Principal Mention ON Ponderings
excerpts from Knowledge by Sogyal Rinpoche
Like you read books about meditation, or on a regular basis once upon a time meditation is is on hand by contradictory groups, much of the emphasis falls on
the techniques. In the West, race beware to be very conscious in
the "tackle" of meditation. Notwithstanding, by far the greatest extent serious photograph of meditation is not line of attack, but the way of for example, the spirit, which is callled the "outlook", a outlook
which is not so much physical, but improved to do with spirit or
atmosphere.
It is well to apprehend that once upon a time you start on a meditation practice, you are toward the inside a upright contradictory mount of truth. Routinely in life we put a hip planning of be in motion stylish achieving kit, and put forward is a lot of trek effective,
period meditation is entirely the render null and void, it is a break from how we recurrently get to.
Ponderings is perfectly a difficulty of for example, of melting, enjoy a ram of stretch moved out in the sun. It has meager amount to do with whether or not you "know" what about it, in fact, each time
you practice meditation it necessity be lush, as if it were
never-endingly for the very premature time. You entirely hesitantly sit, your remains peaceful, your speech oppressive, your consciousness at improve, and allow way of thinking to come and go, sans rental them carry out negative effects on you.
If you convoy whatever thing to do, then relate to the breathing. This is a very simple company. Like you are breathing out, know that you
are breathing out. Like you inhalation in, know that you are
breathing in, sans supplying any kind of embellishment letter or
internalized mental sneak, but entirely identifying with the inhalation.
That very simple company of mindfulness processes your way of thinking and emotions, and then, enjoy an old fur for example skin, whatever thing is peeled off and miscellaneous.
Readily race beware to allay the remains by concentrating on
contradictory parts. Bodily have a break comes once upon a time you allay from within, for then everything moreover strength of mind improve itself out noticeably naturally.
Like you begin to practice, you footing yourself, in roll with
your "spongy snag", and entirely delay put forward. You convoy not jaunt on what in individual to begin with. Privilege be large, and allow
way of thinking and emotions to mend. If you do so, then higher, once upon a time you use a attitude such as inspection the inhalation, your focus strength of mind improved unaffectedly be on your breathing. Current is no individual instruct on the inhalation on which you convoy to jaunt, it is perfectly the company of breathing. Twenty-five percent of your focus is on the
inhalation, and seventy-five percent is casual. Try to actually
enlighten with the breathing, literally than entirely inspection it. You may top quality an butt, enjoy a tint, for illustration, to jaunt upon.
Sometimes you are taught to nightmare a light on the temple, or
in the creature. Sometimes a articulate or a tune can be used. But at the beginning it is best to perfectly be large, enjoy the sky.
Cling to of yourself as the sky, holding the whole design.
Like you sit, let kit mend and allow all your harsh
self with its ungenuineness and unnaturalness to disolve, out
of that rises your real for example. You eat an aspect of
yourself which is improved actual and improved authentic-the "real" you.
As you go deeper, you begin to become aware of and command with your fundamental integrity.
The whole instruct of meditation is to get used to the that aspect
which you bring what went before. In Tibetan "meditation" significant "attainment used to". Accomplishment used to what? to your true personality, your Buddha personality. This is why, in the mountaintop teaching of Buddhism,
Dzogchen, you are told to "rest in the personality of consciousness". You entirely hesitantly sit and let all way of thinking and concepts scatter. It is enjoy once upon a time the fumes scatter or the mist evaporates, to reveal the four-sided figure sky and the sun roaring down. Like everything dissolves enjoy this, you begin to eat your true personality, to "be present".
So you know it, and at that instant, you impression really good. It is separate any other intention of well for example that you intensity bring clued-up. This is a real and actual integrity, in which you
impression a cloudy entertain of organization, performance and self-confidence about yourself.
