Subject: [Witch_Essentials] New Moon Rising Magazine

New Moon Rising, A Journal of Pagan Thought & Magick, since 1989 has been committed to being a vital international stimulus in the continuing Pagan Renaissance as an intelligent forum on Magick, Pagan culture, history and practice. It aligns with no particular school or tradition, only seeking to explore all within their own paradigms. NMR is a print magazine with the first ten years available online for free on our website: www.NMRJournal.com.

NMR has always been on the vanguard and will continue to be so. We are turning our direction more towards exploring magick and classical paganism in a serious but not overly scholastic vein.

We always welcome submission of quality articles and art.

We are actively looking for authors of short pieces and most especially, book and media reviews. Many of today's most popular and prominent authors found their start in our pages. Visit our website for Submission Guidelines

NMR is published bimonthly and is available individually or in subscription at www.NMRising.com/catalog

Sacred Boar Lore

Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM   chic0411

Sun Oct 30, 2011 1:03 am (PDT)



Sacred Boar Lore
Incense of the day: Sage
 
In Celtic spiritual
tradition, the boar was one of the most sacred animals of the Samhain
season. It was especially associated with the Sacred Hunt that took
place in the weeks leading up to the Celtic New Year on November 1. The
boar represented strength, courage, and determination. Magical boars
appeared in the forest to lead people into magical adventures. In Welsh
legend, King Arthur and his warriors pursue the supernatural boar Twrch
Trwyth. The Gaulish goddess Arduinna, who presided over the Ardennes
forest, was portrayed riding a wild boar. Recite this prayer to invoke
personal power and the wisdom of nature, especially that spiritual power which comes from 0therworld encounters:
 
I will wash my face in the nine rays of the Sun.
I will travel in the name of the gods.
In likeness of deer,
In likeness of horse,
In likeness of serpent,
In likeness of boar.

Goddess of The Day: - Nicneven  Halloween (Various Locations)

Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM   chic0411

Sun Oct 30, 2011 8:46 pm (PDT)



Goddess of The Day:- Nicneven
Halloween (Various
Locations)
 
Themes: Protection;
Ghosts; Divination; Peace; Winter
Symbols: Pumpkins; Gourds;
Traditional Halloween Fare
About Nicneven: In Scotland,
Nicneven is the Crone goddess of Samhain, which is the predecessor of
modern Halloween festivals. Nicneven governs the realms of magic and
witchcraft and also represents the imminent onset of winter. 
To Do Today: In magic and Celtic traditions, this is the new year - a
time when the veil between worlds grows thin and spirits can communicate with
the living. Follow the usual customs of carving a pumpkin or turnip for
protection and to illuminate the way for family spirits to join you in today's
celebrations.
In druidical tradition, Samhain was a time to
rectify any matters causing dissent. Nicneven provides the magical glue for this
purpose. Take a white piece of paper on which you've written the reason for
anger in a relationship, then burn it in any hallowed fire source (the pumpkin
candle, or ritual fires). As you do, ask Nicneven to empower the spell and
destroy the negativity completely.
To inspire Nicneven's
wisdom or magical aptitude within, enjoy traditional Halloween fare - apple
pie, for example, brings sagacity. Sparkling apple cider tickles magical
energy. And root crops provide solid foundations and protection while magical
creatures are afoot!

Mask Exploration Ritual

Posted by: "Cher Chirichello" CHIC0411@YAHOO.COM   chic0411

Sun Oct 30, 2011 8:47 pm (PDT)



Mask Exploration Ritual
  Tonight is Samhain,
the night of spirits. People dress up in masks to prevent malign entities from recognizing
anyone and to scare them away. Masks can reveal who we are deep inside, or
allow us to impersonate something we're not. Masks employ some of the oldest
magic known to humanity. They even appear in cave paintings! Find two plain
white masks. Collect some art supplies, such as colored pencils or markers,
glitter-glue, sequins, feathers, and so on. One mask in meant to represent your
true nature and your inner self. The other represents your outer self, the face
you present to the world. Decorate your masks, one at a time, taking care to
express in each mask these different aspects of yourself. Now explore. Try on
the masks and look in a mirror. How does each make you feel? Hold the masks so
that they are facing each other. What might your inner and outer selves say to
each other? The first rule of magic is "To know," so start by knowing
yourself!  ~Elizabeth Barrette

Samhain is the time of year we remember, we name, we honor, and speak with the dead. I want to ask anyone that is

You may also share photos of your ancestors/ loved ones on our page all day Halloween and share memories with us.....

Happy and Blessed Samhain!
