A PRACTICAL GUIDE TO WITCHCRAFT AND MAGICK SPELLS

lk up a muddy track from a cramped, rough car park, had a tranquil, spiritual air that you might expect at a great cathedral or far more impressive stone circles. such spots unleash the magick inside us. but even if you never visit brittany or stonehenge at sunrise on midsummer's day, you can still make use of your own magick. this is a book about white magick and witchcraft as sources of wisdom, healing and positivity. like native american spirituality, to which true witchcraft is akin (some say both were carried by the people of atlantis, the practice of white magick is based on the belief that that all life is sacred and interconnected in an unbroken circle. for example, every fully grown birch tree- defined in magick as a tree of new beginnings and regeneration- breathes out enough oxy

witchcraft is essentially the process of drawing on ancient wisdom and powers via the collective mind that we as individuals can spontaneously but unconsciously access in our dreams and visions. in magick, we can use rituals and altered states of consciousness to access this cosmic memory bank at will and in doing so, some believe, draw on the accumulated powers of many generations, especially in healing magick. this cosmic consciousness- or great mind or akashic record, as theosophists call it- is perhaps what made it possible for pyramids to be built at almost the same time in lands as far apart as egypt and south america, and for shamanism to follow similar patterns in unconnected continents. by accessing this source of power, we may create a ritual or use certain crystals without consc

bility true magick is not like a cake in which everybody must vie for a slice or be left with none: it is more akin to a never-emptying pot. like the legendary cauldron of undry in celtic myth, the more goodness that is put in, the more the mixture increases in richness and quantity. the cauldron of undry, one of the four main celtic treasures, provided an endless supply of nourishment, had great healing powers and could restore the dead to life, in either their former existence or a new life form. located on the isle of arran, it could be accessed by magical means or through spiritual quests, and many scholars believe it was the inspiration for the holy grail. but when using magick, you should take only as much as you need and perhaps a little more; you should not demand riches, perfect l

of magic is just a trick, which relies merely on the art of illusion. white magick is much more than that. it is intensely exciting because it means that we can extend the boundaries of possibility, recalling the psychic powers of childhood when we could span dimensions as easily as jumping across a puddle. we can increase our personal magnetism to attract love and luck and regenerate the innate healing abilities both of the human body and the planet. what magick does not do is provide quick fixes with a twinkling of stardust. it does not produce a faerie godmother, who turns up with a shimmering frock and a platinum credit card to pay the taxi fare home if the handsome prince is short of money and the faerie coach has crumpled into a pumpkin. after the candles and incense have burned thr

hysical law, the nose will remain unblown through all eternity. writers of magick have been unsparing in their efforts to instruct us in the preparation of the will, but they seem to have imagined that no further precaution was necessary. there is a striking case of an epidemic of this error whose history is familiar to everybody. i refer to christian science, and the cognate doctrines of "mental healing" and the like. the theory of such people, stripped of dogmatic furbelows, is perfectly good magic of its kind, its negroid kind. the idea is correct enough: matter is an illusion created by will through mind, and consequently susceptible of alteration at the behest of its creator. but the practice has been lacking. they have not developed a scientific technique for applying the will. it is

d come to a realization of the rhythmic work of creation. incidentally also we gain poise as we study our own life impulses, for they also have their ebb and flow, and alternate between periods of light and periods of darkness. we have with us always that symbolic daily occurrence wherein the part of the world in which we live swings out into the clear light of the sun, and later returns into the healing dark of the night. our very familiarity with the phenomenon causes us to lose sight of its symbolic significance and to forget that under the great law, periods of light and dark, of good and evil, of submergence and emergence, of progress into illumination and apparent betrayal into darkness, characterize the growth of all forms, distinguish the development of races and nations, and const

to study briefly the type of hands and their quality which are distinctive of disciples. in all forms of esoteric teaching the hands play a great part and this for four reasons: 1. they are the symbol of acquisitiveness. 2. they are centres of force 3. they are wielders of the sword- 330- a treatise on white magic copyright 1998 lucis trust 4. they are, when employed unselfishly a. instruments of healing. b. agencies whereby certain keys are turned. viewing them as symbols of acquisitiveness it must be remembered that in the average man they are employed to "grasp and to hold" and to acquire that which the man wants for himself and for the satisfaction of his selfish desire. in spiritual man, the hands are still symbols of acquisitiveness but he only grasps that which is needed for the hel

