Everything Under the Moon

I must have missed this thread from many years ago; this is such a great post, FF!

I love essential oils for aromatherapy, although I am a little too afraid to use them on skin or ingesting them. Essential oils are not regulated, so anyone can claim that they are "therapy grade" or "food grade" (or whatever), which is why I'm nervous about using them very serio...

I agree! My coven is very fond of frogs; they're our unofficial mascot. They are a powerful symbol of metamorphosis, transformation, and change.

Well said, Spirit.

Hello Sean! Interesting -- I will have to look into the The Dao of Craft . I haven't read it, so I don't know exactly how Fu sigils are supposed to work. In general, I would not recommend doing magic in a language (particularly that involving modifying characters/language) that you are not familiar ...

Congratulations on your wedding, Moonpetal! I would also suggest that there are also some other ways to get to know Aphrodite. She is not just the goddess of love, but also of pleasure and sensuality, and you can really get creative! Taking a long bubble bath filled with fragrances could be a wonder...

I would say with my intuition I am generally good. But more so in instances that do not involve me directly. Things that I have no care about, because I don't have a personal opinion either way. In those cases I am very good at having the correct feelings, but when I am personally involved it is ve...

I'm probably of a minority on this forum that doesn't believe that karma works like that. Many Westerners have interpreted karma to mean there is some kind of cosmic retribution system, where God/the Universe observes everything that we do and metes out justice accordingly. That's not to say it's no...

It's okay! You'll get back to the other space-time continuum next Daylights Savings Time!

I wrote a house cleansing ritual a while ago; it's what I use regularly!

I've seen some people use memes as a form of magic. Not always for good intents. Some Internet-created egregores have (arguably) come to life. And, like Spirit said, some emotional chain reactions have impact on the real world. The Internet is a hive mind, but of a very fickle sort.

Thanks, Beemerphill!

Healing is extremely difficult when you're still in contact with your abuser. If it's not possible to go "no contact", which is the ideal solution, then it's really important to sever your energetic bond with the abuser, which in my mind is one of the best ways to get your revenge, while a...

I'm surprised no one's posted on it yet -- what an interesting topic! I remember reading some very dated books (at this point, anyways) about "cyber witchcraft", which was mostly like, "Spells to enchant your floppy disks!" There really isn't much out there at the moment. Certain...

The runic alphabets are also fairly commonly used by witches. Elder Futhark is a great one to begin with.
