The Elements of Spells

The Elements of Spells

When creating your own spells you are limited only by your imagination. The correspondences and styles for spellwork are many: Colors, elements, candles, stones, and herbs are just a few of the items you can use in spells.

Many people prefer simple spells such as candle magic, but blending this with other items can provide new and energized spells. This article concerns working with the four basic elements: earth, air, fire, and water. Combining them with your usual spell items allows for even more creative opportunities and will result in a more original and personal spell.

One method that works well is to create a spell jar, which expands on candle magic. To do this, partially fill a glass container with water and add stones or shells and sprinkle the appropriate herbs on the water. Dress a candle with oil that corresponds to your magical working and carve an appropriate symbol into it, then float it in the water. It goes without saying that these things are best done while visualizing your intent and within a magic circle. The spell jar provides an environment for combining all the elements: earth, air, fire, and water. When the candle has burned out, reuse its wax, keep the stones, and return the water and herbs to the Earth.

Of course, you may still tailor your spell around a specific element depending on the nature of your need. One method for earth-centered spells is to mix stones, herbs, and nuts with earth, and place a candle, or draw a rune, in a pile of this stuff while visualizing your intent. For a water-oriented spell, use sand and shells. When the spell is complete, simply return the items to the ground or sea. Save the candle wax if you can. This can be melted down and reused to make new candles.

Feathers are good to use in air spells. Place very small ones in sachets or pillows; mix with earth and sand mixtures, float on water; or anoint with a drop of oil and release in a strong wind. You may also create a bundle of feathers, herbs, and flowers, then tie with a ribbon. The ribbon can be decorated with runes and oils and be of a corresponding color.

Depending on the other elements you would like to combine, float the bundle on water, bury in the ground, or burn it. Watch for natural items wherever you go. Look around for feathers, nuts, fallen leaves, rocks, shells, pinecones, sand, and water, especially in public areas such as beaches and parks; though always be sure you do not remove items from a protected area. Alternatively, you can buy some of these items in stores or order them via a mail-order source. But certainly it's more exciting and energizing if you can find them yourself in nature. Remember to take only what you will need for the moment and never dig up an entire plant.

However, harvesting a few seeds of the plant in the fall will allow you to grow it yourself. Collect just a jar of sand, small bottle of water, a couple of leaves, or rocks--and give thanks to the land as you do. Grow your own herbs if you can, even the smallest patio or balcony can support a few containers of plants. These add to the power of the herbs in your spells and assure they are grown in conditions you can monitor and keep organic.

Be creative! If you pour your own candles, mix stones or shells in the wax. Being unique ensures variety and personal energy in all your spells. Happy spell-weaving!

The 5 Saddest Things People Do to Look Smart
By:
Christina H

We're at a point in our society where being smart is becoming more and more valued. Hollywood films are featuring smarter heroes, TV shows try to shame people who are dumber than a fifth grader, we elected a smarter president, etc. Unfortunately, every time something becomes cool, a lot of people are in such a hurry to jump on the bandwagon that they focus on the outer trappings and don't put in the work. In this case, trying really hard to look smart without focusing on learning or thinking.

Via Getty Images

Why study when you can just put on some glasses and look at people real serious like?
The biggest problem is that there's a lot of different kinds of smart, and we can't all be good at all of them. Some people just panic and think there's only two groups of people -- the smart and the dumb. The cool and the uncool. These people might be smart in some ways, but they feel like they have to exaggerate those ways and fake being smart in all the other ways in order to not fall into the "dumb" category, which really really terrifies them.
But pulling these stunts just backfires terribly, like when people try to:

#5.
Brandish Academic Credentials

Now, there's an appropriate time to pull out your Ph.D. or your standardized test scores, like when you are applying for a job or a school, or picking someone up at a bar.

Via Getty Images

"Hey, do you wash your pants with Windex because I got an 800 on my SAT math section."
There are also hilariously inappropriate times, like during sex, or to prove you are the smartest person in an argument.
Now, maybe this is just me being silly, but I'm pretty sure that you show you are smart in an argument by being correct. Sure, the issue being argued might be murky and debatable, but the facts you use to back up your side can be obviously right or wrong. For example, if you claim that China is not going to stay a dominant economic power because the Chinese economy relies on a barter system where everything is paid for in chopsticks, you are obviously wrong, because we all know things are paid for in fish balls.