ent part, and one that is little understood. it is an occult fact that the hands of a disciple (once he has acquired that acquisitiveness which is based on unselfish group work) become transmitters of spiritual energy. the "laying on of hands" is no idle phrase nor confined solely to the operations of the episcopate of any faith. the occult laying on of hands can be studied in four aspects: 1. in healing. in this case the force which flows through the hands comes from a dual source and via two etheric centres, the spleen and the heart. 2. in the stimulation of any specific centre. the energy employed in this case comes from the base of the spine, and the throat, and must be accompanied by appropriate words. 3. in the work of linking a man up with his ego. the force used here must be receiv

ing and satisfaction of purely personal, physical needs can be presented in such a manner that they may seem entirely right. yet we do not live by bread alone, but by means of the spiritual life which (coming forth from god) pours into, and is the life of, the lower man. this is the first essential for understanding. upon that soul life and upon that inner contact the emphasis should be laid. the healing of the physical body, when diseased, would be satisfactory to the individual, but living as a soul is of more importance. the emphasis upon a divinity which must express itself entirely through the meeting of a physical need, in a monetary manner, most definitely limits divinity to an attribute of itself. when we live as souls, when our inner life is oriented to god, not because of what we

time and space, in a particular life and at a special time, illness has its uses and may be a profoundly desirable blessing. poverty and financial stringency may re-establish a lost sense of values and enrich the heart with compassion. money and perfect health may be disasters to many. but the use of divine power for selfish ends, and the affirming of the divine nature for purposes of individual healing, seem a prostitution of reality, and constitute the temptation which christ so triumphantly met. we live by the life of god. let that life flow in "more abundantly" upon us and we shall become, as christ became, living centres of radiant energy for the service of the world. probably what may happen will be better physical health, because we shall not be so preoccupied with ourselves. freed

psychologists do not escape from this view of sin when they deal with it as moral disease, for their one hope of treating such moral disease successfully rests in an attempt to awaken the latent personal resources of the ego, through processes in themselves personal. where, as in certain of the major psychoses, this appeal cannot be made, there is no human hope of a cure. the key to psychological healing lies in the transference and there is the closest possible parallel between this and the christian way of forgiveness. both methods are wholly personal, both depend upon a readjustment of relationships which begins at priest or physician and passes out into every relationship of the social environment [italics are mine. a.a.b.]35 the sense of responsibility for one's actions grows as one p

it is well to remember that this fourth ray is preeminently the ray of the fourth creative hierarchy, the human kingdom, and therefore has a peculiar relation to the functions, relationships and the service of man, as an intermediate group, a bridging group, upon our planet. the function of this intermediate group is to embody a type of energy, which is that of at-one-ment. this is essentially a healing force which brings all forms to an ultimate perfection through the power of the indwelling life, with which it becomes perfectly atoned. this is brought about by the soul or consciousness aspect, qualified by the ray in question. the relation of the human family to the divine scheme, as it exists, is that of bringing into close rapport the three higher kingdoms upon our planet and the thre

n of the instinctual nature. within the human family, the various cleavages of which man is so distressingly aware will be bridged and ended when the mind is trained to control and to dominate within the realm of the personality and is correctly used as an analytical, integrating factor instead of as a critical, discriminating, separative factor. the right use of the intellect is essential to the healing of the personality cleavages. the cleavage between personality and the soul is resolved by the right use of: 1. the instinctual sense of divinity which leads to reorientation in the right direction. this leads to 2. the intelligent use of the mind so that it becomes consciously aware of the soul and of the laws which govern soul unfoldment. 3. the intuitive recognition of reality, which re

