In this episode Two Dozy Broads discuss what constitutes black magic with a couple of truly odd examples.
Hello, and happy either fall or spring, depending on which side of the equator you're on. Here in the Midwest United States, summer is rapidly winding down. Let's hope so. The leaves will soon start to change color with the cooler weather and shorter days, although they really haven't around here yet.
SPEAKER_00They haven't yet.
SPEAKER_01No, the dawn is producing us as frantically as ever. He was trying to get it keep us on track before we even started today. Gary is watching us with a weather eye. Blaze is admiring herself, beautiful as ever. And also, word has it, Hugo has been cited.
SPEAKER_00Stranger things have been known to him. That's right. I am Linda Strochane of the Mercury Academy.
SPEAKER_01And I am Sandy from Gemological Esoterica.
SPEAKER_00And we are two dozy broths. Well, before we go any further, we would like to congratulate Deb, who won the Tumblestone Pax in last month. Secret Word Drawing. Way to go, Deb. And who knew how many different ways Autocorrect could screw up the word mandala?
SPEAKER_01I am not kidding you. When she texted me, it was like this, and then it was, it was, I don't even remember all of them, but I finally just said, that's fine. Spelling doesn't count in this particular one because Autocorrect obviously doesn't know what's going on.
SPEAKER_00It's creative writing.
SPEAKER_01It is creative writing. So this month we are going to discuss magic, both good and bad. And I believe you have something to say about that.
SPEAKER_00I always have something to say, whether I know what I'm talking about or not. There we go. Never stop me before. Well, I'm going to mention briefly something about ceremonial magic and what it is. And this carries over into things that you do with the Wiccan traditions or just little old rituals in your backyard where you're not doing anything really official. But it is a combination of words and frequently objects, stones, herbs, writing on paper, candles, that sort of thing. Beer, beer, well, beer is always important, or mead, whereby energies are activated by thoughts to achieve a certain result. Now, good results, strengthening your energy to prevail over illness, improving your ability to work at your highest level. Even if you're doing good things, it's dicey to involve yourself and your energies with any of this if you don't know what you're doing. It's really scary to get involved with what other people need because you don't know their true will. And if you don't know that, then you're crossing into at least the gray or the polka dot side. Assuming is not good in this case. Never assume. So we're best off improving our own energies so we grow at our own highest harmonic. And to do that, there's nothing better than a constant affirmation or a meditation or something along that line. If you are going to do this, and some people are just hell bent on the doing, yes, yes. Be specific with what you ask for. And if you're not good at doing this, even if you've got a good heart and a good aim in mind, you can still get into trouble with only good intentions in your heart. The road to hell is paved with good intentions. Okay. Interfering with someone else's will, deciding that what you think they need trumps what they think they need is black magic. There's no way to cut it. Oh, but I I only want the best for them. Well, you want your best for them. What is their best? You never ask that. And so that doing that is a serious no-no. Now, the world of ceremonial magic, remember this. The world of ceremonial magic is right next door to the land of unintended consequences. And you're better off steering clear. You can go out and do a little thank you for the autumn and all of this, and give beer, as you say. Give beer. Give beer, give me.
SPEAKER_01But don't, but but not with codicles and things attached. It's thank you, thank you, I ask nothing in return.
SPEAKER_00And then you you close it off, close off the energies, and go your merry way. And the best way to close off the energies is to extend your arms in front of you and bring them like you're hugging yourself. And that closes off that uh that energy. Otherwise, you can run around tripping and do it for heaven only knows how long.
SPEAKER_01So the whole reason behind what Linda just said is I would like to give an example of someone I know and how they actually performed black magic with the best of intention. And it took, after I heard this person speak, it took me a few days to realize it it didn't sit right. But it took a few days in talking to you to figure out, no, this no, this just isn't right. So here's the deal. Somebody that I know, and they had several pet dogs, kind of poodle-poodly mixes, that type of thing. And through her carelessness, and it was her carelessness, several of the dogs died. And I'm not going to say how, and I'm we're not going into recrimination. It was a tragic thing and it was preventable. So this person was grief-stricken, and I mean grief-stricken. And guilt-stricken. And guilt-stricken, that she had inadvertently caused the death of her beloved babies. And every time she talked about them, they were her children. They were her babies, her children, her children. And after many weeks of grief and guilt, she decided to breed one of the remaining dogs that had not been fixed with the specific intention of bringing the deceased animals out of the afterlife and putting them in the new bodies of this dog that she was breeding.