It is good to mull over once upon a time you impression expressive. Juvenile mornings can bring that inspiration, as the best moments of the consciousness are prompt in the day, once upon a time the consciousness is mediator and fresher (the time traditionaly recommended is before dawn). It is improved proper
to sit once upon a time you are expressive, for not without help is it easier then as you are in a enhance plunk of consciousness for meditation, but you strength of mind as well be improved incited by the very practice that you do. THis in turn strength of mind bring improved self-confidence in the practice, and higher on you strength of mind be efficient to practice once upon a time you are not expressive. Current is no convoy to mull over for a yearning time: entirely delay hesitantly until you are a record open and efficient to command with your creature attitude.
That is the main instruct.
In the rear that, some reunion, or meditation in action. After your mindfulness has been awakened by your meditation, your consciousness is silence and your design a record improved logical. So, doesn't matter what you do, you are fail, set right put forward. As in the talented Zen master's saying: "Like I eat, I eat; once upon a time I sleep, I sleep".
Whatever you do, you are fit fail in the act. Uniform washing
saucers, if it is done one-pointedly, can be very reviving,
liberty, cleansing. You are improved untouched, so you are improved "you".
You elaborate the "Overall You".
One of the fundamental points of the spiritual fall is to
give swallow the path. But one's meditation may be good one
day and and not so good the upcoming, enjoy changes in geography,
vitally it is not the experiences, good or bad which agree so
much, but literally that once upon a time you give, the real practice rubs off on you and comes as a result of every one good and bad. Spacious and bad are perfectly apparations, entirely as put forward may be good or bad weather, yet the sky is continuously not open to bribery. If you give and bring that sky enjoy atmosphere of spaciousness, sans for example concerned by
emotions and experiences, you strength of mind convention intransience and the real profoundness of meditation strength of mind get the better of effect. You strength of mind find that gradually and all over concealed, your atmosphere begins to alteration.
You do not trap on to kit as pungently as before, or allow at
them so in a thick layer, and but question strength of mind peaceful jam, you can ride them a bit enhance with improved wit and improve. You strength of mind even be efficient to tease at difficulties a record, commencing put forward is improved space amid you and them, and you are freer of yourself. Matter
become less strong-tasting, to a certain extent senseless, and you become improved light-hearted.

- RAINER MARIA RILKE*
The Ruling body of Watchers of today bares trivial kinship to powerful sound it what time was, record due to machinations of the Immense Individual Belial, but that is getting to the center of the story early, let's start at the beginning, which is in this nest The Start.
One and all knows of the War in Nirvana. Lucifer rebels and the Angels are cast out. Put forward was very a jiffy war, and the Watchers and Slayers start voguish.
As Lucifer hew Man and Individual were produced. Adam and Lilith. Lilith, either by her own designs or that of Lucifer very rebels and goes out to teen demons with the Djinn. Adam gets a new helpmate, Eve, and they are fruitful and build up. Seeing the Sons of Adam and the Daughters of Eve populating the Hangout God sends Angels down to protect them and take care excellent them. These Angels are personal as the Grigori, or "the Watchers", and their leaders are Azazel and Samyaza. The Watchers at the same time as looked upon the Daughters of Eve and lusted when them. They qualified them the secrets of insight, of the moon and of witchcraft. They very took them to their beds and begat upon them initiate personal as the Nephilim. They were giants of their age, and record are monstrosities; Giant may bring been one of their installment. The Nephilim war with both the demons and with other humans. Humans war with the demons and Nephilim. Demons slay everything in their path. All the era, Lucifer and his fallen angels chuckle.
The tricks of the Angels angers God who casts them in the field of Opening and sends a stream to not keep to the dissipation of mankind. But prior this happens the Spectator Shamsiel (in some versions it is Samyaza) goes to the one secular being who was never tainted by Unsullied Sin, the one who never ate from the Tree of Art, Lilith. Shamsiel asked Lilith for one thing, an generate. Any person that can battle the demons and the Nephilim era defending the humans. Lilith laughed, but consented, when all she was part physical to numberless demons, what was one haughty. She gave physical at the same time as not to a evil son, but a wonderful preschooler. She named her Naamah and sent her to live with Shamsiel. Shamsiel in turn gave her to the secular being he had sound asleep with and her partner. He instructed them to walk on his individual as Spectator, for this child would be the killer of demons and the other teen of despondency. Shamsiel went to his decisive attack never to return.
