    #152 - Kitsune Spell

    This spell should be able to give you said powers of a 'realistic' kitsune shapeshifter; of course within reason. (this spell may exclude the power of flying and immortality due to physical harm or even aging in some cases So this spell will not include the celestial or void elements to prevent most harm done by those who are power hungry and over powered.)
    You may need:

  • - A candle (fall oriented works best: Pumpkin spice, roasted marshmallow, etc.) (This will resemble your fox image.)
  • - a mirror
  • - (optional) Another candle, to represent which 'elemental' kitsune you choose to be. Remember, can only choose one type of element you wish to follow- You can always learn and practice to control your powers in the elements other than didn't choose; HOWEVER, you should be warned that even practicing with your own specially 'you' based element can be very dangerous, and shouldn't be taken lightly. It would be best to practice said element at your own speed and risk. (you'd only get these elemental powers from this spell with this candle.)
  • - Two plates of Abura-age/Deep fried tofu: (Happens to be the favorite food of both inari and kitsune.)
  • - Possibly music of Japanese background (for an increase of belief and chakras)
  • - A fox charm and/or Picture of the breed of fox you wish your fox form look like
  • - Extreme belief and magickal concentration (it is best to meditate or listen to kitsune subliminals before and after you attempt to do this spell.)
  • - A special necklace with real gems (This will be used to protect your new abilities and identity. you should pick a necklace that you can wear in water as well; to prevent rusting)
  • - a bowl of water
  • - Realistic goals when considering the use of this spell. Your main wish shouldn't be to prove to someone that you're a supernatural. This may put EVERYONE at risk. this goes for magick practitioners to other supernaturals. We don't want to start up the witch trials again you know!
  • - (Optional) Nighttime; just around midnight (This will strengthen the effects of said spell.)
  • - A full Moon phase. ( if you did not pick an element, you may still use the magick of the full moon.)
  • - patience. you are trying to break all normal standards by shape shifting and magick. it may take a while.

    Some Kitsune elements and abilities:

    1. Kaze (Wind) With this study, you should be able to create winds, cause tornadoes, and influence local weather patterns.
      This is also the element that manipulates ice and snow.
    2. Kasai (Fire) This is a kitsune's specialty. They can create fire, control fire, and cook meals.
    3. Chikyu (Earth) With this study, you should be able to move rocks, transmute minerals and physical objects, and build things.
    4. Kawa (River) This is a life-giving power. With this study, you should be able to control water, or control the creatures that live in water. you can heal others with this element, and bring life to things around them.​​​​​​​
    5. Umi (Ocean, Sea) This is a cousin to River, but to a larger scale. This is where a kitsune can cause very strong storms, flooding, and tsunamis. This is how mages conjure creatures from the depths.
    6. Yama (Mountain) Cousin to stone, this element allows for the control of the mountains, and those that live in it. With this, kitsune can cause earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, and landslides.
    7. Mori (Forest, Woods) This allows for the control and manipulation of wood, trees, and creatures of the forest. Those who study this element are almost druidic in their ability to survive and blend in with the woods, and can find herbs and roots to work salves with.​​​​​​​
    8. Sanda (Thunder) The cousin to Wind, this elemental kitsune can manifest lightning, cause storms, and create shields of energy.

    Step One: Light your fox's candle, play the calm Japanese music, open windows to let in the night atmosphere and moonlight, turn off any lights and look into the mirror. focus on your human facial features as the candle's fragrance begins to spread. Notice each dim outline of your face. the curves, the edges, the bumps, the smooth areas. Look at your picture or charm and hold it tight against your chest. Now, Close your eyes and sit underneath the moonlight. Imagine looking at yourself from another persons perspective. this time, you have a large tail with glistening supernatural glowing fur. is it white? Gray? Brown? Orange? Midnight black? keep a mental note of what you see. (Remember, usually gold fur is obtained when you've received your ninth to tenth tail. this spell starts you off with only one. it is up to you to work for your other tails.) Keep visualizing this silently, watching your first tail sway and swish in the air. can you feel the air against this new limb? can you feel it already there or is it growing? Is it made of the element you picked? Or is it made of fire? don't open your eyes until you can fully feel its presents in the astral plane.

