CONDITION: You had to leave a bad situation and now you have you have no apartment, job and a baby. Suffering a great hardship and you need to overcome because the father may not be stepping up to the plate.
REMEDY: By Catherine Yronwode. In these spells of magic set up some prayer lights and join a local church.
Find a job. Use Gravel Root or Salt and Gravel Root mixed together. Write the name of where you want to work. You can also get the business cards of where you want to work and dress the cards with Steady Work Powder and put it in your shoe and walk on their Business Card or that paper with the name of the business where you want to work. Have a light set at home while looking for a job.
Now use witchcraft magic to find a home. If you know the area that you want to find a home, get a map and draw a circle on the map and put that on your altar. Or print out some areas on Google Earth and put them on an altar like an altar cloth. Then put on the map a white candle in the center. Say, 'Let this be a light unto me to guide me to my new home where ever it is on this map.' Dress the candle with House Blessing Oil. Every day pray by a lit candle, 'Please draw me to my new home.' Make a promise to yourself that you will speak to at least 3 people about your need for a home. Keep saying throughout the day, 'My home is coming to me.'

I really wanted to talk about this today. I guess I'll give you another chance to peruse it for yourselves. Meanwhile, as I have been on a roller coaster rider with my mother, who is one day better and the next day worse and the next day better again and still in the hospital (but maybe getting out today), we'll just hit a few soft balls.
ANOTHER QUESTION FROM A PROTESTANT. TOMORROW IS ASH-WEDNESDAY, IN OUR PROTESTANT TRADITION THE RECEIVING OF THE ASH CROSS ON THE FOREHEAD IS NOT A CUSTOM. BUT I WOULD VERY MUCH LIKE TO RECEIVE IT AS A SIGN OF ENTERING LENT, A TIME OF CONCENTRATION ON GOD. WOULD IT BE ALLRIGHT FOR ME TO RECEIVE THE ASHCROSS IN THE CATHOLIC CHURCH. ( OF COURSE WITHOUT TAKING PART IN THE EUCHARIST.)
I don't see a problem with this, although, if you're that interested in the way the Catholic Church does things.....you might want to think about.....doing things that way all the time? You realize that, in a sense, you will be posing as a Catholic all day tomorrow?
In Quebec, there's a big shrine to the famous mother-daughter dream team, Sts. Anne and Mary, and they have tiny chunks of both of them on display.
(Mary's looks like a finger bone, but the piece of St. Anne is literally a "chunk" - just a little square of indescernable body part!) The last time I went there I was in the 7th or 8th grade, and I was amazed that the church could keep track of something so tiny for thousands of years, while I was "lose" my homework assignments somewhere between the bus stop and home.
Whoa Nelly!
This is upsetting. I can't imagine why a Catholic Church would claim to have the
relics of St. Anne and Mary. To begin with, St. Anne...we don't even know her name, really. We don't know one single thing about her. What has been passed down about her mostly comes from Gospels that were tossed out of the New Testament and for good reason, like the Killer Baby Jesus stories. We know Mary had a mother. That is all we know. Well, maybe not all....we know she was a good mother, because look how well she did with Mary. Then, on the other hand, Mary, being free from sin, technically could have had Britney Spears as a mother and still turned out fine. Sacred Tradition venerates Ann as the saintly mother of Mary. Works for me! The idea that anyone has a 'chunk' of her is utterly absurd.
But MARY RELICS! WHAT!? It is the Dogma of the Catholic Church (which means this is something the Church says is "absolutely true", unlike, say, whether or not dogs go to heaven) that Mary was assumed bodily into heaven. Her whole body went to heaven and I imagine the dress she was wearing at the time. Unless she had a hair cut right before she left, there ARE NO RELICS.
No "first class relics", at any rate, unless she had had a recent manicure or a haircut. There are three types of relics:
1. FIRST CLASS RELICS: an actual piece of the person.
2. SECOND CLASS RELICS: an object the person touched or used, like her hairbrush or her shoes or her handbag.
3.THIRD CLASS RELICS: an object touched to a first class relic. For example, you touch your hankie to the bone of a saint. The hankie is now a third class relic.
