Sun Phases – Sunrise
Sun Phases – Sunrise
Sunrise lends its energies to beginnings, change, and cleansing. This phase is beneficial to magickal workings that involve new endeavors in employment, love or direction in life. Rejuvenation matters such as renewing hope and trust, good health, or even mending a broken heart also benefit from this energy.
To seal spells performed at sunrise, use this chant or one of your own choosing:
Oh, Youngest Babe, so newly born,
Help me on this bright new morn.
Aid this spell with Your fresh power.
And strengthen it with every hour.

INGWUZ
Fertility, New Beginning, The God-Hero
It is the completion of the initiation that Inguz needs. It may indicate a time of joyful liberation, a new life, a new way. As a rune of great power it means that you have the strength to reach you completion, the solution from which there is a new beginning. The completion, the finish/finalization is most important. This Rune indicates that you have to fertilize the soil for your own liberation. Everything is changing, and we cannot live constantly in the midst of obstacles.

Hexagram Fifty-Seven/57
Name: Sun.
Keyphrase: The gentle.
Formed By The Trigrams: Wind over Wind.
General: Although rapid change may be effected by force, enduring change is best effected by gentle persistence.
Love: Patient, thoughtful, and thorough action is the best way to develop trust in your relationship.
Business: Gentle persuasion is by far the best way to further your business plans.
Personal: gentle persistence is the key to successfully achieving your plans.
Overview: Sun is all about the need to be persistent and gentle in your actions. It does not mean that your plans will be unsuccessful because you are proceeding gently rather than forcefully. Unceasing gentleness, not aggressiveness is the key to progress and success. Persuasion and the birth of trust will be far more enduring than threats and coercion. It is a time to allow your thoughts and ideas to permeate the minds of those you are dealing with at their own speed. Be gently persistent in your approach and you will be successful. Adapt to each situation as required. Don’t mistake gentleness for docility and don’t allow gentleness to become weakness.

Welcome to WOTC! A Thought for Today
Soul Contract
The idea bred false conclusions
And a fateful contract
Signed in blood
Ancient text with ancient rite
Demon summoning
Lonely crossroads
It sounded easy
No payment due
Saved until a future day
Bargaining with your soul
What’s the value
None can say
They rather trade it away
Earthly pleasures
They’re easy to see
Wealth, fame, power
Living life so lavishly
Yet time
Time’s a mortal enemy
Try not to think
That eternal damnation
A constant cycle of cremation
But only after pain
And so much suffering
Distract yourself
Try not to see
Deal with it eventually
You want it now
Everything
Eternal youth and diamond rings
Pleasures only flesh can bring
Forgotten was the ancient spell
Your private highway
Your road to hell
Tied now to the hourglass
Amazing run will travel fast
The pact fulfilled
The payment due
Now he comes
Comes for you
Famous Pacts with Demons
Robert Johnson – American Blues Musician – His shadowy life and early death at age 27 gave rise to the legend that he traded his soul to the devil for fame and fortune
Johann Faust – Fifteenth century alchemist, astrologer, and magician whose life became the focal character in the popular tale of Dr. Faust who entered into a pact with Mephistopheles, exchanging his soul for 24 years of service.
Urbain Grandier – A French Catholic priest who was burned at the stake for witchcraft in 1634. One of the documents used in his trial was a pact between the devil and Grandier, written in Latin and covered in strange markings. It was known as the Pactum foederis Urbani Grandieri.

