Empathy's Book of Shadows

 

Daily Meditation Ritual

Need: One or two black candles, a red candle, a white candle, an egg and music (optional).

Light up a black candle or two.

Say a passage that may help you rid of any anger or frustration you have.

Take an egg and hold it the way you see it come in egg containers.

Out loud say the words " Anger I throw you away"

And smash the egg down on the ground.

After doing that, light a red and white candle, and say Serenenity and Peace spell.

Meditate to music if you want, or without music.

Do this daily before you go to bed, so when you wake up you may feel refreshed and ready to take on another days worth of any pain if any. It's something to help make life easier, I find at least

 

Candle dressing

It is important to dress your candle before use. The most basic way to do so is to rub it with blessed or anointing oil. Start at the ends and rub toward centre for spells dealing with gain or increase. Start with the centre and rub out for both ends if the candle will be used in destructive/elimination spells. Do not rub up and down, rub only in the specific direction.

I cleanse and consecrate this candle in the name of the God and Goddess. May it burn in strength and in the service of light.

 

Saltwater blessing

Salt and water
Inner and outer
Soul and body
Be cleansed
Cast out all that is harmful
Take in all that is good and healing
By the powers of life death and rebirth
So mote it be!
 

Consecrating tools

Before using tools, they should be properly consecrated. First thoroughly wash each tool and then perform a consecration ritual. Here are some samples.

Consecrate and cleanse this (thing)
That it may be purified and fit to dwell within the sacred circle
In the name of the Goddess and the God,
I consecrate this (thing)
 

I bless this (thing)
That it may be purified and fit to dwell within the sacred circle
In the name of the Goddess and the God
I bless this (thing)
 

Formal ceremony

Rub Salt on the Tool then:

"I consecrate thee with Earth...
May this {tool} be endowed with all the Virtues of Earth, a
And the blessings of the elements of Earth be multiplied with its every use."

Then pass the tool through burning incense, (see herbs for blessings) visualize the air as you speak:

"I consecrate thee with Air..
May this {tool} be endowed with all the Virtues of Air, an
d the blessings of the elements of Air be multiplied with its every use."

Now pass the tool through flame, dedicating it to fire:

I consecrate thee with Fire...
May this {tool} be endowed with all the Virtues of Fire,
and the blessings of the elements of Fire be multiplied with its every use."

Sprinkle water over the tool:

I consecrate thee with Water...
May this {tool} be endowed with all the Virtues of Water,
and the blessings of the elements of Water be multiplied with its every use."

Hold the "tool" aloft in offering to Goddess

"Lady and Lord hear me,
I offer this [tool] for Your blessing.
May it ever serve me in earnest, and thee in Honour... So more it Be!"

Place whatever you're going to consecrate on the pentacle, and touching it with our projective (right) hand, and using the name and material of the tool, say (for instance, if it's a sword):

I consecrate you, sword of steel,
to cleanse you and purify you,
to serve me into the circle.
In the name of the Mother Goddess and Father God you're consecrated.

I charge you by the Old Ones: By the omnipotent Goddess and God:
By the Virtues of the Sun, Moon and Stars:
By the power of the Earth, Air, Fire and Water,
that I shall obtain all that I desire through you.
Charge this by your power, Old Ones.

Home Cleansing

Before starting, remove all jewellery, take a bath or shower and put on clean comfortable clothing.

Stand in the centre of your home and centre yourself.

Once centered, light a sage smudge stick and send the smoke to each corner of your home.

Once this is done, go to each corner (starting near the floor moving up) and clap swiftly and loudly imagining the negative energy that has built up disperses and leaves your home. Continue to do this in each corner. You will know it is working when your clapping is clear and crisp to the ear.

When you are finished, wash your hands.

 

Stones And Gems: Spells, Correspondence, healing properties, etc..

