Simple Crystal Healing Spell
SIMPLE CRYSTAL HEALING SPELL
Needed:
–3 candles- 2 light blue & 1 white
–Allspice & Rosemary (equal parts each) or a Healing type incense
–photo or paper with name of recipient a small quartz crystal
Place the candles on your altar or workspace in a semi-circle with the white candle between the two blue ones. Place your incense burner above the white candle. Place the person’s name in the center of the layout, with the quartz crystal on top. Light the incense then the candles. Center yourself and inhale the incense as you think of all ill health dispelling from the person and instead being replaced by healing energy, much as the air is filled with the smoke of the incense.
Gather your healing energy and when you feel ready, release the energy, directing it through the crystal and to the recipient who’s name or photo is beneath it. Give the recipient the crystal to carry as a charm for continued good health.
Magick Healing Stone
MAGIC HEALING STONE
What you will need: any stone, a green candle and a white one
To make the healing stone: take an average stone from your yard or anywhere else (if you have no yard or they all really suck) or you can purchase one like a tiger’s eye.
Once you’ve got one cast your circle, call your quarters. Do an altar devotion then cleanse consecrate, and empower it. Instill the flame of a green candle and a white one to empower it with healing magic and purify it.
While doing this hold your pentacle over it and say as many healing spells as you know. Then pour holy water on it and you’re done.
Magic Healing Water-Holed Stones
MAGIC HEALING WATER-HOLED STONES
Take a holed stone (naturally holed stones often found in or beside running water or the ocean) and put it in a vessel of clear water. Remove it and the water is possessed of healing vibrations which can be used in healing baths, to anoint a healing charm, and so on. Perform this on the New, waxing, or full moon with the focus on healing and getting better. Place the bowl of water with stone out under the moon to collect Her energies and blessings. Say something along to lines of:
Lady Luna, Bless this water with your healing energies.
Then leave it outside under the light of the moon for nine minutes, nine being a healing number. You might also sit before the water and meditate over it, collecting and projecting healing energies into it. Then bring it indoors, store it in a glass container such as a mason jar and use.
You could also drop a bit of blue food coloring into it and keep it in a vial to carry as a talisman. Use some of it in bathing waters along with a healing herb or oil. You could also anoint your forehead with it or afflicted are and then go deep into a meditative state concentrating on healing the disease/illness/problem.

2016 January 6
Comets and Bright Star
Image Credit & Copyright: Fritz Helmut Hemmerich
Explanation: This timely, telescopic, two panel mosaic spans about 10 full moons across planet Earth’s predawn skies. Recorded as the year began from Tenerife, Canary Islands, near the top of the frame are the faint coma and tail of Comet Borrelly (P/19). A comet with a seven year orbital period, Borrelly’s nucleus was visited by the ion propelled spacecraft Deep Space 1 near the beginning of the 21st century. Anchoring the scene at the bottom is brilliant star Arcturus (Alpha Bootes) and Comet Catalina (C/2013 US10) a first time visitor from the Oort Cloud. Catalina’s yellowish dust tail extends below and right. Buffeted by winds and storms from the Sun, the comet’s complex ion tail sweeps up and toward the right, across most of the field of view. Remarkably, one of the composition’s 30 second exposure subframes also caught the trail of a bright meteor, slashing toward the left between comets and bright star.
Earth Sky News for Jan. 6th: Upcoming, marvelous Venus-Saturn conjunction
Upcoming, marvelous Venus-Saturn conjunction
Once again, tomorrow before dawn – January 7, 2016 – look for the slender waning crescent moon close to the planets Venus and Saturn in the eastern predawn sky. And know that Venus and Saturn are getting close! They’ll be closest on the morning of January 9, with a conjunction on January 9 at 0400 UTC. It’ll be their closest conjunction since August 26, 2006 (and the closest conjunction of any two planets since March 22, 2013).
At their closest, Venus and Saturn will be only 5 arc-minutes (1/12o) apart from one another on the sky’s dome. For some perspective, 1/12o is the equivalent of 1/6 of the apparent diameter of a full moon.
Get up early, or around 90 to 75 minutes before sunrise, to view fainter Saturn snuggling up close to dazzling Venus. If you get up late – say less than one hour before sunrise – aim your binoculars at Venus to view Saturn and Venus taking stage in the same binocular field.
And, by the way, Venus reached its highest point in the predawn sky some while ago. Day by day, it’s sinking downward in the direction of sunrise, while Saturn is climbing upward. Before much longer, Saturn will shine above Venus in the January 2016 morning sky.
Also, look for modestly-bright Mars roughly midway between Venus, the sky’s brightest planet, and Jupiter, the sky’s second-brightest planet.
While you’re at it, get an eyeful of the dark side of the moon, which is aglow in earthshine or sunlight twice-reflected from Earth to the moon, and then the moon back to Earth.
Although the moon will drop out of the morning sky in a day or two, you can rely on Venus to guide your eye to the planet Saturn for many mornings to come. These two worlds will appear very, very close together over the next several mornings.
Take advantage of this opportunity to watch all of these worlds through binoculars or a low-powered telescope.
Bottom line: On the morning of January 7, 2016, let the moon be your guide to Venus and Saturn in the eastern sky. Then watch for the great conjunction of Venus and Saturn over the next several days

