Secret Scripts

Sorry it has been a while since I have posted on this blog and I am trying to get back into the habit of posting regularly. Anyway, lately I have been doing a lot of research and a bit less actual practice, but that doesn't mean I haven't been doing it. I have been growing in my knowledge, experience and power and therefore have been delving into more powerful and complicated magick. I have also been doing research on more dangerous magick. I am NOT talking black magick, I would never use black magick, I am just saying that as we get into more complicated and powerful practices they start to become more dangerous. I have actually been reading up on the art of conjuring spirits and it is very complicated and highly dangerous and not advisable to anyone who has not had intense study and preparation of the topic. I myself am not ready to even try such a feat and have no desire to at the moment, considering the dangers it can impose. When you are conjuring any kind of spirit, there is no guarantee that it will be a good spirit, you might end up conjuring a demon or so on. Also, these beings are much more powerful than us and could easily possess us which is why we use nothing short of the most powerful of protection rituals before attempting any kind of contact. Meddling in these powerful acts could get you killed, or worse!

Sorry to venture off track about conjuring spirits and I'm not trying to mislead you by saying that it is black magick, because it isn't as long as you are doing it on non harmful intentions. Still, black magick or not, it is dangerous and I highly advise against it unless you are truly prepared. Also, I am not going to post this kind of info in case anyone tries it under bad intentions or anything like that.

The reason I made this post is because as we stop fooling around with silly spells to get us a good grade on an assignment or change our eye color or something like that and turn towards more powerful magick, people will also start to worry and judge us more. The salem witch trials are over and happened long ago, but people are still being murdered for the use of witchcraft. It is a highly feared practice and many people think it is evil and some practitioners will end up dead because of this. People aren't going to give you the chance to explain your practices and will immediately judge or act. I would advise anyone to not go out of their way to mark themselves as a witch or a practitioner of witchcraft. If you have parents or roommates who disapprove of the practice and you keep a book of shadows, I would advise you to either hide it well or use a different script to write it in so that it cannot be read by others as easily. You can google magick scripts or even make up your own or something like that. But I just want to warn you because witches are still discriminated against and don't go throwing your beliefs out there because you might end up dead. That is all for now.

The Magick Circle

The magick circle is debatably the most important part of witchcraft. Without the magick circle then your magick is not as focused, the witch is not protected, and your success isn't as probable. Now, there are several ways to cast the magick circle ranging from a plain, simple circle to a complex multiple layered circle with sigils, invocations, and many other aspects. For a beginner it is common sense to start off with a simple circle as they should be starting with simple magick. If you have never cast a circle before or done any kind of spell, trying to do a more complicated spell or ritual is probably not going to work and could be dangerous.
The magick circle can be drawn with a piece of chalk, a string, traced in sand or dirt, or simply imagined(often though you might accidentally step outside the boundaries though). Another method that many experts use is drawing or painting the circle on a piece of wood, fabric, or paper of some kind. I myself just recently found out about this method and finished one myself yesterday. The thing with this is that it saves time from having to draw the circle itself and writing out all of the sigils and words that you may use when casting the circle. If you are going to do this then you will want to make it so that it isn't limited to only a few kinds of rituals, it should be more general so that you can use it in almost all of your rituals because they are large and take time, patience, and skill to make.
Here are some pictures oh some magick circles that might give you an idea. The first will be mine and the rest will be some more famous circles in history.
