#spellsandmagic

I also tried some spells myself. I'm not wiccan, or a witch, but I saw a lot of books at the local barnes & noble, so I thought I'd try it. I bought a bunch, maybe 4 or 5, but ended up liking a lot of spells from a book called "Simple Love Spells" by Barrie Dolnik. I'd say at least they "sort of" worked. I could always get the guy to call me by doing this one spell, but it would never seem to last or have staying power. He wouldn't call again unless I did another spell. So the "Call Me Spell" worked, but I couldn't really get him to love me like I"d hoped. I guess I'm just not that powerful. So I know this stuff works, that's why I'm looking for someone out there who is stronger and more experienced about this stuff, do to it for me. I would recommend this book for anyone who wants to try spells themselves. No weird things are required, either!

There are any number of articles, books, and magazines that have asked whether witchcraft is real or just a myth, but a large number of such publications have a tendency to direct their thoughts towards magic and spells rather than looking into what witchcraft really is. In order to understand witchcraft it is necessary to examine the beliefs and history behind it. Witchcraft is a Pagan religion meaning that it does not follow the three main religious paths of Judaism, Islam, or Christianity. The fundamental belief of witchcraft is the worship of nature often seen through ceremonies involving the seasons, moon, and sun. This does not mean that ancient civilizations which worshiped the sun, for instance, followed witchcraft. We are all aware that the Egyptians revered the sun as a God called Ra but this did not make them witches, merely a Pagan society as we would explain it today. Ancient civilizations that worshiped nature would not see themselves as Pagan as it was just the way of life for them at the time. Paganism is a relatively modern concept. We tend to look back through history with eyes clouded by our modern religions which are not really that old. Our ancestors worshiped many different things long before organized religion surfaced and some of their practices have been linked to witchcraft because of their focus on nature. Witchcraft is classified today as a Pagan religion which means that it is has a belief system which is followed by its practitioners much like any other religion in the world. The more traditional forms of witchcraft do not adhere to any type of strict code but more modern variations, such as Wicca, have evolved into what we would call a more regimented form of religious practice. The fact that witchcraft is now seen as a form of religion makes it as real as any other belief system. Christians believe in Christianity and witches believe in witchcraft, both are equally viable as a religion as their practitioners believe them to be true. Magic and spells are a topic unto themselves and our perception of them has been altered by the likes of Hollywood to such an extent that it is harder to explain. This article covers the basic concepts of witchcraft by asking Is Witchcraft Real, the more complex nature of magic, and its existence will need to be discussed in other articles.

My brain is stuck to my skull. School started on Wednesday. Children are lost, have forgotten their lunch, are dressed inappropriately, can't remember their names. Thanks to our cracker jack staff we've lived to tell the tale and so have the children. I think. I guess I should call their homes and make sure.

Which brings me to today's question from a reader:

