Greetings all, this is officially my first column.
I hope that you will enjoy it and find something of
value to take with you. Being that this is my first
column you will have to bear with me for I am sure it
will develop over time. That being said, on to the questions
that were submitted.
Dear Lady True,
I have watched the Craft numerous times, and Practical
Magic a few times. Now I formed and coven of my own
to work with. We are doing magic and it works. I have
a question....is glamour (changing your appearance)
good or bad, and how would I go about doing it (if it
is good)?? Temporarily and permanently....
Sincerely,
Desperately seeking
Greetings Desperately seeking,
Firstly, the Craft and Practical Magic are not accurate
examples of Witchcraft. While some of the information
is correct there is more embellishment than truth in
them. Creating a Coven based on two movies is not the
way to go about finding ones spirituality. It's great
if those movies opened your mind and heart towards that
path but walking the path takes more than those two
movies can ever give.
Secondly, Glamour is not something that is in and of
itself, good or bad. It is a magical application with
no negative or positive overtones. It becomes "good"
or "bad" depending on the intention of the user.
Knowing this, you need to examine your motives and
intentions behind using glamour.
Lastly, I do not believe that glamour can be permanently
held. It would be too draining on the person creating
the glamour. If you really want to change your appearance
that badly, there are more mundane ways of accomplishing
this.

Dear Lady True,
I'm not sure what my path is, but I do believe that
everyone in the universe is connected through their
soul's energy and I have come to be able to sense this
energy. I'm writing this letter because I have found
my soul mate. Not only because the connection that I
feel is so strong that a feeling of pure love and euphoria
rolls over me every time I am near, but also because
I have had visions showing me that I am right. The problem
is that she has a boyfriend that I can sense is wrong
for her. Is there anything that I can do, spell or otherwise
to break them up because my heart will not let me be
near for fear that I might hurt her but it will also
not let me feel anything for anyone else because of
the purity of the love I feel for her.
Sincerely,
Joe
Greetings Joe,
I think it is a wonderful thing when one discovers
a soul mate. However, there are some basic things that
people misunderstand when they hear the words soul mate.
Firstly there are different kinds of soul mates, so
you have to discover whether or not this person is of
the romantic type for you. Secondly you need to realize
that just because you are soul bonded to someone does
not necessarily mean you are meant to be together in
this life. I know that the concept maybe very hard to
stomach but it is a truth many people have to deal with.
However, it does not mean you can not find love or be
happy(another misconception is that one can only be
happy with their one true soul mate) in this lifetime.
To address your second issue, of whether or not to
do a spell to separate this woman from her current relationship,
I would advise against it. You do not want her coming
to you against her will nor do you want to inflict magic
on her without her knowledge. Her soul and your soul
may have decided to live separately in this life and
it is a necessary for you to accept that. If you are
meant to be together in this life, it will happen of
its own accord.
In closing I would like to include a reading that applies
to Joe's question and hopefully will interest the rest
of you:
Reason, Season or Lifetime:
People come into your life for a reason, a season,
or a lifetime. When you figure out which it is, you
know exactly what to do.
When someone is in your life for a REASON, it is
usually to meet a need you have expressed outwardly
or inwardly. They have come to assist you through
a difficulty, to provide you with guidance and support,
to aid you physically, emotionally, or spiritually.
They may seem like a godsend, and they are. They
are there for the reason you need them to be. Then,
without any wrongdoing on your part or at an inconvenient
time, this person will say or do something to bring
the relationship to an end. Sometimes they die. Sometimes
they walk away. Sometimes they act up or out and force
you to take a stand. What we must realize is that
our need has been met, our desire fulfilled; their
work is done. The prayer you sent up has been answered
and it is now time to move on.
When people come into your life for a SEASON, it
is because your turn has come to share, grow, or learn.
They may bring you an experience of peace or make
you laugh. They may teach you something you have never
done. They usually give you an unbelievable amount
of joy. Believe it! It is real! But, only for a season.
LIFETIME relationships teach you lifetime lessons;
those things you must build upon in order to have
a solid emotional foundation. Your job is to accept
the lesson, love the person/people (anyway); and put
what you have learned to use in all other relationships
and areas of your life. It is said that love is blind
but friendship is clairvoyant.

Peace and joy to you all during this magical and wonderful
holiday season!
Many Blessings,
Lady True