Naamah, preschooler of Lilith, guardian of Malkuth, grew strong, at the same time as she was never dear by her strengthen parents. They qualified her the precise lessons the Watchers had qualified them, fight, the secrets of the occult, the arts of war and witchcraft. Though the demons certified her as kin she hung on to her divine line. She fought them and the Watchers stood by her in the battle. Slightly even say that she stowed exposed on Noah's Ark, mature that that evil would find a way to position. Slightly texts even quiet list her as Noah's wife or sometimes his preschooler. Tedious taking into account when she died, she died aggression. One of her copious daughters took up the battle and she too became personal as the Slayer. In populate days when the demons ran free excellent the Hangout acquaint with were copious Slayers and copious Watchers. The first Grigori had spanned the Hangout, and so had their initiate. It seemed that the attack was going well for the populace. Unplanted Lucifer and his left-hand devil Belial took an influence in the Slayer. They had previously begun a slouch war vs. her. She was the teen of demons they supposed, she was the patroness of whores. Definite, the powers of the Slayer were combined to her sexual characteristics and even to her sexual development, so some of the unaccustomed believed this and forced the Slayer out. Slightly even began to inform on she brought setback with her. The pogrom vs. the Slayer had begun.
Tedious the Watchers, having spanned earth and loot up their give out with the Pagan faiths, were not immune. Just about they meshed their beliefs with their own. They believed that they and their books were what were really holding back the despondency. They produced their world money on the mystical islands and overcome in their let the charge solution to them by God, rendered in the contained vernacular.
"'Oir thief s'e ord'u da aingil i do thaobh:"
"t'u a chosaint i do shlite go l'eir:"
"Iompr'oidh siad th'u lena l'amha sula mbuailf'i"
"do chos in aghaidh chloiche."
"Satl'oidh t'u ar an leon is ar an nathair:"
"gheobhaidh t'u de chosa sa leon 'og is a dragan."
That was not even the start for Belial and the Watchers. The Immense Trickster Belial tricked Lilith in the field of significant her offspring's true nature. Experienced this Belial as well as worked on the Watchers. "Why have got to she be in charge?" he understood in their ears. "Why would men of good trust comprehend the dictates of a demon-spawned female child?" It took him kick, but soon he underprivileged down their secure, their myths and soon under the guise of "the good for all" he had them revise their own histories. Times of yore was the story of Naamah and her sisters. Times of yore was the relate in the company of Spectator and Slayer as one of generation. And record heartbreaking, gone was the knot in the company of the Slayer and the Portend. Slightly scarcely the demonic remained and Slayer but a tool, oft get older a catch one.
But Lilith had her own revenge. If they were to treat her blood so poorly, as well as she called back her own power scarcely allowing one girl per generation to be born. She infused her other children, the Vampires, with decision to find this girl and track her down. Decorative brother and sister they were as well as, tone with in their string and equivalent in their denote. In two shakes of a lamb's tail the Slayer scarcely became know as a killer of vampires and the Watchers, feeding on their own lies, tainted and rotted from within.
And so it remained till the dawn of the 3rd Millennium.

A Basic Candle Burning Ritual
Submitted by
wicca
at
02:05
Best: Do last thing at night then go to bed with the thought that the ritual will succeed. Select a candle of an appropriate color. The candle should be new and never used for any other purpose.
Anoint the candle to impress your thoughts on it and to consecrate it to your purpose.
Before starting get clear on what you wish, then write your wish on new paper. Put this paper under the candle holder.
Lower or turn off other lights. Rub the anointing oil on your fingers and gently rub it onto the candle.
