HOW TO GET A LOVE SPELL TO WORK

2011-06-02T00:27:00.000-07:00

Everyone wants to have a mate or a lover. The desire fro someone to share your life with is one of the universal constants of human existence, common amon all people, all over the world. As a result, most people devote a good part of their youth to finding a partner, marrying them, and then unfortunately for some, frequently estrangeing themselves, divorcing them or separating from them later on in life. These people will then usually begin the whole process of seeking the "right" partner all over again, or if they discover they are not actually suited for the married life afterall, and the single life is better for them.

Permenant alliances aside, there are several sexual attraction spells that may draw a temporary lover to solve the problem of those occassionally overwhelming sexual urges that afflict us all. These spells should never be considered love spells, as they are strictly lust spells.

Love spells are many in number, there are so many of them that several books have been written that deal only with love spells. However it is our experience that when you do a love spell of ANY kind on another person, for it to work you must be be "open" to them. Should they begin a conversation with you, you must respond to it actively, and should they ask you for a date, even casually offering to just have coffee and lunch with you, you should immediately agree. You have taken the initiative by having the spell performed either for you or by you, now you must be compliant to them, making yourself available to them for any social contact that they may attempt to initiate with you.

Women work most magical spells for love, then in some cases they often void the effort of the spell by being overly nervous or reluctant about accepting social invitations when the man they are seeking to ensnare or any other man asks them out. If a woman wants a man (or visa versa), they should certainly be able to accept an invitation from them for a date or some other social contact. Your prospective partner is not going to become close to you unless you allow the social contact to occur.

This same difficulty is found among men and women who are shy, or those who are fearful of men/women. Worshipping the person from afar, these people could often develop a friendship, if not a romance with the said person if they would just speak to them, the worse thing the man/woman can do is ignore you, and really you are no worse off than you were before if this does happen.

If you do decide to do a love spell or have a love spell done for you to attract some you are drawn to, please be open to the spell being performed so that it actually bears fruit. Do not allow fears of your beloved to block you from socializing with them, especially should they ask you to join them for any social event, from coffee to an evening out on the town.

NUMEROLOGY AND THE TAROT

2011-05-01T01:40:00.000-07:00

In the older Tarot decks, the twenty-two Major Arcana cards were the only care with symbolic drawings, the Court Cards depicted the Page, Knight, Queen and King of each suit, and the forty Pip cards merely showed the number of each card (the word "pip" refers to the markings that show the numerical order of the card). Because the original Tarot decks had only numerical markings on the Pip cards, the divinatory meanings of the Pips relied on the numerological symbolism of each card combined with the meaning attributed to the suit. Therefore, the student of Tarot needs to know something about numerology to appreciate the symbolism of the Pip cards.

The key numbers used in numerology are the ten digits (0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) and the master numbers (11 and 22). These concepts are helpful in Tarot delineation and other forms of divination. Becoming familiar with your life path and personal year numbers will give you further insight into the meanings of Pip cards of the Tarot.

Your Life Path, Birth Force or Destiny Number
The Life Path number is a number derived from your exact day, month and year of birth. To find your life path number, add the numbers of your day, month and year of birth. Take this sum and add the digits together until you get either a master number (11 or 22) or a single digit (0 through 9). That is your life path or birth force number. It has to do with your fundamental makeup and the major lessons you must learn in this lifetime.

For example say you were born 8th May 1981:
add the date of birth: 8+5+1981=1994
add the digits in the sum: 1+9+9+4+23
as 23 is not a single digit or a master number add them together: 2+3+5

The lifepath or Destiny Number is 5. Now calculate your own life path number following the same procedure.

The Personal Year Number
Calculating the personal year number is similar to calculating the life path number. The only difference is that you use your birthdate in the current year instead of the actual year of birth. The personal year number tells you the numerological significance of the current year in your life.

For example, say your were born 31st May 1951, and the current year now being 2011, to find your current personal year number add together the numbers in your current years birthdate as follows:

Add current year birth date: 31+5+2011 = 2047
Now add together these digits: 2+0+4+7 = 13
As 13 is not a master number or a single digit add them together: 1 + 3 = 4

This persons personal year is 4. Now calculate your own life path number following the same procedure.

Keep checking back to this post as we will be adding the numerological significance of the digits and master numbers shortly.

Weekly Horoscope for Aquarius

This week's scenario is highlighted by an upsurge of positive energy, that continues to fuel your fire. You could get used to your current level of ease and happiness. Life may not always be this wonderful, but you'd do well to find a formula that you can repeat when the mood dictates. Your mood, no matter what it is does affect others. Wield your power with patience and fairness. Take time to smell the flowers and realize what personal wealth you possess. By giving in to selfishness, you start a negative imbalance that might be hard to contain. Keep your charge cards on a short leash, for the moment.

PISCES (FEB 19 - MARCH 20)

2011-04-18T02:14:00.000-07:00

The Moon is associated by astrologers with the imaginative, psychic, impressionable, gullible and mystical sign Pisces, the fishes.

Mysterious and alluring individuals, most Pisces are extremely talented, but even though they are gifted in many ways, they still manage to spend most of their lives battling "confusing" conditions. Pisces is the sign symbolised by the image of two fish. Their symbol depicts one fish heading upward, the other pulling downward. This mirrors how Pisceans are frequently torn between two pathways in life, or actually do live two very different existences at the same time.

The number 2, is a very powerful number for them. This zodiac sign is acknowledged as being the Saint and the Sinner rolled into one; the trendsetter of fashion or art, the lost soul, the philosopher and the psychotic and the visionary. As a credit to them, considering their many vulnerable characteristics; Pisceans are incredibly adaptable and resilient. They are to be found leading the field in many diverse areas of life and many Pisces can be found represented amongst top business millionaires. On the other side of the coin, prisons, reform schools and all kinds of institutions statistically hold a high number of Pisceans too.

The Piscean's inner quest to explore their "ivory tower" syndrome can lead them into some most unusual and unlikely living conditions. Of all the signs of the zodiac, Pisces are the ones who end up in the most muddles over the years of their lives. They fantasize about situations, people and particularly romance - and because they spend so much time in their own form of 'fantasy land' this can catch them short in other more worldly areas. Because of this inner world of fantasy, Pisces people seldom perceive whatever is going on around them in its true light. They see life instead as they want to see it, coloring their view of the world in hues and tones far removed from its true reflection. No wonder this is the sign of both miracles and disillusionment. If you are a Pisces, be warned your emotions are a weak spot.

One thing that plays havoc with your life is romance. When things romantically are going well for you, you are on cloud nine. When romance turns sour you land in a heap. Pisces often need to take lots of holidays (or time off) to recover from life's many diverse pressures. You are the zodiac's most sensitive sign, so you need to take extra special care of yourself. Nobody can beat you up, as much as you can beat yourself up within your own mind. In your purest form you are psychic, visionary and a guiding light to all who know you. But, in your "out of tune" state, you become depressed, obsessive and confused.

Your element: Water

Your ruling planets: Neptune

Symbol: The Fish

Your stone: Bloodstone

Life Pursuit: To avoid feeling alone and instead feel connected to others and the world at large

Vibration: Erratic Energy levels

Pisces Secret Desire: To live their dreams and turn fantasies into realities.

AQUARIUS (JAN 20 - FEB 18)

2011-04-18T02:09:00.000-07:00

The Star is assoicated by astrologers with the humanitarian, visionary, altruistic sign Aquarius, the Water Bearer, a sign of balance and harmony.

Special note for Aquarians: With the new Millennium heralding the Dawn of the Age of Aquarius, at this time, ready or not, your sign is regarded as the zodiac's leader. You are the trendsetter for the future and because of this high responsibility, many under born your sign will be undergoing at this time, as we approach the Millennium, the pressure of personal change (particularly in your values and what makes you content and happy). Yours has always been a philanthropic sign. Now more than ever these qualities will be highlighted.

Those born under the sign of Aquarius not only march to a different drummer, they make up new music as they go along. They are 'mind oriented' individuals, whose thoughts never stop tick-tocking over. Because of their high focus on intellectual exploration, many inventors, eccentrics and highly original trailblazers are born under this sign. Their intense ability to live on many mental levels, holds both pain and pleasure for Aquarians. For example, in the American Hall of Fame there are more Aquarians than any other sign, yet statistics reveal that in mental institutions there are more Aquarians than any other sign too. Many extremes can surround this sign and these extremes can take them to both heaven and hell.

But in everyday terms, most Aquarians are extremely humanitarian and often involved in social programs that assist others. They can also be objective in judgement, for they never let their emotions get in the way. Outgoing and amiable, Aquarians attract friends wherever they go and those whom Aquarians befriend have their unswerving loyalty.

