Hopefully when I go off to college, my roomie wouldn't mind if I set up an alter. I actually haven't ever used an alter.

I always wear two pieces of jewellery; the first is a sterling silver Egyptian Ankh, the second a sterling silver band engraved with a norse/celtic knot-work pattern that my boyfriend bought for me when we went to Iceland. They're my charms, i lose either and i feel so vulnerable!

My alter's portable, it has to be. It used to be permanent but now there's nowhere i can put it. T T it was so pretty too

I have a portable alter!

And I want me some Nordic Jewelery. I saw this really awesome piece at FPG, when I went out there to celebrate Beltane. But it was close to 60 bucks. =[

I also need a quartz want pendant. But those are super expensive, too.

My best friends favorite symbol is the ankh. I actually, stole his ankh ring awhile back. xDD; He had to go out and buy himself another one.

I don't really understand a whole lot about what you've been saying about the colors, but I'm trapped in the middle of the bible belt, and have been unable to find anything about Paganism. I've read some of what is avalible on the first page... I'm just still very new to this, and feel out of my depth.

Ask anything you'd like, i'll be happy to clear it up. If i can't then someone else can. Is it how colour magick works in general or . . .?

Um... Yeah. I'd really like a basic dumbed down explanation of color magic. And I'll remember and probably come to ask you guys a lot of qustions over the next few weeks.

I really do need to hang around here more often...

I've drifted a bit from the path. But all of that was renewed after the Beltane celebration I went to for a week.

Anywho! I'm off to go swim. I should be back soon. If I'm not.. well.. its probably because my moms suckered me into watching more Doctor Who. xDD;

colour magick is one of the simplest forms of magick you can use. In fact you use it every day without knowing!

You ever look at a bright yellow daffodil and think "i feel so cheerful now i've seen that" or at a nice blue sea and thought "I feel so calm." That's colour magick at work. It uses colours to influence something.

Usually, we use it to influence emotions, for example; wearing something red on a first date. In witchcraft it goes one step further, in a small way.

Colour in the Craft represents particular things. For example if i say white, you would say something like purity or innocence. We use it to symbolise and establish the goal we desire in a spell. For example the money spell i've posted previously (check Raven's Corner) uses a green candle, because green can represent financial luck.

A lot of these correspondences are common sense. Like red, orange and yellow representing fire, blues and greens show water, greens and browns are earth, yellows, pale blues and whites/silvers are air and so on. It's best to start off with what each colour means to you and build from there.

The detailed versions i'm posting go a little further and address the aura, chakras (in detail), astrology and so on.

Really, feel free to ask questions. we're all about helping out in here :D

And yes Batz, you do need to come here more often even if you are just stalking me :D

Oh... I think I understand. Cool. So some of the colors connect to the different elements?

Yep. And some to planets, which takes into account the property of both colour and celestial body. For example: Saturn is principally known as a champion of binding and protection, so purple and black are both representative of Saturn.

Some, like the Sun and Moon (i know, they're not planets, i thought that too, but remember that years ago humans didn't know that. and maybe we're wrong nowadays anyway :D ) are common-sense again. The Sun is made of fire, so gold, red, yellow and orange, sometimes also pinks, are representative of the sun. For the Moon think white, grey and silver, like its light and the moon itself.


(I'll go more into planets later on for everyone; i need to get it sorted for myself before i post much more :D )

See what i mean. It's simple once you figure it out. So, if i say healing, what colour do you think of?


Red in a bedroom huh, that would be passion and warmth, or anything else you might think of ;)
(maybe i should write a book about all this stuff :D i don't seem to be doing a bad job of explaining lol)