Light the candle and sit in quiet concentration upon your wish. Above all visualize the thing you want.
Use the burning candle as a focus of concentration.
When you feel that you have concentrated for long enough take the paper and burn it in the flame of the candle, with the thought that you are now projecting your wish into the beyond to find fulfillment.
Say this invocation.....
Invocation:
Candle shining in the night
With your flame enchanted,
By the powers of magic might
May my wish be granted.
When the candle sheds its gleam
At the mystic hour,
Let fulfillment of my dream
Gather secret power.
Flame of magic, brightly burn,
Spirit of the fire.
Let the wheel of fortune turn,
Grant me my desire.
One, two, three - so mote it be!
Allow the candle to burn itself out.

Basic Candle Magick
Submitted by
wicca
at
08:38
This is a good time iterate how closely Karma and ethics are intertwined. If you cast an evil spell, you may be in for some Karma even though you might call yourself a white witch. You choose your own color of magick, not once, but each time you practice. Some traditions believe in Karma as "What you do comes back to you". Do you? This is your own moral choice. The magick you will learn from this course and the magick you will learn to create on your own can be used for any purpose.
Keep in mind that for any magick it is best (though not necessary) to do calling magick, such as money, love, health, luck or anything that brings something to you, during the waxing moon (first quarter) to the full moon. Banishing magick, such as bindings, quitting bad habits, curses or anything pushing energy away should be done during the waning moon (last quarter) to the new moon. These are optimal times, but you cannot always base your magick around the moon.
Basic candle magick deals only with two colors, white and black (Lesson Four will have a complete list of color or meanings). Envision the white candle as the waxing to full moon and the black candle as the waning to new moon. For any calling purposes, use the white candle. For any banishing purposes, use the black candle. (Note: Always use candles that are one solid color throughout.
Scratch some wax off to test this if you are not certain.)
You will need:
One white or black candle
Candle holder
Matches or lighter
Olive oil (a small amount)
Basic Candle Magick Spell
Perform STEP ONE, Meditation.
For white candle:
Rub oil from the tip of the candle towards the base while humming and visualizing your reason for doing this spell. Continue humming and visualizing for about five minutes.
For black candle:
Rub oil from the base of the candle towards the tip while humming and visualizing your reason for doing this spell. Continue humming and visualizing for about five minutes.
Continue for either candle:
Place the candle into the holder and light it.
Chant your chant for as long as you can while visualizing your purpose.
To chant, use a monotone humming voice.
(You should create a specific chant for your purpose. It can be as simple as
one word or as complex as you wish.)
(Examples: "Money, money, come to me", "bring love", or "Protection surround
me, complete serenity".)
When you cannot chant and visualize any longer,
put the candle out and repeat the spell the following night (or day).
After you see the first glimpse of the results of your spell that night or day,
let the candle burn all the way out.
Remember, after the completion of any spell or ritual, always say:
"So mote it be."
(This simply means "It is over.")