s really established, it should begin to function outwardly and its life should begin to make its presence felt. it should steadily tend to increase the spiritual potency of all groups with which the group members are related and with which they may be associated. i refer to all groups which belong to the new age and are working along spiritual lines. the eventual effect will be along the line of healing the various ills of mankind physical, mental, psychological and emotional. there are certain simple but definite rules which should govern the interior spiritual life of neophytes in training for the various stages of discipleship. let me here outline to you my suggestions for this simple and immediate work. first of all, all disciples practise regular and daily meditation. these meditatio

sness is as yet so young and unpolarised that it is needless for me to enlarge upon the possibilities ahead. when men can be trained to be unselfishly and divinely magnetic and radio-active, then there will be poured out upon the world certain divine forces which will vivify and reconstruct, which will eliminate the evil and heal the sick. hitherto the attempts of men in the field of medicine, of healing and of the various forms of therapy have been the result of impulses to respond to these hovering forces, but that is all as yet. these are the three major faculties which the spiritual man can unfold; other faculties and developing capacities are only expansions of these three telepathic thought, receiving and transmitting; intuitive recognition of truth and its formulation into concepts

that is all as yet. these are the three major faculties which the spiritual man can unfold; other faculties and developing capacities are only expansions of these three telepathic thought, receiving and transmitting; intuitive recognition of truth and its formulation into concepts by the mind, plus the later process of materialising that which has been intuited, the highest form of creative work; healing, with its understanding of energy and forces which will lead later to the rebirth of humanity. little by little, the picture of the possibilities and of the plan will unfold before you as your minds increase in sensitivity and your brains become more responsive to mental impulses. little by little, the disciples of the world will work at the reproduction on the physical plane of that which

astral plane and dispel the illusory nature of its life. 3. the third group is that of the magnetic healers. these healers have no relation to the work of the so-called magnetic healers of today. they work intelligently with the vital forces of the etheric body. much of their work is dealt with in the fourth volume of a treatise on the seven rays. this group of healers must bring about the right healing of the personalities of individuals in all aspects of their nature. the work to be done is that of the intelligent transmission of energy to various parts of the nature mental, emotional and physical through the right organisation and circulation of force. present day healers should endeavour to break loose from the modern and traditional ideas as to healing; they should recognise the stup

fications and interpretations. you will have noted how the career of the man has, therefore, proceeded from a crisis of duality to one of a relative unity, only to have that sense of unification disturbed by a renewed recognition of a higher and deeper duality. this duality temporarily produces another cleavage in a man's life, and thus re-initiates a torturing process of bridging or of "occultly healing" this break in the continuity of the spiritual consciousness. i would here remind you that this sense of peace or perception of cleavage is in itself an illusion and of the nature of glamour, and is based upon the illusory sense of identification with that which is not the self, or soul. the entire problem can be solved if the shift of the consciousness is away from identification with the

aeons to the aspiration of the imprisoned soul, focussed within or identified with some aspect of the personality, and, in a later stage, with the personality itself. in this analysis of the various signs i have not given much time to the consideration of the effect of the zodiacal signs upon the physical body. this is a science in itself and is closely tied up with the entire theory of spiritual healing. i would like, however, to touch upon the relation of gemini to the physical form, for it is so truly symbolic of the processes of divine unfoldment and therefore most timely. gemini rules the arms and the hands, indicating the service which the two brothers must render to each other in producing the dissolution (under pluto) of the separative relation which exists for so long between them

have reached the point where i was absolutely useless, just doing the chores and the ordinary routine of small town living which hundreds of women, with less background, education and brains were probably doing better. i was tired of washing diapers and cutting bread and butter. i knew the meaning of complete despair. the only comfort which i had were the children and they were so tiny that their healing quality lay in their lack of understanding. the climax of this came on a day when i was quite desperate and, leaving the children in the care of a neighbor, i went out into the woods alone. for hours i lay on my face wrestling with my problem and then, standing up under a big tree, which i could probably find again if that piece of ground has not been built over, i told god that i was quit

astrology is a fundamental and most necessary science. a.a.b. knows nothing about astrology; she cannot even set up a chart nor could she tell you the names of the planets and the houses which they rule. i am, therefore, entirely responsible for all that appears in this and all my books, except, as before explained, the one book, the light of the soul. the fourth volume deals with the subject of healing, and with the bridging by the antahkarana of the gap which exists between the monad and the personality. it also gives the fourteen rules which those in training for initiation have to master*(1) again, i would call your attention to this last theme, reminding you that a.a.b. has never made the slightest claim, either privately or publicly, to be an initiate, nor will she. she knows it is