SPEAKER_00Holy Hannah.
SPEAKER_01So that they could be with her again in the here and now.
SPEAKER_00That's not good selfishness.
SPEAKER_01No. She wished fervently and prayed and did ritual that the souls of her babies, her children, would be reborn into the new puppies so that she could be with her children again as if nothing had happened and they could spend the rest of their lives blissfully together. Now, you just went into some stuff, but why don't you tell, why don't you tell people why this just isn't a good thing to do?
SPEAKER_00This is wrong in so many ways. First of all, you don't okay, one thing is you don't you don't want to mess with the afterlife. No. This is like this person going and and sna okay, these puppies had moved along, had found whatever reincarnation and all this, and they were moving in whatever their path was. That's right. And she wanted to come in and snatch them out of that. Yes. And say, no, you are still in service to my my guilt and my uh grief and all of my other things. And so you must come back. Now, this is against the the will of the puppies. Yes. If the puppies died, and that's a very sad thing, the puppies were in the lap of eternity and they had they were moving along and their energies were were moving along. Now, this deal didn't work for Dr. Frankenstein. And so why is it going to work here? Going in and and and snatching uh trying to soul snatch is a very bad thing to do. It's it's b black magic on steroids with sprinkles.
SPEAKER_01And it was because she was trying to impose her will over the wills of others. And it doesn't matter that the others were animals. No, it doesn't.
SPEAKER_00They have soul, they have spirit. And they had a karmic whatever they were moving on, or whatever they were doing, or so no, that and and there's it's one thing to wish you had them back. Well, everybody kind of wishes, yeah.
SPEAKER_01Or you had to do a do-over.
SPEAKER_00Yeah, and and you can get little thingies with their little ashes or little bits and things like that. But you're supposed to move on because in one way or another you're supposed to move on and allow them to do it. Yes. But this is black magic. This is black magic, and this person has to watch out, and anyone who tries this, because you set yourself an open vortex of I'm this desperate, and all of these naughty energies out there look and say, Oh, desperate. I love to feed on desperate because I can get desperate people to do things that never would they do in their in their calm selves. And so this person needs, first of all, to sit down and and have a have a really good breeze and figure things out. But they uh they also need need serious attention in a lot of ways. And there were puppies born, by the way. So oh, and and those will be interesting puppies to watch because these are these are like little energized cujos, yeah, in one way or another. They might be very nice if they're gonna have strange energy patterns. So, yeah, that that would that would be a story where if there ever was a follow-up available, yeah. Would be interesting too.
SPEAKER_01I'm I'm actually hoping to not get a follow-up on that. Yeah, well, I'm I'm hoping I'm hoping the vortex doesn't open and everybody goes, Well, we live in a time where so many people are doing so many screwy things.
SPEAKER_00Yeah. But this this really uh maximizes it.
SPEAKER_01The other one that came to mind as we were talking here was years ago I was teaching a class on gridding. And uh what had happened was uh a friend of mine's sister had come in, she had brought the sister in, and the sister had decided that she that her other sister shouldn't be married to that husband anymore and set up a grid for divorce. Well, the first thing that happened is this grid was in the safest of places, but she would come every few days and the stones would have just moved so that the grid wasn't working anymore. And she'd set it back up again and blah, blah, blah, and she'd set it back up again. This happened like three or four times. What ended up happening was the sister and her husband started getting along, but this woman and her husband started, I mean, there there was almost divorce proceedings. Yes, that's how and she called me up and she said, and I said, You don't have the right to say that that your sister and brother-in-law don't deserve to be together. They're together, leave it be. The reason you're having a problem is because you were trying to impose your will on someone else that didn't want that outcome.
SPEAKER_00And the the the upside of that is these people who weren't getting along started to get along. Started to get along. And and this other sister discovered that she had windows in her house and the universe was throwing rocks at it.
