Between Lives
The length of time spent between lives may vary, depending on
your study of the lessons learned and their integration with previous
lessons; also on the necessary preparation for the next "semester".
While between lives you might also become involved in helping some
other spirit here on earth.  Just as there is development and advancement
in this life, so there is in "the between times". You may have heard
of such things as "Guardian Angels" as "Spirit Guides". and wondered
if they really exist. In a sense they do. It means that a spirit is always
watching over a less developed spirit here on earth. Since time does not
exist in the between times (it is a human made concept, for the sake of
reference only) then to watch over an earth bound spirit for its whole earthly
lifetime would not actually hinder the watcher's progress. In fact,
it would add to it in the sense of gaining "student teacher" experience.
Witches always hope that they will be reborn in the next life with those they
have known and loved in this one. For psychic experiences. etc.,
it seems that this is often the case. Many times a couple will stay together throughout
a number of lifetimes, in different relationship roles
(e.g. lovers; husband-wife; brother-sister; mother-daughter).

The Introduction to becoming a Witch

Image
And so you are feeling confused, alone and lost... Were do I begin? where do I learn? what books should I find? are there other witches out there? why do people pick on me because i'm so different?.. All of these are all things that all of us have thought to ourselves as we began our Journey of the awakening.. often times when we find that we are very different than most folks perhaps in personality, or because our spiritual gifts seperate us from the mundane flock of everyday sheep we feel isolated and alone.  We find ourselves knowing we are different, we have these wonderful gifts but clueless on how to begin learning what they are and how to use them properly.  I hope here you can find some solace and know that you are not alone, many many modern witches today, especially those of us who dwell in cities and not so much in rural areas it is quite difficult to practice the old ways, I plan to use as many citations and find references (if they are still around on the web af

Building your Temple and Your Altar and It's Furniture

Image
Your Altar and It's Furniture You can use virtually anything as an altar.  If you are holding your Circle outside, then a large rock or a tree stump is ideal.  If you are indoors, then you can utilize a small coffee table, a wooden box or even some boards resting on bricks. It is better to have an altar that does not contain any steel, so a ready made table is not really the best (unless glued or pegged together).  If there has to be metal in the table, brass is acceptable. Why is this? It has to do with conductivity.  The Witch's Knife and Sword (and Wand, if used) are the only tools that are used for storing and directing energies.  They, then, can be of a conductive metal iron or steel.  All other items should be non conductive silver, gold, brass, stone, wood since they are not used in that fashion. but why not have a little aestheticism with your atar? Why do not do things properly? You are working in a circle, so why not a circular altar? To me, a r

Reincarnation

Citations: Artlink- art link- http://wonderlustboudoir.blogspot.com/ Excerpts from Bucklands Complete Book of Witchcraft Reincarnation Reincarnation is an ancient belief.  It is part of many religions (Hinduism and Buddhism, for example) and was even one of the original Christian tenets, until condemned by the Second Council of Constantinople in 553.  It is believed that the human spirit, or soul, is a fragment of the divine and eventually it will return to its devine source.  But, for its own evolution, it is  necessary that the soul experience all things in life. It seems the most sensible, most logical, explanation of much that is found in life. Why should one person be born into a  rich family and another into poverty? why should one be born crippled, another fit and strong? if not because we must all eventually experience all things. Reincarnation seems the most logical explanation of child prodigies. A musical genius, composing concert
