In order for a shadow to exist, there must be light, and vice versa. The magickal workings shared in these pages are a mixture of both, because as in all things, there needs to be balance. There are no real directions in this book... These pages contain 350 different spells, rituals, prayers, recipes, et cetera. These are in no particular order, as a true book of lights and shadows has no particular order to it. All the spells in this book have been used with positive results, as well as the rituals and recipes. I have made sure that all the spells have been tested, thanks to the assistance of my wonderful students and covens All of the spells and rituals have been written due to a need for them, from many different witches in many different Spiritual communities. I have tried to include a spell for any need that arises. Prayer is the oldest known communication between man and Divinity. It is so important to pray and give thanks to our Divine. Prayer is what connects us daily with our deities, which raises our personal vibrations and energy levels, making us stronger Spiritually and magickally. The prayers in this book are basic, and can be easily personalized. Chanting is a very powerful action. Many chants are used to gain and release energies, to give thanks to Deities, and to recognize a magickal moment. I chant whenever I am inspired to do so. It just comes from my heart. May it be feeling the breeze through my hAir to raising energies in a circle, I chant. In this book, you will find chants inspired by everything under the Sun... Literally This book also contains some inner workings... Meditations, inner journeys, and visualizations. These exercises expand the mind and help with the continuing Spiritual growth and evolvement we are experiencing throughout our life constantly. Visualizations aid us in training and working our minds and thoughts. Inner journeys connect us with Spirit guides and totem animal Spirits that give us messages and teach us lessons. Meditation is the key to living a Spiritually magickal and balanced life. It connects us with ourselves on all levels and with Divinity. That is where all growth takes place. Remember, the magick comes from the witch, not the spell. The witch's emotion, energy, intent, and actions cause the magick to work. Spells are only an aid used for energy direction. Always be confident and strong when magick is being used, so you will project the proper energy needed to obtain positive results.
