  • The Signs of Success

    The Signs of Success

    What is Success?

    Wealth cannot be the full measure of success, for I have seen people wealthy but unhappy
    Fame cannot be the denominator of success, for I have seen famous people suffer
    Family cannot be the sign of success, for I have heard mothers complain of boredom
    Friends cannot indicate success, for I have seen popular people empty inside once the party is over
    Beauty could not mean success, for I have seen glamorous ones shed tears

    Success in what?
    Your goals once attained indicate your success…yes…but which goals indicate life success?

    You will see that the people you call successful may not be bursting with joy just because they have money or fame or family or friends or looks..

    Yes success can mean different things to different people and at different points of time…but that is the temporal and relative meaning of success.

    The word Success to which I am referring to is the universal one.
    It completes you.
    Its not focused on having one thing or another.

    Instead it is focused on being:

    Peaceful
    Loving
    Grateful
    Forgiving
    Compassionate
    Generous
    Honest
    Ethical
    Happy
    Positive

    To be successful is to have greatness within.

    To be someone you love.
    That is the sign of true success

    So do you love yourself?
    In other words….are you successful?

    Blessed be

  • Intuition or Intention

    Intuition or Intention

    It was the soccer world cup and I happened to see this game on television where a team seemed to be losing badly and I said no, they are going to win just half an hour to go…and with the amazement of friends watching  this game, I turned out to be right.

    I saw in my dream clearly in the form of a media news story with stock indices graphs, that a certain bank’s stock would rise within 3 months by 25 percent and told the bank manager…and after three months I was not surprised by the headlines.

    I saw in my dream a cyclone coming and in my dream itself I sent it away. After a few days I did not panic when friends messaged me of the warning of a cyclone that was to hit Mumbai. Noone could quite understand where the cyclone went though.

    I saw in one dream, a house with two large furry cats in the open space outside just before I was to travel to a new place. The same scene with the same two cats repeated in the new location during house hunting.

    Were these all these examples mere cases of intuition or did it have to be my hidden or conscious intention that ensured the above?

    What is intuition after all?
    Are we creating our universe at seome level…consciously or unconsciously?
    If yes then our intuitions simply point to things we are manifesting unconsciously.
    Intention however is to manifest consciously.
    Thats the main difference.

    So while it may be a very strong intuition that those things were to happen…my intention to prevent misfortune such as the cyclone, manifest stock market success, make the losing team win or simply to have those two furry cats around was adjusting the universal vibrations around me. I must admit I truly wanted the losing team to win at least that game.

    So is the the world around us changeable…and if yes to what degree?
    The answer lies in the fact that everything is a vibration created by the mind and when you are in the centre of this universe…in the energy of the creator aspect of nature…nothing is quite impossible. If you can see it, feel it, want it, think it, dream it (and you can be awake in your dream)…you can achieve it.

    I have seen the maximum power in both my intuitions and intentions when I have been meditating for large amounts of time everyday, spending time at my store Magick, working with crystals and candles, oils and herbs, watching magickal films, reading magickal stories, discussing magickal subjects. Somehow all this expands your energy field and links the mind with the universe so that you are One. That’s when you can read anyone’s mind only too easily or make things happen without any stress.

    Yes you can meditate all the time when you are completely in the spirit plane. But if you enjoy pĺaying the game of life you open your eyes and see things changing and shaping, healing and improving everyday…perhaps thats why I am a witch.

    You will be a much better witch when you awaken your inner power using the right methods.

  • A spell for your every resolution for a Happy New Year

    A spell for your every resolution for a Happy New Year

    Some people make empty resolutions for the New Year.
    Some cast spells and achieve them all…

    Here is how to get what you want in this new year.

    Resolution 1: Get the perfect body (top of the list for most of you I’m sure)
    Spell: Breathe in, imagine yourself looking fabulous, fit, healthy, see it clearly in your mind…breathe out and then say the affirmation, “i have the most perfect body now”. Repeat until it feels good all over.
    This spell is better when you light a white male or female figure candle to match your gender for a few minutes daily as you bathe with rock salt or sea salt and perform this affirmation and visualisation. See the difference for yourself. Feel good about your new beautiful body.
    Its best if you start collecting a few clothes of the size you wish to achieve. It will push you to getting there. Soon you will fit into them.
    Most importantly stop saying negative things abut your body. Believe it is now transforming for the better..it always works. Somehow your lifestyle will adjust to your belief and help you get the perfect body. Remember you are a soul in a body. Your body is your creation.

    Resolution 2: Get on top of your career (always important)
    Spell: Stand straight, breathe in, stretch your body with your arms up towards the sky. Imagine this lovely blue light coming from the universe filling you up and say, “I am on top of my career now, I am doing what I love and doing it well, I am successful and content, I deserve, accept and create this. So be it.” Feel your body absorbing the light in every cell. Then relax and get back to daily life (happily).
    This spell works better if you carry a turqoise stone with you for 21 days or more while you perform this affirmation and visualisation everyday. Enjoy working. Love it.