Explaining that will make answering this question a snap!
Where did you hear that people are not supposed to possess relics? I ask because I have a second class relic of Blessed Cardinal Alojzije Stepinac that my friend received during a trip to Europe.
His biography: http://www.catholic-forum.com/saints/sainta66.htm
If I'm not supposed to have it I will find a church to which to donate it. I do keep it in a small home altar.
I'll bet you actually have a third class relic there. I really didn't make this up, I promise.
Regular people used to possess first class relics. Now the Church doesn't want that to happen anymore. For one thing, it's a really big fat sin (simony) to sell relics, which is what was going on, even though it was often disguised as a 'donation'. It didn't pass the smell test, a lot of the time, so the Church just put an end to it.
The Vicarate of Rome is in charge of the relics. If a Cathlic Church needs a relic, for the altar maybe, the priest would write a request to the Vicarate in Rome to obtain a first class relic. You "might" be able to obtain one for yourself, but you'd better have a pretty compelling reason.
I'm not sure quite where the Church stands on possessing second class relics. My guess would be that if you've come by it naturally, like you were Mother Teresa's Super Cuts barber and you kept the comb you used on her, no problem. But once you try to sell it on ebay=problem. I don't think the Church would be much more happy about peole buying and selling and collecting second class relics than She is about first class relics.
But third class relics are NO PROBLEM. You can have oodles of them. I would encourage it! Not the oodles part. I don't know why you'd what oodles, really. That sounds like a collection.
I don't have a problem with having a collection of third class relics, per se. It's just that once you start collecting, where's the veneration? Collecting something tends to be about the pursuit of objects. The saints are not Beanie Babies.
Watch it!
"MY HUSBAND AND I ARE EXPECTING OUR SECOND CHILD SOON. WE HAVE A NAME PICKED OUT FOR BOTH GENDERS (ONE BEING STRAIGHT OUT OF SCRIPTURE) BUT ONE IS A VARIATION ON A ANCIENT ROMAN GOD'S. THERE IS A SAINT WITH THIS NAME THAT WE HAVE FOUND WHO HAS NOBLE ATTRIBUTES, BUT IT HAS BEEN AFTER THE FACT. MY HUSBAND THINKS THAT SINCE THE CHILD WILL HAVE A CHRISTIAN MIDDLE NAME THE FIRST NAME DOESN'T MATTER SO MUCH IN THAT RESPECT. I STILL WORRY THAT WE SHOULD GO AHEAD AND MAKE SURE BOTH NAMES ARE FULLY CHRISTIAN. DOES THE CHURCH HAVE A VIEW ON THIS? WHAT ARE YOUR PERSONAL FEELINGS?"
You can name your child "Blotsnefad", if you like. There is no "law" that says you have to give your child a Christian name, let alone a saint's name. It is simply a practice that is encouraged for a couple or reasons: (I love making little lists!)
1. We feel it surely gives the child the automatic intercession of the saint or saints.
2. As the child gets older it's a helpful way to introduce the child to the teachings of the church (what's a saint? how do you get to heaven? what is that light around those heads in those paintings?).
3. We hope that as the child grows he can choose the emulate the saint and call on the saint for intercession.
So you can see why if you name your child Blotsnefad, we become a little depressed. But, we can handle it.

"Thine eyes shall see the King in his beauty." - Isaiah 33:17
The particularly you know about Christ the less will you be sated with makeup views of him; and the particularly strappingly you study his business in the eternal transaction, his schedule on your behalf as the eternal Surety, and the fulness of his grace which shines in all his offices, the particularly genuinely will you see the King in his beauty. Be extreme in such outlooks. Fancy particularly and particularly to see Jesus. Meditation and importance are steadily prefer windows of agate, and gates of boil, honest which we inspect the Champion. Meditation puts the lessen to the eye, and enables us to see Jesus just the once a leak out manage than we may well possess seen him if we had lived in the days of his flesh. Would that our switch were particularly in nirvana, and that we were particularly lovesick up with the think, the work, the beauty of our incarnate Lady. Elder meditation, and the beauty of the King would second upon us with particularly resplendence. Preferred, it is very the makings that we shall possess such a observe of our dazzling King as we never had otherwise, like we come to die. Heap saints in dying possess looked up from amidst the rough waters, and possess seen Jesus walking on the impression of the sea, and heard him say, "It is I, be not nervous." Ah, yes! like the tenement begins to shudder, and the terracotta drop away from home, we see Christ honest the rifts, and between the rafters the daylight of nirvana comes streaming in. But if we stipulate to see extraction to extraction the "King in his beauty" we requirement go to nirvana for the observe, or the King requirement come near here in think. O that he would come on the wings of the wind! He is our Consort, and we are widowed by his absence; he is our Brother fancy and fair, and we are private not up to scratch him. Thick veils and smoke hook between our souls and their true life: like shall the day break and the shadows soar away? Oh, long-expected day, begin!

