Mirror magic used to reflect deflect and look into the world of spirit. Every one nowadays as a mirror of too not a tool for the wealthy anymore. Doesn't have to be a mirror a simple reflection from anything such the blank screen of a mobile phone computer acreen a television or even looking in to water source like a river pond well or a bowl of water reflection of any kind is key.


My mirror magic spell banish repel deflect The magic mirror box,Ā  mirrors fixed on all sides with broken mirror pieces inside the box only because i like smashing things up you can build up the energy smashing things up, the person information you want to repel or get information out of , Saturn evengry or mercury depending on what you desire.

Tis the Season of the witch


It as been sometime since I blogged but I want to talk about my favourite fruit the apple.


The apple as a very lengthy and interesting history with so many meanings and associations attached here some highlights in the apple history and a simple ritual you can do.


In Greek the apple means tree of fruit and its associations include knowledge temptation desire. The Romans associate the apple with Venus the God of Love. So you working on Friday or with Venus energy add a little apple in to your soellwork for that extra piece of Love.


Apples have been used in medicine and magic practices for many years. Within witchcraft the apple associations include Love healing immortality knowledge and wisdom.


The apple holds within its seeds the prefect pentagram a symbol used for protection earth air fire water and its bounding to spirit.…

A Fishing Failure


https://lostianvs.dreamwidth.org/8024.html


Wherein I fail to adapt a spell to catch fish from Picatrix and get laughed at by some river fish.


CliffsNotes

  1. Combine Jupiter, Luna, Mercury, and Pisces to attract and trap fish.

  2. Over committing your attention to the trap and forgetting about the actual goal (the fish!) is a recipe for failure.


Drawing from the Well of Time


https://lostianvs.dreamwidth.org/8419.html


Having established the "bed" portion of my Bed, Bath and Beyond celestial magic project, this post moves on to the "bath." I used the nativity of the Baths of Caracalla as a formula to enchant some bath salts.


CliffsNotes

  1. I learned an important lesson about patience. I already understood that all workings take time and that we have some ability to tweak that time. But, I can still be caught by surprise when my decisions don't play out the way I expected.

  2. It's beginning to become apparent to me that these celestial magic workings are imbuing objects with a kind of low-level spirit. These spirits are something less than a full blown god or daimon, but something more than just a spell.

A Necromantic Rite


https://lostianvs.dreamwidth.org/7317.html


Synchronicities abound, as they do in the Thoth Community. I wrote this post weeks ago, but it seems more relevant now. Compared to my other astrological explorations, this working is much more straight forward. I stumbled across an abandoned site in the forest and, inspired by a passage in Picatrix, I used an impromtu necromantic spell to consort with some vestigial spirits.


CliffsNotes

  1. A mytho-poetic approach to astrological magic seems to suit my practice more than traditional elections.

  2. Targeted memorization and its effects on my subtle bodies is becoming a cornerstone of my practice.

I think you may greatly have misunderstood.


Someone, I ā€˜was’ very close to is an adult worker. She has psychological reasons rather than monetary ones, as many do from what I gather from those in the know.


I have met, worked and socialised with several different types of adult worker. I can say that I've liked them all, which is unusual baring in mind I don't much like ā€˜MOST’ people. However when I do I love with all of my heart.


I can't think of many I would say had a foosty energy. I think this is where you are misunderstanding me. Whatever I picked up on was rancid and sexual. I am not calling you names either!


Although as aforementioned in January there was something weirdly familiar about the feeling I got today. It’s not coloured by my mood I’m in excellent emotional fetal.


I'm a very strange witch I probably know far more about sex magic and energy transference than most. I am and always was really very choosy about who I allow to touch me or who I will touch. I know that has become magnified since 2018. I was duped and it will forever effect me, not because of them but because of me. I allowed it to happen. It’s about me not them, I’m not giving them the power.


I can count on one hand who I will allow physically close to me. I completely understand the metaphysics in a sexual union, some might say I’m balls deep in how strongly I feel about it. šŸ˜‰ I have to inject humour some might say it’s a defence, but I just make myself laugh. What I choose or think for me isn’t necessarily how I feel about others.


I watch people lie consistent mirroring me and I know their stories aren’t true because they are my stories. Or stories they have built around mine. To be a good liar you have to be consistent and I will use a lie to trip up a liar.


