So, Glamour Magic.

In my research, this is what I’ve concluded on the topic of Glamours. There is plenty of debate as to what a Glamour actually is, whether there are different types, whether they’re toxic and manipulative. This is merely my views on the subject and as always I encourage you to cross reference.

So what is a Glamour spell? Glamour spells are a form of craft which change how yourself and other people perceive you. They do not actually change your appearance beyond the mundane aspects of the spell. For example a commonly used Glamour tends to be an intentional positive affirmation. It is an affirmation that is charged with the energy and intention of changing your level of attraction.

A Glamour that would actually change your physical appearance via the mundane steps of the spell would be wearing nail polish with the color corresponding to how you want to be viewed by others. Yellow would represent joy whilst red would correspond to sensuality and passion.

━─━────༺༻────━─━

Here are a few Glamour spells you may be able to cast right now!

-

>Enchanting Jewelry

Step one: Cleanse. There are many ways you can cleanse your jewelry via covering it in salt for a few hours, smoke cleansing, water cleansing or all of the above. Get those negative energies as far from your piece of jewelry as possible (note: Make sure your jewelry won't rust whilst cleansing if you choose to use methods other than smoke. 

Step two: Intention. Hold your jewelry cupped within your hands and push into it the intention and energy of what you’re trying to achieve, be it general attractiveness, confidence, etc. 

Step three: Wear it! Wear the jewelry with pride and when you’re feeling down about yourself, remember your spell has your back.

-

>Nail polish

Step one: Decide. Choose an intention and research what color corresponds with said intention. You can wear nail art with different colors for more complex spells or simply wear pink to look more innocent. 

Step two: Wear it! It’s literally that easy.

- 

>Makeup

This one is sort of a combo of the other two. Allow me to explain.

Step one: Cleanse your makeup. Unfortunately your options are pretty much limited to smoke cleansing lest you ruin your makeup. If you’re able to get creative and find another means of cleansing that’s great! However, If you’re able- smoke would be the easiest

Step two(revisited:)  Intention. Hold your makeup item cupped within your hands and push into it the intention and energy of what you’re trying to achieve, be it general attractiveness, confidence, etc. 

Step three: Boost. For an added boost use color correspondence. Pick your intention, and research what colors correspond. If you’re looking to appear bold and confident, use warm colors for your eyeshadow such as red or orange. Add yellow for a boost of child-like happiness others will envy. 

Use black eyeliner for protection, brown to make you appear dependable, blue to appear bold and collected. Etc, you can find limitless charts on color correspondence on Pinterest or Tumblr. 

━─━────༺༻────━─━

Remember Glamours are meant to boost what you already have. So look deep within yourself and remember: you are beautiful, you are stunning, you shine and nothing will ever change that.

I forgot how much Mike Yates is prevalent in Planet of the Spiders and it makes me very happy that he does get some form of a redemption arc. Or at least healing arc.

everyone will always be haunted by what they are and i believe it is far more beneficial to embrace the haunting (as long as it isn't derailing your life or others') than to strive to be a truly "balanced" person. the idea of someone who is truly equalised to the point of utter harmony is an essentially unachievable thing imo

Summary of Atomic Habits by James Clear. This book examines the psychology and science behind how habits form and provides practical strategies to build good habits and break bad ones.

➰The Habit Loop

Habits form through a simple loop - cue, craving, response, reward. Identifying these components allows us to reshape habits.

◾◼️⬛The Compounding Power of Small Changes

Atomic habits are tiny changes that accumulate into remarkable results, like compound interest. Focus on small improvements consistently.

💠Making Habits Obvious

Create visual reminders and cues. Make good habits visible and bad habits invisible. Harness habit stacking and temptation bundling.

─────────────────────────────

"Before we continue, please suggest in the comment section what book I should summarize next."

─────────────────────────────

📈Increasing Desire and Frequency

Make habits attractive. Add satisfaction and enjoyment to the habit routine. Leverage our natural cravings and sense of identity.

🔕Shaping Your Environment

Design your environment and context to make good habits easy and bad habits difficult. Control cues, remove triggers.