 

To Charge or Consecrate A Scyring Mirror Or Stone

Make an infusion of the herb mugwort, while it's still warm, strain it and then
bathe the mirror or stone in the infusion, while softly whispering this chant 9 times.
As you do so, invision the mirror or stone awakening to you and your own psychic abilities:
Lovely oracle of magic worth,
fair creature of psychic light,
the truest answers, you shall bring forth,
you shall be my eyes, my sight.

Boost Productivity

To improve your own work productivity, during the waxing Moon place one hematite in
a small basket or tray and enchant it by saying:
"Ground and heal, magnetic one; bring me clarity on this day."
Add a quartz crystal to the contained and say:
"Bring boundless energy to me; may it last through this day."
Add a calcite and say:
"Stone of joy and yellow light, help me sort through my work today."
Place the container of stones on your desk and say:
"Help me work through this day; bring me inspiration.
And when the day is done, may the labour be finished."

Sex Stone Magick

You need to find two stones, one representing the female (either a shape with a hole in
it or a triangular shape works also), and one representing the male (I think that shape is
pretty self-explanatory). Hold these two stones together in your hand so that they are touching
while chanting the following:

Stones of power, stones of might,
Love each other day and night.
Guard each other in the rain,
Until the sun will shine again.
Stones of power, stones of might,
Bring me love if it be right.

Repeat the chant as many times as you like and when you are done place the two
stones inside a box to be put away where it will not be disturbed. It is important to
make sure that the stones are still touching when they are inside the box.

Healing Water Holed Stones

Take a holed stone (naturally holed stones often found in or beside running water or the ocean)
and put it in a vessel of clear water. Remove it and the water is possessed of healing vibrations
which can be used in healing baths, to anoint a healing charm, and so on. Perform this
on the New, waxing, or full moon with the focus on healing and getting better. Place the
bowl of water with stone out under the moon to collect Her energies and blessings.
Say something along to lines of:

Lady Luna, Bless this water with your healing energies.
Then leave it outside under the light of the moon for nine minutes, nine being a healing number.
You might also sit before the water and meditate over it, collecting and projecting healing energies into it.
Then bring it indoors, store it in a glass container such as a mason jar and use.
You could also drop a bit of blue food colouring into it and keep it in a vial to carry as a talisman.
Use some of it in bathing waters along with a healing herb or oil.
You could also anoint your forehead with it or afflicted are and then go deep into a
meditative state concentrating on healing the disease/illness/problem.

Hematite Healing Spell

Hold a Hematite stone, feel it's vibrations and channel healing energy into the stone. Chant:
Stone of Hematite
Stone so black
Give me the healing energy
That I lack
Stone of Hematite
Stone of Hematite
Heal me now
With the speed of light!

Clear Away The Old

There are many aspects of our lives which we would like to improve, but we just can't
muster up the willpower. In your time of need, a crystal can come to your aid.
You can program a crystal to help you lose weight stop smoking or overcome any negative
attitudes about yourself. For example, you want to stop eating chocolate but just can't.
You know you should stop for health reasons but you don't have the will power.
Try programming a crystal by telling it something like,
"I have completely lost any desire for chocolate."
Wear the crystal around your neck or keep it in a pocket.
Whenever you want chocolate, touch your crystal and feel the urge dissipate.
To get the most out of your crystal, you need to get the right crystal in the first place.
Pick a crystal by attraction, by being drawn to touch it, and then hold it loosely in your left hand.
Notice the impressions, colours, sounds, and feelings you pick up. No two crystals are the same.
Each crystal has its own unique vibration, and each will resonate differently. It should feel alive in
your hand, vibrate, or radiate. In other words, it should feel good.
Before you use your crystals cleanse it. The easiest way to clean your crystal is to hold it in
the bright sunlight and order it to be completely cleansed. when, program it with your desired goal.
Now, you're ready to enjoy your crystal!

Stone Of Luck

You can use the Stone of Luck spell for anything, love, money, health, wealth, spirit awareness, etc.
The key to this empowerment is concentration and belief.

