wow your bos seems impressive im just starting mine i hope that in the future ill be as well knolaged as you. if you dont mind me asking how long have you been studying and do you study in a group or alone?
Actually I have only been studying for about 9 months! I am unemployed – so I have A LOT of time to devote to mt study.
Just stumbled upon your BOS table of contents. GREAT STUFF!! I’m impressed. It looks similar to the layout for mine that I constructed soon after I became a Witch (it grew and grew and grew). Great to see! I do have a question, though: is the Milk Bath that you’re familiar with used as a general purification bath? I’m assuming so, considering the white (purifying) properties. I’m sure it’s also aligned to the Moon/lunar cycle, because milk is a purely female-produced product, and the moon itself is white. I’m going to suggest a milk bath in one of my own spells in a future book, and wanted to see if others had a similar association (or additional alignments or historical knowledge). Thanks!
RD
PS, Organic milk is the only way to go, FOR SURE!! (otherwise it’s tainted with the animal’s fear and pain)
Neat thoughts here and I like your take on things. One thing I’ve seen is what we think about is 100% what we attract. We create our own reality.
Planetary Invocations #4 – The Moon…
This is a ritual drawn again from the Greek Magical Papyri. I often use this in the context of Dream Divination. The invocation is adapted from a spell to invoke the Moon for the purposes of Divination. The rubric of the spell says that this chant shou…
Hi there,
I stumbled upon your page searching for a protection spell. While I am new to spell casting in this life, I have always felt a strong sense of inner power and a compelling draw toward Wicca. I would love to speak to a practicing Wiccan and hear their journey to what made them start to get to where they are now. You’re BOS index is inrpiring. I would love to speak more with you about your journey if possible.
Blesse be… 🙂