Aquarians are the zodiac's most mysterious and unusual people - and no two are anything alike. Those born under this sign - ruled by innovative and non-conformist Uranus - march to the beat of their own drum. They see life in a different way. Others quite frequently think their habits and ideas are eccentric or crazy in some way, but it is this uniqueness that makes them so special. The Aquarian mind is extremely quick and they never seem to stop thinking (it is interesting to note that many born under this sign suffer from insomnia.) Aquarians usually have strong political, environmental or social beliefs. But whether it is a relationship, career or cause - Aquarians are happiest when they have "something" to believe in and nurture.

Your element: Air

Your ruling planets: Uranus

Symbol: The Water Bearer

Your stone: Amethyst

Life Pursuit: To understand life's mysteries

Vibration: High frequency

Aquarian's Secret Desire: To be unique and original

CAPRICORN (DEC 22 - JAN 19)

2011-04-18T02:05:00.000-07:00

The Devil is associated by astrologers to the ambitious, determined, aspiring sign Capricorn, the goat.

The sign of the high roller, Capricorn is regarded as the zodiac’s top, but also quiet, life and business achievers. But, there are two very different types of Capricorns.

The first is represented by the mountain goat, always climbing higher and higher; never content until reaching the top. The second is the garden goat, with little adventurous spirit or ambition-happy to remain within a small domain, refusing to budge unless it is pushed. Either type of Capricorn, however, is patient and persevering. They reach their goals because they know the longest journey commences with a single step and that the first step is always the most difficult.

The one thing a Capricorn must always try to do is balance work with play; otherwise they can become too one-sided and work can replace true personal emotional fulfilment. Continually climbing the eternal mountain of success, Capricornians rise to the occasion when faced with a new task or deadline. Even if something comes to a grinding halt, their ambition to reach the ultimate keeps them moving forever onwards and upwards (prompted by the strict influence of ruling planet Saturn). Although conservative and cautious, Goats are willing to try unusual approaches on their road to success in business or in love. Romantically, they desire a permanent relationship with someone who'll give them the affection they crave (and often neglect to give themselves!)

The rulership of Saturn - the planet representing responsibility, structure and hard work - ensures that Capricorns in their truest of expression, are ambitious, practical and superb organizers. Although many Capricorns are borderline workaholics, this doesn't necessarily make them dull or gloomy! They have an offbeat sense of humour, which seems to erupt at the most unexpected moments. Their motivating force in life is success, money, status, authority and - although many might not admit it - love. By nature Capricorns are cautious when entering a new love relationship, but once they feel 'safe' with their partner, the cool exterior melts away to reveal a sensitive and loyal heart beneath. As a friend, Capricorns can be relied upon to provide the strongest and most sympathetic pair of shoulders in the zodiac...

Your element: Earth

Your ruling planets: Saturn

Symbol: The Goat

Your stone: Garnet

Life Pursuit: To be proud of their achievements

Vibration: Poweful resilient energy

Capricorn Secret Desire: to be admired by their family and friends and the world at large

SAGITTARIUS (NOV 22 - DEC 21)

2011-04-18T01:59:00.000-07:00

Temperance is associated with the wise, tolerant and independent sign Sagittarius by astrologers.

Ruled by the benefic planet Jupiter, Sagittarians possess a natural exuberance, sense of adventure and love of life that makes them one of the most optimistic zodiac signs of all. Like their astrological symbol - the Archer - Sagittarians are renowned for aiming their sights towards whatever it is they find alluring - a love partner, dream job, vacation - and making it their own. They believe that anything is possible - and because of this belief system, Sagittarians are adept at seeking out their very own pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

But sometimes trying to tie down these free-spirited individuals is frustrating for those around them. Sagittarians are happiest on the move - exploring new cultures and ideas and many are attracted to occupations related to travel, the media, outdoor work and philosophical pursuits. In love, their catch-cry is "don't fence me in". But once they find a partner who understands their need to retain their own sense of self and identity, Sagittarians can be the most big-hearted, generous and fun-loving companions of all.

Freedom loving, optimistic and honest, Sagittarians are ruled by Jupiter, the planet of abundance and higher learning. The wisdom of Jupiter imbibes Sagittarians with an inherent need to develop their own unique philosophy of life. The Centaur is their astrological symbol, and it gives many insights into the Sagittarian personality. The higher-evolved Sagittarian learns to integrate the two ends of the Centaur (half-human, half-beast) in order for their arrow (another Sagittarian symbol) of higher aspirations to be more on the mark. Although they are intellectually and spiritually advanced, Sagittarians are notorious for their lack of tact. In relationships they demand independence, but when in love, it can't be denied that they are one of the most big-hearted signs of the zodiac.

Your element: Fire

Your ruling planets: Jupiter

Symbol: The Archer

SCORPIO (OCTOBER 23 TO NOVEMBER 21)

2011-04-17T03:03:00.000-07:00

Death is associated by astrologers with the mysterious, secretive, healing, sexual, evolutionary and regenerative sign Scorpio, (the Scorpion) the eighth house of death and regeneration.

Reputed to be the "most powerful" sign of the zodiac, Scorpios lead fate filled lives and have intense and dramatic personal relationships. Even as children Scorpios are often found to be wise beyond their years. Many astrologers call this the sign of the "oldest souls". Old and wise beyond the average, Scorpios often know all the answers, except sometimes; they too often have difficulty finding what they need to develop their own happiness.

Passion, desire and power go hand in hand for Scorpios. Their biggest challenge and test in life is choosing between the power of love and the love of power. Coming to grips with their extraordinary emotional depths and sensitivity isn't easy for those around them. They are different from all other zodiac signs and this difference has them walking, working and loving to a different beat. Others can often live with a Scorpio partner for years, but not really know them. Much to do with a Scorpio remains ever secret. Their eyes often blaze with feelings that words never express, and beware on the days or nights they hide their feelings behind dark glasses, there is likely to be a storm of some kind brewing. When you deal with a Scorpio you have to always deal with them on a psychic intuitive level. They often wear a mask. Too often they say "no" when they really mean "yes". They have contrary natures. Once they find true love they can be the most faithful dedicated of all partners but fall out badly with a Scorpio and you are likely to find they will never forget or forgive.

Most Scorpios are winners. The main thing they have to worry about is their attitudes, which make up their mind powers and can either make or break them. When they are negative about something or someone, or critical of themselves, they can tend to get in their own way.

Scorpios operate on three levels of soul evolvement; adding up to three distinctively different types of Scorpios. The first level is the Scorpion. This is the least evolved and most drawn toward using their powers the wrong way. The criminal element of Scorpio comes under this level. Then there is the eagle - the highflying, entrepreneurial, successful Scorpio, who seems able to rise above adversity and transform bad-times into good. Then the highest expression of this sign is the Phoenix Resurrected. These Scorpios are detached and extremely powerful. They are wise beyond their years and act as leaders and are an inspiration to others. Quite frequently a Scorpio goes through the three levels of evolvement in one lifetime - but the levels can operate out of sequence.

LIBRA (SEPTEMBER 23 - OCTOBER 22)

2011-04-17T02:58:00.000-07:00

Justice is associated by astrologers with the sign Libra, the scales, a sign of balance and harmony.

Every adolescent Libran's fantasy is to find the Prince or Princess of their dreams. As their lives unfold, the experiences, false starts, dramas, broken hearts and disillusionment they encounter seeking this personal Holy Grail, often shapes their futures in the most extra-ordinary manner. Love and love-lost makes a big difference to the Libran although their often happy-go-lucky appearance against all kinds of odds may not reveal this as fact.

Librans can switch off from the world around then and during these periods much more occurs on the deep innermost levels of the Libran's psyche, than their closest companions imagine. Many Librans after establishing a lifestyle that somehow falls short of their childhood dreams, manage to conjure up a most independent life and keep up an image of being dedicated to a "close relationship". They can escape into obscure role playing - and often this makes them extremely successful business people. When it comes to romance and love, Librans can be difficult to fathom yet in business many Librans discover they can not only be creative, but it provides an opportunity to express the more diverse sides to their personalities. Their charm can win jobs and provides powerful friends. But in both work and play, looking for peace and harmony, Librans often say "yes" when they should be saying "no".

It is a sad fact about many a Libran's personal or business lives to say - many would have faired far better had they remained alone! But for those Librans who do find their secret dream and meet up with their Prince or Princess, that's another story! You'll find them living in some exotic, distant beautiful place, probably running the local bar or restaurant, designing the beach or ski gear, looking wonderful, sipping cocktails and finding life to be the total paradise they knew it could be. What Librans always have to remember when looking to fulfil their dreams is they should never undermine their own integrity and hold out until their dreams do come true - not simply take whatever is offered.

Your element: Air

Libran's Secret Desire: To live an easy, uncomplicated life.

VIRGO (AUGUST 23 - SEPTEMBER 22)

2011-04-17T02:52:00.000-07:00

The Hermit embodies the old adage "know thyself" and astrologers associate this card with the prudent, service-orientated sign Virgo, the Virgin, goddess of the harvest.

