Wicca Daily Devotions

admin — Tue, 31 Aug 2010 18:52:31 +0000

Daily devotions are done to strengthen the ability to control your inner Magick energy.
Think of daily devotionals as short rituals of energy. They strengthen your connection, and also bring positive energies into your life. If you ignore your connection to Magick energy, it will weaken – as will your power. This is especially important for beginner wiccans, charged energies sent out into the universe will get whatever you desire.

Your devotionals can be anything that brings positive emotion into your heart. It can be something as simple as making diary entries into your Book of Shadows every night before bed. In your Book of Shadows, keep track of where negative patterns are in your life, and work to build on the positive ones in your mind and in the Book of Shadows. Another devotional mini ritual you can follow is to spend at least a few minutes breathing, meditating, and visualizing positive things to create positive energy in your life.You can do all of your devotionals at one time, or you can spread them out through the day. Find something that works within your schedule, and follow it.

Here are a list of some devotionals that you can do every day. There is not a need to do all of them, but pick ones that you feel most comfortable with:

Morning wake-up devotional
Connecting to the Lord and Lady
Connecting to the Divine, Infinite Energy
Greeting Devotionals to the Spirits or Elements around you
Connecting to Nature and the Earth Mother
Journaling
Food Blessing Devotional
Breathing
Meditation
Visualization Exercises
Playing with Energy

Remember, none of the devotionals you do should tire you out. And you should never be in a situation where you dread doing them. You should look forward to them so make sure you select ones that work best for you. Most of the devotionals above are self-explanatory, and you can create these devotionals any way that you wish. There are no hard and fast rules when doing your daily devotionals.

I know nothing about Norse mythology, but if anyone could tell me more about Fenrir(or Fenris, how you say it?) and the mother and father of him, that’d be great. Thanks.

Do wicca spells actually work for witches?

admin — Sat, 13 Mar 2010 18:18:01 +0000

I’ve heard about wicca and some of friends told me about it but I never believed it. So do you have any so called “proof” or is just some psychic stuff people believe in? How about “psychic vampires” does it work too?No offense I find it quite amusing but do you have any first-hand knowledge?

Polytheism?

admin — Sun, 28 Feb 2010 16:54:23 +0000

Please comment on the significance of the fact that within 325 years of dieing on the cross, Jesus’ gospel message became the defining religion of the mighty Roman Empire that had spent so much time trying to crush it and shortly after destroyed the many polytheistic practices of the known civilized world at that time and continues to impact our world today.

Basically, Jesus defeats polytheism. This is not a religious question. It is a historical fact. If not what other factor contributed to the many gods of the Greeks, Romans, Eqyptians, Babylonians, Persians, Norse Germanic Tribes and many others becoming Myth?
