The Element of Magick

Lemon Salt Scrub:

Since one of the correspondences for Earth is salt I thought this would be a fun
and easy recipe to do.
Items you will need:
5 tablespoons sea salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 lemon
First mix the olive oil and sea salt together. Once the salt gets coated by the
oil, the lemon won t dissolve it! Next cut the lemon in half and squeeze over the
salt + oil. Mix and mash. (Feel free to adjust the recipe to your liking.) Now s

Stop the Gossip Spell
Spell Date: Tuesday, November 27, 2012
Color of the day: Gray
Incense of the day: Bay laurel
If you're a victim of gossip or rumor, this spell will help remove the power of
the rumor, and destroy it. You'll need some gray stationery, a gray envelope, an
d a gray candle.
The color gray is used in this spell to neutralize any negativity, without creat
ing bad karma for you. Light the candle first. Then write a description of the g
ossip on the stationery, and declare that you wish to stop it without hurting an
yone. Even if you know who started the rumor, don't mention them. Then fold the
stationery and seal it in the envelope. Ignite the envelope in the candle flame,
and let everything burn in a heat-proof container. As it burns, say:
"Talk is cheap, talk is trash,
Lies and rumors be turned to ash!"
When the ashes cool, scatter them outside after dark. The gossip will end withou
t harming you or anyone else.

Then think about your wish as you burn the paper in the candle. Repeat this ritu
al at the same time on 12 consecutive nights. If you miss a night begin spell fr

Spell to Dream of the Future
Dream divination is the power to see the future and enhance clairvoyance through
dreaming. To foresee an event in the future through a dream, try this powerful
dream ritual.
Decide what subject your prophetic/psychic dream will be about:

Does it involve you, or someone else?

What is the subject you need information on? (Money, love, etc.)
How far or near in the future do you wish to see?
Do you have a specific question to ask, or just a general topic?
How do you want the question answered- by a guide, symbols, emotions, etc.?
Once you are sure you know what exactly the prophetic dream should be able, you
can gather your items and prepare your working. Lay out a square of pale blue cl
oth. In the middle, places a mixture of ash leaves, bay leaves, cinquefoil, heli
otrope, holly, jasmine flowers, marigold flowers, mimosa, mugwort, onion, and/or
yarrow (however many you can find). Bring the corners towards the middle and ti
e it all together like a small bag with a string, ribbon, or piece of yarn.
Bay Leaf Wish Spell
Items needed:
One bay leaf
A pen or preferably a marker
A small box
Write a wish...(what you are wishing for) on the bay leaf. Then put it in the bo
x and leave it there.
When your wish comes true, take the bay leaf out, burn it and thank all the high
er spirits who helped make your wish a reality.
A Spell for Peaceful Sleep
These are hung by your bed to encourage a restful sleep and sweet dreams.
10 Cardamon pods
1 tsp salt
15 cloves
1/2oz peppermint
1/2 oz rosemary
dried peel of 1 lemon
Light a white and pink candle, place them on your work area (kitchen table, coun
ter top) Crush the cloves, cardamon and salt to a fine powder. Blend with the he
rbs and put in bags.
As you are making the bags concentrate on peaceful memories and beautiful though
ts.
When you hang the bags by your bed say out loud:
Sleep be with me
Peaceful sleep
Restful sleep
Let my mind be eased
Let my body be calmed
Wings of darkness
Let the sight of night and dream
be clear, be quiet
Let my troubles drift away
and let me dream...
Nightmare Spell
Items required:
scarf (white or cream colors work best)
4 cloves
pinch of basil
pinch of ground sage
lavender or vanilla oil (whatever you find more soothing)
black marker
white ribbon

