Hello Hello hello !! Happy culmination of 1 week to this wonderful hive in #hive, today is a super day full of spirituality and lights, today I wanted to talk to you in a little more about what a wicca really is, wiccas are originally how they are It was called good witches in the past, in the 20th century it was discovered and exposed by Gerald Gardner a retired British official who claimed he had found a new pagan religion, and certainly it was always seen as ambiguous, pagan and demonized religion for a long time However, wiccerism, or witchcraft is not a religion as such because it does not pray to any God, it is a practice that uses the elements of the earth and the universe only for cleaning, abundance, evolution , and the stability of the person. Hobbes explains in his last chapter on leviathan, the state made up of witches, and in the statement that previously societies and the state as such was ruled by rujar that they knew how to interpret and protect the leviathan through the practices and readings that the world , the elements, or nature left them, and that is the pure idea of Wicca.
This practice was so important in ancient times that even today in societies the influence of it is seen in the cities, in the bills, or even in the rules or laws that are created, a reflection of this is the organization of some squares, for example in my country there is the Plaza Bolívar that has been there for about 200 years, in it are located the government building on the right hand side, representing the path to guide for society, the church representing faith and protection of God in the center and on the left side a judicial building representing the protection and justice of men. Its organization clearly refers to the holy trinity, and its location located to the east, northwest, south or north seeks the elements of nature, to strengthen its power or protection as well explained by collage in the ancient city. Bearing that in mind, and all the elements found in society, it is always good to connect with this idea to protect ourselves and move forward if we feel that something is not flowing in the correct way. For example, in my house it is very customary to carry out protective energy cleaning for the home, in this way we make sure that dark or bad energies do not interfere with us and our projects, one in particular has been practiced for a long time and was a ritual of my grandmother, when she passed away I decided to adopt her again to the place where I am currently living and it really was a wonderful experience, it is difficult to hold on to a new home, or create one, so after performing the wicca ritual of my grandmother, I felt much more comfortable in my new home.
Then I will tell you about the ritual that I use to provide protection to my new home and I invite you if you want to be able to do it, the ritual can be performed any day of the week if you like, but I always do it on Sundays because Sunday is The day of the family and rest, this ritual needs the 4 elements (air, earth, water, fire) and a compass to locate the cardinal points in the house, one must go to the living room with the compass and locate the east, north, south and west. Once we locate the cardinal points, we proceed to place a representative element in each cardinal point, the element must correspond to the cardinal point that is being placed. As has already been explained previously in Wicca practices, each cardinal point is related to a natural and pure force, a force that drives good magic towards homes, I will then proceed to briefly explain to you which element corresponds to each cardinal point, and why?
EL NORTE
Se vincula con la tierra, la solidez, la seguridad y la consistencia. Es una energía femenina y fértil. Se representa a través del color verde y su estación es el invierno. Está relacionado con la salud y la estabilidad, el poder de lo físico.
EL OESTE
Se corresponde con el agua, es emocional, sensible e intuitiva. El Otoó es su estación y suele representarse con el color azul.
EL SUR
Es el fuego, muestra la energía, la fuerza, la pasión y el deseo. Es una energía masculina cuya estación es el verano. Se suele asociar con el color rojo.
EL ESTE
Pertenece al aire. Se asocia a la mente, la creatividad, la concentración y la memoria. Es una energía masculina cuyo color es el amarillo. La primavera es su estación.
THE NORTH
It is linked to the earth, solidity, security and consistency. It is a feminine and fertile energy. It is represented through the color green and its season is winter. It is related to health and stability, the power of the physical.
WEST
It corresponds to the water, it is emotional, sensitive and intuitive. Autumn is its season and it is usually represented with the color blue.
THE SOUTH
It is fire, it shows energy, strength, passion and desire. It is a masculine energy whose season is summer. It is usually associated with the color red.
THE EAST
It belongs to the air. It is associated with the mind, creativity, concentration and memory. It is a masculine energy whose color is yellow. Spring is their season.
Now, knowing this, the ritual becomes easier once we locate the cardinal points, we proceed to place certain elements in them, for example in the north of the house a plant must be placed with a pot full of previously fertilized soil, in the west cardinal point you can place a transparent bowl full of water, or you can also place some flowers in water alluding to the liquid element, in the south point some candles are placed (as many people want, personally I like to light one for each person who is in the house) you can be aromatic or normal, and finally at this point you can place incense, or also a mobile that you like, or a yellow crystal referring to the air. Once this is done, we place ourselves in the center of our home and recite the following exclamation: I am light, and I radiate in my home a protective light so that evil does not enter, a light of prosperity, a light of abundance and a light of happiness. so that my home is always protected, blessed and illuminated.Now we can leave the elements as long as we want in the cardinal points, to finish a family meal is made with all the inhabitants of the house, I advise preparing some grains or rice which refers to abundance. I also recommend that you create your environment before performing this ritual, I like to clean the house thoroughly and take a good relaxing bath before starting it. so it must also be done with a lot of faith, and always invoking light and positive energies.
Well I hope this ritual is of interest to you, and if you do it I hope you will tell me in the comments how it went and if you felt comfortable doing it, finally I would like to thank the @naturalmedicine community for all the support since I started my I travel in this magnificent community, as well as I would like to leave my social networks below so that if you like you can follow me there.
This post is inspired by the blog spells, wicca and paganism, so it is also based on the works of leviathan chapter X by thomas hobbes, and on the ancient city of collage.