This was a helpful conversation, Lost because the waters were starting to leak I have been trying to speak for months to tell someone what happened in 2022 and this has silenced me.


Thank you, I am most grateful because I have been doing everything in my power to break the silence, which oddly made me quiet and obviously a bigger part of me knows ā€˜To know, To dare, To will, To keep Silent and that’s why I haven’t been able to say anything. Although in this case I would be telling someone about their magic.


There’s a very deep person behind the username Little Delphi and I think you might have misinterpreting me. So I will try again, you have something sexual and parasitic in your energy. I won't guess but I think... I might know.

A Spirit of Wealth


A contribution to the recent discourse on money in our community. This post was originally going to be a later chapter of my "Bed, Bath, and Beyond" celestial magic project, but given recent topics it felt more appropriate now.

https://lostianvs.dreamwidth.org/7666.html


CliffsNotes (i.e. implications on my personal practice)

  1. My previously constructed natural magic talismans are useful as permanent and reusable magical material

  2. The Zodiac model is an effective way to tweak the specific expressions of planetary influence in spells.

I am not coming at this from your perspective I grew up with everything a girl could desire, as a young adult I was a very rich bitch and I could command money - didn’t make me happy in the slightest. Major Money block. I see money as something that can be utilised to take advantage of my nature.


🄓🤯 Now Lost don’t go taking umbrage but reading that I felt like I just navigated the astral in Nuclear submarine with a DU leak and now the Quabballah is crying.


I mean you and Roomie absolutely no harm. 100% truth.


I hope for you both, a gaseous nebula collapse; I wish on that star for you to have abundance in absolutely everything positive.

Bed, Bath, and Beyond


As I continue to systematize my practice, I've chosen to follow my natural magic project with a celestial magic project. This post documents a method I use to apply astrological mechanics to spell crafting. In this case, I tweak a sleep spell. It's a bit technical and may not be this audience's cup of tea, but I thought I would share it.

No wonder worked, I’d be knackered after all that work.


My approach was much less work and I also pinned something to my bed that I was given.


Something very special about spending time with people who calm the chaos and let you off the leash to run about daft.


Good Company, good food, and proper restful sleep.


Anyway today is already not going my way, but I’m sure a Bath as apposed to the place will help.


P.S You did surprise me that you didn’t link the pineal gland with a pine cone. A lot of what is said under Thoth Umbrella surprises me. 😳

Talisman of Peace


https://lostianvs.dreamwidth.org/6944.html


The final chapter of my natural magic "thesis" project features the natural powers of Saturn. Here I tap into the powers of Sleep (Death's brother) to create an item I can use to get up to some mischief.


The last 10 weeks have been fun. I think I've learned a lot about what natural magic means to me and how planetary energies manifest in the material world. I've also gone a long way towards systematizing my practice and coming up with a few stock methods I can use to perform flexible magic in a variety of scenarios.


With this short semester concluded, I think I'll have a summer break and take some time to reflect.

A Money Making Servitor


Throw back to Witch Wars 6 - Fort Knox. This was my entry.

It involved crafting a three headed spirit, cursing a forest, and playing a game of bait-and-switch. Not a great success, but a learning experience nonetheless.

ā€˜I could feel something coursing through my body, like blood after a hard run. My sense of smell felt more refined. This is a strange talisman that I'll need more time to explore.’


That’s brilliant. At the beginning of this post, I thought the scents changed again. It’s more earthy with a fresh sweat smell, not the unpleasant bacterial whiff of Body odour. There was also heat from the post, not dry heat like a sauna but heat like when you run a bath at full temperature, close the door, and return as the tub is nearly complete on opening the door, the steam hits you. I don’t think that the reference point for the pore opening is the same. I need to explore what I mean by pour opening. šŸ˜

So while, I'm taking action no one else is. 2hrs 1 minute of listening to horrendous music. When will it end, I suppose taking action and putting the phone down might work.

Natural Magic


https://lostianvs.dreamwidth.org/5706.html


As I work to complete a set of natural magic talismans to use for spells and magical cultivation, I decided to stop and reflect on my understanding of "natural" magic as presented by Agrippa in Book I of his Three Books. I find descriptions of magic often carry a hint of the author's moral framework. Agrippa himself pays a lot of lip-service to "God" in his books, though I think his letters allow some room to interpret why he did this and what (who?) he meant.


