I'm tired of telling people this. MAIN THING IF YOU DON'T HAVE A CLUE WHAT YOU ARE DOING AND DON'T KNOW HOW TO SET UP PROTECTIONS DON'T BOTHER. YOU ARE ASKING FOR HELL. okay, sometimes they are helpful for contacting spirits but issue is you are opening a doorway, that anything cam come through. 1. Make sure you have researched everything beforehand. 2. Set up as many protections as you can beforehand. 3. Have cleasning rituals ready for afterwards 4.know how to open and close the doorway. 5. Personally my opinion unless you have no other option don't use them ....

Covens

What is a coven?

A group of practitioners with like minded interests, ethics, and beliefs. They gather together to perform rituals, to connect, and to learn. They often celebrate sabbats and create their own traditions. 

Is a coven right for you?

Be cautious if you choose to join a coven, there are good ones and there are bad ones out there!

A coven helps you to grow and advance spiritually. You get to meet others with similar beliefs. They perform formal, organized rituals together. A coven strives to become a kind and caring environment for people to feel safe in.  They are a closely knit community full of people who support and help you on your path. Together they perform rituals, celebrate sabbats, and create their own traditions.

To reverse a spell

Use this spell to reverse any harmful magic. This could work to reverse the effects of a spell cast on you or someone else with malicious intent. You can also use this to reverse your own spells (although hopefully you do not use magic to harm). Needed:

A taper candle. Use one of a color that represents the spell you wish to break. For example, to break a spell cast out of hate, you could use a red candle. A spell cast out of envy could be reversed with a green candle. If you view magic as being able to be classified as light or dark, you could use a black candle.

A glass or bowl about the same height as the candle

Water

Salt

Cast a circle. Put the candle into the glass or bowl and fill it with water so that it is almost covering the candle; have the water level about a half inch to an inch below the candle’s tip. Sprinkle salt into the water around the candle and say:

With salt, this water is made pure I give it the power to heal and cure

Imagine the water and salt glowing with a bright light. Perhaps visualize sparks as the salt hits the water. Light the candle and say:

A spell was cast with baneful will A wicked web was wrongly spun I take away the harm and ill I now undo what has been done 

As the candle burns, imagine that the water is emitting positive energies that will help to reverse the spell. Let these energies build up in your circle. When the candle burns to the level of the water and sputters out, take it out of the water and hold it horizontally with both hands. Say:

This harmful spell I now negate, Return things to their rightful state! 

At the last word, break the candle in half. As if the snapping sound were a thunderclap, visualize the energy in your circle being released in a burst of bright energy like lightning, destroying the effects of the spell you are reversing. If you can, snap the candle into even smaller pieces, breaking it further, making it useless and inconsequential. Close your circle if you are not outdoors and take the bowl or glass of water and the broken candle outside. Bury the candle pieces as well as any wax that dripped into the water. Pour the water in a circle around where the candle is buried. If you are outdoors, do all this within your circle and close it when you are done.

A solitary Imbolc ritual

In temperate climates of the Northern Hemisphere where winter is coming to an end, neopagans often observe February 1st or 2nd as Imbolc and celebrate a variation of the pagan festival to honor the coming spring and the waking of the year. This Imbolc ritual is designed for the solitary eclectic and involves planting seeds, which you must care for afterward.

Needed:

An Imbolc altar setup, if desired

Spring flower seed(s)*

A flower pot and soil

A bowl of water**

Candles

Assemble your ritual space so that you are facing south. Cast a circle if desired and start, as if the perimeter had markings like a compass, from the east point (corresponding to dawn and beginnings) or southeast point (corresponding to the position of Imbolc represented on the wheel of the year). Arrange the candles in an arc around your ritual materials and light them sequentially, going from left (East) to right (West). Say:

Just as the sun will rise and fall, the seasons cycle on The grip of winter yields when comes the time for spring to dawn

Take a moment to become calm and quiet. Cup your hands around the bowl of water and use visualization to bless and purify it by imagining the water suffused with light, warmth, and any sort of energy you wish.

Then take the seeds you’ll plant and hold them in the palm of your non-dominant hand. Reflect on specific values you wish to instill in them. When you are ready to plant them, say:

The dormant Earth will waken as the young Sun thaws the cold And so, too, will these seeds fulfill the promise that they hold

Place them into the soil one by one, making sure you follow guidelines for how best to grow the kind if seeds you have. For each, affirm,

I plant this seed for… (value)

Pour the water into the soil in a circle and complete the affirmations with,

So may it be.

If you’d like to meditate at this point, take some time to do so. Then conclude the ritual work by stating:

This Imbolc day the Earth’s great turning furthers us toward spring I greet with joy the coming days and all that they will bring

End your rite.

(*Decide what to use based on your gardening skill and what you plan to do with the plant afterwards. If you want to plant it outside after it’s grown into seedling, make sure you use one that is native or naturalized in your area. If you want to keep it potted and inside, choose something that works well as a house plant. You might also opt for something other than flowers, such as herbs. Familiarize yourself with how best to care for whatever you choose.

**Assuming you perform your ritual where it is above freezing in temperature, you can opt to fill the bowl with pieces of ice or, if you have it, snow. It will melt throughout your ritual and meditation, adding further symbolism to your rite. If you think it will not melt fast enough you can add tepid water to the bowl as well.)

