The true origins of Halloween lie with the ancient Celtic tribes who lived in Ireland, Scotland, Wales and Brittany. For the Celts, November 1st marked the beginning of a new year cycle and the coming of winter. The night before the new year, they celebrated the festival of Samhain, pronounced Sow-one, the Lord of the Dead. During this festival, Celts believed the souls of the dead returned to mingle with the living. On the eve of Samhain, a veil between the worlds parts, allowing communion with ancestors and the spirit world. Families would leave their doors open and set tables with meals for the dead who returned to visit.The purpose of these feasts is to remember those who have died.

Have a blessed Samhain and All Hallows

Twas the evening of Samhain
By Cathor Steincamp

‘Twas the evening of Samhain, and all through the place
were pagans preparing the ritual space.
The candles were set in the corners with care,
in hopes that the Watchtowers soon would be there.

We all had our robes on (as is habitual)
and had just settled down and were starting our ritual
when out on the porch there arose such a chorus
that we went to the door, and waiting there for us
were children in costumes of various kinds
with visions of chocolate bright in their minds.

In all of our workings, we’d almost forgot,
but we had purchased candy (we’d purchased a LOT),
And so, as they flocked from all over the street,
they all got some chocolate or something else sweet.

We didn’t think twice of delaying our rite,
Kids just don’t have this much fun every night.
For hours they came, with the time-honored schtick
of giving a choice: a treat or a trick.

As is proper, the parents were there for the games,
Watching the children and calling their names.
“On Vader, On Leia,
On Dexter and DeeDee,
On Xena, on Buffy,
Casper and Tweety!
To the block of apartments
on the neighboring road;
You’ll get so much candy,
you’ll have to be TOWED!”

The volume of children eventually dropped,
and as it grew darker, it finally stopped.
But as we prepared to return to our rite,
One child more stepped out of the night.

She couldn’t have been more than twelve or thirteen.
Her hair was deep red, and her robe, forest green
with a simple gold cord tying off at the waist.
She’d a staff in her hand and a smile on her face.
No make-up, nor mask, or accompanying kitsch,
so we asked who she was; she replied “I’m a witch.
And no, I don’t fly through the sky on my broom;
I only use that thing for cleaning my room.
My magical powers aren’t really that neat,
but I won’t threaten tricks; I’ll just ask for a treat.”

We found it refreshing, so we gave incense cones,
A candle, a crystal, a few other stones,
And the rest of the candy (which might fill a van).
She turned to her father (a man dressed as Pan)
and laughed, “Yes, I know, Dad, it’s past time for bed,”
and started to leave, but she first turned and said
“I’m sorry for further delaying your rite.
Blessed Samhain to all, and a magical night.”

As the year officially draws to a close and we mark the beginning of the new year, it is a good time to let go of the old and make ready to embrace the new and all that the new year will bring. Is it new love? Is it new job or career? Will your relationship deepen and go to the next level? A psychic reading with Sophia or Lady Sarah can help you see what is leaving your life and what is coming in. You may find out more about our psychics by clicking on their images at left.

Have you ever wondered why you are drawn to specific historical era? Do you feel a close bond to a specific historical figure? Do you want to know why you prefer certain cultures over others? Why you like exotic tastes and textures? Have you ever gone somewhere and had an eerie feeling you have been there before? Have you ever met someone and felt like you have known them before?

Do you want to know why you are afraid of fire? Do you want to know why your back always hurts even though you know you have done nothing to injure it? Have you been healthy all your life, then suddenly at age 30 you develop a strange hoarseness that no doctor can diagnose? Are you in a relationship with someone who seems to hurt you time and again but you stay for some unknown reason? Do you find yourself daydreaming about what it would have been like to be Cleopatra? Joan of Arc? Well, maybe there is more to it than meets the eye.

A past life reading can help you examine these phenomena. During a past life reading a psychic will be able to help you unlock these mysteries. There are many ways to do a past life reading. Some psychics are able to perform a clairvoyant past life reading. When a psychic uses clairvoyance to do a past life reading they are able to see and feel specific events tied to your past life. The psychic may be able to see you prior lives in a vision, much like a video or television show. Or a past life or lives may come to the psychic like a memory or thought.

A past life reading can also be done through a tarot reading. The tarot reader will be able to ask the cards specific questions concerning your most recent past life or any other past life you may have had. As the tarot reader interprets the cards they will be able to see how any past life you have had could possibly be affecting or influencing this one. A past life reading can also be done through a clairaudient psychic reading. During this type of past life reading the psychic will be able to hear, probably from your own guides the past life experiences you have had.