What I find concerning is when author's implicitly moralize magic by appealing to notions of human supremacy or inferiority. I've often seen "natural" magic described as concerning things "outside" the human sphere. It's as if they believe that humanity is somehow "unnatural." As if human beings could be separate from the natural systems that birthed them. I've also seen descriptions that…

Talisman of Discipline


The fifth part of my natural magic project features Mars.


https://lostianvs.dreamwidth.org/5551.html


This project has been interesting. In my practice, I often go on various "quests" without much expectation for what I may find. This particular project has seemed to yield more than what I've put into it. On the other hand, perhaps I'm seeing years of practice and cultivation bear fruit.


I've seen in some traditions the concept of spell cultivation. That is, instead of creating a spell on-the-fly or maintaining a catalogue of thousands of spells, you nurture a small collection of general purpose spells. This was not my plan going into this project, but it has been one of the results.


The little charms I wrote were originally meant to activate the talismans. I've found I can put them to use in other ways. The solar charm has worked as a general purpose healing spell.…

LOL The ambiguity and multiple entendre was very much "by design."


My relationship with Venusian energies has evolved over the years. Tapping into this current is more like riding a wave for me. I prefer to open up the flood gate and figure out how to manage the water once it arrives. Some practitioners may be uncomfortable with the lack of predictability, but I prefer it over more compulsory methods. The "spice of life" and all that. :)

Very interesting Lost. However you are getting more freaky with the subject matter. I know Liam is aware I have a cheap copy of the book but he probably thinks I use it for decoration.


I can't be bothered creating my own post and there's no one here anyway. If there ever was.


I'm currently not partaking in any psychic work as I've decided to take a break after an amusing incident with the Delphites. They have also changed their position on certain opinion which made me rethink my approach.


Moreover, I made an error in a reading where the querent appeared as two individuals, causing confusion. Even after several attempts, the same cards kept showing up.


However, I'm not worried about it. I have taken charge of the situation and written my thoughts in a letter, which I have sealed and my son signed on all the possible opening points.


I'm feeling vibrant, joyful, and playful, and people around me have noticed the change. I have decided to take a break from my routine and embrace the mystery of life. Some people suggested that I create my narrative, but I believe it's better to let the magic unfold itself.


In short, I'm confident in my decision to take a break, and I'm excited to see what the universe has in store for me.


I've got reading and research to do.

When was this work done? Iā€˜m curious because I was busy with knights of the crusades day before yesterday which oddly lead me to Florence Nightengale and the Crimean war. Lady with the lamp, and wishing I was a grain of sand and just now I’m listening to

and someone else is talking about grains of sand.

I’m still trying to pull my practice into some kind of semblance of … something that makes sense.


ln other news I lost the war and Liam won. While I’m sat on the floor wondering wondering how this happened and I’m blaming The Witcher,


I imagine Liam is laughing him self stupid and The Witcher has that sly smile that lights up her face from time to time.

Anyway, it took nearly 4 years to take me down completely. Meh

This sort of work is very old magic and rarely talked about, both back then, and now.


Congratulations on your successful magical working. It is a tough one for those who have never taken the time to contemplate and truly understand their thoughts and feelings on inter-fearing with other peoples lives.


This is very old school witchcraft, and it’s important to remember that. We see much love-n-light but witchcraft of the past has always been linked closely to survival practices, and although in the Western World we often don’t need to deal with this sort of case, it’s left for the Doctors (although of course there are cases in Ireland), this is an unusual case that I think people can learn a lot from.


Mices when the cats away a directionaless little ā€˜pest’ Delphi goes all Instawitch. šŸ˜


For a witch always accused of doing nothing I seem to have a great deal of workings. So I put some of them together along with the recent working..

Storytime, direct from the Department of Magical Mayhem and Mischief (Liam renamed the Little Dark Witches Hovel) is slightly brighter now.


Like atuesdsys post, it is linked to Liam's

course or I wouldn't be posting. Just in case you think I've just suddenly sprung to a magical life. I see magic where most people don't and it isn't always a positive thing. šŸ™„


So I decided on Wednesday, to make it cordial, lemongrass and ginger, magical of course but I will leave you to figure out what I was up to.


