Meditation Of Healing And Radiating Love


Meditation Of Healing And Radiating Love Cover
This meditation can be used for Angelic healing. I am practicing this meditation for all the people who are in need of wellbeing. You are welcome to use it. Let us send love and light to all those in need.

Begin by visualizing a sparkling celestial white light in front of you, breathing in and out, as you breathe in this angelic white light, feel the angelic light energy expanding and surrounding you. You feel a peaceful relaxing energy and as you continue to breathe gently you see the angelic light expansion is ever increasing within and around your body.

Now speak from your heart, and make your intention known to God, the Angels, and the Archangels: we call upon the Archangel Raphael and all the Angels of healing to work with people who are in need of wellness. We call on Archangels, the Angels, and Angelic hosts of white light to assist us and provide love to all minds, and hearts, and where physical healing is required now. (Visualize all people in Haiti).

You notice a large quartz crystal above your head, from this crystal a beam of white divine light slowly descends into your heart filling you with beautiful green emerald light. As the light fills all your heart you now see the Archangel Raphael’s emerald light radiating from your heart sending its beams of healing love towards all those who are in need. See the healing green and white lights swirling outwardly, radiating toward others. Visualize and see all survivors, adults and children, being showered with the white light and their hearts blessed with the healing and loving emerald light, you see that all healers, doctors, service workers and all individuals are being blessed with the white light and are supported with strength, power and angelic guidance to provide support and healing.

We pray and send healing light to all souls that have passed on and have been carried and comforted by their Angels and loved ones and are now in a place of peace, love, and in the company of God and Angels and all Light beings. We pray and send healing light to all those who grieve so they may find calmness and consolation. We pray and send healing and blessings of light to all Earth Angels, that can provide help and support and be of service at this time.

Now we give thanks to God and the Angels for the blessings of love, comfort, peace and healings received. And so it is. Amen.

You can also use pieces of this meditation as a Prayer. Every Prayer counts.

Angel Blessings,

What Is Civilization Are Collectively Human Race Becoming More And More Cruel


What Is Civilization Are Collectively Human Race Becoming More And More Cruel Image
if you follow news, two events in the the last few days might have caught your attention. one is from US, another from a far away foreign land, but with a very familiar name, Iraq. i quote from the news sources:

1. Cruelties that defy belief an ubiquitous phenomena for farm raised animal

A shocking undercover investigation by The Humane Society of the United States reveals widespread mistreatment and rampant animal cruelty of "downed" dairy cows at a Southern California slaughter plant.

Video evidence obtained by an HSUS investigator shows slaughter plant workers displaying complete disregard for the pain and misery they inflicted as they repeatedly attempted to force "downed" animals onto their feet and into the human food chain. In the video, workers are seen kicking cows, ramming them with the blades of a forklift, jabbing them in the eyes, applying painful electrical shocks and even torturing them with a hose and water in attempts to force sick or injured animals to walk to slaughter.

"This torture is right out of the waterboarding manual. To see the extreme cruelties shown in The HSUS video challenges comprehension" said Wayne Pacelle, president and CEO of The HSUS. "The attempt was to make them so distressed, to cause them so much suffering that these animals would get up and walk into the slaughterhouse,". credit

2. Mentally ill women strapped with bomb Why media call it suicide bombing, then?

The first blast brought news Baghdad had heard before: A bomber had hit a popular pet market that had suffered through such attacks in the past. Then came news of a second bomb at a bird market. But there was still one more possibly ugly twist to Friday's carnage: Iraqi officials said the bombs were carried by two mentally disabled women who were possibly used as unwitting bombers. "Somebody" strapped a pair of mentally retarded women with explosives and blew them up by remote control killing close to 100 people.

Local officials believe mobile phones were used to remotely-detonate the bombs attached to the two mentally disabled women. While astonishingly brutal, the use of the mentally disabled in suicide bombings is not unprecedented in Iraq. In January 2005, Iraq's interior minister said that insurgents used a disabled child in a suicide attacker on election day. Police at the scene of the bombing said the child appeared to have Down syndrome. Police said the woman wearing the bomb was known to locals as "the crazy lady." reference 1, 2, 3, 4

i don't get how media after getting confirmation that these two women were mentally ill, and were strapped bomb by others potential benefactor, media kept posting it as suicide bombing. no wonder terrorism is sometime called error-ism, we got serious problem with bunch of terminologies here.