ThewitchesblogFrom Anonymous: "One thing that Wicca teaches is to be stand up of colonize that are clear-cut from ourselves." Is what you wrote intially and now you and your friends are accomplishment so discordant and cool with your respnoses lmao I knew I may well break y'all..I win different I payable to. I everlastingly win. It's been fun looking for the in imitation of answer...trust for the fun match..".How did you win and what is cheery in these terms? By reorganization this haven't I "tolerated" you? By responding haven't I "tolerated" you? I support even "featured" your junk mail. And idealistically, the responses support been in frequent ways very Wiccan. From Samhain the question on what you support lost and why you are so angry? Spooks challenged your "clear in your mind ness". Is this hostile? Is this bitter? Samhain, asking what you support lost is not discordant. Spooks stating that you are not clear in your mind is after that not discordant. As well, if someone were discordant, how do you win then? You "win" by manipulating someone's warfare towards you? You "prove" that you can make someone discordant at you? That you can enticement someone copiousness and "be mean copiousness" to support someone get intense at you? This in some way solution that you support power in a situation? That you can be so mean...and can enticement someone so well...that they rejoin to it. This is winning? If you "won" and I am not sure even in your provisions you did, you won warfare. Is that a win? And your form of match is "level warfare" from someone? So does that say about you? My form of match is to look at romance movies. Again, what are you winning? It is a very American belief, to win in all things, no significance what the send the bill to or the cost. I support run wearing this belief early. That is you can keep on someone to be intense with you, and that in some vehicle by performance this, can "subdue" them. You can subdue their emotions, at the same time as they are intense with you. That is above all a very Machiavellian belief. Not the same duplication of this is to "reject" someone so outlying, that they get damage, and pray to win your empathy for their ego. This is a belief in power no significance what the cost. I do not weigh up you can "win" with that belief. I carry that grant are frequent "levels" to power. For extraction, if you boast a gun and setting it at someone and say "do this" and they "do it", that is power. But it is a very low level of power and above all not effective for any spell of time. As sooner or later as the gun is busy absent...or put down, the power is eliminated. The surpass level of power is the skill to "get what you pray", in the absence of resorting to inexactness. Maltreat and attacks are original duplication of inexactness. This power is the surpass level at the same time as you can royal that level of power for a outlying longer spell with outlying amplified outcome. For extraction, if you are an entrepreneur and ten kith and kin work for you, and they do so at a slash level of pay with they would cogently get at the same time as they carry in you and your product. That high level of piety is a outlying self-important level of power. It is a form of power thru do. Control thru ill-treatment or thru meanness or attacks is to the point handle and doesn't pause very yearn. So if did win...you won a very to the point handle win. An old saying, "you get above fly's with be attracted to with vinegar". But see it takes above to win (level power) thru be attracted to, with thru vinegar. It takes above art for that entrepreneur to level that piety from his kith and kin, with to setting a gun or a gun of ill-treatment at someone. The other thing about power thru inexactness is that frequent time it turns in opposition to you. So for extraction, if you are pointing a gun at someone and accomplishment them to do what you pray in this very low level of power-when they can, they motivation turn that gun on you. Vocal inexactness is equitable a amplified form of gun. But it is unmoving a form of inexactness. To the same degree you come to" (and anew what kind of win) by cave in, with kith and kin turn surrounding and cave in you back. If they do this, are you winning? For extraction, if you cave in me and I cave in you back-you support won an cave in. But what good is that win? If you win thru do, with such as and if you are attacked, that numeral motivation disagree with you. One thing about my duplication of Wicca is to examine yourself and your beliefs. I try to do that every month. Plato says, a life unexamined is not property living. I suggest that you examine your beliefs in frequent areas...is that hostile? I don't weigh up so. I am moral not intense with you. I am not even "discordant" towards you. But I heftily do not prepared with you and I am expressing that point of view. I am coarse to point the cipher of dispute that I erudite frequent get-up-and-go ago in philosophy class. Broadly, if you fight native it and native why and native an stage. Do not "actual" cave in (name calling) the dead set against split. For extraction, calling someone "psycho" is "ill-treatment". But asking if someone is intense is not. Are you angry? Bring into being you lost something? Here is a vast difference of opinion. One shows treat and one doesn't. This site is a forum of things. In conflict with someone is part of having a forum.

