hi, can you tell why a crow would suddenly be cawing in my yard AT NIGHT !!! I never hear crows at night here. there is a lot of interpretations about this crow and what it may mean for someone’s path if they hear one at night can you shed any light on this very unusual occurence.
thankyou
Hi!
I believe that when we see animals at night, it tells us to pay special attention to something hidden from us. For instance, you may be blocking a memory that will help you move forward in life – a memory that is blocking abundance or achievement. Just as in the dream world or the Tarot, night tells us that we are in a hidden (which is what occult means) time. The crow may have been letting you know this.

well, I’m from Brazil, I’m a spiritualist and I have your book I bought on Amazon ”Natural Magick” , so , I got that book in great esteem and feel deep admiration for yours experience and wisdom that is perceived on it. I really would like to know Your experience about ”doll magick” ”poppets magic”, ”voodoo dolls”, and if you could tell your knowledge about that matter in a post in your web site I’ll be very gratefull and glad! Thanks already. Good afternoon.
Hello Walter!
Thank you for writing. I use poppet magick — and have no experience with voodoo which has a rich history and it is a different tradition. I use poppets for healing – and for personal use. Creating a poppet of your own for yourself can be powerful. Create a doll figure out of cloth. Small is best, 6 to 8 inches, fill it with herbs, a special crystal, and things that you wish to draw “into you”. For example a small rose quartz polished stone to bring in love or be more loving, a bit of mustard seed to bring in prosperity. You can also use a poppet to bless your new magical self when choosing a private magical name that you use only during ritual. Write the new name on a piece of paper, use other items that you want to draw into yourself, and put the new name and items into the doll, and bless it during your naming ceremony. These are the ways I use poppets. Thanks for the idea of the blog – it is a good idea.
Brightest blessings,
Sally
Hello Mrs Sally! I really enjoyed your answer! I’m very grateful, I’m just now responding because I was out of the internet signal. And I already “apologize” also for some failure in “my English” (I understand the language well, but when it is to speak, I get confused a little!).
I’ll be waiting with pleasure for the post about poppets that you might prepare! Blessed be!
Hi Sally,
I only just found your page today when I was looking for info. regarding seeing a Murder of Crows. I loved what you wrote and was even more thrilled by your writing on Tarot and Jungian thinking.
I’m sad that the last archived article was July of 2019 and hope that you will be returning to share more of your thoughts and knowledge. What I’ve read this far has been insightful and interesting! And I plan to check out the rest of the archive.
But no matter your journey please accept my “Thanks” and I wish you much joy and peace in this New Year
Thank you again