So there I was creating and busy wondering why today I had chosen this project when boom šŸ’£ I'm thinking about Hekate. Wondering what she wanted me for I was asked do you need some help? I'm thinking, this is all good thanks. I don't need any more spiritual interaction. Apparently, that wasn't the right answer and I was rewarded by receiving a tiny shard of glass in a toe on my right foot. I thought better of cheeking Herkate, best let her assist. She just seemed to be observing.


The last time I met Hekate I ended up finding 3 Allen keys, on a roundabout (traffic calming/crossroad) and then proceeded to lose all of mine. Liam corrected me to hex keys, not Allen keys. When he asked me I had imagined ā€˜a skeleton key’ on looking it up today, today because I had little interest in Hekate previously, I thought that was clever guesswork šŸ™„ I've had quite enough of Gehenna, Hades and the rest to last several lifetimes.


The downside of working with ginger is it attracts Toadies, (aphrodisiac) I forgot to shield from Toadies. Top Toadie returned and promptly was chased and has gone. Well not quite and I didn't use the magical phrases ā€˜align yourself peasant or I'm a goddess worship me’ I miss some magic there or did I šŸ˜‰


Maybe that was what Hekate was observing for.


So has anyone else been partaking in additional magical practice for the course work? Is anyone else actually doing the course?

I can’t quite say what spell I did first . But I remember vividly my first experience that changed everything for me . Turned my world upside down and left me partially submerged in the magickal abyss of the cosmos . Half drowning half full of curiosity …and a glimpse of purpose for the first time .


I was suffering from severe migraines from my military days . Daily migraines that destroyed me . They say there are seven different types of migraines and when I was full on I had symptoms of all 7. Straight up , it’s scary to physically hurt that much and to that extreme . Needless to say , dark days for the keeper of runes . Before he knew he kept them . I was contemplating forfeiting , seriously contemplating and balancing the weight of that choice .


A friend of mines wife was First Nations . Comanche . And she pulled me to the side and suggested meditation . It took me several weeks to get my head silent and be able to hold an image or thought without having intrusions . Once there I was over the moon excited I accomplished it . She then gave me an upstairs meditation exercise. And once I visualized the stairs going UP they climbed for ages . The one thing she prepped me for that I still use to this day , whatever you meet good or bad , thank them for there time and move out .


Once I got to a door , a large wooden one . Trying to be detailed so that I can remember clearly for a new visit , it’s time . I knocked . The door opened but it was dark inside . I heard a voice tell me to take a nap . That voice was my own . That was disappointing . I thanked me for my time and started down the stairs . When back in physical I opened my eyes and I was exhausted . A tired I have become familiar with . It’s a special type of tired behind the eyes . So heavy you can’t keep them open .


The second I closed my eyes here , I opened them fully elsewhere . I was fully piloting a body . A body that felt like my own but wasn’t . I saw as I see now , I felt things, I smelled things I tasted them in the air . It was the most real experience to date .


I came from the woods. On foot . Into what I want to call a village . Huts . Very primitive . I was greeted at the entrance to town by all the children . They were excited to see me , to touch my hands . They had been anticipating my RETURN. I’ve been here before . I can feel the energy welling inside me as I speak .


The children took me to certain big hut where the sick were . I seemingly on auto pilot began taking things from my pack and applying it to the sick and wounded . Plants , salves , teas etc . Before this experience I had never worked with plants like this during this physical life .


When done a strange kid came into the hut and took me by the hand . He was sickly looking , dire need of something . He lead me solemnly up a cliff , where a circle hut looking structure was . When I entered the tent . It was so hot , so humid I could taste it . I could taste the dirt in the air . There were men sitting in a circle inside this dark tent . And sipping from a bowl . Passing said bowl around . I also sipped from this bowl . And it began .


I found myself in the middle of an ancient think tank . The tribe had a problem . Water or the lack of it. Crops were failing , people were dehydrated , it was an issue . I remember clearly it was me , that had a solution . Irrigation from the main river . It was simple , I’ve seen it a thousand times in this life . But my idea , was well received with joy and excitement . I got up to leave this hut and a LARGE man blocked my path . I remember him , I know him . He had pale blue eyes that were prominent . Almost a glow . Long white beard as white as frost . He was not in the session of the bowl passing and think tanking . But here he was blocking my exit from leaving . He put his hand on my face . Grabbed it like a basketball. I say he was large because his fingers wrapped around the back of my head . This man was a giant no doubt but not mountains tall like the fables and tales .


