New Egyptian Statues Now In Stock!

Moondust And Angels have just added lots of amazing new Egyptian Statues , you will find them under our Statues and Figures Category under sub cat:  Egyptian Statues they include:

Thoth With Writing Tablet

Thoth was the Egyptian god of law, arbitration, science and writing, the ibis-headed god Thoth stands 11 3/4" tall in this exquisite statue. He is represented here as the observer, and the creator of written word as he was often revered. Made out of cold-cast resin and hand painted vividly in gold and silver, he is formed as though he is taking notes with his chisel and tablet, with his dark eyes staring past his writing to that which he exists beyond. This is a wonderful piece for all who love the Egyptian pantheon or for those who look to Thoth for guidance in his mediation of the law.

Horus With Staff And Ankh

Often viewed as the patron god of Egypt, Horus is widely recognized as one of the eldest and most revered of the Egyptian gods. Indeed, in the days of Ancient Egypt the Pharaoh was believed to be Horus in life much as he was believed to be Osiris in death, with each new Pharaoh merely being a new incarnation of Horus; a concept that had overtaken the earlier belief that the Pharaoh was the son of Ra. As the conqueror of Seth, the god of war and hunting, and the protector of Egypt, his symbol, the Eye of Horus, became a symbol of protection and power, helping to ward off evil. Taking the form of the traditional image of Horus, this statue celebrates the patron deity as he was known to the Ancient Egyptians. With the head of a falcon crowned in rulership of all of Egypt, he is posed as one might see him portrayed in ancient hieroglyphs: one foot slightly forward with his forward hand holding the carrying the traditional staff and his relaxed arm carrying the ankh. The whole piece stands approximately 12" tall, 2 3/4" wide, and 4" deep and has been painted in rich tones of gold and black

Isis

The mother of Horus and the wife and sister of Osiris, Isis is widely revered as one of the most beloved and worshipped Goddesses throughout history and one of the greatest sorceresses of all time. Associated with the divine powers of motherhood, marital devotion, and healing, Isis is said to have brought Osiris back to life and aided in his becoming the powerful god of the underworld for which he is now known.

Here she is displayed in her later form, in full glory with wings wide open. Adorning her head are the horns and disc, the hieroglyphic sign for "throne," which marks her station and is a symbol of her power and authority. Painted in the traditional tones of ancient Egypt, her gold skin radiates feminine beauty even as her stately divinity shines through, creating a powerful symbol of the divine feminine .

This wall hanging measures approximately 11 1/4" wide and 12" high and is sculpted of cold-cast resin

Isis

Anubis

One of the most widely recognized gods revered by the ancient Egyptians, Anubis is most frequently represented as a man with a black, jackal's head. Within Egyptian mythology, he is known often as the Embalmer, who helps prepare the dead for their journey to the underworld. Of old Anubis was also known to be the guardian of the dead, and the one who weighed the heart of against Ma'at to determine the worthiness of the deceased. As such, he had a prominent role throughout Egyptian history, and was worshiped in various forms into the 2nd century, with the eventual incarnation of Hermanubis even appearing in alchemical and hermetical works. This statue depicts Anubis in the traditional manner; an upright man with a crook in one hand and the ankh in the other, in the garb of the ancient Egyptians and a golden headdress hanging from his jackal head. Place it upon your altar and celebrate Anubis's stewardship over the dead, or remind yourself that in the end the truth in your heart will be weighed against a feather. The statue, sculpted of cold cast resin, measures approximately 11 1/2" tall, 3" wide, and 5" deep.

Do You Believe In Angels?

Angelic Gifts and Statues

Do you believe in Angels?

Angels are found in many religions or spiritual paths.  The word Angel is a mix of old English Engel and the old French Angele. Both come from the Latin Angelus which in turn comes from the ancient Greek Angelos, which is translated as 'messenger' this is related to the Greek verb (angello) which means 'bear a message', 'announce', 'bring news' etc.

In Kabalah there are four worlds, our world is the newest and is the world of action,  (Assiyah)  Angels are said to exist in the worlds above our world,  and are known as a task of God.  As extensions of God they produce effects in our world.

In Christianity Angels are spirits of good, love, compassion, messengers of Jesus Christ. Angels are mentioned throughout the Bible, for example, Psalms and the earliest depiction of Angels in Christianity is in the Catacomb Of Priscilla

In Islam Angels are mentioned many times, Islam is clear that Angels are messengers of God, Angels do not have free will and only do what God commands. Believing in angels is one of the 6 Articles Of Faith In Islam

In the Bahai faith Angels are described as people who ‘have consumed, with the fire of the love of God, all human traits and limitations’, and have ‘clothed themselves’ with angelic attributes and have become ‘endowed with the attributes of the spiritual’ They are blessed beings who have severed all ties with this nether world' according to Abdul-Baha

In Zoroastrianism there a different types of Angel,  everyone has one guardian angel which are called Fravashi, they manifest God's energy

I do believe in Angels, having been lucky enough to have had several astonishing Angelic encounters.

