Cyber Cauldron

The following are all documented incidents in the killings of “witches.” So as part of lesson into the history of witchcraft and our past lets do a role call of our brothers and sisters who died because they where named as WITCH as part of your learning if a name calls you seek out their history and learn!

ONLY incidents relating to witchcraft accusations have been included. Bear in mind that this is assuredly not all of them.

Interestingly, it is possible to document that of all the trials, only one set (in 1390 Milan) involved women tried for practicing rites led by the pagan Goddess Diana. The bulk of the trials between 1400 and 1700 involved diabolism, Luciferianism, and acts relating to the Devil. Before 1400, the majority of trials were focused on the use of magics to harm others, to practice treasonous divination and spells against a monarch.

It is therefore a reasonable assumption to make that the trials and persecutions of the “Burning Times” were not aimed at actual practicing “pagans,” but rather at a whole other class of people.

Some were guilty. Most were probably innocent and Christian. A few were “satanists,” most were not. Some were just senile. Or too ugly. Or too pretty. Or just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

The Burning Time is that period in history where women and men where persecuted and killed under Christian Church doctrine as witches or heratics.

This all started with Pope John XXII formalized the persecution of witchcraft in 1320 when he authorized the Inquisition to prosecute sorcerors. This was increased in 1484 when Pope Innocent VIII issued Summis desiderantes affectibus, a Papal bull authorizing two inquisitors, Kramer and Sprenger, to systemize the persecution of witches.

Has the hysteria increased and inquisitors starting being paid for every witch that confessed the ways of extracting a confession increased some of the more vicious included pulling bones from sockets twisting the muscle and pushing the bone backing to the socket or having brimstone/sulphur rubbed in to pubic and head hair and igniting it.

Any one could be accused of being a witch, most where accuse due to jealousy, fear or because they had argued with someone.

Once accused a person would be tested to see if they where a witch. The test would be :-

Dunking – The witch would be tied to a contraption known as a dunking stool, which would then be lowered into a fast flowing river, lake or large water container (usually blessed), to see if they would float. If able to float, then the accused was possessed with the ‘Spirit of Satan’ and ergo, a witch. Questions of whether clothing had filled with air and formed a convenient buoyancy aid were usually dismissed out of hand. If, however, the ‘witch’ drowned or died of hypothermia, they had obviously not been under Satan’s protective watch, and were therefore innocent. Unfortunately for the person concerned, they were also dead, so it all ceased to be of relevance.

Scales of Justice – An alternative trial was often to weigh the accused against a copy of the Holy Bible. If heavier than the book, the accused was being pulled down by the weight of the ‘Spirit of Satan’, and therefore a witch. If however, the good book proved the weightier, the person was not a witch and was free to go. Again questions of simple physics were discarded as irrelevant. Variations of this method were used, including weighing the witch against other holy relics, or indeed any object that was undoubtedly lighter than the accused.

Pricking the Flesh – This involved finding a mark of Satan upon the accused, usually a mole, wart, scar, skin blemish, birthmark or even third nipple. Once found, an accuser would push a knife or needle into the irregularity. If the wound drew blood, the ‘witch’ was innocent of the charge. If, however, no blood flowed from the wound, allegiance with the Devil was assumed. This test worked fairly well for the innocent, until some accusers found that a false knife, sleight of hand or even knowing places on the body where a needle could be inserted without pain or blood loss when ‘pricking the flesh’ could produce a more desired effect. The discovery of a witch!

Burning at the Stake – Self-explanatory really. The accused was tied to a stake and set fire to. If the witch survived the smoke and flames (highly unlikely), they were said to be in league with the Devil and able to endure the flames of Hell and thus taken from the flames and hanged. If they burnt to death however, they were innocent of the crime of being a witch. Burning was also the preferred way of disposing of a discovered witch, as it meant that holy ground was not tainted with a witch corpse.