📐Measuring Habits

Tracking habits creates awareness that leads to improvement. Monitor progress, but focus on consistency over perfection.

⌛Maintaining Habits Long-Term

Habit change is a slow process of small tweaks iterated over time. Make tiny changes and build momentum. Don't quit at the first sign of struggle.

🤝The Role of Community

Surround yourself with people who have positive habits. Leverage accountability partners. Make habit change social.

😇Skill vs. Habit

Focus on building diligent habits over talent. Maintain high standards and emotional commitment to fuel motivation.

💯Avoiding Extremes

Allow for flexibility and balance in habits. Habits support but don't fully define your identity. Moderation helps habits last.

Full Moon - December 15th, 2024

December 15th Full Moon

Each Full Moon has a tendency to bring with it disruption.  It is a time that is naturally turbulent and can trigger rebellious energy.  People are more prone to pick a fight or to get triggered into reactive and aggressive spaces.

This Full Moon calls us to create more balance and harmony in our life.  It favors us getting out and having fun and doing things that inspire us.  It is a great time to engage our creative energy and to connect with all forms of the arts.  Writing, speaking, cooking, dancing, singing, playing or listening to music are all favored.  We do need to be careful where we are feeling chemistry with others.  While it is possible that we are experiencing a true alchemical connection of Soul Energy; it is more likely that others are being charismatic to get something from us.  Only time will tell if there is a true connection or not.

This can be a good time for working with others on things.  It is the blending of skills and wisdom from a variety of people that will bring strong successes.  However, we do need to be careful of those that want to engage in power battles.  These are the people that are not really working with others but seek to have power and control over them.  They see themselves as superior to others and that can lead them to become tyrannical when they are not getting what they want.  The key is to work side-by-side with others to help them become more self-sufficient.  We want to give people an opportunity to learn many different things and to open up more opportunities for them.

Many people will be in a kind and caring space today.  They are not interested in the turbulence or those that try to inhibit or disrupt peace within others.  It is through this influence that we can meet a true love or others that are working from unconditional love.  These connections may not feel as “magical” at first; but they are the ones that can end up being true partners that are able to ride the highs and lows of everyday life.  When they make a commitment, they make it for life.  Their love is shown in everyday things; and through pure acceptance of all of our quirks.  In many ways they will help to harmonize us or balance us.  This is great because they will have strengths that we don’t and we will have ones that they don’t.

We are likely to find some very strong connections with our past right now.  We may even see people from our past resurface at this time; but we will have to use discernment to see where they are at now and if they can fit into the direction that we are going.  It can be a great time for reconciling things.  It can also shed light on where things went awry for us.  The key is that we take the time to really observe things and ask some important questions.  We want to consider what changes have been made from that time, where are things currently, and consider if they need to stay in the past or if they have a place in our future.  We are being called to make the effort to change what needs to change so that we can move ourselves forward in a positive direction.  We need to find ways to make peace with our past and with or without them moving forward with us.

This Full Moon is Void of Course; which means that it technically is not in a specific sign, even though many traditional astrologers will still assign it to one.  I have always found this to be a time where things can either be shaken up a bit or open us to possibilities that are not often available to us.  In some ways, it represents purely free energy since it is not restricted by other influences.  In codes, this is an influence that calls us to be more in observation and to consider the value of a variety of viewpoints.  It can help us to get a better understanding on the whole picture of something; instead of just one piece or side to a story.

At this time, we find this energy is calling us to focus on our own journey.  It is a call for us to release our addictive patterns and to find healthy ways of dealing with the stress and anxiety that is present.  It is a great opportunity to honor a personal retreat that offers nutritious food, fresh air, connection with nature, and the opportunity to process our thoughts and emotions.  We will do best if we disconnect from technology and electronics as much as possible.  These things will only interfere with our thoughts and feed addictive programming to us.  If we take this time for our own well-being and re-affirm our commitment to God, furthering Divine Presence, and the Soul Self; then we can move past addictions and long-standing challenges that we have dealt with.  We allow ourselves to move further onto the Soul’s Path.