A young (30-something) friend of mine teaches in a Catholic School - middle school aged children. She teaches religion, among other subjects. On a recent retreat, she admitted that, while she calls herself a Catholic, she doesn't believe in The Blessed Virgin Mary, the Sacrament of Reconciliation, the Pope's infallability, celibacy for priests, male-only priesthood, Purgatory, Saints, offering sacrifices... the list goes on and on. She feels if "it isn't written in the Bible, it isn't from God." Can you tell she went to a non-Catholic Bible college? My eyes must have been bugging out of my head - because she took offense at my reaction. SO - in this day of poor catechesis - what's a person to do? Beg her not to fill children's heads with inaccuracies? Talk to her principal? Ask her why she thinks she's a Catholic? I am praying for her, and her students - and ask that others do so as well. Let's tackle the last part first. What's a person to do? All of the above. She can believe anything she wants, including that aliens have landed and that she is in danger of becoming a giant peapod, but she better be teaching what the Church teaches, so asking her not to fill children's heads with her own made up cafeteria of faith is a good move. So is talking to the principal. I'm not sure asking her why she thinks she's a Catholic is appropriate, but I'd sure like to know the answer to that one. I'd also like to know how she comes up with the idea that the Blessed Virgin Mary is not in the bible. I'm pretty sure she's mentioned. I'm guessing this teacher is one of those folks who doesn't believe in praying for the intercession of the Blessed Mother. And guess what? That's not a problem. She can skip that altogether as a Catholic. She can skip the intercession of the saints as well. We don't mind. (Even if it means a few less Christmas orders this year.) But as long as she's at it, I hope she's at least consistent in her beliefs and doesn't ask anyone else to pray for her either. Why bother? It's all between you and Jesus, right? I don't mind. The situation will free up some of our time. What she can't do is tell people not to believe in intercessory prayer. That would be bad. I have a feeling she actually does believe in intercessory prayer. She does if she's ever asked someone to remember her in their prayers. Perhaps she has a grudge against the saints. Many people do. They make us feel so inadequate, what with getting their fingers chewed off by the Iroquois and being roasted to death on a grill and being shot full of arrows and saying only, "I forgot to duck!" Wait...that was Ronald Reagan.......St. Lawrence had the Reaganesque comment when he was being roasted, "Turn me over, I'm done on this side!" I think he also said something about dinner being ready soon. Purgatory IS in the Bible. It's just in a part of the Bible that the Protestants threw out. She might want to make sure she has a Catholic Bible. Maccabees 12:46: "Thus he made atonement for the dead that they might be freed from sin." Please explain what this means if there is no Purgatory. Dead people in heaven don't have to be freed from sin. Dead people in hell aren't getting freed from anything. The Catholic church just gave that place a name. A purging place...hmmm a purgatorium.....Purgemart...PurgeyWorld...PurgeInn... I think they came up with a pretty good name for it. A more interesting question is: how did Maccabees get thrown out of the Protestant Bible? Martin Luther was mad because the Church was selling indulgences. He was right about that being very bad. The Church at the time actually had a jingle to go with their sales pitch ("As soon as the coin into the coffer rings, another soul into Heaven springs." I hope it had a cathcy tune), that's how bad it was. But then Martin Luther went and just took things out of the Bible he didn't want to be in there. He was mad about indulgences so he took out the reference to Purgatory. Way to go, Martin. Problem solved. Let's all try this tactic at tax time next year. What W-2's? I'd like to find out what she thinks Jesus meant by, "Whose sins you forgive are forgiven them, and whose sins you retain are retained" (John 20:23). Maybe I only dreamed that was in the Bible. Maybe I read it somewhere else. "Travels with Jesus and His Pals Chicken Soup for the Confessional All I Need to Know I Learned in Kindergarten...or from Jesus", perhaps. Here's more on Confession. And other stuff. The only area worth discussing on her list (her list so far) is the celibacy thing, since we actually do have some married priests in the Church as we speak. Oh well. Won't she be surprised if she finds herself in Purgatory with the Blessed Mother bringing her water, while one of her uncatechised students seated next to her mentions that they both would have been better off going to confession once in a while.