rust copyright renewed 1981 by lucis trust- 1- copyright 1998 lucis trust introductory remarks the entire subject of healing is as old as the ages themselves, and has ever been the subject of investigation and experiment. but as to the right use of the healing faculty and forces, the knowledge is in its infancy. only in this age and generation is it at last possible to impart the laws of magnetic healing, and to indicate the causes of those diseases originating in the three inner bodies which today devastate the human frame, cause endless suffering and pain, and usher man through the portal which leads to the world of bodiless existence. only today is man at the point in the evolution of his consciousness where he can begin to realise the power of the subjective worlds, and the new and vas

n of his consciousness where he can begin to realise the power of the subjective worlds, and the new and vast science of psychology is his response to this growing interest. processes of adjustment, of elimination and of cure engage the minds of all thoughtful people as well as of all suffering people. we have much to do, and i ask therefore for patience on your part. when one enters the realm of healing, one enters a world of much esoteric knowledge, and of an infinity of conclusions, and one is faced with the formulations of many minds, who, through the ages, have sought to heal and to help. the why and the wherefore of disease have been the subject of endless investigations and speculations, and much definite deduction has been made as to the cures of such complaints; there has been als

e mechanism which is used by the souls they contact. when i employ the word "mechanism" in these instructions i refer to different aspects of the instrument, the body or form nature, through which all souls seek manifestation. i refer, therefore, to: 1. the dense physical body, which is the sumtotal of all the organisms which compose it; these- 2- a treatise on the seven rays- volume iv: esoteric healing copyright 1998 lucis trust possess the varying functions which enable the soul to express itself on the physical or objective plane as part of a greater and more inclusive organism. the physical body is the response apparatus of the indwelling spiritual man and serves to put that spiritual entity en rapport with the response apparatus of the planetary logos, the life in which we live and m

sentially for physical ends, to serve more subjective purposes. this again produces trouble, and only when man realises that within the outer physical sheath there exist other bodies which serve more subtle response purposes will we see the gradual readjustment and health of the physical body. with these more subtle sheaths we shall later deal- 3- a treatise on the seven rays- volume iv: esoteric healing copyright 1998 lucis trust you naturally ask here: what is the general plan which i shall seek to follow as i instruct you in the laws of healing, those laws which guide the initiates and must gradually supersede the more physical methods of the present art of healing? you naturally also seek to know what is the special technique which you as healers must learn to employ, both as regards y

bility true magick is not like a cake in which everybody must vie for a slice or be left with none: it is more akin to a never-emptying pot. like the legendary cauldron of undry in celtic myth, the more goodness that is put in, the more the mixture increases in richness and quantity. the cauldron of undry, one of the four main celtic treasures, provided an endless supply of nourishment, had great healing powers and could restore the dead to life, in either their former existence or a new life form. located on the isle of arran, it could be accessed by magical means or through spiritual quests, and many scholars believe it was the inspiration for the holy grail. but when using magick, you should take only as much as you need and perhaps a little more; you should not demand riches, perfect l

of magic is just a trick, which relies merely on the art of illusion. white magick is much more than that. it is intensely exciting because it means that we can extend the boundaries of possibility, recalling the psychic powers of childhood when we could span dimensions as easily as jumping across a puddle. we can increase our personal magnetism to attract love and luck and regenerate the innate healing abilities both of the human body and the planet. what magick does not do is provide quick fixes with a twinkling of stardust. it does not produce a faerie godmother, who turns up with a shimmering frock and a platinum credit card to pay the taxi fare home if the handsome prince is short of money and the faerie coach has crumpled into a pumpkin. after the candles and incense have burned thr

