Multiplicity:The Problem of Many and One In the last column we discussed the problem of existence, how Pagans could approach the ontological questions of existence in a way that includes multiplicity of beliefs.  Now I want to discuss the problem of multiplicity of Gods and Goddesses, not just existence.  Why many, instead of one? That is a fundamental question associated with Pagan belief.  First we need to define what exactly we mean by “many”.  There are several interpretations of what we mean by the word “many”.  We may mean that we have only one God or set of Gods and Goddesses, but we accept the existence of others, within the…

When you think about your favorite magical tools, do you ever consider the telephone? Here’s a few ideas which may make a common household object seem very, very magical! Focus and Direct Energy: Focusing and directing energy is a basic principle of magic. That’s exactly what you do when you make a phone call. You are sending your intent via waves of electricity going through copper wires. In some cases you are using pulses of light going through fiber optics. But in either case, you are directing energy exactly where you choose. Bells: Many use bells in magic to project energy through sound waves. Why not use the ringing of…

Friends The Way to Escape: Life is like being caught up inside an empty bottle… Even buzzing much around like a housefly one gets actually nowhere & quite often ends up stone dead, lying heaped up among other corpses on the bottom… The only Way out is Upwards, towards the Light and through the always apparent yet as if hidden hole & out into the open & free space !!! ‘Inside the Bottle’ signifies the repeated round of rebirth & death, again & again in this Samsara – ‘Buzzing Around’ signifies the useless & futile urge craving, & monotonic restless stress of life itself! ‘Upwards’ signifies progress along increased morality,…

Come with me in our fourth monthly walk through the Door. Look up the words, "paganism", "ritual" and "mental illness" (or "mental health"), and you will find a vast number of websites and articles. Look them up together, however, and you will start seeing stuff about "satanic ritual abuse", "obsessive-compulsive rituals", and a number of other dark issues. Let me state categorically that there either is no such thing as "satanic ritual abuse" or it is so rare that the police cannot find anything. The people who are running workshops on the subject are simply in it for the money, whether they call themselves "seminar presenters", "ministers", or whatever. (If…

     Psychic power. We use it every day. We cause things to happen; we shape events with our mind. We can do this, because every thought is a prayer.                  Thoughts are a powerful form of energy. They are very real and very potent. Look for their energy not just in deep meditation or altered states of mind, but any time! In fact, your life is more likely to be shaped by what goes through your mind during your daily shower, than during meditation.                  When we first discover magic and spirituality, we tend to clearly define when we are "doing it" and when we are not. We draw…

An easy and clear way to contact your Guardian Angel is by asking him to come and join your daily activities. Angels are ready to help us because it’s their mission. Thus, they become very happy when we invite them to our lives. It’s their natural way of being. Invite your Guardian Angel as you would to a new or a very dear friend. Speak with him and open your heart to him. With all sincerity. Even if you don’t believe but feel you want to, say just it. He understands. Or if you feel that you don’t know how to speak to him but still want to feel his…

On the Move: It’s What Inside That Counts The Lighthouse. Morgan arrives home and finds Weyland in the living room, surrounded by sealed cardboard boxes. He’s taping up the last one with a tired grunt. Morgan: Wow, you’ve been busy! Weyland (dull eyed and groggy): You ain’t a-kiddin’, babe. This room’s done. Shot, stuffed, and mounted. (Wipes an arm across his forehead.) Whew! Morgan: You must be exhausted. How about a frosty drink? Weyland: If I can sit down first you’ve got yourself a deal. Morgan: What’s that noise? Weyland: What noise? A scratching sound is coming from inside a nearby box. Morgan (pointing at the box, which has begun…

     Since the earliest times, crystals have been revered as a scared gift from the Goddesses and Gods. They are sacred magical tools, which have been used for psychic powers, healing, spiritual development, protection and divine guidance. Their use is intimately connected with religion, ritual and magick. Both Pagan’s and Non-Pagans believe in the power that the crystal possess. In this article we will look at a small history about crystals, how they are used and why we are drawn to them.      Seeing people wearing rock crystal or amethyst points hung on chains and earring or set in rings is not uncommon anymore. Usually when some people hear or think of…
