Invocation to Prometheus

Long ago, wars tore the land
And the great and powerful laid waste
To all things, and some won,
and some lost, but the true losers
Were those unfortunate humans
Who were beneath the notice of either side.
One Titan took pity on them,
And tricked the gods who would have
Robbed them of even their food,
And taught them to keep the best part
Of their sacrifices for themselves.
And then, to help them further
In the face of the wrath of the powerful,
He stole fire from the sacred forge
And gave it to weak humanity.
And for this he was punished,
As he knew he would be punished,
Chained to a stone and torn by a vulture.
And yet the knowledge of that punishment
Did not deter him from his goal,
For when there is something that must be done,
And it is right to do it,
Then harm to body and mind
Does not stop right action.
For this we hail Prometheus,
Lord of Forethought,
He who sacrifices for the good of all,
He who knows what it is to be right,
And what will be the consequences.

(All stand before the altar and salute the torch, and speak of their own convictions.)

FREEZER BINDING SPELL

FREEZER BINDING SPELL

Piece of paper and a pen Black thread or string Small water tight container
It’s best done just after the Full Moon, or at least while the moon is waning, and needs to
be renewed every month or when the person starts bothering you again.
Write the name of the person you wish to prevent from harming you on a piece of paper.
Gaze at the paper and visualize the face of the person in question; see their face vividly
imprinted on the paper. Then, fold the paper three times. Tie it up with black thread or
string, and put into a small watertight container (baby food jars are ideal). Fill the container
with water, and place in a nook of the freezer where it’s unlikely to be disturbed, saying:
Stay there and freeze as long as I please.

The Breviary of the Asphodel Tradition

Charming Glamory {Chaste Moon}

Charming Glamory

 {Chaste Moon}

Glamory is all about the image you present to the world. In the faery realm, glamory is the source of magick that faeries use to shape shift. Changing their appearance at will, for example from a gorgeous faery queen to a frightening, black cat, faeries can move through worlds undetected, and when discovered, they can charm their way out of a situation.

Create your own glamory and make yourself more faery-like  and charming. At midnight, think about how you project your image into your world. Exactly what persona and appearance are you presenting to those around you? Notice how you act in different situations. As you notice the many qualities about yourself, write them down in your journal.

Now that you are becoming more aware of your glamory, it’s time to become charming. These are five things you can practice to do just that.

  1. Smile when you are with people.
  2. Make eye contact when you meet and talk with people.
  3. Stay present and in the moment.
  4. Relax and enjoy yourself.
  5. Think, act, and be as confident as possible.

Practice these things all the time, and become aware when you do the. Also, notice how people respond to you whenever you do things. The more you practice tailoring your glamory into the cloak you desire, the more you will attract the people and experiences in your life that you really want. Accordingly, you life will improve as you become more and more adept at applying your charming glamor every night and every day.

Problem Banishment Ritual {Chaste Moon}

Problem Banishment Ritual

{Chaste Moon}

Remember, banishments should be used as a last resort when everything has failed to solve the problem. When you banish something from your life, you bind it away from yourself for the rest of your life. There is usually no going back on this decision once you have banished something away from you.

For this spell, you will need a green candle, a red candle, a white candle, a writing pen and a pie of paper.

Light the green candle, and dedicate it to the Goddess by saying:

Goddess may your divine light
Always shine bright in my life.
 

Light the red candle, dedicating it to the God, and the white candle dedicating it to Oneness. Place the green candle on your left, the red candle on your right, and the white candle in front of you, but up about a foot from the imaginary line formed by the green and red candles. The candles form a triangle.

Write what you want to banish on the piece of paper, and place it in the middle of the triangle. Use your athame to point a the piece of paper,and as you do so, say:

{The problem written on the paper}
I banish this problem forever from my life
By the powers of the God and Goddess
So be! So Mote It Be!

Complete the ritual by burning the piece of paper and throwing the ashes in the garbage or down the garbage disposal.

Binding Spell for the Waning Moon

Binding Spell

Do on a waning moon.
On a sheet of paper, write the name of the person who you wish to bind. Also write down some negative behaviors that you would like to change positive. Roll the paper
and wrap with black ribbon, set paper on fire, and place in a fireproof bowl. Chant this until completely burned:
“As this paper chars and burns, all these behaviors soon will turn.”
Dump the ash in the water. Visualize it glow with power of peace. Concentrate on your intent. Take the water and ash to a north tree at your home, and pour water & ash
around the base while chanting three times:
“Sink this into mother earth, give love and understanding birth.”
Visualize how things will be different.
“So mote it be!”