During a past life reading your psychic will be shown if the current blockages and obstacles that surround you are related to a past life. They will be able to see if you are at that same point, the same physical age now that you were in a past life or lives where this same blockage occurred. For a simple example, let’s say Rita contacted a psychic for a past life reading because at age 30 she developed fear of heights. In this lifetime there is no reason for this to happen because Rita had no prior fear of heights. During the past life reading the psychic uncovered that in a past life Rita was a soldier in Jerusalem who was thrown from a 100 foot tower at age 30. Sometimes knowing what that connection to the past life is, that creates the fear or blockage in the present, is enough to be able to move past it.

During a past life reading, the psychic will be able to not only connect with your past life or lives but also to the people who shared each past life with you. They will be able to see the relationships that existed then compared to the ones that exist today. For example, your current boyfriend could have been a boyfriend in a past life, but he could have also been your father, mother or sister. If someone was a spiritual teacher to you in a past life it is likely that you are the teacher in the present. As we incarnate time and again, or revisit the earth so that our soul can grow and evolve, we will come into contact with familiar beings with whom we have incarnated with before.

We do tend to incarnate with the same souls over and over in each lifetime. We do this to learn valuable life lessons from each other. A past life reading will be able to reveal those life lessons that carried forward from a past life.

Most past life readings seem to center around soulmate relationship issues. A soulmate has been described as someone you feel drawn to, deeply connected to, a part of, a perfect match for, in a deeper way then physically or superficially. A soulmate is often described as the other half of your soul. Some people believe that soulmates must pay off a karmic debt to be together, and the connection between them can pass through several lifetimes. A past life reading will allow you to see if you current relationship is a soulmate relationship. Since soulmate relationships can at times be difficult, a past life psychic reading will help you to address any issues from the past life that could possible be hindering a successful happy relationship in this lifetime. A past life reading will also be able to identify what karmic debts you each have with one another. During the reading, your psychic will be able to give guidance on how to move past the past life karma once and for all.

The psychic performing the past life reading does not decide what comes out in your reading, and cannot change or alter what they see.  For the most part psychics would love to only give good news during a past life reading or give everyone the answers that they so desperately want to hear. That is simply not during their past life psychic reading. You may be in a situation where everything seems hopeless. Your relationship, career or finances may be in shambles, but a past life psychic reading can help. Your past life psychic reading may offer you hope that things will be changing for the better, and can offer you the tools to make your situation better and can help you avoid problems that you didn’t even see coming, or help to rectify and problems that currently exist in all areas of your life.

The Circle of Goddesses are able to provide insight and clarity to your current life questions with a past life psychic reading.  Through their psychic and tarot readings, the psychics from the Circle of Goddesses are able to give you insight in love, romance, relationships, career and finance, past life concerns or spiritual growth.

The internet is full of the promise of reuniting lost loves and broken relationships. Spell casters offer a 100% guarantee to put the two of you back together within 3 days. Other sites promise to make him love you forever. Other sites guarantee that with their special love tonic, one drop in your lover’s water will make sure he will never cheat on you. And all of this comes with a pretty high price tag.

Rather than shelling out hundreds, if not thousands, of dollars to a witch or wizard to do a spell for you, you can perform the love spell yourself. And guess what? It is FREE. You don’t have to spend a dime on anything than the materials you need for your spell.  FREE. All it takes is some time and energy. And FREE is a lot better than thousands of dollars.

In addition to a wide variety of books on the love spells, charms and amulets, there are many free love spells available on the internet. These sites offer the details for the spells with directions on how to perform them, the best time to do it and what items you need for the spell. Depending on the deed, you will be able to find the need… in form of a free love spell.

Some of the spells you will find are:

Free love spells to find a Lover

Free love spells to attract a Lover

Free Magick Love Charms

Free love spells to make yourself more attractive

Free love spells to reunite you with a lost love

Free love spells to stop divorce

Free love spells to make him fall in love with you

Free love spells to prevent a breakup

Free love spells to bring you love back to you

Please be very leery of anyone trying to sell you a love spell to reunite you after a breakup. They all offer a 100% guarantee but the only thing guaranteed is that you will lose your money. So many people in their desperation to gain back a lost love have spent so much money on love spells. When someone else does a spell for you, it does not have your energy or essence in it. We have much more power when we do a love spell for ourselves because our very own personal essence and emotion will be put into that love spell. And guess what? Our personal essence and emotion are FREE!

