Spirit Conjuration Philosophy (full new blog post on Website) ~ Blade & Broom offers Spirit Conjuration as one of the services in our shop. For #TheurgyThursday , let's talk a little about our Philosophy behind that. . First off, I see this as a matchmaking service between Spirits with bodies and Spirits without bodies. I offer this service to folks who feel unsure about their own ability to connect with a Spirit due to lack of training/experience. I'm just as happy to help you learn this art for yourself. . Next, I want work from a model of magic that views Spirits as sentient beings with individual wills, desires, abilities, and "lives." We mortals (if indeed we ARE mortal) are spiritual beings having a human experience. We are astral and eternal beings who have chosen to incarnate as physical beings. The spirits we draw into our lives are not unlike us, except that they have chosen (or can't for some reason) take an incarnate form. . I don't believe that spirit torture or spirit slavery are ethical practices, and I'm dismayed at the number of spirits being conjured and kept in unethical ways by otherwise good and ethical people. My Spirit Tribe and I here to show another way. (And we are willing to teach you, if you want to learn to do this for yourself.) . There are hundreds of SPIRITS WHO ACTIVELY DESIRE TO WORK WITH YOU!! We know how to bring you into a close bond with these spirits without sacrificing your integrity, or theirs. We never force a spirit to serve a keeper, as we have seen done in many magical traditions. . It is my hope to diminsh fear on behalf of those new or unsure about spirit conjuring and keeping. I have seen a great many people who are tentative in their efforts and pay truly outrageous amounts of money to sorcerers who promote a message of fear (ie "you are not strong enough to keep this spirit" or "only I can do this work for you" and even "you will be unhappy/unsafe/unstable without this spell or charm or spirit"). I want people to know that they have the ability themselves, with study and fortitude, to do this work.

Seeking a Magical Education (full blog entry at bladeandbroom.com) ~ If you are interested in learning how to do this work for yourself, you can either study independently or with a teacher. (I happen to be an excellent teacher — having been a professional educator for many years.) All prospective students ought to know what to look for in a program. . Wherever you study, your #magicalstudies should include: . 1. Grounding and Centering — The magician is the center of her own Universe, and from a place of balance she can control the elements of Earth, Air, Fire, Water, and Spirit. . 2. Sensing, Raising, and Moving Energy — The magician should be able to sense, generate, and control the flow of the energies listed above. . 3. Shielding — You don’t want to be bombarded or bothered by these energies, so you must know how to shield from them. . 4. Invoking and Evoking — All effective magicians must know how to call energy and spirits into their presence and into their bodies to accomplish their work. . 5. Banishing — If you call it, you need to know how to get rid of it. Whether you prefer sage smudge or the Star Ruby (a ceremonial banishing using ancient Greek language), you must be able to rid yourself of unwanted Spirits. . 6. Laws of Magic — A sorceress can’t function properly without a basic understanding of the way magic works. . 7. Psychism, Divination, and Spirit Communication — This will give you some tools to communicate with the Unseen World of Spirits. . 8. Ethics — You must know where your ethical boundaries are. . I think it's worth noting that the above list is only aimed at the "science" of magick/Craft. I've left religion and faith out of this particular list, but that might not be the way you prefer to learn your magick. You might want the rich symbolic heritage and potent mysticism of a particular religious tradition to inform your magick. If you decide to study with me, we can work that in. (It's how I work best, too.) . #magicalteaching #magic #magicallifecoaching #sorcery #witchcraft #learningwitchcraft #witchesofinstagram

An introduction

For 22 years, I’ve walked the path. That of the Witch, the Seer, the Wanderer, the Student. Through the seen and the unseen, I’ve witnessed many things transpire in my journey. Some good, some not so good. I’ve watched as blatantly false information has been given to those wishing to learn, by those who claim a title that they wear for show. You can’t just make things up as you go along. Doing so creates Witches who are weak. Who stay lost on a path and never truly find their way.

For a long time, I’ve wondered what I could do, to help those new to the craft LEARN the craft.I was shown the way quite some time ago. It was only recently, with another query, that I sat down and took a long, hard look at the signs. I have finally decided to do what needs to be done. It’s time to teach, to heal, to guide those on the path to their truth. To offer the things I have learned to those who wish to find it for themselves..

Witchcraft is not pretty, at times. It’s not easy. It takes dedication to learning and yourself. It takes blood, sweat & tears. What good is it to learn & never use that knowledge? It’s Witchcraft, it requires practice to hone that craft. It’s time for me to do what needs to be done.

Over the next several days, I will begin filling this blog with the things that have been shown to be over the last several months. I will begin offering services for the new practitioner and the seasoned, after the coming weekend as I will be away with my chosen family. It will take time to bring all the things to fruition that the divine has inspired me to offer and a viewership for them. I’m ready Universe. Let’s do this!!
