Merrie Meet
I
want to begin this week’s post by asking a question – are we born having
magickal powers or do we learn them along the way?
My
own belief is that all wytches have some natural ability but if they acknowledge
it publicly that is another story……however that being said I also believe that
it is possible to learn such ability over time providing you practice
regularly.
Conversely
there are people who do possess these natural abilities but do not consider themselves
to be wytches at all.
Having
any sort of natural skills / ability will undoubtedly lead you to a better and
naturally enriched life provided you learn how to control them and not let them
control you.
I
am friends with a couple of empaths and I know that they feel so burdened by
having this ability that they often spend days in the house wishing that they
did not have it.
I
have had them say to me in the past that being empathic is more of a curse than
a blessing. To which my answer is that
they need to learn to control the ability.
So
what sort of powers / abilities can we possess or learn?
Weather
Prediction
There
are some wytches who are able to look at the sky and know that a storm is
coming even before there is a single cloud visible. There are those who can accurately predict
the coming of snow without even consulting anyone or any thing.
People
with these skills appear to have a deep connection to the sky and weather and they
might even be able to call on the rain, sun and snow.
Is
this skill a learned behaviour or a natural ability?
Green
Fingers
Helping
things to grow is a skill possessed by some people who follow “The Craft”. It appears not to matter whatever they plant,
it always seems to grow into a healthy, strong plant. It appears that what they put their hand to
will be green and full of life.
But
is this skill a natural ability or is it learned behaviour?
Vivid
Dreams
Another
ability of a natural wytch is the ability to dream and remember those dreams in
great detail.
It
is said that you learn things in your dreams that are far beyond whatever you
can learn in your daily waking life.
Sometimes you can even travel to other worlds while you dream.
The
much discussed subject of Astral Projection / Travel is (I believe), an ability
that can be learned and furthermore I also believe that it is possible to learn
how to have lucid dreams.
Healing
There
are many wytches who have the ability to heal not only themselves but other
people and animals. This healing can
come in the use of herbal remedies or they might even use energy healing (as I
do).
I
have always been drawn to this form of healing and as such have worked with
crystals, Reiki, meditative healing and occasionally with herbs.
I
only found out a few months ago that I carry the “Healer’s Mark” on both hands.
The
Human Connection
Sometimes
you can literally feel the physical feelings of other people or maybe you know
what emotions they are experiencing whilst talking to them.
In
certain cases you might also take on the energies of some of the people around
you which can lead to overwhelm and prove to be very emotional in certain
circumstances.
You
may find that you can literally hear other people’s thoughts or transmit your
own thoughts to another person. This
type of connection is often found among the natural abilites of a wytch and
they cannot be denied.
The
Animal Connection
Some
wytches experience deep connections with animals, they are able to communicate
with them and sometimes even manifest them.
I
personally know a lady who is a fantastic animal communicator and she also just
happens to be a wytch. She has a
particular affinity with horses, but works with domestic pets just as easily. I have experienced her work and abilities and
they are simply awesome!
There
are also times when animal connections will manifest – a wytch might think
about having a new pet cat and suddenly a stray cat shows up at their door.
If
these things happen then you probably have a natural animal connection and natural
wytch ability.
Psychic
Abilities
All
of the “clairs” - clairvoyance, clairaudience, claircognizance or
clairsentience are natural wytch abilities.
If these things are present in you then this list might help you
identify them
Clairvoyance
– you have the ability to see auras and spirits around people or things. You may also get flashes of images in your
mind’s eye when you meditate.
Clairaudience
– you have the ability to “hear clearly” when the spirits or gods are talking
to you. You may also be able to hear
other people’s thoughts.
Claircognizance
– you have the ability to “know clearly” which often means that you know things
without having to have them explained to you.
A common example of this is when someone is able to predict that such things
as car accidents are going to happen.
Clairsentience
– is the ability to “feel clearly” which often means that you feel in your
stomach or body that something is not right.
Some people refer to it as having a “gut feeling” often described as
having strong intuition
So
maybe now having read the above you will no longer question whether there is
such thing as a “natural wytch”.
Personally
I think that there is, but as always the final decision rests with you!
Blessed Be
ooooOOOOoooo
