A Note About Spells:
If you are here looking for spells to affect the will
of other people, i.e., make someone love you, harm someone, attain personal
gain at the cost of others, etc... you are in the wrong place. Spells, simply
put, are a way of directing energy to bring about change in YOUR life, not
someone
elses. Change can happen in many ways and that may or may not be in the way
that you expect. Wiccans never perform spells or rituals to harm or affect
the
will of others, only to affect their own lives in positive ways by drawing
upon
their own energies. Please do not contact us asking for spells to control the
will of others; we cannot and will not help you. There is no
"hocus-pocus"
here, it takes many years of practice and attuning to channel your inner
energies
and it is not to be taken lightly. That said, if you are still interested in
learning more about Wicca and/or Paganism, please visit these web links:

December 2004: ( back to top ) Winter Ritual Bath During the Winter Solstice/Christmas Season we often place too much emphasis on celebrating and sharing this joyous holiday. It is often helpful amongst all the stress to atune to a quiet, internal spirituality. To begin to do so, prepare a ritual bath with oils of rosemary, pine and orange. Add a touch of patchouli for grounding. Light gold and green candles and immerse yourself in the watery solitude to refresh your weary holiday spirit. Meditate on the Winter Goddess and her lesson of stillness. Find the cool and clean space she offers, free of clutter and activity. It is the season for centering and grounding and for defining who we really are. After the bath, take your journal and write down your goals by candlelight. Contemplate the coming re-birth and identify which direction you wish to channel your energies and focus your intentions. -This bath was adapted by one written by Karri Allrich

cauldron or large bowl with water and add some floating candles. Light all
the

June 2005: ( back to top ) Ring of Fire Spell This spell is based on a little-known solar ritual from the Aegean islands. Long ago on the night before the Summer Solstice, hoops were set ablaze, and the villagers woudl guide the Sun's return by jumping though rings of fire.

July 2005: ( back to top ) A Vacation Spell For a change of pace you may want to try using some magic to decide the best destination for a quick get away. You will need a pendulum and a map. Narrow down your choices to between three and five destinations and spread the map in front of you. First, as the pendulum to show you a "no" answer and a "yes" answer. When you have determined which way it swings for yes and no, hold it over each sight. Ask aloud if this would be a good place for your vacation. The pendulum will swing giving you a yes or no answer. If the pendulum swings in circles or vibrates wildy, avoid that location. When the pendulum answers yes to one or more locations you have your destinations! August 2005: ( back to top )
