Powerful juju doesn't have to be complicated, but it does need to be a physical act undertaken with commitment and sincerity. You must commit to your magickal works if you want them to have any chance of succeeding. I find powerful juju in the morning mist when I water my plants, flowers, and trees. I find powerful juju in the prism colors of bubbles I blow in my morning ritual space. Nature, trees, water, bubbles. I think we can all clearly see why those spaces would hold powerful juju. However, there is another space where I find super powerful juju, and that space belongs to dolls. Dolls. Not everyone is akin to having dolls do magickal work for them. Some people are terrified of ...
So, you just realized you are sharing space with a ghost; now what? A startling amount of folks will tell you to build an altar and give them offerings, or call a priest and have the home exorcised, but I would not recommend either of these options. I've been a paranormal investigator for fifteen years, and a psychic medium for much longer than that. Along the way, I've gotten to know quite a few ghosts, and helped many of them find peace by crossing over to the other side or by cohabitating comfortably with their living roommates.

Jung tells us that, "People will do anything, no matter how absurd, in order to avoid facing their own souls. One does not become enlightened by imagining figures of light, but by making the darkness conscious." We need to honor and ...
When I started researching the historical roots of Werewolf Magick, I was shocked that, from prehistory on, there was so much romance as well as wild wolfy stuff mentioned. There were a lot of ancient werewolf temples with shapeshifters and clearly sexy rites, like Mt. Lykaion in Greece. The werewolf festivals were even wilder and more erotic, like the four-day drunken orgy of Roman Lupercalia, where the Luperkal or "werewolf priests" ran about in a frenzy encouraging a lot of out of control public behavior for which you'd be arrested today. Much of this crazy partying and wildness was (and still is—see my books) about invoking werewolf magick to unleash the ecstasy of letting your ...