Via Benjwong

Yum!
If people pointed out you were literally, factually wrong about China's currency, you probably would back off and be a bit embarrassed, like a normal person, but some people somehow think they can keep up the bluff by pulling out academic credentials. "You may have an encyclopedia showing that China has actual paper currency, but I have a PhD in economics! And I graduated at the top of my class!"
These people are confused about how credentials work. In the real world, we show our GPA, test scores, and degrees to get into a school or a job, and those set up the expectation that we'll do a good job or succeed in the program. But then we actually have to do the job, or the coursework. Once you have fucked up and covered the $100 million genomics lab in burnt peanut butter or something, nobody is going to care about how many letters you have after your name. They are just going to assume you got them by fraud.

You think they would have caught this earlier.
This is exactly the same in everyday life. No matter how many credentials you have showing you were smart in the past, if you are insisting that adamantium is an element on the periodic table or explaining that cats have six legs, you are being visibly and provably stupid in the present. Even if you can convince people you once taught Stephen Hawking everything he knows, they are just going to shake their head sadly and wonder what tragic accident took away your mental faculties since then.

#4.
Brag About Personality Test Results

The average human being isn't flexible enough to fellate themselves. That's why we have personality tests. Myers-Briggs personality test results are horoscopes for people who think they are too smart to fall for horoscopes. The actual test just gives you a set of 4 letters, but additional layers of the system give each type an insultingly flattering label like, "The Mastermind," or "The Champion."

Via Getty Images

This could be you!
That's an improvement on traditional horoscopes, where you could end up being a "Cancer," if you're not lucky. But no, every Myers-Briggs personality type sounds awesome and special, which is probably totally unrelated to how popular the Myers-Briggs personality test is.

Via Getty Images

Notice nobody ever tells you that seeing a butterfly in an inkblot means you're a misunderstood genius.
Even though every personality type description focuses on how awesome you are, some have special focus on how smart you are, such as the INTJ type:
Often intellectual, they enjoy analysis and complex problem-solving, and are much less comfortable with the illogical and unpredictable nature of other people and their emotions. They may not want to bother with people who they do not perceive to be their intellectual equals. ...the INTJ often has a unique ability to foresee logical outcomes.
This is even more convenient than taking the SAT to show how smart you are because, let's face it, answering personality test questions is not rocket science. You don't need to have a speck of knowledge in any field or discipline, you just need to be able to answer questions while pretending you are Data or Spock from Star Trek.

Via Getty Images

"Well, I DO 'easily see the general principle behind specific occurrences'. I bet no one else answered yes to that!"
Aside from the fact that most psychologists feel the test has "the intellectual content of a fortune cookie," you run into the same problems as with academic credentials. Nothing from outside is going to make you look smart if you can't actually be smart in front of people.

#3.
Stack The Deck

If you're insecure about your smartness, then there's nothing more scary than the thought that someone will ask you a question you can't answer. Your nightmares consist of you stuttering, "The number of electoral votes in Michigan? It's... well... uh..." and a blurry, looming crowd saying in slow motion, "I thought you were supposed to be smart..." while you fall backwards into a bottomless pit and wake up screaming.

Via FeelingElephants

It's 17, sleep tight!
These nightmares lead people to do foolish, obnoxious things in an attempt to beat their imagined persecutors to the punch, like prepare the information beforehand and supply it before they're even asked, which you probably know is really, really annoying.
If you've ever been ambushed out of nowhere by someone telling you the number of electoral votes Michigan has, this is probably why. Or if someone has hijacked your conversation about this weekend's movies to enlighten you about how the inner world of women was a running theme in many of Ingmar Bergman's films.

Via Getty Images

"Hey, Alan, sorry to interrupt your conference call, but did you know that Nietzsche's statements about the death of God are widely misunderstood?"
Some of their favorite subjects are conspiracy stories and "secrets" that most people won't normally know, usually because they are made-up. Because when you pull a, "Did you know ..." on somebody, nothing's more deflating than "yes," so obscure and non-mainstream is the way to go.

Via Getty Images

"Hey, Alan, I just read The Bell Curve and apparently science proves black people are genetically less intelligent."
So you'll get a kid that's just read Atlas Shrugged and thinks they've stumbled on a "I bet you never thought of this" goldmine of ideas to dump on people and dazzle them, not realizing those ideas are on the fringe not because they are obscure but because most people think they are lame. So his idea of impressing someone at a party is to recite a Cliff's Notes version of the book, seeing his ability to remember key quotes and details as evidence that he really gets it (while nobody else does), and not as a sign that he read the book 2 days ago (while nobody else did).

