Your Tarot Card for 2022: the Year of Lovers

Numerology is an ancient form of divination based on the eternal Wisdom of Numbers. Moreover, Tarot has been used as a method of divination for centuries and even modern witches see it as a very reliable tool for predicting the future. Long ago, in Ancient Greece, Egypt, China and many more great ancient civilizations it was believed that the harmony of this Material World is constructed on numbers. Everything that exists, has existed, or going to be born hides a hidden numerical nature. So let’s take a look at Numerology for 2022!

A FRUITFUL Important Year.

Knowing how Numbers work, we can understand the past and the present, as well as foresee the future of everything, because everything works on the same numerical pattern. A pattern familiar only to the Wise ones. This is why only the privileged ones could have access to this knowledge. As Pythagoras stated, and the Jewish mystical system known as Kabbalah reaffirmed, every word, every name, everyone and everything relates to a certain number. Thus, to certain qualities, abilities and a destiny.

So what Numerology for 2022 tells us about the new year which approaches? What should we expect from 2022?

2022 = 2 + 0 + 2 + 2 = 6

the lovers - charm of 2022

2020 was a year of obstacles which needed urgent and hard work. Moreover, it was a year of unbelievable – yet almost never properly directed and channelled – energy which filled our souls with anxiety and anger. However, it was also a year to leave the past behind and banish unwanted habits. Of course, this good work is not always appreciated. Now, things change!

2021 corresponded to the number 5, the number of the Hierophant. He actually represents a year that has the ability to fulfil our life with many moments of success and joy. However, the Hierophant is also the carrier of truths! Hence, reality was revealed to the world and illusions were shuttered.

2022 is the year of the Lovers as it corresponds to number 6! This is the time to make the right choices, which can change the world forever and bring us abundance and healing.  Tap into “the Lovers” and their abundance. Lovers represent balance, love, abundance and healing. An angel blesses the human couple and everything seems amazing. However, the dark lord waits in the form of a damned snake, so please don’t overestimate things and people. Choose wisely. Abundance is here, but it’s important to make it last!

Let’s see, now, what is going to happen to everyone of us, in the new year.

To do that we have to find our Tarot Destiny’s number for 2022!

What is MY TAROT CARD for 2022?

All you have to do is to add the digits of your date of birth – EXCLUDING the year you were born – with the present year, 2022!  So if you are born in July 08 1954 your personal number for 2022 comes by adding the number 7 (as July is the 7th month of the Year) with 08 and 2022. So 7 + 0 + 8 + 2 + 0 + 2 + 2 = 21 . The 21st card is the World!

If the Number is greater than 22, then add the digits of the sum – and repeat if needed – until you get a number from 1-22.

Let’s see another example. If you are born, let’s say, on September 19 1984: 9 + 1 + 9 + 2 + 0 +2 + 2 = 42

4 + 1 = 6! Therefore, 6 – the Lovers is you personal Tarot card for 2022 of the one who is born in September 19 1984!

1- The Magician

This is a year of great beginnings. Especially career-wise.This year is full of possibilities. You came a long road. Something has ended, or something inside you has died. But, after death, comes rebirth! This is the year you can set the foundation for a great new destiny for you. You may get promoted, find a new job, or, even more possibly, find a way to increase your income with your ideas. However, the magician also speaks of possible tricksters, trying to mess up with your brain. So choose wisely.

2- The High Priestess

This is the card that symbolizes the secrets and the divine feminine. During this year, it feels like you’re protected by feminine deities and the great mother Earth. This year focuses on your inner self and what you hide inside. The high priestess is also the one who rules the lunar mysteries. Hence, it is very important to understand that anything you hold in your heart should be expressed wisely. Moreover, secrets should be kept. Information is very important, during the next 12 months. Be extra careful on what you learn and what you say.

3- The Empress

This card symbolizes mother Earth’s abundance. It’s a feminine card which bears news regarding your prosperity and your family. The Empress is a very lucky card and will help you be creative and fertile in the next 12 months. Moreover, she will guide you to choose wisely in order to find a balance between your income and your expenses, as you might have lost it the previous years.

4-The Emperor

This is a very important year for you, my dear. Not just another ordinary 12 months for you. This is probably the year you will try to establish your power in your life. But please be aware that with great power comes great responsibility. The choices might not be always easy, and everything comes with a cost. However, this year is indeed what you’ve been looking for, to banish the problems from your life and assert your dominance in this world.

 5- The Hierophant

This is a year of truths and realizations. This is my personal favourite card, and that’s not because it’s an easy one, because it’s a liberating one. I personally find nothing more attractive and fulfilling than the truth. Remember that on the same scale of Hierophant is the Temperance – the life and magic force that runs effortlessly if there aren’t any blocks. Hence, you should not allow any blocks talker, for there are no worse blocks than those we create with the lies we tell to ourselves.

6-The Lovers

The next 12 months you will have the opportunity to choose different life paths. You are blessed with unique opportunities. But you have to choose wisely. This is a very promising year as you can set the foundations for a fruitful and prosperous life. This is a balanced card, yet a card that gives many blessings, and it is very important for you to channel all this abundant energy, and make your life abundant again!

7- The Chariot

This year is a year full of possibilities for success and once in a lifetime opportunities. Hence you need to keep an eye on these opportunities, and grasp them and make the best out of them. Success is near, but it is not achieved yet. Success and enlightenment comes when we are ready, as the ancient Greeks taught us. Are you ready? If not, please make sure you get ready as soon as possible!

8- Strength

This card is self explanatory. As you can simply understand, in the next 12 months everything will require your focus and your perception, in order to proceed further. You will find that you possess much more power than you thought and anticipated . Hence, this power will be directed to your evolution, healing, increasing your income and prosperity. This year you’ll find the strength to fight everything that is against you.

9- The Hermit

Do not be mistaken. This is not a bad year for you. Hermit is an auspicious card. He may not be as bright as the Sun, but it’s absolutely essential for you. Why? Because you come a long way, my dear. Somewhere in this long path of yours, you may have lost your way or, maybe, even yourself. Hence, this year is a very important year for you, as it helps you to explore new possibilities and to rebrand yourself. Yes, this year is not a very auspicious relationship-wise, but you might have the opportunity to meet your soulmate.

10- The Wheel of Fortune

This year can regarded both as auspicious and as critical, at the same time. This happens because the wheel of Fortune is an omen of change. Hence, you are advised to expect opportunities, as you will be able to follow a different life-path. What is more important is that this change may not look always good at first, but it’s definitely something that will help you with your life. So, fill your aura with good magic and shine like never before.

11- Justice

You are advised, by this card, to always be aware that your actions have consequences. I mean, this is something you obviously already know, but Karma is really obvious during the next 12 months. Also, this card hints you that karmic relationships are going to enter your life again. People you’ve known from past lives find their way back, to mend, or mess your life. However, remember that Justice holds the sword of truth, hence, you always have the ability to choose, even though sometimes it’s not that clear.

12- The Hanged Man

This is a year that is not going to be exactly as you thought. Be prepared for a bumpy road, but not necessarily a bad one. What I really want to tell you is, remember the old saying that when people make plans, God laughs. Of course, the divine powers do not laugh at us, but what the old saying actually means is, do not jump into conclusions. This might be a year for a huge growth for you, but you have to embrace the unknown.

13- Death

Do not be alarmed. This card does not imply physical death. Discard all the negativity regarding this Omen. Hence, what this card wants you to remember is that it’s time to put an end to things what have troubled you the past years, maybe for decades. This is the year to make clear start. I’m pretty sure you need that and that you already know you do.

14- Temperance

Sometimes, when you’re lost, a Magical time comes when every piece of the weird this puzzle is presented to you in a clear and comfortable way. This is exactly the year where energies come into your life and go, and you understand things in ways which make perfect sense, but you could never have imagined those meaning, before. I would say that this is a Magical year for you, and, especially if you are a little bit more careful, it will set the foundations of a new and prosperus life.

15- The Devil

Do you feel like you were living in fantasies. Or, maybe, that you do know the truth but it feels so comfortable getting lost in daydreaming and desires. Well this is it. This is the year when you are going to realize that dreaming is good, but sometimes we have to take drastic measures. In other words, make sure you are ready to face the truth you already know. It’s all about the choices you make. Remember that 1+5 equals 6, which is actually associated with the card of the Lovers. Hence, this can be a very fruitful year for you, if you manage to stay grounded.

16- The Tower

The previous year may have been a year that you realize the truth about others and yourself. Hence, you may have felt like you were falling from grace. This is exactly what this is all about. This is the year when you realize that you need to make a clear start, as you have probably been misled in the past. But what’s done is done. Now, you have been given the power to make a new beginning, in every part of your life, career, or in relationships.

17- The Star

Do you feel like you’ve been in the dark the past years? Well this is the year when light returns to you and your life. The star symbolizes hope, optimism and new beginnings. It’s like magic returns in the form of a person, or a promotion, or a healing. Hence, as you already understand, this is actually a lucky year for you, especially if you manage to keep an eye on opportunities and chances. Also, be aware of synchronicities, for, as we’ve said, magic returns in your life.

18- The Moon

You are advised to be steady and patient during this year. The coming 12 months you will realize that emotions are blessings, but they can also drive you in dangerous paths. Banish the fear and negativity from your heart, and embrace the wholeness of the moon. This is a card that implies fertility, healing and abundance. Also, this year promises you powerful magic.

19- The Sun

This is a very important year for you, as you can understand from the good vibes that come out just by looking at this card. You have a lot to expect. But what’s even more important, is to realize the depth and the accuracy of your desires. You see, you’ll be given amazing opportunities in the next 12 months. But ask yourself what is that you truly want? If you carry this feeling with you, the Universe will help you step by step.

20- Judgement

An intense year and a very powerful one. Things are finally coming alive – your dreams and plans. There is so much power in you for the next 12 months. However, you need to find a proper way to express this power and direct it in a creative way. What is extremely important for you to know, is that energy is here for a reason. Do not waste it in anger and anxiety. Direct it to give life in your dreams. Because guess what? Now you can!

21- The World

This is the absolute karmic year. During the next 12 months you’re going to realize that what you’ve tried in the past years, what you’ve worked for, is not lost. Nothing is lost. Whatever leaves, can come back – maybe in another form. Hence, be aware that this year signals completion, success and the closing of a circle of experiences. However, this is not the end. Because when one door closes, another one opens! Be prepared for new experiences!

22- The Fool

The Fool is nothing but a fool. He is full of surprises and more importantly he is full of faith. As this card implies, during the next months you’re going to be blessed by the higher powers, which are going to guide you in a new circle of experiences. During the next 12 months, be very careful of opportunities and be ready not to give in to fear. Make your heart lighter. Banish sadness. Embrace your great new destiny which now begins!

Archeologist claims: Cleopatra’s tomb maybe found!

One of the most important and mysterious figures of human history is surely Cleopatra. Descending from a Greek lineage of kings – she ruled Egypt as a beloved Pharaoh. Last dynasty of Egypt and the last of the Ptolemaic Dynasty, the death of Cleopatra meant the end of ancient Egypt, as from this time it was known as Roman Empire. But where is she buried? Where is Cleopatra’s tomb?

Where is Cleopatra’s tomb?

Many historians have tried to figure out where she was buried. According to historic resources the last Pharaoh of Egypt have killed herself because she didn’t want to fall in the hands of their enemies in 30 BC. Despite the newest groundbreaking evidence found, Cleopatra continues to escape archaeologists, as her last resting place is probably one of the most spectacular findings in human history.

