Re: Possibly a christian lie
Basically, pretty much every religion likes to view itself as the embodiment of all that is good and true, believing that without it in our world to show us the way, we'd all be inbred psychopaths or something. And it is the nature of people, keeping in line with the concept of duality that we are p...

Re: Thoughts on the Threefold Law/Law of Return
I believe that there is a law of return as far as our souls and spirituality is concerned... by that I mean that I believe we all learn lessons through life and face challenges and the better we are at dealing with those challenges and the more we grow from them; the more spiritually rich our soul b...

Re: Possibly a christian lie
Yes, users like this often disable comments. God forbid they'd be questioned, because if they were, their arguments would often start to look a bit crap.
And you know they've done their research when they mention Harry Potter in the description

Re: Your Opinions on the Rede and the Threefold Law
My problem with that article is that language evolves and beliefs change. As the article admits itself, few people see Wicca and Witchcraft entirely synonymous anymore and that is because times have changed. There was a time when all Christians were Catholic, it doesn't mean they all are now and we ...

Re: Minors into hurtful magick
Thank you for the quick responses. The child didn't actually come to me, it's a case a friend of mine has asked for guidance on. She asked me knowing that I'm a witch. Apparently the family is into Satanic Witchcraft, though this is as much detail as I have really. I think you're right Kassandra tha...

Minors into hurtful magick
If a child came to you for guidance and admitted to using harmful magick and their family doing the same, how would you deal with that. What guidance could you give them without making any assumptions about their beliefs or being judgmental so that they back away from you? How could you help someone...

Re: The tale of too many! :O
I think it's a good idea to see if the actually do any reading whether online or through books; that'll be a good indicator as to if anything will actually come from their interest. I had this sort of thing happen to me and some close friends in school too, some of them even did some spells with me,...

Re: Wiccan view
I've never been able to fully connect with any one religion, which is why I usually just refer to myself as spiritual...because religion to me has connotations of something unwavering and inflexible. Now I know that may not be the case with all religions, I am just speaking generally here. I'm also ...

Re: NEW YEARS
I'm lighting candles; tea lights. One candle for each person I love and who loves me. I'm switching the lights off and just taking in how much light those little flames are giving me. And I'll keep that light with me through to 2014.

Re: Finding a Book of Shadows
Mine is a thick black sketch book that I got from Borders. I decorated it with gold and silver paints and different coloured jewels to represent the elements.

Re: Developing Relationships with All the Elements
This is something I'm trying to develop. I've always had a natural connection to air. I've been working with fire more and have successfully done some synchronicity exercises with candle flames. I've worked with earth quite a bit and I garden a lot. Water is probably the one that needs the most time...

Re: I'm an empath, but what are my boundaries
To p3nathan how long did it take you to master your control of empathy? Well I was in a particularly bad place back then, like I said I got counselling and it took me a while to feel stable in myself. So for me it took a good couple of years before I was really in control, but I do believe that had...

A strange type of Hydromancy?
Hi guys, Yule is near, exciting... but that's not what I'm here for. I've always had different psychic abilities and been able to use divination, particularly tarot cards and crystal gazing. Recently I've been experiencing something else. When ever I'm near running water, I occasionally hear voices....