Virgos are often put down badly by many astrologers and written up as being fussy and narrow-minded. But when a Virgo shines, there is practically no sign to match their inner light. An in-tune Virgo is a treat to meet. When a Virgo is confident within themselves they are the most successful, structured and creative of all the signs.

Many Virgos can be found working in the "service to others" industries, ranging from welfare work, doctors, school-teachers through to practising natural forms of healing like massage, herbal remedies etc. One of the most magical characteristics of the Virgo is no matter how many times life or romance turns sour on them, they still manage to maintain faith in others, refusing to become cynical. There is ingenuity around this sign, a kind-heartedness, which unfortunately is sometimes played upon by others for their advantage. Virgos can often become victims of relationship power-games, where they are mistreated.

Creative and sensitive, Virgos are delicate people who, like rare and special orchids, require individual treatment to fully blossom into their true unique beauty. Shy, they are happy to allow others to take centre-stage and often generate their time and energy into making those they love happy or successful.

Virgos are givers and when the chips are down and you need a friend, the one available during those testing times when you need advice or companionship the most, is likely to be a Virgo. Virgos understand human frailties better than most, because they are so deep and reflective themselves. With a Virgo in your life you have someone who understands and cares and any romance or friendship based upon these qualities is certain to be mutually rewarding.

Your element: Earth

Your ruling planets: Mercury

Symbol: The Virgin

Your stone: Sapphire

Life Pursuit: To do the right thing

Vibration: Compassionate and caring

Virgo's Secret Desire: To love and be loved in return

LEO (JULY 23 - AUGUST 22)

2011-04-17T02:47:00.000-07:00

Strength is associated to the extroverted, creative, child-orientated and proud sign Leo, the lion which stands for rulership.

Love triumphs over all for this sign, which is ruled by the heart and operates from this dimension too. Leo's are born fortunate. Charismatic and positive-thinking they attract not only an abundance of friends and opportunities, but manage to survive life's stormy times with style and good humour.

Once a Lion is committed to a relationship, they are totally devoted and faithful. Should their heart or trust be broken they never forgive or forget. When a relationship breaks down (even a long standing one) they can disappear into the sunset without a backward look. Leos can cut ties, and leave others heartbroken, but usually there is a good reason why they have broken a tryst. For a Leo, when a relationship is over, really over, it is over for good.

There are three levels of soul-evolution of the Leos. The highest is represented by the Sphinx; wise beyond their years and great teachers to others. The second is the Lion, King of the Jungle, ruled by ego but always protective and sustaining of those they love. The last is the Lion Cub, immature and undeveloped, frightened by anything new. These Leos cling to others (in the mode of the child not wanting to leave its mother's side).) They can't bear to be alone.

No matter what level they have attained, all Leos are trendsetters, leaders and adventurers. Their weakness is their pride. This is one sign where the saying "flattery will get you everything" applies, but be warned criticism will slam the relationship door right in your face.

Your element: Fire

Your ruling planets: The Sun

Symbol: The Lion

Your stone: Peridot

Life Pursuit: To lead the way

Vibration: Radiant Energy

Leo's Secret Desire: To be a star

CANCER (JUNE 21 - JULY 22)

2011-04-17T02:42:00.000-07:00

The Chariot is associated with the nurturing, protective sign Cancer, the crab, as in this card we realize that life involves conflict and compromise, that there is no light without darkness, that we must all integrate our shadow.

Those born under the sign of Cancer, ruled by the mysterious Moon, are one of the zodiac's enigmas. It is fair to say that most Cancers are a bundle of contradictions. Compassionate and caring with friends, family and lovers, yet they can cut to the bone with their jealous remarks and ever-changing moods. Endearingly eccentric on one hand, and on the other, insecure about how others see them. Like their astrological symbol - the Crab - Cancers can appear hard and insensitive on the outside. However, for those of us who know and love a "Moon Child", we understand that deep below lies a softness and sensitivity that makes them so very special...

Just as the Moon goes through many changes as it moves from its new to full phases, Cancers too go through many new and full phases of experience. Life doesn't stand still for this sign, even if they remain in one place, because they live so much in their internal oceans of emotions. Their link with the Moon often makes it impossible for them to operate on an even keel from day to day. Up and down like the proverbial yo-yo, most Cancerians feel one way one minute, then sometimes totally different the next. But this characteristic is part of their charm.

Love and romance matter more than anything else to this sign (but this occasionally shares first place with having lots of money in the bank). No other sign romances better, equally though, no sign takes it so badly when romance turns sour either. But with their changeable natures Cancerians are fascinating, mysterious, stimulating and extremely alluring. This sign is one of the most magic of all and once their magic has reached you, they are the most beguiling companions. After all, isn't the Moon the most talked about and romantic galactic identity?

Your element: Water

Your ruling planets: The Moon

Symbol: The Crab

Your stone: Moonstone

Life Pursuit: Constant reassurance and intimacy

Vibration: Moody

Cancer's Secret Desire: To feel safe (emotionally, spiritually, romantically and financially)

GEMINI (MAY 21 - JUNE 20)

2011-04-17T01:35:00.000-07:00

The Lovers is linked in astrology to this dual sign Gemini. Part of the Lover's work is to make us aware of the duality of our own natures and how it affects our close personal relationships.

In ancient Greek mythology, Gemini's ruler - Mercury, was the light-footed messenger of the gods who darted back and forth across the heavens delivering news - which might explain why those born under the sign of the 'Twins' are always on the move; thirsty for knowledge and new experiences. Terminally curious and sometimes even mischievous, Geminis are multi-faceted souls who enjoy knowing a little bit of everything but generally not too much about one particular subject. It's just that variety is the spice of their lives!

In Astrology, Geminis have also gained the reputation of being the incessant talkers of the zodiac. Those Twins that don't have the 'gift of the gab' are usually talented writers or have a special interest in foreign languages. In love, they look for a partner who can keep up with them mentally and physically! And, to quote Oscar Wilde, "there's one thing worse than people talking about you, that's people not talking about you." Whether Geminis like it or not, people are usually "talking about them". Together with Scorpio and Virgos, they are a sign that is often discussed, dissected and sometimes even put down by the other signs of the zodiac. Sometimes this is a subtle form of jealousy by others, because Geminis do lead very unique and unusual lives. The Gemini personality can appear mysterious or detached to others and therefore they are often misunderstood and unappreciated for the talents they offer to the world at large.

Another reason Geminis evoke so much interest is many born under this sign are multi-dimensionally talented. In money matters, some Geminis are very adept and quick at making it...and spending it too. Many Geminis are involved in international financial wheeling and dealing. They love the adventure and game playing involved in out-thinking other people. Gemini's can be very haphazard about their financial affairs too, with many of them ending up in divorce courts mainly because their partners have become tired of living on the edge of a financial precipice.

Your element: Air

Your ruling planets: Mercury

Symbol: The Twins

Your stone: Aquamarine

Life Pursuit: To explore a little bit of everything.

Vibration: Intense mental energy

Gemini's Secret Desire: To be ahead of the crowd

TAURUS (APRIL 20 - MAY 20)

2011-04-17T01:27:00.000-07:00

The Hierophant is linked to the sign Taurus and it's astrololgical association is Jupiter, which in astrology rules the ninth house of higher education, organzied religion and theological leaders.

Underneath their cool, calm and collected exterior, Taureans differ greatly from all the other signs of the zodiac. Taureans manage to discreetly stay apart from the crowd, even though they have a well-earned reputation for being socialisers. They will let others get close, but only so close as they want them. Some claim that trying to get your point across to a Taurean, should they not want to hear you, is rather similar to talking to the trees – they simply won't budge. And, there is no such thing as an open-book Taurean. Their feelings, fears and desires often run far deeper than anyone around them would guess. Like the butterfly that chooses to remain hidden in its cocoon until it is ready and prepared to emerge, so the true Taurean spirit remains hidden behind a veneer of day-to-day activities. That's why Taureans are sometimes regarded as snobby, withdrawn, boring, or even sulky.

The truth is, when Taureans manage to operate very adequately on their own form of automatic pilot, they can switch off from the world around them very efficiently. And when they do switch off, they are actually gathering in their inner reserves to deal with the outside pressures. This sign is also very closely connected to 'feeling good'. Most Taureans like their creature comforts and hate change because it takes them out of their automatic pilot condition of separating themselves from the world around them.

Because they hate to be put in jeopardy of any kind, this is the sign that strives to create tomorrow in advance, rather than leave it to fate. In love, Taureans are regarded as extremely sensual beings. An earth sign, they deal well with the personal, physical senses and consequently all the pleasures associated with what they can see, touch, smell and taste, add up to a special delight to them. Often nature and pet lovers, Taureans are closely associated with all things off the earth and nature.