Via Getty Images

"Oh, PLEASE. You're completely misinformed about what happens in Chapter 8, Part 1. That clearly takes place in Chapter 8, Part 2."
But you can't stack the deck forever. Someone's eventually going to bring up a book you didn't read two days ago, or possibly at all. But if you're not smart about that particular thing, is it really that big a deal? Can't you just go, "I guess I'm not an expert in politics," and laugh it off, instead of developing stupid nightmares?

#2.
Adopt And Publicize "Nerdy" Interests

At least some of these things, like academic credentials, might be somewhat related to intelligence. Completely unrelated? Hobbies.
Maybe it's movies or pop culture that's taught us that the smartest people are always really interested in math, science, or philosophy, but that's confusing interests with professions. Sure, a lot of brilliant people go into the fields of mathematics or science, but their favorite hobby might be something lowbrow, like go-kart racing or beer brewing or Ultimate Frisbee.

Via Getty Images

Or belly dancing, why not.
They might study quantum physics or Kant's theories of perception for a living, but they might be equally excited to talk about going camping for the weekend, or something funny their cat did.

Via Getty Images

"We made them take this picture. Then they clawed my eyes out."
If there's someone who's anxiously pushing the conversation toward "intellectual" subjects all the time and seems disgusted at talking about the trivialities of common life, they're less likely to be a brilliant thinker who is beyond childish thoughts and more likely to be someone insecure about their image.
Even more off base are people who notice that smart people tend to be nerdy, and nerdy people tend to like sci-fi and fantasy, and thus play up their love of Star Trek or Joss Whedon or whatever, hoping some of the nerd vibe will rub off on them and add a vague sense of smartness to their image, as if that works.

Via Las Vegas Sun

Seriously, look at these middle-aged losers hanging out at a Star Trek convention. They didn't even dress up.
I'm not saying most fans of these things are doing that. If they're talking about what a great show it is, that's one thing. If they're saying, "I'm such a huge nerd because..." and list those shows along with how much they like math or something, that might be a warning sign.

#1.
Complain About Dumb People

"But isn't that what you're doing in this very column?" you might ask. "IRONY." Actually, there's a difference. I'm complaining about people that try too hard to look smart. They might be dumb or they might actually be pretty smart, that's not the problem.
The problem is that it's way too important to them to prove they're smart, or what they consider to be "smart." And one way they do it is to really go overboard making fun of the "stupid." There are threads and blogs all over the internet complaining about what a society of morons we live in and ripping into buffoons who ask such laughably retarded questions as, "Is the flu going around?" What a dumb question! She's lucky she didn't get SLAPPED RIGHT IN THE FACE!

Via Getty Images

"And THAT'S for asking if we have any NyQuil, you dumb broad!"
Which kind of brings to mind glass houses when another entry shows this blogger might not be that bright herself.
People also get the "too stupid to live" treatment for doing such things as having a funny accent, or mispronouncing a word that's hard to pronounce, or calling customer service to ask the kind of question customer service is there to answer. "Can you BELIEVE she wanted to know what our HOURS were?"

Via Getty Images

"9 TO 5 EASTERN STANDARD TIME, CLOSED SUNDAYS! I HOPE YOU'RE HAPPY, BITCH!"
Or sometimes instead of an anecdote, they just rip into society in general for being vacuous and enjoying such inane tripe as Justin Bieber or Twilight or whatever it's cool to look down on lately, or overexaggerate how influential Donald Trump or Sarah Palin are so they can feel like they are one of the few elites who haven't fallen into the same trap as the rest of dumb America.
But like I said before, there's not such a clean division between "the smart" and "the dumb," since intelligence is so multidimensional. There's a more obvious division between people who can look at their own flaws and people who can only look at others'. Ironically, the latter group, whether smart or dumb to begin with, are never going to get any smarter.
I'm sure this doesn't come as as a surprise to anyone except those wanna-be intellectuals, but people who aren't that smart, yet are honest and easy to get along with, are infinitely more likeable and respected than people who may be smart, but keep annoying the hell out of everyone trying to show it. People do not think less of you for not knowing everything. So maybe sometimes it's a good idea to put away your notecards and see if someone else can tell you something new that you don't know.

For example, did you happen to know that whales are not in fact fish, but mamm- Oh. You did? Dammit.

