BROOMSTRAW

“And didn’t she take a straw and check to see if the cake was done. Didn’t I see her do that? It’s witchcraft is what it is. How in all of nature can a broom straw predict if a cake is done.”

“There’s dough on the straw if the cake is not done. It’s a testing is all.”

“Science then and what’s worse… But I still think it witchcraft. The cake tasted of strawberries and honeycomb and it the middle of winter. And she divined it with a broom straw.”

Preventing Psychic Attack

Psychic Protection



PREVENTING PSYCHIC ATTACK:

Most people aren’t onto the conscious use of magic and wouldn’t know how to send ill will your way on purpose. (And those who know wouldn’t). Still, we are affected on various levels by the ill wishes of those around us even if they don’t know what they are doing. Anger often carries a punch that can be felt by those of an empathic nature.
For instance, if you anger the clerk at the grocery store or if he’s simply had a bad day and resents you being there, a cloud of hostility may follow you as you leave. It will dissipate quickly without the staying power of intent and strong will behind it. Usually.
One way to make certain you don’t attract and keep the haphazardly created ill will of those around you is to create a spiritual practice and exercise this very real part of your nature. Many practice what is called the tower of light on a regular basis. Some use prayer beads. Some use sage. Some do protection spells such as the mirror spell. Some use a cleansing rite (such as the washing rite in October 2004’s issue of Spindle).
Often for a real attack to work, it needs our permission. We give this unwittingly by harmfully programming ourselves to receive blame we think we deserve. By repeating a negative mantra of self-abuse, “I’m so dumb.” “I’m not good enough.” Or whatever it is we say to ourselves on a regular basis. This is like wearing a sign saying, “Kick me”. It weakens you spiritual/emotional immune system.
For the most part, we are immune to the angers and hostilities of those we come into contact with. We have a natural armor known as an aura. Natural psychics and those who train their psychic abilities can often see another person’s aura. This light which surrounds has a faint glow of color which changes according to our physical, emotional or psychic health. According to those familiar with reading auras, when a person is angry, her aura becomes charged with red, although red can also mean passion or creative fire.
A signal sent is often returned as others of the same energy come into proximity. This is why it happens sometimes that an angry person spoiling for a fight finds one. We draw like a magnet. Like attracts like.
Seal your auric field with sage or other methods of cleansing that can purify the signal, no longer calling what you don’t hope to find. Spells, prayers or meditation can dissipate anger or fear.

Try enchanting a small stem of birch and a piece of red cotton or wool thread with protective energy. Done mind-fully and with intent, this talisman can bring you the protecting energy given by the Handmaiden, Syn. Keep this with you or in your car or on your altar. Think of it when it is needed, even if the physical object is not with you. Call on Syn or the inherent purity of birch when you feel threatened.
