What is White Magic? An Introduction to the Foundations of Magic

Compared to our ancient ancestors we are, simply because of the way society has developed, far less experienced in the ways of magic than they were. Although other things might often make us seem more advanced, what we have lost along the way is the appreciation and possibly gratitude that we should show to the world around us. White Magic in Contemporary Society In contemporary society, and often because of our ignorance surrounding such things, we often simplify the forces of magic...

The Elements of Magic and the Watchtowers

The Element Earth Earth is the element of form, binding, and manifestation. From an occult perspective, the element of Earth is the lowest in vibratory rate of the four elements. Creatures known as Gnomes, a dwarf-like race, live within the elemental realm of Earth. In a metaphysical sense, Earth is associated with the Northern quarter, and the color green - symbolizing its vitality and life. The pentacle is our magickal tool that represents Earth, our spirituality and connection with Goddess/life. In astrology...

How To Enhance Your Spell Work

Whether you have cast a spell yourself or had one cast on your behalf there is at least one thing you must remember; the Wiccan faith requires that you follow basic principles and failing to uphold these principles means that, in reality, you have little or no faith in this particular form of worship. Faith Wicca though does not require that you have faith in a particular spiritual deity, although, if you already belong to a coven then you will have at...

Sabbats – The Wheel of the Year

The pagan Wheel of the Year is marked by eight Sabbats, spaced approximately every six weeks throughout the year. Four of these Sabbats represent the position of the solar calendar (either solstice or equinox), and four fall at what are called the “cross quarters.” These ancient dates mark the middle of each season, where the old begins to fade into new. Yule For many pagans, Samhain marks the first Sabbat. For me, however, the Wheel of the Year begins at Yule, when...

The Moon Phases – Using Moon Energy in your Spells

The diagram shows the Moon in different positions along its orbit around the Earth. The Sun is off in the distance, lighting the Earth-Moon system. At any position, half of the Moon is illuminated by the Sun (the light side of the Moon), and half is not (the dark side). Also, half of the Moon is visible to the Earth (the near side of the Moon), and half is not (the far side). As the Moon moves around the Earth,...

Signs you are Cursed

There can be several reasons for someone placing a curse, hex, or jinx upon you. Unfortunately, one of the most common is actually when a spell has either been misdirected, or you have been caught up in the middle when a hex was meant for someone else. Other reasons for these bad intention spells being sent are, of course, jealousy, greed, and often an ill-conceived idea that the sender is seeking revenge. Indirect Curses Spotting that a curse is affecting your life can...

The Importance of Positive Thinking in Magic

Although there is often many references to positive thinking as a broad concept, if we actually sit down and examine it, the words themselves mean little in application. Thinking positively does not really mean walking around with a smile on your face, having an optimistic outlook and believing all will turn out nicely in the end. But life, unfortunately, is often full of nasty little episodes and quite a few surprises, so when it comes to thinking positive often it is...

The Importance of Spell Secrecy

No doubt that the complete world of magic and spell casting is often surrounded by secrecy and there are many and varied reasons for this being so. Historically, we know that witches were associated with evil and could be persecuted, so it would make sense to keep who they were, and what they did, secret. The Secret Ingredients We also know that there was, as there still is today, a great amount of secrecy surrounding the ingredients of any potions made which...

Why it is Important to Cleanse your Aura

Your Aura is the field of energy which surrounds you. Under normal circumstances it is made up a rainbow of crystal clear colors which not only reflect who you are but also your life experiences. When we are born this aura is perfect, yet as we grow not only can it be affected by our own negative thoughts and actions but also where we come into similar, external contacts. Self-governing Behavior As we stress throughout this website much of Wiccan worship involves...

The Threefold Law

The Threefold Law in Wicca and spell-casting in general refers not only to the strength of spells but also harks back to the principle of monitoring one’s own behavior. It is in effect a ‘reap what you sow’ effect and can be influenced by both good and negative acts and intentions. Most people who are interested in magic quite possibly think of the Threefold Law as being related to sending out energies three times the strength they would normally be, but...
