Re: Anger
When carried by any emotion things become more intense... Emotion is, after all, e(nergy-in-)motion. But I don't cast in anger for the same reason I try not to make rash decisions or run my mouth off when angry - the likelyhood of being driven by my anger into doing foolish and regrettable things - ...

Re: Making an altar table, advice.
I sadly lack the skill, tools and space for dedicated carpentry, however here is one of my more recent upcycling projects. It was an old occasional table with a dropleaf top (two wings) - you spin the top to put it up. The leafs had started falling apart due to water damage (it has been left outside...

Re: Why a Year and a Day?
Indeed. I am a 'Robinson', a name which is said in antiquity (pre reliable contreception) to be derived from 'Robin Goodfellow' - children concieved, often during festival excess, in lust or passion, yet not in matrimony. The lunar year is of course ancient and was easily kept by the many people who...

Re: Anyone else getting "spellfever?"
*continuing on the tact of grounding energy (which is excellent advise), possibly instead of problems grounding energy you are relying too much of your own personal reserves of energy and are not raising enough energy in the first place? Energy should flow through you, not from you: like a conduit t...

Re: I Had Dream About Burning Money
Burning money can be symbolic of the fear of wasted investment (surprise, surprise) yet not necessarily a financial investment but a material investment; 'something' you have become invested in) - fear that your efforts are in vain or the pursuit is ultimately futile.

Re: Moon phase vs. day of the week for spell casting?
Coorespondances formulate in the mind but are informed by the heart - if you think something will work and your gut agrees, listen to your Intuition - it is a powerhouse. If you doubt something will work it probably won't because not all taboos and bans can be traced to logical choices (it's heart A...

One would imagine 'ghosts' are in high demand on a 'paranormal' show.

Re: Artemis and Trans women
I'm seeing the word 'scared' far too often, it's not a good mindset from which to persue something and not one anyone else can really satisfactorily reassure you about.
So listen, learn from and learn to trust your Intuition. What do you feel (as opposed to think)?
Be bold, like Artemis.

Re: Why a Year and a Day?
A year and a day, also known as 'the year and a day rule' has ancient origins and had common usage in law / establishing legal status until it was repealed in 1996. As other societal rituals also carried certain terms of limitation (handfasting perhaps?), it wouldn't be a stretch to assume that it w...

Re: Europe magical sites
I have oodles of books on sacred places and sacred sites but have only visited so many. Never forget, anywhere can be magical, especially in the artists 'magical times', the blue hours (twilight) and golden hours (post dawn and pre-sunset) or illuminated by firelight or candle light - anywhere with ...

Re: Insomnia
OK... Insomnia. Try head tapping? The general use is when you are semi-conscious, and drowsy, tap on your head the number of hours you want to sleep. You can however be crafter then that. While in that drowstly semi-lucid state, while tapping on your head state a request such as (starting simply) 'h...

Re: Insomnia
There used to be a website called 'Flames Firepit' which had thoughts and ideas that had a huge influence on me developing my early practice - sadly it seems all lost to Internet history :( Michael Howard is my unsung hero. He produced a little slim unassuming book called 'the prediction book of pra...
