Witchcraft

Magic/the arts is a form of witchcraft and the way Hollywood show's magic/the arts is soo fake and untrue spells take time to work and so does rituals when you go into real witchcraft you must do the mathematics(math)and add in probability(chances of your spells/rituals working) and you also must add in the right candles,images,and so on to get the right effect.the craft is like a food recipe you have to add in the right ingredients to get the best taste so that's how real arts work you must know what you are doing if you don't know how to do it the right way then don't do it at all its like the saying speak what you know and if you don't know then don't talk about it.

Also you need to be completely insane for that kind of stuff to work, or to want to control demons that there is a very high chance you are simply opening the door to be possessed by the devil

Certainly. Just as there are physical actions that by their very nature cause harm, there are spells which, no matter your intent, can do less good than harm. For instance, a love spell which targets a specific person. On the surface, this seems to be a positive thing: I love this person and want the person to know and feel the same way. However, person-specific love spells are manipulative. They interfere with the desires of another, and quite possibly make someone else unhappy (what if that person is loved by someone else, and up until the spell is cast, that person reciprocates that love?) This is only one of many examples I could name of spells that create negative effects. Because of what is known as the law of returns, these spells bring the user long-term harm and disappointment.

Hahaha no chucky is not witchcraft otherwise we would be casting spells already, well those who have watched the movie. It's just a movie that is well strange and odd.

That will depend on the witch. Personally I have cast spells for weather, for luck, for prosperity, for protection when I travel, and for health, just to name a few. Incantations are the words (often in the form of a poem or rhyme) used to cast spells.

Not all practitioners use rhyming incantation, I tend to think it is unnecessary and makes getting the wording "just right" some what more difficult. When casting spells one does not want any ambiguity in the wording. The gods tend to be pretty literal in their response.

Witchcraft is taught in various ways. The best way is to find someone who has been a practitioner for several years and find out how they learned.

Most metaphysical bookstore have a notice board where you may find postings for Pagan gatherings, this might be a good place to start.

Do not be taken in by the "trappings" of "flash" of those you meet. Trust your own instincts to find someone who is honest and trustworthy.

If all else fails you can do some of the research yourself. There are a large number of very good books out there to start you on your way, however, you will do best if you are taught by someone. If you are looking for book, anything by Scott Cunningham, Ray Buckland, Amber K, or even Starhawk are excellent starts. Read carefully, take only what you feel comfortable with and ask as many questions as you feel you need to.

No such thing. You've been watching Charmed too much. Turn off the TV and put down the remote.

yes. but whoever you're thinking of, probably isn't

The oak leaf and acorn are symbols of the pagan Oak King. The Oak King is the masculine aspect of the god who rules from the Winter solstice to the Summer solstice.

Acorns are used as fertility talismans, and oak leaves are sometimes used in spells for prosperity, virility, stability, protection and/or stamina.

Yes you can but there are a few things to keep in mind before createing your own spell/ritual here are the few things you must keep in mind at all times in magic, (1)the knowledge:you must know what magic/the craft is and how true magic works. (2.)openmined:you must have hope and believe in magic/the craft always doing magic. (3.)the will to do:you must have a strong will and mind to bend the energy in magic to get the effects you like/want to happen like:geting a friend to fall in love and so on. (4.)karma:you must understand that what goes around comes around so what ever energy you put out in the world/on a person both negative or positive will come back to you 4 times stronger. So as long as you can keep all 4 of these things in mind you can create what ever kind of spell you want but make sure you know what kind of spell/ritual you are createing.

Allegations of witchcraft were real enough in the middle ages. In Henry VI Parts 1 and 2 two different women are accused of witchcraft, including Joan of Arc, who was indeed accused of witchcraft and burned at the stake. Shakespeare was only reflecting the truths of history.