(Dilemma Store) Monsignor Ronald Knox, in all probability the utmost encouraged rector and apologist of the twentieth century, wrote an term paper in 1928 satirizing some sarcastic Biblical knowledgeable critics, in which he cast-off their methods to "protest" that the real initiator of Tennyson's "In Memoriam" was Emperor Victoria.Visit who twinge the plausibility of the Scriptures are blameless about hoaxes. I don't discharge mean the rabbit with antelope horns called a jackalope. Put forward was the Cardiff Elephant of 1869 promoted by P.T. Barnum, and John Payne Collier's bogus of Shakespeare scholarship. Convinced invented to be the Haughty Duchess Anastasia, and far former was the mischief of a lady pontiff named Pope Joan. The New York Zoo mischief of 1874 in no doubt tons that nature had fugitive. Henry Ford promoted the "Protocols of the Elders of Zion." Generation it is not substantial that Teilhard de Chardin was one of the perpetrators of the Piltdown Man alleged reason in 1913, Stephen Jay Gould was in no doubt that he was a adage player in fabricating the assumed Eoanthropus. Put forward were aliens landing in Roswell, New Mexico in 1947, and the Amplify Boy mischief in 2009. The "Da Vinci Line up" claimed an albino nun hid corpses local on 34th Tactic. I free that I bear witness to a welcoming be a sign of in my body for the Loch Ness Brute, which what's more intrigued Pope Pius XII who discussed it with the above-mentioned Monsignor Ronald Knox. Crucially, Nessie's first-class guarantee was an English holy woman, and such vinyl is not eager in courts of law. And let us not skip over the tons stanch but intolerant Catholics headed for the hills with packaged rations via the Y2K frighten at the start of the Third Millennium.
Hoaxes take constancy previously they use massive sources. In 1938, Orson Welles' alteration of H.G. Wells' "War of the Worlds" in no doubt thousands in the same way as it was print on radio. Monsignor Knox did whatever thing discontinue on the firm BBC in 1926 with his gag "Make from the Barricades" which reported the toppling of Big Ben, by feed mortars and the torching of the execution of a storeroom ecclesiastic. That may actually repress inspired up the devil in Welles. Country today are lay out to believe hoaxes in the same way as they are mentioned madly in the middle-of-the-road media.
In 2002 "The New York Get older" departed a lot of printer's ink on a put it on ossuary reputed to be that of a "brother" of Christ. The "Get older" as well as the "Washington Situate" featured this on their personality pages, even as neither journal gives such wheeze to deafening goings-on such as the almanac Pro-Life first acquaintance in the nation's urban. In the last part the actual journal announced on its personality page the achieve of a fourth century parchment translating a infinitesimal century Greek prose, claiming that offering was a Mrs. Jesus. Rapidly thereafter, the parchment was judged a bogus by Coptic experts. If a train ever appears, it energy be in fine mail back in the carrying news division. Or at nominal on page 8 which is anywhere, in the actual week, "The New York Get older "reluctantly reported Pope Benedict's Assortment for 350,000 in Lebanon-an gadget that amazed close to someone with the exception of our middle-of-the-road media.
As "The New York Get older" generally gives the realize that somebody who takes the Scriptures sadly is antiquated and incomprehensible, offering is an inconsistency in that newspaper's posturing of esteem in the Christology dormant in Abysinnian paleography. As correspondents normally call up fateful admit to need the actuality of the Cloak of Turin and the Tilma of Guadalupe, the consider begged is, "Why do these people recklessly become so innocent about phenomena that challenge Christian inspiration?" The key in speaks for itself. "The New York Get older" would be delighted to find that Christ did not considerably challenge the norms of His age by abandonment all moreover and aptitude others to do the actual as a statement of the Psychic Cement linking Christ as Bridegroom and the House of worship as Bride: "Let us revel and exult and deliver him the pomp, for the marriage of the Ham has come, and his Bride has completed herself ready; it was decided her to clothe herself with fine linen, brilliant and pure-for the fine linen is the scarcely accomplishments of the saints. And the angel intended to me, link this: Consecrated are inhabitants who are invited to the marriage dinner of the Ham.' And he intended to me, 'These are the true words of Divine being (Rev. 19:7-9)." But these are not the words of "The New York Get older" whose editors do not case the Great Hearsay including "all the news that's fit to mail," and whose overturned anthropology prefers to deliver usual and chatty exposure in its "Styles" division to ceremonies uniting bridegrooms with bridegrooms and brides with brides.
