Was Constantine Really the First Christian Emperor?
The controversial issue of Constantine's supposed conversion to Christianity has bedevilled serious students of his age, ever since the time of Gibbon (1737 - 1794). This historian, with the typical scepticism of the eighteenth century rationalist, first confronted the conventional view of Constantine, portrayed as champion of the church and first Christian emperor. This traditional, over-simplified and idealised picture of the emperor had its origins in the writings of certain early church historians, who left accounts contained references to miraculous "visions" and "celestial signs". Obviously these types of events lie outside the legitimate realm of secular historiography. In any[..]
Easter's Secret History
As a child I remember sitting through service on Easter Sunday. The longest sermon of the year, although for some reason I was intrigued. Maybe it was because I knew that when I got home a big Easter basket, a few new toys and so much chocolate candy that half of it would see the following Easter was waiting for me at home. In all of my gluttony on Easter Sunday I never failed to question where my chocolate Jesus was. Where were my chocolate burrow, or palm tree and crucifix? This is what Pastor Bob talked about in his sermon every year. He never mentioned an Easter bunny, or an Easter basket. He never alluded to a biblical Easter egg hunt. As I would come down from my sugar high[..]
Tongues - Part 1
The gift of tongues is difficult to understand, not because it is shrouded in mystery, but because there is so much historical confusion about it. The first difficulty is to understand what it is, to define it correctly -- biblically. We will use the interpretive principle that the plainest, most ordinary and simple definition is the most likely to be true. However, this will require that we disabuse ourselves of the contemporary definition and use of tongues through the widely popular Pentecostal movement of the last hundred years. Much of the popular success regarding the understanding and use of the gift of tongues by the Pentecostal movement must be credited to the historical[..]
The Celtic Influence - Its Relevance For Today
So what can an examination of the early blossoming of Christianity in the fringes of Britain and Ireland bring to our spiritual lives today? As Christians we have firstly to realise that it is not just we who look to the past and to a heritage handed down from our Celtic ancestors. In this post-modern world Celtic legend is the strongest single source in the current revival of interest in paganism. However, in the same way that followers of paganism find it difficult to acknowledge the flowering of Celtic culture that took place within Celtic Christianity, so admirers of the early Celtic Church can be troubled by collections of Celtic prayers and blessings containing charms and curses.[..]
African Witchcraft is a collective term used to describe the spiritual traditions (both past and present) of the various ethnic groups in Africa. From a historical point of view, Egyptian Witchcraft and Arabic Sihr traditionally formed a part of the mix. These two ceremonial forms of Witchcraft are nearly extinct, and have been replaced by the Islamic faith. The witchcraft practiced in the rest of Africa is shamanistic in nature. Long before the East and the West converged on the continent, the shamanistic practices of Africans were remarkably similar in spite of the ethnic and tribal diversity that prevailed. This is no longer the case, though. The influences of the Christian and the[..]
In the second part of the interview with Javier, we continue to explore the use of Healing plants and Ayahuasca. discusses his involvement with the shamanic Plant medicines of the Amazon, and Ayahuasca in particular. Javier was interviewed by Howard G Charing and Peter Cloudsley in the Peru, Amazon Rainforest 2000. Does each shaman have to find it all out for himself or is there a body of knowledge handed down? The maestro goes with the apprentice into the wilderness and gives him the different plants and it is like a test or trial to overcome. The maestro is usually a member of family. In my case both my grandfather and my uncle were maestros. You go off deep into the forest with your[..]
What is Animism?
Animism is the belief that all things have spirit and that all spirits are one. There is no separateness, no hierarchy. All spirits are equal, because all spirits are part of the oneness. Animism lacks the duality of later belief systems: good/bad, negative/positive, and so on. In animism, values are thought of more as a spectrum from less powerful to more powerful, from less harmonious to more harmonious. Although many people have never heard of animism, it is the oldest belief system. Shamanism developed from it. Many indigenous people still live in animist cultures. In animism, humans do not consider themselves to be the center of the universe. For example, many animals are[..]
The Changing Face of Wicca in India
The reason why witchcraft is commonly considered a territory that is taboo is because most traditional connotations of the term associate it with different senses of 'harmful'. This is in spite of the fact that the etymology actually encompasses implications of 'curative' and 'benign'.' Wicca', the Old English masculine noun meaning 'male witch, wizard' somehow evolved into embracing the domain of female spirituality. However, popular opinion seems to be that notwithstanding the 'Wizard of Oz', a male witch is also a 'witch', and not a 'warlock' as is sometimes assumed. It is only that through long association, the word witch has come to have a female feel to it, phonetically and[..]

