The traditional associations of casting circles are pretty simple: call the spirits of the elements at each of the cardinal directions, invoke whatever deity or deities with whom you work, “brush” or push the negative forces out from within the circle to without it, and then seal it with your own magick and Will. 

The problem is, though, that this was created by people living in the United Kingdom, and as such it was created with the UK’s cardinal directions in mind. These are not always appropriate for where you live, though! Traditionally, you would invoke

Earth in the East
Fire in the South
Water in the West
Air in the North

But here in Australia that makes no sense. In Britain, the further south (towards the equator) you move, the hotter it gets… but in Australia you move NORTH to approach the equator. Fire spirits would be found more towards the North of Australia where the heat is greater and the days are more equal.

In Britain, with the Arctic to the North, Air is placed in the far North as Air spirits love the cold and winds of tundra plains. However, being a Southern hemisphere country, Australia’s cold region is the Antarctic to the South, and so it makes more sense to listen to the Air spirits there, where you’ll actually find them. 

Here on the East Coast of Australia the beautiful Great Dividing Range - a vast mountain range that stretches for thousands of miles and divides our beautiful nation in twain - and the bulk of the Australian continent stretch out towards the West. Meanwhile, to our East, the south Pacific ocean flows with vast Ocean spirits that bring cyclones and thunderstorms to our fair continent. So it makes sense to not place Earth in the East like in the UK (where Europe is all eastwards) but instead in the West, and likewise place Water in the East where the largest ocean on Earth sits, placidly, waiting to devour us all.

But, of course, this is not the same for all! Japan might choose to have the Air of Hokkaido and the Arctic in the North, equatorial Fire in the South, Pacific Water in the East, and Asian Earth in the West; Kenya might have Fire in the East to represent the great Sahara Desert, Water in the West, Earth in the North and Air in the South. The world s full of diversity, and adhering rigidly to the rules of a bunch of 1920s British Wiccans who’d barely even left England in their entire lives and had never seen a non-white person probably isn’t the best idea in our modern world of inexpensive plane tickets and cultural diversity. 

Live on, my bright Wiccans and Witches of the wider world, and let the Spirits of your own lands guide you!

On addition of my Palmistry post…

One thing that I didn’t mention in that post was what hand you are supposed to read.

Palmistry is a form of divination and for that matter there isn’t a ‘right’ way to do it. There are so many ways. But I’m going to tell you the one i preffer. If you have another technique, feel free to put it on the comment section so everyone can learn and grow in this path.

I like to read the hands in this way: considering your non dominant hand for the things that you got, and may your dominant hand be what you do with what you have.

Hope this clarifies some of the questions that some of you had and I’m always happy to help you on your path.

Clairvoyance

Clairvoyance is “clear seeing” or being able to see the unseen. The ability to see objects, symbols, events, situation and other things which are not perceived by our every day senses, which enables us to see beyond the visible.

Some ways to tune into them with:

• Daily meditation.
• Beliefs system.
• Essential oils.
• Crystals.

Ways to open your clairvoyance

1. In your mind’s eye imagine a rose out in front of you, just outside your aura, about an arm’s reach away. Make it any colour you like.
2. Ground the rose to the center of the earth by visualising the roots of it travel and affix firmly to the center of the earth. Try not to thing where is the center of the earth, your higher self knows.
3. Take a moment to see the details of the rose. What colour did you make it? There are leaves? Thorns? Noticr the texture.
4. Out loud ask the question you want an answer to. Let the rose absorb the energy of your question. If the answer is truth or yes, the rose will flourish or get bigger and brighter. If the rose withers or turns a darker colour the answer is a no or no truth.
5. This can be used any time you need assistance in a decision, during a conversation or any situation you need intuitive guidance.

Tasseography

•Tea leaf reading•

You might be wondering where this unusual form of divination came from, so here’s a short history on tasseography. Shortly after tea was introduced to Europe, tea leaf reading, as it’s now recognized, was born. Similar divination tools had been used with an assortment of other materials. The art of tea leaf reading spread through Europe, and is now practiced throughout the world.

Doing a tea leaf reading involves you indulging in a delicious cup of tea and putting your sharp intuitive skills to work. After you enjoy your warm cup of loose leaf tea, you’ll leave the loose tea leaves at the bottom, where some of these leaves will form symbols, each having their own meaning. That’s where your keen intuitive abilities come in! Anyone can see a triangle at the bottom of a teacup, but your job is to intuit what it means for you or the person you’re reading for.

