Wiccan protection sigils are powerful symbols used in Wiccan practice to provide protection and ward off negative energies. These symbols are often created and charged with specific intentions to amplify their protective properties. Wiccan protection sigils can be drawn or engraved on various surfaces, such as candles, talismans, or ritual tools, and are commonly used during rituals or spellcasting. Each Wiccan protection sigil has its own unique meaning and purpose, representing different aspects of protection and spiritual defense. Some commonly used sigils include the Pentagram, which is a five-pointed star representing the five elements and the five senses, and the Triple Moon symbol, representing the three phases of the moon and the stages of a woman's life. Other important Wiccan protection sigils include the Eye of Horus, which symbolizes protection from evil and negative energies, and the Triskele, a symbol of interconnectedness and triple spirals that represent the three realms of existence.

Legendary New York Hip-Hop DJ Mr. Magic Dies

Biggie immortalized him in rhyme, but by the time the Brooklyn MC name-checked Mr. Magic on 1994's Ready to Die, the DJ was already a living legend. It was confirmed today that Mr. Magic passed away after suffering a heart attack. (At press time it was unknown how old he was.)

Magic, born John Rivas, was a pioneer in hip-hop and made his mark as the first DJ to host a mixshow hour on commercial radio, which was revolutionary in the early 1980s but as common as a rap CD with a "Parental Advisory" sticker on it today. Back in 1982 when Mr. Magic, along with Marley Marl as his DJ and Tyrone "Fly Ty" Williams as co-producer, kick-started "Rap Attack," the program's launch was arguably as significant to music history as when the Moonman planted the MTV flag in outer space.

"Rap Attack" was a cultural touchstone fondly remembered by countless rappers, breakdancers, journalists and fans who were transfixed by the early sounds of hip-hop transmitted through their speakers by Mr. Magic.

Aside from the musical nods ("Juicy" and Whodini's "Magic's Wand"), Magic was also known for his part in the watershed battle between the Juice Crew -- founded by Marley Marl and featuring Big Daddy Kane, Craig G. and Kool G Rap -- and KRS-One's Boogie Down Productions.

The Bronx collective allegedly first heard the Juice Crew's MC Shan track "The Bridge," an ode thought to be proclaiming hip-hop's start in Queens, while pushing their demo to Magic. After feeling snubbed by Magic, who was affiliated with the Juice Crew, BDP fired back with the classic tracks "The Bridge is Over" and "South Bronx." The tracks were spun heavily by Magic rival Red Alert, fueling the memorable "Bridge Wars" that lasted throughout the '80s.

In the '90s, tensions between the camps subsided and Mr. Magic began receiving acclaim as DJs like Funkmaster Flex ascended from mixshow spinners into prime-time talents.

This afternoon, Hot 97's Mister Cee dedicated his mixshow hour to Mr. Magic's memory, and on Twitter thousands of condolences have been posted by everyone from Talib Kweli to Styles P.

DJ Premier perhaps said it best when he blogged about the mixshow icon.

"He was known for his direct and sarcastic attitude on the air," he wrote. "And every artist wanted his approval when it came to breaking new records."

He was hip-hop's Walter Cronkite and a respected voice gone far too soon. May his wand rest in peace.

DJ/Mixshow Pioneer Mr. Magic Dies Of Heart Attack

New York DJ Mr. Magic reportedly died of a heart attack early this morning (October 2), yet surrounding his death are currently unknown.

The news was revealed by radio personality Miss Info, via her blog MissInfo.tv, where the legendary DJ Premier shared a condolences in a letter.

“I want to send out the utmost respect and condolences to the memory of John Rivas-a.k.a. Mr. Magic. He passed away this morning of a heart attack,” Premier wrote. “He paved the way for all radio stations that ever did mixshows.'”

Mr. Magic was immortalized in the Notorious B.I.G.‘s debut single, “Juicy,” when the Brooklyn rapper rhymed “Every Saturday ‘Rap Attack,’ Mr. Magic, Marley Marl.” Even before the shout out, however, Magic was a hip-hop pioneer–the first to host a mixshow hour on commercial radio. While it’s commonplace today, the feat was revolutionary in the early 1980s. The show was called “Rap Attack,” and was put together by Magic, Marley Marl and Tyrone “Fly Ty” Williams.

Magic is also known for his part in the now-legendary battle between the Juice Crew (Marley Marl, Big Daddy Kane, Craig G. and Kool G Rap) and KRS-One‘s Boogie Down Productions.

BDP were the first to hear MC Shan’s infamous track, “The Bridge,” an ode thought to be proclaiming hip-hop’s start in Queens, while pushing their demo to Magic. After feeling snubbed by Magic, who was affiliated with the Juice Crew, BDP fired back with the classic tracks “The Bridge is Over” and “South Bronx.” The tracks were spun heavily by Magic rival Red Alert, fueling the memorable “Bridge Wars” that lasted throughout the ’80s.

Since the news broke, thousands of Twitter replies have been posted about Magic’s untimely death, including rappers such as Styles P and Talib Kweli.

At press time, Mr. Magic is unknown.

Reviews for "Wiccan Sigils for Protection: A Guide to Choosing the Right Symbol"

- John - 1 star

I found the concept of "Wican protection sigils" to be nothing more than a hoax. The claims made by the product about its ability to ward off negative energy and provide spiritual protection seemed far-fetched and unfounded. Despite following the instructions carefully, I did not experience any noticeable changes in my environment or personal well-being. I feel like the company behind this product is preying on people's vulnerability and belief in the supernatural to make a profit. I would not recommend "Wican protection sigils" to anyone seeking genuine spiritual guidance or protection.

- Sarah - 2 stars

I bought "Wican protection sigils" with high hopes, but unfortunately, I was left disappointed. The sigils themselves lacked any magical or spiritual energy, and the designs seemed arbitrarily drawn and lacking in intentionality. The instructions provided were vague and did not give proper guidance on how to use the sigils effectively. I also found the price to be quite high for what essentially amounted to a piece of paper with some symbols on it. Overall, I feel like "Wican protection sigils" failed to live up to its claims and left me feeling like I wasted my money.

- Michael - 1 star

I have been practicing Wicca for many years, and I must say that "Wican protection sigils" are a joke. The sigils provided in the package are nothing more than generic symbols with no true connection to Wiccan traditions or spirituality. It almost feels like a cheap imitation of what Wicca truly represents. Additionally, the instructions included are rudimentary at best and fail to provide any real insight or guidance on how to incorporate the sigils into one's practice. As someone who values authenticity and respect for traditions, I cannot recommend "Wican protection sigils" to fellow Wiccans or anyone seeking genuine spiritual tools.