Handfasting- a Different Kind of Wedding
Wicca is a nature-based religion that is polytheistic and worships divinity in both male and female forms- God and Goddess. Wiccans revere the Earth and believe they must give to the community. Wiccans do not believe in Satan, or "the Devil", although they are often accused of being Satan- worshippers. A Handfasting ceremony is often referred to as a "Wiccan wedding". The ceremony may or may not be legally binding, and can be for a "year and a day" (a "trial); for "as long as love lasts"; or two souls may be united for "the rest of this lifetime and for all subsequent lifetimes to follow", since Wiccans believe in reincarnation. For a handfasting to be a legally binding wedding, a[..]
What is the Difference Between Wicca and Witchcraft?
In an essence, Wicca and Witchcraft cannot really be differentiated between in a discussion as Wiccans use witchcraft as a ritualistic tool. Many people tend to think about spells, witches, etc. when hearing about Witchcraft mostly due to history and misconceptions about it. Furthermore, witchcraft can only really be defined separately to Wicca when it is practiced without its purpose within the Wiccan culture. Witchcraft is an important part of Wicca philosophy, in much the same way as blessings and exorcisms have been used in the Christian faith for centuries. Popular culture has shown many of us Father Karras reciting from the bible, and casting holly water on the possessed body of[..]
Beloved Trees of the Celts
As in many, actually most ancient belief systems, trees were highly venerated and the ancient Celts were no exception to this common thread in the theologies of the time. This seems quite logical given that the landscape of Europe and the British Isles were thickly forested in those days, and that trees provided the population with most of the necessities of life. Trees were not only useful, but pleasing to the eye and provided a living metaphor for the interconnectedness of the universe; branches in the heavens, roots deep in the earth. In addition to all this, they also seemed to be endowed with immortality! As sacred beings in their midst, trees were believed to possess personalities,[..]
Coppice and Loppers
Walk through any woodland anywhere in the English countryside and you will see signs of coppice work, visit any country show and you will see coppice workers producing fences and besom brooms and the dictionary gives the definition of coppice as an area of small trees. So it is time to define what exactly a coppice worker does and highlight the work they do in maintaining our historic countryside. Brian Raines lives and works in the small hamlet of Michelmersh, near Romsey in Hampshire and is a full time coppice worker and after spending a few hours in his company walking around the 50 odd acres that he part owns and part manages I decided that he was totally nuts and, like many who[..]
Traditional Irish Wedding Ceremony Customs
When we think of weddings, most of us picture the traditional ceremony that has been handed down from Victorian England. In recent years, however, many engaged couples elect to forego those traditions and use their wedding to celebrate their cultural roots. In this article, I'll provide many ways in which couples can incorporate Irish customs into their own wedding ceremony, and in a following article, I'll describe traditions regarding the wedding reception. Invitations and other wedding stationery.

Best Places to Visit in Edinburgh During the Spring Season
Spring is a delightful time to enjoy Edinburgh's beautiful landscape and vibrant culture, before the throng of the summer crowds descend, but with a wealth of events to keep things interesting.

