So you want to be a witch - pt2

Part two Meditations

I started you off with the January issue to meditate.
This Febuary issue I am going to go into why meditate and give pointers to different meditations you can try.

So why meditate? What is it to do with witch craft?

In our everyday lives we are always rushing and running about doing what we need throughout the day from work to children cooking ECT. Meditation is a way to slow us down not only on a psychic level but a human one, and we all need that in our life now and then. We meditate to clear space within our emotions but our energy field needs this to relax our minds and recharge our body, it helps us work on a better level. So to meditate on a spiritual level will enhance our spiritual level and enhance our psychic mind. There are many different meditations out there, and for different uses, I will go over a few with you so you understand a little more.

On any spiritual level we need to gain information from another source, I.e. our spiritual guides helpers or even a loved one, but before we can do this we need we need to get into an Alfa state! Meaning a blank screen/mind if you like, the Alfa state is where no influences on a human ego negative or positive side can come in and interfer with any emotions within the mind, all the Alfa state does is give this blank screen as in nowhere land.

Each meditation you use has a different affect on you, but they should all take you to the same level meaning. Relaxed calm happy ECT.there is also meditations you can use for healing and healing the self but I will go into this another time. As doing to many meditations can bore anyone including me.

Using water meditations brings in cleansing using grass or trees brings in earthy feelings, using caves brings in fear and anxious feelings, like I said before different ones do a different job.

Meditation is like everything else you have to learn it, like learning to drive a car not everyone can just connect, well very few. You do not have to see within your meditation but feel as if your there if you get me, do not rush into it, but relax with it this will give you a better affect, the right way to meditate is to just let it happen and not put thoughts in your head. Just do anything you feel like doing as to what you use, music,incense,crystals ECT because on a spiritual level there is no limit and you tend to grow more if you are open minded. You might think this boring but you have to keep at it as you will understand that later on your connection to spirit guides ECT and the different psychic gifts you receive, you only find these out while meditating.

So meditation is the gateway to those different realms, meaning past life, connections to elementals, fairy's, angels, spirit guides astral travel and so on.

THE DARKNESS MEDITATION

Now for this meditation you must have complete darkness not any candle or window light coming through! And most of all you must trust your inner self, this meditation might be tricky at first but you will get the hang of it.

Now prepare your room and self before doing this meditation, start the breathing or chakra breathing nice and slow, keep your eyes open and just look into the darkness do not think or anything, for a few moments, then you can close your eyes when you are ready and just imagine yourself going through the darkness, possibly like a fog or a tunnel it is up to you but just relax and take everything in around you, from what you sense - hear - possibly see, the. When your body and mind has turned on or just relax imagine a white light then put a candle on to adjust your senses and eyes, then leave it.

This meditation can also help you just before sleep you imagine the darkness as you lay in bed it will relax your mind and body quickly if it is tuned into you through meditation and will help a good nights sleep.

Before doing any of my rituals/spells I tend to have a little way of doing things, I bath to cleanse and relax my body, I then collect the things I need for my altar space, I clean my area and then put music candles and smells on, after this I take myself into an altered state to take myself into my witchy spiritual side, and forget everyday life, then I continue with what I'm doing within my ritual doing my circle ECT. It's like a little routine, but I do like to change things around so I keep things exciting for myself.

Of course there are many meditations out there and this article would be pages long if I continued so I have only given you one here and one last month, because I hope that I have given you food for thought to look up a few meditations or make one of your own.

Please do keep in touch and E-Mail myself or silent voices and leave us your feed back if it's helped.