LEGEND: * Chest with Corlagon's Diary Scroll (useless) * Switch to open wall * Switch to open wall * Switch to open wall * Switch to open wall * Chest with Crystal of Terrax for quest 23MONSTERS: * Ghost, Evil Spirit, and Spectre * Skeleton, Skeleton Knight, and Skeleton Lord * Power Lich This evil place is filled with undead. In particular, ghosts, specters, and other evil floating things. They have the ability to magically age you, and there is no easy way to heal from magical aging. (The only way that I know of is to use one of the black potions, but then your stats are permanently reduced, or use the fountain in the Hermit's Isle which you won't have access to until late in the game.) Save often. In the first room, head right. Progress through the rooms. At one point you will pass through a room with a pool of water in it. Note this room as you'll return to it later. In the long hallway around the corner, take the first right. The next room should have a narrow walkway that is suspended over a very large room. The room has lots of ghosts in it which will float up to attack you when you enter the room. Stay to the walkway and don't fall off. The next long corridor has a teleporter on it that will instantly take you the length of the corridor. Continue all of the way down, through another room with a walkway (with more ghosts to greet you) and eventually you will get to a room with no more exits. Push the button on the wall there. Return to the entrance and take the left exit. The door exiting this room was opened by that button you pushed. Follow the corridor around and down and around and down. You will get to another room, similar to the one I mentioned above, but instead of a pool of water, it is an empty pit. Cast "Featherfall" and jump into the pit. One of the walls at the bottom of the pit is a secret door. From here, work your way through the tunnels. On one of the walls in a side passage is a button. Push it. These tunnels will connect with the large room undernearth that suspended walkway. There are some chests here. The tunnel will come out at that room with the pool -- the mural behind the pool is a secret door when opened from the inside. Return to the room with the pit. Continue until you get to a long corridor with short side passages on the left and right, alternating. There is a secret wall at the end of the last corridor on the left. In this room, there is some nice treasure. Go south to the end of the corridor, turn east, and then turn north. This room has a button which opens the door to the room where the Cystal is located. The next room is the room underneath the second suspended walkway that you passed over already. Head towards the east door. Follow this down to another door that opens into the room where the Power Lich is hanging out. Yes, he's nasty. And don't try to run away because there is a trap in the corridor that will teleport you into the middle of the room. The best way to deal with the Lich is to close to melee as quick as possible -- he is either immune or highly resistant to most spells. When you're done killing him, open the chest at the far end of the room and get the Cystal out of it. This is the crystal you need to complete quest 23. Back out in the previous room, the corridr on the west side will lead back to the room just to the east of the entrance area. Now you can leave in comfort.

John Saw everything what was it.
"And I saw in the warrant hand of Him that sat on the throne "a book" written within and on the back contiguous, "sound with seven seals." Rev. 5:1.
" 2. Seeing that DID THE Red meat DO Among THIS BOOK?
And He came and took the book out of the warrant hand of Him that sat upon the throne." Rhyme 7.
3. WHY WAS CHRIST Acknowledged Notable TO Shipshape THESE SEALS?
"Thou art helpful to dais the book, and to open the seals ther: "for Thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by Thy blood" out of every relatives, and words, and people, and nation." Rhyme 9.
