I was trained and work with the seven planets, a system that dates back to the Pre-Modern universe, when the world view was that the planets revolved around the earth, and not the sun. The seven planets included the Moon, Mercury, the Sun, Mars, Venus, Jupiter, and Saturn, and each one shone down on planet earth and its rays of influence would be soaked up by certain plants, animals, foods and stones, which could then be used to give us the energy of those planets to help deal with any given problem.

For instance, if someone had a legal problem, then they might use foods under the influence of Jupiter to assist them, or if they wanted to draw love to them, they would work with the planet Venus. Now I know and you know that this system is not held up by the science of today (for we know that the planets orbit the sun and not the earth, that there aren't seven of them and the sun is a star and not a planet) but science and logic aside, this system works for me.

This system has been used for generations, and while scientists may scoff at my ignorance, I know that what really matters is the meaning you ascribe to something and not what someone else tells you that you should believe that counts.

These meanings continue to work for me, and so I continue to use them, sometimes I work with the four elements as well, sometimes with Wiccan traditions, and sometimes with traditional charms handed down from Cunning Folk who used to follow this path before me, but the one element that runs through all of my practice, is a love of nature and working with natural energies.

If you would like to know anything more about that, feel free to send me an email and I will be happy to answer any questions.
