Practice #43: How to Clear a Person

Clearing of a person is a standard practice for magicians. There are many reasons for which a clearing may become necessary. Persons who are involved in magical practice but who do not have yet the authority to control energies of a higher order (“spirits” may become possessed. The entity that has a good mental capability seeks to gain a permanent point to manifest. This process is like a stone falling to the ground. It’s a natural characteristic of any entity, even a “good” one. It’s preferable not to be possessed by any entity – neither by a demon nor by an angel. A human being with its Divine spark is born to have control at all times. Possession by a demon, an angel, or a channeled entity is against human nature. Consequently human beings have a desire to rid themselves from these entities. There are many ways in which possession can occur.

Mate

by Aldis Putelis

 
The Latvian word for “mother” and used to form the names of some sixty (some sources give the number seventy) Latvian deities. They are different and the ease with what they have been created lead to a conclusion that it has been a pattern at some time, assuming that there is a Mother for every thing and activity. Some of them have quite clear descriptions and functions (as Veja mate – Mother of Winds, Zemes mate – Mother of Soil/Land, Velu mate – Mother of the Dead Souls (veli), etc.), the others are mentioned just
a couple of times or even just once.

Dieva deli

by Aldis Putelis

 
The sons of the supreme god Dievs and the suitors of Saules meitas. They are described as working in the household of their father. Their number is not clear – there are mostly two of them, sometimes three, sometimes no number is indicated, thus leaving just the concept. There is also a tendency to refer to some deities as Dieva deli (such as Janis and Jumis), because this is not a stable phenomenon although there are texts attributing this name especially to Janis.
