Re: Synesthesia in Paganism

Hi everyone, I was curious about your views on synesthesia and its link with Paganism. Basically, synesthesia is a fairly common trait where a person attributes one sense/sensation to another. For example, someone might "taste numbers" or "smell colours". Since colour and number...

Re: Gardnerian influenced deck?

I'm ok with the GD system myself, so there could be something out there I don't know about. That said, I only use the majors for divination anyway, if you can't find anything, maybe that'll work for you? I wouldn't give up just yet, but I thought I'd offer an alternative. I've also got an Order meet...

Re: The 4 directions: How to use it in spells and rituals

The line "hail to the guardians of the WATCHTOWERS of the (direction) comes from ceremonial magic, and more specifically Enochian. They're specifically angels. Not exactly sweetness and light, but the "guardians of the watchtowers" do refer to specific beings. I wouldn't worry about i...

Re: Vegetarianism/Veganism/Animal Rights

As for using animals for tests, I don't think anyone can justify it or make it right in any way. First of all, most animals are too different to humans to be certain about the tests, which makes them pointless anyway. Second, I like animals more than most people, so I say, try cosmetics and other t...

Re: Vegetarianism/Veganism/Animal Rights

Ok, here goes. Personally, eating meat and animal testing are 2 different areas. I'll deal with eating meat first. As a species, we were created with eating meat in mind. Our teeth, our gut, our structure all were designed with eating meat in mind. For me, not eating meat is more unnatural. I unders...

Re: Communicating with a certain spirit.

You could try an evocation. The trick with that is to remove the commanding and compelling stuff, as a departed spirit needs to be treated differently than the types of things one usually evokes, without removing the safeguards. Shamanic journeying is probably a better way to go, but just in case I ...

Re: Suggestions for Low Budget Witchcraft

@dream have you tried the LBRP? If that's helping, I'd suggest adding the Middle Pillar to it.
@MsMollimizz I could use that if you don't mind, you could pm me so we don't sideline the thread

Re: experiences with shattuckite, the stone of communication

The stones are using the Internet now? I shouldn't be surprised. The Element of Earth connects and grounds us all. Why shouldn't rocks, minerals, and crystals use technology to help us? It's communication. Snow Most technology is based on, and contains crystals. Working with technology directly is ...

Re: How to turn bad mouth in good?

I know of a popular method that helps stop people from speaking ill of you. Take a piece of paper and write the offender's name on it. Place the paper in a leak proof container and fill the container with water. Place the container in the freezer and forget about it. The effect is to freeze the gos...

Re: Any "Christian Witches" On This Forum?

I'm not exactly a Christian Witch, but there are some similarities there with what I do. I work magick within a Jewish/Christian framework, although that has had to be loosely defined in my case.

Re: Spell Reversal

It happens sometimes. Personally, I wouldn't worry about it. For things like this, it comes down to what you believe. I'd say if you relit it, and apologized, you'll be fine.
