Witches' Familiars Collection

Contemporary Pagans and Witches see Familars as creatures sensitive to psychic vibrations, extra-sensory perception and magic, thus employ them as magical helpers. It is also believed that Familiars are able to advise people on journeys and the tasks of life.

The concept of magical animals has resonated throughout history in tribal traditions, creation myths and many religions. In ancient Rome, a spirit guardian was the protector of a household or nation.

Classical Greek philosopher, Socrates, spoke of a personal spirit or daimon that he said guided his conscience, stopping him from making mistakes. Native Americans believe in totem animals - animal symbols which reflect certain qualities or characteristics - that serve as guides and guardian spirits of both the physical and spiritual worlds.

In the Middle Ages, familiars were described as low-ranking demons. Magicians conjured them in rituals, then locked them into bottles, rings and stones. They sometimes sold them as charms, claiming the spirits would ensure sucess in gambling, love, business or anything else to match the customer's needs.
