Unite with nature
Becoming a Witch means first and foremost to reunite with the surrounding nature.
This means we have to develop a (new or renewed) feeling for nature and we can only do that when we surround ourselves with natural materials.
Ware wool or cotton, not polyester or nylon.
Use a wooden comb and brush, to brush your hair, to avoid electric sparkles.
Electricity is one of the most powerful energies in nature, but also the most difficult to control. It often moves in erratic ways and seems to have a mind of its own.
Electricity has both good and bad qualities, but as a starting Witch you better
avoid working in an environment where a lot of electricity is in the air.
(Even more experienced Witches can still have serious problems due to
unexpected electrical whims.)
Try to sit or stand on natural materials when performing Witchcraft so as not to perturb the sanctified air. Of course it is best to stand (barefooted) on solid ground such as the soil of a garden or park, but as many people live in towns, tucked away in small apartments that don't even have a balcony, an alternative must be kept in mind.
So, if you perform in your house try to sit on wooden floorboards, stone tiled floors or if need be on a woollen carpet on a concrete floor. Al these are better than to sit on polyester floor coverings or plastic sheets, which again can cause static electricity.
We live in a world full of vibes. Good vibes and bad vibes, pure vibes and "polluted" or perturbed vibes. Everything radiates its own vibes, from stones and animals over human beings and all sorts of objects in between.
So, no, don't be so naïve to think that only Mobile Phones or Microwave ovens radiate vibes. Everything does.
What Witches try to do is harmonize these vibes. Make everything in the world back in balance.
All the more reason not to let things perturbed by static electricity. If you have ever seen the striking of a lighting you know that it moves in very erratic directions. That is not exactly harmonised or harmonising. J
In order to make changes we must first be aware of the state of being of people, animals, objects, stones, plants and what more inhabits this planet.
Therefore we need to be attentive.
It used to be a rage in the sixties to talk about "Awareness", but being aware of things is not enough.
We have now come to the next step of "Mindfulness". To make it simple to understand I can say;
We may be aware of the cat in the room, but if we do not "mind" the cat, we might trip over it.
Knowing that the cat is there is one thing, but minding that she is there, means we have to really pay attention to her.
Now we must try to be aware and mindful about everything that surrounds us. If you do, you might find yourself less prone to trip over things or bump in to things. That's a good beginning.
