We all know that many magicians and sorcerers where know for leaving things out or making deliberate mistakes or change position it the elements (earth, air, fire and water). The most noted case of ritual tampering occurs in the Sun square of the planet square use in talisman making. It is also know or accepted that many published rituals where incomplete or had important aspects altered to insure that only the initiated could know the truth. But ritual Buy Generic Drugs Without Prescription tampering goes much deeper that much of our history became mixed and hidden within Christianity.

Our rituals like Yule (Christmas) Samhain (all hallow) Ostara (easter) etc where adopted by Christianity and blended to smooth the transition. Others we hid ourselves in the form of folk traditions and rhymes, which are still in use today although their true meanings may be lost.

Rhymes where used to encode magickal information, spells and forms of divination and where passed on from mother to children and where used to program the information in a way which would be easy to retain and look harmless to the outside world.

A few common rhymes, which are still used, for divination or to find the answer include-

Taking a flower while pulling out petals a person would rhyme
He / she loves me
He / she loves me not
one line for each petal alternating until you are left with one petal love or love not. There are variations on this
He loves me,
He don’t,
He’ll have me,
He won’t,
He would if he could,
But he can’t
So he don’t.”
This is to be said while plucking the petals off a daisy or while taking out the seeds from an apple.

Another Popular of hiding our tradition was nursery rhymes although the originals names where Christianise so only speculation can be given to their original name The character Jack is associated with the tarot card the Fool , the wise fool off on his journey.

One popular rhyme “Jack Be Nimble,” was originally a rhyme said while jumping over a candlestick to determine one’s luck or chance of marriage or even fertility for the coming year. If the candle stayed lit it meant the response would be positive. Although a less pleasant version was, children would stand in a circle and pass a candlestick around. Whoever was holding the candlestick when the flame went out would die within the year.

Counting rhymes where and still used for selection in olden times they would have been used to select sacrifice of to select champions in individual contests, to determine the partition of conquered or colonised lands, in the division of spoil, in the appointment of magistrates and other functionaries, in the assignment of priestly offices, and in criminal investigations where doubt existed as to the real culprit according to Henry Carrington Bolton in his book “The Counting-Out Rhymes of Children, dated 1888.

Other uses for the nursery rhymes was to teach spells and magick the rhyme Goosey, goosey gander
Goosey Goosey Gander where shall I wander
Upstairs and downstairs and in my Lady’s chamber
There I met an old man who wouldn’t say his prayers
So I took him by his left leg and threw him down the stairs.
Is said to be a spell where you create a elemental being of energy which you would use to be a watcher a spy although in the rhyme the shape of the elemental is a goose it is much more likely that smaller less complex creatures would be use such as a flea or fly.

There are probably many more undiscovered meaning to old rhymes and chants many will be lost forever some will have hidden meanings, which will just make sense when you take a closer look, there is a wealth of untapped magickal knowledge out their if we just can find it.

I thought for a bit of fun I would try some magick encoding myself so I came up with this rhyme which contains all the information on a healing ritual and meditation why not see if you can unravel it and create a ritual from the information inside

Healing forces near and far come together and form a 5 pointed star.

Now call the element one by one and by first light of sun the four become one.

Embody the one I wish to heal; my healing touch they soon will feel.

I call the divine to strengthen this gift.

Now with words of magick my spell I fix.

Now close my eyes and the world out side.

Inside two realms I now stride.

The one that is distant will now take its place.

I can now direct magick to the human face.

Hold the vision; make it real

Add some essence and make it feel

Take a hand and wave away any pain that was doomed to stay.

Add some strength and make them strong

Now the time to add some song.
