I agree, Dustin…only attempt firewalking with a trained, certified professional who knows what they are doing.

Just building a campfire and attempting to walk across it is NOT the proper way to do a firewalk.

Firewalking instructors are trained in which types of wood to use (you cannot use just any type of wood, there are specific types of woods that are used), how to build the fire properly, and how to rake the coals and prepare them for a firewalk. In addition, you need to be able to put yourself in the proper frame of mind to be able to do it right.

I want to clarify that the coals are still burning and hot – there are no flames, but this doesn’t mean that the fire is out…the coals are still glowing red.

Yes, some people can and will get burned…especially if you try to do this on your own.

Just believing that you can walk on fire does not allow you to do it. I recently tried such a feet and ended with a bad blister on my foot. The actual act requires coals that HAD been on fire but are no longer burning. Also having ash on top of the coals helps greatly too. I tried walking across a burning small campfire thinking it would not burn me… Boy was I wrong. Only do this with a trained professional!!!

I agree, Birch – being deaf has nothing to do with it.

I just wanted to show that there ARE Deaf people out there who have walked on fire, and that being deaf doesn’t mean that we can’t still do the same things as anyone else

(or be just as scared about doing them as everybody else!)

Well said, Hawk.

Now where did I put that charm for the banishment of fluffbunnies?

There’s no spells on this blog for the simple fact that Ocean, as an ordained High Priestess with 25+ years in the Craft, knows better.

Any ethical witch worth her salt would not be putting spells on a public internet site for the whole world to see. That’s not only stupid, it’s plain irresponsible.

Being Pagan isn’t about casting spells. It’s about honoring the spirits, showing reverence for nature, and living in an ethical manner.

If you can’t understand that, then you have no business even asking the above question.