There is an estimated that around 5 million people died due to the witch trials. In one Forfar Scotland it was recorded that 22 women where killed and as an acknowledgement of these women Mark and Marie Cashley who were shocked to find out how the often widowed or impoverished women were targeted, tormented and killed in the quiet, Angus market town of Forfar as recently as the 17th century.

Mark and Marie where even more shocked when they found out that there was no memorial or anything to give their deaths meaning.

So they have had constructed a dry stone “cauldron” and had it placed close to a public park popular with dog walkers, and commissioned a stonemason to construct a memorial stone in memory of the witches.

The memorial stone is simply dedicated to the “Forfar Witches”, and features 22 dots that represent each of the women who were killed for the “abominable crime of witchcraft.” At the bottom, the legend reads, “Just people”.

I am not sure when magicks where broken down in to black or white magicks and tell the truth I am not that interested as it seem to polarise magicks in to good and bad magicks.
Magicks by its self is a neutral tool and with any tool it can be used for any purpose. Magicks can as easliy be turned in to a weapons just as any tool can.
I think we colour magicks to give ourselfs the right to do what we want.
The idea that white magicks is pure and that black magicks are negative is such a stupid idea for those who have studied magicks and witchcraft. If we look at magicks, as a symbol the yin-yang is magick, on the white side there is a black dot and on the black side there is a white spot.
Even magick done for the purest of reasons will cause some harm, as magicks done for the darkest of reason will create some good. Anyone who understands the most basic principles of the hermitic rules will see that even on an atomic level the use of magick will always contain some unwanted result.
The one thing we must bare in mind with magicks and the unseen effects and consequences created from the use of spells. When i first started I would use magicks like their where no limited and it was free, and yes they are no limited but they are not free – with time everyone learns that lesson.
Magicks shold not be seen as black and white rather more as gray , ranging from very light to very dark. the lighter the grey the closer to spirit, the darker the grey the closer to darker human needs.. The use of magick to help others falls somewhere around the middle often in the darker greys.
I have a strong belief in karma and belief now! That magicks should not be used on against or for someone unless you are willing to understand that YOUR actions can and will have an effect.
I am not saying that you should give up magicks they are an important part of witchcraft and neo pagan paths and a great aid to personal and spiritual development I just feel that we need to not be reliant on magicks to solve problems. I have know many many witches and neo pagans in my life many of whom use magicks like it was going out of fashion, Someone is sick let do a healing spell, someone needs money let do a wealth spell what ever the problem the wand is out without forethought to the reasons the person is having these difficulties.
If someone is sick let look at the reasons why they are sick, will their illness that they are going through help them will it cause them to change their ways … the likelihood is that their illness will create a change in their life – if you use magicks to improve their health speed healing the lesson that they would of learned could be lost at worse or soften so the changes that they would of made don’t fully happen.
Often causing the person to have a illness that recurs or worse the change that they would of made don’t happen and they end up with something much worse as a result of your interference.
Sometimes the best action a witch can do is to do nothing even know that they have the power to bring about change through magicks. This does two things I allows the witch to see the outcome without magicks and the second and most important thing it teaches that with power come great responsibility know when to wield power is the greatest understanding any person can achieve.
Like all things in life there are times to use magicks and time to use wisdom it is the greatest goal for any witch to gain wisdom and understanding. As with all things wisdom takes a long time gain if you ever do.
Before using magicks think is their another way to solve your problems, is magicks needed or even required. What is the lesson that needs to be learned?

The Cyber Cauldron is about the rituals rites and daily life of a solitary gay witch Draco of the Dragon Star (that me by the way) I have been a pagan now for about 27 years and have worked in groups large and small.

As for my path i would describe myself as a sharmanic eclectic hedge witch or Wiccan’esk partly because over the years i have found things that have worked from other traditions and have blended them into my own path.

Since i am a homosexual i have fairly balanced sexual energies which helps working alone with the divine forms of the Goddess and God, working all male groups / female heavy groups i only seem to have very minor issues if i work in traditional wiccan groups (due to some prejudice) .