Lay the scarf out. You will be putting spices into it. Place the spices (ground
sage, 4 cloves, basil) into the scarf and add 2 drops of oil. Gather the scarf a
t the top (like a moneybag) and tie it with the ribbon. On the outside of the sc
arf draw the nightmare that plagues you (e.g. spiders, falling).
Place the scarf under your pillow and sleep with it there.
A Powerful Wish Spell
This is a little complicated to describe but is well worth it.
You need a piece of recycled paper (recycled notebook paper works fine). On the
paper, write a short poem or chant to the Goddess and God that states your wish.
It is alright if you aren't the best poet on earth! But it is very important th
at you say exactly how you feel and what exactly you need. Do your best and say
it from the heart. Close the poem with thanks to the Goddess and God.
Fold it in half with the words inside it.
Draw a triple goddess sign on the outside.
Now fold it in half again with the symbol on the inside. Now draw a pentacle on
the paper:
Finally, flip it over and write your name and birthdate on the other side. Put t
his aside in a safe place and your wish will come true in due time. If you chang
e your mind before it comes true, burn the paper and put the ashes to the earth.
Dream Protection Spell
This is something I wrote when someone put a spell on me to use my own thoughts
against me. This spell reversed that one! (author)
Tools:
1 tablespoon of lemon juice (or another fruit juice)
1 tablespoon of sea salt
1 teaspoon of vegetable oil
1 light weight cauldron (a glass bowl works too)
1 piece of paper
1 black pen
2 black or red candles (1 of each works best)
Mix the lemon juice, sea salt, and oil into your cauldron. Place the cauldron in
front of you on the floor. Sit comfortably and place the candles beside the cau
ldron (red on left, black on right.) Rip the piece of paper in half then set it
aside.
Light both candles, left one first. Now close your eyes and visualize a sphere.
In the middle of the sphere, visualize yourself stuck inside, trying to get out.
See the black and red candles burning around you. Watch as the candles spin aro
und you, getting faster each time they pass. Then see yourself magically being r
eleased. On one piece of paper, draw a picture of what you saw. On the other, wr
ite down your biggest fear. Light both pieces of paper on fire, using the black
for the written half, red for the drawing. Then throw them into your cauldron.
Take the cauldron outside and pour it (paper and all) into a hole in the ground
. Cover the hole with dirt. The spell is done.
The Witches' Ladder
Take a new piece of string, cord or twine and tie nine knots into it, with each
knot whisper the line of the chant, and blow onto the knot, giving it life, focu
sing on your wish, and thus charging the string .

You should now carry the knotted cord, on your person, for at least a few days,
then untie each knot, one at a time, while again concentrating on your wish, slo
wly releasing your spell. Most witches also tie in object links, to their ladder
s, strengthening their bond, these will depend on the type of spells being worke

____________________
Seeing Auras
First of all, what exactly is an aura? It's an electromagnetic field that surrou
nds all living things. They can be seen as well as felt, or sensed. Auras can re
veal a persons emotional well being as well as physical state.
There's no one method to seeing auras, the method given below is my persona
l way.
First there's the background. Some sources say that when reading an aura it
's best to have a very dark black or red background, other's say to a white one.
I've tried both and found that for me darker is much easier. Next, the aura is
generally strongest around a person's head, but it you don't have another person
to try this with, your own had will work fine. Pick a point just beyond your ha
nd and let your eye unfocused (it's very similar to the way you view a 'magic ey
e' picture for those of you who know what that is). Eventually a thin white band
will come into view. This is the first layer of the aura. Once you're able to v
iew the white band, fix your gaze a little ways beyond it. Eventually a colored(
s) band will come into view. Note, this stage is much harder to see, after a ton
of practice I still can't see it every time. Each color has a meaning which is
posted below.
RED: Energy, strength, courage
BRICK RED: Anger
DEEP RED: Sensuality
CRIMSON: Loyalty
PINK: Cheerfulness ,optimism
ROSE: Self love
ORANGE: Joy, vitality, balance of mental & physical
YELLOW: Wisdom, creativity, spiritual
GRAYISH YELLOW: Fear
GREEN: Ingenuity, compassion ,growth
PALE GREEN: Healing power
GRAYISH GREEN: Pessimism, envy
BLUE: Spiritual, idealistic, imaginative, intellectual
GRAYISH BLUE: Melancholy
ICE BLUE: Intellectual
PURPLE: Spiritual power
ORCHID: Idealism
WHITE: Highly spiritual(rarely seen)
BLACK: Depression, death(rarely seen)
BROWN: Earthy
DULL BROWN: Low energy
GRAY: Fear, boredom, repressed anger
GOLD: Pure knowing & intuition
SILVER: Similar to gold, very developed psychically
Third Eye Rite
Perform this neo-Pagan ritual to improve psychic powers three days before the mo
on is full, and preferably when it is in either the astrological sign of Cancer,
Pisces or Scorpio.