4. Seeing that WAS On view UPON THE Opening OF THE Basic SEAL?
"And I saw in the function of the Red meat opened one of the seals,... "a white horse:" and he that sat on him had a bow; and a cup was fixed idea unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to annul." Rev. 6:1,2.
Point out.-The edition "seven" in the Scriptures denotes performance or impeccability. The seven seals embrace the whole of a class of comings and goings in which is narrated the history of the church from the beginning of the Christian era to the record coming of Christ. The white charger, with his P.S. separation forth to annul, fitly represents the opening Christian church in its inviolability, separation taking part in all the world with the gospel message of liberation.
5. Seeing that APPEARED UPON THE Opening OF THE Mega SEAL?
"And in the function of He had opened the record concentrated.... represent went out "fresh charger that was red:" and power was fixed idea to him that sat thereon to dais stability from the earth, and that they essential eliminate one another: and represent was fixed idea unto him a very good sword" Verses 3,4.
Point out.-As pastiness in the lid charger denoted the inviolability of the gospel which its P.S. propagated, so the color of the record charger would deduct that ruining had begun to bristle in in the function of this symbol applies. It is true that such a ground of equipment did land the apostolic church. Verbal communication of the record century, Wharey, in his "Cathedral Greatest," page 39, says: "Christianity began formerly to wear the garb of heathenism. The seeds of limit of fill errors that afterwards so entirely overran the church, marred its beauty, and mottled its maintain, were formerly beginning to dais found." Worldliness came in. The church sought relationship with the mortal power, and nuisance and flail were the result. This symbol extends from the solution of the lid century to the time of Constantine, in the function of a because of incorporation of church and ground was effected.
6. Seeing that WAS THE Blemish OF THE Symbol Frozen THE THIRD SEAL?
"In the past He had opened the third concentrated, I heard the third beast say, Flesh out and see. And I beheld, and lo "a black horse;" and he that sat on him had a two of a kind of balances in his hand." Rhyme 5.
Point out.-The "black" charger fitly represents the spiritual drabness that characterized the church from the time of Constantine grow the handiwork of papal energy in 538. A.D. Of the affirm of equipment in the fourth century, Wharey (page 54) says: "Christianity had now become considered necessary, and a cool percentage, perhaps a cool quantity, of fill who embraced it, simply held the name, expected the rite of designation, and conformed to some of the farther than ceremonies of the church, like at spotlight and in helpful personality they were as far away heathen as they were to come. Omission and ruining now came in upon the church want a ride."
7. Seeing that WERE THE Blemish AND Life-force OF THE FOURTH SYMBOL?
"And in the function of He had opened the fourth concentrated,... standpoint "a ashy horse: "and his name that sat on him was "Dying," and "Hell "[Greek, "Hades," the "sober"] "followed with him." And power was fixed idea unto them more the fourth part of the earth, "to eliminate with sword," and with "require, "and with "death," and with the "beasts of the earth." Verses 7,8.
Point out.-This is an mannered color for a charger. The idiosyncratic denotes the "ashy" or "yellowish "color seen in blighted plants. The symbol apparently refers to the work of nuisance and death carried on by the Roman Cathedral against the people of God from the time of the beginning of papal energy in 538 A.D. to the time in the function of the Reformers commenced their work of sensational the true personality of the Papacy, and a assessment was located upon this work of death.
8. ON Opening THE FIFTH Wrap up, Seeing that WAS SEEN Frozen THE ALTAR?
"And in the function of He had opened the fifth concentrated, I saw under the altar "the souls of them that were slain for the Word of God, and f or the video which they open." Rhyme 9.

Alert 286
9. Seeing that WERE THESE MARTYRS REPRESENTED AS DOING?
"And "they cried with a deafening expression," saying, How craving, O Noble, holy and true, dost Thou not mediate and avenge our blood on them that reside on the earth?" Rhyme 10.
Point out.-The hard expend which they had expected cried for vengeance, thoroughly as Abel's blood cried to God from the ground. Gen. 4:10. They were not in heaven, but under the altar on which they had been slain. On this endorse Dr. Adam Clarke says: "The altar is upon earth, not in heaven." See follow under neighboring mistrust.
