Wind

[rawrTigress]

It's quite a windy day today. The wind is coming from the east and is inspiring me to do some magick dealing with new beginnings. (which is appropriate for where I am at right now) Does anybody have any wind spells in general that they would like to share?

Charge a feather with your intention and tie it very very loosely to a kite. Fly the kite 'til the feather flies off and carries your intention to the Winds.

Thank you, I love the concept.

I know the Greeks had gods for the winds, I'm not sure if you'd want to include them or anything?

I also found this small summary of wind magick: http://www.thewhitegoddess.co.uk/book_of_shadows/illuminati/wind_magic.asp

And the FAQ here as a small entry for weather magick threads, might be helpful?

Thank you for the links. They are extremely helpful. I'll do some meditation with the new information.

You're welcome :)

Here's some Orphic hymns too:
LXXIX: To the North Wind (http://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/hoo/hoo84.htm)
LXXX: To The West Wind (http://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/hoo/hoo85.htm)
LXXXI: To the South Wind (http://www.sacred-texts.com/cla/hoo/hoo86.htm)

Thank you again. I like the idea of working directly with the winds and their names. I feel powerful spells brewing in my thoughts. I'm really connected to the Greek pantheon so this will be a great way to add depth to my practice.
