". Unless you receive Peorth in its more secretive aspect [or the Blank Rune if you use it], then Odin's Rune is always unequivocal, leaving you in no doubt what the runes are saying to you. However the amount of advice this spread provides is inevitably limited and hence for major life-changing decisions many people prefer to use one of the 3-rune spreads instead, for great insight in the same situation.

A quick decisive response is what Odin's rune always offers and it should be used in those situations where this is what you require.

Three Rune Spreads
Spreads which use 3 runes tend to be particularly popular amongst runecasters. Partly this is because of their ease of use and partly because we do know, thanks to the Roman historian Tacitus, that a 3-rune spread was used in antiquity. It is important however to realize that we don't have details of this ancient spread beyond what Tacitus wrote which means we know little more than it used three runes. Since divination has always been a secretive art, it is unlikely that the diviner would have shared details with Tacitus particularly as he was the enemy so the reliability of the information he has to offer must be in doubt anyway. All 3 rune spreads you will therefore encounter are modern and none has a greater claim to authenticity than any other. Nor is this important. It matters that a given spread works for you not whether it worked for a Viking runecaster.
Standard Spread

Blum's 3-rune spread was the first rune spread used by a great many rune readers. The spread presented here is a slight variation upon it. Like the runes themselves this spread is elegant and deceptively simple.

[3 Rune spread]
Deeper patterns (which will be considering as a topic in the next lecture) can occur with this spread though generally we find this happens less than with most others. Each of the runes in the spread serves a different function (predictive, advisory and descriptive) and the spread can therefore produce quite a detailed analysis. This is a quick easy spread which is adaptable to most purposes.

[Staves of Wyrd Spread]
Another 3-rune variant which is given this particular title in Silver
Ravenwolf's The Rune Mysteries though this is a traditional spread with
an obvious link to the Norns.
This makes it popular with traditionalists, some of whom will not use any other spread. As there is no rune specifically performing the advisory function it can be a little harder for novices to tease out advice from the reading. In addition, as we addressed previously, the use of "future" implies that future events are pre-ordained, which we know is not the case. This aside, it can be a very useful and revealing spread, highlighting factors in the past which led to the present situation. You should therefore be prepared for the fact this spread can yield some surprises.

[The Laguz Spread]
A spread which forms the shape of the Laguz (Lagu) rune, a fact that is significant because it is intended for those who are willing to "go with the flow". Since there is no predictive element in this spread, it is for those who are prepared to think about the present and put total trust in the runes, rather than seeking particular outcomes. Laguz (Lagu) is a rune of intuition and psychic powers and this can thus be a very revealing spread, being particularly good amongst the simple spreads for probing deep emotional issues and bringing to light hidden factors. It is also a good spread for learning with.

Five Rune Spreads

[Cross of Thor Spread]
A good analytical spread which gives a helpful overview of a situation, taking into account both supporting and obstructive factors. This spread is quite unusual though in having two runes performing a predictive function. It is ideal therefore for someone who is very concerned about outcomes.

[5 Elements Spread]
This fascinating spread is to be found in Donald Tyson's book Rune Magic. It is quite different from most of the spreads we have looked at so far since it is used to give an insight into personality rather than events.

1. INTELLECT - relates to studies, invention, composition, mathematics, science and the classical arts
2. DESIRE - relates to battles, lust, cruelty, anger, hatred, desire and works of destruction
3. STRENGTH - relates to labor, endurance, persistence, silence, suffering and woe
4. LOVE - relates to family, friendships, devotion, obsessions, illusions, fantasy and lyrical arts
5. BALANCE - symbolizes the querent and relates to politics, religion and magic

Conclusion
In this lecture we have taken a brief look at a number of the hundreds of spreads which are available. The three rune spreads are all excellent for learning with and the "Staves of Wyrd " and "Standard Spread" have both served many a rune caster well. The others are much more specialized but were to give you an idea of how widely spreads vary, from spreads with no predictive elements such as "The Laguz Spread" to those with two or more predictive components, such as "The Cross of Thor". Though some traditionalists dismiss spreads as an idea derived from other divination techniques such as Tarot, nonetheless many well-regarded authors on the runes, such as Aswynn, make use of them.

Archangels Almanac For October 2006

2009-05-19T23:10:00.002-04:00

FLASHBACK lol-
I've been meaning to chart more almanacs since this one below but have been a busy bee doing everything but, so one of these days I intend to MAKE TIME to get a current one done up. So heres a flashback while you're waiting, lol...

