Basic Wicca 2 Lesson 2

Magickal Timeing

The Timing of spell work can be an important tool.
It helps to enhance the energy for a spell, and let
you know what type of energy is available on a given
time and day,at a given time. The simplest of timing
is if there is a need do it.

Then we get a little structured. Spell work for
Building things up is done between New and Full Moon.
Were spell work to remove or Banish things is done
between Full Moon and New Moon. and some stay with this
sort of timing, and the timing of need for most of their
spell work.

Their are time though when we want to know when the
energies around us are best for specific spells such as
Money, Heath, Romance excreta. Magical timing helps us
to work spells when the energies are the most ideal.
This is not to say that you cant cast a spell for healing,
anytime their is a need. It means the natural energies are
available to add a bit of UMPH to the spell. That is all.

Bellow are the tables That are used in Planetary timing.
Along with an explination on how they are use. Following
the tables will be an example on how to use them. Along
with some exercises for you to do.

Take the time to copy the following tables into your
Book of Shadows for future reference.

Planetary Energy.



Planetary influence has always Played a part in our lives
whether we were aware of it or not. In Magick, it is no
different. Planets rule certain aspects of our life.
Because of this it is good to know what areas of our life
are ruled By which Planet. Along with which Planetary
energy would enhance our Spell work. Bellow are the Planets
that have dominant energy, used in Spell work. Along With the
areas of our lives ruled by them.

Planet Rules
the Sun Power magick, health, prosperity, exorcism
the Moon Intuition, dreams, psychic ability, female fertility
Mars Courage, energy, breaking negativity, physical strength
Mercury. Divination, communications, knowledge, wisdom
Jupiter Happiness, luck, wealth, healing, male fertility, legal matters
Venus Love, sexual matters, marriage, friendship
Saturn Psychic ability, meditation, defense, communicating with spirits


Daily Planetary rulers



In Magickal timing each day of the week corresponds with a
specific Planetary energy. This is a list of weekdays and
their Planetary rulers, or influences.

Day of Week PLanitary ruler
Sunday Ruled by the Sun
Monday Ruled by the Moon
Tuesday Ruled by Mars
Wednesday Ruled by Mercury
Thursday Ruled by Jupiter
Friday Ruled by Venus
Saturday Ruled by Saturn


PLANITARY HOURS:



As each day has an overtone of a specific Planetary energy.
There are times in each day and night were Planetary energies
are stronger. These times are Planetary Hours.

Planetary hours are not the same as regular Daily Hours.
Divide the total time between Sunrise and sunset by 12.
This will give you the length of the Daytime Magical hours
for a specific day.

Divide the time from Sunset to Sunrise By 12 to get the length
of the Night time Magickal Hours, for a specific evening. The
hours for day and Night will be different lengths
except for the Equinoxes.

Llywellen’s Daily Planetary Guide, has Sunset and sunrise
tables in it. As dose the Farmers Almanac.

Using Magical Timing



Say I wanted to do a Spell to enhance my Courage. To find
the Magical timing I would first find out which Planet "rules"
Courage. I would Look at the correspondence and find it is
"Mars". Then I would want to find out which day of the week
is ruled By "Mars" by Looking at the Planetary Rulers Table,
and see it is "Tuesday".

Next I would find out on Tuesday which Planetary Hours were
Best for my Courage Spell, and would find in the Daytime hours:
it would be the 1st and 8th. For night time the 3rd and 10th
hours.

This is fine and good, but what time is that in Simple terms.
To find out that answer. I would then find out when the Sunrise
was for Tuesday and Wednesday, and when Sunset was on Tuesday.
For our sample day Tuesday Sunrise is 5:46 am, and Sunset is
8:15pm, and Wednesdays sunrise is 5:43 am.

From this I can determine there is 14 hours and 29 minutes
between Sunrise and Sunset on Tuesday. I divide that by
12hours and get 1 hour 12 minutes and 25 seconds (round the
seconds down if under 30)Which is, 1 hour 12 minutes = 1 daytime
Planetary hour . This show me that during the day on Tuesday
the best time to cast the Courage spell is between 5:46am and
6:58am or 3:22pm and 4:34pm.

To find out the best Night time hours we Take sunset On Tuesday
is 8:15pm and sunrise Wednesday is 5:43 am. Which is 9hours and
28 minutes divided by 12 = 47 minutes 25 seconds or 47 minutes
remember to round down if under 30 seconds). Tuesday evening
the best time to do the spell for Curare is between 9:26pm and
10:13pm or 3:17am and 4:04am.

Your assignment is to figure out the best time to do the
following 7 spells. The sunrise time for all days is 5am and
sunset for all days is 8pm for this exercise.

Love
Money
Healing
Intuition
Prosperity

e-mail me the Answers by Friday evening. Practice figuring
the Magical timming for the different types of spells, you would
like to do. Until you feel confident you know how to figure out
the timing,to add a bit of UMPH to your spell work.