3. Collectively are we becoming more and more cruel?

"Cruel" \ Disposed to give pain to others; willing or pleased to hurt, torment, or afflict; destitute of sympathetic kindness and pity; savage; inhuman; hard-hearted; merciless. [1913 Webster]

when i read and heard in news those two incidents i was thinking two example from west and east of this planet equally speak about human cruelty in our modern day; one applied to animal, another to human being (ironic it might sound, but the bombing in Iraq was at an animal market as well to kill innocent civilians).

across the globe, the way we raise animals in the poultry industry is so unethical, so cruel - its not just a separate incident back here in southern california. in the same fashion the chickens, the porks, cows, lambs are abused indiscriminately when they are raised in a closed environment with disproportionate number to feed those disproportionately grown food chains macdonalds, burger king and what not. the very phenomena of imbalanced consumerism and glorified greed is giving rise to all sorts of cruel treatment for the cause of more and more consumption. result? the huge obesity problem, all sorts of cancer from toxins from these abused animal meat, pre-mature death because of heart attack, blood pressure, you name it. whats the use of so much collective human knowledge if we don't really know the basic of how to eat and what to eat!

awareness better be raised to show the real nature of firm raised animal conditions. it is really recommended to reduce animal meat consumption and whenever possible to consume jewish kosher and / or muslim halal meat which are produced under strict guideline which respect animal rights and decent handling of the process. also be mindful that mass animal raising and handling, by its very nature is going to create cruelty and unethical treatment of these poor animals and consequently will affect human health via what we intake. alternatively its far more better to go for vegetarian diet than eating such meat full of toxin hormones and chemicals. its worth noting here the wisdom of sufi master, Bawa's explanation and recommendation on vegetarianism: Read here. also, more read vegetarianism and sufism, vegetarianism and spirituality.

back to the iraq bombing issue, the bombing using two mentally ill women in iraq was something which is beyond words really. i mean what kind of barbarity is that! honestly, i never get any kind of rationality on so called suicide bombing and i have serious reservation to link it to both suicide and also to religious ideology. there is something else here. call it conspiracy theory or anything else, suicide bombing as it is portrayed in the media, is hard to buy.

with all these so called suicide bombing saga, often time it came to my mind that there are some sort of brain washing mechanism going on. how can people kill innocent civilians of own land by blowing themselves up claiming it as religious or patriotic, no matter what sort of religious or otherwise sick motivations are used! the uncovering of the fact that these two women were mentally ill (because the local people knew them as crazy ladies, else i am sure they would be portrayed as some-Qaeda members etc.) deepens the suspicion that other so called suicide bombers might well be under some sort of brain damaged / brain controlled mechanism.

it is so beyond sickness i really don't give a damn who operate such operations, what they look like, which political ideology they serve, who benefits from it, creating more chaos in that part of the world give more advantage to who to keep military presence to channel more oil... it doesn't really bother me. anyhow we are destroying our planet, anyhow we are destroying us as human species, over consuming our planets resources, limiting more and more our chance to survive on this beautiful blue - green planet floating in the middle of our known universe created just right to be pregnant with infinite diversity of life!

what really concern me is where and what is civilization then!? in this great achievements (!) of twenty first century are we, collectively human race becoming more and more cruel to ourselves and to life in general?! who is gonna whisper to the ears of human race to remind that every life is sacred beyond imagination? that every life is unbelievably part of this sacred Oneness?!

"For that cause the Divine Oneness decreed for the Children of Israel that whosoever killeth a human being for other than manslaughter or corruption in the earth, it shall be as if he had killed all mankind, and whoso saveth the life of one, it shall be as if he had saved the life of all mankind". - Quran, the Final Testament 5:32

"IT is the Divine Who did create you from a Single Essence..."

- Quran 7:189

Magick 07 Basic Ritual


Magick 07 Basic Ritual Cover
'The first part of every ceremony is the banishing; the second the invoking.' (--Crowley, Magick, p. 104)

It may be said that ritual is the very heart of magick. For it is through ritual that we achieve our magical results. Ritual is a magical procedure or ceremony we perform in order to change the environment. Usually we think of ritual as bearing on active magick, although certainly, it can also affect passive magick. Most often the change achieved is subjective (it may be subtle) and in the physical world. Outsiders may put them down to coincidence, but the effects are very real. Magical goals for a ritual should not be taken lightly.

The successful practice of magick depends upon strong belief. The simplest ritual of them all must be belief itself. If you can believe in your desired results strongly enough, that act is a magical ritual which will achieve your results. Even a very complex ritual is no more effective than strong belief. There are aids to concentration which may help. Thus in *creative visualization*, imagination and controlled breathing are brought into play.

