Thanks for the info Leeneia..LOL.

What a bloody day.
The 2nd free spell is a doozee. Do not try this at Home or in the Park or at the Bus Stop or in your car.

It is a spell called the BBB special. (what the heck is that I hear some of you say!!?)
Let me take you back, way back, to last night. After my Tea I thought ah feck it, let's give this freebie spell a spin and see if it can fly.
So I followed the instructions in my email and wampamaloompa! There it was, floating in front of me. The one, the only (and the rather large I might add)..... BumperBlissBubble.

It was a wonderous sight as it went floating around my sitting room. After what seemed like oh, 10 seconds or so, the beautiful bubble descended from the ceiling and settled over my head and slowly wrapped it's bubbley stuff around me till I was , for all intents and purposes, trapped inside it's blissfullness.
Immediately a feeling of rapture came over me. Very nice says I. Oh everything seemed so well... bloody blissfull, like floating on Cloud Nine. ( although I must admit that I have only experienced Cloud 5 so far but I imagine this is what like Cloud 9 might be like)

My telephone rang. I answered it. Jane Doe (name changed to protect the innocent) my friend,was calling me to tell me about an verbal disagreement she had just had with her new close "friend". She was very upset. Me. I couldn't have given a rat's arse about how she might be feeling. I was in seventh heaven. I was so wrapped up in the Bliss Bubble that eventually poor Jane just hung up on me. Now over a period of say an hour my telephone rang 4 or 5 times. These calls being from People I know well and who are, or have been. going through that most Human of all experiences... Life and all that goes with it. Did I care? Did I feck.
There I was sitting in my Bliss Bubble. Strange thing though, as the power of the spell wained I found that being Blissed out ain't all it's cracked to be.
I was looking at the TV and the News was on and thought, huh, I don't care, but you know what. I did really.

Just as well blissfullness/rapture/ecstacy ect are mearly temporary feelings I can tell you.

I have decided not to post the 2nd freebee spell Mary. You don't need this stinkin spell, none of us do. I like Life, warts and all (well hair now actually since I used that weird tincture but you can shave hair off unlike warts ~ ouch!)
So you will all be (well some of you will be) happy to know that I am back to my old slightly abnormal self. To those that have been damaged during the time I was under the influence of this freebee spell I offer my sincere apologies...oh and I miss you Jane Doe (you know who you are). Call me..Pleeze...Pretty Pleeze.

So Alba's been dropping acid?
She's holding out on us. Spill the beans, Alba or we will join on our own. I want the spells and the secret code ring and the badge.
Rules from Micca.
Phony spells from Alba.

I have watched every single idiotic episode of Charmed and not a single usable spell. Theirs are all mediocre dactylic hexameter. Half the time they don't rhyme or work.

Harry Potter's latest book is missing the Spell pages. It's a plot.

Before Gardner the only rule was

'Do what thou will be the whole of the law'
The rule of three is a sop to make 'muggles' sleep easier. They think we can't get away with anything really nasty that way.

The old meaning of Warlock is 'Breaker of oaths.' so yes its an insult to an old one.

Just a thought...we have Mudcatters all over the world. If we all performed the spell at the same time in carefully planned locations might we not envelope the world in good will and end all warfare and unhappiness? Or would everyone just not notice?

Date: 25 Jul 07 - 11:08 AM

Actually, Greenman has a point. Search witchcraft on the internet and you'll find one "authority" who traces it back to the Bronze Age. Another proclaims that witchcraft started with the Celts. Can any coven today trace its roots back more than ten generations? And who made the rules?
When did the Rule of Three come into acceptance and why and by whom? Who formalized the ceremonies? What got left out in the process? What were the Christian influences?
As with all modern belief systems, witchcraft has evolved. Just imagine the nonsense that little girls who watch and believe Charmed are practicing and passing on. Imagine the influence Harry Potter is having on the Craft.
Then remember what started this thread. A company who sells everything from face creams to fishing rods is offering membership in a Witchcraft Club with two free spells as a come on.
By the way, Alba, I want those spells!

I personally wouldn't want to risk the outcome by going against the Oath Kat and I ain't that brave (or should that read stupid?) enough to try ignoring 'Harm Thee None' to see what happens either.....eeeeeek!
You know Sins I think you are onto something.
Maybe not a Univeral "bliss" spell, as that would only be an artifical very temporary state. What is needed is something lasting. MMMM...now THAT is something to think about today. I am going to check into courses available at the OPU this afternoon.
More later.

Good Question Mary...! One that could lead to the opening of a big can of wormees which I refuse to get the can opener out for..lol

Micca is correct about one of the source's where the "essence" can be found but that would be Black Market Essence of Scottish Nutter, bloody potent stuff and let me tell you there is no better place to find the most powerful of this essence than at the Saracen Head Pub in Glasgow (or as the locals call it 'The Sarry Heid' pub).
There is a lady that lives in the pub. She is called Maggie. She has been there for oh, a few hundred years (even moving location with the pub)..Maggie will put your right on the 'Essence'...

Now what with it being Friday, I have a few things to do. I shall however return later this evening with some news from the OPU and the info on the fall courses available.

Eh, I tried the 'Spell' spell Leeneia, but maybe my dizzylexia posed a problem...my Horse has turned into a Weasel. Any ideas on reversal!

Dumplings and grumblings don't rhyme. No wonder the SPELLing spell didn't work for you.

Weasel back to horse:
First,
Drop L; Then drop E so it
Changes WEASE to WEAS
Change WEAS to WOES
Add back E
Change WOESE to WORSE
Change WORSE to HORSE.

Unless, of course, you want a horse of a different colr. That is covered in the Advanced Course.

With MY tongue in a similar position, the lyrics Couls Be read as describing ingesting a Halucinogenic, such as Amanita, Peyote or datura, or even Ergot!!!

"That Old Black Magic"

That old black magic has me in its spell, that old black magic that you weave so well.
Those icy fingers up and down my spine
That same old witchcraft when your eyes meet mine.
The same old tingle that I feel inside, and then that elevator starts its ride
And down and down I go, round and round I go, like a leaf that's caught in the tide.
I should stay away, but what can I do?
I hear your name and I'm aflame
Aflame with such a burning desire that only your kiss can put out the fire.
For you're the lover I have waited for, the mate that fate had me created for.
And every time your lips meet mine, darling, down and down I go, round and round I go
In a spin, loving the spin I'm in, under that old black magic called love.
Music Harold Arlen, lyrics Johnny Mercer

My heart says 'Yes Indeed' in me
Proceed with what you're leading me to"

Serious question:
If you had to choose between Glinda, the Good Witch of the North and the Wicked Witch of the West, who apparently had no name, which would be your companion?
It would take me all of three minutes to get annoyed enough at the smarmy Glinda to bitch-slap her back to Munchkin Land.