But not Kathleen Martinez. This woman claims her quest could be nearing its end, after having spent the past 15 years searching for the tomb of Cleopatra.  She believes her tomb is located in Taposiris Magna. This a magnificent temple, dedicated to Goddess Isis, who Cleopatra adored so much. Moreover, in July 2020, archaeologists discovered burial chambers of two royals that would have lived with Cleopatra between 69 and 30 BC.

Excited? Well we are! We may be right before the discovery of something truly amazing. After all, as Kathleen Martinez stated: “So, if we can discover the tomb of Cleopatra or any one of her Ptolemaic predecessors, Taposiris Magna could be the Greek version of the Valley of the Kings.” Hence, we call upon Goddess Isis, to shine!

Your Shadow Archetype based on your Zodiac Sign

Your Shadow is one of the most important bodies you possess. You see, according to ancient Egyptians and of course Witchcraft, we possess several bodies. Hence, besides our physical body, we’ve got an immortal soul, our astral body and our Shadow (amongst others). To better understand your shadow, imagine all the qualities you possess but you consciously avoid to accept and/or embrace them. Therefore, your shadow archetype describes your potential that is hidden beyond your fear to accept your wholeness.

In our School of Witchcraft, Davina explains in detail what your Shadow is and how to recognise and also work with it. But for now let’s focus on your shadow archetype. We’ve seen in detail the Shadow Element you are born with. Now, it’s time to proceed with your Shadow Archetype.

Shadow Elements and Shadow Archetypes are original work of Magical Recipes Online. Share the wisdom with mention. Blessed be

Aries: the Traitor

Pride and might is what fuels the vital energy of Aries. It is almost impossible not to find an Aries who can always find something they are proud of what they’ve succeeded. They are the heroes of the Zodiac. A true Aries can sacrifice him/herself for others. However, there are times, dark times, when fear wins that they think of unspeakable things for them. Aries have strong moral codes and when they think of breaking them – this terrifies them. It terrifies the fact from a beloved warrior they can turn to a traitor. These dark thoughts become a burden for them.

You have to understand that fearing of something restrains your creativity. Also, it might attract it too – because remember. What we strongly fear – we usually attract too! Hence, please stop being afraid you might betray someone, because you end up betraying yourself. Accept the fact that as human you may think or ask mistakenly. Don’t be afraid of that moment. Of course take precautions but also be ready to fix it. Embrace the dark archetype within you!

Taurus: the Betrayed one

Sharing and giving has always been your rule. What you ask for is probably humanely impossible. Unconditional acceptance, love and attention? Really? Deep inside you know that what you ask is too much, but it’s probably the closest we have to divine. Remember, humans are divine in nature but also live in divinely beautiful yet faulty world at the same time. Sometimes, we make wrong choices because that’s the way we learn. Your shadow archetypes is the betrayed one.

The one who has been disappointed by others. But that hurts not because they disappointed you. This hurts because you’ve put your hopes on them. Remember, you have the right to judge incorrectly and others have also the right to make mistakes. Embrace the fact that you may be betrayed – as you might also betray someone’s trust. We fix, what can be fixed and we move on!

Gemini: the Trickster

It’s well known that you have a bad reputation for being two-faced. We both know that this is not true. But as many stereotypes, this also comes from a lie. And the worst lies are the ones we tell to ourselves. That’s what you do. Regularly. You rush to decisions and you judge instantly. This might bring you to false roads. A trickster is firstly a false prophet. The one who predicted incorrectly and followed this prediction no matter what.

Gemini is the sign who comes to close to his/her shadow archetype from a very young age. However, what you need to do, is try to take a step back when you are about to decide. Try to think as a different person. Abolish the illusions. That’s what usually make a trickster, the illusions and the lies that haunts him/her. Free yourself and truth will prevail.

Cancer: the Hag

You have the power of the Moon. Artemis (Diana), the Goddess of the Moon prevails on your life and your personality. This is the archetype of the Mother. Mother is pure love. So the shadow of this archetype what else can be than hate! Ideally, mothers are the personification of love and acceptance. But, as we all know, often this is not the case. So there are times that you feel  can be strict, uncaring or even wicked. Just like the wicked hags of fairytales. These are almost always neglected women whose anger drives them to do unspeakable things.

Black hearts are often voids of power. When your emotions are imbalanced you subconsciously drain the energy around you to fill this void. Of course, a void can never be filled. Hence, the outcome is catastrophic. The longer you postpone acknowledging this the worse is the damage for you and around you.

Leo: the Tyrant

Your Zodiac Sign is the king of all signs. When you are born into this world you feel you inherit the royal power in your aura. A true ruler though needs to be sober. However, sometimes we may lose control of our emotions and things might get weird. This is when you no longer act as a king, but like a tyrant instead.

A tyrant is the one who rules with strictness and without compassion. S/he may be right but the way authority is established is through force and not respect. A true king is respected. Embrace the fact that you may not always be in control of your emotions. Remember. It’s not, not to feel ok. You can’t always be perfect. Once you manage to understand that then you will have the ability to deal with your emotions in a better way.

Virgo: the Slave

Your zodiac sign, is the one which always tries to serve in the best way possible. When you help, when you create, you feel wonderful as you fulfil your magical purpose. Hence, you always find yourself thinking ways to do more, or work more or maybe serve (your purpose) more. It’s not just a wish. No, it’s more. It’s a need you a born with. However, many times working absurd hours may lead to absolute energy depletion. You feel exhausted. This is why you need to be very careful not to push yourself to your limits.

You are a human being with many dark corners because you choose only to work with the one you feel comfortable with. Why? Because you don’t “want to lose time” with things you are not good at. But dear, that’s what we call overcorrection. Remember, over-analysis brings paralysis. Embrace your wholeness. You don’t always need to be perfect. Remember, what you are now perfect in took you many “try and errors”. It’s ok to try these dark and dusty corners of yourself. Don’t become a slave. Become happy!

Libra: the Ghost

Your zodiac sign is the one that always tries to find balance between difficult situations and frustrated people. Hence, your need for peace may often lead you to not express yourself – at least not in the most potent way – because you are afraid of bringing more tension. This makes you lose yourself and feel like “nobody”. A shallow ghost. We both know though, you are so much more than this.

Well yes. Mayhem is a possibility – whether you try hard or not. It may be your fault, it may not. Hence, you can’t lose yourself. Most importantly you shouldn’t blame yourself for any inconvenience that occurs. Express your heart and this may solve more problems than causing the,

Scorpio: the Fugitive

Your zodiac sign has a passion for secrets. It is also said that Scorpios have came into this world, making Death their best friends. This is why they are considered the most capable survivors of the Zodiac Circle. However, your habit of fleeing from certain (unfinished) situations may bring a greater uncertainty in your life. Hence, you may feel broken. Alive, but broken. Like a fugitive. Illegal but free and alive.

What you don’t realize is that you rarely need to flee. You are more capable than you think. Yes, getting hurt is a possiblity but healing is also available. You’ve got so much power in you that may scare you. Embrace this power.

Sagittarius: the Mocker

Your zodiac sign has a rebel heart. You are born to be free. Live freely, think freely. This of course crashes in the world’s false rules and material priorities. This is why you love to trav so much. Your deepest need is to find a Shangri-la,  a utopia where everything is true and your faith is restored.

This is why sometimes, after thinking, searching and travelling alot, you find yourself wondering if there’s anything real in this world. This is what may turn you into a mocker. Well, this cannot be pretty. However, challenging stereotypes is very important and useful in this world. It’s what helps us evolve and change.

Capricorn: the Overthrown

Your Zodiac Sign was always meant to hold great power. But – as you all know – with great power comes great responsibility. You may hurt others, you may hurt yourself. That’s ok with you, because you are fair and once you realize your mistakes you have the guts to seek for forgiveness. What really scares you the most is to be overthrown, to lose your power, to start again from zero.

We all know how difficult it was to get all this power. Most Capricorns are trying since childhood to reach a better life. It takes time, it takes energy. Hence, it’s very difficult to accept that you may need to start again. Although, this is rarely the care, you must accept the fact that in life, ups and downs are part of the game. You have both the guts and the means to reclaim this Power again and again. So embrace the “overthrown” shadow archetype.

Aquarius: the Uninvited

Your Zodiac Sign was born to be different than the others. You live for freedom and the ability to keep thinking out of the box. That’s exactly what saves you but also what traps you into irrational thinking sometimes. You see, although you were always able to comminicate with even the most difficult people, you see yourself as an outlaw when your emotions are out of balance. Your shadow archetype is the misfit, who is always unwelcome, uninvited. And that scares you.

However, what scares you is what you most like desire at some point. Being a misfit is not that bad if other are unable to appreciate your amazing skills and your otherwordly aura. But that’s ok. Judging from how most people act right now, to think differently is a gift for humanity. So embrace your different skills, your exotic genes. That’s what makes you so perfect.

Pisces: the Illusionist

Your Zodiac Sign holds such a great magical potential. You are born to visualize the future of this world, materializing dreams and divine patterns. Hence, you are considered the fairy children of this world, brought by the Gods to filter all the evils of this world. However, sometimes, when you are brutally grounded, you usually are in denial. That’s when it hits you. You feel that instead of accepting the truth, the sad truth, you choose to create illusions in which you love to live in.

Moreover, your shadow archetypes is someone who not just chooses illusions than reality, but also creates them and also tries to take more people in them. What you need to understand, is that the illusions are sometimes precious and helpful. It’s ok to dream, daydream and/or visualize a better world. But you are born in this one. So embrace your dreams, acknowledge your illusions, yet try to live in this world. Do not exile yourself from reality. Even if it’s awful sometimes.

Astrological Voids – Missing Elements in your Birth Chart

According to the ancient Art of Astrology, the time and place of one birth sets the foundation for all predictions. Hence, the Birth Chart is a mirror of one’s powers, secret flaws, consciousness and fate. Every planet and zodiac sign is associated with one of the four elements of magic. These are Fire, Water, Air and Earth. In most charts, there is a seemingly balance between the elements is the planets and celestial bodies are scattered around the zodiac circle. However, in some cases there are astrological voids. This means that there are missing elements in the birth chart.

What are Astrological Voids?

For astrologers, astrological voids can predict a lot. But first things first. What is an Astrological Void? Astrological Voids occur when there are no planets in elemental group of Zodiac Sign. Before you continue, CLICK HERE to cast your Free Birth Chart.

  • For example, you’ve got a Fire Void if you have no planets in Aries, Leo or Sagittarius.
  • You have a Water Void if you have no planets in Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces.
  • You have Earth Void if you have no planets in Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn.
  • And Finally you have Air Void if you have no planets in Gemini, Libra or Aquarius.

CLICK HERE to cast your Free Birth Chart.

So what does it mean with Missing Elements?

Most astrologers believe that the absence of an Element creates a void, which attracts some powerful energies in this individual. Because everyone lusts is to find purpose, a missing element can indicate what a person thirsts. However, some others that even  though the previous definition is true, this happens because this element is a given – an accomplishment – a lesson already learned, as the individual has mastered this element in a Past Live.

Either way, an Astrological Void (Elemental Void) is a very powerful indicator and means a lot for each individual.

Elemental Void of Earth: No Roots needed.

This Astrological Void indicates an individual with no (or just less important) planets in Taurus, Virgo or Capricorn. Hence, this individual feels like is ever moving. It’s like these individuals have no material attachments and money just happens to them. They don’t feel the need to save money or buy houses and property cause they somehow manage to conjure ideas which help them materialise what they need.

  • In dark times, Elemental Void of Earth can make them feel utterly unsupported, as if there is nothing to protect them. They feel exposed, or to use a better word “nude”.
  • They may fear that they can never have enough money. At the same time they may work overtime to try and materialise at least something. Thankfully this doesn’t last long.