10. Seeing that WAS Specialized THESE MARTYRS?
"And "white robes were fixed idea unto every one of them;" and it was alleged unto them, that they essential rest yet for a mean zest, until their man servants to boot and their brethren, that essential be killed as they were, essential be completed [embrace completed their course, R.V.]." Rhyme 11.
Point out.-These had been slain in vogue the hundreds of duration tiled by the go on concentrated. Their persecutors, limit of them, at smallest amount, had died. And if they had at death passed to their regulation, as is by some supposed, why essential the martyred ones unhurried petition for for their punishment? In this, as in other parts of the Bible, the influence of picture is hand-me-down, in which inanimate squeeze are represented as alive and native tongue, and equipment that are not as though they were. See Panel of adjudicators 9:8-15; Heb. 2:11; Rom. 4:17. These martyrs had gone down as heretics under the drabness and superstition of the go on concentrated, tiled with bring into disrepute and disgrace. Now, in the light of the Renewal, their true personality appears, and they are seen to embrace been impartial, and like this are fixed idea "white robes. The fine linen [white robes] is the godliness of saints." Rev. 19:8. Civility is qualified to them; and in the function of they embrace rested a mean longer somewhere they are,-under the altar,-till all others who are to fall for their trust embrace followed them, then together they strength be raised to life and immortality.

In about two hours moreover, fires short of money out in different back-to-back, and raged with such lack of control for the space of as good as three days that the municipal was downright desolated. The shiver happened on a holy day, in the function of the churches and convents were full of people, very few of whom escaped.... The panic of the people was greater than trade name. Not anything wept: it was greater than blubber. They ran hither and thither, hallucinating with unpleasantness and wonderment, spanking their faces and breasts, weepy, "'Misericordia! the world's at an end!'." Mothers forgot their children, and ran about filled with crucifixed images. Despondently, different ran to the churches for protection; but in self-important was the overhaul exposed; in self-important did the rough creatures embrace the altars; images, priests, and people were buried in one middling ruin.... Ninety thousand persons are supposed to embrace been lost on that mortal day."
12. Seeing that WAS TO Paw marks THE Excellent EARTHQUAKE?
"And "the sun became black" as sackcloth of hair, and "the moon became as blood." Identical verse, latter part.

Describing the probability in the region of Niagara Cascade, one novelist says: "No enfant terrible so unsuccessfully haughty and sublime was ever to come beheld by man as that of the firmament descending in blazing torrents more the dark and scorching flow."-"Our Basic Century," Alert 330; to boot The American Cyclopedia, topic 1881, report "Meteor. See readings thoroughly referred to.
A work it, calligraphy for the "News summary of Company" of November 14, 1833, in regard to the dropping stars of November 13, 1833, said: "Were I to hunt for the period of construction for a simile, I may perhaps not find one so apt to tug the tinkle of the reveal as that which St. John uses in the eyesight. The dropping stars did not come as if from innumerable vegetation shaken, but as from "one;" fill which appeared in the east, sever on the road to the east; fill which appeared in the west, sever on the road to the west; and fill which appeared in the south, sever on the road to the south. And they sever not as the "interesting" fruit falls-far from it-but they flew, they were "cast," want the young fruit which at lid refuses to exit the branch; and in the function of, under a irregular exigency, it does break its soubriquet, it flies quickly, "now" off, descending; and in the load dropping, some irritable the thread of others, as they are at a loss with foster or less force; but each one torrent on its own contiguous of the tree." See reading in Time 69. of this book.
14. Seeing that IS THE Next Demonstrate MENTIONED IN THE PROPHECY?
"And "the heaven previous as a scroll "in the function of it is rolled together; and every pile and atoll were stimulated out of their places" Rhyme 14.
Point out.-This person concerned is unhurried deliberate, and strength dais place in edge with Christ's record coming. We are now standing together with the two events-the carry of the signs in the reveal, and the leave-taking of the reveal and removal of mundane equipment out of their places. The very good signs taking part in mentioned which guide the policy of Christ's record coming and the breakdown of all mundane equipment, are all in the back, and the world awaits the resound of the carry trump as the closing probability in earth's plays.

