The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

Everyone has a special place inside their subconscious that their spirit can go for peace and enlightenment. A "happy place" if you will. This place can only be touched by you and what you allow inside. For instance your spirit guides. Other peoples subconscious can't enter however. This place is yours alone and must be kept so.



As for what this place looks like, that is different for every person. Most people find that their place is an outdoors scene, although there are those who may have a cave or even a cottage. Its all depending on the witches soul. One thing, however, that each place generally has in common is the lack of mechanical appliances, such as videogames for example. This is because mechanical goods are manmade and therefore connected with man's busy world. Nature is different. It was there before mechanics and as such is a part of us in a way that mans mechanics will never be.



GETTING STARTED:

• First off be sure you are doing this in a time and place in which you will not be disturbed. This can be outside or inside. Its up to you.



• Next create a comfortable and peaceful atmosphere. Some people play soft music, some play bird calls, some just listen to nature, and others like the silence. What ever is relaxing for you.



• Next sit cross legged. This position allows your chakras to be in line and better access your subconscious.



• Now close your eyes and concentrate. Focus on letting yourself go and finding your "sacred place." You may even ask out loud to the earth, spirit guides, or a great spirit/spirits to assist you in this task. Also, some people find it easier to get into the meditative state while they give a steady beat to a drum. (A thick book or table will do if you have no drum)



• This may take sever hours to completely focus and slip into your subconscious. The time is different for everyone. But you must remember never to let your mind wander from your goal.



MAKING THE JOURNEY:

To get to your sacred place you must journey. Most find themselves in a forest and have to track through it. Some begin in a meadow, or even in the mountains. Like the place itself, the journey to it depends on the persons soul. In any case when you find yourself surrounded by nature with a pull in a specific direction, follow that pull. Your spirit knows where its place is even if your mind doesn't. You may even find your spirit guide there if you are in touch with them, and they will help guide you. You will know when you have reached your destination.



IMPORTANT NOTICE:

It is perfectly fine to share your journey and describe your "Sacred Place" to others. It is a place that only you and your guides can reach. So you have no danger in someone overtaking it. Like our link to the earth, so is your link to that place. It is natures law like life and death. This place is yours. Only you have the key to get in.

Light some Lavender or Rosewood incense and sit for a moment and meditate on what troubles have been stirring you up. Then say this chant:



"Send to me now tranquillity

And call me fourth stability.

So that I may again be calm.

Without a worry or a qualm.

Embracing warmth envelope my soul

So that I may feel bright & whole.

As this now washes over me,

As I will, so mote it be"



Now sit for a moment and allow the energies of tranquility surround and calm you. Take deep, slow breaths.

• A strong flame of your candle indicates that the energy of your spell has power and strength. It also means that it is, has, or will manifest with or with out help from other outside forces such as other witches or spirits.



• A weak flame may indicate heavy opposition or obstacles lay in your way and thus in your current state the spell may not take effect. Its recommended to pause, blow out the candle, do a quick meditation to better clear your mind and then try again. If the flame is still feeble then the obstacles working against you may most likely be from an outside force.



• If the flame is jumping constantly then it could be do to high energy of strong emotions, such as anger or fighting. This energy may not always be coming from you directly but by other spirits or living things in your space.



• If the flame is strong and jumps only occasionally then there are spirits fighting obstacle's on your behalf.
