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!

Autumn approaches...

Looking at the good year past
The bright happy summer sunshine
The smiling faces of little ones
Here comes the autumn
Harvest gathered in
A beautiful cornucopia of sweet honey
Happy daze!

Looking at the waves of the ocean
I sink deep
I know how the world can be
At one and in peace
Blessed be

The Autumn turned month by month
Bringing the winds of change
Strong and ever She rolls
Onward upward and away
Flying skyward to the heavens 
And beyond to a world of light
Power and might
Blessed be this night

the Mysteries of Ostara


as the wheel turns once more
life becomes ever sure
Tender steps of Imbolc time
Have led us here to celebrate
To celebrate life in all Her glory
To tell that ever-lasting story
Of life's young blood
Ever growing ever knowing
Of flowers making bold bright songs
Heralding spring is where daffodil belongs

As Ostara's touch upon the world
Brings colours bright
Let's life spring into being
She opens Her heart to the new
she holds tight fast to what she knew
She grows in wisdom each and every day
Each day and night we pray
For the rebirth of the spring
To breathe life into everything
May the Sun shine ever bright
to cast out the darkness of the night
To bring a new day
As the hare looks to the dawn
so life will be reborn
A garland of spring flowers
Like the Lady's mantle
Spreads o'er the earth
to brighten every day
Let the children play
Roll eggs down hills
Paint and eat
chocolate treats are really neat
Eggs in a basket
hold wisdom for sure
Each a dream to become true
hold tight to each and every egg
Nurture each one til it blossoms
Into a blessed dream alive and well
thanks be to the goddess!
Thanks for the Sun
thanks and praises from everyone

Yuletide Blessings

As the seasons turn and so we find ourselves at Yule
Mistletoe is at the ready
Holly berries blood red
Ivy wreaths to bless Our homes
This is where We truly belong
Live Our lives each day long
To celebrate the turn of the solar year
From dark to light
It's ever clear
That a bright dawn will come
To save Us all
The Sun Lord shining
O'er the small
Blessed be the Sun Lord
In the morn
We shall see Him
Come the dawn
Thank you Sun Lord for ever blessing
Our worlds with your Light
Yuletide Blessings

Merlin's magic!


With fire and earth
The Earth's rebirth
Merlin casts His spell
Dragon might
Moonlit night
Fire a'plenty
Filled with Light
A circle of protection
Temple fine
Merlin's might
Cloak of purple
Wizard's Hat on top
His beard that of wisdom
His eyes all a'glow
Many He will know
Circle of power
Creating Light
Empowering Sight


He gazes at the Stars
From Saturn to Mars
His study a place of marvels
Dragon's as friends
Books in a pile
A knowing smile
Incense burning
Growing energy
Light flashes
A window of colour
Wonderful sight
Creating might
Knotwork to save Us
Fortunate beings
Great glory
A forever lasting story!
Blessed be

Lady of the Lake

Lady of the Lake



Gracious lady of the sword
Innocence might
Lady of the day
Lady by night
So shines the light!
Bearing gifts of an awakening soul
Dawn breaks and helps us to feel whole
Giving and receiving
May the Earth's spirit be strong
May the day be long
Hail to the Lady of the Lake
Be gone with you!
As I rise from deepest depths
My heart flows to a new rythmn
Sword aloft
Kindly souls 
Grace of the Lord
Happiness everlasting
Forgiving soul that I am
Might of an angel
Wonders alight
Saintly tales of woe
What does this show?
May We all find our true hearts for life
Respect for all
Honour well spoken
Politeness
Family in Our hearts
Friends to celebrate with
Beware of foe
Strive for peace
Keep all nice
Dragons alive!
