All About Magic Spells And Wicca

Article by Crystal Whitestone

Wicca and witchcraft are dotted across every corner of the web. As you browse for Wicca, you will always stumble upon spells and magic. This is because magic spells and spell casting are a big part of Wiccans' ritual practices.

You might have heard of Wiccan spells for healing, protection, love, fertility, money or success. These examples of positive and good magic are often called the white magic. The opposite of these kinds of spells is black magic. Black magic has been popular since ancient times because it is associated with ultimate power, evil and Satanism.

It is important to know the roots of Wicca to be able to separate the good and bad facts about Wicca.

Wicca is a pagan religion which believes in both gods and goddesses. This belief that is comparable to the Taoist belief in "yin" and "yang", and also Christian beliefs of Jesus and the Devil. The Wiccan god is associated with nature, wilderness, hunting, and sexuality. The goddess is pre-eminent.

Magic and magic spells are part of common Wiccan practices (often called witchcraft or sorcery). Magic is defined as the science and art of causing change through the power of nature and the universe. For Wiccans, magic is a law of nature.

There is no fixed set of ethical codes or guidelines followed by Wiccans; however, virtually all Wiccan practitioners follow the Wiccan Rede. The Wiccan Rede states that "an it harm none, do what ye will." (the first word "an" basically means "if" in old Middle English language). This moral compass helps Wiccas to consider their actions and keep them inline with Wiccan beliefs.

Wiccans also follow the Law of Threefold Return. This is similar to the idea of karma found in Hinduism. Basically the law says that every good or bad deed one person does to another, will return to that person with triple force some time in the future.

Ther are five natural elements in Wiccan traditions, rather than the normal 4 most of us are familiar with. The five elements are Air, Fire, W! ater, Ea rth, and the extra one is "Aether" or "spirit". Five different points of a pentagram represent each element, and as such the pentagram is a fundamental shape in Wiccan tradition.

Lastly, Wicca does not follow any particular book like Christianity and the Bible, or Islam and the Koran. One book does exist (The Book of Shadows) but it is just a collection of spells which has been updated and extended over history.

Disapproving Faces: Not Everybody Will Like You

Image
Not everybody we meet will like us and it is ok to move into acceptance rather than trying to make somebody like you. It is not necessarily a pleasant experience, but there will be times in our lives when we come across people who do not like us. As we know, like attracts like, so usually when they don't like us it is because they are not like us. Rather than taking it personally, we can let them be who they are, accepting that each of us is allowed to have different perspectives and opinions. When we give others that freedom, we claim it for ourselves as well, releasing ourselves from the need for their approval so we can devote our energy toward more rewarding pursuits. While approval from others is a nice feeling, when we come to depend on it we may lose our way on our own path. There are those who will not like us no matter what we do, but that doesn't mean that there is anything wrong with us. Each of us has our own filters built from our experiences over time. The...

Azurite and malachite

Image
by The Online Jeweller Magazine Article by Jimmy Reinard Azurite and malachite are both crystals formed by the weathering process that breaks down natural copper ore deposits. Azurite is a striking brilliant blue colour, with a hardness of around 3.5 to 4 on the Mohs scale as well as a specific gravity of around 3.77 to 3.89 and a refractive index of 1.655-1.909. Azurite is mined for use in paint pigments, often producing a range of blues dependent on the mineral's natural color.Malachite is the Greek translation of moloche, meaning mallow, due to its color.Unfortunately, azurite is unstable in most conditions and loses its brilliant blue color over time or is replaced by its more stable cousin, malachite. Malachite shares the same properties as azurite but appears as a vibrant green mineral. Unlike Azurite, malachite does not require the special handling making it more suitable for use in jewelry but i...