Sympathetic magic-like breeds like is a sort of primitive religious practice and has nothing to do with (magic) as a showtime thing, or an entertainment device. for example the largely disproved pseudo-science of Pluviculture or rain-making so-called modern rainmakers used various sound devices, and in some cases- and in a way this was not too far off the scientific beam, large, bellows-like devices mounted on the back of wagons- more modernly trucks- to evaporate powders into the air and thus allegedly speed up the precipitation cycle. I seem to recall an episode about a Horse and buggy era Rainmaker on (Bonanza) he had the odd bellows-pump device mounted on the back of a freight wagon, essentiallya horse-drawn truck. ( not a chuck wagon for foodstuffs!) some of the more highbrow (rainmakers) would study weather almanacs and such like -and when they figured a storm front was approaching but not too visible- would start their ( war Whoops) or whatever, Pluv iculture is let"s face it a quack science gunned down by modern meterology. thunder struck indeed! but- its a form of sympathetic magic as are some faith cures.Does that answer your question? its not an art form or stage stunt! - - - Sympathetic Magic is based on the universal belief that like affects like. It is the foundation for most forms of divination and practices such as voodoo and psychometry. Sympathetic Magic is based on two principals: "like produces like" (or cause and effect), and secondly that things that have been in contact with each other continue to react upon each other - even after they have been disconnected. Magicians ascertain they can produce a desired effect by assuming it. They infer that whatever they do to a material object will equally effect the person who had contact with that object.This is why when spell casting a practitioner will have a personal possession of the person such as hair, nail clippings etc.. An example of sympathetic magic is poppet healing. The practitioner performs a healing ritual on a poppet symbolising the person in need. This action is believed to bring about the positive changes needed in the patient.

Same as they still believe: that there's something out there that will keep them safe or help them become powerful. Many people believe in such things; some call it magic, some call it religion, some call it superstition. It's the same mindset that leads people to be sucked in to paying lots of money towards scams that promise happiness.

The word Witch may be used for both sexes. It is gender neutral. It stems from the old English words Wicca and Wicce which were gender relative. A Wicca was in essence a male witch while a female was known as Wicce.

No, not necessarily. Pharmacia is like Ayurveda. Pharmacia is the western version of the eastern Ayurveda. It incorporates maintaining physical well being with natural resources (which is more a sustainable health than the temporary-relief/euphoria you get from Allopathic medicine).

To be a successful practitioner of witchcraft, one has to be in good physical health. Therefore, the practitioners of Witchcraft prefer the ancient ways of properly maintaining physical health (by Pharmacia or Ayurveda). Practitioners of witchcraft can get extra benefit of Pharmacia by spiritually elevating the medicinal properties of plants. But that is not necessarily an integral part of Pharmacia.

Pharmacia can be practised by anyone with proper knowledge of the botanicals and their effects on life, health and well-being.

The eastern belief is that the knowledge of Ayurvedha was given to the humankind by a Diety "Dhanvantari"

Nope. You're thinking of Tarzan.

A Witch's companion is often a black cat, or a familiar. A familiar is a creature said to feed from a numb spot on the Witch where the blood doesn't flow. They are said to live on the witch on a mole or wart, that's why witches are often characterized with a wart on their nose.

Lots of spells for dark magic. Stuff that could give you nightmares.

Witches would probably tell you yes. More sceptical people would say, "prove it." Make up your own mind.

In England, Scotland, and most of Ireland, the Witchcraft Act was repealed in 1951. It remained in place in the Republic of Northern Ireland until 1983, although it was never enacted.The Witchcraft Act was officially replaced by the Fraudulent Mediums Act 1951. This act prohibits any person from claiming to be a psychic, medium, or other spiritualist while attempting to deceive and make money. It excludes stage magic which is purely for entertainment purposes. In the USA Witchcraft is not illegal, but in Israel and Saudi Arabia laws are still in place, and punishments can be severe.

Technically you don't summon a familiar, a familiar chooses the person in which they will work with. This is for better energy flow and less controversy or arguments.

No. Spells and magic are entirely fantasy and do not exist in the real world.

You may use this only three times in between the new moons.

While gazing at the moon, repeat the following:

"Moon, moon, beautiful moon, brighter than any star,

Goddess of light and love, Diana if it might be,

pray bring fortune unto me".

A sign that the spell worked would be coins doubling in the purse or pocket, or seeing a hare before dawn.

Note: The spell won't work if done with evil intent.

no there are good witches and bad witches, theres many type of witches such as satanic witches and pagan witches, etc. i know from experience my neighbor was a wiccan witch and she would go to church and hear christian music and she would have all these rare items. like i went to her house and she had a big star with words on it and like numbers, letters.
