Instead of Candle Spells, Try…a Cup of Tea
Aren’t those all-day candle spells great? If you can stay home with it all day, which I can’t. Or if you can burn a candle at work, which in my case is highly frowned upon at my workplace. So here’s an alternative I tested out and found it worked quite delightfully. Not fire magick but…

The Ethics of Glamour
A trick of presence. Body language and a thought pressed into the air. I’ve used glamour to disappear, and I’ve watched others wear it like perfume — until the energy ran out. I am glamour-free.

Showing Her Cards
Four in the morning, headache splitting, and the urge to throw protection over someone I love. Instead I sit with it. Allowing miracles. Watching the cat play with her pretty bird.

Resurrection Meditation: Following into the Dark
Copyrighted by Lorna Tedder. Originally published in Third Degree Rising. One of the great things about having a leisurely (by comparison) weekend is having the chance to spend a little time working on my spiritual pursuits. My meditations have been shortchanged with all the excess work recently, and I’ve found that when I’ve had time…

Look! I’m Manifesting Elephants!
Once you get pretty good at understanding how the Law of Attraction works–or how magick works–or how prayer works, it can be a little amusing to see your desires given to you so soon after you ask. I am so amused tonight that I’m still laughing because apparently, I’m manifesting elephants to take care of…

Manifesting Men
While in Daytona, Maggie Shayne reminded me of one of the earliest lessons I had in magick—structuring reality…also known as manifestation. It’s not that I had forgotten it. At this point in my spiritual path, it’s inherent in everything that I do, but I needed to be reminded of the process, how things move through…

I Don’t Know What This Is But I’m Grateful
I knew today the blocks were breaking free when Maggie asked me to ask my guides something and I immediately got a full-fledged interactive vision that I relayed to her. It just…came. And I think it was as powerful for me as for her. I didn’t realize I had this in me to give or…

The To-Do-Do-Do List
For such a crazy week, today turned out pretty good in that ordinary, mundane sort of way. Though I knew when I wrote shave my legs on my to-do list, I was already too busy. From the Bookshelf Unapologetically Happy — 23 lessons from a life reimagined, and your permission slip to find happiness on…

Delegating: the Hardest Part of Prayer, Magick, and the Law of Attraction
I’ve always had a hard time delegating, and that probably explains problems I’ve had with both Christian prayer, Wiccan magick, and the Law of Attraction. Among those who practice the Law of Attraction and those who practice Magick, whether they are Wiccan or some other variety of paganism, I’ve been ridiculed for not being able…

A Time and a Place for Magick
Many a false step was made by standing still. -Fortune Cookie Sometimes you have to pull yourself out of the Ether to make things happen. Sometimes you have to take action in a very concrete, physical way. Or, as an old friend once told me, “Sometimes the best magick is to ask your questions directly.”…

A Breakthrough: “For the Highest Good of All” and Other Caveats
What I learned from my conversation with Dorothy was that I’ve become too enmeshed with the philosophies of some of my spiritual friends. That’s not uncommon for me, being a Double Pisces, because I do tend to mesh with others, and while that’s a lovely thing to happen in a romance, it’s not always the…

Better to Rush Upon this Blade
Oh, the power of words! Especially when said in a ritual circle. As my Circle grows, I find it helpful to discuss situations with other High Priests and High Priestesses because at some point, I’m going to be asked a question I really cannot answer and that the questioner really cannot find a correct answer…