Archangels Almanac For October 2006:)

I conjured this puppy today out of thin air to help all of us to understand what in Hekates' name is the reasoning behind the current chaos within our personal lives and Magickal workings. Because I Have Just Added the Almanac Today Sat-Oct-28-2006, Only The Present & Future Findings For This month are listed in Almanac, the rest have been omitted to avoid confusion, and to provide a more helpful and much needed current reading:) The Almanac Is Strictly My own Work: Hence The Magickal Name 'Lady Astoria' Given to me Many Moons Ago By my Sister Boudicca:) So Now You Will See Why...

Spells For October:
In all honesty, Since Mercury Is in retrograde (moving backwards), as of today, I urge that you refrain from casting any spells that you would otherwise normally cast this month, with the exception of the traditional Day Of The Dead & Samhain Rites. Spells are unfortunately likely to backfire this month, and knowing this now can save you a lot of heartache:)

Deities For October: Hekate & Hades, Isis & Osiris.

Gems For October:
Opal & Tourmaline, and this year I also suggest carrying some Tiger Eye & Hematite due to the need for grounding all of the scattered, nervous energy & tensions that are currently in the air, the hematite will help to ease the physical pain your body will otherwise suffer from the amount of chaos, disorder and stress caused by the current planetary allignments.

Planetary Transits For October 2006:
Times Here Are In Eastern Daylight Time...
10/02 Mercury enters Scorpio 0:38am
10/06 Aries Full Moon 2:10am
10/22 Libra New Moon 1:14am
10/23 Sun enters Scorpio 9:27am
10/23 Mars enters Scorpio 12:38pm
10/24 Venus enters Scorpio 5:58am
10/28 Mercury Retrograde 3:16pm
10/29 Neptune Direct 2:57am
10/29 Daylight Savings Time ends
10/30 Day Of The Dead Festival
10/31 Samhain/Hallowmas/Halloween

BAW ALMANAC: OCTOBER 2006 BY ARCHANGEL

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 28/2006:
When Mercury (The Planet Ruling Technology & Communication) turns retrograde (Starts moving Backwards) Today, Bad News, Arguments, Hard Feelings, Misunderstandings & Mix ups are afoot. Today will feel exceptionally shitty for some, if not all because nothing, and I mean nothing, seems to go your way, you will be clutzy, forgetful, and just prone to snap at the drop of a hat (because of Mars and Venus being in Scorpio:)

This Causes GRAND conspiracy theories to arise over minor
coincidence, and over suspiciousness in all of us, not because we are nuts, but because deep down, we are all feeling extremely vulnerable and are taking everything more personal than usual. My heart goes out to those poor souls: seeming caught red handed who will be in the "it's not what you think situation" but trying to explain it will make things worse because they will trip over their words and appear untruthful. If it helps, October in general is the time of year when everyone begins their descent into the underworld to do that souls earching.

SUNDAY, OCTOBER 29/2006:
Smell That Fresh Samhain Air, I Love It:) We all do, it marks our New Year and the Magick and Wonder of What Lies ahead for us all, Especially this year with Neptune turning Direct today. We Can't seem to get anything right by Talking, so we will find ourselves daydreaming, healing and meditating, which is just what the Shaman ordered considering Yesterday, and the forecast ahead:)

MONDAY, OCTOBER 30/2006:
Day Of The Dead: Today is the day that those of us who choose to, perform a day time ritual, throw a VIP party Honoring The Dead, and share our loving memories of all of our deceased ancestors, with our living friends & Family. If you've sent out your invites, don't be discouraged or angry if very few or no one shows up, Mercury is behind this mix up & they likely have been misplaced, or not received yet:)

TUESDAY, OCTOBER 31/2006:
Samhain begins on the 31st. The Moon will be in Pisces & Mercury is still moving backward so the temptation to party a little too hard may overwhealm those with weaker resolve. Please remember what samhain is about, and that being intoxicated on this particular eve, with these planetary alignments in full effect, wether you cast an ultra-protective circle or not, leaves you wide open to semi and or full possession:)

Be Mindful this Samhain & watch carefully what you say and whom you say it to as Mercury is still moving backwards in the sign of Scorpio, making people of all signs suspicious of everyone & Everything, over-sensitive & easily offended.