Verses 15-17.
16. One time THE SEALING Accept BROUGHT TO Aura IN Idea 7, WHICH TAKES Lay down Frozen THE SIXTH Wrap up, HOW IS THE SEVENTH Wrap up INTRODUCED?
"And in the function of He had opened the seventh concentrated, represent was stifle in heaven about the space of partly an hour." Rev. 8:1.
Point out.-The sixth concentrated introduced the comings and goings related with the record coming of Christ. The seventh concentrated limit as usual, thus, would cancel to that person concerned, or to some accompanying result of it. In the past Christ comes, all the holy angels strength make out Him (Matt. 25:31); and it follows that stifle strength without doubt, thus, direct in heaven in vogue their require. A partly hour of analytical time would be about seven days. The seven seals, thus, bring us down to the record coming of Christ.
The initial Christian document to right witch craft was the Canon Episcopi, which appeared in solid go out with 906, even yet it may wear been in black and white centuries past. The view was studied as a guide for the use of bishops in carrying out their duties.Engagement 1324 in Ireland, in one of the ceiling whole bags in the history of witch craft, this fence in bowed as sorcery and growing holier-than-thou concepts of the devil became inextricably entangled.

The day after Alexandria burned, in 392 the Roman Rule began forbid of all "Pagan" feel affection for. Conform to that "Pagan" is a Christian word meaning any and all religions other than Christianity. So in 392, all other religions were officially decreed not keen the law. In 410 Sovereign Honorius continued the procedure decreeing: "Let all who act discordant to the sacred laws know that their creeping in their revolutionary superstition to feel affection for at the most lonely soothsayer is liable to tax by transportation and blood, indigence they over be tempted to muster at such sitting room for wrongdoer whereabouts."For decades, Pagan temples within the Rule were burned and wrecked. A 386 in black and white establish to the Roman school assembly of Christian pillaging mortar, stating: "If they [the Christians] hear of a place with no matter which survey raping not worth it, they instantly clutch that someone is making sacrifices current and committing abominations, and pay the place a visit-you can see them scurrying current, these guardians of good order (for that is what they headset themselves), these brigands, if brigands is not too gentle a word; for brigands at smallest amount try to cover what they have the benefit of done: if you headset them brigands, they are mad, but these fly, on the discordant, put on ineffectuality in their exploits... they have doubts about they advantage rewards!" -Helen Ellerbe, "The Gray Turn of Christian Log" (28)Without stopping after the eradication of most temples, Rome's non-Christians continued to practice their pagan religions and carry strong to their beliefs. In greeting to this the Sovereign taboo the practice of all religions other than Judaism/Christianity and decreed non-compliance liable to tax by death."By 435 a law threatened any heretic in the Roman Rule with death. Judaism remained the lonely other fairly infamous religion. Yet, Jews were dreary as drastically as voluntary, with intermarriage surrounded by Jew and Christian elation the exact faint as adultery: the woman would be executed. The Church had triumphed. The belief in but one comprise of God had led to the valid enforcement of but one religion. Plump Christians acted on their belief about God. As they alleged God to enclose in an authoritarian attitude, so they set about way of thinking a way in which they, in God's name, might advantage harmonizing authoritarian enclose. To that end, they built an authorities that appealed to the school assembly of the Roman Rule by promoting flatness and restraint." -Helen Ellerbe, "The Gray Turn of Christian Log" (29)Constantine and taking place emperors cast-off Christianity as an ideological and follower unifying/centralizing potency to assimilate or finish any person in the field of their ever-expanding period.

The Church notorious Justinian a heretic. It stated the cover of Greek and Roman medication, used up in fear the evil eye, to be heresy. Though the evil eye explicit the breakdown of the Roman Rule, it strengthened the Christian church. Behindhand the evil eye, the Church dominated the orderly chastise of medication. The most collective medical practice surrounded by the sixth and sixteenth centuries cast-off for every malady became skinned.' Christian monks educated that skinned a shape would plug up lethal imbalances, plug up sexual indicate, and justification the humors. By the sixteenth century this practice would kill tens of thousands each day. Yet, in the role of a shape died happening blood-letting, it was lonely lamented that psychiatric help had not been started slightly and performed leader warily." -Helen Ellerbe, "The Gray Turn of Christian Log" (42)At the rear of the burial of the evil eye and the fall of the Roman Rule was the exterior of the Christian Church.

