A Samhain Self-Tarot Reading (Tattoo Tarot Deck)

By PaganismNo Comments

I recently treated myself to a gorgeous Tarot Deck called Ink & Intuition, which is available to buy on Amazon here.

With all the talk of another lockdown and the tier system, for the first time since I can remember, I have done nothing to celebrate Samhain.

Well apart from a self-tarot reading for the next 12 months. Here is what the future has instore for me:

My Self-Tarot Reading (left to right) – The Sun Nov./Dec/Jan 20/21, 3 of Swords Feb/Mar/Apr 21, King of Wands May/Jun/Jul 21, Justice Aug/Sept/Oct.
  • November, December & January – The Sun, Daylight. Peace. Contentment. Devotion. Work’s rewards. Accomplishment. Joy. Please. Love. Success. Engagement. Team efforts bringing good results.
  • February, March & April – 3 of Swords, Disruptive forces. Incompatibility. Heartache. Distance. Absence. Alienation. Unrest. Confusion. Delay. Loss of bearings. Loss of moral compass. Resolving a moral dilemma. Victory through right actions. The healing power of pure intentions. No pain, no gain.
  • May, June & July – King of Wands, Estate owner or manager. Wise. Conscientious. Educated. Pillar of the community. Good mediator. Devoted, loyal. Good conscience.
  • August, September & October – Justice, Balance. Equilibrium. Equality. Symmetry. Harmony. Integrity. Honour. Fairness. Neutrality. Moderation. Attraction and repulsion polarity. Oversensitivity.

At a time when the world is in chaos it can be difficult to look forward into the future. Especially as no one knows what it will look like. There’s a feeling of a loss of control over one’s life. But there is hope.

The future is full of infinite possibilities, because it has not yet happened. With this in mind I’ll be making plans to ensure the year ahead is a happy one and one to remember.

Candle Magic: The Basics

By PaganismOne Comment

Candle magic has grown in popularity in the Pagan community. This is because candle spells are simple, yet highly effective. There is a spell for every occasion or to deal with every problem in a person’s life.

Power is raised for a spell through visualisation, words of power and emotions. Tip: Emotions are the key to successful spells.

First visualise what you want to happen, be as detailed as you can. At the same time imagine in your heart how this would make you feel. Imagine both the thoughts and emotions as energy and imagine them mixing together through out your body. Hold the energy until it has built up, then say your words of power, say the spell, seeing and feeling the energy flow from you and into the candle through your mouth. Repeat this 9 or 12 times.

The energy is now stored in the candle. Once you have done this you can either:

  • Light the candle which will slowly release the energy into the universe OR
  • Anoint the candle with appropriate essential oils, prior to lighting. Not sure what essential oils to use? I would highly recommend you buy The Complete Book of Incense, Oils and Brews by Scott Cunningham.
  • Tip: You can also scratch symbols on the candle using a sharp knife. Do this before anointing the candle.

The colour of the candle should match your spell’s purpose. Here is a brief colour magic guide:

White – All purpose colour, can be used for any type of spell.

Black – bindings, banishings, separation, keeping things hidden from view, getting rid of bad habbits.

Blue – healing, clarity, anything to do with Water or emotions, calmness, protection (also purple for psychic protection) and peace.

Brown – stability, houses/homes.

Green – money, growth, fertility.

Purple – co-operation, psychic development, respect from others.

Orange – attraction, personal motivation, energy, feeling alive, business projects.

Pink – self-love, friendships, magic for children, romantic love (at a push),

Red – romantic love, sex, lust, passion, inner strength.

Yellow – happiness/joy, creativity and success.

The above are very basic instructions for how to cast a candle spell. There can be much more to it than that including but not limited to: casting a bubble of protection prior to casting the spell, other ways of raising or drawing energy from other sources, calling in deities or other spirits for help. The books below all explain more:

Some Good Books on Candle Magic

If you’re looking for small quick-burn candles I’d recommend these. Remember it isn’t the size of the candle that counts, but how much energy you put into it.

By Amazon, ShoppingNo Comments

Apparently bum bags are back in fashion. I don’t quite how or why this 90s thing has made a come back, but seen as how it has, here is my list of bum bags for men. All from Amazon and in order of preference:

Superdry Freshman Black

Made by Superdry this two compartment bum bag is perfect for carrying those small essentials.

Price: £18.28, Buy Here.

Nike Bum Bag

I love the design of this bum bag. Nike have kept the traditional triangle shape of the bum bag but made it look more sleek and modern by giving it sharper angles.

This bum bag has one main compartment with double zip closure and a discreate pocket (that is also zip closure) on the back.

Perfect for a day out at he zoo, theme park or other attraction (yes I am aware that we are currently in various tiers of lockdown).

Price: £12.00, Buy Here.

Eastpak Springer Bum Bag

This simple one compartment bum bag comes in a vast array of colours and is a best seller on Amazon.

Price: £11.95, Buy Here.

Waterproof Bum Waist Bag

This massive bum bag has 5 sections: a front pocket, two side pockets, a back pocket and the main compartment.

I’ve nick named this the Survival Bum Bag based on its colour and large capacity.

Among its features are: a key hook in a zipped pocket and headphones hole. The bag is said to be fully waterproof.

It comes in a variety of colours including: army green (image left), camo, dark blue, dark green and black.

It reminds me of something a prepper might have.

It is perfect for a camping or glamping holiday.

Price: £16.68, Buy Here.

OLEADER Tactical Waist Pack 

This is similar to the bum bag above, just not as big and with not as many features.

It has a main compartment that is big enough to hold a 500mls water bottle.

It has two side pockets secured with both zips and straps, a front pocket secured by a clip/flap and zip closure.

It comes in a variety of military style colours, check them out on Amazon. This bum bag is perfect for any man going commando in nature.

Price: £13.99, Buy Here.

MAXTOP Bumbag

As bum bags go this is pretty cool. It has a main compartment with an internal zipped pocket; a front and back zip pockets and a hole for headphones.

The material is water resistant and looks durable.

The fully adjustable strap contains a closed key loop and a safety reflection loop.

Price: £8.99, Buy Here.

I like the colour of this bum bag. It has: a main compartment with an internal zipped pocket, a front zipped pocket, a key hook and a reflective strip on the front for additional safety at night.

Adidas Linear Core Bag

Adidas’ 2020 version of the bum bag. Sleek, simple and with any extra material got rid of in the design.

This is perhaps my favourite bum bag, despite its impracticable small sized compartment.

AirZyx Bum Bag

This bum bag has two compartments and a front pocket all with zip closures to keep your valusbles safe.

It comes in a variety of colours including: black (image left), light blue, dark blue, olive green, purple, red and pink.