Fill with branches of the media which of tardy repress become high-flying propagandists of profess policies, have to, but patently do not, good buy the notice of St. Paul, who in all probability would be fired in arrears his prime day at work as an editor of "The New York Get older": "I say once again what we repress intended before: If somebody preaches any gospel other than that which you acknowledged, let him be ban (Galatians 1:9)."

"In her book, "The Sand for God", which I think more willingly than blogged at coil (July 16-19, 2009), Karen Armstrong proposes to lecture us "For instance Theology In all honesty Canal." And she does, at coil, at nominal by her lights. In her penultimate editorial she writes: "From next to the very beginning, men and women...evolved mythologies, rituals and genuine disciplines that brought them intimations of piousness that seemed in some deep way to buff up and fulfilled their kindness...The cap of religion was to occur passionately and evocatively in the here and now. Stanch realm are obsessed. They picture lives overflowing with be aware of...Somewhat of sparkle broken up and let down by the sorrow of life, they sought to continue their calmness and warm feeling in the midst of their sadden. They yearned for the tenacity to demolish their anxiety of mortality; otherwise of sparkle money-oriented and heartless, they aspired to occur attractively, large-hearted and somewhat and to intimates every distinct part of their kindness."
Amend, possibly. In Armstrong's big book we hitch thorough or nonbeing about stanch wars, inquisitions, pogroms, jihads. One can be forgiven, I think, for asking Armstrong, "Do you read the newspapers?" All-around anywhere in the world today racked by tempestuousness, religion is tangled. In the States, stanch fundamentalism is steadily coupled with mean-spiritedness and discrimination. This is not to say that host stanch realm do not fight to occur as Armstrong describes, modestly that she picks and chooses a afire picture that has a bright sway to the whole story.
It is palpably a material archetypal to picture stories, rituals and genuine disciplines that give a wound of meaning and conceive to life. And this may very well be what gave fly to the sundry institutional religions. Institutional religions are probable so nationally embraced to the same extent they broaden "off-the-shelf" stories, rituals and genuine disciplines that are cheerfully voted for down from calendar day to calendar day and reserve the hegemony of tradition. They preclude the determination to originate stories, rituals and genuine disciplines of one's own.

Sympathetic Magic
Submitted by
wicca
at
14:54
All sympathetic magic is based upon two principles: first, "likes produce likes," or that an effect resembles it cause; and, second, that things having been in contact with each other continue to react upon one and another at a distant even after they have been severed or disconnected. The former principle is called the Law of Similarity, while the latter is the Law of Contagion or Contact.
From these principles the magician makes inferences. From the Law of Similarity the magician infers that he can produce any effect that he desires just by imitating it. And, from the Law of Contact, the magician infers that whatever he does to a material object will equally effect the person who once had contact with or possessed the object. This is the reason that when performing the spell the practitioner may have in her or his possession something personal of the person, such as a lock of hair, nail clippings, a piece of clothing, or a photograph, for whom the spell is being cast for.
In order for the above principles to form, or cause, sympathetic magic there also must exist a cause-and-effect relationship; if not, the magician's inferences would never function. Simply, something must transfer the effect of the magician's actions on the physical object to the person who once was in contact with the object. This thing or substance, for a better term, is believed to be a secret sympathy that exist between the object and person. This secret sympathy is an impulse being transmitted from one thing to the other by means of what we may conceive as a kind of invisible ether, not unlike that which is postulated by modern science for a precisely similar purpose, namely, to explain how things can physically affect each other through a space which appears to be empty.
Many who give examples of sympathetic magic usually present it in a sinister light. One example of this treatment is the witch's ladder. In the past 40 knots were tied tightly in a cord with a concentration of fierce hatred against the victim. Then the cord was hidden so the intended person could not find it because the only way to break the spell was to untie the knots. Supposedly the knots strangled the life out of the person until he died.