I hope with this site to inspire and teach as well as be taught by sharing my insights to living with Magick in your life. i will cover things like mediation techniques, spell casting, tarot reading, healing and my understanding of the Goddess and the God and their different aspects.

I will also provide rituals and spells along with jokes and musing. Over the years i have gathered many spell and rituals and I can not remember where i picked them up from but will share some with you.

Even in this day and age the topic of belief is normally not a point of conversation it one of the three subject that are not mentioned in polite society. This social taboo may be the reason that we still have fears as adults to talk about our spiritual beliefs.

In schools children are taught religious education as part of the curriculum but as we grow religion has a less important. Plus the level of information in schools is really not that informative is designed to pass exams and not designed to understand a belief structure fully.

Now with this limited information on religion, which is bias toward Christianity and if paganism is mentioned it done so in passing. Many people don’t really know what paganism is and have a very limited view of the craft, its still considered as fantasy by some.

As pagan we come from a history of persecution and forced conversions. This history still remains raw to many of us and we fear that it may happen once more. Even today there are still news items where children are killed or tortured because they are witches or news stories where “witchcraft” is linked to satanic worship.

These news stories have a very negative view of what witchcraft is at the moment around the web is the story of Delaware Senate nominee Christine O’Donnell and her claims of witchcraft. I have purposely tried to avoid mention her as all I feel is that she is another stupid person as she has made a link to blood rites and satanic rites in a youtube statement which only goes to put us in a negative light once more.

These negative views affect us only in a very minor way, as we understand the truth but they do have an affect on the way other see us. So when it come time for us to tell others that we are a witch, pagan or Wiccan or any other path we have to face their ignorance.

Know my view on whether paganism / witchcraft should be open or kept secrete is still divided, on one hand I am happy to see paganism in the public eye but no disrespect I am a very logical person and everything that I have seen on TV always make us look a little loony mainly due to the editing so much so I am often embarrassed to associate myself with the media impression of witchcraft and paganism. Not because of any other reason apart from the way pagans witches and Wiccan come across. On the other hand I feel that witchcraft is a personal path and should be kept secrete and only shared with those who know!

But whatever my personal views of the path their comes a point where you do have to mention to family and friends your beliefs and explain what you believe in. With friends it quite easy as we find friends with similar interest or how understand that there is something a bit different about us they have seen the books on the shelf and noticed the signs so it comes no surprise to them. But family that can be a difficult situation since we move away from them and communicate by phone, email and meet at family gatherings and we don’t seem to have that intimacy with family as we do with friends but there is always a connection with them. Our parents are people that we wish to please and we do seek their approval our social backgrounds have a huge impact on the people we become so if you come from a Christian or Muslim or Jewish telling your parents can be a difficult conversation Buy Cialis Online to have as you may feel that in some way you have let them down and can be afraid that you will face rejection.

For myself I found it easier to tell my parents I was gay mainly because it was not a choice it was who I was, but I chose to become a witch and that was a little difficult. And in those days there was not much information available on Wicca and to be honest witchcraft had a much more negative view than it does today.

Even with the fact that my family comes from a magickal background, which was ended, when my grandfather turned his back on his heritage and became Christian facing my parents and telling them I was a witch / pagan was a difficult subject to bring up. It was when I was in my early to mid 30’s when I did tell them that I was a pagan. Shockingly my family where ok with it uncles and aunts began asking if I would cast spells for them or read for them my father was more concerned that I would be naked and wearing woad but had to explain that I don’t look great naked and blue was not a colour that suited me and that I would look like blobby smurf so their was no need to worry.    

The thing about coming out of the broom closet it about timing it when you feel confident enough that you have chosen the correct path for you. I took many years and many paths to feel confident enough in my spirituality that I was sure that I had found the correct place to be a solitary witch with an eclectic style. If I had said when I was 13 /14 that I was a Wiccan I would have been wrong and may of been discouraged from my path as I was brought up catholic and went to catholic school so I knew the view of witchcraft the Catholics have, so I new it was the wrong time.