Because the energy level is exasperatingly high this Samhain and with so much going on in Scorpio people are at their worst, and few can actually control it, even a small misunderstanding can potentially cost you a relationship with a loved one, if you are not quick to do damage control. I hate to be the prophet of doom here, But I am Certain ALL who have read this, know exactly what I mean.

Just Remember, Neptune is Direct, and perhaps its time to do more thinking, planning, Journaling, Writing & Daydreaming or delve into your favorite hobbies, to help you ground yourself in these chaotic times. Believe me when I advise you that trying to fix what is broken THIS INSTANT, will backfire and worsen the situation. As they say in a major crisis "Try To Remain Calm" Remember dear ones, This too shall pass:) Above all be extra Kind and Patient with yourself and others, we are all feeling panicked and technically Not ourselves;)

Have A Safe and Happy Samhain
With Love and Blessings from Your Resident Archangel:)

Homemade Chalk Recipes

2009-05-01T11:04:00.001-04:00

Homemade Chalk Recipe 1

Best for ages 4 and up

Materials
* Toilet tissue tube (or an ice cube tray to create smaller chunks for younger hands)
* Duct tape
* Aluminum foil if you are using a toilet paper tube (or petroleum jelly if you're using an ice cube tray)
* Disposable plastic container
* Plaster of Paris
* Water
* Liquid tempera paint
* Spoon

Instructions
Step 1
Cover one end of the toilet paper tube with duct tape. Loosely roll an 8- by-41/2-inch piece of aluminum foil and slip it into the tube so that it lines the inside, fitting snugly. (Or coat the inside of the ice cube tray with petroleum jelly.)

Step 2
Set tube upright (duct tape side down) on protected surface.

Step 3
In a disposable plastic container, help your child mix 1 cup plaster of Paris with 1/2 cup water. Stir slowly and thoroughly until plaster is dissolved, about 1 minute.

Step 4
Immediately add 2 tablespoons paint (or more for brighter chalk color, but be careful it can stain). Mix thoroughly.

Homemade Chalk Recipe 2

This homemade chalk recipe is a great activity for you and your kids. Of course using the chalk to draw together afterwards is a lot of fun too.

You’ll Need
* 5 Egg Shells
* 1 TSP Flour
* 1 TSP Hot Water
* Food Coloring

Directions:
Wash the eggshells with antibacterial soap, rinse well and let them dry. When they are completely dry, put them in a bowl and use the back of a spoon to grind them into a fine powder.

Combine flour and hot water in a bowl. Add 1 tbsp of the ground up egg shells and mix until it forms a thick paste. Add your food coloring and mix again until the color is evenly distributed.

Form a log shape out of it, just like a regular piece of chalk. Wrap it tightly in a piece of paper towel and let it dry for about 3 days.

Works great on your sidewalk or driveway.

My Blessing Spells

Archangels Blessing Chant #1
"Blessings before you, Blessings behind you
Blessings above you, Blessings below you
Blessings within you, Blessings around you
Brightest Blessings to you, of comfort & peace,
And all else you need, So mote it be!"
Chant in your head, once only, while your target is in plain view. It works best when you DON'T tell the person they are being blessed. It's a random act of Magickal Kindness. I do it all the time when passing people on the street who look sad. It also works on animals & plants.
-Written By: Archangel 2005. © Copyright 2009 Born Again Wiccan. All Rights Reserved.

Archangels Blessing Chant #2
"Wherever you're going, Wherever you've been,
Whatever you're learning, Whatever you've seen;
Wherever you're hurting, Whatever you need,
Wherever you are protection & peace,
Chant in your head, & has the same functions as th previous Blessing.

My Finding Spells

Archangels' Prayer To St.Anthony-Finding Lost Objects
When I was about 6 years old, I lost something @ my Grandmothers house. She Taught me the following chant & I found it instantly. I have used it ever since:) She Said "St Anthony is the finder of lost objects. To ask for his help, Chant the following:
"Tony, Tony, Look around, My lost (whatever), has been found"
-Written By: Archangel 2006 © Copyright 2009 Born Again Wiccan. All Rights Reserved.

