Let’s Talk Witch – Chanting and Magick c 2014

Chanting and Magick

“In the beginning was the Word,” the Bible says. According to Christian tradition, the voice of God is the instrument of creation, the source of all that exists on earth and in the cosmos. The Hopi believe the universe was created by Spider Woman, who sang the sun, moon, earth, and stars into being, then animated earth’s creatures with her voice. According to Sufi mythology, God fashioned the first human from clay, then asked the angels to sing the person’s soul into a state of ecstasy so that it would enter and enliven the clay.

These creation stories express the power of the voice and the magick inherent in sound. Witches and other magicians often chant, sing, and intone special words or phrases to create the circumstances they desire. Most spells and rituals involve affirmations, incantations, prayers, or invoking spiritual beings for assistance. Chanting can also dispel unwanted energies and break down obstacles that might otherwise impede a spell’s success.

Some shamans even use chanting and singing to reconnect the soul with the physical body after a trauma has caused a separation. Singing to the missing parts of the soul/self is believed to create a pathway or bridge so the wandering parts can find their way back home.

As musician Steven Halpern puts it, sound is the “carrier wave of consciousness,” capable of transmitting information from one life form to another. Sound can even carry intentions between the visible and nonvisible realms.

Words of Power

Spiritual and occult literature abounds with references to the power of the human voice. For millennia people have been reciting magickal words as a way of invoking supernatural forces and petitioning them for assistance. This is usually done by calling out the deities’ names. Speaking someone’s name is said to be an act of power, giving the namer influence over the named (which is why in some belief systems, individuals have “public” names and “private” names that are kept secret). In the Genesis story, Adam was allowed to name the animals on earth and thus was given dominion over them.

Witches and magicians recognize the power inherent in some words, incorporating them into spells and rituals. Abracadabra, for instance, is universally associated with magick, by the public as well as occult practitioners. But the word isn’t just part of the stage illusionist’s repertoire. Derived from the Aramaic Avarah K’Davarah, which translates “I will create as I speak,” it expresses a magician’s intention to manifest a result. As long ago as the second century the word was written as an inverted pyramid and used in amulets to protect the wearer from illness.

One of the most powerful and sacred statements is also one of the shortest: I am. This magickal combination connects you with your divine essence for creative purposes. You can intone the words to balance your vital energy, center yourself, and generate power, much as you might chant the word Om. Or you can consciously choose to form a magickal sentence that begins with “I am” in order to manifest a desired condition.

Many witches end spells with the words “So mote it be.” This phrase (like “so be it”) seals a spell and instructs the universe to carry out the witch’s will. If a witch wants to banish an entity or energy, he might order it to leave by saying, “Be gone.” The expression “Blessed Be” is a favorite greeting among witches and a magickal exchange of positive energy.

Resonance and Vibration

Because the universe — and everything in it — is composed of vibrations, all sounds produce effects. Sound healers have demonstrated that the body’s chakras can be balanced by playing certain notes on the musical scale. Don Campbell, musician and author of The Mozart Effect, believes he healed himself of degenerative bone disease by “making thunder” — singing, dancing, and vocalizing a loud, long, extended tone that expressed his deepest fears, tension, and joy.

Witches tap the power of resonance to raise energy, cleanse sacred space, focus the mind, and empower spells. Whether you use your own voice or a drum, gong, bell, tingsha, singing bowl, or other instrument, sound can increase the effectiveness of your magick and add beauty to your rituals.

Let’s Talk Witch – Your Power c 2015

Your Power

Now let’s talk about some techniques and exercises to help you begin raising and channeling your Wicca power.

First of all, anyone can cast a powerful magical spell. If you think you’re not powerful enough, or not magical enough, or if you’re still a little skeptical about Wicca, don’t worry.

You will still be able to perform very effective magic, if you can follow some simple instructions.

There is a very important principle that underlies all magic spells you will perform.

Some people call it The Secret. Others know it as the Law of Attraction. But the point is, you will attract what you think about and focus on. That is how powerful your mind is.

Magic, using tools and words and spells, just enhances this natural ability that your mind has to attract.

Magic lets you powerfully attract what you want, and it works because of the Law of Attraction.

The key here is to make sure that everything you do is in line with your goals. All your thoughts, all your actions, and everything you do should be in agreement with what you are trying to attract.

For example: if you are trying a spell to lose weight, then looking in the mirror and saying “look how fat I am, I’m never going to lose this weight!” is going against your purpose.

