Everything Under the Moon

Mine is bought from an op-shop. It has brown hand-made paper inside and a leather hole-punch style binding in deep purple. However, it has Chinese characters on the front and a portrait of some war leader (?) but beggars can't be choosers, I suppose.

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 numbers...

Hi everyone, I was wondering if anyone had any tips for getting in touch with the water element? I am an emotional person, and I find it easy to be in touch with my feelings. However, I lack faith. In particular, faith in the Craft and paganism in general, since I was previously athiest. I simply ne...

Merry meet, everyone! While I'm working on my magickal pyramid/power base (focusing on one of the elements for a few days to build magickal will) I find it helpful to focus on each element in a physical, tangible way. One of these ways is to cook a recipe using particular ingredients that correspon...

Hi there everyone! I was curious to what everyone thought about wicca's relationship with the LGBT+ community, since wicca in itself is inherently based on male/female relationships, gender/sex and fertility. (This conversation will include talk of genitals, sex and some controversial issues, so ple...

I seem to be on the same lines with you. I developed my pagan views from a scientific standpoint. I watch the seasons and understand that it arises from the earth and sun moving together, and how those movements affect us (and the moons movements). I view magic as just the intent to change our mind...

I wasn't sure if this is the right thread to post this in but basically I have zero confidence in any psychic or spiritual ability in myself, due to the fact I can't ground/centre or do any sort of those compulsory meditations. It just feels like I am saying "I feel the energy in me" when ...

It looks a little bit like quartz to me, but I can't really tell from the image. It seems transluscent so that's usually a sign of just a lower-grade quartz. Finding crystals in your backyard is awesome, though! :^)

I'm currently following the Witch's Primer lessons, and as part of the "power base" process it recommended moving from guided meditation to self-guided meditation. I never found guided meditation to work for me, and I'd leave feeling worse than before. However, I used a simple yoga and a t...

So, we're all familiar with the Mother/Maiden/Crone concept for the Goddess- the use of three female figures to describe the stages of life for women. Is there a male version, and if not, what is it? I think it makes sense that both genders are represented for my own path, so maybe you could conside...

Sorry for reviving an old thread, but here's my two cents- The maiden/mother/crone I never felt was about sex. Well, sex was a big part of it but it was more about how the traits and strengths/weaknesses of each. Maiden- Perceptive, emotional, forgiving, healthy, attractive, attentive etc. Mother (I...

I was curious about wiccan clothing, not only traditionally but also your personal or path-specific clothing. -Do you have a special outfit or certain things you wear during rituals/spells/coven meetings/sabbat celebrations etc.? -Is there any meaning or symbolism behind your clothing? -Do you prefe...

This makes about one and a half cup lovely, sweet (and strong!) rose syrup. You could get different rose colours for different correspondences, or experiment and use different edible flowers. INGREDIENTS: A: 2 cups water, 1 1/3 sugar, 4 tablespoons of rose petals, a dash of lemon juice B: 1/2 cup of...

Thank you! I'm mulling over opal or quartz, but I'll see what I can find. :^))

Do you guys have any recommendations for stones that make good pendants for someone beginning Wicca? I would like something that would increase receptivity and allow me to pick up on the Spirit around me. Preferably something inexpensive! :lol: I have a gemstone collection that contains things like ...