SPEAKER_01Yes, yes. In the long run, now this one I have the the final story on. Uh the the two that weren't getting along actually started to get along, everything went well, and the woman who had set up the grids, she realized after we talked what she had done, and she took everything down, and things eventually were everybody is still married. Okay. Everybody is still married.
SPEAKER_00So she did her little mayor culpa and it worked out.
SPEAKER_01Yeah, and it did work out. Not all stories end to that happen. No, not that well, but this one did. But anyway. So now we kind of like to move on. I'd like to mention a couple of charms for warding off evil intent of others. We need that. They're not difficult to find, and if charged appropriately, can be extremely protective. And the first is the Hamsa. It's H-A-M-S-A. It is a five-fingered open-palmed amulet. It can be decorated with other symbols. Uh can be very simple, it can be a pendant. One of my customers is actually wearing one now. She's been wearing one for months. They can be silver, they can be whatever color, there can be an eye in them, there can be all kinds of different things. But that is a very good one uh to just basically keep negative intentions at bay.
SPEAKER_00Uh-huh.
SPEAKER_01Good. And that could be put on your door or any place else. Uh, the other is a dream catcher. This, these may be worn, but are often used to protect an individual uh while sleeping by placing them above the bed. So that's and those are just a couple. You could you could use the evil eye charms. I'm wearing one now today. Uh-huh. Um, those are really good. And they're just little minor things. Just give them a nice charge, that type of thing. None of them cost much. You're not, you don't have to go to your local shaman or whatever store and have whatever they they don't have to be terribly expensive. No, they do not. So, do you have a couple more ideas?
SPEAKER_00Excuse me. Yes, I do. The first thing, going along with your dream catcher, is sleeping water. Oh, there you go. You take uh a glass or a plastic cup or anything like that, you put water in it, and if if sleeping has been really fretful lately, put a little pinch of sea salt if you've got it, regular salt if you have it. Whartons if it does if you haven't, and uh three uh peppercorns if you have them, otherwise just shake a little pepper in there. And you put it next to the bed and you affirm it to uh cleanse cleanse your dreams as you sleep and protect you as you sleep. If you've got animals like cats that crawl all over the place and do all kinds of weird things, put it in a little Tupperware container with a lid on it. That isn't going to just because it isn't looking good doesn't mean it doesn't work.
SPEAKER_01And don't worry about Tupperware anymore.
SPEAKER_00Uh they went out of business. Well, yeah, but we we and we're gonna inherit stuff like this for the next you might, I'm not gonna. Next hundred years.
SPEAKER_01I've tried real I've tried really hard to get the Tupperware out of my office.
SPEAKER_00I could give you some. Yeah, yeah, there's a there's a recycled bin out there. Anyway, uh we we may be tempted to just take a yard rock and throw it. There we go, that would work too. But uh having a sleeping water is very good by the bed in general. Take a little baggie, put the uh pinch of sea salt and the three peppercorns in it, uh, attach it, you affirm it again to protection and all that. Put it in your put it in your purse or your bill fold. If you get an extra one, put it in your desk drawer. At work, all people will think is that you eat hard-boiled eggs with salt and pepper on it. And those are are those are a couple other things that can work. In a pinch. In a pinch.
SPEAKER_01Or just on a daily basis, or on a daily basis or something.
SPEAKER_00On a daily basis. You can't do it too much. Oh, with the sleeping water the morning after, say a thank you, pour it out, wash out the container, use it again the next night.
SPEAKER_01Don't drink it.
SPEAKER_00Don't drink it. It's not going to kill you, or it isn't gonna kill kitty or puppy if they accidentally drink it. It's just sludgy.
SPEAKER_01Yeah.
SPEAKER_00So energetically sludgy.
SPEAKER_01Energetically sludgy. So there we go. Well, we've done it. Yes. Now that we have frightened and confused you, we have achieved our purpose. If that if we have done that, we have achieved our goal for the day. And it's time to sign off for another month. So I am Sandy from Gemological Esoterica, and you can find us now on uh psychicswithoutborders.com. Uh you can find both of us on there now, yes.
SPEAKER_00It's a website. We exist. And I'm Linda Strochane of the Mercury Academy, and we remain too dozy broths. Goodbye.