WHAT YOU NEED FOR A TEA LEAF READING

• Tea cup with a wide brim that’s light enough to easily see your tea leaves.
• Saucer
• Loose leaf green or black tea, preferably organic.
• Napkins
• Pen and paper
• Water

HOW TO PERFORM A TEA LEAF READING

1. BREW YOUR TEA

Gather all of your materials. Boil your water. Place about a teaspoon of loose tea in your cup. Pour your water in and steep tea to your preference.

For the next 3 steps, if you’re doing a reading for someone else, have them do the following steps.

2. SIP & SWIRL

Before you take your first sip, gently swirl tea counter clockwise three times. Sip and enjoy your tea, but don’t drink it all! When there’s about 1 tablespoon of tea left in your cup, swirl it again 3 times counter clockwise and think about or speak your query aloud.

3. CREATE YOUR TEA READING CANVAS

Turn your cup upside down onto your saucer to remove the remaining water, allow it a minute or so to drain, then turn it back up right.

4. LOOK FOR SYMBOLS

Look over your loose leaf tea pieces and see if any symbols or shapes jump out to you immediately. Don’t fret if you don’t see anything immediately, similar to scrying with a crystal ball, it can take some time for imagery to form for you. Try looking at the inside of the cup from different directions to see shapes. Keep in mind the images formed are formed from tea leaves, so you will really need to use your imagination.

5. RECORD & DECIPHER YOUR FINDINGS

If you do start to see some shapes, begin writing them down on your piece of paper so you can decipher them later, note where in the cup they are too. Now you’re ready to decipher your findings! Here’s a guide for the most common symbols found during tea leaf readings:

6. UNDERSTAND THE TIMELINE

Where your tea leaves are situated in your cup relate to when they will happen. This is why some of the tea leaf reading cups you find have circles inside of them. Timing is broken into thirds as follows:

Bottom third: farthest away from happening, think 3-5 years out.

Top third: will be happening in the near future, think within the next few weeks.

Middle third: will happen in about a year from now.

7. FORM YOUR READING

Like most divination tools, a honed intuition is key for success, so be sure to lean on any gut instincts as you form the story for your reading. Once you understand the meaning behind the symbols it’s time to put all of the information into a story that makes sense for you or the person you’re doing a reading for.

Scrying

The art of mirror gazing (scrying) is called, a term that refers to the use of reflective surfaces.

Scrying is the art of obtaining clairvoyant visions. Is used to connect with spirit and ‘see’ beyond the physical realm and into the minde eye, where the subconscious knowledge sits without ego or judgements for clarity and guidance.

Common methods use one of the four elements as a scrying medium. It’s best to choose the element suited to the type of visions you are hoping to get from the scrying.

As a portal into other realms, it can also be used to aid astral travel, and during ritual to communicate with your deity.

Scrying can be practised at any time, but best results are often gained in the quiet of night after the hustle and bustle of the day’s activities. It is not necessary to construct a fully consecrated circle for scrying: it is enough to simply create your sacred space by visualizing a circle of white light surrounding and purifying the appointed working area.

In a quiet darkened room, place your object of choice on a table or altar. Light a candle, one on each side of the object, but in such a position they don’t reflect on the mirror’s surface, and if you wish, burn an appropriate blend of incense to stimulate the psychic senses. Switch off all other light sources except for the two candles, and seat yourself comfortably in front of the object.

Take a few minutes to relax while you tune into the atmosphere created. When ready to start, first ground and centre yourself, then call your guides or guardians ( or the universe) to protect the work from unwanted or misleading influences.

To begin, when looking at the object try not to just stare at it, but look through its surface as if gazing into a dark and endless tunnel. After awhile, images and colours will begin to take form, they may even appear and take shape outside the mirror surrounding it on all sides.

When you first start scrying be patient, keeping your first sessions to about 10 to 30 minutes, and gradually work it up to hour-long sessions as you learn.

The art of scrying is interpreting what you see in the images and colours as they take form. This in a way it is a little like dream interpretation, and initially you may wish to consult one of the many books on the subject to help define the images you see.

At the end of the day however, the real interpretation will be what those images mean to you personally.

After you have completed your scrying session, re-ground yourself and close your sacred space.

You may wish to keep a journal and note down any visions you received during your session and later compare them with a list of dream interpretations. The more you practice, the more familiar the images and their meanings will become, but you may need to meditate on them for awhile to reveal any hidden meanings.

In conclusion, there are many different ways and methods of scrying in addition to the one above, so it pays to experiment and use what works best for you. Whatever tool or method you use, be it your own personalized mirror, a crystal ball, or simply a dark bowl of water; it can with time and patience become a font of wisdom and knowledge.

Believe in your abilities and may you find what you seek.