    Resolution 3: Make more money (who would mind that)
    Spell: Take three real coins of any denomination and place them between your palms. Feel them getting warm and energised as you say to them, “Multiply wealth now for me and everyone around, may everyone prosper including me”. Now toss the coins in any place of nature not knowing where they may go, knowing that wealth will come to you as well. This spell helps you spread abundance as you feel the free flow of money into your life by releasing your fears regarding money.
    This spell works better if you wear or carry a money charm or talisman of your choice. Do not worry about money. Give and receive freely. Money is your tool.

    Resolution 4: Happily ever after (relationship of your dreams)
    Spell: Light a pink candle. Take a new and beautiful rose quartz stone and feel the light of the candle filling it up for a few minutes. Then kiss the stone and say, “Thank you. My romantic life is as lovely and as joyful as can be, forever and ever.” Keep the stone beneath your pillow each night and carry or wear it during day and keep interacting with the stone as suggested above. Watch happy romantic movies. Read fairy tales. Believe them to be true for you, no matter what people say. Love is real.

    Resolution 5: Be in a place of your choice (travel or relocate)
    Take your passport and place a copy of the tarot card “The World” in it. Then take a picture of the place of your choice and as you gaze into it…see yourself in it….living, enjoying, travelling. Have fun. You might even dream of this at night. You will be there soon. Trust. The world is your playground.

    These spells are written for you and you can pass on this link to share with others.
    Remember whatever you think, say, feel, want or behave as…is likely to be part of your life.

    If you are unhappy, angry, frustrated, upset about something…you will get more of that.
    If you are happy, grateful, positive about something…you will receive more of that.

    Thats what spells are all about..feeling, thinking, saying, doing, manifesting and loving positive things.

    Have a witchy new year. Happy 2014!

  • Who created the world?

    Who created the world?

    Last week a group of ladies on the streets handed me some free publications and i was completely sure they were promoting the Bible.
    I am amazed and impressed at how the texts were so much about nature and science, as if explaining to the modern reader how the Bible is not against science at all.

    The books marvelled at nature, diversity, evolution, earth and how it functions so beautifully. According to them such marvels cannot come to be in nature all by chance. There has to be God behind it all.

    So today on Christmas eve I ask you who is this God?

    Are you satisfied in your curiosity about how nature is so wonderfully designed by the theory that ‘God made everything’?

    Did you have any curiosity in the first place?

    Is Christmas or Diwali or Eid or any other festival just an occassion to make merry, or do you ever think about God and the universe on these days?

    Are you just wishing each other Merry Christmas and Happy New Year just because everyone around is doing the same?

    Are you even Happy in the true sense?
    Or are you just like one of those who are ever engrossed in the process of existence, so thickly, so tightly engrossed in your material existence, ever to think..who created the world?

    Is ‘who created the world’ a question you asked as a child and then you were told..God created the world..and you said ‘GOD who?’…and noone really had any idea..so they handed you these religious books like the Bible and Gitas of the world for answers you were never going to get from them (if you ever succeeded in interpreting them in the first place)?

    By the time you grew up you were just too busy earning a living or bringing up babies to actually be like that child again who wanted the truth.
    And then one day your child asked you, or will ask you this question..,Who is the creator?
    And you wouldn’t know what to say and will hand the child the same old books and they will grow up just as confused, just as unaware, just as busy solving the problem of staying alive..to ever ask this question again.

    Today as you join the festivities around I want you to ask this question to yourself..once again. And I hope it will be a spiritual rebirth for your inner child. A chance to know the truth and to know thyself. That will be a real cause of celebration.

    Then maybe you will fall in love with life again.
    Maybe the sorrows of the world will end.
    There will be green forests, happy animals, clean air and water on earth.
    We will no longer look for someone superior than nature to take the credit of creation away.
    Nature creates, it has consciousness, we visualise nature as the goddess who connects to us all. Not a virgin, but a full and complete goddess..fertile and beautiful in every way, powerful beyond compare.

    Science tries to understand nature. Religions have tried to close down the scientific mind inside our inner child. Now religions are threatened by science…trying to prove they were not wrong. After all these centuries of creating darkness on earth.

    Lets no longer fool ourselves anymore. There is only truth to be found inside us. Let there be light..

    The new sun is born again this solstice of winter, it used to be called Yule, it represented the birth of God the Consciousness from the womb of mother nature as sun regained power after the darkest night of the solar year.

    Blessed Yule friends..to those of us who still celebrate nature.