Creative Visualization

When you want to magically achieve something, first picture it clearly in your mind. The more definite and specific your idea of what it is the better. Picture yourself having it or doing it. Visualize it as vividly and as intensely as you can and hold it in your thoughts for a few moments. Concentrate on it intensely (it may help to hold your breath). Feel the energy of desire welling up inside you. Then suddenly feel the image or desire released from your mind. Feel the energy filtering through the image and intensifying it, as if the image is a 'stencil'. Imagine the energy exploding out from you into the macrocosm in all directions at once, and feel the universe 'tilt' as it reacts to the force. (At the same time it may help to release your breath suddenly). Feel the energy draining from you. Finally, *believe* that your purpose *has* been accomplished; that it HAS HAPPENED, perhaps saying something such as "so mote it be", or "it is done".

The Basic Parts Of A Ritual

Often rituals are more formal than the above, but any full magick ritual must always reduce to these stages -- 1) imaging; 2) building; 3) firing. Sometimes a ritual must be repeated every day for a while to achieve difficult results or to overcome weak belief.

The Magick Circle

Often an important part of formal ritual is the magick circle. Medieval magicians consider-ed the circle essential, and placed great emphasis upon its exactness. Elaborate designs were invented with many layers of complex symbols and words. It was very important that the circle be completely intact with no breaks in it. The magician and any other particip-ants stand in the circle during ritual. The ritual began with a banishing of evil forces (using the lesser ritual of the pentagram for example) to keep them outside the circle.
Today, circles are made on the floor with chalk or paint, rock salt, or a rope. Whatever its form, the circle is still an important part of magical protection for the magician. This is especially important for aversive entities and purposes. The circle also helps in focusing the energy of the ritual toward its purpose, that is, it keeps it contained until the magician is ready to release it. Of course, the magick circle is basically only a symbol, but it may eventually be possible to supplement the circle with electronic equipment for a similar purpose. We are researching the practicality of electrostaticly charged Faraday shields.

Artificial Elemantals

An artificial elemental is useful for certain tasks: 1) invisible watcher and observer, telling you what it sees; 2) psychic guard; 3) it can be used in healing; 4) it is helpful in other ways. Ophiel calls the artificial elemental a 'familiar'. Producing your own artificial element-al is fairly easy. YOU MUST ASSUME THAT THE ACT HAS PRODUCED RESULTS, EVEN IF YOU DO NOT IMMEDIATELY OBSERVE THEM. It is entirely possible to prod-uce one of these little beasties and not know it (not being clairvoyant enough to observe it directly). Therefore, and this is a general principle of any magick, never ignore forces you have set into motion. Even though you may not see the elemental, you may nevertheless 'feel' it.

WARNING-Do not use artificial elementals for any kind of aversive magick at this point; they can be nasty little critters to get rid of. Should you have to eliminate one of them which you created in error, you must re-absorb it back into yourself through your will; or in some cases you can 'exorcise' it.

How To Create An Artificial Elemental

You can create your own artificial elemental for various purposes. An artificial elemental is basically a thoughtform which has been strengthened with emotion. Refer to the aura color chart in the previous lesson and decide what color to make the elemental, based upon your intended purpose. Apple green is a good choice for general purposes. Then decide on a shape or outline. Do you want your elemental to resemble some sort of animal? A simple circle or cloud is a good place to start. With this in mind you can use ritual to create your elemental. Creative visualization is good for this. Visualize it glowing before you. A darkened room is helpful for this.

Communicate with your elemental with telepathy, by talking to it, or with creative visualiz-ation. Your artificial elemental is closely linked to you and your subconscious attitudes. It will generally not do things you think it cannot do. As in any magick, results relate to effort and belief. Another way of looking at an artificial elemental is as an aspect of your perso-nality (sub personality) which has been detached from you.

Invocation

Formal ritual usually involves the invocation (ritually calling up) of a god or goddess, spirit, or other entity. In this sense, magick is somewhat similar to pagan religion and witchcraft. However, we consider magick ritual a technique, not a religion. Worship need not be involved. Sometimes the invocation of an entity creates an artificial elemental. Crowley says there are three different kinds of invocation.

1) Devotion to the entity (as in the Bhakti yoga of the Hare Krishna sect; the Faustian devil pact).
2) Ceremonial invocation -- usual method of the middle ages.
3) Drama -- usually needs more than one person (as in a mass).

