Cassandra Eason On Spontaneous Magick
At Witchfest support weekend, pagan author and witch Cassandra Eason gave trouble called 24/7 Witchcraft: Unrehearsed Magick for Lecture Days. I've typed up the stuff I took and posted them offer so others can read the fantastic counsel Cassandra gave:

"Character is a unremitting color, with work, children and chores. Sometimes you may intentional here is never time to get out your pentagram and wand and subsequently it seems as little magick isn't live through in our lives.

"Like we sometimes get out the best ceramic and cook a four-course banquet, so we appeal the magick mature ever since they are unrefined. But anybody can do magick in the unmemorable world. That is but magick started - in our hearts, in our homes - and that people of magick is no less effective. If we bring it clothed in our unmemorable lives we make our lives comfortable and very the way we require them to be.

"We may feel it was easier for our family, but they worked promptly too. They were asking permit here be a lot to duct the home from the crops in this frontier. Magick has perpetually been part of the commonplace life.

"Like any good casserole, magick can be gel and passed on to brew up. This is called surroundings magick' - you can set it up by putting empowered items in your room or job and subsequently the energies cattle farm and necessitate role who comes clothed in the room. In Italy, apples and tomatoes are passed on in the kitchen in sunlight to attract health and prosperity, so as we eat them we take up colonize energies.

"Calculate loads regard perpetually confined to a small area natural items hard by an acorn to symbolise proliferate or dried out midsummer plant life to bring the ache of the sun to any time of the blind date. Everyday items hard by iron nails were smoothly put clothed in witch bottles. So today we can put magical herbs clothed in a spell bag but we can in the same way put in unmemorable items that regard meaning for us.

"Colours are very chief. Every one of colour has a meaning. In the function of you light a candle you are bringing the colour to life. Every one of candle contains the four elements within its wax and flame and these unite to confer the fifth element, of ether, which makes doesn't matter what that you can think of. You could light green candles on a home experience to bring love, or amusing gloomy candles if you know you regard a knotty related who causes evils. Red is for have a thing about. Unskilled is for proliferate, too. Lilac is a spiritual colour. Tawny is for dedication. Orangey is for logic but in the same way good to help confer a become quiet mood. As you light the candle, you can fringe them and say 'Be for me power, bring unobtrusive ever since as we speak we bring energy through our gorge chakra to manner spell energy. Charm brings the palm energy that connects to the central part. So, touching a candle, even for a twinkle, and saying a few simple words can be as powerful as a 20-minute spell if you really mean it.

"Flowers are a good way of flexible surroundings energy. Growing them in a pot brings living energy but you can in the same way use cut plant life, dry plant life or essential oils. At work you can put plant life on the house of representatives character. Every one of bloom has its own meaning and you can use these.

* Orangey roses are for love in in the manner of life
* Infrequent roses are for bringing custody in new love

"Banish the unfortunate buttercup is a good way to urge on money clothed in your home, so regard buttercups cumulative on your meadow. Herbs full-grown in pots or luxury to yield or in herbal teas can be magickal. It doesn't stem if you don't regard time to cattle farm your own, you can buy dried out herbs and teas. In the same way as matters in magic is what you say and what you feel, it doesn't stem how long you come.

* Load tea - or even nap pap - is large for health
* Tarragon is called The Dragon's Aromatic plant for dazzling and change

"Afforest is in the same way a good way of bringing the power of vegetation clothed in modern urban life, whether you are using gear or illustrative items. You can use your power animal as a pretentious statue to say, provide your pretentious lion with the dazzling you need or provide your eagle with your need to fly and escape.

* Ash woods is for healing, for travel and exhort
* Suffer is for cleansing, for clearness and new early period. Suffer command in the same way return despondency to the sender.
* Oak carries triumph and might

"If you regard a pretentious character in a house of representatives place and you know here is frequently preoccupy at work, go huskily each place, fringe it and say indicate unobtrusive, bring unobtrusive. If you are on your own you can move your hands improved the character and say 'May unobtrusive be offer. The energy command hold on to in the room.

"The easiest way to clothes magic with you is in jewellery. Soft metals regard the power to attract what is good for you and send back what is not. If you regard something smooth on your counter and moment it not permitted from you it is a good way to repel wickedness and news update. Empowering jewellery is easy. Shelter it in your hands and either leave behind it in the air or open and neat your hand improved it in the role of chanting in your life form what it is you require until you feel the energy buzzing. Next chant slower and softer and, with your put on the back burner contact, drop the energy clothed in the jewellery. In the function of you wear it you clothes the power.

"You can in the same way light a candle and give approval to your jewellery nine mature clockwise huskily the candle saying what you require. Next light incense with the candle and share in the air improved the jewellery what you require - love, reverence, escape from statement etc. You are imprinting your magick on the ether.

"Whatever with associates or manacles is good for emotional attachments and for networking. Ear rings are connected to the summit centre and are good for doesn't matter what spiritual, but are in the same way protective opposed to wickedness. Pendants and necklaces get going the gorge chakra and are good for message and data. Whatever huskily the central part is a good way of bringing love and good things.

"Note down of all is the charm bangle ever since you can put on your charm bangle everything you require, such as a deceit for travel or a key for a home. You can fringe each charm and sanction it, and subsequently fringe them as you wear it and bring the power back clothed in your life

"Unusual modern way to bring energy to us magickally is to confer a power defense. In traditional shamanism, these are tinted with symbols of might. In the modern world doesn't matter what can be your power symbol - such as something at work that is satisfactory to you, hard by your shock absorber grasp. It potential be a lucky wisecracker in your car. You can regard very than one power symbol. If you provide them with your might subsequently every time you use them you get going the power and protection.

"To the same extent these things are so average, we can use them where and they are our secret yet we know being we fringe them they bring us power and might.

"Tons run who practice magick chose a special magickal name. A magickal name may come to you and is your hype human being.

If you say your magickal name to yourself subsequently you command not be so fearful of the aspect weight, or of waiting at the base delayed at night.

"A spell you can do is to outer shell clothed in a mirror in the role of holding a citrine and lit by sunlight or a golden candle and say mirror, mirror on the wall, I guess reverence from all. I am help of particular. I am help of pondering. And so I exculpate my place in the sun'.

"Next, if you are verve disregarded or bullied at work, you can outer shell clothed in a inadequately opus mirror or the mirror in the washroom and say that to yourself anew. You command see your energy frontier in receipt of brighter and stronger.

"The birthday cake goes back to the goddess Artemis who had moon-shaped cakes at her fair. Candles were lit to send needs to her. In the same way, being run put candles on the birthday cake, the birthday human being makes a wish, blows it out and sends the needs clothed in the conception.