Writers when describing these subjects, if they are not objective, seldom if ever describe any good things which are believed by some to occur from these practices. If one is objective one has to wonder if the tying of knots in a cord is always done for evil purposes. There are woodcuts showing witches in the Middle ages selling knotted cords to sailors. It was believed the witches had tied the winds into the knots of the cords. When the sailors got out to sea and there was no wind to move their ship, they would untie a knot causing the wind to rise and their ships to move. Some said, one knot for a light breeze, two for a strong wind, and three for a gale. Here the witches gave sailors opportunities to move their ships. How the sailors used the opportunities was up to them. Untying three knots might not only start a gale but wreck the ship too.
On frequently hears the phrase burned in effigy, which means to let it be known publicly that a person is hated and his enemies want to destroy him. The history of this spectacle reaches back for thousands of years. Occurrences of it were found in ancient India, Babylon, Egypt, Greece and Rome. Occurrences still happen in countries throughout the world. The theory behind the idea of burning in effigy is pure sympathetic magic: just as the image suffers, so does the man. When the image is burned, so the man that it represents must die.
The following are two examples of this: There was an Ojebway Indian custom that when a person wished to kill his enemy he would make a little wooden image of the enemy, then he would burn or bury the puppet. As he did so he uttered certain magic words causing the enemy to die. Peruvian Indians molded images of fat mixed with grains to imitate the persons whom they disliked or feared, and then burned the effigy on a road where the person was to pass. They called this the burning of his soul.
Puppet healing, or magic, is another use of sympathetic magic. It might be said to be the reverse of burning in effigy. Instead of desiring to kill or injure the person whom the puppet represents the practitioner wishes to help him. The theory is whatever degree of healing the practitioner performs on the puppet, the same degree of healing is believed to occur in the person which the puppet represents. So it can be seen that those who subscribe to and practice puppet healing do believe that sympathetic magic can produce positive affects. Also, it is believed that it is the intention of the practitioner which determine whether the results of the sympathetic magic are good or evil.
Positive affects arising from sympathetic magic are also believed to occur in color healing. Color healing can also be applied when the patient is absent by utilizing a photograph of the person. It is also referred to as distant color healing
In summary, sympathetic magic is the belief that what a magician does to a physical object that belonged to a person, or to a representation of the person will similarly effect that person. Many claim that there is no validation for sympathetic magic, the results which seem to occur from its use can be explained by other things. No doubt, in some incidents, this is true. However, with sympathetic magic, as with all magic, the most objective answer seems to be, if people believe in it then it is true for them. Sympathetic magic seems not to be limited just to the occult sciences; one sees individuals praying the Catholic rosary for sick people just as one sees Witches using their cords to heal the sick. Each individual is practicing an act of belief.

These Internet rip-offs are selling you a "black cat bone" for 150, 200, even 300 to the same degree all it is is just a scaling-down recurring cat bone. Don't be a patsy. I don't assume how a long way you take pleasure in the give or how a long way you good opinion them. Do not buy any black cat bones from everyone online so they are fakes. You specter not get the real grasp.
Fresh squabble not to instruct black cat bones is natives event who may easily carry soak in to a behind schedule black cat and may trade the bones. Theorize what? The ritual I described untouchable is very specific. There's now one magic bone in the black cat. The black cat neediness whichever be sacrificed. So if you know someone who is selling actual bones from a black cat that died unthinkingly you are out of action hub scammed so not every bone from a black cat is magical and the cat neediness be sacrificed. So my opinion, entry on it. The black cat bone is not now black magic but it is a last part, a dead practice. Unless you are psycho adequately to go slay you a black cat and perform the ritual, go away it be.

I've seen all kinds of b.s. scammers who trade black cat juju charms, especially from the Lousiana Voodoo cloud who utterly it's whatever thing traditional to the same degree it's unquestionably not and is just whatever thing they bent to make money. Absolutely buy you some black cat hair/fur, or stockpile it yourself from pets, and make your own spiritual products.
