Love magick?….
Valentine’s Day’s coming…
The other day, I was talking to a friend of mine who works in a New Age store. She told me that on that day, she’d seen the latest in an ongoing stream of people who come into the store looking for someone to cast a love spell ( intended to make someone in particular fall in love with them…)
As usual, she’d had to tell her visitor that spells like that did exist, but that they were unethical, and that no one in the shop would cast one….
So what’s up with that?
Well, magick connected with love (and, for that matter, lust…) is trcicky. There’s some love magick that’s ethical. There’s some that’s seriously wrong.
And here’s how you tell the difference…
The key point determining whether love magick is ethical or not is the question of respect for the Free Will of others.
If you’ve been reading this blog for awhile, you may realize that Free Will is very important to me ( Need an update? Chose to jump to “Free Will Rocks” and “Free Will Still Rocks! Magick and Free Will” in May of 2009 …or not…).
In magick in general, it’s questionable to cast spells/do energy work/do workings that interfere with another person’s Free Will/ability to chose their own path.
Even if you think the results would be good for them…
Even if what you’re working towards is someting you deserve…
It’s not right to interfere with the Free Will of others.
( The one exception is to limit the ability of someone to harm others-and this choice needs to be made conservatively, to apply the minimum limitation to Free Will..)
Free Will is particularly important in magick concerning love. Since energetically, what you put out is what you get back, if you use magick to compell a specific someone to sleep with you or fall in love with you, you’re setting up a relationship that’s a ticking time bomb and building up a mass of bad karma that will tend to boomerang back at you.
So what’s ethical magick in love?
Let’s try some examples:
- Cast a spell to call your perfect partner to you-good;
- Cast a spell to make Joe at work fall in love with you-bad;
- Do a working to make yourself attractive toothers-good;
- Do a working to drive Suzy mad with desire-bad:
Get the idea? The ethical options help a positive outcome along, but don’t enforce your will on others. The unethical magick involves controlling others and taking away their right to chose…
So, Valentine’s Day is on the way. And Love is all around…
Just be sure that you’re making good vibrations.
See you soon

We’ve been talking about Life Missions and how they make your life better.
But how do you find your Life Mission?
There’s not one clear-cut, absolute way to do this….but there are a number of methods that point you in the right direction. That’s what the next few Life Mission posts will be about.
First, and most simple, as well as most difficult ( now there’s a paradox!)….
Start by sitting yourself down in a quiet place with a pen and paper, and making a list of your favorite things to do. The things that wake your spirit up. The things that give you that “idiot grin” that I’m so fond of. The things that you dream of doing. The things your spirit hungers for. The things you always feel better after you do them.
You know. The things that make life juicy for you.
These may be things that you knock yourself out to make time for. They may be the things that it kills you that you can’t find time for. They may be things you dream of doing some day when you’ve got enough money/time/courage/ energy/etc. ; or they may be dreams you’ve put aside.
They’re not always easy. Making dreams come true can be hard work. They’re not always happy-there can be bumps along the road to Utopia. But they’re the things that call to you.
Go ahead- I’ll wait…..
…….
……..
Got your list?
Good….
Now, look at your list and start searching for the common themes in your activities. Are they all about creating things? Nurturing people? Learning things or sharing knowledge?
There’s a lot of possible connections, but those underlying themes are going to point you in the direction of your Life Mission.
So, start detecting…
There’s more ideas on the way!

In previous posts,( most recently 1/26/10) , we’ve talked about people having Life Missions. We’ve talked about how having a mission helps you to put your resources into doing things that support being most perfectly you,as well as making this a better corner of the cosmos.
I don’t remember if I’ve mentioned this, but doing things in keeping with your Life Mission is usually a blast. It’s often hard work, but it feels great and is usually a lot of fun.
So, if you’re looking for your Life Mission, what kind of missions are out there?
You could be here to:
- stand up for the rights of people who cannot stand up for their own…
- support Nature through planting and nurturing flowers and trees…
- Explore the joy of learning new things…
- re-awaken people to joy through making really silly jokes…
There’s a lot of missions available.
Some of them sound impressive, and some of them sound small but are really more impressive than they sound (ex: bad jokes in a weary world can sometimes be the catalyst for people to wake up from a zombie-grey life..).
Many of them concern the world around you, but some are solo missions about your own experience.
The main thing is that, when you find your mission, you’ll know it. I find that there’s a ” YES! That’s it! That’s what I’m here to do!” feeling to it.
So, how do you find your life mission?
More on the way…

As I’ve said a number of times previously, both here and in classes and readings, I believe that each and every one of us has a calling; something special and unique that we bring to the party of Life that no one can bring for us.
A Life Mission…
Your Life Mission may or may not have anything to do with how you earn your living ( although, if it does, it’s wonderful). It does have everything to do with having a life that’s wonderful and juicy and exciting, as opposed to one grey day following another…
How’s that work? Once you find your Life Mission, you use it as a star to steer by. Your Life Mission gives you focus in things like what to give your time, energy, love and effort to, so you’re doing things that make you more perfectly you, as opposed to living your neighbor’s dream (or the dream that advertisers are pushing…).
Now your neighbor’s dream or the dreams that are sold in the media may be perfectly fine, but if they don’t feed your own spirit and your own dreams, the satisfaction you get from keeping up with the Joneses or the latest techno-toy is always temporary, leaving you feeling vaguely dissatisfied ( does ” is that all there is?” strike a bell?).
How’s your Life Mission make a difference here?
Well, it’s based around finding your own special gifts, talents, hungers and dreams- about what’s beautiful and juicy for you.
And activities and items based on your Life Mission will feed your spirit, strengthen your ability to do the things you’re here to do.
The things that make your heart sing…..
Interested?
There’s more on finding your Life Mission coming up…

In medieval times, the word for psychic was “soothsayer”. The reader was a sayer of sooth/ teller of truths hidden and overlooked.
And this coming Saturday, on 1/30/10, the psychics of Foresight will be saying sooth at the Market Day at Birka, a medieval re-enactment event hosted in Manchester, New Hampshire by the barony of the Stonemarche of the Society for Creative Anachronisms.
Here at the marketplace you’ll see traditional combat, a host of people from throughout the ancient world, and shopping, shopping, shopping…
And us, of course. Starwolf and I will be offering palm, tarot, I Ching, intuitive and pendulum readings, as well as good advice, friendly conversation, and truly awful puns…
This event is a medieval re-enactment, as opposed to a renaissance faire.Participants are required to dress in medieval style garb and comply with the organization’s standards of re-enacted medieval behavior…
And it can be a whole lot of fun….
If you attend the Market Day at Birka, we invite you to come by and say hello…
And, if it meets your needs, sign up for a reading.
We’ll be there for you.
See you soon.