Your element: Earth

Your ruling planets: Venus

Symbol: The Bull

Your stone: Emerald

Life Pursuit: Emotional and financial security

Vibration: Determined energy

Taurus Secret Desire: To have a secure, happy and wealthy life/marriage.

ARIES (MARCH 21 - APRIL 19)

2011-04-17T01:21:00.000-07:00

The Emperor is linked by astrologers to the sign Aries as it is a sign of leadership and energy, where the Emporer draws his energy from fire and governs action, war, conquest and victory.

Aries are fire signs and those born under this element are regarded in astrology as adventurous, active and outgoing. It won't matter where you go or how remote or unusual it is - from the Outback to the Antarctic - you can be sure that an Aries has been there before you (or at the very least you will meet one along the way!) Aries is a uniquely naive sign. Although they are independent, outgoing and assertive they are also surprisingly trusting, often innocently walking into the lion's den at times. No matter what upheaval, challenge or triumph they confront - an Aries has a wonderful ability to bounce back. Their faith in life and the future remains untouched by hardship. Their gift is that they are always children at heart and the world is always a magical place for them. Many famous sports people are born under this sign. Aries is regarded as the most physical sign and because of its Mar's rulership; it is also one of the most highly charged masculine energy signs in astrology. No wonder women born under Aries are forceful, dynamic and aggressive, and as a result these Aries women frequently find themselves with dilemmas surrounding their romantic relationships. For them, a man has to be a 'real man' to deal with an Aries woman, otherwise she intimidates him. And conversely for the Aries male, a woman has to be a real woman to deal with him, because he is looking for many balancing component traits (his true feminine side) in his partner. She has to run the gamut in his support system, from the Aries man's best friend, true companion, through to his muse, and yet she must never ever answer him back!

Therefore Aries can be a confusing sign because there is a complex combination of very strong masculine and feminine expressions all combined together. Because of the male energy surrounding it, when a woman is born under Aries, it creates some of the most interesting women in the world, women who are adventurous, independent and have competitive natures. It also tends to make them very forthright.

But whether male or female, Aries people are 'doers' rather than 'talkers'. They are the impulsive, act first, ask questions or have doubts later, sign of the zodiac. That's why their lives are often filled with many dramas and sometimes even accidents! Their ability to live life close to the edge provides them with a wealth of 'real experience' to call upon. When an Aries person talks about something or somewhere they've usually done it or been there, rather than simply read about it in a book. Being active people Aries can't adapt to any kind of restriction, particularly possessive relationships. They often travel to escape any feelings of being stuck or possessed. Aries people love challenges. In fact, if everything is running smoothly, they are quite capable of going out and doing something (sometimes quite foolish) to rock the boat. Aries love to race in where angels fear to tread.

Your element: Fire

Your ruling planets: Mars

Symbol: The Ram

Your stone: Ruby

Life Pursuit: The thrill of the moment

Vibration: Enthusiastic

Aries Secret Desire: To lead the way for others.

Moon Void of Course

2011-04-10T02:16:00.000-07:00

The Moon becomes void when it's not making any major aspects to the other planets. This happens every few days for a time period ranging from a few minutes to a day or more. So knowing when the Moon becomes Void of Course is an easy way to begin to watch the effect of this closest heavenly body to earth; the Moon.

Simply put, what this means from a practical standpoint, is that anything that is started when the Moon is void of course, doesn't pan out. Starting a new business? Don't make it official until the void period is over. Looking for an engagement date? Avoid the times that the Moon is void if you want to play it safe. One more thing. Don't push the send button on an important e-mail until the Moon void period is over. That is, unless you want nothing to come of it. Fretting over a possible negative outcome for a court case, a health issue or whatever? The void of course definition still applies-nothing comes of it.

Can you override the effect of a void Moon? Maybe, but be prepared to double your efforts and then hope and pray for the best. Now, we have to tell you, the reverse strategy of starting something important when the Moon is not void doesn't guarantee success but we do know that starting something important when it is void, nearly always holds true .... Nothing much happens. We also know that if we can avoid hang-ups and disappointments, that's enough to make us want to check our calendar.

When the Moon is Void of Course... Best to meditate, take it easy and avoid starting important new projects.

(Moon enters) this is when the Moon Ends the Moon void period ... Okay to initiate important new projects.

Remember, it may be void for only a few minutes to as long as 2 days.

Japenese Tsunami

2011-03-18T02:26:00.005-07:00

The world has been watching, waiting, and praying for Japan ever since a massive 8.9 earthquake hit Friday, triggering a deadly tsunami, which according to news reports from the Japanese media reported that there are at least 6,000 people either dead or missing.
Friday's 9.0-magnitude earthquake has also left millions with little food or shelter, as temperatures drop to near-freezing levels overnight. Hospitals are overwhelmed with the injured and running out of medicine and supplies and authorities were also running out of coffins to bury the dead.
It is a devastating time for those who are suffering with loved ones consoling each other throughout this devastated country.
At times like this, Death’s gift is hard to accept for it is cloaked in darkness, the journey for the victims and surviviors is lonely, frightening and in some cases without hope. We wish to take this time to ask that God & the Angels to watch over and help heal the country's victims, by comforting them with their love and guiding them back into the light during this, their journey of grief.
Love, light & angel blessings

Because I could not stop for Death

BECAUSE I could not stop for Death--

He kindly stopped for me--

The Carriage held but just Ourselves--

And Immortality.

We slowly drove--He knew no haste

And I had put away

My labour and my leisure too,

For His Civility--

We passed the School, where Children strove

At Recess--in the Ring--

We passed the Fields of Gazing Grain--

We passed the Setting Sun--

Or rather--He passed Us--

The Dews drew quivering and chill--

For only Gossamer, my Gown--

My Tippet--only Tulle--

We paused before a House that seemed

A Swelling of the Ground--

The Roof was scarcely visible--

The Cornice--in the Ground--

Since then--'tis Centuries--and yet

Feels shorter than the Day

I first surmised the Horses Heads

Were toward Eternity--

Aura's

2011-03-18T02:26:00.003-07:00

Chinese medical pratitioners call it chi, Hindu mystics refer to it as shakti, medical intuitives call it an energy field and Occultists refer to it as an aura. It's existence has been recorded since ancient times, notably in primitive art. In the Sahara desert, for instance, in the rocky massifs of that harsh terrain, paintings that date back to the ninth millenium B.C. show human figures surrounded by an envelope of light. In Catholic literature, these luminous orbs are decpicted as halos.
This energy field is the essense of who we are, a subtle variation underlying everything phsycial, both living and inanimate - some of us may see it more easily whereas others may feel it. The energy field radiates outward from the body, forming a dome of light that can be several inches or several feet wide, depending on the individuals emotional, spiritual and physical state at any given time. It's composed of at least seven energy disks or chakras that run down the center of the psychical body, from the crown of the head to the base of the spine. Each of these chakras has a different color and function, which are important to medical intuitives.

Spell to Improve your Psychic Awareness

2011-03-18T02:25:00.000-07:00

This is a spell to help you develop intuition and open up channels of higher awareness, to awaken psychic abilities that will give you personal guidance and comfort you with the assurance of spiritual existence. The layout of the cards takes the shape of a crown (see the picture above) as a crown sits on top of the head, so it symbolizes expanded consciousness and awareness beyond your senses bringing forth hidden knowledge.
The Star represents inspiration and guidance from your guardian angel and cosmic forces. It complements and gives power to The High priestess, which is a card of focusing the mind, developing intuition and listening to your inner voice. The Hermit stands for the revelation and interpretation of knowledge, being used here to aid your understanding of the dreams, visions and intuitions that will come to you.
Necessary accessories for this spell are one candle (white, blue or purple) anointed with Frankincense oil, placed a few inches above the High priestess card, a dark blue alter cloth and as an option you can have a crystal or gem stone clear in color.
This spell is best performed either very early in the morning or late in the night when the world is quiet and you are unlikely to be disturbed, take a bath beforehand to cleanse all the days toxins from your body and to help clear your mind.
When you are ready, place the candle you have chosen on the alter cloth and light it. For a duration of between thirty seconds to three minutes, focus on the flame, putting everything else out of your mind (if you have opted to have a crystal or gemstone you may hold it in your right hand while doing this meditation and throughout the spell process to give power to the crystal). For a further 30 seconds to three minutes, close your eyes and hold the image of the flame in your mind. Once you have finished concentrating on the flame, set The Star in place and for a few moments, visualize yourself walking alongside a lake under a star-filled sky and from time to time pausing to dip your feet into the water. Feel the coolness and pleasantness of the water as it laps around your feet; feel that you are at one with the lake and the land and the stars that glow with ever-increasing intensity in the sky above you. Then spread your arms outward (both in visualization and actuality) and say aloud:

“I call upon the wide-ranging powers!

