Tarot Weblog - Adam McLean 9 March 2015 I had a look at the origins for the St Patrick's Well tarot of Ertan Aktas. This well was built built at Orvieto in Italy in 1527. It was called the Pozzo di San Patrizio and was designed by Antonio da Sangallo the Younger to supply water to the city in the event of siege. The well takes its name from St Patrick because of its alleged similarity with the cave the Irish saint is believed to have used as a retreat for penitence and prayer. The ingenious design of the well uses two spiralling staircases forming a double helix going down to the water, built in such a way that those descending with their mules or donkeys would never meet those ascending in the opposite direction. The appearance of the well is evocative of the entry to Hell and it is this that Ertan Aktas has taken up as an inspiration for his tarot designs. 9 March 2015 Today I received the St Patrick's Well tarot created by Turkish artist Ertan Aktas. www.alchemywebsite.com/Tarot/art_tarot29.html
How to cast a circle How to Cast a Circle Find a quiet spot where you will be undisturbed. Face North and envision yourself in a dark green forest, fertile and full of life Call upon the Spirits of Earth, Guardians of the North, to guard your northern side. Face East and envision yourself on a high cliff with the wind blowing in your hair. Call upon the Spirits of Air, Guardians of the East, to guard your eastern side. Face South and envision yourself in a hot desert with the sun beating down upon you. Call upon the Spirits of Fire, Guardians of the South, to guard your southern side. Face West and envision yourself on the beach with a calm blue sea before you. Call upon the Spirits of Water, Guardians of the West, to guard your western side. Walk deosil (clockwise) around your circle, envisioning a shimmering line of fire rising to enclose it. As you walk, repeat, 'I cast a circle and erect a temple, a place between the worlds, where human and Divine may meet.' Honor the Goddess and invite her into your circle. Tips:
The Free Reading Network How to become a Wiccan or Witch How to Become a Wiccan or Witch Being a Wiccan or Witch is generally not something you are born as or just wake up one morning and decide to become. More often than not, you come across it by accident unless you were raised that way. Many find the philosophies of how Wicca and Witchcraft view nature are the same as the one's they currently hold. As Silver RavenWolf accurately stated in her book To Ride A Silver Broomstick. If you are one who has seen striking similarities between what you believe and have found here, there are generally accepted ways to increase your awareness and find communion with others who feel the same. Read everything you can get your hands on that will tell you more about the beliefs of Wicca and Witchcraft. While doing this, you will begin to form associations and hopefully find correspondances within yourself. There are no right or wrong answers and it is not a test. Most importantly, listen to your inner voice. This ritual should be yours and yours alone.
