On The Subject Of Free Witch Spells

Everyone loves Free Witch Spells - and if you click on that link you can go grab some :-)

The thing to know with any spell - free or paid - is to approach it with the right intention. If you focus on abundance when you spell cast - you'll receive abundance back.

As like attracts like - and so it is important when casting any spell to have an open, loving, abundant heart and certainty that what you want to have happen will.

Now this can be challenging when your 'reality' seems to be the opposite - however this is the principal upon which magick works upon.

To create a new reality you have to live it beforehand with your feelings - you have to be prepared ot let go your emotions about your current situation and feel the feelings you would have if you had what your heart desires.

So again go here and grab these: Free Witch Spells - and enjoy :-)

Spell Casting: How Do You Close A Sacred Circle?

I often get asked about how best to close the Sacred Circle after you have finished spell casting.

I thought it worthwhile writing this up and posting it here :-)

When you cast the Sacred Circle you put three scoops of salt stirred into water. And then you the practitioner visualizes all negative thoughts and vibrations evaporating.

You then point the athame at the physical circle boundary and you will walk around the circle visualizing a beam of energy or light flowing from the end of the athame onto the circle boundary.

This is generally done clockwise.

Taking down or dismantling the sacred space involves the same procedure as creating it.

This time everything is done in reverse.

You begin in the North, pointing the Athame at the Northern Quadrant visualizing the Guardian returning to where it came from.

You continue moving counter clockwise dismissing the Guardians by moving widdershins (counterclockwise) around the circle, reciting in the appropriate quadrant what you generally recite.

Once you have dismissed the Guardians you then 'take up the circle' beginning in the North.

And you point the Athame at the circle boundary line withdrawing the psychic energy which was earlier placed there.

All items, tools etc used during the ritual also need to be put away unless it is an area used exclusively for ritual.

I trust this clarifies how best to complete your spell casting.

Wicca is one form of witchcraft.

And many Wiccans are not actually practicing witches.

So you can be wiccan and not practice the craft. And you can be a witch and not be wiccan. And of course you can be both.

Wicca is a relatively new pagan religion that traces back to Gerard Gardner. Who due to his frustration with both Christianity and Ceremonial Magic (which uses psychic skills through rituals, traditions and the laws of nature) that was at that time the only 'alternative' offering, prompted him to create something different.

Some suggest that it came about in 1951 and other texts claim it was in 1954 - suffice to say it was in the 50's that Wicca came into being.

Wiccans are taught to think for themselves, take responsibility for their lives and live by the Wiccan Rede which has the 'golden rule' of "An ye harm none, do what ye will"

A lot of Wiccans are attracted to The Craft because it draws on and strengthens their personal power.

They learn to create consciously outcomes that bring themselves and others that given them permission to cast on there behalf, joy.

Wicca very much has a "live and let live" philosophy. There is room for everyone and for everyone's personal belief system.

Most Wiccans believe it is unethical to impose their beliefs on others, let alone tell them how to worship.

Wiccans also know the power of belief - and that what you believe will happen in life will in fact be the outcome you experience.

That 9 times out of 10 we are creating unconsciously - and that may then mean we are creating what we don't want. As we are busy caught up in our emotions about something - and that emotion/feeling is sending out an energy wave that then brings back in like your experience.

Wiccans recognize that life is a mirror - and that it is possible to focus on what you do want - and so it becomes.

As stated the Wiccan Rede is very much the Wiccan Golden Rule. It reads as:

Wiccan Rede

Bide the Wiccan laws ye must, in perfect love and perfect trust.

Live and let live - fairly take and fairly give.

Cast the Circle thrice about to keep the evil spirits out.

To bind the spell every time, let the spell be spake in rhyme.

Soft of eye and light of touch - speak ye little, listen much.

Deosil go by the waxing moon - sing and dance the Wiccan Rune.

Widdershins go when the Moon doth wane, and the werewolf howls by thr dread wolfsbane.

When the Lady's Moon is new, kiss the hand to Her times two.

When the Moon rides at Her peak, then your heart's desire seek.

Head the North wind's mighty gale - lock the door and drop the sail.