I call upon all good and friendly spirits of guidance!

Aid me now in opening my psychic centers!

Help me learn to open myself to the knowledge and the guidance which I seek!”

Next, set the High Priestess in place, as indicated on the picture above. Imagine that you continue to walk along the lakeshore until you come to a temple. The temple will take whatever shape your imagination wants to give it. Visualize yourself going up to the door of the temple, you pull on the doors, but you find them locked. You try again; this time just touching your hand to the door handle, surprisingly the door swings wide open. You enter into the corridor of the temple, now pause and say aloud:

“I unlock the doors,

I enter the temple,

I go within,

I am at one with the secret knowledge.

I see with other eyes,

I hear with other ears,

I feel with other senses”.

Now, set The Hermit in place. Envision yourself going deeper into the temple. You pass through several rooms; finally you pass through a door into a large but darkened room. Two pillars are standing there – the ones pictured in High Priestess card. Between those pillars stands an alter, and on that alter is your candle. You walk up to the candle, hold your hands above it, feeling the warmth of the flame (both in visualization and actuality) and say aloud:

“All is made clear

Hidden knowledge is brought forth

In the light of understanding”.

At this point, visualize you are no longer in the temple, you have magically transported back home, and are sitting in your own chair with the cards and the candle before you.

Now as you sit quietly, make yourself very aware of you physical body, then do the following visualization exercise. Start expanding your conscious mind outward in a spiral pattern. Start with your body, and make you senses circle around, taking in all the sights and sounds. Scan in an ever-widening spiral, taking in the room that you are sitting in, sweeping through your house, scanning your garden and the road outside, reaching even farther out to take in the houses and the buildings of your neighbors, ranging farther still, spiraling through your neighborhood, your town, your country, the world and outward into space. Then reverse the process and bring your consciousness in closer and closer, retracing the spiral until you have pulled back into yourself, sitting in your chair.

At this point, carefully and with as much feeling as you can recite the following affirmation:

“I am open and receptive to higher levels of consciousness.

Spirits of guidance are here for me and I channel the knowledge they offer.

I am open and receptive.

My psychic centers are quickened.

I open my eyes and ears to all impressions and intuitions that are coming to me.

I spread the veil of being that I may look beyond.

I open the windows of where and when and I see beyond.”

Now, sit back, relax and let go of all your thoughts. Empty your mind, but open your awareness – you have started the process of psychic awareness in motion and you will find hunches and insights coming to you at unexpected moments.

To complete the session, just extinguish the candle and put away your cards.

Karma Tarot Spread

2011-03-18T02:24:00.003-07:00

Why do certain people come into our lives? Most of us have had relationships that feel very significant, whether for good or ill. Some people are convinced that they have known someone in a previous life because they seem so familiar or they share such strong emotional links. We might be absolutely certain that we have met someone for a particular reason, usually because we love them and they bring us joy. Yet we can learn a lot from our more difficult relationships too, especially if we are prepared to examine our motives with some degree of objectivity.

The following spread is called the Karma Spread because it enables you to explore a relationship in detail, both from your own perspective and from that of the other person. You can use it for any sort of relationship, although you may find it most informative when examining one that is stressful because it will give you greater understanding of what is going on between those involved.

Karma Spread:

1. What you can learn from the other person
2. What you can give the other person.
3. What separates you from the other person.
4. What unites you with the other person.
5. Your greatest gift to them.
6. What the other person can learn from you.
7. What the other person can give you.
8. What separates the other person from you.
9. What unites the other person with you.

FREE Spell for Lost Pets

2011-03-18T02:23:00.003-07:00

We experience many kinds of love in our life and one of the strongest and most enduring involves the animals in our lives. Pets that are happy and loved don't have any reason to leave home. But animals sometimes get disorientated, especially after a move - here is a spell that will bring a lost pet home to you.

Tools:
Photo of your pet or an effigy that symbolizes it
Pinch of vervain
Pinch of myrrh
Pinch of sage
4 white candles

Ritual:
Put the photo of your pet or its effigy in a prominent place.
Place 4 white candles around it.
Sprinkle the herbs around the photo or effigy.
As you light the candles and the incense (if using), hold the mental image of your pet. Visualize your pet coming home safely, in good health. Feel the joy you'll experience when this happens, get your feelings behind it, then say the following:

(Name) comes home to me,
so mote it be.
(Name) comes home to me
healthy, protected, and safe,
no longer a little waif.
(Name) comes home to me,
through the power of three,
so mote it be.

Let the candles burn out on their own. Keep your pet's photo or effigy displayed until your animal returns home. Then bury it in the backyard, so that your pet will always remain close to home.

NOTE: NEVER LEAVE BURNING CANDLES UNATTENDED AND LEAVE OUT OF REACH FROM CHILDREN.

Blessed Be

Tips of Spellcasting

2011-03-18T02:23:00.001-07:00

First and foremost, especially for beginners, find a quiet location where you will not be distracted or interrupted. Take time to prepare yourself and your spell. DO NOT HURRY. You will be working with one of the most powerful forces in the universe, treat it as such.

Remain focused and be specific. Don't be shy about specifying that which you desire. Always keep in mind that magick works best when you are clear regarding your needs or desires. Focus your power. Work on one thing at a time. Casting a spell for multiple wishes never works.

Timing is very important. Casting your spell at the proper time will enhance its power. Days of the week and phases of the moon all have specific energies associated with them. By choosing the right time for a spell, you can help to insure its effectiveness.

Choose your words carefully. If it is a spell you have written yourself you have a little leeway, but if its an established spell, practice before you begin, there's a reason it is written that way. Many practitioners, some claiming great experience, fail to heed this admonition and while they have some limited success it remains just that - limited. The words are important. The language in which the spell is written or cast does not matter - it is all in the intention conveyed by the words.

Remember the importance of symbols. When casting a spell it is always best to surround yourself with appropriate objects that will serve to enhance the power of the spell.

MOST IMPORTANTLY, be careful. Act responsibly. We're sure you've heard the old saying, "be careful what you wish for, you might just get it!" Well, with spell casting you can multiply that saying many times over. Be very careful what you ask for and how you ask for it - you may get much more than you bargained for!

Another FREE Love Spell

2011-03-18T02:22:00.005-07:00

For those of you that are a little in the "doldrums" then here is a free spell that will bring your lovemaking with your partner to a "shuddering" climax. It is a wickedly good spell for wonderful lovemaking designed for heightened pleasure and sexual satisfaction.

You will need:

A small clear glass jar with a lid (an empty baby food jar works well)

A hair from your lover

One of your own hairs,

Two apple seeds

Apple cider vinegar

Full pinch of baking soda

White fabric

Beeswax candle

Ritual
Place the piece of white fabric on a table top.
Light the beeswax candle and place it on the table.
Turn the jar upside down and hold it open end down over the burning candle for a few seconds (just long enough to allow smoke from the candle to enter the jar.
Turn the jar right side up and place it on the table.
Fill the jar 1/2 full with the apple vinegar.
Into the vinegar place your hair, your lovers hair and the two apple seeds and swirl the jar to fully wet the hairs.

Holding the candle in the left hand, speak the following words:

In the mixture is the start
To build desire of the heart
Grow and boil in fires flame
Desire that no kiss can tame
Shudder, shake with waves of pleasure
Far too great to ever measure

Drop the full pinch of baking soda into the jar (don't touch the jar until the contents have settled). Once they have fully settled, place the lid on the jar, extinguish the candle and hide the jar in the room where the lovemaking will take place.

Enjoy!

Merry meet!

Love & Relationship Tarot Spread

2011-03-18T02:22:00.003-07:00

Our love & relationship Tarot spread is based on the traditional horseshoe spread but we've made some changes and designed it so that it specifically answers and focuses on your love & relationship questions/situation.

Laying out the cards:

Select 7 cards and turn each one up as you select it and place it in position (see the diagram to the left).

Card 1: The Past - What has contributed to current circumstances or relationship dynamics?
Card 2: The Present - How you feel and think about your personal life now. This offers a subjective view of your partner or your single state.
Card 3: Hopes and Fears - This position reveals your hopes, fears, wishes and desires - and your unconscious expectations too. If you are still in love with a former partner or are unknowingly sabotaging your new relationship - you will find out here.
Card 4: Conflicts - This covers emotional, sexual, spiritual or practical difficulties. For example financial problems might be undermining self-esteem, a potential partner might have to relocate, differing sexual styles and needs could be creating underlying tensions and so on.
Card 5: Outside influences - What else is influencing your situation? This covers former partners, children, friends, in-laws and even workmates or neighbors.
Card 6: Action - What action should you take? This card suggests whether this is a good time to confront the issue or whether you would be better advised to wait until circumstances are more favorable.
Card 7: Outcome - The probable outcome if you follow the advice of Card 6.

