Risteard in Boston MA

__________ Dear Delriece... Merry Meet. I recently took a walk along the shore of a pond where I grew up and found a Canadian goose feather. I then found another and kept on finding more as I walked. The total came to 13 feathers. Is there a message in this? Thank you & Bright Blessings, Risteard in Boston MA __________ Dear Risteard,       The best way to divine an omen is to meditate upon what the Goose and the number 13 means to you. But as an aid I can tell you that the goose totem can mean: Imagination, quests, spiritual journey, understanding through community, assisting others through illness and happiness. The number 13 can also represent community and family. Light! Delriece __________ 5/9/02 Dear Delriece... Also it seems to me that I would fit under water energy. Is it possible to obtain that energy use it for psychic abilities and how would you go about doing so? Wade in KY __________ Dear Wade, Ideally, you should seek a balance between all the different types of energy. So focusing on water energy can be fun, but it may not be as useful for growth. If you're looking for psychic water energy activities though, you could learn scrying. Light! Delriece __________ 5/9/02 Dear Delriece... I have read most of the questions that people have sent about their burdons. But I have plenty on my own, but one troubles me greatly. Everytime I have read these questions that seek answers I find the answers to be unrealistic to the seeker's needs. Such as go to a therapist or harm will come back three times as worse. I wish to believe that magick can actually be done. But the sources I recieve from multiple sites has put me in terrible feelings of lies and wrong-doings. I have never seen any magick done, or never even felt any energy before. Yes, I wish to learn some of the cool magick, but everyone replies, "You need to meditate and practice till you feel like your ready to do your magick." Also you need to create your own spells. And not to do harm to others. Permissions also seem to clarify that it doesn't seem real. Please help.......... Wade in KY __________ Dear Wade, My answers may seem unrealistic to those who seek quick solutions. The truth is that you can't just snap your fingers and make things happen. Magick is a dicipline that takes real effort and has real consequences. Though it may seem more practical to a beginner for me to simply hand out a "recipe" for a spell, this would not be helpful in the long run. A written spell is like sheet music. Even if I gave you one, you would most likely not be able to read the sheet music correctly or even play the instrument! Even an experienced Witch would need skill and practice to get the feeling of the music as it would be intended. That is why it helps you learn to write your own. I'm not sure what you mean by "permissions". It is true that one should strive to harm none with magick. Rules don't make anything less rule. Tripping and falling only makes gravity all the more apparent at times! Learn about Karma and realize why the rules are the way they are. I can understand why you would be suspicious of blindly following any rule. Light! Delriece __________ Back