Think of it like this, if you pay Madam Hoohoo $500 to do a love reuniting spell for you how do you know the spell will really be done? They can take your money, tell you they are going to make a wax poppet of both you and your love. They may even ask you for some nails and hair to put into the poppet since that contains your essence. Do you have any nails or hair of your ex lying around? When Madam Hoohoo performs the love spell, if in fact she does it, waves a wand, says hocus pocus and she is done. Where is the emotion? A spell – love spell, money spell, health spell – is really nothing more than energy focused in the direction of something. The materials used to do that spell and the actual exercise itself are a way to create focus. It is the focusing of your energy on something that creates the magick. Energy with emotion is very powerful. Putting your own energy and emotion into a love spell will give it much more zing.

Whenever we do a love spell we need to be very careful not to try and coerce the energy of the other person, the object of our desire. We must always remember that even though we want to be with them more than anything, they do have free will. Whenever we try to manipulate the free will of another we are crossing a line that can bring karmic fallout. So please be careful and consider how you would feel if someone was trying to coerce your free will with a love spell.

So what types of love spells are ok? For example, if you are currently single and would like to attract a love interest into your life, without naming a name, a free love spell could definitely give you an energy boost. Before doing a love spell it is important to check the moon cycle and gather the materials you will need for the spell. Most love spells should be performed when the moon is waxing up until the time it is full. After the full moon, the love spell will not be as effective. A waning moon, the time from the full moon to the next new moon, is a time of release and letting go, a time when were free ourselves of blockages and obstacles. To do a love spell at this time would give the energy of freeing love from you life. That is not what you want to do.  You could perform this love spell on any night of the week, but some circles say that Friday or Saturday night is best.  After you have gathered your items, it is good to cleanse them to make sure they are free of any negative energies or funk attached from anyone else. To clear your materials you can put them outside in the sun for a few minutes or sprinkle them with salt.

Here is a simple FREE LOVE SPELL to attract a love relationship into your life.

·         A piece of paper, preferably parchment paper
·         A pen (not a pencil)
·         A red ribbon
·         Your favorite perfume
·         Your favorite shade of lipstick
·         A pink candle

Get into a quiet and centered place and light the candle. Using the pen and paper list all the qualities you seek in a partner. Even though you may have a specific person in mind for this exercise, it is best not to try and specifically use their characteristics as we can not use magick and love spells to override the free will of another human being. Love spells just don’t work that way. Lightly spritz the paper with your perfume. Roll the paper like a scroll and tie the red ribbon around it. Apply the lipstick and kiss the envelope!! Now sit quietly for a few minutes with the scroll in both hands in front of you and envision yourself happy, peaceful and in love. Hold the image in your mind for as long as you can, focusing on your happiness. When you are finished, put the scroll under your pillow or in a safe place. Don’t untie it or you will break the spell.

This is just one simple of example of a love spell. There are hundreds of free love spells available online. We will be posting other examples of free love spells as well free money spells, free job spells and candle magick on our blog.

Before doing a love spell it is usually a good idea to have a psychic or tarot reading to determine if doing the love spell is in the best and highest good for you. The psychics at the Circle of Goddesses are able to tap into these energies and see if your love spell will be successful and also determine if this is the right time for the love spell to be performed.

Since the dawn of time mankind has tried to understand how the stars and planets influence their lives. From earliest civilizations, including Stonehenge, New Grange as well as the pyramids of Egypt and the Yucatan, man has used the position of the stars and planets as a calendar as well as a way to explain events of their lives – economic hardship, crops, changing seasons, wars and omens. The result is a combination of science and religion, which has become Astrology. Astrology comes from the Greek term “science of the stars” and embodies the art and science of studying the heavens, the motion of the planets and the stars to determine how they influence human personality and behavior.

People have been seeking astrologers for thousands of years to receive predictions for future events delivered through an astrology reading. An astrology reading can help you see how the planets have affected your life from the day you were born. When you get an astrology reading, the astrologer will need to cast your birth, or natal, chart. This chart, or road map of where the planets were on the day you were born, is the cornerstone of your individual astrology reading and the foundation the astrologer will use to predict what you can expect in the months to come. Your birth chart shows where all the planets were on the day you were born and what influences will be affecting your personality, character and traits based upon those influences. During an astrology reading you will learn how the planets have influenced the development of your personality and character. An astrology reading can be used to help you better understand yourself. During your astrology reading you will also be able to understand why you do the things you do, why you like certain types of music, furniture or clothing, where the best place to live is and your best career choices. In other words, the astrology reading, will show you why you are the way you are.

