With Earth we have direct each and every day we walk on earth eat plants from the earth animals that have feed on the earth but we really realise that the connect we have with earth and often pay little attention to it in our daily life we all might work hard to save the planet but that not connecting to it we distance ourselves from earth becoming care takers rather than living in unity with it. Earth comes in many forms the mountains, metals, crystals the stars and planets it is the stabilising factor that supports life as well as forming it. Our bones are the earth and so our connection is also a personal one. The focus of Earth is to bring stability and balance and structure to our lives and our environment.

We have four base elements earth air fire and water in magicks it is desired to bring the elements into balance but each element has it own individual magicks attached so it always advisable to become familiar with elemental magicks. Elemental magicks are untameable and do not require any skills or knowledge to perform, but knowledge is required to prevent accidents. With fire we seem to have less of a physical connection as we do with air but we have to see fire as less that a flame it’s the spark of life it every electron and proton in every cell it the electrical energy that sparks across the brain and through the body creating movement it also dew deep inside us like a volcano waiting to erupt with passion or hate. The focus of fire energies dwell deep inside unlike air fire has to build and explode and burn a path to it goal, there is less of a chance to accidentally release fire magicks but when you do they are very powerful and in most cases are very negative or result in negative outcomes.

You need to explores your fires those inner ranges and passions in safe out lets self

The creation of an elemental

Encoding Magicks and Ritual Tampering Encoding Magicks and Ritual Tampering

Let’s start, what is an elemental. Unlike elemental beings, which exist and control the elements elementals are created by the will of witch or magician to do that will elementals will have some level of intellect, which will enable them to complete the desired task. Elementals can be used for negative as well as positive purposes, and that usually created from two or more elements and is created with a purpose or a goal to complete before ceasing to exist. Unlike elemental creatures, which exist within their own elements that elemental has to be created and have a finite lifespan. Elementals, can be created in any shape or used to empower an object, such as talismans and  amulets which then can be used for protection, to increase their desired outcome. Although extremely easy to create. When working with elemental Magicks.

They say that the longest journey begins with a single step. So, too, the exploration of Magickal studies begins with a single step. Though the first step in a physical journey is often self-evident, the First Step on a Magickal journey is often not quite so clear. While formally organized groups often have a path of lessons to instruct newcomers, the solitary or isolated student is often left standing in perplexity on this broad plain of knowledge, wondering just where in the heck to begin. And wondering, too, if it’s “okay” to start just anywhere. While it’s true that studies can begin in any direction that attracts you, the necessary first step must be learning to make psychic shields. There are “Things of the Dark” out there. There are any number of explanations for what these things might be — ghosts, demons, or simply uncontrolled urges of the subconscious mind. In truth, it doesn’t matter what they are. What does matter is that their effect is very real and unless they are put under your control, they will drag you over the borders of sanity into psychosis. You are most vulnerable to them while you’re in an “open” trance or meditative state. That’s why the wise practitioner always begins by taking steps to define exactly what will be permitted through the portals of their “psychic shields” — no matter how simple the ritual. And this, in a nutshell, is what “protective magic” is about. There are a number of ways to do this. The most

I am the one that stands alone. Between the breath and the stone. Casting circles of the mind. Summoning elements far and wide. In dreams and thought I summon thee. With heat and passion shall it be. Waves of emotions set it free. To the earth so mote it be. I now wrap in spirit bow. Till divinity in mortal form do show.   My voice  do speak hearts desire. Setting wish unto fire.

Daily Devotion

OFFERING OFFERING

It is important to remain connected to your magicks at all times if you are going to live a life with magick. You need to be aware of the continue ebbs and flows of your own energy and learn to keep it in check. When we first start out on the path we are taught about energy personal, elemental, divine and the list goes on and on. We start to keep books of shadows, where we note every new energy form, we come in contact with. We also note when our own internal energy changes and begin to control it allowing an even continues flow of energy and magick. For the beginner it is important to strengthen your connection and magick. One of the best ways to do this is to do a daily devotion. There are no hard and fast rules on how your devotion should be shown, although for beginners it should become a routine. Some ideas for Daily devotions include- Writing in book of shadows A mini ritual (breathing meditation visualisation) Simple meditation Pendent charging (charging a piece of jewellery you ware each day with solar energy) Morning or evening ritual (short complete ritual) Energy play or building and retracting energy. A daily prayer one of own construction A walk in nature This daily devotion should help you to connect with magicks on a deep personal level like you would with a friend. I personally feel that if your only contact with magick and the divine is when you celebrate a festival

Hammer Rite Ritual

An Example of the Hammer Rite Ritual as adapted by Grendel and unknown others Original bare bones by Edred Thorsson Terms Used VE: Ritual workspace or area. This can be a permanent room or a temporary space. GALDER: A magical invocation or mantra. STADHA: Bodily postures which imitate the shapes of runestaves used in GALDER. VITKI:  A runic magician In important ritual work the vitki may wish to recite an invocatory GALDER into which the hammer rite may be incorporated.  Such a GALDER would serve to invoke divine forces or simply act as a general  invocation to the runic powers, or both.  The knowledgeable vitki will compose his or her own rite and GALDER, for this would be a great deed of runecraft!  Note how the hammer rite is interwoven into this example: 1.  Standing in the middle of the VE, face north, in the STADHA and intone: Fare now forth      mighty Fimbultyr  “The Awesome God”      from heavenly homes all eight      Sleipnir be saddled,      hither swiftly to ride:      Galdrsfadhir, “The Father of Incantation” might to give and gain.      Holy rune-might flow      from the hoves of Hangatyr’s, “The God of the Hanged”, steed;      in streams of steadfast strength –      through staves of stalwart standing! 2.  Go to the northern rim of the VE and with the wand trace the circle in the direction of the sun, from left to right. During this process sing: The rune-might is drawn      ’round the holy-stead,      unwanted wights wend away!

A Random thought to a spell

Magicks cannot be taught as such! Magicks are not a subject! Or a specialty of any practice! It is a way of life, you live magick, and you breathe magick! You don’t need to call on magicks like you would call an old friend over at a party. But for those that know or feel that ritual is important, as this contains your use of it. As magicks uncontrolled can cause problems! An example of uncontrolled magicks is in the young a dream becomes a wish, a wish becomes a spell and results happen. For very young children their dreams are small normally very small, from I want food to can i have a Barbie, so have very limited negative results, but as they grow as we all do our dreams become filled with doubt reinforcing our expectations, so very few of their dreams become wishes, so less become spells. Some of our young are very talented in magicks and learn to use their skills, which again drop off when there are in their late teens early 20’s when life’s demands become a priority. Very few of these teens go straight to a magickal life unless they are exposed to magicks through the family or friends at a young age, they will often bounce around looking for answers to questions they do not know. But when magicks become a part of your daily life your limits are endless magicks can open you up to endless possibilities. For example when I thought about writing this (I