    step two: open your eyes and place the necklace in the water bowl directly under the moonlight. Make sure the water is cold, so that it may soak the necklace in cool moonlight. Recite this chant once: Moon and inari, please hear my plea. i want to hide who i am, from those who don't understand me. With this moon charged charm, i ask to be, a human with the rest- so they cannot see. A Kitsune, a fox- i need a disguise. please cover my identity, so i wont meet my own demise. When i wear this chosen charm, My fox powers are at bay, until i'm in harm. Please keep my eyes from changing, and my powers from leaking, I am glad that you may hear my speaking. please bless this charm with such abilities. Thank you inari and moon, you both have been grand serenities.

    *Note:This necklace is worn to keep you from loosing control of your powers. you should wear ir when you plan to go out with other people, and only take it off when you are alone or possibly with other supernaturals and magick users who know what and who you are. Be Safe.

    Step three: Leave the charm in the water in the moonlight (you should keep it there all night so that it may be fully blessed or charged). Now, light your elemental candle. (It can be any color, as long as it symbolizes or reminds you of your element you chose. perhaps by scent, name, or color.)

    Now it is time to seal your wish by stating what you want to be. watch the fire dance on your element's candle. mesmerizing. take in a deep breath, and enjoy the music for a few seconds or minutes; however long you think would clear your mind. Now, focus on the goal. "to be a kitsune" What would you look like in fox form? IMAGINE and close those eyes. Watch yourself using and manifesting your powers. Watch your tail swish and twitch. Watch yourself dancing to music, your ears perking with each small base drop and tone. Watch yourself getting angry at some one, and your eyes change into a different shining color. what color is it? see yourself as a full fox, running through the forest, paws against the damp ground, running through a hallow log. Now, open your eyes again and look at the mirror. Recite this spell as many times as it pleases you. id prefer five times just to be safe. Spell: Dear inari, please accept all of me as a kitsune, i wish to be your messenger, to help others and serve you. I wish my eyes to be a glistening (Color visualized: natural colors will have a VERY high chance of working, and protecting your identity. like blue, brown, green, etc.) I will not regret the past, and i shall not harm others, unless i am defending myself or those around me. I ask to be a kitsune of (Element chosen) making my magical practice easier and swift. My tails earned through years and nobility, for now, please grant me one; its fur, shining in the moonlight a (visualized fur color or mix of colors). the bodily, mentally, and spiritually powers of the kitsune is what i plead to attain. thank you inari. blessed be.

    step four: Ooooh~ what's that smell? Oh! the fried tofu. pray to inari about anything i may or may not have left out of this spell, and ask the god to take up your offering of the first plate of tofu! wait a few minutes for the food to be offered. now... :3 eat and enjoy the plates of fried tofu my foxy friend! Be safe out there, and keep practicing your magic!

    Put all of the ingredients in the bowl except for the blood, moon water, corpse water, crossroad dirt, graveyard dirt, bat's blood, and locks of hair from you and the enemy. Don't mix yet. Now say this while adding your own blood while cutting yourself to the bowl:

    ~~~ With this knife I cut my ( hand,arm,wrist,finger,ect ) to draw thy own blood from inside of me!~~~ Now cut yourself in the area you just said. Then say: ~~~ With this blood I add to me the vampire that's locked inside of me. I add this blood to this bowl that's right in front of me. I am now becoming what I was born to be!~~~ Add the blood to the bowl that's sitting in front of you. Then say: ~~~ With this blood from thy own enemy I take what's mine from inside of ( Enemy's full name ) whose powers have wrongfully been used to hurt me. They are weak and I am strong I take what lies they have made of me. With this blood I control thy own enemy. They can not run and they can not hide from the power and anger that they've caused me. I now bind them to the darkness that they have come from. I own their heart and I own their soul. Now I add this blood to the bowl in front of me.~~~ Add the blood to the bowl. Now, say: ~~~ With thy own locks of hair I add to this bowl in front of me I now am starting the vampire transformation that I ought to be. With thy own enemy's locks of hair I forbid thee to cause any hurt unto me.~~~ Add the locks to the bowl. Now if you have the bat's blood say: ~~~ With this bat's blood that I add to this bowl in front of me I ask of the vampires to come and transform me.~~~ Add the bat's blood now if you have it. Now say: ~~~ With this Moon Water that I've made for thee. Oh Goddess of Darkness infertile Queen please won't you hear and answer my plea? Oh Goddess Hecate come to me. Hecate the Goddess of Crossroads and Queen of Witchcraft I invoke thee to come to me and transform me into your ( Daughter or Son ) tonight. If you can not come to me then please send me one of your children to come and bite me, so that I can become a ( Vampiress or Vampire ) of the night like I was born to be.~~~ Add the Moon Water to the bowl. Now if you have corpse water say: ~~~ With this Corpse Water I thank the corpse for helping me become a undead immortal vampire that I am meant to be. Let the spirit of the dead enter into this magical Corpse Water and bid me welcome as a being of the night. I welcome the lost souls to come and surround me in their welcomeing darkened unholy imbrace.~~~ If you have the Corpse Water add it to the bowl now. Now, say: ~~~ With this Crossroad dust and Graveyard dust I bring forth the spirits and lost souls of the dead to grant me thy praise and welcome as a new born vampire of the night. My transformation is almost complete, but I still have to write my name in blood and ink on a piece of paper that I have offered thee. Oh Goddess Hecate I thankth thee for loving and accepting me into your welcomeing arms thanks unto thee. Now, I thanks the spirits for helping me gain what's rightfully mine tonight. With this pen I write to the Goddess Hecate I write my name in full, I write my age, I write my gender, I write my place in which I live in full, I write my race in full, I write my hair color that I was born with, I write my true eye color, I write my ( Wiccan or Pegan name ) in full, I write my powers that I want as a vampire, I write my weight in pounds in full, I write my height I am right now, I write what I want to be ( Vampire ), I write three wishes that will be granted unto me as a vampire, I write what strengths and weakness make me as a new vampire, and I write my thanks to the spirits that have helped me. I sign my name in blood and in ink and I will never forget this night that changed me.~~~ Do all of that now while mixing the ingredients together. Then drink about four shollows of the mixture or drink almost half of the mixture if you like, but be warned that this much may just end up harming you greatly because of the blood, but be careful when using this high amount of the mixture. Don't forget to date the paper before signing in blood. Now after signing your name in blood draw a inverted pentagram on top of all of the words in blood from the mixture. Next, fold the paper as many times as you like and smear your blood and the mixture on top of the folded paper that doesn't have any words on that side if you can't then just smear it on top. You don't have to make a design with the smeared blood just smear it. Then, take the lighter and lite the paper on fire and let it sit on top of the mixture making sure it doesn't get too wet. Once the flame goes out on it's own stir the mixture again with the spoon. Next, dip two fingers into the mixture and lick it off your fingers making sure you get all of it off. Now, you drink one more sip of the mixture. Making sure to leave enough of the mixture to pour some on the ground where you are right now and pour some near your house. While leaving some to the Goddess and spirits as an offering. After, doing all of this then say: ~~~ Thank you Goddess and thank you spirits I bid you farewell and I bid thee part. Thank you all for doing your parts. By the power of three my will be done as tho wilt so mote it be! So mote it be!~~~

    And you are now done. go home and sleep and email me the side effects if there are any. Email me after doing this spell/ritual/potion and tell me what happened. Tell me what I can do to make this spell/ritual/potion better. Please and thank you. Bless it be.

    #159 - Comet's shifting method

    My (comet) PH+M+P shifting methods. May not work for everyone but it works for me.
    You may need:

  • reading comprehension
  • shifting ability
  • focus
  • Share

    (TAKEN FROM MY WEBSITE AND WEYR : http://phenexusweyr.wixsite.com/home )

    How to Ph-shift:

    (Comet's phantom shifting method)

    Step 1: Get into a comfortable position and close your eyes. Count to 50 while breathing in and out with every number. Start to meditate.

    Step 2: Once you're meditating and are calm, visualise the parts of your animal form (like horns, ears, tail, claws, etc.) forming on your body. Watch them pull themselves out of your body and exist. You should feel tingles and itchiness where the parts should be.