Archangels' Silver String Spell For Lost Objects
Normally I use my pendulum to find lost objects, and in the event that I don't have it handy, this is what I've always done...
When You've lost something, visualize a silver string wrapped around the object, & the other end of the string wrapped around your hand. Chant The Following While You Search:
"Bound and binding, Binding bound,
See the sight, Hear the sound,
What once was lost, now is found,
Bound and binding, Binding bound."
Usually I find it within 3-5 minutes. If that doesn't work for you, keep chanting & try pulling any slack out of the string, and then just follow it with your minds' eye. You can even reel it in as if you're fishing in your minds' eye, this works just as well:) I've done all of the above many times and it always works for me so I thought I'd pass it on.

Archangels' Spell To Stay Dry In A Rain Storm
A Wise friend of mine, Steve, once taught me that to stay dry in the rain all you have to do is harden your aura. I tried it and it works:) The more I concentrated on hardening my aura, the less wet I got. It was like having an invisible umbrella:) Try it, it takes practice but it really works.

My Curses

Chant To Cause A Headache
This Chant Is ONLY to be used in the event That you are Constantly and Deliberately being harrassed, stalked, sabotaged, betrayed, stressed, manipulated or harmed by a person you thought you could trust. If you cast it for any other reason, just because you are diappointed, or pissed off at someone, Then You will be rewarded with having caused YOURSELF a Horrible Headache that will NOT go away until you undo this chant.. and you are on your own with that part!
Chant:
"(Name of person) Hear Me well,
For you have purposely made my life a hell.
All you've done to stress and hurt me, I now send back to you,
Now you reap all that you've sown, And you may keep this headache too.
-Written By Archangel 2006. © Copyright 2009 Born Again Wiccan. All Rights Reserved.

Archangel's Purging Curse
This spell is a curse, designed to help you let go of all of the emotional stress and pain a person has caused you. especially if this person ruined your life and you are having troube starting over.
The Spell: Light a black candle, and while summoning every bit of pain that loser caused you, chant the following...
"By Karmic Power Of 3x3,
All Pain You've Caused Returns To Thee;
There Is Nowhere For You To Hide,
Your Fate The Gods Alone Decide."
Snuff out the candle with your fist by just slamming it onto the flame. Use your projective/right hand. This will release all of the anger & hurt you're feeling and send it back to the idiot who caused it.
-Written By Archangel 2004. © Copyright 2009 Born Again Wiccan. All Rights Reserved.

Archangel's Freezer Spell
To Get rid of Annoying Visitors & Unwanted Company. Especially those who deliberately deprive you of peace & quiet and privacy.
Items Needed:
Permanent Marker,
1 white candle & a lighter or matches to light it.
A Piece of paper large enough to write down the Name(s) of each person you want frozen out of your life).
A LARGE ziplock freezer bag-Bigger is better if freezing more than 1 person.
3 cups water
The Spell: On the paper write the name of every person you want frozen out of your life! (NEVER EVER freeze the persons photograph!) Light the candle and pour the wax over the paper. Allow wax to dry completely. Put the paper in the bag, fill the bag 1/2 full of water & zip it closed. Lay it flat, remove as much air as possible. Once paper is completely covered with water, double check the bag to make sure it is sealed tightly and place in freezer. It's very important that the paper STAYS immersed in the water! If the wax causes it to float, wait until the water is 1/2 frozen, and carefully place the paper in between the ice. * You can always add more water if needed, after it's frozen:) The person/people will stay out of your life for as long as the bag remains frozen. To undo this spell: Simply thaw out the bag, discard the water, remove the paper & dry it out.

Archangel's Karmic Curse
I wrote this curse for a dear friend of mine who's life was destroyed by an evil cult of witches. I have hexed them with the following spell I wrote (which will cause them harm, but it is due harm, and it speeds up the karma process). I did this because upon praying about it, I recieved confirmation that there are still some in hiding.
"Bring swift karma 3x3,
upon all who have caused this suffering.
your time has come, and justice sent,
I curse ye thrice thy worst intent.
I dig you out from where you hide,
your fates the Gods alone decide."

My Protection Spells

My Protection Spells

Archangels God/dess Protection Circle Chant
Visualize a tripple circle of protective, bright, purple light around yourself, your loved ones, or your home/car etc.
Chant the following repeatedly Until Protection is given or as you feel is needed:
"I am protected by Your Might.
Gracious God and Goddess, Day and Night.
Thrice about Thy Holy Circle is bound.
I Banish Evil From These Grounds."
For more than one, yourself included say "We are protected..." For someone other than yourself, say "You are protected by OUR might." The reason you say Our is because you are helping God/dess by lending your own power and by choosing to be a conduit of Thiers"
-Written By: Archangel 2005. © Copyright 2009 Born Again Wiccan. All Rights Reserved.