Because of the microcosm-macrocosm identity, when you invoke the gods, you are invok-ing aspects of yourself. Jung has referred to the gods as primitive archetypes. This makes it sound like spiritual entities are illusions. But in fact the microcosm-macrocosm identity does not discredit the gods and goddesses. It instead helps to illustrate our relationship to the cosmos.

>>CAUTIONS<<

1. Balance is important in magick. Vary the entities invoked in order to keep your person-ality in balance.

2. Often as not a ritual may produce side-effects, usually something similar to, though not exactly the desired goal. If the true goal is delayed (as sometimes happens) we may see the side effects first. And if for some reason the goal is not achieved at all ('missing the target') the side effects may be pronounced.

Examples:

You use magick ritual to hurry shipment of an anticipated package in the mail. Side effect -- the next day an unexpected package (the wrong one) arrives instead.
You use magick ritual to cause a certain person to phone you. Side effect -- for several days all sorts of people phone you...The sides effects will not affect you (or anyone else) adversely unless that is what you inwardly want.
3. We may say with certainty that "something always happens" when we perform a magick ritual. But like everything else, magick follows the 'law of results'. This means that results require effort of some kind. And if you don't work hard enough at it you don't get results.

Difficult goals have greater resistance (magical inertia) to overcome. If the ritual doesn't produce the desired results there is a good chance that the reason for the failure is within ourselves. Be certain there is no contradiction between your model and your magical goals. Sometimes self doubt and mental contradictions (wanting and not wanting at the same time) may interfere. The first step in magick is to re-program your model. And, of course you can help your magical results by working on the physical level toward your
goals. Don't expect them to fall into your lap by themselves.

4) A peculiar quality of magick is time displacement. Results of a ritual are not usually instantaneous. There is often a delay of 12 hours or more. Difficult tasks or weakly performed ritual are more likely to be delayed. In most cases a slight delay is alright, and it gives us time to get used to the coming changes. And sometimes the effects of a ritual appear to extend to before the ritual was performed!

5) Because of the way magick works, a ritual may create an emphasis in what is sought, and a de-emphasis in everything else. Balance is therefore important here. Once the magical result is achieved it may be 'bound' to you and difficult to get rid of should you later decide to do so.

Example: You use a magick ritual to help you find and buy a new house. Years later when you decide to sell it, you are unable to do so. Consider your magical goals wisely so you don't get stuck with something you don't really want. Note that theory says you can always unbind through ritual what was bound to you...theory says.

6) Sometimes the environment appears to react against the magick after the results are achieved. This is particularly noticeable in using magick to affect the weather (and the main reason why you should NOT use magick to affect the weather). For example...Your performance of a ritual to produce a sunny day produces a sunny day. The next day is sunny, alright, but the rest of the month is cold and overcast. Here the weather seems to react to the magick in the opposite way to re-establish its natural balance. It is something like pushing a pendulum to one side and releasing it -- the pendulum swings to the other side. To quote Emmerson -- "For everything you gain you lose something...". I don't know that this is always true in magick, but it does illustrate the point. And another reason not to use magick to affect the weather is that it might foul it up in other parts of the country (world??).

7) Finally, magick ritual (or any magick or occultism) is very dangerous for the mentally unstable. If you should somehow 'get out too far', eat 'heavy foods' as previously discuss-ed (lesson on chakras) and use your religious background or old belief system for support. But remember too, that weird experiences are not necessarily bad experiences.

Magick 10 Cabala


Magick 10 Cabala Cover
Western magick is based upon the Cabala, a Jewish mystical tradition first written down in 12th and 13th century southern France and Spain. It was oral before that; and it contains the "lost" knowledge of the ancients, possibly going back to Egypt and before. The most important Cabalistic books are SEPHIR YETZIRAH (The Book of Creation), and the ZOHAR (Book of Splendor). Through Cabalistic philosophy we are able to classify and "pigeon-hole" all of existence.

The four worlds are recognized in the Cabala, but they are given Hebrew names. Thus -- Assiah, physical; Yetzirah, astral; Briah, mental; and Atziluth, spiritual; as shown in the chart.

