Three Sacred Centers

Three Dan-Tiens

Three important centers: head, heart, and stomach. The third eye is the intellect, the ability to see spiritually. The heart is the emotion, the ability to feel. The stomach is the Dan-Tien, your energy center. In the East, these are called "three secrets": Yantra, mantra, and mudra.

Crow on the square of the moon


Crow


Omens

When I see an omen, I acknowledge it by saying "Spirit, bless me" or "Spirit, blessings to thee." Spirit speaks through signs. You are either getting a cleaning or a blessing or both. You have to interpret the sign and some can be quite sophisticated in their message.

Divine Mother


Divine Mother

The Divine and Holy Mother is a patron for some, spiritualist and mediums.

Heaven and Earth

Earth is reality, our center of gravity, grounding. It relates to the three lower chakras which are physical. Heaven is idealistic, spiritual, and somewhat abstract and it relates to the three upper chakras. We stand in the middle, the heart center, between heaven and earth, balancing reality and spirit. On those occasions where the physical and the spiritual come together, we can have a miracle. This is also called the axis mundi, upper, middle, and lower world.

Magick

Magick is the art of the spirit. It uses the elements, fire-earth-air-water. Basically you are creating sacred space, building up power, and communicating with your source. Magick should not be rigid, there should be a flowing, creative interaction with spirit. Magick is an art and actually explains the power of art.

Triangle of manifestation


Trinity in prayer

The triangle of manifestation is the trinity of prayer. The trinity is air, fire, and water, air being the source, the divine, water being the cleaning and releasing, fire being the blessing. An example of this would be praying for a relationship. You have to contact your inner source, then clean residue from old relationships as you invoke something new. The triangle of manifestation.

Water and red wax divination


Water bowl divination with red candle wax

Dripping drops of wax into a water bowl, blowing upon the wax as it moves and takes form, reading the images and speaking into the water, both a sending and a receiving.
If you look at this picture, perhaps you will see a heart, maybe a dragon. That is what I see, dragon heart!
Water bowl divination.

Prayer

All ritual is prayer. In fact, it is the prayer that makes the ritual come alive. There is so much more to prayer power that just asking the divine for things you want. Prayer is both simple and a complex study, geometrical patterns, magic circles, the lighting of candles, the offering of water, the contacting of the spirit within, is all part of a prayer. Center of the great work is the contact of the abstract core, the Holy Spirit, and developing an interactive relationship.