CHIREAU YVONNE BLACK MAGIC RELIGION AND THE AFRICAN AMERICAN CONJURING TRADITION

l has called "lived religion" or the practice and "everyday thinking and doing of lay men and women" african american religion, according to this perspective, not only embodies ecclesial formations of faith but also encompasses noninstitutionalized expressions and activities.[6] it is my belief that permutations of the supernatural in practices such as conjuring, the african american tradition of healing and harming, have been resignified as "religion" generally, however, observers have not viewed conjure and religion as elements of a single complex, choosing instead to retain the "magic-religion" dichotomy when looking at african american spirituality. perhaps one reason is that most interpreters set "christian" and "non- christian" traditions against each other, with little regard for th

le region or population where african american supernatural traditions are found.not even new orleans, a demographically unique city that is more often associated with black "magic" than any other. rather, i argue that widespread affinities are\ 7\ manifested in black folk traditions, be they practices from christianity in its numerous sectarian forms, or spiritual traditions such as supernatural healing and divination. the conclusion that i have arrived at is this: african american "religion" is not always distinct from what others call "magic" instead, these are complementary categories, and they have historically exhibited complementary forms in african american culture. the chapters in this book are arranged thematically. the first chapter considers the centrality of supernatural tradi

verification of what you see is best found by watching the news so it is best to pick a location that is likely to be on it, like a courtroom where a highly publicized trial is taking place then all you need to do is watch the news and see if your information is accurate. anyway, with some imagination you can readily see how useful this can be so have at it. to stay healthy the subject of psychic healing is one which always produces some trouble in the mind of the writer, especially in my case because healing is most definitely not my thing and something i only do under extreme duress. there is always the fear that a zealous reader will take the advice given to him and do something really stupid, like give up insulin for his diabetes. therefore, in putting this information before you i am

rce of blood for any small artery, one need only refer to any medical or anatomical book, or dictionary, and see what principal artery it connects with, and then trace it to the principal artery on this diagram. the arteries throughout the body carry the positive blood of the system. therefore, the arteries radiate the utmost vitality in a physical and also in a psychic sense. for that reason all healing work, where the hands are used, takes advantage of the natural radiation of power from these arteries. in the hands of each person there are arteries as well as veins, and it is from the arteries that the hands receive their vitality as used in all healing work. part of this vitality is the natural health and life of the physical body and part of it is the psychic power which is also in th

HELENA BLAVATSKY THE KEY TO THEOSOPHY

where are the chaldeans of old, those who wrought marvelous cures "not by charms but by simples? where is an apollonius of tyana, who healed the sick and raised the dead under any climate and circumstances? we know some specialists of the former class in europe, but none of the latter-except in asia, where the secret of the yogi "to live in death" is still preserved. q. is the production of such healing adepts the aim of theosophy? a. its aims are several; but the most important of all are those which are likely to lead to the relief of human suffering under any or every form, moral as well as physical. and we believe the former to be far more important than the latter. theosophy has to inculcate ethics; it has to purify the soul, if it would relieve the physical body, whose ailments, sav

ROBERT KIRK WALKER BETWEEN WORLDS

. kirk was no mere ignorant country priest, but a learned scholar, linguist and writer, and, of equal importance in the present context, a man of spiritual conviction and intuition. his involvement with second sight, however, may run even deeper than an of the foregoing, for he was a seventh son, and such people are traditionally said to be born with certain inherent powers of second sight and of healing. kirk discusses this tradition in several places in his text, and we shall return to it again. he does not, however, state directly that he had second sight, though there are some textual implications that he had the healing touch. it would hardly have been politic for a clergyman to declare publicly that he was a seer, though there is no doubt whatsoever that kirk affirms the second sight

race and redemption, in which god revealed himself to the apostles through the name of five letters, yeheshuah. reuchlin held that with the birth of jesus, the name of four letters had been rendered powerless, its ability to cause miracles having passed into the name of jesus. this is why in the gospels the name of jesus has such force in casting out demons from the bodies of the possessed and in healing the sick. by using the holy tongue, hebrew, and the numerical methods of the kabbalah, reuchlin maintained that the truths of christian doctrine could be proved and, more than this, that all occult secrets could be laid bare. the importance of pentagrammaton was further enhanced by the venetian francesco giorgi (1456-1540, who, in his book de harmonia mundi (on the harmony of the world, pu
