firstly a word of warning there are many people that practise magick without using any form of protection

 which can be dangerous depending on what it is your doing

 im not saying this because i think i know everything because i dont infact the more i learn the more i realize i know nothing

 im writing this so that people practise it safely i should also mention anything that is done magickally will come back to you so if you do positive things you will get positive in return

and if you do things negativly you will get negative back the followers of wicca call this basic principle the wiccian rede except they believe that you get back 3 times what you do

 from what ive read "most" druids have a bit of a different view on this they try to maintain neutrality that is doing both positive and negative to stay in balance with nature

if you want some protections straight away there are some good links in my spirituality links section

 expesially the spirit online site is good for beginners and more advanced people

 i will put down some of the protections that i use which i have made up from different protections i have read about some people think this takes away the power of the protection but i disagree

 however anything to do with magick if you make it your own it has more effect

i have been reading about witchcraft for over 6 yrs and about druidism for about a year and only practising for about a year i mostly do healing and protection spells

 ive self taught myself reikii and also pranic healing and i usually do a combination of both of those and sometimes other visulizations depending on the situation

 my main protection visulization i use goes like this i first see green energy rising from the earth(thus the godess)

 then i see blue energy coming from the sky(thus the god) i then see this energy meeting together above that which i am trying to protect and joining to becume white light

 i then see the white light tracing a pentagram over the thing im protecting and from the circle i see the white energy going down in a cylinder shape down the thing im protecting and underneath it

 thats about it there are more simple ones on the site i mentioned earlier but that one works effectively for me
