Proud to be a Witch by Lady Raven Avalon author of MAGICK FOR THE NEW WITCH & WICCAN - New Seekers of the Mysteries on the Path of the Wise By Lady Raven Avalon
another very frequently asked question in our coven email (blackravencoven@gmail.com)
QUESTION:
I get told all the time by people who claim to be Christian,You will burn in hell for your Satanistic rituals and Devil worshiping ways" First off, It's your Hell, you are the one who will burn in it for your hateful ways. Do any other pagans get lumped by ignorance and judgmental ways people who dont understand us?How do you all handle the slander, ridicule, religious discrimination and hate?
xxxxxxx xxxxx
Answer:
Merry Meet, many newcomers into the Craft of The Wise go through this ,too many preachers with condemnation for people with a different view. Firstly, we do not believe in Satan as he is an entity made up by the christian hierarchy to scare the ordinary folk and keep them in line. For a newcomer Wicca is a religion while Witchcraft is a "way of life" or a practice. The difference between these two arises from the goal they aim to reach.
The terms Black or White Magick really have no meaning. Magick in itself is a neutral force. It is how you use it that determines whether it is for good or bad. However, Witches bear in mind the message given in the Wiccan Rede and the Threefold rule; "What you do will return to you threefold"; hence, it is not advisable to actually work any harmful Magick.
The mission of our book MAGICK FOR THE NEW WITCH & WICCAN is to spread the truth and beauty about Witchcraft and Paganism. I want everyone to know our true history, our true practices and our true beliefs. I want to stop prejudice, bigotry and hatred towards and against all Witches and Wicca and any others that may share our similar beliefs. I want to spread the truth in order to bring the Craft back to its proper place in today's mainstream religions. I enjoy awakening the spark deep within beginners and awaken the sleeper.
As a Witch you will learn to honor yourself, know thyself and live a Magickal life and incorporate Magick into your daily life. You will learn to have a strong moral foundation and treat treating everything in this universe in a loving manner. Finally, as a Witch you will learn to understand these words "do as you will but harm ye none", the criteria for all your actions and your intentions.
I am a Witch and I am proud to proclaim it,the Goddess helps me and comforts me in adversity,Stand Tall and worship Her at all times,Walk in the light and you will never go astray.
Blessed Be Lady Raven Avalon

learning Witchcraft by Lady Raven Avalon Black Raven Coven - Full Moons
According to the Farmer’s Almanac, there are typically twelve named full moons every year. The exception to this is, of course, the somewhat rarer Blue Moon. Those twelve named full moons are:
January – Wolf Moon
February – Snow Moon
March – Worm Moon
April – Pink Moon
May – Flower Moon
June – Strawberry Moon
July – Buck or Sturgeon Moon
August – Fruit or Barley Moon
September – Harvest Moon
October – Hunters Moon
November – Beaver Moon
December – Cold or Long Nights Moon
Since the Lunar cycle is only 29 days and our modern calendars have 30 or 31 days in a month, the dates of the full moon shifts from year to year, and occasionally allow that colorful Blue Moon

Ravens: In Magick by Lady Raven Avalon author of MAGICK FOR THE NEW WITCH & WICCAN - New Seekers of the Mysteries on the Path of the Wise By Lady Raven Avalon
Raven's Knowledge" was applied to the human gift of second sight. Ravens are known around the world as shape shifters. The raven symbolizes wisdom, hope, longevity, fertility. In Magick the raven represents change, metamorphosis and mystery. The raven is symbolic of mind, thought and wisdom; unveiling of inner depths ,
Lady Raven Avalon
***To invoke Raven as bird of prophecy, you can use the old English rhyme used to interpret omens by the number of ravens, crows, or rooks seen in a flock:
One for bad news,
Two for mirth.
Three is a wedding,
Four is a birth.
Five is for riches,
Six is a thief.
Seven, a journey,
Eight is for grief.
Nine is a secret,
Ten is for sorrow.
Eleven is for love,
Twelve - joy for tomorrow. *** http://www.druidry.org/obod/lore/animal/raven.html

THREEFOLD LAW OF RETURN by Lady Raven Avalon
Merry meet may I introduce our new members to our Coven & book (Black Raven Coven) which is for new witches & witches (new seekers of the mysteries of the Craft of The Wise) and this week we will be discussing in our group on Facebook THE THREEFOLD LAW OF RETURN
link to facebook:
http://www.facebook.com/group.php?gid=154448994580258
When you learn and talk to other Witches about ethics in Witchcraft, you will hear them refer to the Law of Three. The Law of Three explains the results of actions. The Threefold Law of Return is not just a "Witch" belief, it is very similar to the Hindu and Buddhist principles of Karma.
Karma simply means:
"Whatever malevolent or negative actions you carry out will return to you with three times the force; whatever energy you release, you receive it back to yourself thrice the amount.”
The Law of Three, also called the Rule of Three, is the concept that everything you put out returns to you Threefold. This rule applies to physical action, Magickal action and everyday life.
“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you"
Is the most simple explanation of the Threefold Law of Return.