Break Another Witches Spell

Break Another Witches Spell


 
This spell will help to undo a hex or spell that has been put on you by another witch.

You Will Need

A Length Of Silver Cord Or String

Your Boline (Magickal Knife Used For Cutting) Or A Pair Of Scissors

The Spell

Cut the cord in the centre, chant the following, and see the spell breaking:

AN ALL PURPOSE SPELL TO EFFECT ANOTHER

AN ALL PURPOSE SPELL TO EFFECT ANOTHER

This simple spell can be used for any purpose – whether it be to empower a person,
to heal them, to bind them etc. Simply choose the appropriate color candle and scribe
the person’s name and your intent upon it. Anoint it with an appropriate oil.
Light the candle and while watching it burn, repeat the following chant,
focusing upon your intent as you do so.
Powers that be, Powers of 3, Let X be all I see.

SOULMATE DREAM SPELL

SOULMATE DREAM SPELL


What you need: 1 red candle, an altar with a pentagram upon it
Turn out the lights and place the candle at the middle of the pentagram, sit cross legged
in front of the altar, then say:
“Let me dream a bright dream with my soulmate send him/her to me now.
I wish to see him/her this night. So mote it be!”
The more times you say it the more power your spell gains. Another spell you can do is go
outside when it is a full moon out look at the moon and braid your hair as you do, then go
to sleep and dream of them.

TO GAIN A PROPHETIC DREAM OF ONE’S FUTURE LOVE

TO GAIN A PROPHETIC DREAM OF ONE’S FUTURE LOVE


Recite the following magical incantation as you pluck a sprig of the mystical ash tree:
“Ashen Tree, Ashen Tree, I pluck thee.
This night my true love for to see”
Place the sprig under your pillow when the moon is full and your future
lover or spouse will appear before you in a dream.

SPELL TO AID SLEEP

SPELL TO AID SLEEP


Light a blue candle (Carve a rune in the candle that stands for sleep).
Light a stick of incense (I use Cedar/Sage–but you use whatever feels right).
Soft/Instrumental/Relaxing Sounds Say:
By this candle I do sleep; Hidden from the day, in the night so deep.
O Lady Moon, guide my dreams, Cover me with your beautiful beams.
As the candle flame dies; Please close my eyes.
Allow me to wake in the warmth of your lover The Sun. Make my insomnia come undone.
(Repeat while the candle is burning) Use A Tea-Light candle (so the house doesn’t burn down)

Angel-of-Dreams Assistance Spell

Are you, or is someone you care about, planning to fly soon? Take advantage of today’s energy to make a safe-travel spell. Wednesday is ruled by Mercury, the planet and god of travel. Cut out a bookmark-sized piece of heavy paper, and write on it:

Mercury of the silver wings,
messenger of divine words,
open the sky, part the clouds,
and keep me safe from all fell things.

Then cover the words with a mini-collage using pictures of birds, clouds, wings, feathers, airplanes, chariots, and so on. Use this as the bookmark in your in-flight reading material.

Ring Divination {Chaste Moon Spell}

Ring Divination

{Chaste Moon Spell}

This divination method is a variation of dactylomancy, which is an ancient form of divination that used rings. One method places gold or silver rings on the fingernails in ways that reflect the conjunctions of the planets. Another method involves using a wedding ring by either hanging it on a string like a pendulum or casting it in a bowl of water where the bottom has been mapped out so that where the ring lands determines its meaning in term of the divination.

You will need a ring that you wear around your finger for the spell. As you are getting ready to go to sleep, determine the aspect of your life that you want to address in the moon ring divination. It can either be a specific question or an area where you need insights as to what’s happening.

Drifting to sleep, twist the ring clockwise on your finger nine times while saying:

Ring around the moon

Circling stars through the sky

I’ll be dreaming soon

Asking this question why (ask your question).

Imagine your ring twirling around a giant image of the moon floating high in the sky. As the ring revolves around and around, you imagine stars within the ring sparkling like the off and on twinkle of lights that are continually changing color and intensity. Peer deep within the milky white orb of the moon, and begin your journey toward illuminating this aspect of your life. Write down all the impressions you receive.

