people and when not to. I do not want someone to attempt to convince me their
beliefs are the best, and I do not discuss my beliefs with others unless they ask
me and show an interest.
In all cases, be discreet about such sensitive subjects. If you live in a home in
which the idea of spinning a spell is looked down upon, show discernment and
respect for others. Rise above the situation with class, and show others you are
not as judgmental as they may be about you.
If you should start to feel uneasy about spell making, it is not worth
sacrificing your peace of mind, and I would recommend stopping it immediately.
If you love the idea, the rituals, and the results, continue doing it. Be true to
yourself as long as you never hurt or intentionally cause anyone harm. If these
spells work well for you, you may want to share them with others of like mind.
The other kind of challenge you may need to overcome when using magick is
the physical aspect of making things work. If you are in a very small space and
think you cannot cast a circle because a dresser or a bed is in the way, it is not a
problem. Cast the formation right over any obstacles. Naturally, you must use
the visualization technique of casting a formation as opposed to using material
items such as salt. In some areas you may not be able to use candles or other
items, but work around it and you will be surprised by what you can achieve.
The weather is always a factor when casting spells outside. One question was
addressed to me during a lecture I gave in Kansas City. Can a spell be spun
outside in the rain?
My answer? Why not, if there is no lightning about? If you want to sit outside
with a gentle rain falling, you may regard it as the element of water entering into
your spell with a little extra force. Some may see rain as purification or a
cleansing.
For me, to be rained on as I sit in a chair or on the ground trying to
concentrate is not conducive to tranquility, and I would rather go inside or
reschedule the entire event. This is a personal preference. The rule of thumb you
may want to remember is, if something is a distraction and takes away from your
concentration, you are putting undo stress on yourself. So why do it?
Regarding pets: Not everyone has a separate room to put a pet into when
doing a ritual. You may not feel it is right to lock your pet up while performing
these actions. Sometimes the animal will protest with scratching or barking or
whatever your pet does when upset. If you have a pet that is quiet and will sit
calmly and you feel you want this peaceful creature to be a part of your ritual,