“The only new book a New Seeker or Witch will ever need!”
Our Facebook group is formed on the basis of a book published by Lady Raven Avalon and members of Black Raven Coven. With so many newcomers or New Seekers looking into the Craft of the Wise, Witchcraft and Wicca and with so much misinformation about our beautiful path, we felt it was our responsibility to write the truth about our ancestors and neo-paganism.MAGICK FOR THE NEW WITCH & WICCAN - New Seekers of the Mysteries on the Path of the Wise By Lady Raven Avalon - Black Raven Coven- ISBN 978-1-4466-2345-9

MAGICK FOR THE NEW WITCH by Lady Raven Avalon - the only book a new witch or wiccan will ever need (freya lavey)
MAGICK FOR THE NEW WITCH & WICCAN
New Seekers of the Mysteries on the Path of the Wise
Co written by the members of Black Raven Coven
By Lady Raven Avalon & Black Raven Coven - release date 25th Feb 2011
amazon.com - barnesandnoble.com - any good outlets
The The mission of my books are to spread the truth and beauty about Witchcraft and Paganism. I want everyone to know our true history, our true practices and our true beliefs. I want to stop prejudice, bigotry and hatred towards and against all Witches and Wicca and any others that may share our similar beliefs. I want to spread the truth in order to bring the Craft back to its proper place in today's mainstream religions.
In this book, which deals with rituals for the beginner, you will find the information which will help you to get started to understand the fundamental principles of Magick for beginners. In time, you will understand enough of the basic principles of
Wicca or Witchcraft for you to begin to search for your path, the path that best suits your individual needs.

another very frequently asked question in our coven email (blackravencoven@gmail.com)
QUESTION:
I get told all the time by people who claim to be Christian,You will burn in hell for your Satanistic rituals and Devil worshiping ways" First off, It's your Hell, you are the one who will burn in it for your hateful ways. Do any other pagans get lumped by ignorance and judgmental ways people who dont understand us?How do you all handle the slander, ridicule, religious discrimination and hate?
xxxxxxx xxxxx
Answer:
Merry Meet, many newcomers into the Craft of The Wise go through this ,too many preachers with condemnation for people with a different view. Firstly, we do not believe in Satan as he is an entity made up by the christian hierarchy to scare the ordinary folk and keep them in line. For a newcomer Wicca is a religion while Witchcraft is a "way of life" or a practice. The difference between these two arises from the goal they aim to reach.
The terms Black or White Magick really have no meaning. Magick in itself is a neutral force. It is how you use it that determines whether it is for good or bad. However, Witches bear in mind the message given in the Wiccan Rede and the Threefold rule; "What you do will return to you threefold"; hence, it is not advisable to actually work any harmful Magick.
The mission of our book MAGICK FOR THE NEW WITCH & WICCAN is to spread the truth and beauty about Witchcraft and Paganism. I want everyone to know our true history, our true practices and our true beliefs. I want to stop prejudice, bigotry and hatred towards and against all Witches and Wicca and any others that may share our similar beliefs. I want to spread the truth in order to bring the Craft back to its proper place in today's mainstream religions. I enjoy awakening the spark deep within beginners and awaken the sleeper.
As a Witch you will learn to honor yourself, know thyself and live a Magickal life and incorporate Magick into your daily life. You will learn to have a strong moral foundation and treat treating everything in this universe in a loving manner. Finally, as a Witch you will learn to understand these words "do as you will but harm ye none", the criteria for all your actions and your intentions.
I am a Witch and I am proud to proclaim it,the Goddess helps me and comforts me in adversity,Stand Tall and worship Her at all times,Walk in the light and you will never go astray.
Blessed Be Lady Raven Avalon

Daily Devotional by Lady Raven Avalon
Daily Devotional:
Snowdrops and bluebells mingle
with nature's dawn
A slow tally of divine miracles
All elements combine
Like an ever-flowing stream
Enveloped in birdsong
I exult in the ever turning
Wheel of the Year
In the low setting Sun
powerful, in deep peace
My spirit at one
with the cosmos
I am here
In this moment
My future's a deep haze
of unchartered years
Following the movement
of the Wheel of Life
I know a deep contentment
that embraces me
Within the Divine God and Goddess
Always There
Always Will be
Overseeing the turning of
the great Wheel of Life