Your Lunar LoveScopes for the Weekend of March 23 -25

 

Weekend Love: Lunar Love

by Jeff Jawer

All Fired Up

March 23 – 25

Friday is fired up by the frisky Aries Moon, stimulating interest in new places and faces. Taking risks by being more direct about feelings may rub some folks the wrong way, but it’s admirable to adopt such an honest approach to relationships. Eliminating games and guesswork about what you want clears away misconceptions and can take a partnership in a fresh direction or open the door to someone new.

Restlessness continues on Saturday as the impatience of the Aries Moon is kicked up by a solar conjunction to rebellious Uranus. A strong drive for independence and innovation is best met by giving everyone plenty of space. Any attempt to control people is likely to be met by resistance, so keeping things loose is a good way to keep the peace. Sudden shifts of mood are also possible, which can rattle a relationship or inspire an instant attraction to someone unusual.

Sunday should be calmer and quieter as the earthy Taurus Moon slows the pace and engages the senses. A big breakfast can be a yummy way to start the day, especially if you’re not in a hurry to go anywhere. Lounging around the house or relaxing in a beautiful natural setting opens hearts to life’s simple pleasures.

New Moon Report for March 23 – Mercury in Pisces

New Moon Report for March 23

by Jeff Jawer

 

Mercury in Pisces

Friday, March 23, 6:23 am PDT, 9:23 am EDT

Retrograde Mercury backs into Pisces like a drunk stumbling back into a bar or a sinner returning to the faith — regression and redemption are both possible. Minds often meander with the messenger planet in this fluid sign, yet Mercury’s reversal allows us to pick up important strands of information that may have slipped through our fingers during its recent transit. Psychic awareness grows and tender conversations heal wounded relationships as we recognize the connecting power of compassion.

New Moon Report for March 22nd – New Moon in Aries

New Moon Report for March 22

by Jeff Jawer

New Moon in Aries

Thursday, March 22, 7:38 am PDT, 10:38 am EDT

The Aries New Moon is a rocket launcher, a blast-off moment and a fresh start for the new astrological year. This pioneering sign propels us into unknown territory, bravely (or blindly) jumping into the future. Innovative Uranus and brainy Mercury join this lunation to spark unconventional perceptions and fire up original ideas. We may get a little ahead of ourselves and impatiently force issues that aren’t quite ready for prime time. Concepts flying by at the speed of light must be slowed down to give them a chance to be examined.

The Aries New Moon is the beginning of both the Moon’s monthly cycle and the Sun’s annual cycle. The passion of this Fire sign spurs us to blaze new trails and experiment with original projects and unfamiliar forms of behavior. Starting things now might be easy, but sticking to them could be more difficult. The urge for personal freedom inspires independent action that can be bold and exciting, yet impulsive acts may rub some people the wrong way. Considering the feelings of others is essential to maintaining harmony when exploring new territory.

Daily Cosmic Calendar for March 22nd

You can breathe a first sigh of relief at 2:58AM PDT when yesterday’s long void lunar cycle in Pisces ends and the Moon enters fiery Aries. However, the New Moon – energizing 3 degrees of Aries – doesn’t occur until 7:38AM PDT. Therefore, between 2:58AM PDT and 7:38AM PDT, the dark-of-the-moon vibes are at white-hot intensity and this implies the need to finish odd jobs and old projects with skills and zeal. It is during the extreme dark-of-the-moon, closing-down energy-field that the Moon unites with Mercury retrograde in Aries (4:51AM PDT) – charging your mind and thought process with remembrances of times past. A wave of nostalgia can wash over you. Once the New Moon clocks in at 7:38AM PDT, it is incumbent upon you to be more courageous as a leader and pioneer who strikes while the iron is hot. Nevertheless, uncertainty and surprises are rife since Mars in Virgo opposes Chiron in Pisces (8:22AM PDT), the Moon unites with shock-inducer Uranus in Aries (11:37AM PDT), Mercury parallels productivity-enhancer Ceres (3:07PM PDT), and the Sun makes a potent, electrifying parallel to Uranus (6:25PM PDT). While the Mars-Chiron polarity can signify troubles afflicting romantic partners and business associates, the Moon and Sun aligning with Uranus can be tweaked to give you amazing insights about the shape of things to come. Expecting the unexpected should be your motto. Helping you smooth over differences with dear ones, friends and colleagues is an inspirational, 72-degree rapport from Venus to Chiron (11:37PM PDT). Positive ties between Venus and Chiron are very often reinforcement links that can bring soul-mates into greater harmony and happiness.