This spread works best when you frame your questions clearly: for example "is X interested in a relationship with me?" If your question involves choices or different scenarios, then ask a separate question for each aspect of your situation: for example a question such as "Should I go out with X or try again with Y?" needs breaking down into two questions. Work out your question or questions carefully to get the best out of any reading.

Year Ahead and Zodiac Tarot Spread

2011-03-18T02:22:00.001-07:00

Has the last year been good to you? For some of you the previous year may have been filled with challenges, obstacles and changes that have taken the zest out of life leaving some of you filled with apprehension as to what to expect in the coming New Year. Well whether you've had a good year or a bad year you can get comfort in the fact that each New Year provides us the ability to start anew, set goals and with any luck have a better, happier and more prosperous year than the last.

One way of getting a glimpse into what the New Year has in store for us is through utilizing the Tarot. There are various spreads available specifically geared towards the New Year. One of the most common is called The Zodiac Spread which provides a couple different options to obtain a yearly based reading. The typical Zodiac Spread is similar to the Celtic Cross. This spread looks at different aspects and areas of your life.

We lay the cards out in the form of a clock and divide your chart into the 12 "houses" of the astrological chart (see the image to the left). To do this spread, pull 13 cards placing them in the circle starting with the one o'clock position, then two o'clock going through the sequence until 12 o'clock, with the final card being laid in the center of the clock representing the overall outcome or summary.

The cards in each position are as follows:

1. The unexpected, or what will dominate your near future
2. Your financial life
3. Your surroundings or travel
4. Your home or family
5. Your love life, creation or children
6. Your present work situation or health
7. Relationships, partnerships or authority
8. Money from others, credit or spiritual power
9. Traveling and study
10. The unexpected or your professional life
11. Your friends and projects
12. Your health or difficulties.

13. final outcome.

Another method of The Zodiac Spread is the month-by-month spread in which you pull 13 cards one representing each month of a the year and the final card indicates the overall general atmosphere you are likely to experience over the coming year according to the influences and elements present at the time of the reading.

Months that have a Major Arcana card land in that position will signify an important month. Any Aces that appear indicate a chance for new beginnings or a fresh start so pay particular attention to those cards and influences.

These are only a few examples but they are quite effective and informative in providing valuable insight into the New Year. And remember this is only an glimpse of possibilities as nothing is set in stone. Should you encounter a card that doesn't really provide clear insight, feel free to use clarification cards to assist the process.

Court Cards

2011-03-18T02:21:00.001-07:00

To continue on from last weeks post and now that you can see how the numbers work through the "pip" cards of the Tarot, lets look now at their regal companions and the qualities the Kings, Queens, Knights & Pages share.

The Kings and Queens both represent maturity. The Queens embody the more feminine aspects of appreciation of life - connection to family, enjoyment of the world and it's wonders - this does not make them passive however. We only have to look at each one to see their strengths, they are more involved with the world around them and with relationships. The Kings on the other hand, rule. As the final card in the sequence they bear responsibility for society, therefore they make decisions and take action.

Knights are figures of action. Young in character, they want to explore and test their skills. They may be romantic or courageous. At the same time, they bear a responsibility to help others, for that is what knights do. This works well in the more aggressive suits of Swords and Wands, but can develop trouble in the introverted Cups or the stable Pentacles.

Pages are young, they have no responsibility except to learn, to become skilled through immersing themselves in the energy of the suit. In readings, Pages can refer literally to children or students or a person who is entering a new stage in their life.

People who do readings with Tarot cards often describe the court cards as the most difficult to interpret. They do not show an action or a situation or even an idea, but simply a character. Beyond the possibility of identifying actual people in our lives, how do we understand them? Some people find the structure of the court cards sexist, and there is no doubt that the court cards flow from an old fashioned and traditional view of male and female roles, but when doing readings you should go beyond this limitation if you recognize that the cards do not limit themselves in their applications to real people. In readings, a King may symbolize a woman if she shows the special traits of the card, and a man may act out the Queen of Wands, in the way he lives his life or in a particular situation. These are not permanent designations that last a person's whole life! A court card in a Tarot reading says something about a person right now, not for all time! If you think of them as characters in a play, the play doesn't last forever and the performers can change from one character to another while still remaining their essential selves.

The Meaning of the Numbers on Tarot

2011-03-18T02:20:00.002-07:00

ACES - signify singularity and purity, they represent the basic quality of the suit, it's "root". They come t us as a gift from life, moments of special energy - the quality of that energy depending on each particular suit.
TWO'S - indicate duality, connections, dialogue. The various two's deal with issues of communication and relationship, where the Aces inspire, the two's act to develop and extend the original impulse. When you go through the deck you will see that the character of a particular suit may work against the quality of the number. Cups symbolize love, while Swords represent conflict and tension. In the Rider Waite deck image, the Two of Cups fulfills the number in the image of two people pledging themselves to each other. By contrast, the Two of Swords works against the number that it bears, with it's picture of a woman who deliberately keeps everyone away from her. The central issue remains communication but in the Two of Swords we see it's direction changed. (see images depicted on the left)
THREE'S - By combining 1 & 2, the three's embody an early fulfillment of the suit. The basic impulse int he Ace, which is developed in the Two, becomes established in the Three. The suit changes the "quality" of the number, for pentacles this can mean mastery at work, for Swords it can mean heartbreak, for Wands success and for Cups harmony.
FOUR'S - symbolize structure. We use the energy to build something, or dwell within a safe place or hold onto what we have or resist structure when it becomes confinement.
FIVE'S - show loss and struggle. Five introduces time, with all it's limitations, including sickness and death. Five brings us into physical reality and so opens us all to the problems life can bring us.SIX'S - allow a fresh beginning after the five's. They express issues of communication and the sharing of power and wealth.
SEVEN'S - here we find the them "victory", the person plays with possibilities and seeks victory over challenges through strength of will or through schemes and fantasies.
EIGHT'S - There is a theme of movement in the eight's, either toward consolidation or leaving what is already established. Eight is another number that can conflict with the energy of the suit, such as in Swords where the suit represents trouble and conflict, so when the Swords come up against the idea of movement the result becomes obstacles, they way in which we can feel controlled by others and unable to move to free ourselves.
NINE'S - the last single digit number, it can represent a tension before the "end". Something is established but not without a price, the various cards show different compromises we make with life in order to create a place for ourselves in the world.
TEN'S - they complete the suits. We see the most complete expression qualities as they establish us in the real world. However, not all the suits translate completion into happiness. For Wands with their impulse to take on responsibilities and burdens, with the ten this becomes oppressive. Swords show us the extreme of conflict. Pentacles, the suit of money and physical reality, we get a sense of security and wealth, but somehow this is empty of emotion. Only in Cups do we find true joy apparent.

FREE LOVE SPELL

2011-03-18T02:20:00.000-07:00

We want all of you to share in the love this month!

This weeks blog post is offering you a simple love spell that you can do yourself. Although you can use professionals to do it for you, we encourage you to cast this simple spell yourself.

How Spells Work

We have found through experience that casting spells really works, but only, if it is for your higher good and the good of all those involved. It is our belief that they work with the Universal Laws of energy to bring you what you desire. The problem is that sometimes what we desire is not always what is best for our true happiness and Spiritual growth. The saying 'be careful what you ask for, because you will get it' is a very important concept to consider when casting. Read more

Facts About Spells

Casting a spell is a skill like any other. Few people can manifest their desires on their first try and you should never expect them to always be successful and immediate. This is a skill that takes time and practice. If you find you have had no success, maybe you have yet to see the results so be patient and allow your desires to manifest themselves. Sometimes waiting for results may not be so easy for you so the best advice we can give is just to be patient as often the spell will work to bring you an opportunity that you were completely unaware of needing or wanting. Spells will not work if it's just not meant to be, we believe in having faith, spell work will work on some level, whether it’s to give you a better understanding of how you can grow and learn from your current situation.

Spells can also cause unexpected things to happen. This sometimes occurs if you are unclear in the use of our words or pronunciations. So ask yourself were you distracted when you were casting? Have you practiced enough? Keep trying and educate yourself, read about how to do it and don't get discouraged.

To get you started we’re including this easy Love Spell for first time spell casters - here it goes!

Essential Ingredients

Sheet of gold paper

Nine of hearts (from a normal pack of playing cards)

Black pen

Box of matches

Enamel bowl

Magic Formula

· Cast a pentacle circle of protection (the purpose of this circle is to enable you safely to achieve your mental projections with no interferences from negative, unbalancing, inappropriate energies and forces – not all spirits have your best interests at heart!)

- To create your circle, you need to imagine that the divine powers which you have chosen for your spell have sent you a ray of silver light. The light is so bright and electrifying that you reach out with both hands and grasp it. The energy of the light will travel down from your fingertips to the palm of your hand and thence to the rest of your body.