When the wind comes from the South, love will kiss thee on the mouth.

When the West wind blows o'er, the departed spirits restless be.

Nine woods in the Cauldron go, burn them quick and burn them slow.

Elder be ye Lady's tree - burn it not or cursed ye'll be.

When the Wheel begins to turn, let the Beltane fires burn.

When the Wheel has turned to Yule, light the log and let Pan rule.

Heed ye flower, bush and tree - by the Lady blessed be.

When the ripping waters go, cast a stone and truth ye'll know.

When ye are in dire need, hearkin not to other's greed.

With the fool no season spend, or be counted as his friend.

Mind the threefold law ye should - three times bad and tree times good.

When misfortune is enow, wear the blue star on thy brow.

True in love ever be, unless thy lover's false to thee.

Eight words the Wiccan Rede fulfill, an ye harm none, do what ye will.

The main thing to take out of this as a Wicca Beginner's Guide is that Wiccan's very much have a live and let live philosophy and come from a true, loving, open, hearted space where they believe anything is possible and it is about working WITH the energies of the universe.

What is Paganism and being a Pagan Mean?

I often get asked about what is Paganism and what constitutes being a pagan.

I find Wikipedia a great source of information. Here are some snippets I took to help you understand what the word Pagan and Paganism really means.

Incidently (or maybe not so) the growth of Pagans and Pagan religions is at an all time high at this point in time.

Remember too that whilst it is accepted by many that witches and pagans are synonomous. That Witchcraft exists in ALL religions - not just Pagan ones


Paganism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia: "Both 'pagan' and 'heathen' have historically been used as a pejorative by adherents of monotheistic religions (such as Judaism, Christianity and Islam) to indicate a disbeliever in their religion. 'Paganism' is also sometimes used to mean the lack of (an accepted monotheistic) religion, and therefore sometimes means essentially the same as atheism. 'Paganism' frequently refers to the religions of classical antiquity, most notably Greek mythology or Roman religion, and can be used neutrally or admiringly by those who refer to those complexes of belief. However, until the rise of Romanticism and the general acceptance of freedom of religion in Western civilization, 'paganism' was almost always used disparagingly of heterodox beliefs falling outside the established political framework of the Christian Church. It has more recently (from the 19th century) been used admiringly by those who believe monotheistic religions to be confining or colourless.

Christianity itself has been perceived at times as a form of paganism by followers of the other Abrahamic religions[3][4]because of, for example, the Christian doctrine of the Trinity, the celebration of pagan feast days[5], and other practices [6] - through a process described as "baptising" [7]or "christianization". Even between Christians there have been similar charges of paganism levelled, especially by Protestants[8],[9], towards the Roman Catholic and Orthodox Churches for their veneration of the saints and images.

Pagan religions

The pagan religions are divided into two great groups: the American Paganism and the European (or classic) Paganism.



* Ancient Greek religion
* Ancient Near East Paganism
* Celtic polytheism
* Baltic paganism
* Finnish paganism
* Germanic paganism
* Paganism in the Eastern Alps
* Slavic paganism
* Egyptian Paganism


Neopaganism

In another sense, as used by modern practitioners, Paganism is a polytheistic, panentheistic, or pantheistic religious practice, often nature-based. Most Pagans consider themselves to be religious, however some others use the term for a form of Atheism, Agnosticism, or philosophy. Neopaganism includes reconstructed religions such as Hellenic polytheism, Celtic Reconstructionist Paganism, and the many Germanic revivals such as Ásatrú, Heathenry, Norse paganism and Theodism. Due to the fact that Reconstructionist religions are polytheistic revivals and elaborations based on surviving cultural practices, many Reconstructionists prefer to be called Pagans, not Neopagans. It might best be assessed that they inhabit a grey area between Pagan and Neopagan.

Also categorised as Neopagan are religions such as Forn Sed, Neo-druidism, Longobardic Odinism, Lithuanian Romuva, and Slavic Rodoverie that also claim to revive an ancient religion rather than reconstruct it, though in general the difference is not absolutely fixed.

Modern eclectic traditions such as Discordianism, and Wicca and its many offshoots are Neopagan, although Wiccans and Wiccan-influenced Neopagans may also refer to themselves simply as "Pagan".