Your Three Dragon MahJong Reading for January 6th
Your Three Dragon MahJong Reading for Today
In Chinese Culture the Dragon is generally considered a sign of great luck and power. However the Red, Green and White Dragons in Mahjong represent three distinct influences that can affect your life. The Dragon Reading creates a relationship between sets of tiles to each Dragon to explore how the Three Dragons will influence you now and in the near future.
The White Dragon is indeed a wily fellow. His domain is the great unknown, and the tile set under him suggests an area or areas that could affect your life in unexpected ways.
Bamboo 6
Symbol: Water
The Water tile denotes a need for communication. A trip may be necessary to communicate properly. You may be called upon to present proof of ownership or that an event actually took place.
South Wind
Symbol: Fire
The South Wind tile is considered to be a very good sign in a reading. It almost ensures a satisfactory end to any problem.
Bamboo 3
Symbol: Toad
The Toad tile indicates some troubling moments along your life’s path, but these aches will heal. It also suggests your ambition may be greater than your reach.

Your Ancient Symbol Card for January 6th is The Storm
Your Ancient Symbol Card for Today
The Storm
The Storm represents the trouble and discord that creep into our lives from time to time. The storm is represented by a tornado whirling its way across a fertile plain. Tornados are powerful but relatively small, short lived storms, which means that while the turmoil they indicate may be strong it will at least pass quickly. Like the tornado, The Storm is a force outside yourself and beyond your control. During a stormy period you may lose ground. However, knowing one is upon you can certainly help you keep your losses to a minimum, or even turn what might be a disaster into a windfall.
As a daily card, The Storm denotes a time when you should be prepared to face some large challenges in your life. You may find yourself losing more than you gain for awhile. The key to weathering the storm is preparation. You know its coming, so be ready for it and there is a possibility that you can transform a tumultuous event into something good.
Your Daily Witches Rune for Jan. 6th is The Blank Rune
Witches Rune for the Day
The Blank Rune
Meaning: This is a rune of difficulty and negative influences will rule your life for a time, but as all difficulties are a learning experience it will lead to improved personal perspective and progress on your life’s path. Always consult the surrounding runes with this stone. If it lies with a positive stone, it indicates that the pain of this experience will lead to a beneficial change in circumstances
Your Crowley Thoth Tarot Card for January 6th is The Devil
Your Crowley Thoth Tarot Card for Today
The Devil
The Devil is the more perplexing cards one can draw in a reading. He represents all that most find undesirable, distasteful. He embodies the seven deadly sins (Lust, Gluttony, Avarice, Sloth, Wrath, Envy, Pride). The Devil is evil personified. However, it is unlikely his presence in your cards means you are most suited to be a child of Satan. Think of the saying “Keep your friends close and your enemies closer.” The more plausible explanation is that you are actually quite moral, and feel a deep duty to oppose the dark forces The Devil embodies. This in no way implies you should establish your own inquisition, but simply that you are acutely aware of the destructive influences in our world and have the strength to resist them.
Daily I Ching Hexagram for January 6 is 40:Deliverance
Hexagram of the Day
40: Deliverance
August 28th, 2015
After a thunderstorm, or any period of extreme tension, a period of new clarity and fresh opportunity follows. The storm has the effect of clearing the air and suddenly reducing atmospheric tension. Deliverance is at hand. In the wake of a storm on land, deliverance appears in the form of new color and life, which bursts forth in all the fields and flowers. In the wake of a storm at sea, deliverance takes the form of land itself.
In the field of human relations, the rain of forgiveness washes the human landscape clean after a period of conflict and enmity. Great clarity of purpose and renewed vigor can follow the healing of old wounds. But care must be taken not to re-open such wounds by moving too quickly. In the same way, it is important to return to normalcy before moving ahead with new plans after periods of stress.
Following the resolution of a difficult situation, your first priority, should be to return to normal conditions as quickly as possible. Breathe a sigh of relief, but don’t relax completely. It would be a mistake to re-awaken the sleeping dogs of the immediate past before the new situation has crystallized. Look ahead. Attend to any residual matters that need resolution, and do so as quickly as possible. Make a clean sweep of the past, move deliberately and the future will bring good fortune.