MAGICK FOR THE NEW WITCH & WICCAN by Lady Raven Avalon & Black Raven Coven: Beware of Fakes on the Internet who try to sell you Self-Initiation....To any real Witch this is sickening: Example
I am asking true Pagans to answer this email I received. I have answered personally and have posted my reply below. This disgusts both our Coven members and me totally that people are trying to rip-off others and is the very basis of why our Coven wrote our book. MAGICK FOR THE NEW WITCH & WICCAN
QUESTION:
XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX27 February at 03:38 Report
merry meet, my lady Raven Avalon...i am XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX from xxxxxxxx....i chose to send you a message because i am not sure some would understand....
I have with me some graveyard dirt, and the water bath, with red wine, that symbolizes my blood bath for i had decided i wanted to be a vampire witch...but things went berserk and i was not able to finish my quest....i dont know what i'll do with them, but i still have them...only the graveyard dirt was exposed on sunlight....
I really dont know where to begin with again for i cannot reach the person who taught me....who, I will not tell if you wont mind....i'd like to keep him private....i told him my hearts intent so he tried his best thru the internet to ''initiate'' me....
........... (this email went on a little)
I do hope to hear from you....pardon me for being so bold in sending you a message ....
The person knows this is being posted as I would like true witches to show them their reply
my reply is below
Lady Raven Avalon
ANSWER:
MY REPLY:Raven Avalon 27 February at 13:02
Merry meet
This sounds to me that this Mentor was not true. It is exactly for this reason that we as a coven wrote our book Magick for the New Witch to expose those who tell people lies.
In our book t.here is a self initiation section which is true and read and if you decide to follow the black magick path it is your choice. Magick is magick and has no real color it is up to the user how, after learning the basics of spells, magick rituals and self initiation what their own path is in the Craft.
With regard to your being initiated on the internet this is absolute nonsense. Also anyone who asks you for money should be exposed as a liar and an untrue witch.
If i were you Ii would forget you ever met this person and start at the beginning and learn correctly. Initiation into the Craft or to become a Witch or whatever ..you do not need any graveyard dirt. Throw all of this stuff away as it is useless and a hoax.
The most important tool in your Magickal Witch kit is yourself. People on the internet tend to sell you expensive things when simpler ones work just as well.
Learn the basics first is my advice
If you are having problems email me and dont listen to any more fakes.

EASY: Protection Spell Against A Person Who Wishes You Harm - For newcomers into the Craft of The Wise by Lady Raven Avalon
EASY: Protection Spell Against A Person Who Wishes You Harm
For newcomers into the Craft of The Wise YOUR MAGICKAL TOOLS:
To become a witch or to follow wicca traditions these are the core values that all must learn prior to studying the Path of the Wise which is a life-long journey and a road that will fork in many directions before you make a choice of which path to follow
Know Thyself
Believe
Your Intent
Your dedication to the vocation of the Craft path
Your respect for all things seen and unseen
Your respect for those who have studied the Craft path for their experience and devotion to knowledge
Your dedication to the God and Goddess
and, your deep appreciation to our Ancestors
HARM YE NONE
from the teachings of Lady Raven Avalon
This is for Maria:
Light x1 white candle
Light x1 black candle which represents the negativity of the person who wishes to harm you
Light Frankincense incense
If you have a photo of the person place it in front of you – if not visualize your intent on returning the harm they wish you
Sit and meditate for about 15 minutes on the person who wishes to harm you
Focus your intent on the spell and the outcome you wish to achieve
Call on the God and the Goddess to guide you to Harm Ye None
When you are ready chant the following:
By the power of three
I return to thee
Your acts of malice and negativity
Your words and actions
I send away
By the power of three
They hold no sway
All your actions of hate
return threefold and decide your fate
My God and Goddess
I promise thee
I shall harm ye none
So Mote It Be
Allow the incense and the candles to burn out of their own accord. If you have a photo and cauldron then set the photo alight with the black candle flame, place in your cauldron and watch as the smoke burns up their hex.

Black Raven Coven by Lady Raven Avalon High Priestess
- A Coven is a pool of knowledge and experience that all members can draw from. Covens are groups of spell casters who gather together for a common purpose. They are led by either a High Priestess or a High Priest, or in some cases both. This coven is led by High Priestess Lady Raven Avalon. At the core of Black Raven Coven lays spirituality- what most people refer to as religion. The religion of the Craft is earth honoring, earth respecting, recognizing a dynamic creative balance at work that we term the Goddess AND the Horned God, and is experiential. Black Raven Coven is here for the sole purpose of facilitating learning, friendship, and growth of its members. We welcome any who wish to learn, teach, grow and share. Despite the name, our members are not only Witches-we have Wiccans, Hoodoo practitioners, magicians, warlocks, spiritualists, and many more Paths represented.