Archangels Chant To Hekate For Mercy, Union, Protection & Power
"Hekate, dark One, Hear my plea,
Through the underworlds please Guide me.
Help me to heal my broken heart.
Thy Gifts of self-Love please impart.
Hekate, Wise One, Be with me.
Beyond this darkness, make me see.
Guide me down this unknown path,
That I may live in love and shed this wrath.
Hekate, Teacher of all lessons that be,
With Thy Cloak of Power, encircle me;
Let me never again feel this lost or alone,
Walk with me always, Wisest Crone."

Chant This Spell until Hekate comes to you and Power is Given, & don't forget to thank Her. This spell is perfect for a broken heart, depression, grief, letting go, feelings of loss, apathy, isolation and abandonment. Also Good when a relationship ends and whatever else ails you emotionally and Spiritually. It Helps when you make massive change and are walking a new or unknown path, moving far away, quitting an addiction, enduring rites of passage in your life, such as, parenthood, menopause, mid-life crisis, marriage, pregnancy, childbirth, and the death of a loved one be it a friend or relative or even the death of a way of life you had grown to love.

Until true love is all we feel and find.
Surmount all obsticles in our paths,
Bind them from stirring and provoking wrath;
So be it done that it harm none,
blessing every single one.
By Karmic Power of three times three,
By The Lord, the Lady, and by Me;
By Earth, Air, Fire, Spirit and Sea,
I call forth a truce, So Mote it be."

Lest this my blessing, transform to spell;
For it binds the souls of all who read,
But without my Blessing, cursed ye be.
With all my powers, I fill these pages,
And pass them down through all the ages;
Forever bound to my seed and I,
Sheilded from all prying, evil eyes.
Save our soulmates, whose kindred path this be,
To whom I sayeth: Blessed Be!
May it never harm or leave its' keeper;
For all who try be harmed thrice deeper;
Nor may it never harm or kill another,
But bless all children of Our Mother.
Through Spirit I bind this book to me,
Through blood I bind it to my seed;
Till I return when it shall be mine,
To guard and fill in every lifetime.
Lord and Lady Bless This my Book,
And all who ask to take a look;
But to those who snoop without consent:
I curse ye thrice Thy worst intent.
I bind this book by all good powers that be,
That only truth be inked in Thee;
By the Lord and the Lady, and by Me,
As I do will, So shall it be! "

My Fire Spells To Prevent Burn

2009-04-14T20:34:00.004-04:00

Archangels Fire Spells To Prevent Burn
To Prevent Burn You have Many Options:

-Harden Your Aura Drurring A Fire-to do this picture the aura around yourself Rock solid and make sure it extends at least 3-5 inches away from your body. Hold this image in your mind for at least 60 seconds focusing on NOTHING ELSE!

Now: Mentally Fix it-Convince Your Brain It's Real and it works. Emotionally Fix it-don't Merely Believe its working-You
MUST KNOW IT. Physically fix it: Open Your eyes and notice that you are not getting burned. Spiritually Fix it: Trust it completely: Know that you are Protected By God and Goddess and are MOST likely being called into service to Help Save others. In this way you can safely manuver through a burning house or other building to grab and wake up others and snatch up the odd cat or other animal in within your reach. Just trust that God and Goddess are guiding you and remain calm-Pannic will soften your aura and can kill you. Yes I have done this-many times and I'm passing it on to other Witches in the event that a fire emergency takes place.

-Use Visualization: To Do this I have Always Pictured Myself In A Fireproof Steel Sphere. It Works For me:)

-Summon The Archangel Michael And Ask for His Protection.

-And Obviously-the non-magickal solution is to take safety precautions: wear Fire-Retardant Clothing, or at the very least clothing that isn't frilly and loose to prevent it from igniting:)

-I also suggest either growing or buying an aloe-vera plant, for making a moisturizing aloe-gel, balm, salve or cream to keep in your first aid kit.

Aura Color Correspondences

2009-04-14T20:02:00.003-04:00

Aura Colors Revised By Archangel
Here is a reference guide that I have found to be true concerning auras and thier colors I have updated it recently:

Vibrant-Bright-Red- Red is the easiest color to see in the light spectrum. Red represents general energy and physical vitality.