As the years have moved on and Wicca, paganism and witchcraft have entered public life making it easier to come out of the broom closet but you still have to choose who to tell and what to tell them. Terms like white witch (a term I loath as it diminishes us as witches we are not black or white or good and evil we are just witches) became acceptable in a sense and using that to identify yourself is ok but it still has a some what negative view to some.

If asked I am a pagan or a witch depending on how I feel normally it pagan as it get people asking what that and you can explain openly and fully what you believe no matter what path you are pagan always works fine. If I declare myself as witch I do it to be militant and defiant, a way of pissing people off, it instantly puts a wall up keeping them on the other side ok I only do it to Christians. No disrespect to Christians I have worked in a few Christian environments where I have been faced with daily let save the pagan talks as they felt my soul need saving, I found that when I called my self a witch they left me alone either because they felt my soul was beyond saving or they feared the magick “curses” I would put on them.

But these are some of the issues you face when you come out of the broom closet. People’s fears and superstitions are the biggest hurdle you have to face when you choose to tell people that you believe in something different from the “norm”.

So before you choose to tell the world you need to think-

1.      Am I sure that my spiritual journey has ended and I am on the right path to the divine?

2.      Am I telling you to shock you or seek your approval?

3.      Will me explaining about my beliefs cause you distress?

4.      Is this the best time to bring the subject up?

5.      Am I confident enough to face the questions that they will ask?

6.      How do I define my spiritual path? Pagan, Wiccan, Druid, witch etc

The first thing any spell or magick needs is a purpose or directs a desired out come. With that in mind then comes the ritual this may be done in or out side a sacred space depending on type of spell being cast. Spells may be in the form of a dance or acting out the desire outcome as in sympathetic magicks, or construction of potions or talismans or even by spoken rhythmic words in the form of Enchantments. The power of the word is very important magicks it is known that ancient god names when pronounced correctly imbue great power into a spell.

The aim next is to raise enough energy to caused the desired effect this raising of energy will take many forms such as dancing singing, chanting and mental skills and tools and ingredient. Once the energy has been built to it maximum it is the release or directed to it goal.

In Neo pagan and Wiccan groups spell casting is preformed in a magick circle at most coven meetings and although techniques vary the spell is normally written so everyone know what they are doing so that everyone energy is focused on the goal. The act of writing a spell help make it real by giving substance.

During these spell casting the quarters would be call the deities invited participants will follow the script of the ritual which would be learned before hand. Singing, dancing, drums will all add to the ritual energy raising and once built the energy would be released and the quarters and deities would be thanked and released.

As you read in the Facebook posting I will be closing the Cyber Cauldron down.

Now I am very sadden by this but there are reasons.

Cyber cauldron was a dream I started about 10 years ago it was my showpiece at the end of my training in web design and programming. I started out on my own in 2006 as a web designer using the cyber cauldron name about this time last year I knew I needed to reconnect with the divine on a very basic level so with the web design failing and debts mounting I designed the new Cyber cauldron site paid for it to be built to do what I wanted and found a supplier of pagan product which I felt others would like to buy.

Over the last year the cyber cauldron has become a money pit but that did not worry me each day I found a purpose, which allowed me the privilege to communicate with like-minded individuals.

Each day I would think about the divine and find something of interest to post sometime humour as I feel that sometime we can study so hard that we stop enjoying the learning process, my personal thought and musings on the goddess and magicks some of which never made it to post but I enjoyed the rant lol as well as what I felt new comers should know.

I always planned to run the cyber cauldron for a year and a day and cover the year and each festival as the moved towards them focusing on what it is to be an eclectic witch. My hopes would be that the cyber cauldron would become a true online coven I really wanted to reach for the stars but although still reaching grabbing nothing but air.

Now since Yule I have realised that in honesty that I can no longer justify that each month I have to pay for hosting, with no financial income of any kind it has got to the stage that my debts are getting higher and I have to sacrifice something.

