The real wizards, those who sacrifice people and worship demons in the equinox, laugh at dabblers like you.
Both of you disobey God and will end up in the same hot place, but at least they know what they are doing.

Give up this buffoonery while you still can and turn to Jesus Christ. Ask for forgiveness. Win peace for your soul.

Re: Some Practical Magick to Share on the Equinox
Thanks LS for your enlightening description. Could you elaborate a bit about knowing when the most favorable house position, day of the week, phase of the moon for your particular sign is. I'm a Leo 8.4.58.
Thanks.
Peace and Love Brother
 Quoting: ShamansDream


I should qualify this advice by saying that my knowledge of proper astrology is limited to correspondences with the Tarot and other Kabbalistic devices.

This small ritual combines some elements of intentional mediation with chaos magick (the burning of the candles with a Willed purpose), so the best thing to do is to go with your intuition.

The work of being internally aware of what calls to you and what does not call to you in the setup of any ritual is an important part of a holistic practice, so I think it is best when first starting out to learn a little bit about the different energies of the planets and constellations and how those correspond to different types of goals and practical applications in your life by listening to what your inner voice tells you, rather than focus on doctrinaire interpretations of how various bodies interact with each other.

It's often been said there is no room for dogma in magick, and I think this applies most appropriately to the initial steps taken to figure out the nature of your own internal ability, with the rather LARGE qualification that the neurotic individual will only find more to feed his or her neurosis, which is why information should be presented in such a way to dissuade the pursuit of the path by those who desire power over others, this being the primary signed of a qualified neurotic.

Thank you Least Servant hf

Have you ever done a reversing candle? If so, what "color" of magick would you consider it? i.e., white, grey, black...

My understanding of the Reversing Candle is to rid yourself of negative energy that as accumulated to allow positive energy in. It sends the (-)energy back to the originator. These are usually done on a waning moon. Curious.
 Quoting: Spazz 1001302


Well, it's on points such as these that Dr. House's opinion has some weight.

Classifying these sorts of things is largely academic, and not entirely of practical value.

Banishing, clearing, and uncrossing magick is traditionally done by pagan practitioners on waning moons, the idea being that the waning moon is good for removing unwanted energy.

Personally, I think using salt baths for clearing, a simple ritual such as the LBRP for banishing, and candles for uncrossing is a better approach than reversing magick, since most psychic attacks and negative energy come from within unresolved aspects the individual psyche, so this does little to address the root problem in most cases.

Re: Some Practical Magick to Share on the Equinox
I thought I would repost this as a new thread to share with you for the Fall Equinox.

It is possible using only a standard moon almanac, the planetary correspondences of the days of the week, a supply of basic color candles, and the time to do a focused intentional mediation to do beneficial white magick.

Internally, the basic practice is essentially the same as guided mediation. When you have something that you want to accomplish in life, or you wish to defeat a bad habit or draw a new energy towards you, find a quite place and sit either cross-legged or in a chair.

First, do a basic breathing and relaxation exercise. Close your eyes, breath deeply into the bottom of your lungs, expanding your stomach, through your nose and out through your mouth by allowing your lungs to empty from the gentle fall of your stomach. Picture a golden ball of energy moving from the base of your body up to the top of your body, everywhere it goes, your body is completely relaxed and cleansed of dis-ease (an expanded version of this is an excellent healing mediation). When it reaches your head, allow yourself a few moments to feel the relaxation in your body and to get in tune with what it's telling you everywhere.

Now, clear your mind as best you can for a few moments. If you wish, you can try to hold a single-point mediation at this point, but that's only for extra centering if you are capable and you feel it necessary. At this point, you want to start to picture the things that you need to do in life to get the desired result you want. Imagine in as vivid detail as you can all the aspects of the things you need to do to get what you Will and you see yourself accomplishing them with the necessary effort and poise, nothing is holding you back at the point of action and you are fully prepared in each moment to take course that will accomplish your objective. Notice the reaction of the people around you taking note of your poise and ability, and their willingness to of their own free will without coercion or force of any kind on your part provide you what you Will to see the end you desire.

Now, of course, what does this have to do with the moon and candles? Well, I started with the hard part, which is also the only really important part, because if you are still reading this, here is where you can get a bit of help from what magicians have known for thousands of years.

Using your own judgement, pick the best phase and house of the moon to do your mediation and also to take your first practical actions on your course to achieve that which you Will. You can also pick a time when the right phase and house of the moon fall on a day of the week which is beneficial to accomplish your aim, when these fall together in synchronization, especially on a Full or New Moon, these are the power days to do spell work. You can choose the color of your candles based on the color correspondence to the planet that rules the day of the week, or to the planet that rules the astrological sign, or both. You can also include white, gray, or blue candles for the moon, I like to do this especially with New Moon magick to give my friend some extra shine. cool2

Pick your time or times, find a spot where you are not going to be bothered, setup your candles safely, light them, and then sit relax and start with the golden ball at your feet and work your way up to what you Will to occur in life. afro

When you start combining this stuff with Tarot cards, herbs, incense blends, stones, potions, and ceremonial magick, that's when stuff gets really interesting, but anything beyond what I have given REALLY needs a divination beforehand to be done safely. The small ritual I have provided here is really white magick, since you are enacting beneficial change upon yourself, there isn't too much chance of anything going wrong, provided you remember not to poison your mind with the desire to control others.

Happy spellwork.

Interesting, thank you. The Reversing Candle was the first one I was taught in a candle class so I was wondering. I am not sure I entirely agree that negativity is singularly a personal problem so to speak...what about jealousy and envy, etc. from others?

Well, bringing in karma for a second, perhaps it could also be from a deep need for approval and feeling superior that leads one to project certain personality traits that lead others to feel jealous or envious?

I remember an anecdote relating to Nelson Mandela. He was going to be on the Oprah show, and before the show, when he spoke to Oprah in the green room, he ask her, "Oprah, who is your lead guest today?" afro

Humility.

White magick is a term made by medievil occultists to make thier form of spiritual development stand apart from the vulgar or enemy forms. There is no such thing as black magick unless you are looking at it from a monothiestic, even apologetic point of view.

You my friend need to open you spirit to all that exists in the universe and embrace all that is good and just. When we acknowledge the spirits of nature we are connecting with source energy. You can call it by what ever name you prefer but it all goes back to the source. By slinging your nonsense and using the name of the Lord as a means of justifying it has just brought to you negative energy.
Try to embrace the fact that we are all one connected people and your actions ripple out to disturb the continuity of this dimension.
Bring peace brother. LS was just trying to assist us in using the tools that the source gave us. If you feel like disconnecting from it, then create your own thread that attracts your tribe of people.