Elemental Void of Air: A Whole Picture yet different.

This Astrological Void indicates an individual with no (or just less important) planets in Gemini, Libra or Aquarius. Hence, this individual feels like a blind person, yet with the capacity to see beyond sight, as if s/he gets the whole picture of multidimentional reality. Furthermore, they may have trouble in communicating their thoughts or deal with basic tasks – others consider supereasy, but they somehow perceive the reality in more profound and deep way.

  • In dark times, Elemental Void of Air can push them into the awareness of their “blindness” in many ways (for example social handicap), as if they cannot cope with what they see or hear. This can alienate them.
  • They can be overthinking about a subject – diving extremely deep in a topic. On the other hand they can easily scatter amongst topics without being able to touch the essence of them. Thankfully this doesn’t last long.

Elemental Void of Water: Can’t control the emotions

This Astrological Void indicates an individual with no (or just less important) planets in Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces. Hence, these individual believes that s/he has all feelings under surveillance and the truth is that in most cases s/he is very capable in that. Therefore, they are self-sufficient and independent people. On the other hand they may also seem incapable of true intimacy as their constant need to hide the complete extent of their feelings drive them away from deep relations. They may become uncaring when they over-suppress their emotion.

  • In dark times, Elemental Void of Water can attract extremely strong emotional experiences just to remind them that Water can be calm yet also extremely turbulent. These experiences push these individuals to their limits.
  • However, they can also become over caring – draining their energy to unworthy people.Thankfully this doesn’t last long.

Element Void of Fire: Beacon of Inspiration

This Astrological Void indicates an individual with no (or just less important) planets in Cancer, Scorpio or Pisces. Hence, these individuals may suffer from lack of enthusiasm and fire passion but they tend to attract people around them with strong fiery energy. Their life’s path is not filled with roses but they have a natural ability to overcome problems like no one. This is exactly why they attract fire-people as those are inspired by their personality traits. Later, these people will support and nurture Fire Void individuals by giving them back faith.

  • In dark times, Elemental Void of Fire can show strong signs of pessimism like there is no light in their life. However, they can see clearly how much they achieved and what strong problems they’ve overcome!
  • They can be lethargic at some times, unwilling to take action. Or they can be over jumpy, acting without thinking and choosing falsely. Thankfully this doesn’t last long.

Perseid Meteor Shower 2021 – Tonight It Will Rain Stars & Fireballs!

Star Magic & the Ways of the Stars: Perseid Meteor Shower 2021 will peak on August 12 and 13. We expect a spectacular number of falling stars and fireballs without the Moonlight! Tonight, it will rain stars … AND FIREBALLS!

The Perseid Meteor Shower 2021 – the Most interesting one?

Perseids meteor shower is considered the most interesting one. Last years Perseids were amazing. It rained 80-100 falling stars per hour. In 2016 the rate was increased by 150 up to 200 beautiful falling stars per hour. Nature has scheduled a show that we should not miss.

The moon is extremely favorable for the Perseids this year as we’re in the New Moon phase, with a young crescent Moon.  Hence, the moonlight is not going to spoil much of Nature’s  unique show, as the Perseids are very bright plus very rich in fireballs that will brighten up the sky in a magical way.  So tonight, we are going to enjoy the most spectacular show of Nature!

Though sporadic shooting stars adorn the dark sky on any given night of the year, meteor showers are usually annual events with really impressive magical impact. This meteor shower derives its name from the constellation Perseus, because the meteors seem to stream from this realm of the sky.

Star Magic and Star Witches

Witchcraft of the Stars has always been considered powerful and it dates back to the ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. In fact, Star Magic is considered one of the oldest and most powerful forms of Magic. A Star Magician taps into the powers of the Stars in order to collect and direct the energy of the Stars.

One “branch” of Star Magic is Astrology, the art of foretelling the Future by knowing the ways of the Stars. An ancient Mage would never distinguish Witchcraft from Astrology as the system was born and evolved together as one. The Three Wise Men who predicted the coming of Jesus Christ were in fact Powerful Mages from Mesopotamia who studied the ways of the Stars.

Becoming a Star Mage or a Star Witch one must begin to know the ways of the Stars. In Magical Recipes Online we’ll give you tons of Lessons on Astrology and in Star Magic too. Another thing about Stars Magic is that’s so fun! We love looking at the night sky. It connects us wit the divine.

The Magic of Perseids

In Star Witchcraft, these nights are very important because:

  • Legend has it that Perseid Meteor shower is literally magical fire.
  • Ptolemy has associated it with the Powers of Jupiter and Saturn combined!
  • Witches used it to bring hope (and Light) back into their hearts as the energy of these nights are similar to the Winter Solstice! (Return of the Sun king).
  • The Stars of the Constellation and the meteors coming from it are used in Protection Spells and to Break Jinxes and Curses. Hence,  one can use to break free from the Dark Arts.

Many legends and stories are associated with Perseus and the Perseids.

  • In Ancient Greece Perseus is slayer of the powerful gorgon Medusa and rescuer of Queen Cassiopeia. Perseus son of Zeus took her head and gave it to Olympus only to become the powerful shield of Goddess Athena. Perseus was believed to ride the magnificent winged horse, Pegasus.
  • In India the constellation is associated with Mitra, the Sun God.
  • The same applies to some Persian stories & Zarathustra.

Some Catholics refer to the Perseids as the “tears of Saint Lawrence” who was burnt alive, suspended in the sky but returning to earth once a year.

The Celestial Mage

Ptolemy, the Greek founder of Modern Astorlogy & Astronomy, wrote that the Gods peer down at the earth from between the Celestial spheres.

star magic

The Celestial spheres (or cosmic spheres, or celestial orbs) were the fundamental entities of the cosmological models developed by Plato, Aristotle, Ptolemy and later Copernicus and others. In these celestial models the apparent motions of the planets and the other stars are accounted for “by treating them as embedded in rotating spheres made of an aetherial, transparent fifth element – aka quintessence – like bright gems set in orbs. Ptolemy stated that while this happens, stars sometimes slip out of this gap, flashing towards the earth. Shooting stars are hence an indication that the Gods are now paying attention to whatever you would ask for.

How to Wish upon a Shooting Star?

The Progress of performing the simple – and maybe the most famous – Wish Spell is the same as all spells.

  1. Close you eyes and Relax
  2. Meditate on things you Wish to have.
  3. Now focus to things that your heart desire the most. Things that set you on Fire!
  4. Narrow down your wishes to only one, your most important wish.
  5. Stay focused on your Wish. Live it as it already happened!
  6. Open your eyes and wait for the Shooting star. Once you see it Re-Live it one more time quickly!
  7. Thank the Divine Forces that helped you!

Blessed be!

Full Moon in Aquarius July 23/24 – Time to Design the New Paradigm Davina Mackail

Full Moon in Aquarius July 23/24 – Time to Design the New Paradigm Davina Mackail

Full Moon in Aquarius July 23/24: Full moon in Aquarius this Friday/Saturday depending on time zone. The first of two full moons in Aquarius. Time to embrace the inner rebel and the outer paradigm shift that human consciousness is clamouring for.  Awakeners, disrupters, change agents and visionaries – THIS is your moment.  A double full moon in Uranus-ruled Aquarius is doubling the cosmic drive for an innovative, cutting-edge approach to pretty much everything.  Aquarius embraces the paradox of this AND that by being highly individual AND collaborative at the same time—just the energy we need to redefine our relationship to self and each other.

Often referred to as the ‘thunder moon’ this lunation also falls in the second degree of Aquarius, whose Sabian symbol is ‘an unexpected thunderstorm.’  With the Sun having just birthed itself from the womb of watery Cancer into its own home of fiery Leo we find ourselves in the midst of fixed Air meeting fixed Fire. Spontaneous combustion is possible, particularly on the Global stage.  Watch closely! When the sparks die down, what creative phoenixes are we calling forth from the ashes?

Full Moon in Aquarius July 23/24

Despite its cool, eccentric nature, the water-bearer is the carrier of the collective consciousness. Its deepest desire is philanthropic and humanitarian. It wants to heal the world and for everyone to thrive. It knows that for this to happen we need to embrace diversity and technological advances.  It is no coincidence that the heralded ‘Age of Aquarius’ coincides with the greatest advances in the technosphere. Just last month, not one but two individuals made it into space. While that is only within reach of the super-rich today, their dream is to make it available to all.

Aquarius’s superpower is its ability to allow our authentic, imperfect selves to flourish in collective belonging. Birthing a world where we genuinely celebrate difference and can embrace all. Airy Aquarius abhors convention.

This double dose of Uranus-fuelled lunar power asks us to accept ourselves, warts and all.  Check out all the ways you try to fit in or suppress your true feelings.  Yes, it could get a little explosive as you begin to peek above the parapet, but the long-term benefits far outweigh the short-term discomforts.  Friends and family may not initially support your views but don’t let their insecurities dampen your enthusiasm. Ultimately, the water-bearer’s motto is ‘live and let live’ – ALL are welcome, all opinions are worth considering, no idea is too weird.  If we can open our humanitarian hearts to embrace this inclusive cosmic gift, bolts of inspired genius will surely result.

Full Moon in Aquarius July 23/24: A Utopian Vision?

Got a Utopian vision? An unconventional dream? A quirky invention? Dust it off, share it with friends, experiment and play.  Use the coolness of Aquarius’s objectivity to collaborate, communicate, invent and innovate.  Let the winds of change blow through. When in doubt choose the road less travelled, trust your authentic self and lead us all to pastures new with hope, optimism and humanitarian teamwork.  Let the (r)evolution begin!

Wishing you all infinite full moon love.

Full Moon Ritual

Full Moon in Aquarius July 23/24 Ritual: With the elements of fire and air egging each other on under the influence of this full moon we need to keep a cool head and an objective view.  To do this practise 4 element breathing to keep your system in balance.

It is good to start and end your day with a few minutes of this breath technique you can also use it whenever you feel stressed, overwhelmed or unheard.

Take a pause, maybe place a hand on your heart to reconnect with yourself, notice your surroundings, settle more deeply into your body and…..

Inhale for a count of 4, hold for a count of 4, exhale for a count of 4 and hold for a count of 4… continue the same pattern for at least 9 rounds.

Let your breathing settle back into its normal pattern for a moment or two before continuing with your day.

Winter Solstice – Grand Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn 2020

Winter Solstice – Grand Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn 2020

Winter Solstice – Grand Conjunction of Jupiter and Saturn 2020. The Cosmic wheel is turning. As 2020, the year of ‘double judgment’ draws to a close we find ourselves poised on the Wheel of Fortune. Which way will the wheel spin? Where shall we place our bets? Right now, we simply don’t know. Global changes are symbolized by the non–personal outer planets, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune, and Pluto. The Jupiter Saturn Grand Conjunction happens every 20 years. The last in 2000, ushered in a whole new century. This one heralds an entirely new paradigm shift.

Grand Conjunction & Winter Solstice

Just one degree of separation makes tomorrow’s solstice conjunction a visually spectacular event –just after sunset, Jupiter and Saturn will appear as an elongated star in the early evening sky. Many believe the same conjunction gave rise to The Star of Bethlehem that signified the birth of Christ. The current resurrection invites us to reclaim our own power, as all the prophecies predict. This time, there is no external saviour. Aquarius is all about power of the people. If we value our democracies, our health, our liberties and right to evolve we can no longer hand responsibility to others to look after us. The time of being rescued by governments; family; partners etc is done. In the new paradigm ‘we are the ones we have been waiting for’.

