Now I wanna start off by saying I may split each of my topics into their own thing. I’ll dedicate say a week to one topic or a couple days to another. That way the information stays organised. It takes me time to write long posts that are informative and worded correctly when it comes down to me explaining things. Let me know what you guys think. I’m going to start with Lycanthropy, so here’s the first post. Enjoy.
Introduction to Lycanthropy
Lycanthropy is quite an uncommon form of magick. From what I gathered on this site, very few practice it, nor are there many topics about this form of magick as there are on subjects such as Vamprism or spirit communication.
My views on Lycanthropy are that it is a tool, and a weapon to use with wisdom and knowledge. Otherwise not only could it potentially harm you but it could very well harm someone else in the process. When I apply Lycanthropy to my Practice or daily life, I use it mainly as a tool. Never a weapon. Now you wont physically change into a wolf. But you can astrally and you will mentally. It’s more energy than it is a transformation.
When I shift my mental state into that of a wolf, I envision the strength, wisdom, and power of the wolf filling my body. My astral form transforming into that of a wolf. My physical strength, will power, and wisdom increase drasticly. And no, I don’t mean I turn into the fucking hulk when my physical strength increases. I mean the energy I have stored up inside heightens to the point it feels as if I had drunk twenty Red Bulls.
But im sure if someone wanted to start a fight with me while I’m in this state wouldn’t live to see the light of day. They’d end up with a broken bone…or six.
If you have ever had an adrenaline rush, this state certainly feels like that. Not as extreme, but it will certainly put a pep in your step.
Now on to wisdom. It’s short and simple. You tend to make better choices and apply knowledge to situations rather than dive head on without any thought, as the majority of people tend to do. I find you only gain this benefit if you can control yourself from giving into anger.
Will power is short and simple as well. You will becomes as hard as steel. It would be extremely challenging to break your mentality.
While all these are amazing benefits to shifting there are some disadvantages. Hatred, bloodlust, violence, loss of control, animalistic behavior. These tend to only take place if someone can’t control themselves.
Hatred, violence and animalistic behavior are pretty much self explanatory. If you guys wish for me to go into depth about these two things I’ll edit this post.
Bloodlust: If one who had a deep hatred and anger locked up inside them, they would most likely go about causing arguments and violent confrontations with everyone around them. You become the purely aggressive animal that you are.
I not only use Lycanthropy magick for strength but I also utilize it for enchanting. When I’m in this state I simply need to hold the object I want charged or enchanted, and I focus my breath. My heartbeat. And I visualize the wolf energy inside me flowing through my body, into my arms and hands and then into the object.
I also incorporate Lycanthropy-like deities and entities into this form of magick. It works wonders. Below are a list of feelings/symptoms you may have while using this energy.
- A tingling or heavy feeling in your chest area
- Strange cravings for raw meat or even animals
- Increased Strength
- Heightened Senses
- Dog-like qualities, such as being sensitive to every little sound you hear.
- Anger/Hatred
- Bloodlust: Your gonna wanna bite and tear everyone around you to shreds
- Violent outbursts
- Adrenaline Rush
- You feel as if you can take on the world
These are all the symptoms I have displayed while working with Lycanthropy energies.
There is much to discuss and talk about when it comes down to this form of magick. I intend to go further into depth with this in the near future as well as give you all rituals and spells to use if your interested in Lycanthropy.