World: spiritual
Name: Atziluth
Meaning: Archetypal World
Attribute: pure deity

World: mental
Name: Briah
Meaning: Creative World
Attribute: archangels

World: astral
Name: Yetzirah
Meaning: Formative World
Attribute: angels

World: physical
Name: Assiah
Meaning: Material World
Attribute: action

The divine name of God is TETRAGRAMMATON (or name of four letters) made from the Hebrew letters YOD HE VAU HE (English YHVH). Of the four letters, YOD corresponds with Atziluth and the element of fire; the first HE corresponds with Briah and water. These first two letters make up a yang-yin pair (respectively). The other two letters also form a yang-yin pair (respectively), with the VAU corresponding with Yetzirah and air; while the second HE corresponds with Assiah and the element of earth.

The Cabalistic parts of the soul use new names for the three highest vehicles of consciousness. NESHAMAH (Divine Soul) is the Spiritual body; RUAH (Moral Soul) is the Mental body; and NEFESH (Animal Soul) is the Astral body.

An important attribute of the Cabala is the SEFIROTICTREE (or "Tree of Life", Otz Chieem). The Sefirotic Tree is a diagram of the universe made up of the ten SEFIROTH (primal numbers or orders of creation) drawn as circles upon the Tree in a descending pattern from the highest aspect of God at the top to the most physical aspect of our world at the bottom. As can be seen in the accompanying diagram, the sefiroth are connected together with numbered lines, called paths.

Above the Tree is the infinite void-- the unknowable, unmanifest God as Divine Light -- the three veils of negative existence: Ain, Ain Sof, and Ain Sof Aur. The Divine Light (Ain Sof Aur) is made manifest by the first sefira where it is transformed into positive existence. Emanations of energy (magical current) flow from the first sefira (Source) along the paths into other sefiroth which transform and emanate to lower and lower sefiroth. In Adam Kadman (primal or ideal man) the sefiroth fit upon the physical body; note the similarity to the chakras. The process of creation is one of emanation from the spiritual at the top of the Tree to the physical world (Sink) at the bottom. All current which is Sourced into the Tree must also be Sinked (earthed). That is, magical energy set in motion by ritual should be used up in the physical world whether or not the ritual was a success.

Sefiroth1, 2,and 3on the Tree form the Supernal Triangle which is beyond normal human experience in the world of Atziluth. The first sefira, KETHER, is the supreme *crown* of God; it signifies pure Being, and is the Source. Kether is androgynous. Immediately arising from Kether are two further emanations. The second sefira is HOKMAH, the *wisdom* of God and the masculine force of the universe. Third is BINAH, the *under-standing* or intelligence of God; this is the supernal mother.

Between the Supernals and the other seven sefiroth is the Abyss -- a great gulf which forever separates ideal from actual. Within the Abyss an 11th sefira, DAATH, the *knowledge* of God is sometimes placed.

The second triangle, comprised of the 4th, 5th, and 6th sefiroth in the world of Briah, is sometimes called the Mental Triangle. Sefira 4, HESED, the *love* or mercy of God, is male and positive. The 5th sefira, GEVURAH, the power or *strength* of God complements Hesed as justice. Sixth is TIFARETH, as the compassion or *beauty* of God; the heart of the universe.

The third or Astral Triangle contains sefiroth 7, 8,and 9 in Yetzirah. Sefira 7, NETSAH, is the lasting endurance or *victory* of God. Complementing Netsah is 8, HOD, the majesty or *splendor* of God. The 9th Sefira, YESOD, the *foundation* of the world, is linked with the moon, hence the tides and the libido. Yesod is experienced as dream consciousness, and is very important in magick and astral projection.

Finally, at the physical world of Assiah is the10th Sefira, MALKUTH, the *kindgom* of God, and the basis of all material creation. We experience Malkuth as sense consciousness.

The Sefirotic Tree has three vertical columns or *pillars*. As you face the tree, the pillar on the right, headed by Hokmah and ending with Netsah, is called the Pillar of Mercy and has light/masculine (yang) qualities. The pillar on the left, headed by Binah and ending with Hod, is the Pillar of Severity with dark/feminine (yin) qualities. The Middle Pillar between them equilibrates the two opposites, and is the *Shekhinah*, or feminine counterpart of God. The *klippoth*, or evil demons, generally in Assiah, represent unbalanced forces or excesses.

All the attributes of the universe fit like pieces of a puzzle upon the Sefirotic Tree. Each numbered part is a numeric key to the various correspondence tables, such as Crowley's '777'. The sefirotic tree has its parts variously colored and each sefira has a color; in fact the paths which run between the sefiroth have their own colors too. There are four major color scales for the sefirotic tree and each color scale corresponds with one of the four worlds. That means we are dealing with not just one sefirotic tree, but
actually with a separate tree for each of the four worlds; although it is easier to think of it as the same tree with a different color scale. The Queen (Briah) and King (Atziluth) scales are the most important. There is also the Empress scale (Assiah), and the Emperor scale (Yetzirah).