Prayerfully, the New Year will bring a new little bundle of joy to the LRM family! After considerable time and effort, "Interactive Master Planning" will now have a companion book! Since many people move through the Christmas season and then begin to think about accountability in the New Year, how about a snippet from the section on "Implementation"? IS ACCOUNTABILITY A BIBLICAL PHENOMENON? The church is unusual. The "priesthood of believers" or the "saints called by God to accomplish His ministry" do much of the work. Serving in the church is a very lofty calling. However, (using secular terms) if we consider the bulk of our workforce, that workforce translates into volunteers. Volunteers may have great hearts but sometimes lack full commitment. Most people want to do their assigned tasks well. They want to serve the Lord. However, given the opportunity to postpone or avoid the accomplishment of their ministry tasks, they typically will. This is the unfortunate result of the sinful nature. Leaders MUST set up systems to check that God's goals are being accomplished. In the early implementation stages of the plan, the establishment of precedence is very important. Most workers will take their lead as to whether the process is serious or not based on early reactions to work completed or not completed. Leaders must lovingly exhort those who are falling behind and enthusiastically applaud those who are working according to the plan. All must understand that the work that is being done is important, significant and essential to the accomplishment of the master plan. "ACCOUNTABILITY IS A NATURAL STEP OF THE PROCESS OF IMPLEMENTATION." Peter was called by Jesus Christ to serve as a leader in the Church. However, even Peter was not free to act without accountability. Let's go back to Acts and spend a moment looking at an example of Peter being brought before other church leaders with some strong criticism. In Acts chapter 10, we read of a man named Cornelius. He was a Roman centurion - a very powerful man who was "devout and God-fearing." (In other words, he wasn't Jewish but he was a follower of the teachings of Judaism.) Cornelius had a vision to send for Peter. Peter likewise had a vision. However, this vision involved the eating of animals that Jewish dietary law considered unclean. Peter would not violate that law but he was commanded in the dream to not call anything impure that God considered clean. Peter was trying to figure out this vision when he was commanded by the Spirit to go with men to the house of Cornelius. "THEN GOD MOVED..." Peter shared and the Holy Spirit filled the household of Cornelius. They were all baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ. It was an incredible time of praise and joy! "Then people reacted..." Peter went back to Jerusalem and had to "answer" for what he had done (Acts 11). "Circumcised" believers (meaning they were in outward agreement with the Law) did not agree with Peter going into the house of Cornelius. Although they had heard that the Gentiles had received the Word of God, they were upset that the Law had been "violated." In response, Peter related his vision, the vision of Cornelius and the moving of the Holy Spirit when the Gospel was shared. What happened next? "When they heard this, they had no further objections and praised God, saying, "So then, God has granted even the Gentiles repentance unto life. Acts 11:18 Although we might question the underlying motivation of the circumcised believers, there is truly nothing wrong with what they did. It was important for people to understand what God was doing in and through the early church. We can look back and celebrate this incredible gift of a living and active Word that still speaks. God gave His Word so that His people may know of His love and His will. It is the story of His historical dealings with His people. The main premise of the Bible is to reveal to us our need for God and His unconditional willingness to meet that need. We are a sinful people, incapable of accomplishing our own salvation. Jesus Christ was the means through which our salvation was granted. The Bible itself is a tool of accountability, exhorting us to press on. "Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us. "Hebrews 12: 1 In the Old Testament, the priests and prophets were God's accountability agents. In the New Testament, the disciples were accountable to Jesus and to one another. Leaders today are accountable to Jesus and should be accountable to one another. Implementation will require accountability. On the front end of the planning process, establish time line of accountability. Determine who is accountable to whom and an accepted mechanism for activating that accountability. In most cases, building a system of mutually agreed upon checks and balances initially will keep them from ever having to be used!

A reproduction of a full page add from "PSYCHIC GUIDE" Sep/Oct/Nov, 1986 Vol. 5 No. 2 "...it isn't a question of if I win, only when" - Jerry Falwell "We do not want a democracy in this land because, if we have a democracy, a majority rules." - Rev. Charles Stanley "The fundamentalist right is going beyond seeking to change the laws of the country to conform to their religious beliefs, so that everyone must comply under penalty of punishment. They are exhibiting a kind of fanaticism that leaves no room for those who may disagree..." - Senator Frank Church, defeated in 1982 by NCR (New Christian Right) campaign "Around the country, Moral Majority spokesmen have called for the banning of textbooks and sued librarians to obtain the names of borrowers of materials they sought to censor." - Conway and Siegelamn from their book "Holy Terror" According to Jerry Falwell, "freezeniks," as he calls those who support a nuclear freeze, are "allies of the Russians." "I laid aside my law practice and concentrated on researching and exposing the New Age Movement!" - Constance Cumbey, author of the Christian bestseller, "Hidden Dangers of the Rainbow" "Without the use of occultic automatic writing, there would not be any books by Ruth Montgomery on the market. Make no mistake about it, reincarnation is occult and satanic to the core!" - Robert A. Morey "Reincarnation & Christianity" "All the practices described in this article are carried on in concert with demonic spirits." (Astrology, Past Life Regression, Hypnosis, ESP, Graphology, etc.) - Jimmy Swaggart "We are in a battle for their minds." (Speaking about his goal to "christianize" teaching methods in the U.S.A.) - Tim LaHaye "Holistic doctors, holistic counseling is all a ploy to get people sucked in the political structure of the New Age movement." - Constance Cumbey on Southwest Radio Chruch "Good Christians, like slaves and soldiers, ask no questions." - Jerry Falwell "There'll be no peace until Jesus comes. That's what the antichrist promises. Any preaching of peace prior to his return is heresy; it's against the word of God; it's anti-Christ." - James Robison national televangelist. THE RADICAL CHRISTIAN RIGHT IS WORKING HARD TO DESTROY THE NEW AGE MOVEMENT!...... and guess what? What happened to the dream? Progress in social programs, civil liberties, women's rights, arms control and environmental protection grew out of the turmoil of the '60s and '70s. New Age awareness was a profound influence and the dream of peaceful planetary transformation was becoming a reality. But today, our dream is being dismantled by the forces of ignorance and intolerance. Destiny now presents us with a karmic test, and if we have forgotten the past, we condemn ourselves to repeat it. It's time for all New Agers to get involved and return to the passion and idealism we once knew. As New Agers, we share a general awareness opposed to common dogma. We are a loose network of like-minded people opposed to organizations of zealots. Because that is what is, New Agers are best at infilitrating society and the radical New Christian Right (NCR) is best at organized political manipulation. The NCR represents an agenda based upon the narrow theology of televangelists Jerry Falwell, Jimmy Swaggart, Pat Robertson, Jim Bakker, James Robison, Tim LaHaye and other of their ilk. They have taken control of the Republican party and are establishing themselves in positions of power all over the country. One of the NCR's primary goals is to pass laws eliminating the New Age in general and metaphysical and holistic practices in particular. And guess what? In many areas, they are already doing just that. Bills are being introduced and passed to severly limit or block New Age activities. Plus the NCR spends millions to target politicians who don't vote "their" way. They censor books in schoolrooms and dictate what magazines convenience stores can sell. They are working to destroy the Bill of Rights and open the door to individual state discrimination and censorship without fear of Federal Court intervention. Since the New Age is one of the NCR's primary targets, Dick Sutphen believes the New Age must do its part to halt the national slide into "Fundamentalist Fascism." New Age Activists is a spiritual action group of Reincarnationists, Inc., a nonprofit educational organization structured to promote peaceful planetary transformation by SHARING awareness of metaphysical principles, ALERTING others of the efforts to block our dreams, and NETWORKING New Agers for support programs. Regardless of your spiritual loyalties if you respond to our cause, please call or write for a free copy of our 40-page newspaper, "What Is." It will tell you much more. We need to establish a large national network of New Agers who will participate with us in our support programs, but we have nothing to join. REINCARNATIONIST, INC.

