I have but one simple question, and that being, where would be a good place to find tools for the craft, specifically scrying mirrors, or other tools that others have found quite helpful in their practices.

You spelled "magical" wrong.

Actually, if you knew anything of witchcraft and those that practice it, you would know I hadn't spelled it wrong. the "k" that was placed in the word, differentiates it from what stage magicians do. And if you really want to get into a discussion on it, feel free to e-mail me, and not bring this on here, where all I am doing is asking a question to others that deals with the workings of magick.

One thing you will notice about DF is that it is a very rare thread that actually accomplishes its mission objective

Anyways I am with thefr0g on this. Irregardless magic is magic whether it is stage magic or whodovoodoo. Adding the "K" only makes it a punching bag.

Try e-bay. Lots of folks selling wierd stuff there.

or try here--

Just around the corner from my work. But the op-shop next door is much better.

Dyshade had my back! What a day this is!

I don't even know why I'm bothering to even reply to your comment Dyshade, but when it comes to practitioners of witchcraft, we add the "k" to the word magic to separate the differences of the two types. If you don't believe me, feel free to look it up, ask any Witch, Pagan, Wiccan, Druid, Celtic, they will tell you the same. I don't pull things like that out of my ass on a whim or to "sound" cool. Like I told thefr0g, if you have a problem with it, e-mail it to me, don't be an ass and put it on here.

Once again let me reiterate, about 60 or so years ago some guy thought it would be cool to start a new religion, he added a K to magic so it would sound cool and started witchcraft. I am not stupid, I know all about happy witchcraft.... it is a fairly brand new kid on the block when it comes to religions.

No one is going to e-mail you. We discuss stuff here. Which is why it is called Discussion Forums.

I did leave you a pretty cool link if I say so myself. And you did not even leave a word of thanks. That bad karma will come back at you triplefold

The only difference between the magic of wiccans and the magic of stage performers is that the magic of stage performers actually appears to accomplish something (an illusion), while the other type is pretty much all bullshit.

the druccan's are a very credibil source, im sure dy is very sorry for insulting your majickal ways and trembles in fear as i do. i say a prayer to the morning star every night just so such a thing doesnt befall me and my venture towards mecca to retake the holy lands under the mighty flag of thor.

stop listening to death metal and get a job.

I am a celtic and I spell it magik. And to answer your question, most of the best ritual items can be found in nature, such as the black snake, or the blood, hair, or bones of a creature. Items made from cherrywood are the most effective in rite and no other wood should be considered. Celtic sea salt is a must, and i'll tell you this. What i've learned about rituals is this, the more time and effort you expend, the greater the results. The gods will reward our expenditures appropriately.

You're a Celtic? not a Celt?

I have a magikal tool.

**all hail manifestos magikal tool!!**

that thing got a hemi?

No actually I'm just some random guy and I made all that up to prove a point, that this guy is an idiot and he assumes his way of spelling it is the only way to properly spell the word magic. I bet you look in a dictionary under magick and it says SEE MAGIC YOU TARD.

if they are such mighty gods, why do they need such elaborate rituals, time consuming crafting with a lot of thought, planning and words in order to care, grant or hear what their follower is asking for?

would they really care if you're using cherry wood or oak, where exactly does celtic sea salt come from, what sort of ritual are you doing that needs, blood, hair and bones of a dead creature?

say what you will about christianity, it's sure less complicated...all i need is a book and prayer to keep my God happy, i've always loved to read exciting stories and thinking about their potential lesson naturally follows, finish with an amen and i've fufilled my contractual obligations of worship.

I cant tell if you're being sarcastic or if you really converted. I would think sarcasm, but the weak minded are easily swayed...

Well actually speaking of that book, check out these two books in the back: Exodus, and Leviticus, particularly Leviticus; they detail a rite that went far beyond the norse blood sacrifice or even satanic animal sacrifice, the God of the hebrews made them walk through the desert, and their rite required gold, and various exotic incense, and that's only the icing, I remember reading of at least 200 other things that were required and must be executed perfectly, with their life dangling on the line. Your God died on a cross, he made a sacrifice so you wouldn't have to ;]

that's what makes the bible stories so entertaining, the violence, trials, tribulations and the shifting from a God of war and destruction to one of love and forgiveness...yet, through it all humanity comes out better off and stronger, no longer slaves of egypt but generations of tribes under Israel.

and i'm not being sarcastic frog and there was nothing easy about swaying me, it took three very clever men one with an amazing amount of knowledge based in messianic jewish teachings to make me even consider it could be a world as wonderful as that i found in the occult...believing is easy and something i always have done, this is the first challenge i've face in my beliefs, understanding something that i've hated for so long, and embracing it...you may call it weak minded, but at least i have the mind to challenge and question my own beliefs, respecting other for theirs, willing to consider the possibilty i'm wrong, and flexible enough to change, when it's been proven i'm wrong.

if you prove to me God does not exist...than perhaps i'll change my mind, how can i argue with unquestionable proof...but until then i'm going by what i feel is best for my life and spirituality, having made the choice aware of other possibilities. what validates your belief that there's nothing out there, more so than those who believe there is?
