Everything Under the Moon

I don't work with any Norse Deities but my fiancee does and according to her, the Norse Deities are incredibly adaptable. They do, however, demand a certain attitude in order for Them to take you seriously. You don't have to live the lifestyle the Asatru and Heathen reconstructionists say that you d...

Start with that.

Tsk, tsk, tsk... *sigh*

Chaos and randomness are known to many people very well. Actually, I reckon I spend a third of my life, chaotic. By day, I walk about making rational decisions and at least attempting to make sense and understandable. But then at night, strange things happen. I lie in stillness and chaos and entropy...

You can't if you are going to practice magick within the archaic Christian bounds. It's been said that a Christian is one who adheres to the teachings of Christ, accepts Christ as one's personal savior and recognizes Him to be the Messiah.

Do you know how to meditate?

I hate to think that he went through everything he went through only to get to the other side and go into some kind of ghost deb...

Nostalgia.

One of my earliest posts when I first joined EUTM.

DPhoenix (a member and former Mod of EUTM) once informed me she's putting together a witchcraft website and offering introductory and intermediate online course for the site. The online courses are affordable classes and each course includes: student profile, printable and downloadable course materi...

I always try to promote the idea that charms, amulets, talismans and devotional arts are deeply personal crafts and it's impossible for an outsider to help you what rituals, spells or procedures you have to do and perform in crafting them. They have meaning only to the person making them -- unl...