For the first time in 200 years the conjunction takes place in the element of Air rather than Earth. The summer solstice (northern hemisphere) at 0 degrees cancer was the great reset, the pause button asking us to reflect deeply on what ‘home’ means to us. Now the winter Solstice (northern hemisphere) in the first degree of Capricorn meeting the Grand Conjunction at 0 degrees Aquarius brings us to the ouroboros of simultaneous death and rebirth. Death to the old, staid, stuck, resource extraction, power and control, military industrial complex of the hierarchical patriarchy and birth of the futuristic, technologically innovative, humanitarian, community spirited, libertarian spirit of the water bearer. The Capricorn goat has reached its mountain peak of ‘power over’ and finally the icy caps of control start to melt as it realises it’s lonely at the top. These trickles of fresh water will eventually fill the urn of Aquarius and lead to the inspirational innovation humanity so desperately needs. The female water bearer is here to pour new life on the parched earth, nourish our dreams, and enable us to see beyond the limitations of the rational, logical mind. As Einstein said we cannot solve our problems with the thinking we used to create them. We need the winds of change that this conjunction is bringing to generate new thinking, new ideas, new ways of communicating.

Predictions by Davina MacKail

Endings & Beginnings

But remember a conjunction brings both the end and a new beginning. This is an initiation, the birth, the spark – NOT the endgame. A big unknown is upon us that will not stabilise into the new for several years. We are crossing a threshold, a liminal space between one state and another. A powerful portal, a chasm that asks us to be clear and centred in our intentions – what are we going to allow to die and what do we intend to breathe into life? We need to remember that the planets don’t do anything they are simply signifiers, signposts pointing the way. We have to choose to walk the untrodden path.

Re-modelling Earth

We’re re-modelling our planetary home and with the shift into the air element it will be a wild ride ahead. Air is the only invisible element. We know of its existence by its results. We feel the breeze on our cheek, we see the trees sway and the leaves blow. Aquarius is also ruled by the futuristic and visionary Uranus, the planet of surprise, the unexpected. We won’t see what’s coming neither the storms nor the becalmed seas, but we will live the effects. Air can blow up, blow out, whisper and inspire. We can live for days without food and even water but without air we last minutes. We are birthed on the inhalation; we die on the exhalation. This new paradigm is riding in on the global tsunami of enforced restrictions on our breath through mask wearing and the virus itself which is air borne and affects our ability to breathe.

For the first time after centuries in element of Air

What lies ahead as we ride the waves of chaos? What will help us breathe and expand into the strong contractions of birthing the new earth? Aquarius is progressive, original, independent and humanitarian. It balks at limitations and broken promises and can be temperamental and distant. It can forsake the individual for the greater good of the group (expect some powerful and swift changes of global leadership in the coming months and years).

Yet this sign’s dispassionate intellect allows both sides of the argument to be seen. We will move out of the divide and conquer energy of the death throes of 2020 into a collective listening that allows solutions to emerge. Air is the inspirational element of new possibilities. It rustles the leaves of the collective community, enjoying the intellectual stimulation of ‘group think’. Ultimately this paradigm shift contains the seed of freedom and equality for all. The shift from ‘power over’ (dominion) to the true ‘power of relationship with’ – the acceptance of each sentient beings’ sovereign divinity.

Be Awake

Ride the stormy seas by staying present, awake, conscious. Use the breath, consciously to pause before acting, to drop into the heart centre to speak from our core. It is time to connect to your inner power, inner wisdom, to recognize we are all one. Celebrating our common unity in diversity. It is the age of moving from Me to We as we embrace the paradoxes of this AND that, away from this OR that.

When these energies combine, between powerhouse Jupiter, expansion and Saturn, contraction we experience a major ideological reset. This conjunction ushers in an era of lighter, faster, globalisation, technology and innovation. Aquarius is a symbol of globalisation – the power to lead the community to ensure survival of the species. The power of the group is KEY.

This affects us all!

This is a transpersonal conjunction. We cannot control it, like we cannot control the weather. We have to trust the Divine unfolding and stay in the centre – myself, my family, my circle, my network. By standing strong in our sovereign self the ripples in our personal pond will eventually influence the outer shores.

Right now, we are still in the process of tearing apart, tearing down. Governments, institutions and law enforcement are the domains of Capricorn. Corporations, social movements, human rights courts and uprisings are the domain of Aquarius. In our current paradigm the false prophet of money still holds the power. 2020 has shown us clearly that the power axis has shifted, from governments to corporations’ lobbyists; big pharma etc and governments are having to capitulate.

Portal is Opening

We’re at the starting gates – the race is on; it’s likely to be explosive. Supressed air blows up. Uranus, ruler of Aquarius is forcing the emergence of our collective shadow. The id(entity) has opened Pandora’s box and there is still much collective purging to be done. But inspiration, ideas and wisdom are also carried on the wings of Spirit. The more we can keep our frequency high, the more we will be able to utilise this conjunction to empower us to bring our dreams of a better world into reality.
What we begin now has incredible staying power. This is the resurrection into self-governance and building the dream. It is time to reclaim our Planetary home in our own name. Aquarius tells us this planet belongs to ALL of us. Are you going to stand up and stake your claim or fall prey to the dementors currently trying to suck the soul out of humanity? A Great Conjunction represents a time for you to release old habits in order to make way for the new. If you are resistant to change, it can feel uncomfortable. But if you breathe into the closed places, you can make incredible progress toward dreams you’ve held onto for a long time. The expansive nature of Jupiter and the structure of Saturn are conjoining to help us accomplish something that may have felt like a fantasy before but is now totally within our grasp.

Use your Breath

We are high vibrational beings of light and immense, limitless power. Breath it in, claim it, own it, be it before someone else does. Use the power of Air, our breath, to take deep conscious, connected belly breaths regularly throughout the day. Inhaling the new, the positive the inspired, exhaling, the old, the stuck, the heavy. What you call in now will have far reaching effects so set some big juicy intentions for 2021 and beyond. Let’s ride this cosmic wave together, one breath, one family, one planet. With so much love and solstice blessings to you all and in the somewhat modified words of my dear friend Swamiji “take a breath, breathe in, open your heart, SPEAK UP, SPEAK OUT”.

 

Magical Pomander Balls for a Blessed Solstice and New Year

Magical Pomander Balls for a Blessed Solstice and New Year

Beloved ones you may have started your preparations for a blessed Yule and fortunately looking forward to a Merrier New Year leaving behind the challenges that this year posed to all humanity. We are going to look at a creative and fun activity on how to create a magical pomander ball, a magical charm to bring blessings for the new Year. Pomander balls were created by witches for many reasons and the process is similar. This recipe is for a charm to bring blessing and act as a reminder of the Warmth of the Sun during the cold winter.

Pomander Balls: Phase 1

Ingredients:

A firm round orange with no bruises

A large needle

Cloves

Find an orange which has no external bruises or signs of decay. Choose an orange that looks bright and smells perfectly for you. On a Sunday, use the needle to pierce the skin of the orange and using circular moves open small round holes. Don’t go too deep in the skin, you want to avoid getting too deep reaching the flesh. Pierce in each hole a clove and try to have each clove touching each other forming circles around the orange. Once the fruit is covered with cloves let it dry out in a dry place preferably in a paper bag for at least 2 weeks, change the paper bag if needed. After two weeks prepare the following.

Pomander Balls: Phase 2

Ingredients:

2 teaspoons of ground cinnamon

1 teaspoon of finely chopped bay leaves (use scissors)

1 teaspoon of ground cloves

1 teaspoon of ground nutmeg

1/2 teaspoon of orris root (you can use up to 1 teaspoon if you prefer)

Create a powder mix of the above. Please the orange in a large towel (or paper towel) and sprinkle the dust on the orange, repeating with any dust that has fallen off ensuring to cover the entire orange. Alternatively you can roll the orange on the powder but do this gently – I still advice to use the first method. Once finished let the orange sit for another 7-10 days. You should decorate the orange with a red or golden ribbon. When tying the orange say the following:

‘Ribbons of Gold now bring Good Luck,
Prosperity and Happiness follow my path.”

If you want to hang the ball I suggest to put the fruit in a square of netting to avoid any accidents. You can tie the ribbons at the top of the netting following the same.

You can tie the ball near a window or leave it as a decoration on the table. For extra potency place it on your alter during your Yule celebrations and leave it as long as you like.

If the orange goes bad for any reason do not worry. It has served another purpose absorbing any negativity. Simply bury it in the ground and saying:

“Orange of Gold, thank you for your Gifts.
Buried in this Earth, all negativity now leaves.
Renewed by the Sun, only blessings I find on my path.”

Choose an Ancient Ring

Rings have always been adorned and worn by most human beings since the dawn of civilization. There are many reasons why a ring is worn. And this is exactly the meaning of this article. As these ancient Rings have been worn for specific reasons they are drenched by a certain feeling – a vibe, a need! The light from these photos radiate the magical currents of the item like a Psychometric Test. So, choose an ancient Ring… and see what it means.

Rings in Magic

According to Magic, a ring is a symbol of power. It is associated with Time and the Wholeness because a circle is the ‘Perfect Shape’ of alchemists. The Ring is also associated with Uroboros, the snake that bites its tail. Witches, Wizards and alchemists now that each finger has a special association with a magical quality. See here more on how to Wear a Ring according to your need!

Choose an Ancient Ring…

Choose an Ancient Ring

Clear your mind and choose instinctively a ring.

1. Memento Mori

This an ancient Ring worn in Roman Empire. As these rings were pretty common they feature the same pattern over and over again. Hence, you can see a skull on top and sometimes written the ‘mantra’ known in ancient Rome as “memento mori” which actually means “remember you will die one day”. Therefore, what you need to remember right now is to leave your life and free yourself from the prison of past traumas and disappointments. Nothing can truly hold you back apart from yourself. Move on!

2. Mood Ring

This was ring which utilised a thermochromic liquid crystal which changes from our body’s temperature. In the ancient times this was used to ‘monitor’ mood changes. Hence, what you are feeling right now is a need for balance as you may have noticed sever mood swings. Balance will come once you embrace your emotions. Do not fear yourself. Love yourself. Therefore, remember that your emotions are your secret power. Also, practice grounding!

3. Mourning Ring

You’ve chosen a classic mourning ring. Typically, this type of rings were created in remembrance of something or someone a person lost. Sometimes, the ring included a part of the person who died like some hair. Hence, you’ve probably chosen this ring as you still mourn for something, someone or a past trauma. What needs to be learned here is that in this Realm we may lose people, objects or get traumatised by accidents or hurtful situations. We should move on. However, nothing is lost as we are energy. Energy endures. We live on.

4. Portait Ring

You’ve chosen a ring which was made to immortalise the image of a very powerful person. This has not just to do with the looks. It has to do with power that this person enjoyed at the time of the ring’s forging. However, power – as the looks – can be temporary. You’ve probably chosen this ring as you would love to hold on to an image of yourself in the past. Hence, you need to understand that mortal power may come and go, but the true Power comes from the Spirit and it’s everlasting.

5. Torque

You’ve chosen an emblem of aristocratic descent. A torque was usually warn on the neck or arm to signify that this person is very important. Hence, you’ve probably chosen that ring to help you realise who unique and important you are. Throughout your incarnations you’ve reached high status as royal descendant or maybe as high Priest or Priestess. Remember how important you’ve been and channel this power right now in your life. You are important. Shine again!

6. Chastity Ring

This ring was given by religious groups to signify virginity – of course as a virtue. Virginity means that someone withholds something precious or sacrificed it for a greater good. Furthermore, it may mean initiation or transcendence. Hence, you’ve probably has chosen this ring to show that you feel like you’ve sacrificed something valuable for someone or for some purpose. Was it worth it?