Hold the rock in your power hand. Concentrate on what you want.
Run the rock through the flame 3 times. Then put it into the water.
Cup your hands over the bowl. Then take the rock out of the water and sprinkle the herbs on it.
After you have done that, put the rock into a dry bowl. Visualize yourself getting what you want.
Then anoint the rock with the oil and put the rock back into the dry bowl.

Stones & Metals For Luck

ORANGE stones have some of the fire of red but are gentler in their effects.
Projective, they have often been seen as symbols of the Sun and are thought
to be luck attracting.

L-SHAPED stones are thought to bring good fortune, perhaps because this form
suggest the conjunction of the spiritual with the physical.
They can be carried as good luck pieces or placed on the altar.

APACHE TEAR, a globule of translucent obsidian, is carried as a good-luck charm.

AVENTURINE is an all-around luck stone.

COPPER is a lucky metal, perhaps because of its past solar attributions, and so can
be used in combination with any luck-bringing gemstones.

LODESTONE is carried in pairs -- one to protect and the other to bring good luck.
TIN is carried as a good-luck piece and can be shaped into talismans to attract money.

Simple Stone Spells

Just as semiprecious and precious stones have been used for a wide variety of magical purposes,
so too have plain, ordinary stones. Nothing in nature is without its magical uses.
This feature contains minor rituals utilizing any kind of stone you find in your backyard, on the
beach or anywhere out in nature. In these spells, use your powers of visualization and
concentration to direct the energy through the stones. Here, the rocks are usually focal
points or tools that add little power of their own. Some of them are amulets and talismans of a kind.
That's not to say that a piece of granite made up of quartz, hornblende and various other
minerals doesn't contain its own powers, but such stones lack focused energy. Since this
is the kind most needed in magic, it is more difficult to work with them than with amethyst
and carnelian. Therefore, in the simple spells that follow, don't worry about which stone to use.
Take whatever is at hand.

Protection, The Five Pebbles

Go to a moving brook or stream. While standing in the water and facing downstream, remove
five small pebbles from the stream bed As you do this, visualize your need for protection.
As your hand closes over the pebbles, see them beaming out protective energies. Just as the
pebbles are hard and have weathered for eons, so too will they strengthen your protective shield.
Now carry them at all times for protection. If you wish, place them in a small pouch or a fold of cloth,
or incorporate them into some form of jewellery.

Divination, Black and White:

Spend a few minutes gathering stones. Half should be dark and half of a lighter colour.
Place them on the ground before you. Ask your question or keep it in mind.
Close your eyes and jumble the stones around for a few seconds; then, with your left or
receptive hand, remove one of the stones. If you picked a dark stone, the answer is yes
or the prospects favourable. If light, no.

Love, Stone Love Spell:

Go to a place that contains many water-worn stones.
Look for a large, flat rock while visualizing yourself being involved with the perfect mate.
On this rock mark with red ink two intertwined hearts.
As you do this, keep the visualization in mind.
When you are finished, bury the stone in the earth in an uncultivated place.

Stone Attraction Spell

Take any stone. Hold it in your projective hand for several minutes while
visualizing your need.
Flood the stone with your need and with your emotional involvement with your need.
Send power out from your body to the stone. Use your visualization to see it streaming into the rock.
Then throw the stone into running water. It is done.

Stone Banishing Spell

To be rid of diseases, unhealthy habits, hurt feelings and any other disturbing manifestations
of life, hold any stone in your projective hand and visualize the problem in detail.
Visualize the part of you that is to be banished as entering the stone. See the problem and its
causes leaving you and infusing the stone.
When you can send no more energy into it, throw the stone onto a hot fire, throwing with it the
causes and manifestations of your problem. Stand back the stone may explode.
If you have no fire or don't wish to have rocks exploding, throw the stone into the air or into water,
thereby releasing the problem causing energy from your body. It is done.



Black Opal Charm

The black opal is widely known as the "Witches Stone" and is prized for its magick
enhancing properties. To increase your magickal power, charge the stone with the
following chant and place it on your altar.
"Opal black, of burning fire
Add the power that's required
To make my magick hit its mark,
By light of day, or night so dark."

