The belief that the name which you call yourself
contains the essence of your being and must be kept secret is very ancient. Many newcomers to Witchcraft choose a new but
secret name to symobolize their life as a Witch. The name can be chosen from many sources, including mythology, folklore or
from a favorite work of literature. It is best to choose a name that reflects the way that you think of yourself and about
Witchcraft or "the Craft" as it is commonly called.
Gematria is the proper term for the art of numerology. It is a form of divination.
The first step is to write down your name. The second step is to enter under each etter its numerical value as is described
in the following tables. Add the numbers together. If the sum is more than ten, add them together to obtain a single digit.
This is your name number. If you do not usually use your middle name or middle initial then omit it.
Many numerologists stress the importance of another number- the birth number-
which is obtained by adding up your date of birth. This is the number which most affects you, it has similar meaning to an
astrological symbol. It is the influence of the Cosmos that was given to you at the time of your birth, it may sometimes conflict
with your name number which means that there will be extra conflict in your life.

and revelation. They have a special message to give to the world. They have the same characteristics as nines. Twenty-two
is the number of the master. They have a super-human personality with all of the better characteristics of all the other numbers.
However, sometimes the genious and energy are used to become a supreme crime boss rather than an extraordinary leader.
Countercharm against the “evil eye”…
The “evil eye” is also known as glamour. A countercharm for the “evil eye” is a phallus.
The Encyclopedia of Witchcraft & Demonology: Rossell Hope Robbins
There’s just one more reason for me to have a $100,000 sex
change operation performed upon myself. I don’t have a penis or a phallus.
Matt. 7:21,22
For from within, out of the heart of men, proceed evil thoughts,
adulteries, fornications, murders,
Thefts, covetousness, wickedness, deceit, lasciviousness, an evil
eye, blasphemy, pride, foolishness:
You will notice that it clearly states that evil comes from the hearts of men and not women.
“You’ve wanted to be a boy since you were a kid.” Margaret Pluris
“You want to be just like me.” Margaret Pluris
Everybody wants to be a naïve felon. I can see them lining up
from here. NOT!

Place tobacco, sage, cedar shavings & charged quartz crystal