You must think positive, and imagine the reality you wish to achieve with your spell.

And if you binge on brownies, bon-bons, and junk food, you are also going against your purpose.

And your spell is not going to work.

Let me repeat this again because it’s important.

Your spells will not work unless you put your entire being into achieving your goal.

Magic without the proper intention is just a bunch of rhyming words.

When you do magic, you want it to work for you.

So do yourself a favor, and make sure that you avoid anything that contradicts or goes against the purpose of your spell.

Making negative statements will cancel out any positive energy created by your spell. This means that the spell won’t work.

When you cast a spell, you need to be confident that it will succeed. In fact, the more confident you are, the more successful your spell is likely to be.

Try to frame your thoughts and statements positively: “I will lose the weight.” “I can and I will achieve my goals.” “I am eating healthy foods to achieve my goals.”
When you make positive statements like this, you create positive energy that reinforces your spell and makes it stronger.

So make sure you are creating positive energy for your spell, both before, during, and after your spell is cast.

Spell For Monday – Elemental Road Opener Spell: Wiccan Prayer to Unlock Paths

(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY)

Elemental Road Opener Spell: Wiccan Prayer to Unlock Paths

Road opener rituals are great for finding the way out of a stagnant situation and moving forward in life. If you are feeling stuck or having a hard time with a specific problem 🔗, this simple spell might help you find the right course of action.

This is a road opening ritual inspired by Mexican bruja Yeel Maló, who works with the ray of Archangel Gabriel, the celestial messenger. The spell recipe on this page has been modified to invoke the Universal Elements instead.

You can dedicate this prayer to a different patron saint or deity. If you need inspiration for your devotional practice, visit today’s ruling deities or learn about the God and Goddess of Wicca.

How this Spell Works

We will work with each of the 4 Elementals for a Wiccan ritual.
‣ A bowl of water will symbolize the Water Element 💧
‣ A crystal or gemstone for the Earth💎
‣ An incense stick for the Air ☁️
‣ And a candle for Fire 🔥

What incense should I use? Pick an aroma that matches your intention. You can browse the Green Witch course to learn about the properties of different herbs. Cinnamon is a great option because of its warm, comforting smell that sanctifies the ritual area.

If you don’t have a crystal or gemstone for this spell, use a bowl filled with kitchen salt instead.

Road Opener Wiccan Candle Ritual

Recipe by Francisco Huanaco

An easy road opener spell with a candle and a Wiccan prayer. Invoke the 4 elementals to clear and unlock solutions to your problems.

What you’ll need

Bowl of water (regular drinking water)

1 incense stick

1 crystal or gemstone (pick one according to the day)

1 white candle

How to do a road opener spell

Arrange your items on the altar. Each element will face one of the four directions: Water faces West. Air faces East. Earth faces North. Fire faces South.

Light the incense. The Air element is entering your ritual.

Rub your hands for a few seconds until you can feel a warm energy, visualize a ball of energy and hold your crystal, you are invoking the Earth element.

Light the candle to call upon the presence of the Fire element.

Gently dip a finger in the water to feel the company of the Water element. Water represents a state of flow, a mirror that can open the door to a new reality. This transforming energy will clear all blockages.

Chant the following road opener prayer:

Visualize an empty road. Meditate for a few minutes as you see yourself moving forward.

Let the candle burn completely and always practice candle safety. If you need to leave the room, put out the candle and continue burning it later.

Once the candle is burned, toss all remains away while saying Thank you. Keep the crystal close to you. If you need to invoke the power of this spell, rub your hands and hold it in your hands again.

July 7, 2025 Current Southern Hemisphere/Tomorrow’s Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase

Source: nineplanets.org

The current moon phase for July 7th, 2025 is the Waxing Gibbous phase.

On this day, the moon is 12.46 days old and 90.7% illuminated with a tilt of 126.598°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 400,980.86 km and the moon sign is Sagittarius.

The Moon phase for July 7th, 2025 is a Waxing Gibbous phase. This is the phase where the moon is more than 50% illuminated but has not yet reached 100% illumination (which would be a Full Moon).

In the Northern Hemisphere, the right side will be illuminated, and in the Southern hemisphere it’ll be the left side that is illuminated.

The Waxing Gibbous phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. During this Waxing Gibbous phase the moon will rise in the east in the mid- to late-afternoon and will be high in the eastern sky at sunset.