7. Claddagh Ring

This is an ancient Irish & Celtic ring, a token and symbol of friendship or partnership (personal or professional). If you’ve chosen this ring something inside you needs to be expressed through your personal or professional relationships. On the other, you need to understand that you are sufficient yourself. You don’t need anybody. However, people around us are blessings disguised in easy and challenging relationships. In other words, although you are sufficient, it’s good to show and receive love!

8. Key Ring

You’ve chosen an ancient key ring from the Roman Empire. If you look closely you’ll realise a key integrated on the bezel. Romans used to carry this key with them to protect things and people that mattered to them the most. Hence, if you’ve chosen this ring, it may mean that you’ve hidden in your heart something very important for you. Either a memory or a secret feeling, you can’t easily let go. However, what you hide may also keep you behind from growing further. Hence, unlock your powers, set yourself free!

5 Pumpkin Spells

Probably there is no fruit or vegetable more associated with Witchcraft than Pumpkin. It’s magic of course is linked with a very important day for all witches. The Samhain aka Halloween, one of the most important Sabbats. So, as Pumpkins are extremely available out there, let’s make some real magic out of them right? Here are 5 Pumpkin Spells!

So here we go! Ready Witches?

1. Jack o’lantern is Magical Protection ward!

Well, it goes without saying that we could not exclude the Halloween from our Pumpkin Spells. As we learn from the article on Samhain & magic of Halloween, the Irish (and Scottish) carved grotesque faces on potatoes and other vegetables and left them outside of their house. They did it to scare Jack and other malevolent entities. The Irish immigrants found pumpkins much more suitable for carving and so the tradition was established. Of course, another interpretation of the story is that lanterns are being lit to assist wondering souls reach  their destination and that forgiveness is always there for those that seek it.

This year, your Jack o’lantern will act as a magical security ward, driving away malevolent spirits and other tricksters. To do that you just need to keep this in mind while you carve your pumpkin and light the candle in it!

2. Jack o’lantern Love Attraction

The same way you create halloween’s Jack o’lantern, hollow the inside of a pumpkin. Use the inside of the pumpkin as an offering to the Spirits of Love. Place it on plate and let the bird eat it!

Carve a heart on the bottom of the pumpkin to symbolise what you want to attract. Place a red candle (if you want more passionate love) or a pink one (if you want more romance/marriage). Light the candle and visualise the kind of man or woman you want to attract.

3. Pumpkin Wish Spell

On November 1st, right before the Sun is rising, write what you wish to manifest until Springtime on a piece of paper. Make it simple! Once you’ve done with it, fold it thrice and put it in your Jack o’lantern pumpkin. Right before the Sun rises, bury it in your backyard or somewhere where you feel safe.

4. Seeds of Prosperity

Dry the seeds of a pumpkin and add them in a green mojo bag. Of course halloween pumpkin seeds are extra powerful! So don’t wait up. Get a green cloth a put those 7 dried seeds in it. You can put extra charms in it, like lucky coins. Hold it with you for 7 days.

5. Magical Portals

You can use the magic of Pumpkins to open portals and invite powerful spirits to guide you! To do that you can use a pumpkin as an offering to those spirits. How to do that?

On ANY Sabbat (this of course includes October 31), leave a healthy pumpkin in the woods or any other place where animals naturally dwell. Birds and deers for example love them! While you leave it, tell the spirits that you intentionally like to leave this yummy pumpkin for them. Moreover, you can ask for guidance, or tell them what bothers you and ask for help. Leave the place without looking back.

Orionids Meteor Shower 2020

Star Magic, the Ways of the Stars: 2020 Orionids Meteor Shower October 20 – October 22. Tonight, it will rain stars!

Star Magic and Star Witches

Witchcraft of the Stars has always been considered powerful and it dates back to the ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. In fact, Star Magic is considered one of the oldest and most powerful forms of Magic. A Star Magician taps into the powers of the Stars in order to collect and direct the energy of the Stars.

One “branch” of Star Magic is Astrology, the art of foretelling the Future by knowing the ways of the Stars. An ancient Mage would never distinguish Witchcraft from Astrology as the system was born and evolved together as one. The Three Wise Men who predicted the coming of Jesus Christ were in fact Powerful Mages from Mesopotamia who studied the ways of the Stars.

Becoming a Star Mage or a Star Witch one must begin to know the ways of the Stars. In Magical Recipes Online we’ll give you tons of Lessons on Astrology and in Star Magic too. Another thing about Stars Magic is that’s so fun! We love looking at the night sky. It connects us wit the divine.

The Orionid Meteor Shower 2020

One of the year’s most amazing celestial shows will peak Tonight – prior Halloween. Tonight, only few days after the New Moon, the lunar light is minimum and will block the spectacular phenomenon. ! The days when we can enjoy the peak of Orionid Meteor shower are between October 20 and 22!

Why is the Orionids Meteor Shower so magnificent?

The meteors which will illuminate the sky are some of the fastest and brightest among meteor showers as the Orionids originate from the dust and particles left behind by Halley’s Comet. This famous comet orbits the Sun and appears closer to our planet every 75 years.

But as the alien comet dances around the Sun, it leaves behind a trail of star dust. When theses particles join our orbit we see this magnificent show. The Orionids get their name because this meteors seem to explode from the constellation of Orion the Hunter.

The shower is one of the strongest in the astronomical calendar. You will be able to see up to 20 meteors per hour at peak time. See more in Earthsky.org

To enjoy the shower even more, setup your alarm around 4am (or stay away with your buds – family) and watch the shower in the darkest hours before the dawn. See more in timeanddate.com 

The Magic of Orionid Meteor Shower

Legend has it that Orion was a giant hunter, son of the Poseidon, god of all waters. Because he was the son of Poseidon we could walk on the see and all waters. . Orion was such a great hunter that he even believed he could hunt goddess of the Moon and Huntig, Artemis (Diana in latin) along with every beast on Earth (which was also protected by Artemis).

Another version of the story says that Orion accidentally caught sigh of 7 beautiful nymphs – daughters of Atlas and Pleione, the Pleiades, companions of Artemis. He was dazzled by their beauty and begun to chase after them.

In both cases, the Great Goddess of Earth, Gaia intervened. She was furious and sent a giant scorpion to poison and kill Orion. Both Orion and the scorpion put by Zeus in the Stars as constellations. Orion is chasing the Pleiades who is being chased be Scorpio.

Astrology: Of course, this has its own astrological significance. The Meteor shower from Orion – Scorpio – Pleiades is usually a potent omen to be brave go after our goals. Tonight, is the third Quarter of the Moon.  Therefore, it’s a great day to wish you get released from what bothers you!

See tonight’s predictions here!

Big changes are coming to the world along with news which have to do with chemical substances, energy and water. If your job has to do with the above please pay more attention 1. to avoid accidents 2. because this energy boost can help you evolve!

The Celestial Mage

Ptolemy, the Greek founder of Modern Astorlogy & Astronomy, wrote that the Gods peer down at the earth from between the Celestial spheres.

The Celestial spheres (or cosmic spheres, or celestial orbs) were the fundamental entities of the cosmological models developed by Plato, Aristotle, Ptolemy and later Copernicus and others. In these celestial models the apparent motions of the planets and the other stars are accounted for “by treating them as embedded in rotating spheres made of an aetherial, transparent fifth element – aka quintessence – like bright gems set in orbs. Ptolemy stated that while this happens, stars sometimes slip out of this gap, flashing towards the earth. Shooting stars are hence an indication that the Gods are now paying attention to whatever you would ask for.

How to Wish upon a Shooting Star?

The Progress of performing the simple – and maybe the most famous – Wish Spell is the same as all spells.

  • Close you eyes and Relax
  • Meditate on things you Wish to have.
  • Now focus to things that your heart desire the most. Things that set you on Fire!
  • Narrow down your wishes to only one, your most important wish.
  • Stay focused on your Wish. Live it as it already happened!
  • Open your eyes and wait for the Shooting star. Once you see it Re-Live it one more time quickly!
  • Thank the Divine Forces that helped you!

Retrograde Uranus in Taurus: Astrology and Magic

Retrograde Uranus ? On September Uranus will enter Retrograde and this will last until January, and this means it’s effects are going to play a part in our lives the latter half of the year.

When Retrograde Uranus, expect great awakenings. This giant of an ice planet is the ruler of rebellion, freedom and change. Some planets hold a gentle and beneficial retrograde phase, when Retrograde Uranus, we have no such luck, it’s forceful an…d very abrupt. It will not capitulate until we face the changes that are needed in our life, there is no time-outs, or rest, it will make us see what isn’t working, and will make us face it, whether we are ready for change or not.

What to Expect in Retrograde Uranus

It will make us seek answers, answers to questions we may not realised we wanted to ask. Uranus in Retrogrades energy can build and build until it feels like the only option is an explosion of energy, it can be quite hard to navigate through.

There isn’t an area of our life that remains untouched by Retrograde Uranus, barriers and walls will fall and we have to face everything that we’re putting off. The restrictions we normally adhere to will be obliterated, gone. Nothing is out of bounds.

The Retrograde phase of Uranus is may look at the patterns of our life, and we can look into the things we have done, the lessons we have learned that seem to be repeating over and over. Your curiosity won’t be satisfied until you fully understand their purpose. The phrase “(s)he’s like a dog with a bone” comes to mind.

No Excuses with Retrograde Uranus

There are no more excuses with this planet’s retrograde phase. We will be forced to see what we have allowed in our life, and why you keep allowing it. We can “fake” that we are okay in the surface but deep down, we know something is very wrong….this is what we will be forced to come face to face with, and Uranus won’t relent.

With the destructive powers of Retrograde Uranus, we can begin to take account and rebuild our lives. Just because we have become comfortable with life, doesn’t mean it is healthy, or that it is right. It’s time to embrace the drastic transformations that can come with this Retrograde. We shouldn’t let this opportunity pass us by. We have the chance to make the great changes, and to seek truths and understandings that have long eluded us. We all make mistakes, we are all made of darkness and light, he’ll we all mess up from time to time, but there is no need to fear these things, they are part of our living truth.

What to Do in Retrograde Uranus

It’s time to make a U-turn and reflect, then start the journey again, with the knowledge of what happens before. There is a great wisdom in making mistakes, because you know what can go wrong, and you can change it on the second run.

It may feel unnatural and uncomfortable right off the bat, but it won’t be that way forever.

Finding your inner truth, it takes time, and a lot of dreaming hard work. It can throw you curveball after curveball and it can be relentless, but it is worth all the pain, the late and sleepless nights, the confusion and the fear.

It does get easier…. Once you have found the path your feet are destined to follow.

Perseid Meteor Shower 2020 – Tonight It Will Rain Stars & Fireballs!

Star Magic & the Ways of the Stars: Perseid Meteor Shower 2020 will peak on August 11, 12 and 13. We expect a spectacular number of falling stars and fireballs under the Moonlight! Tonight, it will rain stars … AND FIREBALLS!

The Perseid Meteor Shower 2020 – the Most interesting one?

Perseids meteor shower is considered the most interesting one. Last years Perseids were amazing. It rained 80-100 falling stars per hour. In 2016 the rate was increased by 150 up to 200 beautiful falling stars per hour. Nature has scheduled a show that we should not miss.

The moon is relatively favorable for the Perseids this year as we’re in the Last Quarter phase.  Hence, the moonlight is not going to spoil much of Nature’s  unique show, as the Perseids are very bright plus very rich in fireballs that will brighten up the sky in a magical way.  So tonight, we are going to enjoy the most spectacular show of Nature!