Modern nature religion

Many current Pagans in industrial societies base their beliefs and practices on a connection to Nature, and a divinity within all living things, but this may not hold true for all forms of Paganism, past or present. Some believe that there are many deities, while some believe that the combined subconscious spirit of all living things forms the universal deity. Paganism pre-dates modern monotheism, although its origins are lost in prehistory.

Do You Think You Were Born A Witch?

I often get emails from people claiming that they are a second, third, fourth generation witch.

As if they were born as a witch

And conversely I have other people emailing me saying they don't think they have the 'special powers' of a witch as they weren't born a witch.

I want to dispell that myth now.

NO-ONE is "born" a witch.

ANYONE can successfully practice Witchcraft.

Now I do not wish to give offence to those who do have generations of witches in their families.

I'd suggest that the more applicable way to describe it is that you were born open to strengthening your gifts of conscious creation because members of your family have been doing it from generation to generation.

You see we ALL have natural gifts for conscious creation.

EVERY single one of us.

What differs between person to person is:

a) the degree of receptivity to the concept that we can consciously create for ourselves (aka practice magick)

b) the amount of practice and experience we have doing that.

So if you are reading this and you are someone who is wondering "Do I have 'the gift' for witchcraft?"

Yes you do!

You ALL do.

And whilst you might not have come from a family or community environment that is open to such concepts or practices - there is nothing to stop you from opening yourself up to it and seeing how magick can work for you in your life.

Well in fact there might be ONE thing that could stop you...yourself ;-)

Never Divine Against Another's Free Will - Rule of Three!

I received this letter for a member of our community that I wanted to share with you - whilst protecting their identity.

It is a great reminder of the importance of NOT divining against another's free will. The Law of Three - Click Here for more info on it - does come into play - every time!

Dear Ms. Arabella Jolie,

I have received many of your emails talking about love spells. I've been a witch at that time for about four years. The reason I decided to follow the wiccan faith was at first desperate for love in my life.

Not just anyone to love me but, to gain the favor of a particular person, the father of my children.

I too became a witch because I fell in love with the love that the goddess had to offer.

How ever in due time I became to understand the importance and the depth of what it means to be a witch.

I understand the great power that comes along with being a witch which frankly scared the living pants off of me.

When I did spells to help me keep my home and it worked ( I had to fight in court). It was great but too, kind of scary.

The love spells were the real kicker. I understand the 3 fold law but I was so desperate to have that man, I didn't care what happened. I bound him too me: two weeks later I got pregnant.

I did a lust spell on him. He wouldn't leave me alone but it wasn't a good thing all we did was argue because we clashed as we were not meant to be together.

Because of the lust spell, 3 days later our sex was so different. He was way too into me, it was as if he needed to me drink me in tearing me, biting me. I liked it but it was obvious to me that it was the lust spell that was making him do this.

Yes I had him, sometimes it was great, other times a living hell as he became controlling.

Sometimes he would say to me "I don't even know why I came". In my head I said, "I do".

I've found that a person has to have a strong sence of moral to be a witch, to be really responsible. In witch craft you're dealing with the good and bad and it takes a strong person to be able to balance that.

This is a letter from a real person - and it tells a real story of the heart ache they caused themselves by divining against another's free will in their desperate attempt to get love.

What I admire about this person is their ability to learn and not repeat mistakes - I take my hat off to them, and hope that you reading this do not end up learning the hard way (and it's pretty awful) like they did.

Witches Also Celebrate Valentines Day!

I know that for many Valentines Day is more deserved of being called Hallmark Day

The thing though with a day like today - is that it reminds us of something that is worthwhile doing 24/7 for every day of the year...

And that is to LOVE one another.

This is not confined to romantic love alone - this is about opening your heart and giving of yourself and your positive regard to others.

As opposed to waiting, hoping or demanding you get it first.

You see this is also what makes Witches so powerful.

A true witch who practices the craft draws on his/her power by going into their heart.

It is about consciously creating with an open heart space.

When we are in a state of love, joy, peace, calm, fulfilment we are able to manifest more powerfully what it is we desire.