Medium-Red- often denotes physical activity, anger, agitation, frustration restricted movement, raw lust, pure desire, adrenaline, and stifled thought.The expression, "seeing red" is often descried as a state of anger, as is 'red with rage'.

Dark Deep-Blood-Red- Someone suffering from a severe physical illness or disease. Possibly blood disorder, cancer, heart, liver, kidney problems etc. Do NOT guess whats wrong, just tell this person to see a doctor immediately because you sense or detect a serious health problem.

Brown- Brown in someone's emotional layer is seen as base physical desires, personal greed, earthly gains. It can also represent personal gain, money attitudes and hidden motive.

Dark Brown- Infertility (as in barren Earth in Fall & Winter only financially speaking), one who may become or is surrounded by con artists, drug dealers, dishonest money, etc. Could also just indicate someone desperately poor or who has become bankrupt.

Bright-Canary/Pastel Yellow- sometimes represents familiar bonding, and social happiness. This person is like a breath of fresh air.

Medium-Vibrant-Yellow- Sometimes, a bright yellow streak appears at a moment of delight or joy, at a happy realization or moment. Yellow, especially a yellow that engulfs the aura often represents a state of Revelation, also thinking and working within thought.

Dark-Yellow-Green- may represent pride, one who is somewhat of a gossip or judgemental. Be careful what you say to this person, They may be digging for information to be used against you later.

Golden- Gold is the color of pure self-righteousness (in the good sense), spiritual fortitude. and divinity. May be a religious teacher, Jungian psychologist, therapist, faith healer or one who councils others on emotional spiritual matters.

Dark Pink or Magenta's- loyalty, commitment, understanding.

Blue-Bright- calming shades of blue denote relaxation retreat, mental calm. Also may indicate moments of spirituality.

Deep Blue- speaking and living true to thier beliefs, an honest person, one who gives sound advice and actually takes it themselves, speaks from personal experience rather than guessing.

Dark or Navy Blue- This indicates a very 'orderly' emotionally controlled person, who means well but appears outspoken and sometimes cold or emotionally distant. almost -military or rational-minded' person.

Homage To The 21 Taras-English Version

2009-02-16T00:36:00.004-05:00

Homage To The 21 Taras-English Version

Om!
To Great, Noble Tara, I bow down.
1 (Taraas All)
I praise the Fearless, the Swift One, Protector, whose glance is sheet-lightning.
On the face of Chenrezi, she is born from a tear as a bud from a lotus.

2 (Red Tara).
She of the face like the full moons of autumn
that blazes the light of the stars in their thousands.

3 (White Tara).
I praise the Body, all turquoise and golden; Whose hand is adorned with the lotus, most perfect,
Whose realm is most generous, diligent, simple. Peaceful and patient, she sits in meditation.

4 (Greenish Tara).
Seated above the heads of all Buddhas, resplendent in joyous and infinite triumph,
Deeply honoured by all Bodhisattvas, She is perfect in all of the virtues transcendent.

5 (White Tara).
With ‘Tutare’ and ‘Hung!’ she imbues this world, all ten directions and infinite space.
And trampling seven worlds under her feet, she is able to summon them all to her place.

6 (Orange Tara).
I praise the One to whom great gods make toasts.
She is honored by spirits, and demons, and ghosts.

7 (Reddish Black tara).
I hail the One, who by ‘Treh’ and by ‘Peh!’ undoes all the plots of conspiring foes;
Who wrapped in the fire that rages around her, with right leg retracted and left one extended, Tramples the evil ones under her toes.

8 (Black Tara).
I praise the Swift, the One who is Fearsome who with terrible aspect defeats boldest demons.
Her lotus face angrily frowns down upon them so all foes are vanquished, not a single remains.

9 (Blackish Red Tara).
I sing the praises of Her whose hand forms the Triple Gem mudra right at her heart.
In her grasp the Dharma Wheel spins out its light in all the directions and to every part.

10 (White Tara).
On her brow she wears radiant joy like a tiara
charming demons and gods with her laugh of Tutara.

11 (Red Tara).
She can summon the guards of this world of desire. With wrathful expression, when Hung! does she utter,
she liberates everyone, no more to suffer.

12 (Dark Orange Tara).
She wears the crescent moon as a diadem;
and shining atop her hair clustered in curls Rests the Buddha Amida, the ornament on them.