Though sporadic shooting stars adorn the dark sky on any given night of the year, meteor showers are usually annual events with really impressive magical impact. This meteor shower derives its name from the constellation Perseus, because the meteors seem to stream from this realm of the sky.

Star Magic and Star Witches

Witchcraft of the Stars has always been considered powerful and it dates back to the ancient Egypt and Mesopotamia. In fact, Star Magic is considered one of the oldest and most powerful forms of Magic. A Star Magician taps into the powers of the Stars in order to collect and direct the energy of the Stars.

One “branch” of Star Magic is Astrology, the art of foretelling the Future by knowing the ways of the Stars. An ancient Mage would never distinguish Witchcraft from Astrology as the system was born and evolved together as one. The Three Wise Men who predicted the coming of Jesus Christ were in fact Powerful Mages from Mesopotamia who studied the ways of the Stars.

Becoming a Star Mage or a Star Witch one must begin to know the ways of the Stars. In Magical Recipes Online we’ll give you tons of Lessons on Astrology and in Star Magic too. Another thing about Stars Magic is that’s so fun! We love looking at the night sky. It connects us wit the divine.

The Magic of Perseids

In Star Witchcraft, these nights are very important because:

  • Legend has it that Perseid Meteor shower is literally magical fire.
  • Ptolemy has associated it with the Powers of Jupiter and Saturn combined!
  • Witches used it to bring hope (and Light) back into their hearts as the energy of these nights are similar to the Winter Solstice! (Return of the Sun king).
  • The Stars of the Constellation and the meteors coming from it are used in Protection Spells and to Break Jinxes and Curses. Hence,  one can use to break free from the Dark Arts.

Many legends and stories are associated with Perseus and the Perseids.

  • In Ancient Greece Perseus is slayer of the powerful gorgon Medusa and rescuer of Queen Cassiopeia. Perseus son of Zeus took her head and gave it to Olympus only to become the powerful shield of Goddess Athena. Perseus was believed to ride the magnificent winged horse, Pegasus.
  • In India the constellation is associated with Mitra, the Sun God.
  • The same applies to some Persian stories & Zarathustra.

Some Catholics refer to the Perseids as the “tears of Saint Lawrence” who was burnt alive, suspended in the sky but returning to earth once a year.

The Celestial Mage

Ptolemy, the Greek founder of Modern Astorlogy & Astronomy, wrote that the Gods peer down at the earth from between the Celestial spheres.

star magic

The Celestial spheres (or cosmic spheres, or celestial orbs) were the fundamental entities of the cosmological models developed by Plato, Aristotle, Ptolemy and later Copernicus and others. In these celestial models the apparent motions of the planets and the other stars are accounted for “by treating them as embedded in rotating spheres made of an aetherial, transparent fifth element – aka quintessence – like bright gems set in orbs. Ptolemy stated that while this happens, stars sometimes slip out of this gap, flashing towards the earth. Shooting stars are hence an indication that the Gods are now paying attention to whatever you would ask for.

How to Wish upon a Shooting Star?

The Progress of performing the simple – and maybe the most famous – Wish Spell is the same as all spells.

  1. Close you eyes and Relax
  2. Meditate on things you Wish to have.
  3. Now focus to things that your heart desire the most. Things that set you on Fire!
  4. Narrow down your wishes to only one, your most important wish.
  5. Stay focused on your Wish. Live it as it already happened!
  6. Open your eyes and wait for the Shooting star. Once you see it Re-Live it one more time quickly!
  7. Thank the Divine Forces that helped you!

Blessed be!

Stages of Zodiac Signs

In Magical Recipes Online, you’ve discovered so much about yourself. You’ve read about your Shadow Element, what’s your body’s Weak Spot (your Achille’s heel) and what are your blessings. Now it’s time to move forward. It’s time to discover, the Stages of Zodiac Signs.

Stages of Zodiac Signs – a Lifespan’s Evolution

You see, the common symbols of the Zodiac Signs, actually describe the first step, the first stage of your evolution. What few know is that this is only the beginning. You evolve. As life goes on, these stages change. Although you still keep your former stage in your heart, you progressively lose touch from it. Hence, as inevitably you attract new stimuli, you change. The only question is towards what? These are the Stages of Zodiac Signs. This is what you should expect.

Exclusively in Magical Recipes Online.

Stages of Aries: Ram, Shephard, Reborn Sun

The Ram. This is the symbol everyone knows about this zodiac sign. Hence, people born under its influence are passionate, conquerors and natural fighters. The Ram is a sacred symbol of many Solar Deities. It shows the potential. A hidden fire within, ever-burning. However, as they grow up, they realize that they engage in too many fights. And worse, not all fights are victorious. They have many casualties and they’ve been reckless and irresponsible. Hence, at some point of their lives, they see the loss. This is why they become…

The Shephard. Grasping the Truth for the first time, they see how pointless it is to engage in rageful quarrels. Their awareness expands. They see what a Shephard sees. A never ending battle which is called life. This is when they turn into themselves. A turning point of their lives. However, it’s not an easy one. You see, a Shephard is lonely, isolated. He is a hermit. At this point, Aries needs time. Time to realise their true potential lies in their passion and not rage. This is when they turn their fire into…

Reborn Sun. Aries is the first symbol of the Zodiac Circle. Why? Because that is when the Nature resurrects from the Death of Winter. In Ancient Egypt, this is the symbol of Aries. The Reborn Sun, symbolizing the Death(s) an individual has to go through, in order to realise his/her true potential. Once you let go of pain, sorrow and rage, you will be reborn with this Ultimate Stage of Aries.

Stages of Taurus: Bull, Minotaur, Demigod

Bull. Taurus, is symbolized by a Bull. But what is the occult meaning of this symbol? As you’ve read many times in our School of Witchcraft, the Bull is a sacred animal in many ancient religions (Egyptian, Indian, Greek). Hence, the Bull symbolized the potentials of Nature. Spring is there and its fierce. Nothing can stop it. There is only one way and this is forward; exactly how a Bull sees its world. However, quite often, due to their lack of ability to see other options, they crash on walls. Those are the obstacles a Taurus is programmed to break and not to surpass. Gradually, they see that they cannot assert their dominance to other people. This is when they become…

Minotaur. This legendary beast, half human with the head of a Bull, is a personification of our instinctive passions which, some times, we think are incompatible with human nature. Shame is a deadly foe. Hence, the Minotaur, haunted by shame and regrets is more stubborn. This is when they are lost in the Labyrinth. Let me remind you that this legendary creature was lying in the dark chambers of a Labyrinth, guarding it. Hence, at this point of their lives, they are enraged, more stubborn than ever, but lost in the dark. This is when Taurus loses hope until they realize, that they’re lost in the Darkness because they chose to! This is when all this power enlightens their spirit, break down the labyrinth and become…

Demigod. This is no sugar-coating it. They truly become divine. Once they sense how powerful their spirit is, they channel it and create miracles. At this point of their lives Taurus perceives his/her power and liberates himself/herself from the boundaries of the physical Realm. However, they still cast miracles on Earth, enjoying satisfaction and beauty, guilt-free.

Stages of Gemini: Twins, Ship, Stars

Twins. The first step of Gemini’s life is drenched with curiosity and love for new experiences. Hence, they seek new stimuli and, as they grow up, they (often successfully) engage in different activities, adopt diverse theories and work in many fields, as if they sense that time is not enough. However, at some point, they realise that there is an empty space in their heart. This comes after a loss, at young age. Hence, they become…

Ship. As the Myth of Gemini tells us, the twin brothers joined the magical quest to find an amazing treasure. Hence, this symbolizes the stage of Gemini when they are bored from their way of living and seek the bigger truth. This quest, however, may be lonely and disappointing, at some point. Hence, most Geminis return to phase one – Twins. However, if they let go of this disappointment, they become…

Stars. This is the final stage of the Zodiac Sign. Once they realise that their inner curiosity for knowledge is simply lust for life, they accept failures and disappointments, they let go of pain and they move forward, expanding their awareness and become a true source of Light. They become Stars!

Stages of Cancer: Crab, Hydra, Peacock

Crab. This is the symbol everyone knows. A creature of the Sea, symbolizing the ‘watery’ nature of this zodiac sign. Due to their rich emotions, they do not always ‘move’ in a logical way, just like the crab doesn’t move in a straight line. Hence, as the sea is never the same, Cancer’s heart changes according to their stimuli around them. However, there are times when the crab’s strong exterior (devotion and loyalty) is crashed by cruelty and betrayal. This is when they become…

Hydra. As you might recall, the Hydras are creatures of the sea, symbolizing (sea’s and) Cancer’s blind rage. When you cut the head of hydra, two more sprout out.  Unfortunately, this shows that when they feel broken they can do terrible things. Trying to stop them is like trying to stop a huge wave of the ocean. It’s pointless. This is a very common stage of Cancer. They change, once they realise that as the Sea is vast, so are the people. Some are mean and hurtful, some are true and loyal. This is when their faith is restored and they become…

Peacock. This is the sacred symbol of Great Mother, Hera, Queen of the Gods. At this stage everyone adores them. Although they don’t intentionally show off, their actions speak for themselves. They are Grace and Blessings impersonated.

Stages of Leo: Lion, Warrior, King

Lion. At first, a typical Leo is born to feel like being the king of the jungle. As if their world belongs to them, inherited by the divine forces. Leo is strong, faithful and passionate. However, at some point in their lives, their authority is questioned and this is when things turn wrong. Rage fills their heart, when they sense that someone can out-throne them. This is when they become…

Warrior.  At this point, all their energy is focused to prove themselves worthy. But worthy of what? What are they fighting for? For many years of their lives they are noble fighters in a war they did not choose. They are lost in elusive goals and spend their energy for silly tasks and quarrels. In truth, they fear time. Time is a threat to them because their beauty and splendour might fade. They become prideful and vain. But when they realise that the power comes from their bright spirit, they become…

King. At this point they know that being a lion is being a king in a jungle. But they are so much more. This is when they realize their royal self. An ageless spirit, a never ending reign of their light. At this point they are full of love and understanding.

Stages of Virgo: Maiden, Dark Maiden, Queen

Maiden. During their very first step in life, Virgo is the young Persephone, a young maiden goddess playing and experiencing her potential. Innocent, brilliant and graceful, the Maiden seeks the truth, while discovering herself on this Realm. However, at some point of their lives, as Persephone was kidnapped, Virgo is forced to travel to the Underworld.

Dark Maiden. At this point Virgo is scared and sad. Although it might not show, they hide a huge sorrow in their hearts. But what is this all about? Most of the times, their sadness is rationalized by their need to put their minds in order. At this time of their lives, they are lost in the darkness of their Underworld. Many Virgos pass a long time suffering from depression. However, if they manage to forgive and accept the world as it is, just like Persephone, she marries the God of Underworld, Hades, and she become…

Queen. At this stage, Virgo is capable of anything. They accept the truth of the world, that there is both Light and Darkness and they rule on both because of their crystal spirit. Hence, they are whole.

States of Libra: Scale, Blindfold, Sword

Scales. The first step of Libra is being the Scales of Themis, goddess of Justice. Always trying to see all options, hear all opinions and take all possible advices. This is why they seem dependent on others and indecisive. What others see as lack of guts, is actually a very powerful procedure when they try to scale all options and be fair and just. However, as they cannot easily proceed in their lives this way, they become…

Blindfold. Enraged and disappointed, they no longer wish to be just, because their energy is depleted. Hence, they make unnatural choices. This makes them feel bad for themselves. Hence, the Blindfold (of Themis). Virtue is no longer their guide. Once they understand that everyone makes mistakes, but it’s important to follow their instincts and heart, regardless, they become…

Sword. The Sword (of Themis) is the personification of right decisions and power. At this point, nothing can stop them and their spirit is aligned with their will. What they think of, becomes reality!