Your Rune For Wednesday, January 6th is Kenaz
Your Rune For Today
Kenaz
Kenaz foretells the coming of clarity and knowledge. It is time for you to grow by exchanging knowledge with others. Opportunities are upon you.
Additional information about Today’s Rune, Kenaz
kenaz : torch
Phonetic equivalent: k (can also be used as a hard ‘c’)
- DIVINATORY MEANINGS:
- wisdom, insight, solution to a problem, creativity, inspiration, enlightenment
- MAGICAL USES:
- for creative inspiration, aid in study, fertility, dispelling anxiety and fear
- ASSOCIATED MYTHS & DEITIES:
- Mimir, the Dwarfs, Muspellheim
- ANALYSIS:
- In modern usage, the Scottish ‘ken’ means to know or understand, and this is the sense in which the rune should interpreted. Today, light, inspiration and knowledge are often associated, as in ‘gaining enlightenment’ and ‘shedding light on the problem’, and even in the image of a lightbulb going on over someone’s head when they get an idea. To bring light is to make the invisible visible.Unlike the wisdom gained at þurisaz, kenaz only allows us to take bits and pieces of this knowledge away with us as we need it, usually at the discretion of the Gods. This knowledge will generally come in the form of a sudden inspiration, and we will be able to see clearly the answer that was once hidden from us. This form of wisdom is more closely associated with the right half of the brain than the left, since it does not come through conscious effort but rather through passively opening one’s self to it. Thus, a more feminine element is added to our journeyer’s experience.
-
The act of bringing light into the darkness is also a creative one. Again consider the image of the person carrying a torch , representing the masculine elements of fire and air, entering the cave and penetrating the feminine realm of earth and water. This joining of masculine and feminine elements results in the creation of new ideas. In physical terms, this can be correlated to the application of fire to mold and shape matter – the art of the smith.

Your Lucky Tarot Cards for Wednesday, January 6th
Your Lucky Tarot Cards
This reading represents elements that favor you.
The Hierophant
The Hierophant represents the protector of a culture’s heritage and traditions. His purpose is to defend and teach the established ways and beliefs a group embraces. He is inherently conventional and a true believer in the power of the group. He loves the structure of the group and its values. It is the task of The Hierophant to bring new members into the group—to prepare the uninitiated to take their rightful place in his culture. In this sense he is very much like a teacher or a priest. He also acts as the repository of his group’s history. The Hierophant is certainly not one to buck proper authority. However, he is staunch and worthy defender of the tried and true. He represents the positive aspects of conformity.
When The Emperor is among your personal cards, the influence of The Hierophant may be increased. Having The Fool or The Lovers in your personal cards may diminish the influence of The Hierophant.
The Lovers
The Lovers indicates both the most powerful of unions and the most of challenging conflicts humans must face. On one side The Lover’s embodies love and union on a cosmic scale—a love so strong, so inherently good that it actually makes the lovers better, more than they really are. All of the elements are there for the perfect union. The Lovers represent all powerful unions in general, and the elements that create/sustain them. The problem The Lovers face is temptation and the decision to act morally or abandon their ethics to take advantage of other opportunities that would be defined as transgressions.
The Lovers’ influence is increased when The Empress is among your personal cards. Having The Hierophant or The Hermit in your personal cards may diminish the influence of the Lovers.
