    Learn Magick (REAL magic) the Dangerous Way

    Welcome, in 2006 I started sharing my experiences hoping to attract opportunities to learn deeper magicks than the ones I’d encountered. It worked! I continued journeying, and along the way I kept writing. At this point Power Before Wisdom has helped hundreds of thousands of people learn magick.

    This site is a tool set. Magic experiences chronicled and shared to open the door to all of the crazy magicks that you’ve been told don’t exist and yet you have known deep within really DO.

    Burning Salt to Clear Energy, Banish Spirits and Remove Curses

    Clearing Energy
    Back in 1999 (before I could see auras or feel energy) a mage taught me a cool trick.  My aura and energy were a mess so he poured a cup of salt and a couple cups of rubbing alcohol into a pot and lit it on fire. As the concoction burned I noticed my back was relaxing and that I was generally feeling better.   In fact, the whole room felt better afterwards. He recommended I do

    Summoning, Blooding and Binding Spirits

    Summoning, Blooding and Binding Spirits.  The idea brings up images of dark energies surrounding persons presenting blood sacrifices late at night, to beings in chalked circles ominously lit by black candles.  To be honest that aspect does exist; however, Binding Spirits is not all shadows and pain.   The spirit world operates on a different set of rules than we do here.

    Living on earth is considered to be kinda a high point of existence.  Spirits tend to think

    Banishing Demons: What to do if you Summon a Demon into your life

    First off…  Let’s get rid of the mystique.  Unlike common beliefs of demons , God didn’t banish Demons from heaven. They did it to themselves. God/Source (Big G) is ALWAYS loving. Demons just aren’t accepting the love.  Thus Demons have decided to live the “hellish” existence of the illusion of

    Aura, Chi and Chakras... These three words are probably the most overused words in modern metaphysics.  Unfortunately these relate to three very real and powerful concepts so we'll have to risk the shame and mention them.

    How to Open your Third Eye

    Once upon a time, a little boy was born.  This little boy saw things that adults didn’t see. He’d watch a spirit push his Mommy and she’d get up to smoke a cigarette.   He’d watch his Sister’s Aura when she was scared and learn to get scared too.

    The Little Boy grew up.  Around age three he learned how to speak enough to start comparing what he saw to what other people saw.  It took him a while to learn

    The What, Why and Hows of Practicing and Crafting Ceremonial Magick Spells

    A few years ago I transitioned from a South American tradition (Umbanda) practiced in a very freeform style into an African tradition (Ifa) that was amazingly big on ceremony.  Ifa had ceremonies for cooking special meals, ceremonies for greeting, even ceremonies for getting ceremonial homework (Ebo)!

    When I first encountered Ifa, I was astounded by the power of the tradition.  I jumped wholeheartedly into the ceremonies and the AMAZING amount of work involved in the

    How to Start Practicing Magick

    I've had requests to start explaining things from the standpoint of someone who hasn't practiced magick or even read books on it.  If you want to practice magick, here is how I recommend you begin.

    Decide that you want to do this stuff consciously instead of unconsciously.  
    Every single human being is a Mage.  The question is whether or not you are going to choose to be a conscious one in this life or not.  Everyone does magick when they

    How, Why and When to Curse People

    Your ethics are up to you. Here are mine. I chose to come here and experience everthing I experience. If I allow someone to "hurt me" it's because I chose to experience it. If you walked over to me pulled out a shotgun and successfully killed me, I plan on stepping out of my body (If for some stupid reason I'm still IN it), accepting I'm dead, Letting go of separation mentality enough to understand why I chose to experience that and then...
