WHERE CAN I FIND CHARMED WEBSITES
Charmed is set in San Francisco and is centered on the Halliwell sisters who
are reunited in their grandmother's Victorian home. They are very different from
each other and have been known to be a tenacious threesome, but, could they be
witches? Real witches? On the night of their reunion, the three Halliwell
sisters are mysteriously led into the attic, where they discover The Book of
Shadows. This book of witchcraft defines the role of the Charmed Ones, three
of the most powerful witches who will come together to receive their powers on
the night of a full moon.
With the full moon over their heads, the Halliwell sisters descend the stairs
from the attic and into the world of the supernatural. If they are witches, then
they need to learn about their newly acquired powers, and they need to learn
fast. According to legend, warlocks and demons feast on the powers and lives of
good witches. They need to face the truth to survive.
Charmed is currently broadcast in the United States on the WB (Warner
Brothers) network on Thursday nights at 9 p.m. eastern standard time as part of
the WB Thursday lineup. The WB may be carried on various stations depending on
your local broadcasting schedule.

The theme song, entitled "How Soon Is Now?" is performed by Love
Spit Love. It is currently available on "The Craft" soundtrack CD. The
original version is by The Smiths and can be found on "The Wedding
Singer" soundtrack CD.
Here are the complete lyrics for "How Soon Is Now?"
I am the son
And the heir
Of a shyness that is criminally vulger
I am the son and the heir
Of nothing in particular
You shut your mouth
How can you say
I go about things the wrong way
I am Human and I need to be loved
Just like everybody else does
There's a club, if you like to go
You could meet somebody who really loves you
So you go, and you stand on your own
And you leave on your own
And you go home, and you cry
And you want to die
When you say it's gonna happen "now"
Well, when exactly do you mean?
See I've already waited too long
And all my hope is gone
There is also a series of books being released by Pocket Pulse. The first book in the series is "The Power of Three" that is based loosely on the pilot episode "Something Wicca This Way Comes" and was released November 1999. The next book in the series is an original story, "Kiss of Darkness," which was released in February 2000. The third book in the series is titled "The Crimson Spell" and was released in April 2000. A fourth book is coming titled "Whispers From The Past."
Atheme: A double-edged steel dagger that witches use in performing ceremonial
magick. Witches use it to direct magical energy during spell-casting.
Book of Shadows: A relatively new term for a collection of information in
book form. Sort of a witch's how-to guide and much akin to a magical cookbook.
Another name for this text is "grimoire."
Charm: Either an amulet or talisman that has been charged by saying an
incantation over it and instilling it with energy for a specific task.
Coven: A group of witches who work together in an organized fashion for
positive magical endeavors or to perform religious ceremonies. The covenstead is
the meeting place of the witches, often a fixed building or place where a witch
can feel safe and at home.
Familiar: An animal who has a spiritual bond with a witch; often it's the
family pet. Familiars can also be entities created to protect your home from
attacks from the astral plane.
Pentacle: A five-pointed, upright star is considered a pentacle. Worn as a
symbol of a witch's belief and used in magical ceremonies. Each point on the
star has a specific meaning: earth, air, fire, water and spirit. A pentagram
with a circle around it is known as a pentacle and symbolizes a passive
spiritual containment keeping in tune with the traditional secrecy of
witchcraft. Without a surrounding circle it symbolizes a prepared awareness. An
inverted pentagram often denotes a dark aspect or force and can be considered a
negative sign.
Spirit Board: A spirit board is a flat board with letters, numbers and the
words "yes" and "no" etched on the surface. When called on,
spirits guide the pointer on the board to spell or select answers to questions.
It is also known as a Ouija Board from the "yes, which translates as "Oui"
in French and "Ja" in German thus spelling out "OuiJa".
Warlock: According to the Book of Shadows on "Charmed," these are
former witches who failed to follow the "Wiccan Rede" (the witches
moral code) and now hunt and kill witches to steal their powers.
Wicca: Alternative name for modern witchcraft. The practice and beliefs of
Wicca date back to ancient times and formed the roots of the term 'witch' in Old
English. It is a positive, Earth-oriented, nature religion with ancient roots
that are pre-Christian. It gloriously celebrates the life force, encourages
spiritual growth, and includes seasonal rites to attune oneself to the beauty,
magick and love of Mother Nature and Goddess Earth.
Wiccan Rede: A moral code for all witches which boils down to one
commandment: "An ye harm none, do what ye will." The basic idea is
that as long as witches do not harm anyone with their potions and spells, they
are free to do as they like.
Witch: A person, male or female, who follows the ways of Wicca. A witch is
not evil, yet if a witch uses her powers for evil it will rebound on him/her
threefold.
Prue has the power to move objects with her mind. This is also known as
Telekinesis or Psychokinesis. She has also manifested the power of Astral
Projection.
Piper has the power to stop time momentarily. This ability does not work
against good witches. This power is known as Time Freeze.
Phoebe has the power to foresee the future. This power is known as
Precognition. She has also manifested the ability to levitate.
Here now the words of the witches,
the secrets we hid in the night.
The oldest of gods are invoked here,
great works of magic is sought.
In this night and in this hour,
I call upon the ancient power.
Bring your power to we sisters three,
we want the power,
give us the power.
Where do I go?
