Comments on: Is it possible for a wiccan or a pagan to affect or control another person’s thoughts or feelings? http://www.paranominal.com/spirituality/wiccan/9521/is-it-possible-for-a-wiccan-or-a-pagan-to-affect-or-control-another-persons-thoughts-or-feelings.html All Things Weird, Strange and Slightly Unimportant Sun, 21 Mar 2010 20:17:25 -0700 http://wordpress.org/?v=2.9.2 hourly 1 By: Nekhtet http://www.paranominal.com/spirituality/wiccan/9521/is-it-possible-for-a-wiccan-or-a-pagan-to-affect-or-control-another-persons-thoughts-or-feelings.html/comment-page-1#comment-56098 Nekhtet Sat, 27 Jun 2009 23:28:21 +0000 http://www.paranominal.com/spirituality/wiccan/9521/is-it-possible-for-a-wiccan-or-a-pagan-to-affect-or-control-another-persons-thoughts-or-feelings.html#comment-56098 Can they possibly do it? Yes...except for that dream bit. No. However, most of us follow the Law of 3 or some sort of variant. Basically what we put out we get in return. So say I do a love spell on someone. That person doesn't truly love me. Then perhaps they become obsessive. I at some point realize that this person isn't "the one"...now I can get rid of him/her because of my poor choices. Outside of a couple of binding spells (which was to keep another person from harming others) I don't do spells on others. It bends someone else's will. It is pretty much a form of rape if you think about it. I wouldn't want to be treated that way so I wouldn't do it to someone else. Unfortunatley there are unscrupulous people out there who claim to be Wiccan (and anyone can make that claim although its deceitful) and do such things. But they are far and few between. If someone has threatened you with a spell or potion...take it with a grain of salt. Not all spells work, the Universe sometimes decides for us what we can and cannot do. On top of that if they are threatening you they just want to scare you into thinking they have power over you. You can only give away your power....if you don't beleive they can put a spell on you, they can't. Can they possibly do it? Yes…except for that dream bit. No.

We don't make love potions, we don't do any of that kooky stuff. Our rituals and spells are our equivalent of Christian prayers. And anyway, most Wiccans follow both the Rede and the Rule of Three, so we don't seek to harm anyone, because it'll come back at us tree times as worse. I'm afraid we are not like that at all.

The pagans I know would do this through a spell and would be considered a curse if the dreams were negative. However, none I know would do that as they fear retribution would make a payback three times worse. Yes, depending on what you believe this could happen.

It is a fundamental effect - and the entire purpose - of communication. Spells would be an ineffective way of doing it. Anybody can affect anothers thoughts, emotions and dreams.

They're pretending and trying to scare you. If they really have powers and want to help people then why don't they? There's plenty of sickness in the world and storms that arises daily which take people's lives. Why don't they help. Well, we know the answer is because they can't. They are simple satan's puppets.

When a person in the "right mind" uses spells, meaning one who is not angry or vindictive at the time, it is for themselves towards themselves, not another. They would for example enable themselves to be more confident and perceptive rather than make another do something like notice or love them because if done correctly, all that follows into place,..naturally.

Probably that connection will be simple (an emotion, a simple thought, making someone remember you.) As for affecting other people's feelings, standard seduction methods work better. I'm not a spell fan. You can theoretically bend another person's will, but I don't think that would work. Love potions? You mean waiting until she's somewhat drunk to make your move? :P Love potions don't work.