The broom itself functions as a symbol of the sacred marriage of the God and Goddess, a rite that has been symbolically re-enacted each spring by followers of earth religions for thousands of years. The pole portion represents the phallus of the God, and the bristles symbolize the mound of Venus that guards the opening to the Goddesses reproductive organs. When both parts are united in a completed broom they form a potent magical symbol of wholeness and creative potential. This sexual imagery makes the broom the perfect choice for a magical tool to use in fertility rites of all sorts. It is also used at the conclusion of many Pagan marriages (called Handfastings) as the couple "jumps the broom" after exchanging their final vows. In the distant past women would ride their brooms hobbyhorse style over newly tilled fields to encourage growth, and through barns and pasture lands to encourage the reproduction of animals. Because brooms represent the totality of the deity-both male and female aspects- they have been used as talismans of protection. They have been placed under beds, across entryways and windows, at the entrances to sacred space, and they have stood guard at hearth sides. The sweeping action of the broom itself, its ability to cleanse any area through which it is taken and to take whatever debris it collects to someplace else, is so obvious that the magical potency of this simple action is to often overlooked. An article written by Edain McCoy, tells us about a well-to-do Irish lass named Alice who owned a magic broom that got her into big trouble. A seventeenth century Irish widow named Dame Alice Kyteler knew the secret of the broom, and was apparently adept at using it to good effect until she was caught in the act and condemned to death for practicing Witchcraft. Alice loved her children and was willing to use magic to help them succeed. She would take her broom out into the streets of her native Kilkenny late at night and begin a methodical sweeping action that was aimed toward her home. While doing this she would chant a magical rhyme in which she bid all the wealth in town to come to her eldest son William who lived with her. No one knows just how long the very prosperous Alice had been working at this spell when she was discovered by a neighbour and reported as a Witch, but we do know that she was able to escape her persecutors and flee to England with most of her considerable wealth in tact. At the holiday season our homes get bogged down with stress and negative energy. A good way to cleanse your home of negativity is to grab your broom and starting at your front door move in a clock wise motion through your home sweeping out all negativity. Be sure to get under beds and all closets and corners. While you sweep you can chant something like this or use your own words: "Sweep, Sweep, With this broom. All bad out of this room. Sweep, Sweep, All good in. The bad to never return again." Be sure your magickal broom never actually touches the floor. Keep in mind that this is a spiritual cleaning and should be done after your regular cleaning for maximum effect.