Begin by brewing a strong magical tea made from yarrow or mugwort (herbs that st
imulate the psychic senses) and then light thirteen purple colored votive candle
s to help attract psychic influences.
Drink the tea and then gaze fixedly into a magic mirror, crystal ball, or crysta
l pyramid as you chant thrice the following incantation:
I invoke thee, O Asariel
Archangel of Neptune
And ruler of clairvoyant powers.
I ask thee now to open my third eye
And show me the hidden light
Let me see the future.
Let me see the past.
Let me perceive the divine
Kingdoms of the unknown.
Let me understand the wisdom
Of the mighty universe.
So mote it be!
After chanting, relax, breathe slowly and concentrate on opening your Third Eye.
Do not permit any negative thought to contaminate your mind.
The Third Eye, an invisible chakra located in the middle of the forehead above t
he space between the eyebrows, is the human body s highest source of power, supern
ormal sight and clairvoyant vision.
To Strengthen Your Psychic Shield
The night before the Full Moon, find a place where your altar will not be distur
bed for 24 hours. Put the cauldron in the center with a red candle on the right
side, black candle of the left side, and white candle in the back; but do not li
ght them yet. Sprinkle a mixture of equal parts of elder blossoms, marjoram, min
t and rue in an unbroken circle around the cauldron. Into a tiny vial, measure e
qual drops of clove, frankincense, jasmine, and lavender. Set the sealed bottle
in the cauldron and leave until the night of the Full Moon. On Full Moon night,
take a cleansing bathe and robe yourself in white. Carry a good protective or p
urification incense through every room in the house. Make certain that the smoke
drifts into closets. Return to the altar and light the candles. Take up the dag
ger or sword. Face the East and raise the sword in salute. To salute in this ma
nner, simply hold the sword point upward in front of you. Say:
By the power of the rising sun, all evil in my life is done.
Turn to the South, salute, say:
By the power of darkening night, my shield is strong, my armor tight.
Turn to the North, salute, say:
By Full Moon in blackening sky, I am not alone. My help is nigh.
The Goddess's hands around me stay, To keep me safe by night and day.
Begone, foul spirits, unbidden here. I send you back, I do not fear.
For I have won. I am set free. You have no further power o'er me.
Face the altar and take up the vial of oil. Put a drop of oil on your finger and
anoint your forehead, heart, solarplexes, wrists and ankles. As you do this, vi
sualize a shining blue suit of armor slowly descending over your body until you
are entirely protected. Cap the bottle and store in a safe place. Thank the Powe
rs for their help and extinguish the candles. Apply the oil and repeat the chant
s whenever you feel the armor is slipping

Cloud Eye Rite

This is a version of a rite by an unknown author which involves transfering one'
s 'essence' to another form, such as a rainbow, an animal, another person, a clo
ud, even a tree. In this case, you move your perception to a cloud.
You will need:
An open space
Dry ice
Passivity
Open by whatever means feels appropriate. (You might just cast a circle.)
Set the dry ice in the center of the working area.
Participants circle deosil around the ice, chanting "Ka-ao-opua-loa" (the sharppointed living cloud). In the Hawaiian legends, this was the name of the kupua o
f the cloud people.
Circling and chanting continue for 10-15 minutes, at the end of which all sit do
wn in a circle as close to the ice as possible.
All stare into the fog rising from the ice until tunnel vision sets in (the fiel
d of vision goes black except for the object focused upon).
At the moment that tunnel vision occurs, say:
As below, so above
The cloud is in my eye
Ka-ao-opua-loa carry my sight
Participants begin spinning at increasing speed with eyes closed, all the while
repeating:
Tenfemet-Douck
When spinning is no longer possible, partcipants lie on their backs and open the
eyes completely (no squinting) and focus on the first cloud they see.
All repeat:
As above, so below
My eye is in the cloud
Phenomenize the cloud-eye
Visualize a fog exactly like that rising from the dry ice leaving the eyes and r
ushing up to join with the clouds. Observe it entirely passively, and with the i
nner voice repeat:
This self is Tenfemet-Douck,
The cloud that sees.
When tunnel vision again sets in, close the eyes and open them again quickly. Lo
ok down over the terrain that passes below your cloud-eye. Note details if desir
ed, but do not attempt to influence direction or speed of motion. All control of
these should be left to the wind.
When you have achieved your desired results, switch out of the passive mode and
attempt to influence direction or speed. Find yourself back in your human body l
ooking up at the clouds.
Banish by laughter, and leave the circle.
Psychic Sight Spell
A spell to open the third eye (psychic sight) goes as follows.
Fill a small purple bag (or a piece of cloth that you can wrap herbs in and tie
up) with as many of the following herbs as you can:
mugwort
acacia

honeysuckle
peppermint
rosemary
thyme
yarrow
cloves
dandelion
lilac
lavendar
calendula
Gather the edges of the cloth and tie a string around it if you are using a clot
h, or if you used a small purple bag, tie it shut. (Drawstring bags work best.)
Using a dark violet marker, draw an eye on the front of the bag. Rub the bag on
the third eye chakra (forehead) whenever performing divination or needing psychi
c sight, and sleep with it under your pillow every night.
To Rid Yourself of Insomnia
*Create a small little sack of dried lavender
*Place the sack on your pillow as you are laying down to sleep
*Say over the sack before you lay down:
"Sleep come here
sleep come quick
sleep be heavy
sleep please stick
sleep energize me with all your might
and awaken me at morning light."
Lay down and continue to inhale the lavender.
Think sleepy thoughts until you drift off for the night.