Legally, No Common Law Marriage In The UK
There are a lot of advantages to living in the United Kingdom - the National Health Service (what's left of it), the best cup of tea in the world and the comfort of always knowing that England will lose the World Cup. However, common law marriage is not one of the advantages - which might even be news to the English. An American Import It's thought that the idea of a common law marriage having the same rights and insurance coverage as for traditionally married couples came from America. There are certain states in the US (not all of them) where common law marriage couples can get many of the same privileges as traditionally married couples. Despite what many people think, you can't just[..]
Ideas For a Traditional Irish Wedding Ceremony
Having a culturally themed wedding is a wonderful tribute to your heritage. For those hailing from the land of rolling green hills, Celtic crosses, and shamrocks, here are some ideas for a traditional Irish wedding. The Claddaugh ring consists of hands holding a heart with a crown on it. "The hands were for friendship, the crown was for loyalty, and the heart was for love." Allegedly from a historical legend the ring is a powerful symbol of Irish love. It can be used as an embellishment for your wedding invitations as well as for the bride. Other traditional Irish imagery such as shamrocks, Celtic crosses, or illustrations from the Book of Kells are possible considerations. Embroidery is[..]
Peebles - Scottish Borders, Officially the Best Town in Scotland
Town information- The market town of Peebles - Scottish Borders with its estimated population of 8159 inhabitants is located in the local Government council of Tweeddale on the banks of River Tweed and Eddleston. Locals love boasting about the areas status as the best town in Scotland and second best town in the United Kingdom, as awarded by New Economics Foundation. The area played a significant role during the 1960's in the Woollen industry on the one hand, while present day Peebles on the other hand plays an imperative role as commuter town to neighbouring Edinburgh. Churches- St. Andrew's church founded in 1195, is the oldest building in town. Another magnificent ancient church in[..]
Halloween and the Celtic Samhain Origins
People often think of the celebration of Halloween as a pagan tradition, while quite literally, it's not. That's true as far as historians of Western traditions are concerned, because it's simply a contracted version of All Hallow Even. In other places, the event is called the eve of All Saint's Day, which takes place every first of November. What's your Halloween like? In many regions of the world, Halloween was the time for people to remember the souls in Purgatory. The souls in Purgatory were the souls in limbo; those who are awaiting final judgment by performing acts of cleansing. In Dante Alighieri's books, the souls in Purgatorio are individuals who are neither in Paradiso nor[..]

The May Day Holiday - Yesterday & Today
The May Day Holiday: From macho to floral: Flowers do more than feed the bees, butterflies and hummingbirds while they fill our eyes with riots of color after winters of gray and white, and offer fragrances that make us stop in our tracks. Some also fold and swell into fruits to feed us for months in the future. But strikingly, flowers can sometimes even transcend "macho." Take the ancient Romans, for example. Can you think of any culture quite so macho? Yet each May, they took time out to celebrate the return of flowers. And when they met up with the Celts, who were also honoring flowers in spring, the two festivals merged to continue the celebration for years to come. Long ago, when[..]

The Five Points of Wiccan Belief
Wicca is a very peaceful, harmonious and balanced way of thinking and life which promotes oneness with the divine and all which exists. Witchcraft is a spiritual system that fosters the free thought and will of the individual, encourages learning and an understanding of the earth and nature thereby affirming the divinity in all living things. Something we live by daily are: 1. The Wiccan Rede - harm none 2. The Law of Return - (aka the karmic law) what you do affects what happens to you. 3. The Ethic of Self-Responsibility - We make our own destiny, and set up most of our own "trials and tribulations". With this ethic you are accepting the karma or "stuff" you give yourself, good or[..]
8 Things You Should Know Before Casting Spells
Casting spells is a learning process for all of us old or new to witchcraft you will always be learing something new. Here are some things you should know when you start spellcasting. Make sure you have a need or reason to cast a spell. Usually if I think about it carefully, I find out that I don't really need to cast a spell at all. Or I think of a better way to word it, or I make my intent clearer. One: Always remember Magick should enhance life - not replace it. Two: Try the "Mundane approach first, if that fails, then try Magick, but perhaps there are valuable lessons to be learned that you will miss out on if you "zap" your problems away. Three: Perform Magickal workings only after[..]
Use Witchcraft To Bring Love Into Your Life
Love is difficult, uncertain and rarely obedient. It can also be wondrous, passionate and fill us with unparalleled joy. Is it any wonder, with all the things that love is, that those who practice magick are inevitably drawn to love spells? The clichéd notion of a love spell that overpowers a person's mindand forces them to fall in love with another is a far cry from the ways that modernwitchcraft is able to bring love into a person's life. The basic tenant of magickalpractice is summed up in the Wiccan Rede, "An ye harm none, do what ye will." Obviously, controlling the mind of another is potentially harmful to them, and soactual love spells are usually quite different from[..]
Teaching Tolerance
While listening to the song Empire by Qeensryche this morning it hit me. What are we teaching our children? Even as those of a very peaceful Wiccan path, what are we teaching our children? Are we teaching them tolerance and love for their fellow man regardless of race, creed or religion? If we aren't then we should be! I don't know how many of you that are reading this, have listened to this same song, but have you really LISTENED to this song? The words are eerie really. Our civilization is out of control in some areas yet we think we are doing so well at just modifying our behavior as it relates to mother nature. Have we thought about mother nature being here after we are gone? It is[..]
A Witch's Book of Shadows
A Witch's book of Shadows is many things. It is a combination of a how-to manual, a journal, a recipe book, a spell book and reference manual all in one. Every one of them is different, as different as the varied witches who write them. There are a lot of similarities between all these books, however, and that is what this article is intended to address. The Wiccan Rede and The Charge of the Goddess The Wiccan Rede, as well as The Charge of the Goddess are two pieces of literature that every witch is familiar with, and they usually include them in their books of shadows within the first handful of pages.

