Welcome! I am a Northern Traditionish/Heathenish person and well aware of how confusing and confronting the community can be to newcomers. Even the Northern Tradition community (which used to be the...
It depends on what the item is and whether it is discharging energy in order to fulfill it's purpose. Most stone, wood and metal items will hold infused energy for many years and are largely self...
I have to disagree here, Sean. A novice can generate the same raw energy as an experienced practitioner if they have the right motivation. The difference lies in the control and direction of that...
Pfft, some of us are Satanists and Demonolators and other treaders of the LHPs. Most of us have worked execration magick of some description at some point in time and many of us are also experienced...
Full disclosure here... I have not one musical bone in my body and never did mesh with music beyond the 'that's nice' level. BUT... music has a rich and varied history in paganism and traditional...
I don't know much about the Celtic pantheon, but demonized deities are sort of my speciality... so I know that frustration very, very well! I have an affinity with cthonic and death deities, and...
I overheard a conversation between some of my workmates (vet nurses/techs) about this very same subject today! None of them are particularly spiritual but the general consensus was that deceased pets...
It's entirely possible that resuming contact is not what is in your best interests, or in the best interests of the other person. As Sean said above, magick is a way to supplement your...
That depends entirely on what you mean by 'totem'. Do you mean the popular neopagan notion of a lifelong animal guide that represents your innermost being and workings as a person? Or the notion of a...
I don't know anything about wendigos, so I can't really comment on this particular entity... but 'totems', animal guides, power animals, animal spirits, familiars and fetches are something that I...
I wasn't talking about the ones who died of the plague either. I was talking about the ones who died of simple infections. Because that's what happened.
In terms of mythology... I actually do...
Pagans 'back then' died of simple infections. Sometimes they died because of the disease. Sometimes they died because of the herbs/poultice/fungi/rock/metal/toxic substance that they took as an...
Plus Pochahontas. Then Belle, Cinderella, Aurora, Snow White, Rapunzel and I think Vanelope counts too. And the non-princesses, most of whom are not Caucasian (Esmerelda, Alice, Lilo, Kida, the curvy...
In Australia, it depends on what colour red you are. Ginger kids are teased really badly, and certainly were when I was a kid (not by me!), especially if they were also pale with freckles. Strawberry...
Sure I can. And I will because The Little Mermaid was always one of my favourite Disney films. But using your own logic in retort, you can watch a black mermaid in Siren, so what's the big deal? ...
So... I actually do have an issue with a black Ariel. Not because they've changed her skin colour or 'ethnicity' (and I agree with the sentiment that there is no ethnicity for merfolk)... but because...
I can't say I've ever heard of a 'soul voice' per se... but the power of the voice and the spoken/sung word is fairly well known in the Northern paths. We have an entire flavour of magical practice...
Lots of stuff! Rocks have an energy, just like everything else (they are made up of vibrating atoms too!), and semiprecious rocks have the added advantage of colour vibrations that people can very...
For beginners I would pick well-known stones that are easy to find info on and that are typically 'gentle' and easy to connect with. Now obviously that last bit will depend on the individual, but any...
Hahaha pretty sure I still have the video of your first attempts somewhere... ;) I have a wheel now, so I'll teach you that next time you're over.
On a purely spiritual note, I've found that when...
Well, 'friendly' is a relative term! One of the easiest places to start is the Goetia, as information on Them is readily available and it's easy to learn who may be able to help with what sort of...
That depends entirely on what your intentions are and who you resonate with.
So this is where things get really interesting... most of the Demons who appear to be of Abrahamic origin actually pre-date monotheistic Judeo-Christian paths. Judaism has a rich history of entities...
I define a 'Demon' as one of the named greater entities that are considered deities or comparable in influence and significance to deities... so the Goetia, the demonized deities, Lucifer, the Four...