Metaphysical Properties of Quartz Crystals

How Crystals Grow

Generally, quartz crystals grow in a hexagonal (six sided) structure, with additional faces
sloping towards a point at one end. A crystal with these characteristics is itself also called
a POINT. Points may be totally clear and transparent, or they may contain streaks, lines,
rainbows, water bubbles or other inclusions. They may also appear cloudy if they have
grown in a place where it freezes in the winter. Optical clarity usually has little to do with
a crystal's quality and its ability to amplify the subtle energies.

What They Do

Quartz crystals are a gift from the earth. They have the ability to amplify or strengthen the
things in you that are positive, and can help you put away things that cause you fear or anger.
They can strengthen your ability to be a loving person, and can enhance your abilities to
enjoy life and accomplish the things you want in life. They can amplify INTENTION, reduce
stress, help with CENTRING (balancing or calming), strengthen HEALING abilities, and
surround you with PROTECTION by amplifying white light. Any healthy quartz crystal point
can strengthen these things and help produce personal growth by amplifying the subtle
energies that flow inside you.

Selecting A Crystal

To select a crystal, first put yourself in a calm space. Hold the crystal in your right hand
with the point towards you. Feel it physically. Be open to sensations like TINGLING, or
change in temperature. Also feel the crystal emotionally. Think of the purpose you want it
for, and see if you feel attracted to it. Be more concerned with how it feels than how it looks.
Allow the crystal to pick you by interacting with it in this way. And remember to go with your
initial feeling. If you need a specialized type of crystal to work with, consider one of the types
described below.

Crystals With Special Properties

In addition to the general characteristics mentioned above, quartz crystals sometimes have
other special attributes that enhance their power. To identify these special types of crystals,
pay particular attention to the largest of the faces that slope toward the point. Does it have
pyramids (triangles) on it? Count the number of edges surrounding the face. This number can
be anywhere from 3 to 8, and is one of the things that determines the special characteristics
of the crystal. In addition to strengthening the Inner Being as all crystals do, the crystals listed
below are true teachers and provide additional special help. Most of them are relatively rare,
and they should be highly treasured when one of them finds you.

Cerridwen Crystals

Have five edges surrounding the largest sloping face. These crystals strongly amplify the
feminine energy, and can help you get in touch with the 'female' or unselfish side of yourself,
no matter whether you are a man or a woman. These crystals are useful in balancing your
male-female energy if the female energy has been suppressed, or if you need a greater
balance of female energy for any reason. Cerridwen crystals put you in touch with the
power of the Goddess.

For men, the Cerridwen crystal will help you become more in tune with your feminine side
and to become more aware of the aspects of women that you may find troubling.
For women, the Cerridwen crystal will help you regain some of the power and energy
that society has taken from you. Teaches that feminine is not weak. Anyone doing healing
work with another person needs the Cerridwen energy to be effective. The Cerridwen
crystal should be carried or held when dealing with issues that are emotional and difficult.
To nurture yourself, sit with the Cerridwen crystal in your hand with the point directed toward you.
Visualize white light going from the point of the crystal and surrounding you.
After doing this you should feel strong and cared for.

Channelling Crystals

 

Have seven edges surrounding the largest sloping face. These crystals are especially useful
for obtaining information from deep within yourself or from sources that are outside of your
normal realm. They can help you draw on the knowledge and information that is provided
by the universe, and can aid you in getting help from a higher source. A channelling crystal
can be used anytime you are seeking answers or help from outside of yourself. You must
`listen' very carefully when using this crystal and realize that answers can come from many
sources. Meditation is used with these crystals to get knowledge from the universe, and to
communicate with your spirit guide.

