Remembering Saint Joan Spell
Color of the day: Ivory Incense of the day: Rose Incense of the day: Rose She was a French peasant girl who became known to the world as Joan of Arc. On this day in France in 1431 she was burnt at the stake by the English. Known for the visions that told her to help liberate her country from the English, St. Joan was eventually brought to trial on charges of witchcraft and religious heresy. The witchcraft charges were dropped, but the charges of religious heresy eventually led to her execution. The Vatican, however, pronounced her innocent in 1456, and she was declared a saint in 1920. Today, St. Joan would have been called a psychic or visionary. Her life serves as an example of how psychic abilities have been misunderstood over the centuries. Understandably, she is friend and patron of soldiers. And on a deeper level magical people identify with her as the embodiment of the warrior goddess aspect. |