One Person’s View Point About the Sun Phases Part 1 of 6
Sun Phases
The Sun emits an uncomplicated, direct masculine energy that is warm and golden-feeling. Unlike the Moon, He moves through several different phases every day availing the practitioner of unlimited opportunities for immediate spellwork. His wide range of properties can boost almost any magickal effort normally aided by the Moon.
My View Point of How to Use Sun Phases for Spells
While almost every witch follows Moon phases for doing spells, rituals, and other magickal works. I also use the Sun phases, especially because my patron God is Ra.
Every day there is a waxing, full, waning and new phases for the Sun besides the seasonal changes. From sunrise to noon is the waxing phases, the full phase is from 11:55 AM to 12:05 PM, the waning follows until sunset is the new phase.
For the seasons spring is the waning, summer the full phase, fall is the waxing phase and winter the new phase.
This idea and the phases may seem a bit strange to people but when the Moon is in the wrong phases for something I cannot wait to do I use the daily and if possible the Sun phases. This gives me more options of what I need to do.
Spell For Tomorrow – An Evaluation/Promotion Tarot Spell
(YOU CAN COPY AND PASTE ANY SPELLS POSTED TO A DOCUMENT TO PRINT AND/OR SAVE ON YOUR COMPUTER FOR PERSONAL USE ONLY. You can find the origin of the spell by clicking on the hyperlink.)
Got an evaluation coming up at work? There is nothing worse than having to go over a review form. You know you deserve a good raise, but how much will your manager or the company be willing to dole out? Or are you trying for a promotion? Sounds like it’s time to hedge your bets, so to speak. Try your hand at this tarot spell.
Gather the following:
• A carnelian tumbled stone for success and to boost your career or a quartz crystal point for extra power
• 1 yellow or gold candle (white will do in a pinch-it’s an all-purpose color)
• Three tarot cards: the Ace of Wands, the Sun, and the Chariot
• An item in sympathy with the spell that you are casting
You can also add the health, wealth, and success philter to this spell if you wish. Just anoint the spell candle with the solar-powered oil you have created.
What exactly is an item of sympathy? It is any item that is sympathetic to what you are working for. Since this is a job-related spell, an item in sympathy could be your recent paycheck stub, ID badge, or your business card. So, with that thought in mind, adding this sympathetic item to your other correspondences only helps to unify the magick. It does this by uniting the energies and giving you something very specific to focus on.
Arrange your items in front of the candle. If you wish, anoint the spell candle with the philter. Now, light the spell candle and focus on the cards and your item of sympathy, pathy, and then repeat the spell below three times. Check out the last line of the spell and adjust this as necessary.
Just like the golden child who rides under the sun
I call for recognition of a job well done
This spell candle illuminates my way
Bring success and wealth to all my days
Goddess, bless my ambitions, they are fair and true
While this higher career goal/promotion I do now pursue.
Close the spell by saying:
For the good of all, with harm to none
By the sun and stars, this spell is done.
Let the candle burn until it goes out on its own. Keep the carnelian in your pocket or purse, and the cards and your item of sympathy together and on your person for one week, until the following Sunday.

Welcome to WOTC! A Thought for Today
To me my personal soul contract was found by doing shadow work. I strongly suggest if you are going to do shadow work that you do it with someone you trust 100% as looking at your shadows can bring up some pretty scary things from this and past lifetimes.

The Self
Remain modest – that is the right of the oracle. Be in the world, but not from the world. Stay receptive to impulses, that come out of the divine in the inner and outer sphere. Seek to live the usual life in an unusual manner.
If you take the ‘itself’ rune and cut through it in the middle, you are going to receive the rune of joy and its reflection. So there is a fine warning not to be careless. The acrobatically dancing energy of the balance is asked here to bring its higher itself. Nothing in the excess – that was the second request that was to be read at the entrance to the delphish temple. The first advice read: Recognize you yourself!

Beith/Beth
Beith, or Beth, corresponds to the letter B in the alphabet, and is associated with the Birch tree. When this symbol is used, it is representative of new beginnings, change, release, and rebirth. In some traditions, it also has connections with purification.
Birch trees are hardy. They’ll grow just about anywhere, including on bare soil. Because they tend to grow in clusters, what may be just one or two seedlings now can be practically an entire forest in a few decades. In addition to being a sturdy sort of tree, the Birch is useful. In days gone by, it was used for infants’ cradles, and is still harvested today to make cabinets and furniture.
From a magical perspective, there are a number of uses for Birch. The branches are traditionally incorporated into the construction of a besom, and are used for the bristles. Use the white outer bark in ritual in place of paper or parchment–just be sure you only harvest the bark from a fallen Birch tree, not a living one. Ancient herbalists discovered that various parts of this tree can be used for medicinal purposes. Bark was once brewed into a tea to fight fevers, and the leaves were used alternately as a laxative and a diuretic, depending on how they were prepared.
Beith Correspondences
Mundane Aspects: When this symbol appears, it means it’s time to get rid of all those negative influences you’ve been carrying around with you. Figure out what things are bad in your life, which relationships are toxic, and find a way to leave them behind. Instead of being dragged down by the negative, focus on the positive things you have in your life, the blessings and abundance. Use these things as a focus, rather than the harmful or damaging ones.
Magical Aspects: Consider the property of renewal and rebirth, as demonstrated by the Birch. Use this as a tool for spiritual and emotional regrowth, and developing your own ability to regenerate where there has been emptiness or devastation.

Hexagram Sixty – Two/62
Hsiao Kuo / Lying Low
Thunder high on the Mountain, active passivity:
The Superior Person is unsurpassed in his ability to remain small.
In a time for humility, he is supremely modest.
In a time of mourning, he uplifts with somber reverence.
In a time of want, he is resourcefully frugal.
When a bird flies too high, its song is lost.
Rather than push upward now, it is best to remain below.
This will bring surprising good fortune, if you keep to your course.
SITUATION ANALYSIS:
There is no profit to striving here.
To be content with oneself is the greatest success imaginable.
The enlightened person has nothing to prove to himself or others, and thus may always operate from a position of sincerity, with no pretense or posturing.
His humility is guileless simplicity.
His mourning is selfless compassion.
His frugality is an unshakeable faith that he is but a conduit, letting what is needed flow through him to others, with no loss to himself.