Some things can become stagnant or delayed.  This just calls us to take a closer look at where we are living in lies and being manipulated by others.  It is important that we take a break to focus on developing and strengthening our Spiritual Attributes.  As we do this, we will come into using our power wisely; which will then unfold bigger blessings for us.  If we try to push forward in greed and taking advantage of others, we will only bring ourselves to take hard falls.  Success is possible and may come from friends and partners in our life.  We will find that our true relationships are supporting us as long as we are providing quality work in integrity and doing things from a space of Divine Service.

I welcome you to create more balance and harmony in your life.  What if we nurture this through creative energy?

I welcome you to work side-by-side with others to increase self-sufficiency for yourself and others.  What if this allows for learning and opens up more opportunities?

I welcome you to open to those that balance and harmonize you in positive ways.  What if this allows you to learn from each other and strengthen each other through unconditional love and acceptance?

I welcome you to consider what the connection is between aspects of your past that are resurfacing and your current life.  What if this is an opportunity to reconcile things, make peace with your past, and to see the changes that you need to make before moving forward?

I welcome you to focus on your own journey and needs.  What if this is a time to re-affirm your commitment to God, supporting Divine Presence, and the Soul Self?

I welcome you to look closely at where you are living in lies and being manipulated by others.  What if this is a misuse of your power and it is blocking you from having true success from integrity and Divine Service?

In the Northern Hemisphere, we have the Cold Moon, Moon Before Yule, and the Long Night Moon.  In the energy of the Cold Moon, there is likely to be stress and anxiety surfacing for many people.  This can lead them to turn to drugs and other addictions due to viewing life as miserable.  However, it will also bring some to renew their commitment to God and the Soul Self.  If we allow the stress to polish us, then we will be able to have true victory over our challenges and set ourselves onto a favorable path.  All of this is leading us to stand in truth and integrity and to step away from those that are working in lies, deceit and manipulation for personal gain.  This energy calls people to lay down paths of corruption and addiction for that which provides true happiness.

In the energy of the Moon Before Yule, people will be considering how to shift their life in order to have more freedom.  They are done with the restrictions, confinement, bullies, abusers, and manipulators.  This is a time where we need to get our priorities straight and to come into Divine Alignment.  It is only through developing and strengthening Spiritual Attributes that we will find peace.  At this time, we may not be able to fully bring down those that are controlling others; even if their plans are on hold.  We may need to remove our light and support of places that allow this and move onto other things.  The important part is that we do not cave in and comply.  In the end, they will bring their downfall; and this is one of those times where we may need to simply get out of the way and find those situations where people are rooted in unconditional love, truth, and integrity.

In the energy of the Long Night Moon, people are more likely to want time alone to process things that are happening in their life.  We are likely to be experiencing transitions from a material existence to a spiritual existence.  Life can feel a bit tough due to physical and financial challenges.  It is important that we keep in mind that everything is as it needs to be and we simply need to embrace the journey that we are on.  This can be a great time to give up excesses by choice and to start focusing on experiencing more of life and things of true value.

I welcome you to allow the stress and anxiety to polish you.  What if this is where you can have true victory over your challenges?

I welcome you to take your light to where it will be appreciated instead of abused.  What if it will become even stronger in situations that are rooted in unconditional love, truth, and integrity?

I welcome you to embrace your journey; even if it feels challenging right now.  What if it will connect you with things of true value?

In the Southern Hemisphere, we have the Strawberry Moon, Honey Moon, and the Rose Moon.  In the energy of the Strawberry Moon, we are likely experience chaos, turbulence and unexpected upheaval.  People may be more dramatic and seeking attention.  We may need to work with others to restore harmony through calming others down.  Some may choose to separate from others or may be outcast by them if they are unwilling to reside in the drama.  This is okay.  Embrace this shift and the spiritual processes that are part of it.  This can lead to some beautiful restructuring in our lives, that offers us greater freedom, simplicity, gratitude, authenticity, and connection with nature and its processes.  We want use this time to focus on ourselves, our health, and what holds true value for us.

