ABC of Paganism: W is for Words

1/8/2019

I love words. I am an author; I write and what I write is words. I love manipulating words and dissecting them. I use them to paint pictures in my mind and hopefully in the imaginations of other people who read my words. I like to write more than speak, but I enjoy speaking and listening to others as they express their ideas through words. I enjoy reading more than watching because it seems to me that what I imagine is more appealing to me than what other people create using the words of the author.

It is because I am so enamored with words that I know they hold power. All words possess a power that is uniquely their own,

Wants and Needs

I was watching a video on YouTube yesterday and the individual was discussing why spells fail. The majority of the video I agreed with the ideas that this person was sharing until the point where needs and wants were discussed. I hear this individual’s point of view often when discussing spell crafting and casting with others and it seems to me that my point of view is not shared by many if at all. Now, I’ve written about this back in 2013 when discussing The Law of Attraction (you can find the original blog post here), but I believe it is a topic that can be addressed continuously because it is an important aspect of spell casting and manifestation.

As always I am going to suggest that we look at the definition of both words: need and want. I do this so that you can understand what I mean when I

Words hold an energetic vibration and power uniquely their own. We, as witches, understand the power of our words and use their power to shift and manipulate our reality through our spell casting. It is because we know and recognize that everything, absolutely everything that exists on this physical plane once began as a mere thought. That thought, whether it was our own or someone else’s, was birthed through the element of Air on the Astral Plane and was manipulated by the element of Fire through our Will and fueled by Water through our emotions to become manifested on the Earth through physical words, whether written, spoken, or enacted. Each word is a physical manifestation of a vibration that already existed on the non-physical realm and resonates with that particular energy that if we align with will allow us to harness its power within our magickal practice and life. This is why many Witches and other magickal practitioners use correspondences, but you, as a Witch knew that already, right?

Unfortunately for the modern Witch, there are some words ... even combinations of

Words and Labels Hold Power

I've been contemplating the idea of words this morning. I've seen many in the pagan community state that they don't like to label themselves because they find that a label is limiting and they don't want to box themselves in by identifying with a label so they say they are 'spiritual'. More than once I've heard, "I am more than a label" not only from pagans but people in general within our society.

And I agree, we are, each of us, more than a single label.

However, I would like to propose that words and labels hold a power uniquely their own, which is why there are so many words ... even