It can only be used by the person holding the crystal.
communication with Guide: A channelling crystal is a line of communication with sources
outside yourself. Generally, the main source is your guide. A guide is a non-physical entity
whose primary job is to look after you. Every human being has a guide. Guides are sometimes
called other things, such as conscience, or angels, but they are always with us. We must
learn to listen to what they have to say. Your guide will never tell you what to do, or interfere
in other ways with what you want to do, but your guide is there to help you find answers for
yourself. And you can use your channelling crystal to let your guide be your conscience.
A channelling crystal can only be used by the person holding it. In other words, you can't
send the energy to someone else in order to let him receive the information directly.

However, since guides communicate readily with each other, you can become good at
getting information to people by asking your guide to give you the needed information for
someone else, and then relaying it to the person. This is how you channel information for others.
Channelling crystals amplify the quiet inner voice of your guide, and can be a big help in
learning how to channel information, both for yourself and for others.

Grounding Crystals

Have eight edges surrounding the largest sloping face. They are quite rare and not always
easily available. Grounding is the ability to deal with practical matters in a realistic way.
For example, in dealing with the question `How am I going to make a living', a grounded
person will consider his skills and decide how best to use those skills to make a living.
An ungrounded or `spacey' person does not like to deal with the practical or realistic aspects of life.
Grounding crystals help you deal with practical matters in a realistic way. They connect you
with the earth and keep your energies from being scattered. They help you think clearly and
express yourself clearly. When used in meditation they help you form a strong connection with
higher knowledge, but keep you grounded so that you can apply that information in practical terms.
When using a grounding crystal to work through a personal problem, remember that it will require
you to look at the truth of the situation and compel you to deal with that truth.

It is sometimes difficult to recognize times when you need this crystal because not being grounded
can be a way of life for some people. These days, it is common to be a little spacey because of
things going on in our world. When you are having trouble concentrating, feeling a reluctance to
tackle a task that needs doing, or find yourself running in circles but accomplishing nothing, you
need a grounding crystal.

You can sometimes help another person become more grounded by sitting quietly, holding your
grounding crystal, and visualizing that person being firmly rooted to the earth.

Window Crystals

Have a small diamond shaped face which takes the place of one of the corners where two
of the parallel faces usually meet the corresponding two sloping faces. Window crystals are
introspection crystals in that they help you see what is inside yourself. They help bring things
to the surface so you can see them and effectively deal with them. If you are having problems
and aren't sure why, a window crystal can be a good help.

Window crystals are used for working within yourself to deal with problems and changes that
must be made in your life. They are used in meditation to help you solve problems that are
troubling your Inner Being. For example, if you find you are very jealous of a friend, you can
use a window crystal to work within yourself to find the reason and deal with it.
Think of a window crystal as a window into your soul. These are very personal crystals, and
when one comes into your hands, it is intended to help you specifically.
This crystal can be used when trying to help someone else solve problems. If a friend comes
to you to talk about a problem have him hold the window crystal while you talk.
It can help him open up.

Record Keepers

Have a pyramid shaped indention or elevation that appears to be etched
on one of the sloping faces. These are fairly rare, and often the pyramid will not be noticed until
the crystal comes into the hands of the person it was meant to work with. Sometimes the pyramid
can disappear and sometimes more pyramids show up. Each of these crystals has its own special
lesson to teach, usually the lesson the person most needs to learn.

Record keepers differ from window crystals in that window crystals help you look inside yourself
to let you see the various things you need to learn, while record keepers deal with a specific
lesson that you need to learn. A record keeper will often pass from your hands very quickly
once the lesson is learned.

Carry your record keeper or put it close to your bed so that it can work with you. It can also be
used for meditation.

Some crystals have several special characteristics, i.e. a Cerridwen with a Record. In this case
there is a specific lesson to learn that deals with the feminine side of your energy. If you have an
Cerridwen with a window it means that you need to look inside to find the areas in your feminine
side that are causing you problems.