The Importance of Your Wiccan Name
A shift in your religious affiliation is a major life decision that affects all aspects of who you are and how you live your life. In many cases, the changing of religions also includes taking on a religious name of some sort. For example, when you convert to Wicca, your Wiccan name is meant to a representation of who you are and who you intend to be. To know a name is to know something, and to know something is to have the ability to influence it. For this reason, most Wiccans do not share their Wiccan name, or true name, with anyone that they do not trust completely. The choice of a new name is an important one, and not one to be taken lightly. There are quite a few different methods[..]

Chanting of Om & Effect on the person chanting Om
All beejamantra and mantras originate from it. It prefixes some mantras. It is representative of the Supreme God Principle (Parabrahman). Effect of continuous chanting of Om The energy associated with Om is of the unmanifest God principle (nirgun). The unmanifest energy of God is the same energy used to create the entire manifest (sagun) Universe. As a result a lot of energy is generated when one chants Om. Chanting of only Om can have adverse effects if the person chanting is of a lower spiritual level as he may not have the capacity to tolerate the spiritual energy generated from the chant. The following illustrates who can tolerate the chanting of just Om. The spiritual level[..]
Self Mastery - Oneness & Individuation
Oneness: The existence of a subtle energy web that interconnects all things. Individuation: Integration of human components and recognition of one's true self and soul path. Embracing the Dichotomy: I love the Yin Yang symbol. To me it is the single most significant and descriptive symbol representing the nature of the Universe and each one of its laws. Every primary Universal Law is contained within the Yin Yang symbol including "Oneness," which is represented by the encirclement of masculine and feminine crescents within. Together, black and white snuggle against one another inside the circle; they are one with the whole, on some level equal and balanced parts of individuality: day and[..]

The Art of Energy Enhancement: Meditation to Remove Energy Blockages, Negative Emotions + Bad Luck
ne seeks peace and harmony, because these are what we lack in our lives. From time to time we all experience agitation, irritation, disharmony, suffering; and when one suffers from agitation, one does not keep this misery limited to oneself. One keeps distributing it to others as well. The agitation permeates the atmosphere around the miserable person. Everyone who comes into contact with him also becomes irritated, agitated. Certainly this is not the proper way to live. One ought to live at peace with oneself, and at peace with all others. After all, a human being is a social being. He has to live in society--to live and deal with others. How are we to live peacefully? How are we to[..]

Energy Management Not Time Management
Think about how much time you have spent trying to organize and reorganize your time to fit everything in. Do you have charts and calendars set up to try to keep you on task? Maybe you have even taken a class or read books on time management that guarantee that you will reduce your stress and be able to accomplish everything you need to do each day. The truth is that managing time is not that easy. Primarily because time is finite and no matter what you do you can not change that there are only 24 hours in a day. With this sobering reality, there is a light at the end of the tunnel. Instead of focusing on time management, focus on energy management. Energy is renewable and you can build[..]

Spiritual - Inviting the Energy to Create Wealth
Our world is full of abundance in which we can have a happy and healthy life as long as we understand how. Life is meant to be lived with contentment, but there are times we forget this. Instead we look at the 14 trillion dollars which moves from hand to hand, and yet we never have enough money ourselves. We get caught up in the unfair and unhappy tidings of life in which we are slaves to the paper form of wealth. Despite money being a neutral entity we tend to consider it negative and a means for getting the material possessions we desire. Spirituality ignores these more complicated matters and offers us a base on which to live. We can ignore what we see as hypocrisy as long as we have[..]