Sixty – Two
Basic meaning of angel number “62”
The basic meaning of angel number “62” is “trust the world” and “believe that small life problems work like miracles”.
Angel number “62” conveys the message that even if life does not go well or is hurt by relationships, it should not be a resentment or disbelief in “the world / human beings (people)”.
Believe that the essence of people is “good” and treat them kindly, even if not all human beings seem right.
Doing so may increase your fortune and miraculously clear up minor life problems.
Welcome to WOTC! A Thought for Today
I’m more of a skeptic of all religion but honestly given the way I feel
deep down inside Wicca is a much better fit because At least under that system the Pantheon above considers men and women equal, Gods and Goddesses.
As above, so below.
As in if in the heavens the sexes are equal then down on the earth below they are as well
I’m- I have trouble believing anything
I’m too scientifically educated to believe anything too easily.
Even having seen success with Candle magick i’m like what if I didn’t burn what would have happened? I don’t know. There’s no control on those experiments.
So I can’t really be confident all I can tell you is I used the candles and something like what I wanted showed up.

Six/6 of Cups
…
The Upright Meaning
While the Six of Cups is related to our childhood attitudes towards life, it almost never represents our childhoods in the past position.
You’re going to want to examine your more recent history to determine when you could have acted more mature towards the things life put in your path.
Your innocence in the past towards a life event is what has lead you to your current position.
If the Six of Cups appears in your current position, it means that you are living in the moment, and are able to enjoy it without consequence.
This happy-go-lucky attitude is working for you, so long as you are remembering to keep the rest of your life in order as well.
In the future position, the Six of Cups is a wonderful conclusion to your current situation. Despite what the other cards in your spread say, there are good days ahead.
Reversed Position
A reversed Six of Cups is a warning you cannot ignore. This means that you are still being affected by events from your past. It’s important to recognize the signs of lasting trauma, and to remind yourself that you can ask for help, even if you feel alone.
You must encourage yourself to deal with the past, not dwell on it, in order to move forward.

Rune
Hagalaz
Hagalaz is about destructive natural forces: earthquakes, storms, lightening, and all ways that the raw power of nature cannot be controlled. In this sense it is also associated with the unconscious mind, an energy which must be respected and cannot be successfully resisted. You might not be happy about the destructive force of hagalaz but it will bring an end to things and thus create space for something new. This is the cycle of karma.

The Rings
Keywords: Love, relationships.
Meanings: The Rings is the rune of love and when it is the leading stone, it is a positive answer to your question. It is very much a rune of relationship and can indicate engagement, marriage or a new/renewed relationship. It can also indicate the need for a fresh approach to an existing relationship.

Straif
The ogham symbol Straif has the phonetic value of St, and corresponds to the blackthorn or sloe tree, which is known for its magical power. Staves made from its wood were carried by wizards, warlocks, and witches.
In Irish sagas, the blackthorn has association with battle, sacrifice, transformation, and death. It’s also said to be sacred to Donn of the Milesians, the Irish god of death, as well as to goddess Morrighan who oversees matters of war and death.
I Ching
Hexagram Four/4
Moutain Above, Water Below
Be on guard for the careless or rebellious attitudes characteristic of inexperience. Just as a youth requires instruction, this is a good time to focus on learning lessons from a patient teacher or from life experience. Is there a circumstance in your life that you have failed to comprehend, perhaps because you didn’t appreciate its inherent complexities? Be respectful of anything or anyone who has something to teach you right now. If you are focusing on a relationship, ask yourself which of you is currently the student and which of you is the sage. If you are a parent ask yourself: Who is being the teacher – my child or me?
In order to be ready for challenging times, let education be an ongoing part of your life. Develop the necessary mind-set and willpower to carry you through confusing times. The wise realize that experience – especially difficult experience- is a most powerful teacher. But we cannot be forced to learn, even from experience. Be the humble student who delights in learning, the one who nourishes an expanding awareness.
Examine your attitude for factors that would limit your openness. Observe how you deal with the mistakes of others. Let people live their own lives and learn their own lessons. You may offer them your wisdom or advice, but do so only if they are receptive. Give up trying to convince others that you are right, as it is both exhausting and counterproductive. Instead, all other to proceed, even into difficult or dangerous circumstances. It may be the only way they can learn; and without learning, no one can achive success. Care without forcing attention; trying to take care of someone who is unwilling can actually be harmful. Live and let learn.