Candle spell to cleanse and bless a room

This spell will cleanse a room of any negative energy, and bless the room so as to fill it with positive energy. If you need to cleanse a house, each room would require one of these – they can be made together, in one room, then moved to burn down in each room. It can be done by a solitary or a coven – particularly useful if the coven contains an Earth element and a Fire element.

Ingredients:

Basil                                                      Coriander                                            Salt

Chamomile (can use tea)                      Sage                                                   Bay leaf

Rosemary                                             Sunlight                                               Vinegar

Appropriately coloured candle of an appropriate size to burn down and a bowl to burn it in

Timing:

Any sunny, appropriate day during the waning (removing impurities) or full moon (boost power)

Method:

Perform spell in a room with the curtains open so the sunlight can come in. Put the candle into a bowl, making it stand up by burning a bit of wax in. Put each of the ingredients (herbs can be fresh or dried) in a circle around the candle, breaking/cutting up those that need to be to do this. Put the vinegar (enough to just cover the other ingredients) in last. Light the candles, and charge the bowls (visualise that they are glowing with energy) while saying the following incantation:

“Basil to purify, coriander to bless,

As the candle burns, let this house become a place of peace and rest.

Aided by the powers of fire and earth,

We cleanse this house and hearth.”

Put the bowl somewhere where the candle can burn down (nowhere near flammable objects), and let it burn down. If not making use of the candle at that time (i.e. as a gift), put the flame out and just relight when needed. Once candle has burnt down, leave the bowl in the room for a few hours or until it is felt that the room has been cleansed.

You’re welcome to share this spell, but if ever you do decide to formally publish a collection of spells (I’ve seen such things in book stores XD ) please get my permission before using this specific spell. I’ll probably agree, but just in case I’ve gotten to the stage where I have my own blog/book/whatever ;)

NAME: Tracking Spells

ALSO KNOWN AS: Guide Spells

DESCRIPTION: Most magic practitioners will agree that having a tracking spell or two under their belt is invaluable. They are fairly easy to learn and conduct, and considered safe even for beginners. Someone who has been practicing magic for longer will be able to do increasingly detailed and complex tracking spells that can give them a better idea of where the object or person they’re looking for is, or help them find the right path.

COMMON SPELLS/TECHNIQUES:

Compass Spell: Using an object or some DNA that belongs to the desired person, and a compass, a magician can find whoever they’re looking for. This is done by burning the object/hair/etc over a candle while saying an incantation and channeling energy into a compass. Once the incantation has ended, the compass will point in the direction of the owner of the object. The compass reverts to its usual functionality once the person is found.

Dowsing Pendant: A necklace that can be used to find missing objects with the use of an incantation. The necklace is to be held in front of the user, and the weighted pendant will act as a sort of pendulum, swaying in the direction of the missing object. This will only work on objects within about a mile radius.

Guiding Spell: A short incantation that conjures an emissary from beyond the Earthly plane to light the way for travelers who have become lost or disorientated. Upon being conjured, the emissary will take the form of a small orb of light, and will lead the caster where they want to go based on their instructions. This does not work for finding objects or people– only for finding locations.

Map Spell: One of the more complicated types of tracking spells, but also one of the most useful. This spell requires a representation of the desired area, which can either be a literal map, or a crude drawing on the floor. The former will lead to more accurate and detailed results. The magician places a candle at each corner of the map and then crushes a crystal into a fine powder. After an incantation, they blow the powder over the surface of the map. The powder will stick to the map in places that have what the caster is looking for, whether it be asking to reveal the location of all demons, all vampires, all humans, or a specific person or object. There are anti-detection spells that can render this useless within certain places, but it is usually a good way to determine the lay of the land or find a specific species or individual.

LIMITS & RISKS: Tracking spells involve very little risk to those casting and using them. The only real risk is that someone can intercept the spell and make it lead the caster somewhere they didn’t intend, possibly into danger. Tracking spells will be unable to find someone or something that is in an alternate dimension or in an area that has an anti-tracking spell cast upon it, as many shady supernatural businesses do.

Common courtesy among witches

Here are some key points we should all note when dealing with other witches. 

Their path is not your path, don’t act like it is. 

Don’t demand or feel entitled to others’ knowledge. Do your own research first before asking.

Don’t bash other witches paths. You don’t agree with what they follow? Don’t follow that path yourself. 

We’ve all dealt with spells backfiring or not working, don’t sit there and make someone feel like crap because their spell didn’t work.

Don’t bash other witches because you disagree with their morals behind certain spellwork. They want to hex someone? Unless they’re hexing you, leave them to it. 

Don’t bash witches who practice “dark” magic, there’s light and dark in everything. It’s all about balance. 

Most of all, be helpful, courteous and friendly. We’re all going through this path together and we’re all siblings of the craft who need friends alike. 

[breelandwalker]

Addendum:

NEVER compare witch trials or witch hunts, from any period in history, to the Holocaust.

Sorry for no posts

So with yule and Christmas. I've been extremely busy also with my gaming youtube channel. So I'm sorry and more posts will be coming soon

Love pun

[pagansuncensored-deactivated202]

@ the salty broomstick anon: the staff are just trying to keep the server in order. no one bitches on anyone. if anything, the closest they get to "bitching" is mentioning something they've done wrong in the warning centre. all the staff are doing is keeping an open line of communication with the rest of the staff members, not "bitching" and being as unprofessional as *some* people are.