The Queen and King scales for the sefiroth are shown below. (Note that when 4 colors are listed together, the sefira is divided into quarters and the first color is assigned to the upper quarter, the 2nd color to the right quarter, the 3rd color to the left quarter, and the last color to the lower quarter.)

The 22 paths connect the sefiroth together. These paths correspond with the 22 letters of the Hebrew alphabet, as based upon the SEFIR YETZIRAH. Due to the nature of the Hebrew alphabet (some letters can take two forms) SEFIR YETZIRAH divides each of two of the letters into two (dual) parts. For this reason, it is necessary to divide each of the two related paths into two (dual) parts. These are numbered 31, 31b (bisected); 32, 32b. Yet when these paths are drawn on the sefirotic tree they are usually shown undivided (and numbered simply 31, and 32). The following table shows the colors and location of the paths in relation to the sefiroth. You will want to add the path numbers to the illustration of the sefirotic tree, or draw a new tree. Some writers may refer to "32 paths", by
calling the sefiroth "paths" 1-10.

The queen and king scales are complementary. Also complementary are the paths and the sefiroth. Traditional use of the queen scale sefiroth will find the king scale as paths and vice versa. The use of complementary scales is based upon the idea of balance. A tree composed of sefiroth in the queen scale and paths in the king scale is all you need for most magick. Although correspondences are what work for you, there is said to be an ancient tradition surrounding the conventional color scales and it may be helpful to lock into the energy associated with them.

From the magical point of view, the Tree of Life is a map of consciousness which is useful for understanding and attaining various states of consciousness. In cabalistic magick we are concerned with the linking of higher energy to lower levels on the tree. That very thing takes place naturally as well, in nature and in life. A subject in itself is cabalistic meditation (pathwork, or the way of return), in which we attempt to climb up the tree (ladder of lights) to attain union with divinity.

What Is Magick


What Is Magick Cover
After being asked by several friends as to what magic, I've decided to try and define what it is. No please bear in mind that this is my own personal definition, and may or may not be shared by other witches.

Magic to me, is a way to make things happen. I realize that is a pretty sloppy definition, but let me try and explain it further. If you have ever looked at a tarot deck, you see pictures and you have some sort of rudimentary knowledge as to what each card means.
This is in a fashion how magic itself works. It is a way that the witch can bring into being entities which exist around us, on this plain and on other plans, by using the hidden energies around. I call it hidden energy because even witches do not know of all the
energy that surrounds us. Magic is a method of getting a job done, not so much a tool, as it might sound. We really become to the tool for the magic. By using symbols, we bring into being these energies, and the energy manifests itself within us all. There are
two poles, just like with positive and negative, male and female, like and unlike. This power that I speak of propels the universe and the world in which we live. Witches believe in two forms of energy. That which manifests itself in the male, and that which
manifests itself in the female. Or the God and goddess principle, it is these two forces in which we operate. That is why you will hear of both male and female witches, as one cannot exists without the other.

Magic also manifests itself in many forms, many forms of "good" and many forms of "bad". I put the words good and bad within quotes as that is really in your own definition, I don't mean it necessarily for people worshiping the Wiccan gods and godesses as opposed to
satan or set. Good magic is all up to your interpretation. Love spells by some can be called bad, and by some be called good. Magic doesn't always come from external, in fact often in never leaves your own body. Like in the middle pillar ritual where the witch seeks to walk the middle path, or more over, the balanced path. This is all done within, and is the first and foremost important on the wiccan path.

It is important to understand what magic is, in order to preform it with the desired results. For magic truely emerges from within, and not from without. Witches use the energy stream that flow around us on a daily bases, but any witch would be quick to admit that the true "power" starts within.

In short magic comes in two forms, internal and external magic. That is, you need the internal magic to work with the external magic. By external magic, I mean to tap into the other energy sources, as really magic is a form of energy. Spells, are devised to increase ones own magic, by bringing in external magic and other influences. As spells are a whole other form, they will not be covered here, nor do I want to be responsible for your own well being. If you wish to seek and discover magic or just are interested I suggest you seek out other witches that can "fill you in".

are fairly inexpensive, as is potting soil. The herbs themselves were only $2
each.