Now you might read that and think - "that's impossible, how can I do that, when I want this so so much?!"

And that is what it is ALL about. That you can see, touch, taste and feel what you want to have as if you have it now - so you feel those joyous, happy, loving feels as you would when your heart's desire comes to you.

As remember the universal principal is that LIKE attracts LIKE.

So whether it be today - Febraury 14th or any other day - I encourage you to open your heart - as when you do...you will be opening your power to consciously create magick in your life!

Happy Valentines Day to Witches and those still yet to become...

Trees and Witchcraft

Trees and Witchcraft

Beliefs concerning trees, their magickal properties and the spirits that are thought to indwell them, are sol old and so widespeard that it is impossible to do more than give a glimpse into tree lore and its connection with witchcraft.

Trees not only have distinct personalities of their own, for those who are sensitive to such things; but many trees are the abodes of spirits, which may be friendly towards humans, or sometimes very much otherwise.

A hunted wood in Sussex, particularly connected with the ghost of a witch, is Tuck's Wood near Buxted. The story behind this haunting is that, many years ago, a beautiful young girl called Nan Tuck somehow acquired the reputation of being a witch. One day an angry mob set about her and threatened to "swim" her in the pond at Tickerage Mill. She fled, with the mob in pursuit, and made for Buxted Church to ask for sanctuary. She manaaged to reach the church, and tried to grasp the 'sanctuary ring' -- the big ring of iron on many old-fashioned church doors -- but the parson pushed her away, quoting the text about "not sufferiing a witch." Presumably, she was abandoned to the mob.

She subsequently hanged herself from a tree in Tuck's Wood, and ever afterwards her ghost has haunted the wood and its neighborhood.

It isn't peculiar that there are many stories of ghostly phenomena connected with woods and with trees in general, when you realize that so old and powerful a living thing as a tree must have a strong aura surrounding it. Some sensitive people can see the auras of trees, as a faint silvery light against the sky.

By leaning your back against a tree, you can attune yourself to its vitality, drawn deep from the earth and nourished by sunshine and rain. Many trees have healing influence upon humans, when their life-force is contacted in this way.

The Truth about Black Cats

The Truth about Black Cats in Witchcraft

Yesterday as I was driving, a black cat crossed my path. It crossed from right to left, and after it arrived to the other side of the street, it turned and stared into my eyes with its beautiful golden ones. I smiled back at it.

Bad luck? Good luck? I've heard so many things over the years!

My father used to claim he didn't believe in anything, but would make a u-turn to avoid the crossing of a black cat in front of him -- if it was crossing in the wrong direction. I can't remember if left to right was the wrong direction or vice versa. What pressure he must have been under to make the adjustments he had to make!

According to Wikipedia, "In Western history, black cats have often been looked upon as a symbol of bad omens although they are considered to be good omens in other cultures."

The truth is, what you believe is what manifests itself. Like attracts like. If you believe something is bad luck, then it becomes that for you.

I choose to see this beautiful black cat's crossing as a wonderful sign of good luck for me.

The Truth about Black Cats in Witchcraft

My Spell Didn't Work - So Witchcraft Doesn't Work!

"Witchcraft doesn't work - so my spell didn't work!"

I sometimes receive emails from people saying exactly that to me. They cast a spell yesterday, last week, a couple of weeks ago and it didn't produce the results they desired.

A couple of things I say consistently in response to that are:

The foundation of witchcraft is based on belief – believing that something you desire can and will happen. Like attracts like.

So the key is for you to be in that position of believing that you have the power to create what you desire, and the spell is your vehicle to do this. Otherwise, no amount of spell casting or magick making will work.

The power comes from the witch themselves – and everyone has that power.

When you decide you have that, then you will see spells working for you very quickly.

So that is how you begin, then when you have cast your spell...

If you are waiting (think fingers drumming on the table top, or waiting expectantly for it to materialize) for the spell to happen - your energy and focus is actually on that it 'might not happen' - whereas the key to casting a spell is to know with absolutely certainty it will happen for you and then you let it go. Waiting is not a factor as you know it is going to happen.

