The Truth To How A Spell And Happiness Works

WARNING: VERY IMPORTANT POST! DO EVERYTHING YOU CAN TO MAKE SURE TO SPREAD THE WORD ABOUT THIS!!! MAKE YOUR FRIENDS/FAMILY/COVEN READ THIS POST! THIS WILL CHANGE THEIR LIVES!

Hi everyone! Today is not only my baby brother's first birthday, but it has been the first year and one day that I have been Pagan, and it also happens to be my choir concert. Strange how the Universe helped these events come around. Anyway, you're not here about me! You're here to learn the secret as to how a spell works!!!

Yes, there is magic to it, that is not a doubt in mind. It is a strong belief of mine that magic is real and that it runs its course through everything in the world; we are all touched by it! Imagine that event where something impossible happened, like the girl/boy you asked out actually said yes! Or you found some cash laying on the side of the road. These events are connected. Call it magic, call it luck, but the source of the power all came from you! The secret is you!

"Me?" You're probably wondering. And I answer "Yes! You! All of you!"

Understand, before those small, seemingless events came to pass, I bet you were probably thinking about finding cash or just hoping and wishing really hard that the person you asked out would say yes. The greatest thing a person can have is belief, or faith, if you will. Think about the time you said "I'm going to be rich one day", or "That's going to be my house!". And then you pictured yourself there, in that house, or with all that money and spending it. I bet you probably smiled, didn't you? If you have never done something like this, just wait, I'll give you some exercises to use.

When it comes to spells, this applies immensely. A spell is based off a person's energy. Why do you think we meditate before we cast a spell? Why do we burn incense to calm our nerves, mind, and body? It's because we place ourselves in a better place and a better mood. When you cast your spell, not only are you praying to your God(s) that it works, but you envision it happening! Think about a love spell. There are certain love spells that require you to envision the person you are casting that spell over. Why? So that it can come true!

Here's an example: A few months ago, I cast a spell that was to get a guy that I liked to text me. It worked within five minutes, five hours, or five days (Those of you who have used this spell know what I'm talking about!). Thing was, I really, REALLY liked this guy, and everyday I would think about him texting me and all the things he would say. Within five days, it worked! He did text me back! Yes, the spell worked, but it could not have manifested itself it I had not put my energy into the spell, envisioning the outcome. Because I believed/had faith, I got exactly what I wanted.

Now, this wasn't some high-level witch powers that suddenly came onto me. I've only been a Pagan for a year and a day, I don't think someone could own master powers in that amount of time after casting minor spells. It might be possible, but that's not the point. The point is you've got to believe! Sure, it sounds like a Disney movie about faith, dust, and pixie dust (Peter Pan), but it's the truth! The best part is that this doesn't JUST work on spells, this works on life as well!

Remember those times when we would create a dream board? We would list out the qualities we would want in our mate, print out pictures of the house we would want, the perfect job, the kids. If not, don't worry, I'll explain.

Your 'Dream Board' Project

A dream board is basically a collection of things that you want to achieve in your life, or you just want. Here's a list of things you might want to think about:

• Dream job (teacher, anthropologist, president, traveler, etc.) 
• Dream Guy/Girl (qualities, traits, personality, etc.)
• Dream Car (mustang, tundra, camaro, el camino, impala, etc.)
• Dream Travels (Egypt, India, Europe, Nepal, etc.)
• Dream House (mansion, cottage, suburb, apartment, etc.)

Here's some examples of MY dream board (please don't judge!): 

There is so much you can do to create your dream board! These are just ideas! Every time you think "Oh, I wish I could do that", find a picture that relates to it or write it down and post it on your dream board! Hang your board in your office, in your school locker, just in a place you will be sure to see it! I cannot stress how much it is that you have to SEE it, because, every time you look at it, you'll imagine wanting to do everything that's on that board in a blink of an eye; the white-picket-fence house you always wanted, the adventures you wanted to do, the inspiration you wanted to spread through the world!