- Next envisage a bright silver circle forming around you – this circle should include your alter. Then through your mind’s eye create an imaginary pentacle at each of the four geographical directions around your alter.

- Now that you’ve created the safety net around your sacred area, you must invite healing energies to purify your circle. This can be achieved by imagining a second beam of light which is bright blue. This will fill up the inside of your circle, so that it has the affect of enveloping you. This will cleanse your circle while at the same time send healing energies into your mind and body helping you feel relaxed and secure.

· Write your wish on the gold paper and wrap it around the nine of hearts

· Burn both items, leaving the ashes in the enamel bowl until your wish is fulfilled.

If you are still unsuccessful with the free love spells or other spells you have found or are insecure in your spell casting, you should consider calling in a professional witch or spell caster. Professional Spell Casters (such as us) will be able to channel more energy and direct this energy to the desired outcome. Sometimes free spells don’t work because the person who is doing them doesn’t quite believe in them or they aren’t sure of what they are doing. By turning to a professional, you can be certain you will get the results you want. Sometimes, it’s just better to leave these spell workings to professionals. With professional witches and spell casters, you can get the things you want and the things you deserve in your life. Our skills and our experience will tap into the power of the universe and the magick of the world to ensure you find the happiness and contentment you want.

Do's & Don'ts of Spellcasting

2011-03-18T02:18:00.001-07:00

If you want to try casting a spell yourself here are some Do’s and Don’ts that we recommend!

v DO always ask for the spell to happen in an appropriate way and that it shall not cause harm to you or anyone else.

v DO cast all spells within a pentacle circle of protection and while you are in the alpha state.

v DO ask for your magic to work for the good of all.

v DO take your time with each spell, carefully thinking it through and considering the consequences of your projections.

v DO make sure you have taken all practical protective measures before casting a spell of protection. For example, if you are in trouble, you should first contact the appropriate authorities (doctor, police etc) before casting a spell to reinforce protection.

v DON’T ever use magic to cause harm or as a weapon to threaten people. Your action and thoughts will come back to you threefold.

v DON’T be flippant when you are casting spells. Think carefully about what you are saying and what you project. Use your intuition as well as your intellect.

v DON’T cast spells with children or pets in the same room.

v DON’T cast spells during an eclipse because the moon will affect the outcome unfavourably.

v DON’T overdo magic. If you cast too many spells in a month you will burn out the magic energy.

v DON’T doubt magical powers once a spell has been cast by you or for you as it will weaken the spell.

v DON’T discuss your spells once they are released.

If you’ve been unsuccessful with the free love spells or other spells you have found, you should consider calling in a professional witch or spell caster. Professional Spell Casters (such as me) will be able to channel more energy and direct this energy to the desired outcome. Sometimes free spells don’t work because the person who is doing them doesn’t quite believe in them or they aren’t sure of what they are doing. By turning to a professional, you can be certain you will get the results you want. Sometimes, it’s just better to leave these spell workings to professionals.

With professional witches and spell casters, you can get the things you want and the things you deserve in your life. Our skills and our experience will tap into the power of the universe and the magick of the world to ensure you find the happiness and contentment you want.

The Journey of The Fool through the Major Arcana

2011-03-18T02:17:00.001-07:00

The Major Arcana is the progression of the trumps where the Fool begins a life journey. The Magician is 1 because his qualities form the starting point of the growth pattern figured in the other cards. Each trump builds upon the previous one and leads the way to the next. Setting the Fool apart into a separate category all by itself allows him to be everywhere and anywhere within the trumps and also leaves you with 21 cards which are divided into three groups of seven cards.

The division into three allows you to see the Major Arcana as dealing with three distinct areas of experience. These are called consciousness – the practical plane – the outer concerns of life in society; subconscious – the mental plane – the search inward for who we really are and superconscious – the spiritual plane – the developmental awareness and the release of archetypical energy.

The first line, with its concentration on such matters as love, social authority and education, describes the main concerns of society. A person can live and die and be judged a success by everyone around them without ever going beyond the level of the Chariot – and many people do not reach that level at all.

Psychology concerns itself with the second line, with their symbols of hermit-like withdrawal into the self-awareness followed by a symbolic Death and rebirth. Temperance at the end represents that part of ourselves which we discover to be essentially real after the illusions of ego, defensiveness and rigid habits of the past are allowed to die away.

And finally the last line. These seven cards depict a confrontation and finally a unity with the great forces of life itself. The other cards, formerly seen so important to you become merely the preparation for the great descent into darkness, the liberation of light and the return of that light to the sunlit world of consciousness.

As a reader when dealing with the last line of the Major Arcana you deal with an area uncomfortable to most people as the subject matter is religious and mystical. If you look into this last line of cards (and I mean beyond their divinatory meanings in readings) it can make the task of understanding these cards much much harder, but once understood the more rewarding working with these cards are, as they can bring you a knowledge that has been neglected in our education.

The more you study the Tarot and the more readings you give, the more information they give you and the more enlightened you become both as a person and as a reader. As a reader I believe you never stop learning with the Tarot. The Tarot offers you guidance and truth to any situation and when a reading is given by an experienced reader a person gain's the direction and insight which allow them to make informed decisions so as to give them the best outcome.

Magic and the Phasis of the Moon

2011-03-18T02:16:00.001-07:00

The moon is a powerful symbol of the Triple Goddess, who represents the spiritual growth of wisdom and the evolution of a woman from innocent maiden to loving mother and thence to wise one. These stages are also a reflection of the four lunar phases – the dark of the moon, the waxing moon, the full moon and the waning moon.
Purely in it’s own right the power of the moon and the timing of it’s phases can either enhance or disrupt our bodily rhythms and our lives. The moon affects us, police and doctors often comment on an increase in suicides and disagreements around the full moon, where it seems to bring out our “animal” nature. Similarly if you have days when you feel quite fragile and over-sensitive, your heart dictating to you and holding sway over reason and logical thinking – this is the influence of the moon working on your mind and body.
Consulting the moon and an astrological chart is a vital part of spell-casting. Some days are more beneficial for casting certain spells than other times.

New Moon

The dark of the moon, when the moon is invisible or the new moon itself, is the most effective time for casting spells concerning new beginnings and the launch of new projects. It is generally a time for taking new paths and making fresh plans established on the basis of past experiences. The influence of the new moon can also boost ambitions and careers, so it is a productive time for sowing seeds of success.

During the new moon, money & career spells and are fulfilled quicker than at other times.

Waxing Moon

The waxing moon is the period between the new moon and the full moon. This is a special time for accumulating strength and for expansion and growth. The waxing moon aids the accomplishments of any undertakings, whether of a practical or spiritual nature.

This is a good time to cast empowerment spells.

Full Moon

The full moon is the most fortuitous time, especially when it is approaching the witching hour of midnight where our inner strengths and magical powers are at their peak. Casting love spells during the full moon assures enchanting outcomes.

Waning Moon

This is the period when the moon journeys from full to new moon. Casting spells for removing problems, eliminating trouble and neutralizing adversaries are most affective when the moon is wane. Protection spells for yourself, your loved ones, your home and material possessions are best cast during this time also.

The waning moon is also a time when our bodies are must more susceptible to cleansing so it is the best time to cast purification/stop addiction spells.
On a final note, a spell should never be cast during an eclipse of the moon as this will influence the outcome of the spell by producing an undesirable result.

Using Tarot for Meditation

2011-03-18T02:15:00.002-07:00

Different people use different methods to bring the card into their meditations. Some start with the eyes closed and do not look at the card until they have reached a certain state; others do the opposite. They begin by staring at the card until they reach a cerain unity with it, then close their eyes and let the images continue from there. Others hold the card at arm's length then draw it slowly towards them "bringing it into the aura".

However you begin I recommend working with the images and the feelings arising from the card instead of the symbolism you have learned to associate with it. Let the picture affect you, allow your reactions to it to surface and then slide away from you before they block any further experience.
Other times I will ignore the actual picture and set some scene associated with it. For instance, for the Fool (see picture to the far left) I sometimes use a simpler image of standing on a mountain top at the cliff edge, drenched in clear sunlight, feeling the "heat" on my face and hear the dog yelping at my feet. Movement or posture can help evoke some cards, as with fool I sometimes sit with my arms wide so I can "feel" the experience, as with The Magician (see card to the near left) I sometimes stand or sit with one arm raised "towards heaven" and the other "pointing at the earth".

Sometimes the meditation will go no further than an awareness of the card or a discover of new ideas about it and about yourself. More likely yuo wil experience the card as a fantasy unrolling before you, with an awareness a the same time of yourself sitting on the floor or lying on the bed.