You do not cast a spell and then expect it to happen overnight or within a week - as again that is telling that your energy is on fear, anxiety and that it may not happen.

YOU are the key to the spell working - and it is about you having that certainty of what you want to have happen will - you can feel it as if it is your reality now.

I can promise you that when you fully, truly and deeply believe that what you want to have happen will - to the point that you can see, feel, touch and taste it - it will eventuate.

Because...LIKE ATTRACTS LIKE - the energy you put out will come back to you in like. If you focus on hoping, worrying or wondering if it will happen - you will stay in that state - it wont eventuate. When you trust, know and accept it as a certainty - so it becomes.

"Witchcraft doesn't work - so my spell didn't work!"

Does Being A Witch Mean I Can't Be a Christian?

Another common Witchcraft question I get asked is:

Does being a witch mean I can't be a christian?

Witchcraft has received most recognition in the modern world as stemming from Paganism - the term can be defined broadly, to encompass many or most of the faith traditions outside the Abrahamic monotheistic group of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam.

In many associate it with Wicca - which is a Neo Pagan religion first founded in 1954 by Gerald Gardner.

It is not always widely acknowledged that many ancient and current cultures have some form of magickal practice - and they may call their practioners witches, shamans, medicine men/women, wise man/woman and many other terms.

In fact in ancient Alexandrian times there are records of spells to have come from Judaism as well as Christianity, as well as many other religions.

So you can be a 'witch' and also be a christian if you choose to be.

Practicing witchcraft is about consciously creating outcomes that you desire, or are desired by others that give you permission to create them.

We are ALL born with the gift of being able to create magick. The key is to switch on that magick lightbulb inside of us and learn how to direct our energy with the energies of the Universe.

Also for clarification - you can practice Witchcraft and not be Wiccan, or you can be Wiccan and not practice Witchcraft, or you can be both or neither.

There is in fact great flexibility with the Craft - with the important features being to come from a loving, genuine place ('black magick' is an aberration that white witches do not engage with or acknowledge); that you do not divine against another's free will and you offer libations for assistance that you receive - more on that later. And that you believe in the power to receive what you wish for to the point of certainty.

I trust you have found this useful - and like with anything in this world - there are different factions with different takes on the meaning of The Craft. Ours stems from ancient, well meaning origins.

Witchcraft Money Spell

Here's a wonderful spell for you to do to attract financial abudance into your life:

Working With Witchcraft When Searching for Success

You may be looking for your first real job, trying to get a big promotion after a number of years, or starting up your own business, and you are looking for success. A spell to be successful, like the one below can help you believe in yourself and attract opportunity.

To Bring Success Spell

Tools and ingredients

Bathtub
Salt
Two green candles
A bowl full of fresh leaves from four of the following plants: Marigold, Celery, Mint, Grass, Nasturtium, Parsley, Cress, and Comfrey.
Cheesecloth
Silver ribbon

Step 1. After collecting the tools and ingredients, prepare the space around the bathtub according to your own ritual, or by lightly sprinkling salt in a circle around it while speaking the following words: I consecrate this place/ for the Goddess within and without/ Only love and good can remain/ hate and evil are cast out.

Step 2. Light the candles and fill the bathtub.

Step 3. As the tub is filling, concentrate on that thing which is your goal. Visualize the steps necessary to achieve it.

Step 4. When the bath is ready, sprinkle the leaves throughout the tub.

Step 5. Get into the bath and inhale the steam as you speak the following words seven times: Blessed One within and without/ As green and strong these gentle herbs are/ let them draw to me favor and fortune/ In your wisdom show me/ how to achieve that which I desire.

Note. If you have a specific goal in mind, it is appropriate to add that to the end of this incantation. Whether you know your goal or if it is more general, it is very important to visualize the success you desire.

Step 6. Remain in the bath as long as you like, meditating on your desired goal. When you are finished, collect the wet leaves into the piece of cheesecloth and gather up the sides to make a bag. Tie it with the silver ribbon and hang it to dry.

Step 7. At night, when you sleep, place the bag under your pillow. As you sleep, repeat the incantation and visualize your success.

I wish you every success with it!