Physics

As scientists and concerned citizens, we applaud the recent trend towards legislation which requires the prominent placing of warnings on products that present hazards to the general public. Yet we must also offer the cautionary thought that such warnings, however well-intentioned, merely scratch the surface of what is really necessary in this important area. This is especially true in light of the findings of 20th century physics.

We therefore propose that the following list of warnings appears on every product offered for sale in the United States.

WARNING: This Product Warps Space and Time in Its Vicinity.

CAUTION: The Mass of This Product Contains the Energy Equivalent of 85 Million Tons of TNT per Net Ounce of Weight.

HANDLE WITH EXTREME CARE: This Product Contains Minute Electrically Charged Particles Moving at Velocities in Excess of Five Hundred Million Miles Per Hour.

CONSUMER NOTICE: Because of the "Uncertainty Principle," It Is Impossible for the Consumer to Find Out at the Same Time Both Precisely Where This Product Is and How Fast It Is Moving. (Note: This one is optional on the grounds that Heisenburg was never quite sure that his principle was correct)

ADVISORY: There is an Extremely Small but Nonzero Chance That, Through a Process Know as "Tunneling," This Product May Spontaneously Disappear from Its Present Location and Reappear at Any Random Place in the Universe, Including Your Neighbor's Domicile. The Manufacturer Will Not Be Responsible for Damages or Inconvenience That May Result.

ATTENTION: Despite Any Other Listing of Product Contents Found Hereon, the Consumer is Advised That, in Actuality, This Product Consists Of 99.999999999% Empty Space.

PLEASE NOTE: Some Quantum Physics Theories Suggest That When the Consumer Is Not Directly Observing This Product, It May Cease to Exist or Will Exist Only in a Vague and Undetermined State.

HEALTH WARNING: Care Should Be Taken When Lifting This Product, Since Its Mass, and Thus Its Weight, Is Dependent on Its Velocity Relative to the User.

Magical Mishaps, No Worries

Posted by: "Lady Nightshayde" LadyNightshayde9@aol.com   nightshayde99

Thu Jun 9, 2011 10:38 pm (PDT)




Magical Mishaps, No Worries

I don't know about you, but I've done some major magical bloopers in my
time. Here are some tips to prevent mishaps, or if you have made a boo-boo,
ways to fix the problem. Let's run over a few standard reminders first.

Consider fully the ramifications of any magical act, and proceed accordingly.
Spontaneous ritual for acts of honor are fine, but if you have a specific
magical working in mind, take some time to determine exactly what you want to
accomplish, and why.

Always be specific in wording chants, charms, spells or rituals. Remember,
words carry power.

Never call on a deity or archetype that you have not researched first.

If your working has several intricate steps that are new to you, write them
down on a 3 x 5 card. No one will fail you for magical crib notes.

Compose two basic rituals, one for honor and one for a magical working,
tailored to your personal tastes and energies. Use these rituals as
templates for more advanced workings. This way, when you are ready to
perform unfamiliar activities or reaad new passages, the ritual energies will
not drag.

Compose a quickie ritual tailored to your own personal tastes and energies.
We're all busy people and there are times when we cannot take a half hour or
more out of our day to perform a specific working. If you have a short basic
format that you know works, you will be able to do successful magic faster.

Never work magic in anger. It is okay to be angry, and each of us must learn
to process anger in a positive way. One particular magical group I know
waits seven days before working magic on issues that have aroused volatile
emotions. Of course, you can't always wait seven days, but this is a good
rule of broomstick for many of the situations we may encounter.

Fire elementals are not toys. Of the four earthly elements (earth, air,
fire, and water) fire demands respect whether you are a novice or skilled
practitioner. Let's face it, your bowl of salt is not going to jump up and
bite you in the nose, but your fire candle can shoot a flame up your arm and
into your hair in less than two seconds with disastrous results. (I kid you
not, I've seen it happen). I always encourage my students to incorporate
flat stones on their altars as a way of connecting with the Earth, as well as
providing a fire retardant surface for magical workings. Even if your fire
candle does explode (and it can happen) you will have fewer worries if you've
been working on a large, flat stone. Keep a fire extinguisher nearby. Save
the long-sleeved, long-tailed exotic robes for a festival and stick to safe,
smart clothing when working around any type of fire. Be careful, ! also, of
synthetic sweaters. I was conducting a ritual in St. Louis when the flames
literally jumped from the cauldron and flew up a girl's sleeve, raging across
her chest. The fuzz on the synthetic sweater popped and crackled with blue
flame. Luckily, she was okay, but better to be safe than sorry!