    Step 3: Feel the bones and joints of parts that have them, such as wings or your tail. Feel each joint and move it, you should feel as if you actually have a tail and it is actually moving.

    Step 4: The big part, visualise the rest of your body changing, like being covered in fur or scales, and feel every scale, every piece of fur, move and grow. You should be able to feel the fur/scales/etc move when you move.

    And there you go! open your eyes, see you haven't p-shifted, but you feel all the parts of your animal, and you've successfully phantom shifted.

    It is possible to phantom shift permanently, and cause permanent phantom limbs, however it can be detrimental to your mental state and energy.

    Comet's M-shifting Method

    To m-shift I use a rather simple (to me) method.

    This method has allowed me to m-shift and m-flare a few times. Most of my m-flares are spontaneous but this has helped bring one on before, and strengthen my instincts after ~2 years of pushing them away.

    Step 1 : Get into a comfortable position in a dark room and close your eyes.

    Step 2 : Count backwards from 100 down to 0, picturing the sun (your human thoughts, ideas, and rationalism) going down past the horizon and bringing on the night (your animal side, instincts, will to hunt). This step may take a while, but as you count down, push away human thoughts. if they come, count over them. After a while, the numbers should start to sound foreign as you think of your animal side and its instincts, and bring them out as the night begins to rise.

    Step 3 : Once you have reached zero and the numbers sound like pointless noises, let your mind take you to a new place. A forest, for example, if you're a wolf or a deer. In that new place, continue looking through your animal. Let your mind and instincts take you. Do you see prey? Chase it. Hunt it. Catch it. Run free, be free.

    You are an animal, not human. Be free.

    Comet's P-shifting Method

    My personal p-shifting routine, simplified as I don't know how else to really word what I do.

    Step 1: Get into a comfortable, animal-like position in a dark room.

    Step 2: Meditate. Visualise yourself laying there.

    Step 3: Mental flare and Phantom shift, just for the hell of it.

    Step 4: Tell yourself "I am a dragon (or, whatever your animal is)."

    Step 5: visualise your body changing and push all of your energy to each part. Feel everything. Know everything. This is natural.

    Step 6: Continue, keep feeling, changing, and pushing. Do not open your eyes.

    Step 7: When you feel as if you have p-shifted, open your eyes. Check your body for any changes, like discolouration, scales, fur, etc. If you find any, great, keep pushing next time.

    What are merfolk?

    Mermaids are semi-aquatic creatures, who are best known in sea tales and folklore. In a spiritual sense, merfolk are a type of fae, similar to faeries, elves, and water nymphs. In real life, Merfolk, despite having a scaled, fish-like tail, are mammals. Merfolk have adapted in many different ways depending on where they live, and merfolk shifters reflect this. For instance, a deep sea mer would be paler, have fangs,claws, and potentially bioluminescence, while a freshwater mer would have a darker, muddier tail to blend in with the murky opaqueness of a lake or river.

    Types of merfolk

    Akin to dragons, merfolk have different "breeds" or subspecies, based on where they live. This has forced them to develop certain adaptations. For example, an arctic mermaid would have a thick body and tail full of blubber to keep warm, and likely have the colours of a seal to blend in. Or, a tropical mermaid would be skinny but fast, ready to flee from any predator (if one were to attack).

    These are the recognised types of mermaids by the merfolk community.

    Deep sea merfolk

    Deep Sea Merfolk reside deep below the ocean's surface. Their bodies are shifted to be much stronger than a humans, being able to with stand great depths and water pressure, without their bones and organs collapsing. In appearance, these mermaids are not the beautiful like tropical and open oceans typically are displayed, they have fangs, and claws, to help catch and eat their prey : fish. The Deep Sea Mermaid is pale in colour, with little to no sunlight getting to the depth they prefer in the ocean. Their eyes are specialised to see in the dark. Many deep sea merfolk may also opt to shift bioluminescence, for further sight. For a tail, they need a strong fluke, to be able to swim great distances.