Now, this does come with a warning. You see, if there is a little seed of doubt that is planted within you that says "This will never happen" then it won't! Thing is, the Universe is working to conspire to make you happy, to give you the things you want. Be it the Gods, be it something beyond our understanding, don't know! I only know that if you believe it, IT WILL HAPPEN. 

Imagine the thing you want most like a seed. You send your energy out into the Universe saying "Hey, I really want to have that El Camino within the next year", the Universe weaves its threads together and that little seed is growing and growing as seeds do. And just as the seed is about to rise up out of the ground maybe a few months later, you start to think "I'm never going to get that El Camino, it's not worth it anymore" the Universe is like "Oh, okay you don't want this anymore" and then just takes the gift back because of your doubt.

I don't know if this helped you very much, or if I explained this very well, so here: Look for the book The Secret. Seriously, I know it seems cheesy, but I have to give credit to its author for this gift of insight. There is so many ways to apply The Secret to one's life, like having positive thoughts for a spell. Just a thought. just an insight for you.

I'll let you in on a little secret of my own: after discovering The Secret, I have never been so happier, nor have I felt so confident or free. Think about it: Our Gods want us to be happy, because if we're happy we'll love them and they'll love us. I know it seems like they're using us, but that's just not it. They truly want us to be happy, because they know how terrible our lives can be, so they are right there, holding their hands out to us, saying "When you want us, when you are ready for us, we WILL help you!" Friends, brothers and sisters, please take their hands, because we deserve to be happy.

Your lips so soft, your eyes so bright,
I need you on this lonely night.

Hathor

Hathor - Eye Of Re

Hathor's many titles include, "The Eye Of Re", "Lady of the West", "The Mistress of Heaven", "The Lady of the Stars", "The gold that is Hathor", "Lady Of Denderah", "Lady of the Sycamore" and "The Golden One".

Hathor, was the daughter of Re, the Sun God, and was at times known as the "Eye of Re", and identified as an avenging deity in the form of a lion called Sakhmet. Sent out by Re, in the form of a large all seeing eye, to watch over mankind, When she was too fiercely aroused she could become savage and destructive. Hathor, was probably the origin of the concept of the 'evil eye'. The Ankh, is thought to have been derived from Hathor's Eye and is a symbol of good luck, keeping fortune dwelling on the inside.

Hathor was a cow-goddess of ancient origin, as "Mistress of Heaven", she was seen as the celestial cow, whose four legs supported the vault of heaven and her star spangled belly was the sky itself. In Predynastic Egypt, however, it is uncertain if a cult was dedicated to Hathor or Bat as the most likely candidate for the cow-heads on the Narmer Palette (approx 3000BC).

She is also a mother goddess and closely associated with the kings and pharaohs, at the temple at Deir el-Bahri, she is shown as the heavenly cow suckling the pharaoh. Royal ladies often took the title 'priestess of Hathor' in her honour.

She was also the goddess who protected women during pregnancy and childbirth. As a Goddess of fertility and moisture, she was associated with the inundation of the Nile, in this aspect she is linked to the Dog-star Sothis whose rising above the horizon heralded the annual flooding of the Nile. She ruled the month of Athyr, 17th September (the birthday of Hathor) to 16th October, being the third month of the Inundation Season. As the goddess of music and dancing her symbol was the sistrum.

Hathor, on the column capitals in her shrines is often depicted with the ears of a cow and a crown formed of horns supporting the disc of the Sun. The crown symbol was later adopted by Isis. She is also depicted as the papyrus reed (a ritual of plucking up papyrus stalks was performed in her honour), a snake 'who laughs with Wadjet', or a sistrum (a type of rattle).

The sycamore was sacred to Hathor, this association was later assumed by Isis, who took over most of the associations of Hathor. The sycamore was a sacred tree that offered shade and refreshment to the dead as they undertook their journey from this world to the next.