Stages of Scorpio: Scorpion, Eagle, Phoenix

Scorpion. The first step of their lives are Scorpions. Born survivors, they integrate their instincts and passions, in a fervid way, to achieve what they want. Seeking success and satisfaction, they often succeed, but, sometimes, they don’t. When this happens they descend in darkness, as scorpions hide under stones. At this point, some of them might stay forever. Others, they realise their pointless pursuits and they become…

Eagle. When this happens, Scorpions realise that they no longer need to hide, but they need to see the bigger picture and seek different types of success and satisfaction. Hence, at this point of their lives, they realise that they can seek both satisfaction and success elsewhere in life. As eagles, they fly higher and higher. Do you know who flies as high as an eagle does? No-one! This is when they realise how lonely they become. Failure is part of being human, and neglecting their human nature is not a wise choice. Hence, they become…

Phoenix. At this point of their lives, their Spirit shines like never before. Accepting and letting go of hurtful memories, they realise their true potential. The Phoenix is eternal and made of the material the Gods are created from. Hence, they realise how powerful they truly are. Nothing can stop them now!

Stages of Sagittarius: Archer, Arrow, Centaur

Archer. The first step in their lives, they feel that sky is the Limit. Sons and Daughters of Jupiter, they sense that a divine hand is guiding them. As archers, they aim and keep on aiming, again and again. They are optimistic. However, when eventually failure comes, they sometimes lose their sense of balance. They can become hurtful as an…

Arrow. Although they still aim, they have focused so much to their goal they neglect to see the bigger picture. What they need to understand is that succeeding is not always winning. Hence, what once they thought they can conquer, now can be useless. This is when they need to expand their awareness and review their goals. As they thirst for freedom, they realise that they have imprisoned themselves! If they bravely see the truth, they can become…

Centaur. This legendary creature is the personification of freedom, will, wisdom and human strength. Hence, at this point, a Sagittarius becomes a truly wise and successful person, a teacher for all of us. Transcending the human capabilities, the Centaur conquers his/her goals with ease and style!

Stages of Capricorn: Goat, Cave, Horn of Plenty

Goat. The first and most known symbol is the Goat. A earthly creature which might not be as magnificent as the Lion, yet people depend on them for many, many reason. This is exactly like a typical Capricorn. People depend on them, and they are trustworthy and hard-workers. However, as they grow up, they feel that people might use and abuse them. This is when they turn to their…

Cave. At this point of their live, they try to isolate themselves from toxic people and relationships. However, they cut off not only baneful relationships, but, also, healthy ones. As Amalthia, the Goat-nymph who nurtured Zeus in a cave, Capricorns usually seek this isolation as they feel endangered. On their way to the top, they lose touch with people whom once they loved. Thankfully, some of them realise that, and they become…

Horn of Plenty. The symbol of the Amalthia is the Cornucopia, the Horn of Plenty. At this point of their lives, they realize that true riches come from abundance as a state of mind. Hence, they become truly rich in all possible ways, enjoying both material and spiritual goods!

Stages of Aquarius: Cupbearer, Eagle, Angel

Cupbearer. The first step of their lives is when they feel alienated from other, because of their true self. Hence, they become eccentric, trying to communicate their differences in a plain, sad and boring world. The Cupbearer is dragged on Mount Olympus, stranger to all. However, once an Aquarius accepts the World, becomes the symbol of Zeus…

Eagle. At this point of their lives they need to experience the whole world. Hence, they (want to) travel everywhere, see more, feel more, understand more. As this is noble, yet also, at some point, impossible, they might feel lonely and separated from all. A lonely eagle flying high. This is when they need to realize that they cannot feel the same way others do, because they are indeed an…

Angel. Some of them realize their true Angelic nature and embrace it. These are the enlightened creatures who walk amongst us, shedding light in to the darkest places of Earth. Healers, helpers, divine instruments. They are both successful and truly happy, having found their rightful place on Earth.

Stages of Pisces: Fish, Darkness, Ocean

Fish. The first step of their lives they feel like a fish in the vast ocean. Affected by the ever moving waves, they live in their matrix of emotions (sea) and energies around them. As true empaths, they are influenced by enlightened souls, but also by evil entities. Hence, they sometimes get lost into disappointing thoughts, and sadness kicks in. This is when they become…

Darkness. Pisces often feel betrayed and lost, and they don’t know what to do. In order to not hurt others, they seek to forget, so they won’t feel pain anymore. As the fish descends to the darkest depths of the sea, they wait there for a miracle to happen. Then, sometimes, they realise that the miracle is already there. As their Spirit is otherworldly bright, they gracefully accept their true nature and become…

Ocean. This when they embrace the matrix as part of themselves and become the primordial god of Ocean. Hence, at this point, they know that power comes from their heart, and what they want can instantly happen, as they are part of something greater and wiser. They are the vast and rich ocean!

Already Visible Comet create the Greatest Celestial Show in Decades

Alright guys, something really weird is happening the last months and certainly all can feel that. After 3 (!!!) Eclipses and while 5 planets are still Retrograde when I write this article, it’s surely a celestial chaos up there. Surely the astrological Predictions saw a darkness coming but I’m sure that all feel that something is missing. Well this might be it. Already Visible Comet Neowise approaching Earth might elaborate the Astrological Predictions. Comet is already visible to the naked eye. However, the object may soon brighten so much that it might create the greatest celestial light show in decades!

Already Visible Comet create the Greatest Celestial Show in Decades

Newly discovered Comet Neowise (as it was first spotted on March 27) passed closest to the Sun on July 3, 2020 and if it continues to survive perihelion 0.29 AU (43 million km) from the Sun, it is expected to remain visible to the naked eye in July! Moreover, Comet Neowise is currently the brightest comet of 2020. Hence, this is a rare opportunity to glimpse a visitor from the outer solar system. Hopefully, according to researchers it should continue next week, when it will become even brighter.

Comet is visible an hour before sunrise, in the northeastern sky

Right now it’s located in the constellation Auriga and can be seen with the naked eye (!). Of course it’s more amazing with good quality binoculars or a just telescope. However, on July 12, Comet Neowise will be visible an hour after Sunset in the Northwestern sky! From the constellation of Auriga the comet will move as the month progresses rising higher from the constellation Lynx toward the Big Dipper. On July 22 the comet will reach its closest point to Earth—a distance of 103 million kilometers—before continuing its cosmic flight. Whether it will still be visible to unaided eyes by then is uncertain, however.

Comet. A Cosmic Deja-vous?

However, Comet Neowise doesn’t appear to be a newcomer. Astronomers calculating its orbit observed that it closely matches that of the Great Comet how passed Earth around 1843 – 1844.

Both comets appear every 6,000 – 6,800 years as this is how long they take to make one complete orbital circuit. In essence, both comets have circled the sun at least once, if not more than a few times. Therefore, last time this happened was around 4000bC, when we were building the Pyramids in Egypt.

The first time in human history a comet is documented is in Tulli Papyrus. A transcription of an Egyptian papyrus dating from the reign of Thutmose III (reigned between 1479–1425 BC). In general, the manuscript describes several sightings of glorious night-sky phenomena, inlcuding one that seems like a comet as “a marvel never before known since that foundation of the land of Egypt”.

Great Comet of 1844

Harbingers of Change & Divine Wrath

Inca and Aztec priests and wizards the appearances of comets were seen as potent divine wrath striking back. A coment appeared as “a fire that burned in the night sky every night” 10 years before the arrival of Hernán Cortes and the other Spanish conquistadors, marking the end of their civilisation.​

Aztec First Omen

It’s true that Comets have a very long history, usually as omens and harbingers of change, which are commonly translated as bad news. The death of Julius Caesar was marked by a comet. Although this was a very significant event it as also perceived by Romans as a sign of his divinity. Moreover, Napoleon associated the appearances of comets with some of his strategic victories.

“When beggars die there are no comets seen;
The heavens themselves blaze forth the death of princes.” Julius Caesar (II, ii, 30-31)

It just one sentence, William Shakespeare sums up what ancients feared from this omen. A cosmic wrath to outbalance the Realm of the living.

Dark Ages and Ill Omens

Pope Callixtus III excommunicated Halley’s Comet in 1456 as an “instrument of the devil” associating its appearance with the Christian defenders of Belgrade from the besieging armies of the islamic Ottoman Empire.

Some believed that comets appeared as divine omens of Witches dark plans to overthrow the Inquisition’s authority. They thought Witches tried to align with the Comet’s magical powers to bring plague and diseases to the world.

Even later things didn’t seem to change a lot. Thomas Hartman in 1606 wrote the Kometspiegel (aka Comet Mirror) which is a pretty intense topic of what European tribes believed about comets. As you can guess, they were clearly omens of ill events. In Kometspiegel we read that:

“All comets indeed give evidence / of a lot of bad luck, affliction, peril and danger / and a comet never appears / to be cares without evil meaning / in general eight kinds of affliction occur / when a comet burns in the air:

Much fever, illness, pestilence and death,
Difficult times, shortages and famine,
Great heat, droughts and infertility,
War, rapine, fires, murder, riots, envy, hatred and strife,
Frost, cold, storms, weather and lack of water,
Great increase in people going into decline and death,
Conflagrations and earthquakes in many places,
Great changes in government.
But for us to do penance from the heart, God afflicts us with disasters and pains.”

Let’s hope Comet Neowise will bring bright blessings in the World!

Tips & Tricks While Retrograde Neptune

Tips & Tricks While Retrograde Neptune

Neptune is one of the most slowly moving planets around the Sun. Hence, it’s Retrograde course makes things even slower. But that’s not what this article is all about. Here, we are going to discover what is advised and what is not advised during Retrograde Neptune according the ancient wisdom of Astrology and the arcane arts.

Neptune in Astrology

To see how Retrograde Neptune affects us we must first learn  what Neptune rules in astrology. So, even though Neptune was NOT one of the planet of the Ancient Astrology as was found in 23rd September, 1846, this discovery was foretold in occult Astrology. Thus, what few know is that the ancient mystics, knew that we have to discover another 5 planets. One for each Zodiac Sign. So, till now, we’ve only discovered three more: Uranus, Neptune and Pluto. We’ve got 2 more according to esoteric astrology. Although the energies of each planet is prophesied, we haven’t discovered them yet.

Neptune, is named after Poseidon (Neptune in latin), god of the Seas, one of the 3 most power brothers (Zeus-Jupiter, Poseidon-Neptune, Pluto-Hades). Hence, the Symbol of the Planet is Poseidon’s Trident, a powerful weapon for all Witches.

However, Poseidon in astrology doesn’t rule the seas and Water. Moon does. This is a common mistake of modern Astrologers. Moreover, Neptune rules over chemical substances, chemistry in general, alchemy (involving all liquids), dreams, illusions, confusions and all that is beyond our human perception.  Also, Neptune rules over Spirituality. Hence, most powerful magical practices should be aligned with Neptune.

Where is your Neptune? See here! 

Furthermore, this planet rules over deceit and addiction. Neptune, goes one step forward compared to the Moon. This is why in Alchemy we use both ‘Planets’ when creating potions. In our Magical Shop, we try to create potions and incenses when this planets align.

Tips when Retrograde Neptune

When Neptune dances backwards there are plenty of opportunities and also things you should avoid according to the Ancient ones.

Dos & Opportunities

Here is a handy list of things you should try during Neptune’s backwards move.