In the energy of the Honey Moon, life feels heavy.  This is most noticeable around family, jealous siblings, and those that are strongly rooted in materialism and needing recognition.  It is important that we handle the things that need to get done; but we also will want to do that from our Soul Self.  Others may try to break our Spirit and distract us with their own personal wants and desires from us.  We are not here to be their slaves and to do everything for them.  This means that we need to be responsible and meet our own obligations and responsibilities; but we also need to say no to those that are just trying to take advantage of us and guilt us into doing things for them.

In the energy of the Rose Moon, we find that lies, deception, and manipulation create a lot of stress and anxiety.  This can leave us feeling like we are walking on eggshells or through a mine field.  The key is to keep standing in truth and integrity; as this will protect us and keep us safe from the attempts that others make to sabotage us.  It is important that we stay connected with God, Divine Presence, and the Soul Self; as this will allow us to be victorious over anything that tries to tempt us or that is challenging us.  This is nothing more than an uncomfortable test; and if we choose to let it polish us, we will come out stronger than before.

I welcome you to work with others to restore harmony and to calm others.  What if this will also help to diffuse any potential danger from those who are seeking attention?

I welcome you to handle what needs to get done from the Soul Self.  What if this allows you to meet your obligations and responsibilities while having the strength to say no to those that are just trying to take advantage of you?

I welcome you to see how being connected with God, Divine Presence, and the Soul Self will help you to be victorious in anything.  What if this allows your challenges to polish you and lets you come out stronger than before?

Energy Work... What is it?

As you progress in your exploration of witchcraft, you will fall upon many conclusions and notice various resemblances in energy from individual to individual. You will begin to recognize the unique significance you attribute to various correspondences. You may begin to fall upon the conclusion different colors represent different states of being to you as opposed to your colleague within the craft. For instance, the color red may not always symbolize passion or anger for you, yellow might be symbolic of psychic power, and purple could convey a sense of caution. While, yes, there are charts that live amongst literature instructing you as to what hues and textures represent what emotions and mental states, these connections are wholly subjective. Energy is often perceived as a spectrum of colors and materials that could mean something entirely different to you compared to someone else. It primarily revolves around individual viewpoints arriving at the same result or inference. 

I tend to visualize energy as a radiant mist exuding various shades. However, in extreme cases, one's energy may reshape the texture of the energy I sense. Moreover, these hues help portray the emotions I sense from the mist or substance. For instance, to interpret a friend's energy, I could describe the sensation as such: "Your energy mirrors that of an innocent child, filled with curiosity, optimism about the future, and abundant love for the world. Nonetheless, it feels somewhat empty, perhaps due to a recent deep wound inflicted upon you by someone close. It appears you may be seeking solace and support from others who may not be equipped to meet your needs, which in turn intensifies your feelings of desertion." Alternatively, I could interpret it simply as: "Your energy feels a mix of yellow and blue, and slightly melancholic. Do you want to discuss it?

In essence, energy sensing refers to the capacity to perceive the external energies in your surroundings. This involves detecting energies from plants, objects, stones, and people. Why is this important? For those who practice magick, energy sensing is utilized to recognize and perceive energies outside their own that they might want to engage with. This is evident when you ask a plant for permission before taking something from it, or when you try to understand what a crystal can provide you. Conversely, it can be employed in vampiric rituals. Energy sensing finds its use in divination or spirit work, and can also be utilized by energy healers to support medication and identify energy obstructions and toxins, thus allowing a more effective mental and physical healing process.

Energy sensing can let you work with spirits, nature, deities, energy healing, tarot reading, and anything outside of the self. 

We as people and everything around us are made of energy. We can work with this energy in various methods, some people are going to be naturally better at energy sensing than others. This is seen in empaths, vampires, and sensitive people in general. 

In short, energy sensing is essentially advanced empathy. This empathy extends to those who have closed themselves off, those who are unsure of their own energetic current, plants and even inanimate objects. I hope this somewhat clears the way for your personal practice in energy work. 

Farewell!  <3