    And may nature inspire us all to stay in wonder, to stay in love, to marvel at the mother nature who is created by the Self, of whom God the Consciousness is a part.
    Lets awaken this God within, who loves nature and protects her everyday. And lets not think of this God as someone outside nature.

    Blessed be!

  • Against Superstition and Black Magic. Not against Witchcraft.

    Against Superstition and Black Magic. Not against Witchcraft.

    Is it superstitious to believe in God or divinity?
    Is it superstitious to believe that we have souls and intuition?
    Is it superstitious to believe in your Will power or in other words Witch power?
    Is Black magic related to Witchcraft in any way at all?

    Let me disperse much of the myths and ignorance clouding people including media and activists who cry hoarse against superstition and witchcraft in the same breath. In my opinion they need to know the meaning of these two terms first.

    Superstition: belief without understanding. Also disbelief without understanding eg believing that there is no spirit or magick also amounts to superstition

    Witchcraft: The science of spiritual healing through a rational understanding of energy, inner self and nature.

    Media has responsibility. You must be careful to quote only the right sources in any article. If you chose to quote someone please first check if the person has the expertise level to comment on the subject. In your eagerness to fill one article with as many names as you can and especially in your eagerness to cover the other ‘balancing’ opinion or in other words ‘negative’ angles you only put the world in greater ignorance. Negative is not for balance…it throws you off balance. Read my post on The Meaning of Positive for that part.

    When so called ‘ rationalists’ start opposing withcraft, intuition, healing and club these all under the term superstition or black magic…I laugh at where they goof this ignorance from…
    Should they not be studying at least a little bit about what they shout and cry about first?
    Are they qualified?
    Are they even rational?
    In my observation people with rigid mental blocks sometimes don the title of ‘rationalists’ …how will they learn leave alone teach the world unless they look within.

    To believe in God or Divinity is not superstitious. To believe in mythical versions of God or divinity being historical facts could be superstitious.

    The only version of God or divinity that we know for a fact as true is Nature. You can sense it daily…the sun, moon, stars, sea, earth, trees, stones, rivers, fire and spirit…all are here with us everyday and everynight. We cannot deny their presence. These are the real gods and goddesses. The universe is divine. Let’s be scientific…nature is full of magick. Magick does not mean flying against gravity on a broom or turning people into mice. Its meditation and inner work. Self realisation is another name for magickal awareness. It means not being fatalistic but being incharge of your destiny. You have the power to heal.

    Witchcraft/ Wizardry coming from the words Wit/ Wisdom respectively has NOTHING to do with the notorius sorcery called black magic. Black magic is by nature harmful or negative. Witchcraft is in contrast a scientific way of healing and helping people. Its the science of energy and vibrations which compose this universe. We like to bring ourselves in alignment with the natural flow of the universe.

    Wicca is different from witchraft in being a scientific religion or shared belief system by itself while witchcaft is the science of spiritual healing.

    Its those black magicians who believe in harming others who misguide others. Stop giving them the respectful title of witches.

    Its those astrologers or seers who tell people that their destiny is ominously controlled by outside for forces who are superstitious. They need to get a Wiccan degree.

    Its those ordinary folk or laymen who immerse ganpati idols with no idea of why this ritual came into being who are superstitious. Bursting crackers at diwali is superstitious. Dirtying earth in the name of holi is superstitious. Chopping trees for Xmas is superstitious. These are nature festivals. You cannot harm nature to celebrate nature. Sacrificing goats in torturous ways just because someone said you should is superstitious. Believing that god created the world in seven days or that a living person called Jesus was the only divine child of god could be termed superstitious. Divine is not self limiting. Rituals should not be based on blind faith but scientific understanding of symbolism. Ritual should not be harmful to others or nature. You should not claim god to be a force who controls us from outside. Do not block women from being religious or spiritual leaders and prophets. Stop burning or condemning women who are healers or prophets.

    Its mainstream religions who have been much much more superstitious or harmful so far…

    There can be nothing more scientific, helpful or rational than witchcraft, magick and intuition.
    Meditate, learn from the right sources. Be incharge of your mind and your thoughts.
    Let there be light. Be a witch or wiz…..its the best you can be. This is a fact.

    Blessed be!

  • Celebrate Nature and Heal Earth All Year, Every Year with Magick

    We all have the power to create positive energy vibrations and heal self and others through our beliefs, thoughts, feelings and intentions (and not just through outer actions). This is the basic essence of Magick or spirituality.

    Wicca is a modern religion that celebrates nature and propagates only positive spiritual/ magickal work that Harms None. It is the most positive and magickal spiritual system spreading over earth today.

    An Earth Healing Ritual is a magickal or sacred ceremony conducted by Earth Healing Temple to give healing to earth and all its creatures – conducted each year several times by the Earth Healing Tempe of Global Wicca (headquartered currently at Magick store, 16th road Mumbai 2265250328 fm 1130am-830pm).

