Mysticism
Mysticism is usually
defined in dictionaries and encyclopedias as a spiritual discipline used to
make contact with the divine. While this definition is frequently correct,
there have been many people who have had mystical experiences without following
a special discipline. Conversely, many people have followed a set of spiritual
practices carefully and for a prolonged period but have never contacted the
divine. The mystical event is a personal experience during which one feels as
though one has been touched by some higher or greater truth or power. This may
occur inside or outside of a religious setting, within or outside a religious
tradition.

Law of Attraction
The Law of Attraction is the most important law in the universe - there is a lot to say about it! Indulge in all the articles on this site and learn how to become your own Creator! Law of attraction says that all your thoughts, all images in your mind, and all the feelings connected to your thoughts will later manifest as your reality. In other words; everything you have in your life - now - has been attracted to you thrut your mind. Love and Happiness: Mantra for Happiness - Loving Detachment Simply put, happiness is satisfaction of mind. However, different individuals have different perceptions of how to achieve happiness. For some, happiness lies in wealth; for others, it is in rank and position; yet others find happiness in fame and name. Commonly, happiness is measured by achievement in terms of money, property, other material possessions, power, name, fame, education, lifestyle, position and social status. You are creating your own reality, moment by moment, with the thoughts you choose to think and what you say, both to yourself and others. Let's explore this a little further. Most people will agree, and science can demonstrate, that everything in our world is a field of energy and therefore has a particular frequency. The chair you are sitting on, your car, your cat, dog, you and everything else including thoughts, have a field of energy or vibration.

The role of bathing and cleaning
In esoteric terminology, performing a ritual or spell is often called "doing a job". The simplest jobs may involve bathing or anointing oneself or cleaning the house in a prescribed way. In these cases, the entire job consists of bathing a set number of times or washing down the walls, floors, and door step of the home or place of business in a ritual manner. Generally, the disposal of used bath water or floor wash from such work consists of throwing it to the east at or before sunrise, accompanied by a short, formula recitation. If a bath is intended to draw in good luck, it is common for the conjure to tell the bather to rub the body only in an upward direction after pouring the bath. If the bath is for the removal of evil conditions, the client may be told to bathe by rubbing in a downward direction only. In either case, the used bath water, enhanced by the essence of the bather, may become an ingredient in further spell work, ritually sprinkled, used to wipe away enemy tricks and witchcraft spells, or be added to floor wash. Ritual floor-washing is likewise divided into two classes of work: washing to draw in good luck, and washing to remove evil. To attract good fortune, business clients, store customers, or a lover, one scrubs the front doorstep inward, to draw in what is wanted. When spiritually cleaning a home or business premises to rid it of evil conditions, one works from the top floor of the building down to the bottom floor and from the back of each floor to the front of each floor, ending at the front doorstep, which is usually given special attention and scrubbing. The used wash-water may be thrown into the front yard, toward the East, or, if preferred, the washing-out may continue down the house-path toward the road and conclude by throwing the water to East at the border of the property. More complex hoodoo spells done to improve one's condition in life in various ways might comprise dressing an amulet, burning candles and incense, or fixing up a estoteric bag to be carried on the person. Spell work directed against enemies may involve laying tricks or throwing down materials for the victim to step over. Very strong jobs of both these types may take on the characteristics of elaborate magical rituals -- and in many cases when such a complex job is undertaken, ritual bathing forms the prelude to doing the job and a second ritual bath or a ritual house-cleaning followed by a ritual bath is the concluding act which marks its close.

Perfumed body washes
Another style of ritual purification employs floral-scented Spiritual Colognes and Toilet Waters to rid an area of bad spirits, attract or pay homage to good spirits, and to refresh those who are suffering from psychic distress. Expensive concentrated perfumes are not often used as floor washes but they may be mixed with water and placed in a bowl on an altar or sprinkled on the body. The most popular products for these purposes are diluted perfumes, called Waters and Colognes. Among the best-known in the context of spell-craft are Florida Water and Kananga Water. Full bottles may be placed on altars as offerings. Rub-downs with these colognes are also widely considered helpful in cases of unnatural illness. A similar perfume, Hoyt's Cologne, is splashed or wiped on the body to promote gambling luck and personal power. It is also used as an alcohol medium to extract herbal essences, such as protective Devil's Shoe Strings and empowering High John the Conqueror root Other perfumed body washes used in spell-craft include Rose Water Cologne for love spells and Orange Blossom Water Cologne for the enhancement of Marriage spells and as an aid to Peaceful Home spells and Attraction spells. They may be worn on the body, added to floor washes, sprinkled on an altar or around a room, or used to wash ceremonial tools and lucky charms or amulets. All five of the above-named Spiritual Colognes and Toilet Waters originated in the 19th century or earlier as commercial formulas and they are generally purchased in spiritual supply stores or occult shops rather than hand-made by practitioners. They are prayed over to consecrate them for magical use.

Evil eye
The evil eye is a widely distributed element of folklore or superstition: a belief that some people, often women seen as witches, can bestow a curse on victims by the malevolent gaze of their magical eye. The effects on victims vary; some have them afflicted with bad luck of various sorts. Others believe the evil eye has even more baleful powers, that it can cause disease, wasting away, and even death. Some cultures hold that the evil eye is an involuntary jinx that is cast unintentionally by people unlucky to be cursed with the power to bestow it by their gaze. Others hold that while it is not strictly voluntary, the power is called forth by the sin of envy. It may be that the term covet (to eye enviously) in the tenth Commandment refers to casting the evil eye, rather than to simple desire or envy.Evil eye - Distribution of the beliefBelief in the evil eye is strongest in the Middle East, Asia and Europe, especially the Mediterranean region; it has also spread to other areas like the Americas. In some more areas where light-colored eyes are relatively rare, people with blue eyes are feared to possess the power to bestow the curse, intentionally or unintentionally. Belief in the evil eye features in Islamic mythology; it is not a part of Islamic doctrine, however, and is more a feature of Islamic folk religion. The evil eye is also significant in Jewish folklore; it is called the "ayin harah" in Hebrew. Ashkenazi Jews traditionally exclaim "Keyn aynhoreh!" meaning "No evil eye!" in Yiddish to ward off a jinx after something or someone has been rashly praised or good news spoken aloud. In Latin, the evil eye was fascinum, the origin of the English word "to fascinate". In Italian the evil is called jettatura or mal' occhio, in Greek baskania or matiasma. The evil eye belief also spread to northern Europe, especially the Celtic regions.