The entry to the underworld, was thought to be on the western horizon, the place of the setting sun, and the kingdom of the dead was called the "Land of the western Ones", hence her title as "Lady of the West". In the Book of the Dead she is refered to as 'Lady of the headland of Manu' (the western mountains) and is joined by the Sun God Re as he sinks below the horizon. Her protection extends to those deceased in the Underworld, in the form of a garment known as the 'tjesten', which affords a safe path, past enemies dwelling on the Island of Fire.

Hathor as a Goddess of Love, Music and Dance

In ancient Egypt Hathor is seen as the supreme Goddess of sexual love, as a Goddess of Heavenly Charm, it is easy to see how the Greeks, linked Hathor with Aphrodite, the Goddess of Love. In love poetry, she is described as 'golden' or 'Lady of Heaven'.

I built a house for the Goddess,
Made of the wood of the sycamore tree.

Under the leaves of the palm tree,
I eat bread in honour of her.

Hathor, Hawk of the Sky,
Rest in the limbs of my tree.

Hathor, House of the Sun,
Live in my house forever.

The Eye Of Re

"There came a time when the people began to drift away from the worship of the God. Re, in vengeance, sent his daughter, Hathor, in the form of a lion, to punish mankind.

After a time, Re decided that mankind had suffered enough and ordered Hathor to return, she, being sated with blood lust refused. The Sun God ordered a vast quantity of beer to be made, coloured with red ochre, which was then poured into the field where Hathor-Sakhmet lay sleeping. On waking, Hathor seeing the fields reddened with what she thought was blood, began to gorge herself, falling into an intoxicated stupor, Re was able to return her.

To mark the occasion, so that mankind would not forget their narrow escape from annihilation, Re ordered a festival to be held each year in Hathor's honour."

This was a very popular religious festival and was celebrated (August 7th) at New Year, at all the shrines dedicated to Hathor, throughout the kingdom. Hathor was worshiped as the "Seven Hathors": Hathor of Thebes, Heliopolis, Aphroditopolis, Sinai, Momemphis, Herakleopolis, and Keset. Her primary shrine was at Denderah, the "Place of Intoxication", she was also worshipped as principal deity at temples in the modern cities of Atfih and Gebelein. At Edfu, she is the wife of Horus, here her name means "Mansion of Horus", signifying her role as sky Goddess and protector of Horus. At Thebes, Hathor takes on the role of Goddess of the Dead.

The Seven Hathors

In the tomb of Nefertari (Dynasty XIX) and in the Book of the Dead, the Goddess Hathor is depicted as seven cows whose role is to determine the destiny of a child at birth. Each of these different aspects of the Goddess as her own name:

i/   Lady of the universe.
ii/   Sky-storm.
iii/   You from the land of silence.
iv/   You from Khemmis.
v/    Red-hair.
vi/   Bright red.
vii/   Your name flourishes through skill.

Several alternative names for the seven Hathors has been found in papyri concerning Mythology, these are:

i   Lady of the House of Jubliation.
ii + iii   Mistress of the West.
iv + v   Mistress of the East.
vi + vii   Ladies of the sacred land.

Hathor's Mirror

Ancient Egyptian mirrors, unlike our modern counterparts, were not constructed from glass and a silver layer, but from a flat oval of polished copper or bronze, with a wooden or bone handle, the handle was often shaped into the form of a Goddess. The metal Copper is still today linked with the Goddess. This same shape can be seen in the Sun Disc symbol that represents Hathor.

Of the nine 'bodies', the Egyptians believed all animals and creatures consisted of, Hathor was associated with Sekhem - the form body, this was the representation of the form of power of a man or woman. It is the vital spark or energy contained within the individual, that can be built up and projected in Magic. Looking into Hathor's Mirror, your own individual power is reflected on one side, while the thoughts or energies of friends/enemies are reflected on the other. Used as a ward of protection, the energies of an attacker is reflected back to themselves, sensing a power from their intended victim equal to the strength that they feel they possess.