    The rituals are conducted especially during the following Wiccan festivals or Faerie festivals of nature. In-fact you may be wonderfully surprised at how every mythical festival in various popular religions is based on the following basic logic of nature because it is the very base of every religion:

    Earth Healing Ritual Dates and Nature/ Faerie Festivals in Brief:

    21 June – Midsummer or Litha – Summer Solstice (Peak of summer and longest day- outer work such as tree or herb plantations)

    1 Aug – Lugnasadh or Lammas (First Harvest – time for blessing of first fruits and reaping what was sown)

    21 Sep – Mabon – Autumn equinox (Second Harvest – when night equals day, time for thanksgiving and blessing of grains)

    31 Oct – Samhain (Final Harvest – end of summer and preparation of inner spirit work on Hallows eve)

    21 Dec – Yule – Winter Solstice (Peak of winter – dressing of trees to keep their spirits warm, celebrating death of old winter god and birth of young summer god)

    1 Feb – Imbolc or Candlemas (Recession of winter – lighting of candles for healing and blessing of earth)

    21 Mar – Ostara – Spring Equinox (When night equals day, Celebrate fertility returning to earth with colors, rabbits and eggs as symbol of fertility)

    1 May – Beltane – Summers Start (Lighting of sacred fires to celebrate light and joy by dancing around maypole or trees)

    WHAT YOU CAN DO:
    As per the above dates and festival descriptions, you can by yourself or in a team, outdoors in summers and indoors in winters, join the Earth Healing Temple ‘astrally’ (through the power of your inner focus) and be a part of the ritual by following the steps below.

    Step 1: Ground yourself – let all unwanted or excess energies go to earth for recycling by feeling them leave your body through your feet

    Step 2: Shield yourself – Visualise a protective circle of white-blue light all around you and other participants if any to cover the ritual area.

    Step 3: Ask the Good Faeries (nature’s spirits who help heal the earth) to join you and state your intention for earth healing and say a positive affirmation for blessing of earth as follows-
    “With the power of the Good Faeries and all the people connected with the Earth Healing Temple, Earth is now blessed with positive energy. People are all working together for earth’s betterment. All of nature is blessed. All creatures of nature are happy and protected. Earth is green, beautiful and healthy. We are infinitely in a state of divine and perfect balance with nature. So Be It!”

    Step 4: Visualize a radiant green light filling earth, being absorbed in every particle of every creature or thing. At this point of time the energy created by the Earth Healing Temple’s ritual will be channeled into your sacred space for healing and blessing your personal ritual as well as all your trees (in case of plantation in midsummer month) or all your crystals, candles and herbs in case of other months such as Candlemas or Samhain . Feel the green light and its soothing effects for 5 to 10 minutes or more as required.

    Step 5: Thank the earth for everything earth has provided you always and state your intention to keep working towards earth healing. If any guidance comes from earth to you – such as a message from the universe on how you can help further, please make a note of it.

    Step 6: Perform the work suitable for the season around the appropriate days, even if the days are not exact:

    21 June – Plant blessed saplings. Just take some saplings and after they are energized with the above ritual, plant them in the right place where they can thrive and water them, ensuring they are guarded and maintained in future.

    1 Aug – Bless fruits of your choice with the above ritual, and offer some of them to trees in your area as a symbol of thanks and energy exchange in return of what the trees give us

    21 Sep – Bless food grains, corn or loaf of bread with the above ritual and offer some of them to trees in your area as a symbol of thanks and energy exchange in return of what the trees give you

    31 Oct – Bless some natural crystals of earth and sow the blessed crystals into earth or immersing them in the waterbeds or oceans to heal earth

    21 Dec – Decorate trees in your area, celebrate around the tree and hug trees to exchange warm loving energy between yourself and the chosen trees

    1 Feb – Light sacred candles to heal and bless earth and to exchange positive energy with earth

    21 Mar – Paint eggs and sow into earth with symbols and designs to convey your love to earth as a symbol of earth’s fertility returning. Also sprinkle flower petals or natural powders on trees and people (ask first) as a symbol of blessing of earth

    1 May – Light a small sacred fire and dance around a tree in your area or offer your own prayer of choice to the tree leaving red and white ribbons tied on the tree trunk for earth healing

    Step 7: Ground again and once again shield yourself before leaving the ritual space. If you are doing the above work in multiple areas and at multiple times, ground and shield before each ritual’s start and after each ritual’s end.

    If you like our cause, and if you haven’t joined us already, please visit www.globalwicca.com and join us. You can also take the Wiccan Oath and be part of the Global Wicca Tradition.

    Blessed Be and Thank You for Joining the Earth Healing Temple of Global Wicca Tradition!
