Merry Meet and Welcome!

Merry Meet Again! This blog is called Practical Magic and my aim is to teach spellwork for the beginner witch/wizard! I began my Wiccan path about 20 years ago and have grown ever since in power and strength as a witchy woman! I practice magic as a Solitary Green Witch and work with the powers within herbs, incenses and the essence of Colour in magic. Candle magic is my forte!!

I have a great interest in Animal Totems and my personal totems are the Dog, Gorilla, Raven and Lion. I saw my totem pole in a sacred dream once and have worked with these Power animals ever since. To me, Dog symbolises Loyalty, Gorilla - Benevolence, Raven - Protection and Lion - Strength. There are much more to these Power Animals and I will write a post describing working with the spirit of Totems.

I come from Britain where Animal have been held sacred by the Celts & Druids always alike Native America and Shamans of the Celts would work with their Power Animals as guides. I have a Druid Animal Oracle Deck and if you would like a reading, please get in touch at angelstaroracle@live.co.uk I enjoy reading the cards and this service is FREE!!!

I create crystal healing jewellery under the name of Ravenmoon Designs and my website www.ravenmoondesigns.co.uk has information pages on crystal affinities and astrology.

I hope you find the practice of Wicca as enthralling as I do and what ever your personal path, may you gain wisdom from these pages. Blessings!

A Lammas Day in the Sunshine!


As the summer draws to a close
The Autumnal heat is strong
The first day of harvest bears it's fruit
It is here we belong
Scythes fly and thresh the corn
People busy around
Life begins with the autumn!

The games begin for Lughnasad
Crafts and skills are made
Welcome to the menfolk, young and old
To meet the challenge of strength
How far and wide Lugh's skills are shown
Teacher to one and all
Guides the skills of the younger ones
Runs and rides to gold


The Green Lady is in being now
Bringing joy and abundance
Harvest time is good for all
Blessings amongst us
Leaves are beginning to turn red and gold
Autumntime approaches
The days are growing ever shorter
Nights are drawing in
The ripening time is here!
A new essence to the warmth of the world
The heat is dry and pleasant
Warmth of the soul resides in us
Sharing, caring, loving
Picnics for families with children who play
In golden hay and grass
Loving the blessing of a new world


The Hedge Druid gathers the ears of corn 
From first harvest cut
To make the Corn Dolly fine
To bring fertility back
Kept for months of wintertime to bury again at Imbolc
As we plant again next year
We remember yesteryear's harvest
With thanks and mercy on One and All
Happiness approaches
Welcome, Welcome to the Lammastime
Harvesting our goodies
A year's long toil
Is blessed with reward
Thanks to One and all
Blessings from the Earth Mother
Of food and shelter tall


Blessed be the Lammas!
For all to celebrate
Mother Goddess in all Her glory
Bountiful and fair
Thanks be to mothers everywhere
Sharing their kindness and generosity
Love to all abide
With joy we sing of life's true mercy
For within Mother this presides

Grainne the little sunny One 
Dances in the Light
Sunshine lights Her path
Telling of Her might
With thanks for summer's loving blessing
Of shared union divine
Innocence is ever there
For those who honour woman


With blessings of the swan's a swimming
With blessings of the Unicorn
The Lammas Angel shines on high
With golden locks so fine
Her heart an ever-knowing presence
Her eyees a pure delight
With gracious gifts of innocence and might
Blessed Be!