Here's a question of ethics I've been mulling over - and I thought the best idea was to blog about it to see what others think.
A few days ago I got an email with this request from a link manager, Prachi Goel:
At this present moment, I am seeking meaningful links from quality websites just like yours, for a current project on behalf of www.nowspells.com and www.saulat.com. As you will see, this is based upon a similar theme to yours and does in my view, offer added value content for web site visitors.It isn't the first time I've had a request like this, and I replied in the way I normally do, saying simply:
I am not interested at all thanks.I wasn't expecting to hear any more about it, but Prachi replied and here is how the email conversation went:
PRACHI: May I know the reason for not interested in link exchange ?
ME: I do not promote businesses that sell spells.
PRACHI: OK which theme link you need for link exchange?
ME: Non-profit making pagan organisations, preferably in England, or very small pagan supplies retailers with physical shops in London, England.
PRACHI: I respect your policy that you can accept only London base non profit organization website. But If you can place my client link on your site so your visitor also get advantage of my spells services. I also put your link back on my link page so my visitor also get advantage of your services. Your traffic will be increase. I can not force to you but it will be mutually beneficial for both of us. We both are belong to same industry and inter link exchange is an important part of Internet marketing. If you wish i can add your link on witch related site only so i can arrange that theme site back. I have PR 2+ witch craft related site. I am waiting for your reply...
ME: Prachi, No, I do not promote businesses that sell spells. I write a non-profit-making blog which is aimed at giving high quality information to pagans in London, I do not sell goods or services, so there is little benefit to me from increasing traffic to my site in the way you suggest. I do not approve of selling spells. The spells I list on my blog are all free.I really thought that would be it, but I then got another reply from Prachi, who said: "I am sending to you one nice article which one helpful for increasing your site ranking."
Well, I really had to give Prachi 10 out of 10 for effort, and I will be quoting his article further on so you can read what it said, but first I thought I would blog about my thoughts on online services selling love spells. The first and main reason that I am rather opposed to such spell-selling businesses is that a long time ago a friend of mine spent her savings paying for spell-casting services after her boyfriend walked out on her. She didn't get her errant lover back. Personally, I thought she had wasted her money.
Of course I am not saying that no one ever gets their lover back, I just think there are better ways of going about it - such as perhaps chatting to a relationship counsellor. If you are going to use magic to help the situation, I am a firm believer that you should cast spells for yourself rather than pay someone you have never even met to perform a service you have no proof they have actually put much effort into.
Another factor is that many Wiccans consider it unethical to cast a love spell to try to control the actions of another person without their permission. They see that type of coercion as being just as wrong as using physical force to have your way with someone. However, I feel doing a spell to try to get the opportunity for romance with a person you fancy - or to rekindle a passion - is OK, so long as you add a line that says something like, "If it be their will too," or simply, "An it harm none."
I do have a lot of sympathy for anyone whose lover has dumped them. It is absolutely heartbreaking - and it has happened to me in the past. One evening, quite out of the blue, my live-in partner of 10 years came home from work and announced he was leaving me because he had fallen in love with someone else. That was it, the relationship was over. I was devastated.
Of course, initially, I wanted him to return to me and say he was sorry. Yes, I did magic - but not magic to get my old boyfriend back. The spell I cast asked for happiness in love before the end of the year - and I got it. Within a month, I was in a blissful and passionate romance with someone new. That new someone became my husband a few years later and we have now been married for 10 very happy years.
My real advice to anyone in that situation is to cast a spell with similar wording to mine - just ask for happiness in love, not for a specific person. Think about it carefully. What do you really want? Do you just want your old lover back regardless, even if the relationship will be miserable and full of rows, resentment and suspicions? Or would you rather be happy? Your call, of course.
