This is my first entry in a while. I have been really busy with school and haven't been posting recently. Today Fastian(another member of moonweb coven which is my coven) and I tried to do a reading using runes. We started out with simple readings, kind of silly ones but then we got into deeper, more serious readings. I think that it was very succesful and that the readings were quite accurate, though I can't be sure for the future readings yet. Rune casting, although maybe not as accurate as scrying or other methods of divination, it is simpler and faster. It is also more general so you can't figure out who you are gonig to marry or what grade you are gonig to get on your algebra test or things like that. The readings have to be more general. Anyway, just felt like posting this to try and get back into the habit of posting. Blessed be!
Here is a link to a site that describes how runecasting works so you can try it for yourself. It is very simple and quick and doesn't require too much practice, a little but I supose everything does. Anyway, good luck.

The Wiccan Rede
Triquetra
This symbol, the triquetra represents the three fold law. It also represents the three stages of a women's life, maiden, mother, and crone. It is a common symbol in Wicca
Altar
This is a pretty standard pagan altar. Usually pagan altars or altars of practicing witches have a few candles, a pentacle, an athame and wand, inense and bowls upon it. Sometimes there are also crystals and other protection symbold, along with herbs and oils, sometimes even crystal balls or tarot decks.
Pentacle
Crystals
Crystals, though most people think they are just pretty rocks used in jewelry, actually contain an energy of their own which can be used for many purposes. They also have properties that many people manipulate to use as health benefits. Crystals are quite powerful and mroe remarkable than most people give them credit for.
Fortune Teller
Yes, there are actually people who sit in dusty old shops, waiting to read people's fortunes. However there are many methods to doing this. Read my post on divination to learn more.
About Me
- Dusk
- My name is Dusk The Strange, and some of my interests include art, writing, poetry, and many other artsy things. I have a love for many gothic things, especially gothic Victorian things. I have a love for the usual zombies, murderers, and mental patients, and I also love things such as anime and MMO's. I love makeup and shopping and other girly things. I also love tea and coffee. I do research of things like astronomy and mythology and random interests in my free time too. If you haven't noticed yet, my interests are all over the place.
Candles play a huge part in witchcraft. Certain colors mean specific things, like a red candle is for romance, a white candle is for protection, and so on. If a spell doesn't call for any candles, you can add candles that correspond to the spell for better success!
Crystal Therapy
This is an image of a woman who is trying out crystal therapy, a true form of therapy to ease one's body and help restore the natural chakras. Many people go to trained professionals who know how each crystal works in alleviating tension and how it affects the body. Witchcraft is mainly dealing with what science cannot identify as legit and making it work.
the Moon in Magick
Now the moon has been a central aspect of magick and pagan traditions for centuries. It has its own power and the cycles of it influence many people's practices. Wicca, witchcraft, magick, paganism, they all revolve around the moon to a certain degree.
Number of visits
Herbs also play a large role in witchcraft. They can be used in all sorts of ways from cooking, potions, additions to spells, etc. As important as they are, that doesn't mean that they aren't dangerous! If you don't know what an herb is, then find out before you intake it in any way, shape, or form! If you mess with the wrong plant, you could die!
