We do not exist for ourselves (as the center of the universe), and it is only when we are fully convinced of this fact that we begin to love ourselves properly and thus also love others. What do I mean by loving ourselves properly? I mean, first of all, desiring to live, accepting life as a very great gift and a great good, not because of what it gives us, but because of what it enables us to give others. ~ Thomas Merton
The belief that human beings have evolved from monkeys is a false and degenerative belief. Whether it be the strict Darwinism of Natural Science, or the Alien God Ideology of the New Age, animals have never been part of the natural human stream.
In Spiritual Science it is understood that the lower kingdoms of the earth emerged out of the human form, or the divine human template, in earlier non-physical epochs of the earth.
Thus, all beings from all kingdoms of life (elemental, mineral, plant and animal) exist within the human form. And, they emerged from the human template, not the other way around.
Rudolf Steiner, over a hundred years ago, warned us about the dangers of believing that we stemmed from animals.
“…if we consider Darwinism a basis for the only view of the world that is valid, if we believe that the only true view is that human beings descended from animals, and if we live with this thought within ourselves — I descended from the animals, I originate only from such forces that also create the animals — then this leads souls in the present to become similar to their own thought conceptions of themselves!
If people believe (here in the physical body) that only animal forces were active in their evolution, then they will fashion for themselves a consciousness for the time after death that will cause them to see themselves as animals. “
Here Steiner illustrates an important point: our idea about our origins as human beings affects our souls experience after death! Our understanding of creation can create a structure of support upon our passing, or one of confusion.
When we consider this, inverting and confusing our origin story is a means of control for lower forces as it makes our soul identify with dark and chaotic forces upon our death.
When we start doing something we’ve done for some time privately, publicly, it takes awhile to get the presentation down. It takes many tries before one finds a pattern which offers best results. Currently, I’m learning to be comfortable speaking publicly. It’s odd. Shifting from isolated tasks to sharing in the collective. I feel like a child, learning to walk. I make mistakes, say the wrong things, appear a fool. Gotta start somewhere! If I allow fear to stop me from advancing, I’ll never expand and develop smoothly into a fine example of flow. I’m not real concerned about a following. I’m more interested in developing personal skills. So I create content, some of it not really presentable, but I’m creating. Moving forward. Alone, haha. My YouTube has 2 followers. My blog has 1589 subscribers. I’m not looking for attention. I’m looking for self-improvement. If you happen upon any of my content and think it unprofessional, silly, or pointless … it’s all good. I’m not looking to impress others. I’m looking to impress self. And share … who knows, maybe you’ll think my bumbling, stumbling first steps are humorous, or maybe you have advice, or maybe you’re wanting to move forward too, but are wary of looking a fool. Damn. We all look a fool at times. Those who never look a fool are faking it.
Most witches identify as eclectic, which means that they practice at least a few different kinds of magic.
Green Witch – Green witches are also known as garden or forest witches, are very connected to the earth & draw their magic from the natural world. They incorporate earthly elements like herbs, plants, into their practice & enjoy study them. They also work with the Fae.
Hedge Witch – “Hedge” means boundary between this world & spirit realm; hedge witches are known for “flying” into spiritual world when they practice magic. They perform small, daily domestic actions that make life easier for both them & others. They often focus quite a bit on the hearth, home & tend to partner with animals.
Kitchen Witch – They mainly practice magic in the kitchen. They use herbs, cooking, potions, & other types of recipes to concoct spells. Their power stems from the actual process of cooking or baking and the emotions you put into it.
Faery Witch – Also known as a Fae witch connect with faeries at the most basic level. Faery witches love nature spirits, woodland creatures, trees, & the Fae. They invite all of these elements into their practice.
Divination Witch – They focus, on divination practices like Tarot, astrology, scrying, pendulum, meditation, etc. Many divination witches are eclectic as well, they enjoy incorporating divination practices into the craft.
Fire Witch – Draw power from fire. They love the element, or may have more success with fire spells such as candle spells, potions over an open flame, etc. As a fire witch, they are hot & fiery in nature. They like quick results which is exactly what fire spells bring them.