Assuming it’s a clear night, the Waxing Gibbous moon will then be visible through most of the night before setting just before sunrise.

Fun fact: the word Gibbous was first used in the 14th century and comes from the latin word gibbosus which means humpbacked.

They also seem to put a great price on sincerity and on loyalty and this is what they require of others too.

Negative Traits: One thing Cancer needs to learn is to stop dreaming with eyes open and take activity because they are the only ones who can accomplish their goals and objectives.

July 1 Zodiac people are most attached to the other two water signs: Scorpio and Pisces as they tend to share the same vision of life. In love, Cancer is in a constant search for someone capable of unconditional love and understanding and the best to offer them this is the native in Virgo. The least compatible with people born on July 1 are those born under Aquarius. As for the rest of compatibilities between the other star signs and Cancer, you know what they say, stars predispose but people dispose.

Lucky color: Silver is the color that is considered lucky for those Cancer natives with July 1.

Who to Invite: If you don’t think a normal adult would want to extend invites to an eclectic group of slightly weird family members, Cancer might surprise you.

Where to Go: Home. Your house, or better yet — theirs. A party where all the guests yell “Surprise!“ would produce tears of total joy, even if it wasn’t unexpected.

The July 1st zodiac meanings also suggest that you may be a little idealist or naive when it comes to love. Sadly, reality sets you up for disappointment and truth. Normally, you are an independent creature who enjoys the idea of freedom.

While the person born under the zodiac sign of Cancer wants affection and companionship, you can find it difficult to express your emotions or to feel not even to your soul mate. It is a shield, but in a lasting relationship, couples should not keep secrets from each other. Trust is an essential part of the relationship.

It is hard because you are intuitive and can make stressful decisions with confidence and quickly. You have a sharp mind for business deals. Both can provide job gratification, and whichever profession you choose, you may invest a big part of your life to it.

Cancer birthday people born today need stability, and you are always prepared for life’s unexpected financial burdens. Although you can afford it, you decide if you need it before you buy it.

The July 1 birthday personality traits also show that your biggest health concern is your tendency to overindulge or to starve yourself. This may be an indication of your mood. As your appetite varies, you are prone to infections and fatigue. You could exercise to increase both energy and appetite.

As you eat more and eat more of the right foods and get the right amount of exercise, you will be fit and toned. A sign of a healthy body is a healthy spirit. When you are weighed down with burdens, you tend to keep them hidden and worry by yourself. Those born on this day are likely not to be themselves in these times.

The Cancer, according to the July 1 horoscope analysis, are hard to predict as you can have a short fuse. Because you are spontaneous, you can make a mountain out of a molehill.

The current moon phase for July 1st, 2025 is the Waxing Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 6.27 days old and 38.07% illuminated with a tilt of 155.25°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 396,929.71 km and the moon sign is Virgo.

The Moon phase for July 1st, 2025 is a Waxing Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon started to become visible again after the New Moon.

In this part of the moon cycle, the Moon is moving away from the Sun and is becoming more and more illuminated by sunlight. In this phase, the moon will go from 0.1% to 49.9% illuminated before reaching the First Quarter phase.

In the Waxing Crescent phase the moon rises before noon in the east, transits the meridian before sunset, before setting in the west before midnight.

The Waxing Crescent phase, like all moon phases, will last for just over 7 days. The actual length will vary because of the elliptical shaped orbit of the moon. The moon is close to the Sun in the sky and the right edge will become brighter as it approaches 50% illumination and the First Quarter phase

Fun fact: although only a small part of the Moon is illuminated in the Waxing Crescent phase, you can still sometimes see the rest of moon as faintly visible. This is known as “earthshine” or Da Vinci glow and is a result of sunlight being reflected off the Earth and back to the Moon.

July 2025 Moon Details

The Full Moon for this month will occur in the second week on Thursday, July 10th. The New Moon will happen later in July on Thursday, July 24th.

The Full Thunder Moon of July

July’s full moon is called the Full Thunder Moon, after the frequent thunderstorms that roll in during early summer. Thunderstorms are more likely to form in humid environments during summer because of the moist, hot air rising from the ground to the higher, colder parts of our atmosphere. The Full Thunder Moon is, therefore, a warning sign for a surprisingly dangerous time of the year.

