Hello All, I dont know much about Magic or of it's practices. I've been wanting to get into it. Specifically, Fire Magic...
I love Fire. The way it cracks, looks, burns, smells. I get enticed by Fire
Yea i guess it's not the BEST thing to love in your life but Hey!
so, yea. Does anyone have any advice on how to get into Fire magic? :? :?
-
Controlling fire is difficult and dangerous due to the very wild and unpredictable nature of it. I can't provide you with specific spells, but point you in the right direction. Nature magic would be your best bet rather than summoning or other dark magic. It utilizes influences and suggestive control over natural fire rather than creating fire. In other words, you manipulate fire created the natural way. I'll see what I can dig up for you. In the meantime do some self educating on it, because the more you know, the safer you can accomplish this
-
Alright. Thanks for your help.
I'm not QUITE sure what to look up but I'll give it a try
-
Nature magic and rituals. Start there
-
Will do.
BTW: Does all magic spells/rituals need certain items?
'Newbie Question I know' :doh:
-
no. Some of them just need intense focus or meditation, which, sometimes is the purpose of such items (to focus on)
-
Try joining the fire brigade or volunteer services.
You'll learn more about fire and its nature from people who live with it every day than from any book. By the way this isn't a joke answer. If you are serious about your quest then you should consider acting seriously about it.
Learn its secrets from people who really know it.
-
Alright Kain.
Thats a good idea bill, I'll see what I can do
-
try using certain woods in your ritual fires and solar magick can greatly perepare you for intense fire magick
-
Solar Magic?
Never heard of it.
Obviously has something to do with the sun :?
-
The solar magic I know of deals alot with energy storage and usage needed for spells and such. And yes, it is a very useful thing to learn. Too bad I can't get any use out of it :| In fact it would probally do more damage than good to me since you utilize the sun for recharging and strengthening your spells. Bah stupid burning moon!
-
I cant find a single THING on Solar magic.
And the only things i can find on nature magic are chants.and they dont even saywhat they do.
Why would solar magic hurt you?
-
yes why? i personally dont use because of my massive affinity with the moon and everyyhing sans fire but i dont think you could get seriously hurt during a solar spell backfire.
-
I think he's a vampire. :? <^>
But as I said. Cant find anything on Solar magic
-
I'll see if I can find it again. And yes it is because I am a vampire. Try looking for "sun magic" rather than solar magic. Or "drawing energy from the sun"
-
Just take your magic as you find out about it. I wouldn't reccomend starting with that right now. You need to keep a dream diary for at least a year. You need to understand yourself better than you do. Hope I was of help! www.spellsandmagic.com (http://www.spellsandmagic.com)
-
Thamk you kain. I'll search that.
-
Here's a couple of sun magic sites i found. A few are books for sale, but if you're really interested, might be worth the look.
http://www.llewellyn.com/bookstore/book.php?pn=J468 (http://www.llewellyn.com/bookstore/book.php?pn=J468)
http://www.faerywisdom.com/smindex.html (http://www.faerywisdom.com/smindex.html) <-- this one is more about focusing for your mind using the sun and moon, but I think its something you could benefit from. I don't agree with everything in there, but I tried the lunar cycling and it worked for me just fine.
http://www.ytown.com/oak/solar.html (http://www.ytown.com/oak/solar.html) Last decent one I could find. I had found a really good one once, but the domain has closed. I'll keep looking though.
-
Thank you very much.
EVERYONE! TY!
Srry No reply... I was on vacation :wink:
but, I'll look into those sites
-
If you want to control fire. Go back to the source of fire.
The elementals that controlled fire centuries ago were the mythical Salamanders.
So if you want to control fire search for those.
-
Salamanders?? :?
-
Salamanders were once associated with fire and fire magic because if you threw one in a fire it wouldn't burn for a bit because all of its goo and oils would protect it. Several groups and cults arose and bec ame a sort of religion. Other than that I don't know what he's talking about :?
-
I know, I guess you could say it was the personification of fire to people who started the legends of the Fire Elementals.
-
I kind of get it :| :?
Ty for the help though
-
Sorry I couldn't give you more info. :cry:
-
Its fine! :lol:
But Really... Thanks again everyone for all the info! I'm Swamped right now with School, So i'll check out all the sites and links when I can.
Thx again everyone :-D :evil:
