Ceremonial Magic

Color Correspondences

Colors are important not only for their associations with the quarters, but for various magickal uses. Colors can be an important aid to the successful working of magick, to divining physical disease, to the interpretation of dreams, to meditation, etc., but only if you are a visually oriented person. For others, especially the blind and the color-blind, color can be totally irrelevant.

The general meanings (and magickal uses of) for the family groupings are as follows:

YELLOW: Clairvoyance, Divination, Studying, Learning, The Mind
ORANGE: Strength, Authority, Attraction, Luck
RED: Sexual Love, Passion, Energy, Enthusiasm, Courage
PINK: Emotional Love, Friendships
BLUE: Healing, Meditation, Tranquility
GREEN: Healing, Money, Prosperity, Luck, Fertility
WHITE: Protection, Purity, Truth, Blessings, Silence, Realization
BROWN: Physical Objects, Healing of Animals, House and Home
BLACK: Absorption/Destruction of Negativity, Removal of Hexes, Hatred, Evil
PURPLE: Power, Healing Deadly Diseases

The color wheel really has no hard divisions between colors and in nature colors blend subtly from one "family" to another. Therefore:

The Charm Of The Worlds

In the work of trance and contemplation that I call the Nineteen Working, the student is led through a series of visualizations meant to progressively create the Pagan cosmos model in and around the meditating Druid. Inside that vision the Druid then expands awareness and experiences a glimpse (or more) of a sense of oneness with all manifest existence.

This practice has several goals. First it opens and harmonizes the individual mind, providing a sense of scale concerning the individual and the cosmos. Second it allows the human magician to experience a bit of the awareness with which the Gods see the worlds - the non-local oceanic experience of existence. In practical work with spirits, my opinion is that being able to produce this state, and drawing the spirits into it, creates a sense of awe and authority for the magician. When the magician can produce in herself the sort of Unity that defines the awareness of the Gods, she gains status and power among the spirits.

If you have been working the Nineteen Working regularly, you will be growing more and more adept at producing this expanded awareness. As with most spiritual practices, that which has been learned in a 'long form' can then be worked in a shorter form, in which the entire work is recapitulated in a convenient, focused exercise.

The target state could be described in a trance such that below. I don't know whether I'd recite the description aloud - it's rather redundant with the charm. I prefer to simply establish the state through memory and trance, and then affirm/confirm it with the charm. Here's the set:

"I am seated in the Center of Worlds, and my Da Fein is enshrined in my heart. I am like the World Tree, with my roots in the Underworld and my branches in the Heavens. The Waters and the Light flow through me and shine in me. Around me are arrayed the Three Realms - Land, Sea and Sky, and these, and the heavens and the deeps, and even my own Da Fein are all made of the Nine Elements, the flesh of the Mother of All. Into this all-pattern, I extend my awareness. As I am aware of my face, I am aware of the lights of the sky. As I am aware of my flesh and bone, of the beating of my blood, I am aware of the stone and soil and sea. As I am aware of my breath, I am aware of the wind. My mind stops paying attention to my little shape of flesh, as my spirit opens into the greater Worlds of which I am merely a small part. As my awareness expands, my attention leaves my body, and I say: "

The Worlds are in me, and I am in the Worlds
The Spirit in me is the Spirit in the worlds.
I am One with the World Tree, in the Sacred Center.
With the Two Powers in me
With the Three Realms surrounding me,
And the Cauldron of Wonder within me.
I reach into the Four Airts in wisdom and magic, strength and life
And my substance is the very substance of the worlds,
Nine things in one, and one thing in many.
The Worlds are in me, and I am in the Worlds
The Spirit in me is the Spirit in the worlds.
