Magick and alcohol...

I had written about working with blessed alcohol before, but I want to revisit it at this point, with an interesting update.  I have spent the last 3 days experimenting with alcohol and its magickal properties, when worked with as a spiritual medicine.  I've done so with both red wine and also with whisky.  Here is more on that:

Sometimes I get the sense that the presence of Jesus is around me, not like a wandering soul (He is omnipresent, of course), but almost like there's an attention that may not always be there.  Recently, while sipping on wine I had blessed with tobacco, I prayed to Him for assistance in any healing I require (I had the sense His presence was there), and began to feel powerful, soothing highs with each sip.  (I had not consumed enough to be drunk - this was only on my first goblet of the day.  It felt deeper than mere alcoholic highs... it was like something releasing in me.)  I decided to keep investigating.

I had been blessing my wine with a Catholic prayer ritual involving holy water, but switched to simply praying with tobacco offerings to Jesus that He bless my alcohol with sacred properties.  It seems offering tobacco to fire, at least in my case, is the superior blessing method, because where I might have tried something like this before with wine that was blessed the other way, this tobacco blessed wine is inducing more powerful results. 

In the park yesterday, I brought a container with some red wine in it and my chalice, to enjoy this little ritual out in nature.  I called Jesus in and proceeded to consume the wine.  Midway, I channeled a message that this would be even more powerful if I used whisky, so on the way home, I stopped by the LCBO and picked up some Fireball (I'm such a girl - I don't like regular straight whisky, but love this liqueur variant - it's 33% and I got that it would suffice).  I also got the message to call upon St. Anthony for blessings, and also blessed everything I had under the famous Franciscan of missing objects.

I returned home, blessed my purchase with tobacco, and later experimented with the whisky when I got the sense of the presence of Jesus again.  (It's a more powerful reaction when I sense that He is more present than without Him paying me this attention.)  Today I have consumed more whisky this way, and have channeled I may not need any more of this to feel the healing benefits it can give me.  We shall see, but it's comparable to pouring cool water over a burn in how it soothes me as a soul.

I chatted things up with my rosary coven and want to invite others in it to consider Jesus wine magick for spiritual awakening and healing, should they desire it.  Kind of like taking communion, I guess, but sexier, with more wine.