13 (Orange Tara).
She is the Focus of the flaming garland as the darkening kalpa draws to its close.
With right leg extended and left one drawn in, for those who rejoice in the Dharma Wheel’s turning, She is the one who defeats all their foes.

14 (Red Tara).
Full force to her palm, she strikes the universe’ base.
Crying Hung! with a frown as she stamps it down, She subdues all the denizens of seven levels of that nether place.

15 (Reddish Black Tara).
I salute Lady Peace, Dame Perfection and Bliss; her realm is Nirvana.
Between Om! and Swaha! all blemishes vanish by means of her mantra.*
*Om,Tare Tutare Ture Soha.

16 (White Tara).
All hail the conquering opponent of those who rejoice as the Wheel of the Dharma goes round.
She liberates by means of the radiant light From the Hung! in the ring of the ten-syllable sound.

17 (Red Tara).
I praise The Swift-footed. Hung! is her seed.
Shaker of Meru, Mandara, Kailash, Stamping and trampling three worlds with her feet.

18 (Orange Tara).
She bears the hare-marked moon, lake of the devas.
And by twice saying ‘Tara’ And then saying, ‘P'hey’, She removes all contaminants, poisons or kleshas.

19 (White Tara).
She whom gods, titans and spirits attend, Can dispel any terrors that come in dark hours,
A proof against Chaos, her beauty has powers.

20(White Tara).
Shining, her eyes like the sun and full moon, By twice saying ‘Hara’ and then, ‘Tutarahyi’,
She can put paid the deadly, the wide-raging plague.

21 (Orange Tara).
This great dharani ~ this is Her song: The Praises to Tara, all twenty-one!
*Om,Tare Tutare Ture Soha.

The hymn is called the 21 Homages to Tara or 21 Hymns but also, The Twenty-one Taras, since each of the stanzas describes not only an aspect but an image of her.

At least one version of this well-known "hymn" has an extra or introductory stanza that is inserted before the first Praise. It is a summary. See Advice below. (The Praises are each numbered here at the end of every transliterated Tibetan stanza.) The recitation of these Praises is a daily practice for many Tibetans and also other practitioners.

Refuge vows, and the Tara empowerment from an accredited teacher is required for doing the complete liturgy with offerings. Anyone, though, can read, chant or sing the 21 Praises.

Prayer for a suffering World

2009-02-16T00:21:00.001-05:00

Prayer for a suffering World
To release suffering
Prayer by Tangtong Gyalpo, the Highly Accomplished (as transmitted by Lama Zopa)

All sentient beings equal to Space, go for refuge to the precious Guru-Buddha.
We go for refuge to the Buddha, the Dharma, and the Sangha.
We go for refuge to the assembly of gurus, yidams, and dakinis.
We go for refuge to the empty clarity of our own minds, the Dharmakaya.
[Recite these Refuge verses as many times as you can: Usually 3x, 7x, 21x, etc.]

OM MANI PADME HUM [Recite this mantra hundreds of times -- usually 108x, 111x or multiples. ]

May all the diseases, which sadden the minds of sentient beings, resulting from karma and temporary conditions such as harm due to spirits, from illnesses and the elements, not occur in the realms of the world.

May whatever sufferings there are due to life-threatening diseases that, like a butcher leading a being to slaughter separate body from mind in a mere instant, not occur in the realms of the world.

May all embodied beings not be harmed by acute, chronic, and other kinds [of illness] such as infectious diseases of which names the mere sound terrifies beings, as if they had been placed [directly] into the mouth of Yama, Lord of Death.

May all embodied beings not be harmed by the 80,000 classes of malicious interferers, the 360 evil spirits that harm suddenly, the 424 diseases, and so on.

May whatever sufferings there be due to disturbances of the four elements that deprive body and mind of every pleasure, be totally pacified, and may body and mind enjoy radiance and power and be endowed with long life, good health, and well-being.

By the compassion of the Gurus and the Triple Gem, the power of the dakinis, Dharma protectors and guardians, and by the strength of the infallibility of karma and its results, may these many dedications and prayers be fulfilled as soon as they are made.

The Chronicles Of Super Witch 05-> NEVER Underestimate Anything!!!
Ok so we're all somewhat aware of the power of the spoken word, and How our THOUGHTS, as insignificant as some may seem, can even become manifest (be brought into being on the physical plain).