If you do not have a particular image you wish to work with you can do a reading or simply go through the deck until a card grips you and pulls you into it. Then place it infront of you and begin your normal meditation. Become aware of the picture, putting aside any ideas you might have about it. Keep your eyes closed or opened, depending on what works for you; most poeple find that at leasat when the fantasy starts they prefer their eyes closed. Try to see and feel yourself in that place with those people and animals.

Tarot Magic

2011-03-18T02:15:00.000-07:00

I have been reading Tarot Cards for over 15 years and can honestly say that I still find them fascinating. Not only the wisdom that transcends every culture, creed and religion, but the pleasure of being able to meditate over the direction the cards take you as you concentrate over personal challenges. I take my work very seriously and take a personal interest in making sure my Tarot cards are used with great respect, as I believe they really are a fantastic tool to help you understand the importance of getting the balance right between the mind, body, soul and spirit. In general the Tarot is used for divinatory purposes; that is, an attempt to understand what has gone before you and to discover what the future holds. Being a Tarot reader and a person who has enormous respect for the Tarot I know that the person having the reading receives a kind of reassurance that prepares them for certain events that will happen and offers them insight and helpful guidance for what is yet to come, while also offering them lessons to be learnt for what has passed before them.
However, this is not the Tarot’s only use as with its rich layers of symbolism the Tarot provides the perfect focus for spell casting. They provide an extremely potent source of magic as Tarot cards can be used as filters through which unseen spiritual forces enter the physical plane, which I am sure any Tarot reader can attest to.
Speaking for myself, I can honestly say that using the Tarot for both the purpose of readings and practicing magic, has put me on a path of spiritual development and personal growth, which helps me maintain my self-esteem and fulfil my dreams. By using the Tarot it helps me take advantage of the powers that we all possess, as they allow me to bring about positive changes in my life and that of others.
As every reader knows, Tarot cards reveal mystical and philosophical truths through their pictures, taking you and the person receiving the reading on a journey of discovery, and for this very reason the Tarot’s psychic and psychological validity has been proven. As a result it is becoming more and more popular for use in meditation and for other purposes such as magic for example.
New Age Philosophy teaches us that as ordinary people we can transform our daily lives and achieve our goals through magical thinking and we can find our own power and breakthrough our limitations by bringing our outer worlds into harmony with our inner selves and by phrasing our thoughts and actions into positive thinking. In this way the Tarot has special uses for me. When using the Tarot in magic it enables me to see both myself and others in an ageless and magical setting.
I use the Ryder Waite deck for some of my spells as I like to use the basic interpretations represented through the symbolic images in the Ryder Waite deck, the whole spectrum of spiritual realities is represented in the symbols of the major arcana and every conceivable scenario or experience is represented in the minor arcana.
When doing some spells, certain aspects of the artwork in a Tarot card take on importance, the Moon for example, is generally a card which pertains to emotions as well as the mysteries of the subconscious mind, however it can also be used in a spell to benefit animals, since there are dogs depicted in the artwork and there are no cards in the Tarot specifically designated to represent pets. The possible meanings for some cards go on and on, but there’s a common thread of interpretation running through the Tarot and in general the symbols on the Ryder Waite cards speak for themselves in the context of the spells for which they are used.
Negative cards such as the Devil are used very seldom and used when it’s necessary to explain a particular situation, such as ridding oneself of an extremely negative or destructive person. The way figures are posed in the cards is significant to some of my spells. For example, in spells that seek to bring forth secrets or hidden information, the Hermit, representing discovery, is placed to the right of the High Priestess, representing secrets, so that the Hermit’s lamp is held up pointing to the High Priestess.
I use the cards that tend to be strong and positive, such as the Sun, the World, Temperance and the Star which are used over and over again in my spells as they’re just such powerful and lucky cards that I love putting them to good!
In conclusion, when casting a spell you should always abide by the “ethics of magic”, once you adhere to these rules you are simply reaching out in time and transferring something that karma has entitled you to, taking it from a future place in time and into the present day. Therefore there is no way you can ever bring anything to yourself through magic which you are not entitled. So when someone says “are spells guaranteed to work?” the answer is “that magic works differently for different people”. For some, the results are almost instantaneous, for others they come more slowly; and for some, not at all, but on the whole most people can expect to get reasonably impressive results in a relatively short period of time. But if a spell does not appear to work than it could just be that there are certain things you have to go through in life and from these experiences you will learn and become much wiser as a result.
So in casting some spells the Tarot deck becomes my basic instrument and I use it to create incredible experiences for those of you who are prepared to try it!

Challenging the Misconceptions of Witchcraft

2011-03-18T02:13:00.000-07:00

I had a conversation with friends over the weekend and I am still surprised at some of the misconceptions out there when it comes to Witches & Spell Casters! Even as are a decade into the new Millenium, some strange ideas about Spell Casters still exist, some comical, others more serious.

The witches of fairy-tale and pantomimie are usually portrayed as old hags with discoloured skin, hooked noses, pointed chins, rotten teetch and unsightly carbuncles on their faces. Clad of course with pointed hats and black cloats, with a black cat and lets not forget that broomstick!!. And lets not forget Merlin, with his long cloak, long white beard, staff and his dusty cave.

Present day witches and spell casters bear no resemblance of these stereotypes. Like most women, we are interested in our appearance, taking care of our bodies and complexions and dressing in fashionable clothes. We do wear ceremonial robes for certain rituals but like uniforms everywhere, these confer a certain authority and confidence, serving to focus the mine on the task in hand ... and who needs a broomstick when you can use a car!!

More serious are the allegations that Witchcraft is connected with Satanism or Devil Worship, which are totally untrue. Witchcraft has never any connectins or even any similarityes with Satanism or Devil-worshipping, and this still holds true today.

We do NOT worship Satan/the Devil or any other related figure

We believe in the power and strenght of the ancient Gods and Goddesses and in our abilities to promote and bring about goodness.

We believe in channelling positive and healing energies into the universe and also in taking strict measures to neutralize and counteract negative, harmful, dangerous and destructive forces. Hence the need for the pentacle circle of protection or Invoking your Guardian Angel so that you can achieve a closer connectin with the forces of the universal good before setting out on the road of magic.

Our laws strictly state that we shall not cause harm to anyone - adult, child or animal - and that ALL life is sacred and muster therefore be respected. We never use our energies to destroy, kill or harm any living creature, unlike the followers of Satan.

We do NOT sacrifice animals whereas Satanists do.

I hope I have imparted some knowledge to you to ensure you that the Craft of White Magic is there to bring you hope and an abundance of goodness.

Blessings ...

Reversed Tarot Cards

2011-03-17T02:25:00.000-07:00

Reversed cards have multiple connotations and are sometimes difficult to interpret. Some authors and readers suggest using only upright cards and will turn cards over if they appear reversed in a spread. The practice of using only upright cards limits the number of distinct delineations to seventy-eight, whereas the use of reversed cards doubles that number of possible card interpretations. I feel that a reversed card must have some significance even thought it's meaning may at times be elusive. If nothing else, reversed cards call attention to themselves and require extra effort to view in a spread. The only card that is naturally reversed in the Tarot is The Hanged Man, which may provide a clue to the meaning of other Tarot cards appearing in their reversed position. The Hanged Man (see image) advised us to view matters from a different and often more spiritual of internal perspective. Perhaps cards falling reversed also challenge us to change out outlook or approach to the upright meaning of the card.

We have come across readers in our profession who are of the opinion "there are enough negative cards in Tarot why is there a need to reverse them?" and certainly some authors (but not all) believe that, like the cards of the suit of Swords, reversed cards may carry a negative association. A predominance of reversed cards in a reading can sometimes suggest problems, obstacles, delays, hindrances, difficult decisions, the need for mental effort, anxieties, worries, illnesses, stress, bad news, and broken relationships - but only if the actual content of the cards is consistent with this interpretation. Each card, whether upright or reversed, must be interpreted in the context of the entire spread.

It is important to note that reversed cards are not necessarily negative. The archetypal meaning of a card remains the same regardless of it's orientation, but the subjects experience of the meaning of the card may change. Sometimes a reversed card simply means that the upright meaning is difficult to grasp or express. For example, the King of Cups is a card of compassion. When reversed, The King of Cups may refer to a man who lacks compassion (the negative meaning) or to a man who has difficulty expressing his tender emotions. It can also refer to our inability to appreciate the man's affectionate nature. The upright card may express itself in an over, conscious manner whereas the same card reversed may express itself secretly or behind the scenes.

If the upright card carries a postiive connotation, the same card reversed may indicate that the usually positive qualities are being taken to excess. If the upright card carries a negative connotation, the reversed position may mean the ending of a difficult situation. Tarot cards speak to us only in pictures. With the traditional rectangular decks, the cards in a spread may fall either upright or reversed in orientation. It is our belief that the orientation of a card in a spread, whether upright or reversed, bears a significant aspect of the querants situation and should be interpreted as such.
