Re: Using Magic to Defeat Evil Power Structures?
I agree with Kassandra, the best efforts are personal ones. The strongest possible magic you can use to fight an evil power structure is to use your civic rights to protest and organize against them. The best way to fight fear--and therefore, dark magic--is with facts and knowledge. Not even kidding...

Re: Need a second opinion on possible 'signs'
Small update to this. I spoke with Apollo for a bit and got a definite 'yes' that it was him trying to reach me. :D I honestly didn't know what to expect speaking to him, thought it'd just be a light energy but not at all. When he joined me I knew immediately, his presence is really strong and heav...

Re: Solar Eclipse, August 21, 2017
Silly question, but did anyone feel unusual during the eclipse? I felt sick and nauseous all day before and during my ritual. The day previous to the eclipse and the day after it happened, I felt fine (aside from the small cold I'd been fighting beforehand, but that was unrelated). It didn't dampen ...

Re: Coca cola
The most likely agent in there is the high-fructose corn syrup and the preservatives, I think. Coca Cola is also highly acidic, and thus kills bacteria that can't thrive in such environments. I usually use honey, when I have it. If I need to remove rust, I use white vinegar. I've never used Coke bef...

Re: Need a second opinion on possible 'signs'
Choosing a deity to work with is no small matter. Sometimes, more than one god(dess) may have an interest in you (or vice versa). What are things that are important to you as a human being? Arts? Music? Strength? Protection? Love? Wealth? Friends and Family? There are patron deities for every single...

Re: Using Dance in Witchcraft
Well... A Dine friend of mine taught me a rain dance once, when I was a kid. Ever since, I can't help but dance it during very heavy thunderstorms, and sometimes just during light drizzles. It's probably my favorite rite because it's just so simple and so powerful to me. What's better than dancing i...

Re: Solar Eclipse spells and rituals?
I took the chance to banish an unwelcome entity from my life. It was tough, but I feel much lighter after I chased her away.

Re: Ever Felt Unsure About Deity?
I feel unsure about my path all the time, to be frank. The most I can say is to just feel it out. Do some cursory research first to see if anything about Freya jumps out at you. Read up on some of the myths behind the goddess, and then see if you can feel or listen for her. Sometimes, the gods are j...

Re: Help with a love spell
One's own variety of magic is deeply personal and highly unique from practitioner to practitioner, almost like a fingerprint. Even if you have two witches casting the exact same spell with the exact same tools and ingredients and time, you'll likely get two very different results. Go with what feels...

Unseely spirit guide
So, I have this friend. Who's been 'around' a while. Her name's Jean. Every time I 'see' her, she has short fire-engine red hair, a denim jacket or a plaid shirt and ripped up jeans and scuffed up pants. Fairly sure she's a lesbian, but she's never told me. A while ago when we 'talked' last, she sai...

Re: Lughnasadh, coming up!
Moving to Oregon. I've had a Snow Goose totem for a while, and I've been getting strongly Oregon-flavored urges to migrate. Hopefully by the time Lugh rolls around I'll have a place to stay and have at least a part-time job.

Re: Solar Eclipse, August 21, 2017
What would be the best way to bind up some of that energy, by the by? I can imagine a total solar eclipse's energy would pack one heck of a wallop, bound properly.

Re: Appeasing Hera?
Apologize, and ask her what you should do. I don't think asking us is going to improve her opinion. Snow Good point. Thanks. UPDATE: I went to the craft store and made a small ornament out of peacock feathers and beads, and left a piece of chocolate on the table. I said I was sorry. In return, felt...

Appeasing Hera?
I did something ill-advised, and I believe I just insulted Hera. Whoops.... :( :( :( :( I asked Hera for help with something very important, and she did it. In exchange I promised I would burn something for her on the mountain where I worked (the meadow at the camp I work at is very beautiful). The ...
