The Power of Words

Part One – What is an Incantation?

At the beginning of this year I was told in a journey to work with magic and spells.

This did not appeal to me at all – sounds like witchcraft, evil intent and interfering with nature – and made me think of scary things like being burned at the stake. My deep Christian background rears its head and cries no, but my inner soul-spirit is once again prodded into observation, learning and reflection. Because you see, I have told spirit I am willing – I am willing to go on, to be uncomfortable with myself, to grow – but only in the name of love and healing, only in the light of wisdom and heart. Spirit is most obliging and thus I travel new roads of experience and understanding – sometimes a little like a frightened child peeking around the corner into a room full of warmth and light, afraid to see that it is safe and alright.