Twin Crystals

Have two terminations (points) at the same end, which have developed from a single base.
You can tell a twin crystal from two crystals that are simply attached to each other, by the
fact that both parts of a twin crystal are exactly parallel to each other, and have no boundary
between them in at least a small region of the crystal. These are wonderful crystals to use
when dealing with `relationship' things. They can help you gain insight into the underlying
problems in a relationship, and help work through them. They can generate very positive energy
towards improving a relationship. This works for any kind of relationship, not only a man-woman
relationship. A twin with a rainbow can be very effectively used to project healing energy into
a relationship or to keep a good relationship strong.
When you are having a problem with a relationship sit quietly with the twin and ask for help.
Remember, that answers come from many directions.
Twins are personal crystals as one of the twins is very closely tuned to your energy, so it is
not possible to use this crystal to work for others in relationship matters.

Double Terminated Crystals

Are crystals that have points on both ends, allowing energy to flow readily in both directions.
Double terminated crystals strengthen energy flow, and are especially useful when you need
to share or exchange energy between you and another person. They are useful when you
are working to help other people, for example in massage or counselling, where energy needs
to flow in both directions. In these situations, energy flows toward you when you tune in to a
person to find out what that person needs, and energy flows from you when you give the
person the needed healing energy. Double terminated crystals are very important to people
doing healing work for themselves or others. They also help teach sharing through energy exchange.
If working with someone else, visualize energy flowing into you through the top of your head,
down your arm, through the crystal, and into the other person. This can be done while you are
with the person or it can work from a distance.
If you have children, try using this crystal to send positive energy to the child when the
child is upset or angry. It can have a very calming effect on both of you.

Generator Crystals

Are equal sided crystals so that all six sides come to a symmetrical point. For channelling and
directing energy of chakras. A Chakra is one of the seven energy centres of the human body.

Rainbow Crystals

Have a rainbow reflected from within the crystal. Usually they are best viewed in sunlight.
These crystals are especially good as meditation crystals for working deep within the subconscious.
They work particularly well to lighten the mood for people experiencing sadness, grief or depression.
Just holding a rainbow crystal can lighten your mood. Rainbow crystals are also very good at
drawing negativity from a room or a situation. Always cleanse a crystal that has been used to
clear negativity by letting it sit in the sunshine for a while.

Trigger Crystals

Have a smaller crystal growing out from them. This `trigger' can be gently squeezed to
activate the power of the crystal and strengthen its attributes. These are just used for
a surge of a particular kind of energy.

Self Healed Crystals

A self-healed crystal is one that has been broken
off and damaged quite badly, but then begins to grow again. A phantom is a crystal that has
had some impurity drop on it during growth, but then continues to grow right around the impurity.
Either of these types of crystal can help you heal from being hurt, heal from emotional injuries.
These are important crystals that will usually come into your life at a time when you are carrying
a lot of pain. Just sitting with this crystal will help you deal with the pain effectively.

CLUSTERS: These represent community and are very powerful at clearing any negative energy
from a room. Just set one out somewhere and allow it to work to clear the environment.

AMETHYST/SMOKY CLUSTERS: These particular clusters are mined in a very small area of
the Colorado Rockies. They are powerful in keeping the spirit centered because they carry a
special kind of energy that keeps all the energy centres within the body aligned, balanced,
and in harmony with each other.

BRAZILIAN CRYSTALS: Crystals from Brazil have the special quality of enhancing your ability
to project energy over a distance. For example, in some of the above exercises, where you are
sending healing energy to someone that is too far away for you to touch physically, hold a
Brazilian crystal along with the other crystal to strengthen the transmission.

TIBETAN CRYSTALS: These extremely rare crystals are hand mined high in the mountains of
Tibet, and are carried down the mountainside by backpack. Tibetan crystals are for protection.
Just having a Tibetan crystal close to you puts up an automatic shield against negative energy.
It also helps shield you from other people's negative energy. This shield is even stronger if you
do a centering exercise while holding the crystal.

CRYSTAL BALL - The sphere is an expression of infinite symmetry. The reflected image of a
person's aura lets the trained interpreter see and know much about a person.