Sun Witch – They derive power from the sun. Spells that deal with new beginnings will be better to cast at sunrise, while banishing spells will have more power during sunset.
Lunar Witch – The moon represents emotions, water, & the subconscious, as well as powerful, deep magic. A moon witch, is very in-tune with lunar cycles & draws power from the moon.
Storm Witch – They draw energy from crazy weather. They might have a preference for a specific type of storm or enjoy chaotic weather energy in general, but they will definitely feel more powerful & excited when the weather is tumultuous.
Sea Witch – A sea witch has a strong connection to water and to the ocean. Sea witches connect with ocean spirits & have an almost psychic connection with the sea. They may use sand, shells, driftwood, or even sea water to perform magic.
Swamp Witch – The swamp witch uses the healing elements of nature around them (especially mud) & develops their own strong magic through the intense emotions they feel surrounding society and expectations.
Elemental Witch – The hallmark of an element witch is incorporating the 4 elements (earth, air, fire, and water) into their practice. Elemental witches use the elements when casting spells; they may only use 1 element at a time or all 4.
Crystal Witch – They are deeply connected to the vibration & energetic power of crystals, gems, & stones.
Ancestral Witch – To be a hereditary or ancestral witch, one needs to have ancestors who were witches. Hereditary witches harness power from the spirits of their ancestors to perform magic.
Cosmic Witch – A cosmic witch is all about the sky. They look to astrology, astronomy, & the stars & moon. They incorporate energy from the stars in their practice & may especially like to study past life astrology. Some cosmic witches are starseeds & integrate practices from their home planet into the craft. They might connect with deities associated with the stars or formulate spells based on planets, the alignment of the stars, etc.
Chaos Witch – They draw power from chaos. They perform emotional, tumultuous magic. Their spells are fueled by energy that clashes. Chaos witches often perform magic with intense music, during storms, or even when they’re feeling a bit drained emotionally.
Ceremonial Witch – These witches are focused on the ritual of the craft and draw power from performing a ceremony that is meaningful. A ceremonial witch is part of a coven & will treat their ceremonial magic more as a religion.
When you practice ceremonial magic (also known as traditional wicca), there isn’t always a clear distinction between “good spells” & “black magic” so your morals & knowledge will depend on the types of traditional ceremonies you follow.
Dianic Witch – They focus on the feminine. They usually worship the Roman goddess Diana, but can sometimes focus on all goddesses as the divine feminine is the most important aspect of Dianic witchcraft. Dianic witches practice a lot of meditation & visualization in addition to their magic. The focus of the practice is to heal inner wounds that these witches have received from the patriarchy.
Traditional Witch – They base their practice in very old magic, often known as the “Old Religion”. These witches do a lot of research & take a historical approach to their magical practice.
Other types – Secular, Urban/City Witch, Natural, Cottage Witch.
You’re either consciously playing, or your a programmable pawn.
You know you’re about to enter a new life cycle. New dwelling, perhaps in a new state, new car, new potentials in friendship, partnership and future.
Let us say you have vision in mind, circumstances as they are now, and the potentials for future, thru circumstance, choices and actions … how these choices may create situational potentials, some favorable, some that can destroy the dream.
If you start seeing life as a game of chess, you can say you’re no longer a pawn, but a conscious player, in the game of life.
Once you realize your choices create chain reactions leading to a culmination of events … there’s no going back, and you can be certain others will try and “force a game” on you.
Why do you think the wealthy train their children from youth?
Future leaders, who know the game … the game of strategy.
Q: Just curious, has anyone stopped to think maybe this ISN’T the Devil’s doing since he was caged up already. Maybe this is ALL still happening because HUMAN CONSCIOUSNESS is creating it? Just a thought.
A: Influenced by darker string pullers, sort of like MK ultra. It takes the consciousness of humans to create. If they hijack the consciousness, they can create “thru” us. This is what’s been happening. A hijacked collective consciousness has been creating a darker agenda FOR them.
A: Our chains and burdens, a lot of the time, are mental and designed to trap us.