But few people realize that there are 4 dangerous aspects in magick, they are listed below in order of MOST dangerous First:
The Thought
The Spoken Word
The Written Word
The Drawing Of Certain Images

To perform any of the 4 acts above is to give something Life, and ALL things that have Life have a WILL of their own.
I'm not saying this to scare the crap out of anyone, but more to teach you what I learned the hard way, in order to save you the suffering.

I've posted a great article about it called the dangers of Enochian Magick by: Gerald and Betty Scheuler, however, the warnings in that article apply, from my own experience to ALL FORMS OF MAGICK and ALL WITCHES.

I found the original article here: http://www.llewellynencyclopedia.com/article/27

What The article doesn't cover, is the focus of this particular chronicle. Curiosity killed the cat, and that cat DID NOT COME BACK! In My Case It Could've killed a LOT more than a Cat...

My ex was doing some independent research one day, and ended up at the Church Of Satan website (I actually told him to go there to read this: The Nine Satanic Statements: http://www.churchofsatan.com/Pages/NineStatements.html ), just to get a feel for who they really are and drop the stereotypes.

Well, he decided to wander around, and stumbled upon this (Which is NOT Good at all): Enochian Pronunciation Guide ( http://www.churchofsatan.com/Pages/EnochianGuide.html ) Keep in mind this is the DEMONIC VERSION so don't read it or absorb it, in fact if you can help yourself, refrain from clicking on the link at all:). Well, HE started reading it OUT LOUD, and although I'm not Fluent in Enoch YET, I felt ICE COLD chills coursing throughout my entire body, so I sat up in my seat. ( ALA PSYCHO WITCH & JUST LOST IT) to cut him off before he did any serious damage. We got in a HUGE fight over it because he thought I was trying to "CONTROL" how much he learns where when & why etc. *VERY LOUD SIGH & ROLLING EYES*

EVERYONE who knows me knows that's NOT the case at all. You see I am BENT on spiritual protection, harmony etc and I am EXTREMELY sensitive to negativity in any form, so My SOUL took immediate offense to the words he was trying to pronounce, my body went on auto-pilot, and I just yelled at him: "IDIOT! STOP! You have NO IDEA what you're doing. Shut Up!" But it was for his own good, and everyone else's too, you can thank me later lol. If I ever pitch a Fit Like I just did, there is a damned good reason for it, so pay attention! Ok, so, maybe my own "attitude" is in need of alignment, but seriously, tell me wouldn't you snap also if you had a young baby less than 1 year old in the next room while he's reading this crap??? You are not required to answer that, I already KNOW you would. As my Sister Lady Boudicca always says: Hell hath NO fury like a pissed Witch & the veins in my neck are still sticking out just thinking about it.

Anyway about 7 hours later, he was calm enough for me to show him the above article, because he would not let me get a word in edgewise to explain why I was so furious, and NOW he gets it. Which is wonderful, but a pain in the ass also because he gets these stupid notions in his head that I see him as "subservient" or "lesser than" me, and then we have to fight about that for about 3 hours, it's retarded. Allow me to explain That I am a Taurus and He is a Scorpio, and apparently the stars are aligned in such away that lack of peace is the price I always pay for trying to protect any person from themselves. Oh Life is AWESOME in MY Universe!

Anyway, I was able to explain to him I have a few "other beliefs",
1- that certain knowledge should NOT be given to anyone who would misuse or abuse it (knowingly or not), those who are NOT mentally stable, and those who are ignorant/obnoxious/selfish/greedy/manipulative/just plain stupid and would use it just to say they've done it-to boost their own egos, Power-trip, etc. And of course, anyone who's intent with such knowledge is questionable (in a bad way). (in this instance he falls into this category)

2- Never Underestimate Anything, especially the 4 things above. (and this He Just did!)

3- All things you read, hear see, touch taste, smell etc are catalogued into your subconcious mind, so one needs to exercise caution on what they subject themselves to. Because your subconscious mind is ALWAYS ACTIVE with or without your consent!

In closing I'd just like to add that I love my husband, he's cute as hell, a sweetheart at heart, when he wants to be, BUT Hes just curious and suspicious to a fault. He asks me to teach him and will NOT let me, then he complains that I don't teach him anything! All I can say is No I can't because I'm too busy saving the WORLD from stupid shit people do, and, MY GOD/DESS make it stop! I need to sip some tea & chill the f*ck out!

If this article can help even one person I am happy to have gone through the crap I just did in order to be able to write it.
