Everything Under the Moon

In Wicca, discovering the religion in old age is considered the second best outcome other than finding it as a child. It has some very exceptional advantages like the fact that you've already overcome the fear of death (or you're preparing to), and that your entire life is already filled with experi...

Strange... I am based in Louisiana, too. What a strange omen. Do any of you recommend things to do or places to see while I'm here?

There're lizards everywhere in my area. A lot of frogs, too. For those who believe humans are killing nature, I hate to break it to you like this, but it has found a way to survive in spite of all the threats to its habitat. :P They always come out of the least suspecting areas. In places close to t...

Physically or as in banishing?

I'm just requesting that anyone who sees this cast banishing spells or as much white magick/holy energy as you can possibly give because my life has always been cursed with bad luck. While things are going well for me now, I identify that they will not always be this way, and just ask that you all b...

There is a lot of individualism here and I really take a liking to that.

I forget things all the time, haha! You have no idea what you don't know. I think it's more normal than you think.

Memory is a very fickle thing, as you may search your mind through events past– only to find nothing. More often than not, it is trauma that causes one to forget something entirely, but it is lesser known that sometimes humans repress even good experiences that were so overwhelming that you could no...

The winter solstice is said to be the time of year when the veil between the spirit world and the physical world is thinnest. Like Samhain, it is believed that one can even see and talk to theirs and others souls without any effort, but unlike its counterpart, Yule is more of a celebration of life r...

Thank you Corbin. And yes a common response to those who say you need religion to have a basis for morality is “is the threat of help the only thing that keeps you from killing or stealing?” Having experienced power shut off due to nonpayment and my family nearly losing our house, I always say that...

The Wiccan Rede says “harm ye none and do as thou will.” Would harm in this case include passive harm, i. e. not helping others, especially those unable to help themselves. Does it require charity? It necessarily must, as that would include self-defence. If you let other people hurt you , that's st...

I used to be an insomniac as a teen. Whenever I did sleep, I never dreamt anything. It was just pure black. The sleep deprivation gave me all kinds of creative ideas and aligned me closer to my higher, enlightened self. I can definitely relate to what you're talking about, not only from personal exp...

It is about that time of year, so I just want to wish everyone a happy winter solstice and holiday in general. Yuletide is the original holiday which Christmas and Hannukah are based, so pay respects to the ancestor/nature spirits as thanks!!

I myself have experimented with Christian magick and I was quite pleased with the results. Thank you for your time in the service, and welcome to the forums!

Thanks, Firebird! And remember: the best way to ensure a board stays active... is to talk on it!