Astrology readings can be done to illuminate what is happening in your life and what you should be prepared for in the coming months. This is called a predictive astrology reading. During a predictive astrology reading, your astrologer could tell you things such as when you will be changing your residence, when you will start a new job, when you will be facing major financial or health issues, when you might get married or when a new romantic partner could be entering your life. As opposed to a tarot or psychic reading, an astrology reading can provide a more concise timeline for specific events based upon how the planets will either support or be unsupportive of any changes you want to make in your life. An astrology reading will show us what we need to be aware of, watch out for and prepare for. An astrology reading will allow us to prepare for challenges that are coming toward us so that we are not blind sighted by a catastrophic event. An astrology reading gives us a brief snap shot of what is to come and when.

A predictive astrology reading will also be able to tell you what transits you can expect for the next 6 – 12 months. During an astrology reading your astrologer will tell you which planets will be helping you along your journey as well as which planets could be restrictive. This does not mean that your astrology reading is bringing bad news. It does imply, however, that you have specific challenges occurring for the duration of these transits as the planets hang out in specific areas of your chart. These can be great opportunities for spiritual growth because sometimes these challenges can be quite difficult. During your astrology reading, your astrologer will tell you when the difficult aspects will come to an end.

There are many sites, as well as astrologer’s personal sites, who offer predictive astrology readings. Some people prefer astrology readings over tarot or psychic readings believing that astrology readings have a stronger scientific foundation. In some regards this is true. Astrology is a very complex and technical science. Some astrologers describe themselves as scientists, and even though they provide astrology readings, they sometimes do it without using intuition. There are some astrologers, however, who use intuition during their astrology reading sessions. Additionally, some psychic and tarot readers, will add astrology to their reading as a way of providing more detailed information as well as time lines.  The type of astrology reading a person gets really depends on personal preference.

Some sites offer free astrology readings, which will produce a computer generated birth chart for you, after you supply the birth date, time and location. It is important for your birth chart that you know the birth date, time AND location to provide the most precise astrology reading. Without all 3 elements the astrology reading will be incomplete. Your birth date is used to determine your Sun Sign. Your birth time is used to determine your rising sign, or ascendant. Additionally, your moon sign is also calculated. The combination of these elements, and the location of the other planets at the time of your birth are all key to providing the best and most precise astrology reading.

Individual astrology readings are much more complete and informative than the daily horoscopes you can read online or in the paper. The world horoscope comes from the Greek words ”hora” meaning hour and “skopos” meaning watcher. It charts the positions of the Sun, Moon and planets in relationship to the earth. Daily horoscope readings and free horoscope readings are available on many websites, newspapers and magazines. They are very general, usually giving only 3-4 lines of text and nowhere near as detailed as a personal astrology reading, which is based on you and only you.

In addition to personal astrology readings, many astrologers offer relationship compatibility readings. During a relationship astrology reading, the astrologer will prepare a birth chart for both parties in the relationship to determine if the two people are a good match based on their astrological aspects. Sometimes it is a great experience to have a relationship astrology reading done to see if you and your partner are truly compatible and what challenges you might be presented with. During a relationship astrology reading, the astrologer will compare where each parties Sun and Moon lie within the charts because that determines what type of man or woman you will be attracted to. Also during your reading, the astrologer will check the positions of Venus and Mars to determine the sexual and physical chemistry between yourself and your partner.

Western astrology focuses the 12 signs of the zodiac to define specific dates relevant to each sign in doing an astrology reading. For the most part, this type of astrology reading will largely be focused on your sun sign. In addition to Western astrology readings, the one that most readers are familiar with, there is also Vedic astrology readings. Vedic astrology is a 7000 year old predictive astrology system from India. They use the same Sun sign names, but the timing of the signs occur on different dates than traditional western astrology. If you are interested in checking out a Vedic astrology reading, you might consider searching Google for “Vedic astrology reading”.

Almost every civilization has used astrology to understand and predict specific events such as crop yields, weather patterns, economic forecasts and eclipses. It is a system that has been around for as long as civilization itself and will continue to be as long as we are curious how and when certain events will unfold in our lives. An astrology reading will give you a blueprint for what you can expect in the coming months so you are prepared to handle whatever life, or the planets, is throwing at you.
