Compass Divination

Apparently, the compass was created by a Chinese geomantic omen master (whatever that is), and they originally used it for divination. How cool is that? I must point out, that the needle in Chinese feng shui compasses points towards the south, which could have some interesting magical uses if you’d like to do some backwards reversal magic, I guess.

This, however, is inspired by Jack Sparrow’s compass, and is used to discover what you most want in this world. I doesn’t have to be as grand as that, though, and it’s probably more useful to just figure out what you want to do at this exact moment. Which is what I do. 

“True enough, this compass does not point north.” “…Where does it point?” “It points to the thing you want most in this world.”

- Jack Sparrow and Elizabeth Swann

First, get a compass. You can get these real cheap nowadays, or you might even have one laying around. Even phones comes with these things build in now, and there’s probably lots of awesome compass apps out there as well. Still, analog magick is usually more potent. You might want to make a super-special Witch-Compass for this purpose, by adding cool sigils or just decorating it and stuff, and you can, if you want, consecrate it as you would with any of your magical tools.

Write out a list of things you think you want. This could be anything, really. Food, people, jobs, money, books, animals, projects, clothes, whatever. 

Draw a circle on a paper, divided it up in 4, 8, 12, or 16 etc. sections according to how long your list is.  

Spin the paper around until its direction is random. 

Pick up your compass.

Stand up. 

Spin around in a circle as many times as there are items on your list. 

Stop. 

Say out loud: This is the thing I want most in the world! 

Put the compass down in the centre of the circle on the paper. 

The needle will pint towards the thing you want the most in the world.

This is just one silly idea, and I’m sure there’s plenty of other unconventional uses of the compass in divination, witchcraft and magick in general.

“Please don’t forget Standing Rock This is an update on Standing Rock. It’s not pleasant. You’ve been fairly warned. Update from Standing Rock volunteer-

Friends, I have returned from Standing Rock with my mind blown, my heart broken and my spirit troubled with foreboding of a deepening tragedy. Volunteering as a legal observer with the Water Protector Legal Collective I witnessed several confrontations between Water Protectors (WP) and law enforcement: national guard, sheriffs and private security (LE). On 1/18/17 - 1/19/17 I observed WP with their hands in the air chanting “hands up don’t shoot” being fired upon at a range of 10 to 15 feet. Tear gas canisters and rubber bullets ( rubber bullets are regular bullets covered in rubber) were used against unarmed WP who had been singing and praying. I observed national guard chasing WP off the Backwater bridge, firing at people running away. I heard people choking and gagging from tear gas. I saw access to the WP medic vehicles being blocked. I spoke with medics and WP who described bullets penetrating flesh and causing terrible injuries, including to one media person who nearly lost his finger when his camera was targeted. I talked with a media person and was told of 4 media people on the bridge that night, 3 had their recording devices shot and the 4th, his hand. I saw a photo of a sheriff aiming a rifle directly at a media woman who was standing apart from the crowd. I heard testimony of the back of the medic pickup truck being awash in blood after evacuating wounded. I watched, and then, inadvertently became a part of, WP being forced off the bridge by national guard who were hiding behind WP vehicles parked along the road and firing rubber bullets at fleeing people. Many people were shot in the back, the neck, the head. When LE fired at people at close range, many were shot in the genitals or in the face. I received information about DAPL security breaching the short wave radio channels of the WP with taunts such as ”come out and fight like men you faggots or we will come to Camp and fuck your women.” There are some young warriors, who, without the support of their elders, many who want the camps cleared to mitigate the economic and social damage being suffered by the local community in having the bridge closed, have vowed to not leave the camps or to let the last section of pipeline be built. Driving away from the area on Monday I saw a convoy of construction vehicles heading to the drill pad. Last night an indigenous website live streamed reports of drilling and construction noises coming from the drill pad. Without the eyes of a free press these attacks and trespasses continue, with the human rights and sovereignty of indigenous peoples denied. The UN Committee on Transnational Corporations and Human Right Abuses was in Standing Rock this week to take testimony of the many transgressions against people: crop dusters spraying poison pesticides and fertilizers on the camps; hair samples indicating the presence of these chemicals; people who have been injured, beat up, arrested, strip searched; media and medics being targeted by snipers; (one medic told me he stopped wearing his Red Cross vest due to medics being targeted); praying people being attacked and the refusal of DAPL and our government to abide by the Rule of Law. The vets who came in Dec to stand down against these crimes need to be on the ground there now, right now. We need to stand up for our brothers and our sisters, for their way of life and, I believe, for our social contract as a democracy which is now threatened. Please share this so word gets out what is happening, thank you. Deborah MacKay”
