Happy Yule @all

The winter solstice on December 21st stands for the reincarnation of the sun god through the Goddess. The altar is decorated with a white or yellow table cloth; a yellow or white candle should already be present. Incense consists of frankincense, oak or myrrh. We sacrifice bread and wine.

Yule is the celebration of the winter solstice and has been celebrated for thousands of years. The winter solstice this year is on the 21st December.

For 6 days at this time of year the sun appears to stand still on the horizon. It was a time of uncertainty and mystery as the ancients wondered if indeed the sun would return. When it did return, year after year, festivals grew up in just about every place and culture.

The ancients realised that the solstice was the longest night of the year. It was a time of celebration and rejoicing in the knowledge that soon the warm days of spring would return, and the dormant earth would come back to life.

As you know there are many different traditions when it comes to magic spells. We at wishbonix aim to provide you with enough insight into the different traditions and forms of magic… today we would like to teach you about Obeah Love Spells.

The Power of Obeah love spells

The power of Obeah love spells is extremely powerful yet not just anyone can perform these complex rituals.  It takes a mastery of sorcery to be able to perform this type of magic.  Obeah love spells are a type of African magic, similar to voodoo spells, but are not very well known because they have not been highly publicized.  Nevertheless, this makes this system of magic less corrupted by commercialism and without any stigmatism attached to the name.

The History of Obeah Love Spells

Obeah magic comes from the practices of Central and West African slaves who were brought to the Caribbean.  When missionaries came to the area, magic practitioners changed their ways to include Christianity in order to hide their original beliefs.   Over the years this mix of beliefs converted into what is now known as Obeah magic.  This type of magic is rather positive in nature as many of the spells are related to healing, love and luck.

Obeah Rituals

The power of Obeah love spells comes from different types of charms and other physical objects like talismans in addition to their extravagant rituals.  The most common form of this magic is by contracting different types of spirits, either negative or positive spirits from someone seeking guidance.  Other elements commonly used in Obeah magic are different types of organic herbs, body fluid, chanting, animal parts, minerals and even possessions.

The Mystery of Love Spells

The power of obeah love spells is still not widely known among the public as the traditions of these spells has been tightly guarded.  What is known is that the practitioner helps to carry the message.  This magic system cannot do any harm to the spell caster or the spell seeker.
