Hi Sandra! I just purchased your five day course "The Ultimate Guide...". I have read a number of books here recently, but really felt it would be beneficial to have something with some actual instruction and structure. I think this should do nicely, and perhaps be the launching pad for your year long course. Being a 57 year old grandpa, I certainly don't fit the modern picture of the newbie female teen witch, but Wicca has been an interest to me for many years, as I have stated in the comments section of some of your other videos. So, I have my altar set up, and had my first esbat session during last night's full moon. I look forward to learning much from your vast experience in the The Craft, and wish you Blessed Be!
@@MysteryWitchSchool Thanks for the kind response, Sandra. Yes, plenty of mature witches, I'm sure, but probably not too many starting out at my age. Better late then never, right? Besides, this stuff takes multiple lifetimes to get right, IMHO. So, here I am, the kindergartner with gray in his hair and beard! LOL
Thank you for this! I’ve been looking into Wicca and witchcraft for nearly a year now, but I want to fall more into daily practices to connect with the Wiccan religion more so that I can strengthen my magickal energy. I found this video very helpful - it is //just// simple enough so that beginners can get it and more educated people totally get what you mean. Nothing is too dumbed down! Thank you so much for this 💐
This is very intriguing. I appreciate the brief, concise explanation here. Coming from a Tibetan Buddhist background, with its various meditations and myriad deity practices, there is actually a lot of overlay. There is generally a reverence for nature and being grounded with the Earth as well. Loved your description of the meditation practice. Anapanasati, or breath meditation (mindfulness of breathing), is essentially what the Buddha taught to his first disciples. Having done this extensively, you will reach a point where you begin to feel extremely light, thoughts will occur less frequently and your sense of self begins to dissolve. I never realized that meditation was an integral part of Wiccan practice. Thank you!
I meditate every now and again, but I want to feel like a real wiccan. Even though I meditate I feel like I'm doing it wrong which makes me feel like an outsider who does more study than practice.
Start small - go outside everyday and feel the air around you, the fire of the sun and if possible the earth beneath your feet. Quiet your mind for at least 1 minute and listen and feel for the connection. This is the root of Wicca.
This is really good advice. Doing this in the morning is perfect for me but I work nites so it isn't the start of my day so to say but the end. Will it benefit me the same? Can't do it before the nightshift.
ya know i’ve watched your vids for a while now and i can truly say that your right about what happens through the astral visually from our minds eye, because i’ve done this my whole life but really didn’t know why or what it was but after i’ve learned of what this truly was it’s made me a stronger spiritual being since i found you and your explanations , you’ve opened me up to my old ways of thinking that i always thought was wrong when it was happening. It’s something that you can’t stop, it just comes and goes and most times manifests but in awkward ways. Just wanna say thank-you in helping me understand my journey.
Split my deck of tarot and the hierophant came out lol. I am new to your content but i seem to have been doing this sort of thing subconsciously for years.
You actually gave me amazing tips for my morning routine. Could you make a video about what to do in the night before going to sleep? Same thing? What about if you live is a noisy house. Is it good to meditate with earphones and some meditation music?
Hello, I am new to your channel and find it very informative. Do you have a book of spells, rhythms, or incantations? Can you recommend one that I can purchase. I am terrible at writing and find it difficult to do my own. Thanks
Mornings are best. After your wake up. I do mine after breakfast. Some people like to do it at night. It really depends on when you have time and your daily life commitments.
@@MysteryWitchSchool I should probably know this by now, but thought I'd ask anyway for my own clarify; is this a protection spell/prayer? And can this also serve as a form of shielding oneself from unwanted psychic attack? Thanks. 💜
