There is this spell I found on here to make my cat into a Familiar (a Magickal Companion) should I do it? And what would be the benifits of having a Familiar? I don't want to hurt my cat or anything.
You're not going to be able to make a familiar by spell - nor at all for that matter. You don't just make them. They come to be; in cases may come to be one's familiar by a growing relationship/connection.
The familiar can (depending on if it's the physical or spiritual familiar) have various purposes. The physical familiar (which is really more a misconception than any thing) can aid in the giving of energy in a working. I don't care for the concept of a physical familiar so I leave it at that.
The spiritual familiar has many purposes such as, but not limited to, guidance in situations, protection, relaying messages, and help in astral projection/pathwalking/faring forth.
Thanks for the help. I really didn't want to cast a spell on my cat. So a familiar is like a spirit animal? I heard you find your spirit animal by simple meditation..
Yes and you can find your spirit familiar by meditation. Also some things you should know is that it may or may not by an animal. It could be a reflection of you (meaning look just like you) or even a mythical creature such as a dragon, for example. Though it could take on any form.
Some methods to find your familiar are meditating on finding your familiar, astral projection (though when you find your familiar in meditation and talk to it, this is viewed as being done by astral projection) and dreams. There is likely to be other methods to find them, but the methods listed seems to be the more common methods.
A dream method would be some such as writing on a strip of paper "I want my familiar to reveal it self to me," and place the paper folded under your pillow when you go to sleep. As your laying down to sleep focus on finding your familiar in your sleep. And in your dreams your familiar should reveal it self to you. It may take multiple attempts before you finally realize your familiar and all. You should pay attention to what people/creatures/etc say to you. What stays by you frequently and maybe follows you. What shows in your dreams repeatedly. These are likely signs of your familiar being revealed to you.
Note that you can have more than one familiar. You are not limited to just one familiar.
And it's really weird that you said that about the dreaming of a familiar thing. I've been having visions of first a leopard cat (I forget which breed.) and a Tiger. Do you think its a sign of my spirit animal(s) coming?
Oh and thank you once again for the help! I appreciate it alot.
It's a likelihood those could be your familiars. If you would like, you should try to communicate with them. Whether it be in your dreams or if you meditate to talk to them.