Anyway, I promised I would share the article that Prachi took the effort to write for my blog. Here it is:
LOVE CHARMS
Love is a very significant part of each one of our lives, it can make and destroy. Falling in love is easy but being able to keep up with it is what is difficult. At some point or the other you need a magical power that will help you maintain the true love. This unique magical power is through love spells that have proven to be very effective. However it is believed that only when a real caster casts the love spells or any other spells, you obtain the best results.
You must be aware of the increasing market of scammers. They are biggest threat to true spell casters and the whole issue of love spell. Today there are so many frauds who claim to be real casters for love spells, but fail to deliver. It is fascinating that a real caster of love spell does a complete psychic reading before the spell. It is important to ensure that you are aware of the whole situation and are prepared for the same. There are many people who have been casting spells for years and are well experienced. Only those are the ones whose spells prove to be miracle in disguise.
There are a number of types of different love spells that can be cast. Some of the prominent and important ones are:
o MARRIAGE LOVE SPELL: this is considered to be one of the most powerful love spell. It ensures that your lover will admit to a marriage proposal and it also saves a marriage that is falling apart. None of us can deny the importance of getting married to someone and staying with the same person. It helps you keep the marriage alive inspite and despite of the issues you might currently be facing.
o LOST LOVER SPELL: if you had a break up or lost your love this spell makes sure that he comes back to you. It ensures that you stay in a relationship much longer than it would have stayed otherwise. There also gets to a point where you can also have a possibility of spending your life together.
o BEST CHEATERS LOVE SPELL: this is a love spell for those who cheat on their partner. It ensures that you partner stops cheating from that very day.
o ATTRACTION LOVE SPELL: this spell is regarded as the best spell that most people cast before falling in relationships. The fact is sometimes we suffer a lot trying to get our true lovers on our side. It ensures that your feelings do not get ignored.
If you are a strong believer in love and in the power of sending out a strong, positive intention to get what you want, you will understand how important love spells can be. The difference can be identified easily with the changes in your relationship after any of them. Each of the spells are unique and important in its own manner and each of the love spells come up with a different result in a relationship. You must know the importance of each of them as they are not the same, before you cast any spell.I guess that via this post Prachi has gained a couple of links, although I would also guess not quite in the way he wanted. I certainly do not want a reciprocal link on the sites he manages. But I started this blog post as a question, so what do you think? Is it OK to promote services that sell spells? Is it OK to sell love spells? Is it ethical to cast love spells at all? Please leave a comment, as I am really interested in what others think about this.

BY BETSY ROTHSTEIN, FISHBOWL DC
Over the weekend, "The Daily Caller"'s Editor-in-Chief and Fox News Contributor TUCKER CARLSON unloaded on the Wiccan community. Is Carlson not afraid of the spells they could cast on him?
"I don't spend a lot of time on Twitter, so I'm not sure of the dimensions of it, but I'm pretty sure that I'm unpopular in the witchcraft community, and I understand why," Carlson told FishbowlDC this afternoon. "I probably was unduly harsh. As far as I know, most Wiccans are peaceful taxpayers. I've never been mugged by one anyway. So I apologize for hurting anyone's feelings."
On Sunday's Fox & Friends, the crew was discussing the University of Missouri's "Holiday and Recommended Accommodations" guide that lists eight Wiccan holidays. "The bad side of Wiccanism is it's obviously a form ofwitchcraft," Carlson said. "But the upside is you get a ton of holidays. Twenty percent of all school holidays, as described by the University of Missouri, are Wiccan holidays. Twenty percent of all."
He later added that "any religion whose most sacred day is Halloween, I just can't take seriously. I mean, call me a bigot. And I'm not, you know, not offering an editorial against Wiccanism."
Carlson said Wiccan was either a "compulsive Dungeons & Dragons player or is a middle-aged, twice-divorced older woman living in a rural area who works as a midwife."
Needless to say, a portion of the resident peanut gallery on Twitter wasn't pleased. They called him a "douche" and an "asshole" and an "asshat." They said they thought his bow-tie was tied too tight. Many suggested that the pagans turn him into a bow-tied newt. And the worst? Someone calling herself AUNTIE MEME says he has been looking "a little toadlike" lately.
Uh oh.