    Tropical merfolk

    Tropical Merfolk have much brighter and flashy tails, often green, pink, or even yellow in colour. These bright colours allow them to blend in with the tropical fish and the coral around them. They aren't built for swimming great distances, so their tails are more decorative and flukes are often not as thick as an Open Ocean. They dwell in shallower waters and often in archipelagos (like Hawaii or the Great Barrier Reef's islands), however a tropical mermaid may also live in the amazon or around South America. Their diet consists of sea plants, fish, and fruits, as they shift to and from their merfolk forms on the islands and for the water.

    Arctic merfolk

    Arctic Mers are built to withstand the beyond freezing cold and harsh waters of the arctic or antarctic Thick layers of Blubber are shifted to allow for proper insulation, and as a result many arctic mers are chubby or overweight, as they need to be to survive in their habitat. Tail colours may be white, silvery, blue, purple, or even black and white with counter shading to help blend in. Flukes and fins must be thick and powerful to swim through currents. Due to the Arctic being home to many predators (Killer whales, potentially seals, and even polar bears in the arctic circle), these mers must be adapted to be fast or know how to defend themselves against their hungry neighbours. An Artic Mermaid's main diet is fish. A "mermaid" with a seal-shaped tail is no longer considered a mer, but instead a Selkie, which are creatures with many other myths and legends surrounding them.

    Open Ocean merfolk

    Open ocean mers are adept travellers and live in, well, the open ocean. They are also often called Traveller mers (although, tropical mers may also be "tropical travellers") and they are not home to any specific region. An open ocean mer may live in anywhere from the British Isles to the outskirts of Madagascar, or they may travel between multiple locations. Open ocean mers are often strong and have blue, purple, or black tails. Their tails may employ counter shading as camouflage. Their flukes are often shaped like a whale's or a dolphins to help them travel long distance without much drag. While in theory an open ocean mer could travel across the seas, in reality this task would be impossible.

    Fresh water merfolk

    Fresh water mers are mers who have chosen to live in lakes and rivers. Mostly green, brown , black, or maybe even blue. Many fresh water mers actually look rather murky and dark, or shiny to match the fish in the lake. For example, a mer who wishes to live in a lake filled with koi may shift a koi tail for camouflage. Most lakes and rivers aren't very clear, and the tails are a camouflage to blend in with their environment. Often, fresh water mers do not shift gills and rather just come up for air every so often.

    Basic shifting method

    Merfolk follow one of the most widely known shifting methods, which is the four-step method. Many merfolk seek out shifting due to a "call to the sea" similar to how avians experience a call to the sky. Mermaids who don't have this call often do not shift or give up. Another thing some mers believe is that they believe their shifting ability comes from their otherkinity, their past life or lives as a mermaid, and not from their current genetics.

    The Fantasy or F-shift: in which the mer either designs their tail or finds the tail they had in a past life and draw it out or visualise it, making sure they know every thing about it.

    The Phantom or Ph-shift: Some merfolk skip this step, however almost all do not. This is when you visualise and feel the tail but it isn't there. Like a mental trick, this shift allows you to feel like you are p-shifted without actually being p-shifted.

    The Mental shift or M-shift: One of the most widely known shifts, merfolk use mental shifting to incorporate their mer side into their daily life, as once a mental shift is completed, it stays forever. M-flares are common and often drive the mer to run to water/attempt to p-shift even if they are not ready. Many believe that mental flaring is necessary for a successful p-shift.

    The Physical or P-shift: The final step, when the mer actually shifts their tail onto the physical plane. The rarest shift and only a few mers are believed to have completed it by the community.

    ​Estimates

    As i did for avians and dragons, I have conducted a few estimates based on my knowledge and using energy mapping.

    Average time to go through the whole merfolk shifting process: At least 1 year to four years

    % of people who give up after six months to a year: 74%

    % of people who give/gave up who do not have a call to the sea: 89%

    The following were found using energy mapping and cannot be proven, after all these are estimates.

    # of merfolk who are undergoing the shifting process: 31,790

    # of merfolk who have successfully p-shifted: 681

    # of merfolk who have run off to the sea: 71

    # of merfolk still alive at sea (not counting ones who may be "pureblood" and not shifters): 32