  • Keep a Dream Journal

When Neptune is Retrograde, the cosmic forces present us amazing spiritual opportunities to evolve. When we sleep, amazing information passively descends to us. One way to keep up with this information is to keep a Dream Journal. As you keep on writing down your dreams – preferably the first thing you do when you wake up – your consciousness expands!

  • Cast Spirit Summoning

As we’ve already explained, Spirits are especially active during Retrograde Neptune. In fact, what changes is our perception. So, during this time, call upon your Guardian Angel, or Spirit Animal or any spirit you feel comfortable with like the Sacred Phoenix or Archangel Michael.

Also keep a journal when talking to spirits and revisit the same text to see what happened.

As we’ve already explained, the energies of Neptune as planet, are very close to the Moon. Hence, they usually work great together. Opening ‘Moon Portals’ will help you consciousness expand. It will also help you with Astral Projection and Shamanic Journeys.

  • Craft Magic Potions

It’s advised to experiment with formulas and potions as Neptune will help us achieve what we want. Of course you can buy witchy formulas like ours, but you can also create them YOURSELF, which is something we always advise!

Don’ts and Traps

Here is a handy list of things you should avoid during Neptune’s backwards move.

  • Get addicted

Unfortunately, Neptune also rules over possible addictions. What’s your poison? During Retrograde Neptune we might find new ways to intoxicate ourselves. Drugs and toxic substances and other things which may harm when you overuse them like alcohol, food, TV etc. Hence, during this time, please try to create a barrier of serenity and objectively  observe things that you may find yourself addicted to.

  • Close your Eyes to the Truth

Also, as we previously analyzed, Neptune rules over illusions. Therefore, Neptune may cloud your judgement or even create a need to ‘escape reality’. It’s very common during these influences to skip the facts and focus on day-dreaming. Of course, this usually leads to a big-scale catastrophe and loss of self-esteem. ‘How couldn’t I see it?’ we usually ask ourselves. Well, we do see it. We just don’t want to believe it.

  • Disconnect from Spirit

Although it’s clearly something we usually get help from, sometimes we question ourselves and our powers. Hence, this often leads to self-doubt. Please do not repeat the same mistakes. Energy doesn’t lie. Trust your intuition. Listen to your heart.

Stonehenge will Livestream Druid’s Summer Solstice Celebration for the first time

It’s no surprise that we love Stonehenge and probably all legends and facts which surround this Megalithic monument. According to new information, English Heritage had been forced to cancel the annual celebration at Stonehenge due to the ban on crowds gathering. If you think that more than 10.000 druids gather annually for the Summer Solstice Celebration it makes sense that this feast would be cancelled due to the unprecedented ‘social distancing’ rules in Covid19 era. Therefore, Stonehenge will Livestream Druid’s Summer Solstice Celebration for the very first time ever. Another way to make ourselves brighter during lockdown (see more here)!

Stonehenge will Livestream Summer Solstice

We have read so many books and articles as we also watched numerous documentaries and movies on what Stonehenge really was when it was created. A Druid’s temple? An enormous relic from the lost continent of Atlantis? A huge astronomical calendar where the Menhirs were carefully placed to represent certain details of Cosmos? New information is unearthed day after day. Last one discovered that the Stonehenge was actually a complete Circle!

June 21 Solar Eclipse - Summer Solstice

Solar Eclipse & Summer Solstice

This is not the only important event of the Day. On this day, unimaginable amounts of magical energy will arrive on this plane. We will help you tap into it. Eclipse Magic at its Best! 

Furthermore, The Monument in Wiltshire is considered by some one of the most important constructions of the West Civilisation and amongst the favourite for Pagans and especially the Druids. Hence, and due to the global health crisis the ‘English Heritage‘ was forced to cancel the event “for the safety and wellbeing of attendees, volunteers and staff”. The annual gathering is cancelled but Summer Solstice is not. Here’s the official Facebook Page of the Event.

Therefore, druids decided that Stonehenge will Livestream instead. Hence, it will broadcast the majestic Solstice’s Sunrise behind the Heel Stone. This was actually the entrance to the Stone Circle of Stonehenge. Moreover, there will be historians and experts broadcasting live and commenting on the history and legends surrounding the ancient stone Circle of Stonehenge. Interviews and more amazing information will help anyone understand the importance of this amazing monument. 

A spell to invite a lover (or more than one)

A spell to invite a lover (or more than one)

Before starting explaining this spell, let me give you a warning. This spell is more well known for inviting sexual partners rather than long-lasting relationships. The latter is not impossible, though, just not the most probable result. Therefore, if what you need is a love affair, or you are certain you don’t want one, then this spell might not be the right for you.

With this in mind, let’s see the spell. This spell is done during 7 consecutive nights. Not days, but nights. For better results, start on a Wednesday night, during the time Mercury is ruling, and, from then on, continue each night either at the same hour, or, again, when Mercury is ruling, each night.

Can you cast this spell while Mercury is Retrograde? Yes, you can, especially when the kind of lover you are seeking is someone who you want to have qualities similar to some of your previous experiences. But even if this isn’t the case, you still can perform this spell.

While performing this spell each night you should preferably do it naked, but, even if this isn’t what you prefer, make sure you are not wearing any piece of black clothing (including black parts on clothes of other colours) or any metals. Hairpins, chains, rings, glasses, clothes with zips, belts… It can be tricky, so make sure there is no metal on you.

Also, regardless what kind of altar you usually use, you need to perform this spell on a low table, or on the floor, as you’ll need to kneel and to have the setting at your eye sight.

So, what you’ll need:

Using the red magic ink, write on the piece of paper the qualities of the person, or persons, you want to draw to you. Don’t write any names, just the qualities this person should have to satisfy your needs and desires. As said, this spell works better with carnal attraction rather than emotional one. Therefore, writing the sexual desires you want this person, or persons, to fulfil will reinforce the spell.

‘Come to me’ oil. A favourite oil amongst the Enchanters and Enchantresses.
‘Come to me’ oil. A favourite oil amongst the Enchanters and Enchantresses.

You can write this during the first “ritual”, or prior to that, if you want to take your time to think what you should write. In the latter case, make sure, even when you are writing this, you are not wearing anything black, or any metal. Although there isn’t any warning about it, in my opinion your pen should not be made by metal, either. Also, if possible, do it during the hours of Mercury’s ruling.

My advice is that you’ll describe the qualities of the person, or persons, you want to attract by means of a plain pen, or pencil, on a plain piece of paper, and when you are satisfied with what you’ve written, you can use this note to copy it during the first night’s “ritual”. This way, you don’t need to mind the precautions while writing your wishes. Also, you don’t need to worry whether you make a mistake, change your opinion, or forget something important for you. A much safer approach, in my opinion.

Now! During the first night, using the blue ink, draw the symbol of Mercury (☿) on the white saucer, using the blue ink. Draw it as big as the saucer allows. Then, anoint, first the red candle and then the blue candle, with the Road Opener oil and, then, the Fast Luck oil. Fix the candles, in contact, on the saucer, inside the circle of Mercury’s symbol. To do that, you can either melt, a little, the bottom of the candles, or melt some white candle and fix the Red and Blue candles by means of this. Although the first method is better magic-wise, the second is safer to avoid accidents.

Using the dragon’s blood ink (or other magic ink of your choice), write your desires on the piece of paper and, then, anoint the paper with Road Opener oil and, then, Fast Luck oil. Place the piece of paper on the saucer, too, if possible. You can fold it as needed.

These are done only during the first night. The following you’ll be doing all seven nights.

Anoint your throat and chest with some Come to Me oil and, then, place the bottle next to the candles, on the saucer. Light the two candles as “simultaneously” as possible, starting from the Red candle. Kneel. If necessary, use a pillow under your knees, but make sure it’s not black and it doesn’t contain metal parts. Concentrate on the kind of person(s) you desire and make a wish that all obstacles for the manifestation of your wish will be removed and only good luck will be by your side. Visualise yourself enjoying sex with this kind of person(s).

If you can keep up on doing this for a whole hour, all the better, but don’t force yourself. If your posture becomes uncomfortable, or you get tired, stop. You don’t want these negative energies in the relationship, whether it will end up being a love affair, or a sexual affair.

Let the candles burn for an hour (since the time you’ve lighten them) and, then, blow them out. If possible, leave the altar untouched until the next night. On the seventh night, let the candles burn out completely.

Always take all fire safety precautions and never leave lighted candles unattended.

Take the piece of paper and carry it with you, all the time, while awake. Place it under your sheet, or in your pillow case, while sleeping. Use the remaining of the Come to Me oil daily by anointing your throat and chest.

In some cases, this spell produces results even before the end of the 7-night ritual. If that happens, complete the procedure, regardless.

That’s all! Have fun with this spell and enjoy your life! Oh! And play safe, of course!!!

Runic Love Spell

Whether you celebrate St.Valentine’s day, or Lupercalia, or Anthesteria or something else, these days are drenched in erotic energy. This happens for two main reasons. First of all, the forces of Spring are gathering and are ready to wake up Mother Earth. Hence, the erotic energy is pretty strong. And also, due to the popularity of the Day of Love, so many people are focusing on Love and Passion these days. This creates a matrix of thick loving and passionate astral energy which can be used to attract more love. Thus, tap into this energy with this simple Runic Love Spell to invite Love and Satisfaction in your life! However, you can try this spell anytime you desire.

Runic Love Spell

Although there is no original rune for ‘Love’, the magic of Runes has long been employed for Love Spells. Witches used Runes to attract love and, unfortunately, to bind others under love spells. In our Runic Love Spell, these three runes, ‘Sowilo’ ‘Mannaz’ ‘Wunjo’, in this order, provide a perfect combination and harmony to attract Love and Passion in your life.

There is so much magic in them. All three are very powerful Runes. Therefore, in Runic Magic, they actually conjure the Blessings of the Sun, in perfect harmony with our human nature, to bring Joy and satisfaction in our lives. This is what makes this Love Spell so powerful. Not only does it intend to attract love, but, also, it makes our lives happy by means of it.

This love spell does not intend to bind anyone under a love spell, so please do not use it in this way. Not to mention, you would be missing the whole point. Whether you found the one, or still looking for him/her, this spell intends to bring Joy and Love in your life. Let yourself explore the endless possibilities of Love. Open your heart.

How to Cast the spell

1. Pick a red candle. 

The red candle symbolises the Fiery Power of Life Force. This is what we’ll focus on.

2. Make a fine powder of dried red or pink rose buds.

Rose has always been regarded the ‘key’ to open the portals of Magic. In fact, the Egyptian hieroglyph of ‘Rose’ also means ‘Portal’. We use the Rose to open the Gates of Love and invite the entities who bring love in our lives.

Runic Love Spell

3. Anoint the candle with a mixture of Sunflower oil with the roses powder.

Of course you can use more sophisticated formulas like ‘Come to me’ which has long been used to attract what we need in our lives. Its combination is considered very powerful in all love and attraction spells.

4. Carve the three runes on the red candle.

Carve these three runes in this exact order.

5. Light the candle visualising yourself happy and satisfied with love and passionate energies.

Light the candle and look at the bright flame dancing on your red candle. This symbolises your Will. (Always take fire safety measures. Use appropriate candle holders. Never leave a candle unattended. )

Once you light the candle, take a few moments to visualise yourself happy, and your heart filled with love. Do not picture a certain someone, rather than that, try to ‘recall’ this rushing feeling of passion in you, you feel when you meet someone you really really like. Visualise yourself being satisfied by Love.

Feel free to substitute any of them with your own concoctions. After all, magic is and it always will be in your bright Spirit.

Blessed be!