Do not use cinnamon oil to anoint yourself or anyone else. Cinnamon oil
burns the skin. I had the privilege to be in circle with Raymond Buckland
where he and I were asked to anoint everyone in the circle. the maiden
handed me the oil and I went about my business, anointing each individual.
Mr. Buckland anointed me with the same oil. Several minutes later I thought
my head was on fire. I realized with a sniff or two that the maiden had
handed me cinnamon oil. Ouch!

When a magical mishap does happen, don't immediately think that bad spirits
or someone you don't like is trying to keep you from succeeding. Most
mistakes are simply errors in judgment. That's all. When I get a letter
from someone who tells me they are cursed, or they lost their power to
someone else, or that another magical person is working against them and
their entire brain matter is in a tizzy, I know that this person hasn't
fully studied magic, and doesn't understand the underlying principles of the
system they have chosen to work with. When things in your life turn to
garbage, you most likely had a hand in it. Sometimes Spirit presents us with
unfortunate circumstances because we are not following our life mission, or
we have chosen the wrong path. Spirit most likely has been giving us
warnings along the way, but we've not paid atention. Thus, the whopper hits
us right be! tween the pentacle and the broomstick. Better to design a ritual
to ask the Lord and Lady to assist you in choosing the right path, and to
assist you in cleaning up the problems you encounter. Asking your spirit
guide or guardian angel to help is also a good idea.

If you goof in circle, keep going. The Sun will not explode because you said
the wrong word, walked in the wrong direction, or used an incompatible deity.
The worst that could happen is nothing at all, so don't sweat it.

Laughter in the circle is a good thing. If you trip over your own tongue, or
your delicate little feet, laugh and keep going.

If you forgot an item or a tool, think twice before you cut the door to go
get the missing item. Perhaps you weren't meant to use it in the first place.

Let the words "be prepared" be your Witch-Scout motto, and if you do mess up,
just breeze right through it. You'll be fine.

*Laws of Parenting*

1. The later you stay up, the earlier your child will
wake up the next morning.

2. For a child to become clean, something else must
become dirty.

3. Toys multiply to fill any space available.

4. The longer it takes you to make a meal, the less
your child will like it.

5. Yours is always the only child who doesn't behave.

6. If the shoe fits...it's expensive.

7. The surest way to get something done is to tell a
child not to do it.

8. The gooier the food, the more likely it is to end
up on the carpet.

9. Backing the car out to the driveway causes your
child to have to go to the bathroom.

Aromatherapy Tip

Thu Jun 9, 2011 10:45 pm (PDT)




To fill each room with a sweet scent, fill a length of panty hose loosely
with your favorite spice blend, tie it at both ends and place it inside an air vent.

Research has shown that through the five major senses of the body, the
sensations that are received can affect a person's mood. Numerous studies
have also suggested that scents are actually highly correlated to how a
person's brain interprets physical and emotional sensations, and therefore
pleasant smells can work to reduce depression in those suffering from mood
disorders and increase energy in those suffering from fatigue. But
alternatively, they say, unpleasant smells can work to heighten these
negative sensations.

CT Senate decriminalizes marijuana possession

HARTFORD (AHN) - Afer five hours of debate, on Tuesday Connecticut became the 13th state in the Union to decriminalize marijuana. The state's House of Representatives passed new legislation and Governor Dan Malloy is expected to sign off on it.

The House voted 90 to 57 in favor of SB 1014.

According to the new rules first-time offenders caught in possession of less than a half-ounce of pot will be hit with a 150 ticket; repeat offenders would get at least $200 but a maximum of 500 per offense. If you're under 21, you'll get a two-month suspension of your driver's license.

"Final approval of this legislation accepts the reality that the current law does more harm than good — both in the impact it has on people's lives and the burden it places on police, prosecutors and probation officers of the criminal justice system," Malloy said in the statement.

State Sen. Toni Boucher (R-Wilton) in a statement on her website said that decriminalization sends the wrong message to the state's youth about the risks of marijuana use.

"What kind of message does this send to our children?" Senator Boucher said in the statement. "This law undermines a fundamental lesson that our schools, social service programs and parents teach our children: that taking drugs is bad for you."

Connecticut's non-partisan Office of Fiscal Analysis however estimates the bill will save the state nearly $1 million in court costs and attorney salaries and net upwards of $1.4 million in new fines and fees.

Additionally the cottage industry of convenience stores is sure to benefit from the passage.