Now I could work magicks for success or more money but I am an ethical witch and feel that magicks are available but you can become reliant on them I am happy to do workings for others but to work for personal gain is wrong and we can all find a reason to convince ourselves that it for the greater good a good witch understands that power is best tethered and control we wield a mighty weapon it is so might that it can control us so sometime it best not to use. In time you younger witches will see that magicks are a test you have to balance the times you use and the times you don’t sometimes we need to struggle.

Well getting back to the point I have tried everything to make this work on a financial level but still broke and getting worse by the day their have been time I have sat down in front of the PC and cried as I see my dreams slip away I have put pay pal donate buttons and google ads trying to off set cost but still broke lol.

A few days ago I sat down and as my fingers touched the keyboard from deep down inside a voice said today is the day to close the cauldron lid but I pushed on but last night I finally had to admit that this was coming to an end so posted to Facebook so in a weakened state I did the thing that I have found so hard to do.

Now the facts are I love the cyber cauldron it has been a part of my life but as we face Ostara I must return to balance and face the reality that I cannot spend every waking hour working on something that is not beneficial as an income.

So with that being said (unless I win the lottery) the cauldron must die but as witches we know that death is not the end so I can assure you that cyber cauldron will rise again and continue although I am not sure yet how I just know I cannot do it alone anymore in it current format.

Now I must say that the comments and phone call this morning shocked me as I final felt that the cyber cauldron was finally a coven I saw the high priestess take their roles as I remembered our conversation and I saw how much they have grown and felt the goddess in each and I was reassured that for me to let go of the path I chose a bigger and better path was waiting for me.

I make two promises one that the cyber cauldron as it stands will continue until we have done a year and a day and two that even if it just facebook the cyber cauldron will remain and our friendships will never be broken.

The love spell is a very controversial spell although the love spell has been around since the dawn of magicks. Like the binding spell the love spell is designed to compel an individual to do something that is not in the nature.

The Wiccan Rede and the three fold law forbid the use of the love spell but that being said there are still a million and one love spells available in the forms of Chants, Spell Kits, lotion and potions.

By casting a Love spell on a person you are attempting to control a person forcing them to love you. If a person does cast a love spell, on another it because they desire or they are obsessed with that person.

Love spells do not create real love they create the illusion of love so why are love spells so popular. The truth is that we all seek to be loved its a basic human desire the problem come when the love is not pure. Mixing magicks and emotional states such as love can cause so many bad effects for both the caster and the recipient.

In Buy Levitra Online Neo paganism and Wicca the Love spell has moved away from a spell to compel love rather to a spell that help the caster or recipient to become open to love and find love.

So do love spells work the answer to that is yes but not always in the way you want which is the truth as I looked back over my book of shadows I read through some of the love spells that I have collected and one that popped out was one I cast oh it must have been 10 years ago, I knew my partner the but we were just friends who ran a small pagan group and we lived very close to each other I had just split up from my ex and wanted to find a new love and move on with my life, well I moved away and started a new life in Dorset I stayed in contact with my friend through letters and call and I must say I always had a thing for him but I thought he was 100% straight so never even considered us as a couple but one day as we where chatting he flirted with me so flirted back and some how it came out he had feelings for me and vice versa and we have been together ever since everything that I asked for came true I found my soul mate.

The spell I used is a follows all you need is some red ribbon or cord and a bell I will state I can not remember where I got the words from “so I would just like to say thank you”

Prepare your working space and circle, as you would normally do.

The words

As he is wise, kind and beautiful,

Let him now hear me.

As he is both gentle and sure of his own purpose, his own direction,

As he is my true partner,

Strong to fulfil and to be fulfilled by me,

Let him hear and come,

Let him hear and respond,

Knowing who calls,

And in his presence means happiness and as I to him an cup and wine, earth and flourishing trees, fruit barring.

Ring the bell and tie cord

And say
As this knot is tied, so may the link be made.