He threw me from my face . Like a rag doll backwards . Two words spoken as I fell back into my body . ā€œSHAMAN BOYā€ loud and powerful . When my body hit the floor i literally bounced out of my bed at home , heart racing blood pumping . I had never heard of this title before . It wasn’t in my vocabulary . When I googled shaman , I relived my experience and was put on my path . A week later peyote found me . I had never once dabbled in this department nor ever had the urge to . When peyote found me I was consumed by her , obsessed . Under the influence , I met her . Not peyote herself , but her from within me . From within the silence she came , she guided me to a dark room. She told me not to blink till the rivers flow . When the rivers flow , let go . And let go I did . Those that know my latest mask have seen my tears . It’s a requirement to pass through for myself . The tear streaks to me are most sacred .


I had a belief instilled in me from this experience and one I’ll take beyond the graves . A secret for some reason. We are our ancestors . The timeline is not linear . I was summoned to this place and time . I was called . And we can look at how crazy that is when you currently have not a clue . Life will look like one thing here but be rooted in cause elsewhere . I had to be put in a position to be able to make that journey when I needed to . It took sacrafice , loss , abandonment , pain , betrayal , hurt and darkness to make me ready. This is a sad truth , my darkest of hours and I’ve had several . I felt alone and In a corner . I never knew both of us , her and myself had pre planned all this sadness and grief . And she sat in sadness as I passed through it , I had to pass though it like this . She has often been referred to as she who weeps . I relate to this . The goddess has wept for me. When my connection with her is clear and crisp and connected I know it’s her because I immediately am overcome with a sadness I can’t put into words propperly. It’s a weeping of depth . Like a mother who has to watch her children suffer brutally. Like a wife who has longed for her husband and he finally returns . Like a dog who lays near his partners grave . It’s too deep for me to comprehend . She is passion. She is caring . She is fierce . She is kind . She’s a teacher to those worthy. She is brutal to her enemies . She’s brutal to those she teaches in the fire .

When beginning a more complex operation, I'll often employ glyphs to help organize my thoughts and formerly initiate the spell to my conscious mind. This particular operation is for a project wherein a spirit has found itself trapped, partly due to circumstance and possibly due to foul play. The spirit requested my assistance and I've decided to respond by amplifying the local land energies, injecting some additional martian-like energy, and installing a sun around which everything can orbit. The current configuration of the area was somewhat messy, but had many of the ingredients present. They only need some reorganizing.


It's probably apparent that I'm using a planetary model for this approach. I'll be honest, the planetary system isn't my preferred mode of practice, but I'm enjoying the experimentation.

I love the use of symbols and glyphs to both work things out / break things down that I’m struggling to grasp.


They are also great for teaching too, and of course great to stop others from learning. Symbols are a useful tool that gets used a lot in closed traditions / practices and with the would be ā€˜gatekeeper’


Symbology is of course the language of the universe and once you get used to taking down your own notes in the form of symbols, it then becomes a lot easier to read the notebook of the universe.


Most of the coolest herbal and incense formulas come to me first in the form of a symbol that is a r

Puzzle which ends up getting solved eventually. I’ve noticed this is also true in physics although perhaps the other way around sometime šŸ˜…

Failing Up


This is the story of how failures can still be productive and a warning to those thinking they're too good to perform a reading before some magical operation.


I received a request to dispose of a man that was harassing the women at a friend's volunteer group. Having met this man in person, I had previously sensed the parasitic nature of his energy. His "aura" was extremely lopsided and appeared to pour out the front of his body. A bit unusual but not exceptional nor intellectually stimulating. I had also picked-up through direct conversation with him that he had taken it upon himself to "steward" the young women of the group, whether they wanted or needed such stewardship.


So, I accepted the request and thinking so little of him, I didn't even perform a reading before crafting the spell (something I always do). Do keep in mind that…

Update 2: he survived šŸ™„


I think the lesson here is minding ephemeral energy sources. I tied the spell intimately to the growing animosity around this man's behavior. Once he became withdrawn and eventually hospitalized, that well ran dry. The anger subsided. This also seems to be manifesting physically as a bit of stalling by community members to remove him, despite lip service to the contrary.


I'm not keen to help people that won't help themselves. I may leave a punitive spirit behind to amplify any future controversy.