Did you know that you are more likely to get hit by lightning twice in your lifetime than win the Powerball lottery, and that summer is usually when most lightning fatalities happen? As the Full Thunder Moon rises to prominence during the warm summer months, people are more likely to be taking part in outdoor activities, which increases their risk of being hit by the frequent thunder and lightning strikes that happen during this period. Everyone knows to avoid trees and bodies of water during thunderstorms, but that basic precaution alone is not enough.

According to experts, you should head inside a safe building immediately when you hear thunder, no matter how safe you think you are. Lightning can strike from up to 10 miles away, and nothing can protect you when you’re outdoors. Wearing rubber soles or crouching down low will not stop lightning from hurting you. Lying down on the ground is an even worse idea, as it’ll make you even more vulnerable to currents traveling through the ground.

If you do get caught outdoors with no way to make it into a building safely, sheltering in a completely closed, all-metal car is an option as long as you don’t touch anything metal. You should also avoid open areas such as fields. Just keep moving as fast as you can until you reach shelter. If you happen to be in a group, spread out so that if one of you gets struck, the others can provide emergency CPR and other help. Remember that it’s completely safe to touch a person after they’ve been struck. Lightning-related deaths are most often caused by the heart stopping due to the sudden surge of electricity, and so it is very important to administer CPR to a lightning strike victim immediately.

Ultimately, the best way to avoid being caught outdoors in a thunderstorm is to take a little of your time each day to monitor the weather situation, and have backup plans for shelter if you’re heading outdoors. That said, being indoor doesn’t necessarily guarantee that you’re safe either. Make sure to stay far away from any plumbing, metal objects, electronic devices and equipment, or anything that might conducts electricity. Avoid windows or doors at all costs. Not even concrete walls and floors are safe, since they contain metal rods that conduct electricity, so never allow yourself to lean against concrete walls or come into contact with concrete floors. The risk of a strike remains for 30 minutes after the last flash of lightning or peal of thunder.

The Full Thunder Moon is a great time for you to brush up on your lightning safety knowledge and educate other people as well. Feel free to head to the wild outdoors to observe deers whose velvety antlers are growing out during this period – which is why July’s full moon is also known as the Full Buck Moon – but also make sure to take the necessary safety precautions.

Attention:
Surgical operations are generally recommended during the Waning Moon, because human body is healing better after surgery.

However, try to avoid surgeries of the organs under the influence of the zodiac sign the Moon is in on the day of the surgery. These organs are more sensitive when the Moon is passing the sign they are affiliated with and their surgery is not recommended.

June 29, 2025 Current Southern Hemisphere/Tomorrow’s Northern Hemisphere Moon Phase

The current moon phase for June 29th, 2025 is the Waxing Crescent phase.

On this day, the moon is 4.22 days old and 19.2% illuminated with a tilt of 151.777°. The approximate distance from Earth to the moon is 386,681.08 km and the moon sign is Leo.

The Moon phase for June 29th, 2025 is a Waxing Crescent phase. This is the phase where the moon started to become visible again after the New Moon.

In the Waxing Crescent phase the moon rises before noon in the east, transits the meridian before sunset, before setting in the west before midnight.

Fun fact: although only a small part of the Moon is illuminated in the Waxing Crescent phase, you can still sometimes see the rest of moon as faintly visible. This is known as “earthshine” or Da Vinci glow and is a result of sunlight being reflected off the Earth and back to the Moon.

Some of the Witchcraft/Magickal Correspondence for Friday

Planet: Venus
Colors: Pink and white

Date night! As tonight is Valentine’s Day for those who celebrate or care, which I don’t because every day is the Thunderdome of love up in this house, Venus is here to help bring everyone closer…rawr. But not just romantically, friendship is for Friday too. Anything to draw more love to you is for Friday, whether it’s self-love, sexual love or even mending a rift. Fridays are my best bath days too. Not just for purification, but have you ever done a glamour? Mirror mirror on the wall. I have a friend who found out I was a witch and in the conversation, I told her about a glamour because she had a date. She looked right at me and said “You bitch. I knew there were nights you just looked too good. That’s not fair” We used to go out back when we were both single. The feminine power of Venus is also good for crafting, harvesting herbs, making potions, and just flat getting your drink on. Now we all know why I go live on Fridays. Secret is out.

Attention: Surgical operations are generally recommended during the Waning Moon, because human body is healing better after surgery.

However, try to avoid surgeries of the organs under the influence of the zodiac sign the Moon is in on the day of the surgery. These organs are more sensitive when the Moon is passing the sign they are affiliated with and their surgery is not recommended.