And may the link be love

Before whipping your wands out ready to cast for love think do you need to cast for love. Are any reason that are stopping you from being open to love if there are then you should sort these out before hand. Are you looking for instant love or a date for next Saturday then love spells are not where should be looking. Love is something special and takes time to find your perfect partner, love should be given freely it cannot be contained, bottled, or held it a force that no magicks can control.

If you can’t find love then stop looking and let it find you it will when the time is right and remember that you do not need another to complete you just complement you. Learn to love yourself you can’t expect anyone to love you if you don’t love yourself.

Lunar deities can be male or female and these deities can also change to become solar deities and vice versa. For me the moon is a visual representation of the female aspect of the Devine and not “The” or “A” goddess but all goddess’s: the total female aspect.�
There are physical representations of “woman” in the moon cycle 29.53 days (29 days, 12 hours, 44 minutes) very close to a woman menstrual cycle. Also the  [wikipedia]phases of the moon [/wikipedia] resembles the life cycles with in womanhood, aging,  [wikipedia]pregnancy [/wikipedia] and  [wikipedia]menopause [/wikipedia] and all aspects of life.�
The Phase of the moon can also be attuned to the seasons and spell casting as well as your own life. It is a good idea to keep a moon diary and make note of your moods, your menstrual cycle or your own internal cycle.

Below is how I see the phases of the moon as a solitary practitioner I have to attune myself to myself for magickal working while groups attune to the group energy each group or person will have their own view of the moon and every single one is a correct view.�
The New Moon�
For me the new is the beginning and the end it contains all the hidden mysteries of woman and all the worst aspects of woman the side that when evoked is feared.�
First Quarter�
For me this aspect relates to the maiden aspect of the goddess because of the new possibilities and the sense of growth and understanding and the potential of new energy.�
There is always a sense of silliness for me around this time for me, which I enjoy.�
For me this phase of the moon relates to spring the hope of new beginnings, growing in strength, becoming fertile and this will reflect on what spell or rituals I plan to perform during the new moon.�
In the first quarter I would cast spells for strengthening will power, health or financial situations.�
Full Moon�
For me the is very much the mother aspect of the goddess, each time I look on the full moon I can feel the smile of a loving mother watching over me. For me the full moon fills me with a sense that I am protected someone is always lighting my way, and my back is always covered.�
For me this phase of the moon relates to the summer and transformations, relaxation, friendship, and taking some personal time. Personally I do not cast spells during the full moon unless there is an emergency but I do perform ritual where the focus is to gain understanding and patience and learn to accept the life that I have been given and that changes what will happens when it is right like a mother waiting to give birth it will happen when it meant to not before or after with whatever results are meant to be.�
The last quarter.�
This phase of the moon always reminds me of my mother in the last few years of her life. She had found her soul mate had a nice home and mellowed so much as a person and she had become friend and confidant but she still had a vicious side.

She was mother, stepmother and grandmother and dying with an understanding the she was passing away a crone.

This phase for me relates to autumn and the slow death of nature the weakening of the sun the whole winding down.

The rituals and spells I would perform in this phase would be spells or rituals to weaken or end things in healing ritual I would work to lessen the illness (NB; always work to weaken illness never symptoms, weaken or reducing symptoms can make the person worse as your spell will mask the illness).

The New Moon

And we are back to the new moon and in this phase I see the in a number of ways first I see the true crone stepping in to death I see the maiden and the mother I see all the contradiction, life and death, I see the eternity of unknown knowledge, the darkness of fear.

This phase to me is winter the thing that becomes hidden a time for withdrawal and darkness.

This would be the time to do protection spells; this would also be the time to perform darker magicks such as spells for personal gain, bindings or insuring that people get what is coming to them. If you do decide to work darker magicks beware the rule of three what you send out comes back threefold.

Honour the Goddess in all things and view the moon as a living photo of the mother gaze on it daily and connect with the moon as a huge power source of cosmic female energy and not as a living deity.
