There are some amazing images in this video that blogging teammate Thalia recommended.
I don't know how cats came to be thought of as familiars for practitioners of magick. Mine are a huge pain in the butt! They like to charge through the middle of the tarot card setup and sit in the middle of my spell book.
The friend who I am helping with this spell work told me (psychically) that he isn't afraid of his body dying. I said that I felt that he had unfinished business. He said the only unfinished business is the fact that he wasn't ready to be finished and had more that he wanted to do.
I can't tell him what to do, certainly. I can only offer him my support. The choice is entirely his.
Also, to offer him my love. Because I have that in spades for him. I hope somehow it helps.