The feelings? Love Joy and Peace

The message? Universal Unconditional Love -for every single person

Lesson? Love of the self -this frees us all and helps us to achieve true peace and joy

The idea of a Guardian Angel is an immensely comforting one, the thought that there is always a friend there in times of need. Angels are endlessly fascinating to humans, the belief in Angels is widespread and worldwide.

I have several amulets which I keep either on my person or close by, one is a slice of wood with an engraved Rune, one is a Rose Quartz palm stone with an engraving of an Angel on it,  this is always kept in my pocket.

'And through it all she offers me protection, a lot of love and affection whether I'm right or wrong'

Some famous Angels

Archangel Michael -Protector -Sword and Shield

Archangel Gabriel - Messenger - Trumpet and Lily

Archangel Raphael - Healer - Caduceus and Staff

So what is scrying?

 Scrying is an ancient practise,  a form of divination which requires the 'gazer' or 'seer' to enter a trance like state by gazing into a magic mirror or perhaps a bowl of water, some may use a cauldron, others prefer to use a special crystal or a simple bowl painted black inside and filled with water, there are several ways to scry and many tools to use.

 One of the popular ways to scry is to use a 'magic mirror' or a crystal ball because of the properties and energies associated with the stone or crystal.

Obsidian is popular due to Obsidians excellent grounding and protective properties.

Obsidian as a stone can help you connect with your 'inner warrior'.

Scrying using a black mirror or black surface helps to prevent distractions and helps to focus.

Important!  IOur scrying mirrors are not black because they have anything to do with black magic! 

Black is a colour or 'non-colour' which is particularly useful in meditation techniques as black is the absence of light, the darkness of the mirror enables the user to focus deeply on meditating without distraction.

There should be no distractions whilst attempting scrying, the scryer should be relaxed and centred, calm and feel safe. Attempt scrying only when feeling well, positive and alert, not when feeling tired or run down.

Scrying using a black mirror helps with meditation by opening the scryer to his/her subconcious. Scrying can also be used for inspiring innate creativity perhaps by helping to spark the mind with sudden flashes of inspiration and ideas, by emptying the mind and allowing thoughts, feelings and ideas or images to appear. You may find that scrying can help solve problems or help to make decisions.

It is advisable to use a protection method before scrying as you are essentially entering the astral plane, you may wish to cast a circle if you follow a pagan path, you may wish to visualise an unpenetrable bubble of pure white light that completely surrounds you or some may like to call upon their guides to protect them. Grounding is also important, also known as centering. There are several methods to ground yourself. Everyone is different so find a way that feels right for you. What is important is that you feel completely protected.

NB: Ground yourself afterwards aswell. Eat or drink something small such as a cup of tea and a biscuit -grounding is 'coming back down to earth'

It is advisable to read up on methods and purposes of scrying with a mirror before undertaking it . The Magic Mirror should be cleared before using it for the first time and kept in a pouch or soft cloth when not in use. Good methods of clearing are, smudging with incense or smudge sticks, leaving the mirror exposed to moonlight,  holding the mirror under clear running water, try holding in the hands while willing away any negativity, imagine strongly the mirror being filled with pure white light.  Again there are several methods to clear the mirror, what is important is that it feels right for you.

Book Review -Magic On The Breath by Tylluan Penry

'There is a reference in the Book of Genesis 'neshemet ruach chayim' or "the spirit of life within the breath"

In Tylluan Penrys book Magic On The Breath this spiritual phenomena is explored from a pagan witches point of view. I found this book a fascinating but down to earth, easy to follow in depth guide to creating and performing magic simply and effectively just by learning to use the breath.

This is a book that will be a wealth of practical advise and knowledge whether you are just starting out on a magical path or you are a more experienced practitioner.

In my opinion this book is an invaluable resource to anyone who is interested in breath work and you don't necessarily have to be a practising witch!

Controlling the breath is of utmost importance in many different cultures and religious practises.

For example the Yogi masters have been teaching us that there is an inner breath, also known as prana, chi, energy or ki.

The inner breath they teach us IS our spirit which moves through us body and soul. I have many books on spell casting, paganism, and all manner of esoteric subjects which have all had a part to play in my spiritual life, however no book has opened my eyes in quite the same way as Magic On The Breath.

Using the breath for magic had not occurred to me before reading this book, but it makes perfect sense and I believe can help us to achieve a much deeper understanding of our spirituality and our own inner magical power.

The breathing techniques described in the book take practise and dedication, this book is one which you will return to time and again. Learning about how your breath works and how you can affect it and the energy that surrounds us will take time and effort but it will be worth every minute.

Tylluan includes no less than 15 chapters with the following subjects being just a sample, ranging from dealing with negativity, empowering your spells, working with the moon and the elements, thought forms, glamour magic and spring cleaning the mind.


Magic On the Breath is an excellent and knowledgable book that I heartily recommend.  I award this book a great big fat 5 stars! *****

If you find breath work a fascinating subject and would like to read Tylluans Book you can purchase the kindle version at  Amazon
