Astrology observations đđđ
Credit goes to my blog @astroismypassion
đđ It really helps when people share a Risings sign, because they have similar behaviour, mannerisms, outlook on life and attitude. But this can also work to a similar extent for the same Mars sign. If you two are both Sagittarius Mars, you can have very similar habits and lifestyle.
đđ Mars in the 1st house and Pluto in the 1st (especially if they are together) in the sign of Sagittarius makes for a very indulgent person. They indulge in cigarettes, drinks, food, sex, flirting, relationship all at onceđ They really need that constant thrill.
đđ More often than viewing your 7th house/DSC sign as an ideal partner, I see that sign is the same Rising sign your partner/people feel attracted to has. It really corresponds more to Rising sign rather than Sun sign! For example: you have Gemini over 7th house, a lot of people you are attracted to might have Gemini/Virgo Rising!
đđ I donât want to cause any controversy here, but I noticed Gemini and Virgo Sun or Sun in the 3rd/6th, Sun square Jupiter very often donât pursue higher education, they often finish at high school or vocational college level. I see that the reason for that would be that they have really struggled with people underestimating them until that age and they just started looking down on themselves and their level of intelligence as well. Always where there is Sun energy combined with Gemini/Virgo, they are very self conscious of their intelligence. However, there is always exception to the rule, since Virgo is also an earth sign and can really apply themselves and becomes a great scholar and Gemini also needs constant mental stimulation so they might push through and pursue a higher level of education. Also, weirdly I noticed that Geminis didnât finish their degree, because they started working earlier or during studies, which prolonged their graduation.
đđScorpio Risings are most likely be the first to do something and they will be recognised for that, however most often it involves a taboo topic or something that might make them more notorius. For example: the highest earning stripper or the first one to start a spiritual business in a small town.
đđWhichever planet you have aspected with Saturn there will be a delay, so donât force it too much, it gets better after 1st (and then 2nd) Saturn Return. Like you might really crave a partner/a companion, but you have Moon Saturn aspect or Venus Saturn aspect. Things really evolve the most for you guys after your first Saturn Return (around ages 28, 29, sometimes earlier), but most definitely after the age of 30. Also, never rush getting married before 30 if you have Saturn in the 7th house/Venus Saturn aspects. You might really regret it, it can be actually very short lived and you might realise that despite having a committed partner (Saturn in the 7th house), you are still not happy/content yourself.
đđ This is oddly specific, but I previously mentioned how Scorpio Risings might be more prone to date someone from a different city or country (Libra over the 12th house). But I noticed how would they almost always âdemandâ in a way that they partner visits THEM and not vice versa. They rarely go the extra mile for other people, but instead want their partner to accommodate to them and compromise.
đđWomen often have a partner that has the same signs in his natal chart that her father has.
đđPisces Risings, Jupiter in the 1st house, Sagittarius Risings are the types that when they are at school, they want to be home. And when they are at home, the want to be at schoolđ When they are somewhere, they always want to be somewhere else. Almost like they are physically present there, but mentally they wish to be elsewhere. Because they have huuge fear of missing out. Yes, Pisces Risings as well, not just Sagittarius Rising.
đđVenus in the 5th house is such a party person placement. They need constant attention and validation. They also always wish to be invited even if they have no intention to show up. For them the thought really counts. Also this placement really love going to live concerts.
đđLeo over the 6th house is such a tricky placement. They just want to be appreciate for their skills, the things they know and have experienced, but they HATE a fake compliment, it really needs to be very genuine and creative. And yes, they can easily sense oneđ
đđSun in the 8th house overlay in synastry culture is being constantly surprised when you discover ânew layersâ of that personâs identity. You could also be really fascinated by how they live, express themselves through clothing, their ideas, creative projects.
đđOut of all Pisces placements, Pisces Moon I noticed is the least keen on films/movies. Most often they are not huge movie buff and their first love was music or an instrument. Movies are really more Leo territory.
đđPluto in the 1st house loves to surround themselves with people that dress well or are slim. You guys are really that obviousđ
đđLilith definitely rules your fantasies as well. Like Virgo Lilith might play with idea of seducing a coworker. Capricorn Lilith thinks of their boss, older person or someone more mature/experienced than them or someone that reminds them of one of the parents.
đđWomen see their male partner, his traits and behaviour through Sun, Mars and Saturn sign and house. Rarely they see them through Jupiter sign and house, since it would take a lot more objectivity to understand the meaning and significance of Jupiter traits in partner/husband.
đđYou know how they see âthe right person, but wrong timeâ? This connects to Solar Return chart. You might have multiple crushes one year, but you commit to that one that has the same Sun, Moon, Risings as your Rising/1st house and 7th house sign that year in your Solar Return chart. You can have Libra Rising with a bit of Scorpio over your 1st house and Aries and Taurus over your 7th house and that year you end up entering a committed partnership with Scorpio, Libra, Taurus, Aries Sun for example. Because those signs where hitting your relationship house (7th house) and your Risings sign (people you had to encounter) that year. Also they signs and planets in the 7th house show how you perceive other peopleâs behaviour towards you that year.

Money spell cauldron đ¨đđ¸
I wanted to do something more or so environmentally safe just in case I decided to toss this out bc salt is damaging to plants/animals!
In this cauldron I have :
Rice: for grounding and abundance
Egg shells: for protection
Basil: for wealth and success
Chamomile: for money and purification
Cinnamon: for money drawing and speeding up the spell
Bay leaves: attracting my intentions
Three coins: to draw in money
Homemade money anointing oil! A few drops
Before I lit the candle I visualize money flowing towards me and then I light it and let it work itâs magic while ALSO putting in the work đ
KITCHEN WITCHERY
Prosperity Bread
Ingredients:
3 1/4 cups all-purpose wheat flour
1 cup orange juice
1 1/2 tbsp sugar
1/4 tsp salt
1 1/2 tsp dry yeast
1 egg (plus one yolk for top)
1 tbsp butter, soft at room temperature
raisins, dried apricots, cherries, walnuts,
cashews
Mix the yeast with 2 tbsp of warm water, a pinch of sugar and flour. When the yeast is activated, it takes approximately 20 minutes, add it together with egg and juice to flour, mix, add sugar and salt. Knead it for 7 minutes. While kneading, say the spell. When the dough is ready, knead in the butter, then knead in fruits and nuts. Say the spell while kneading in butter and fruit, 8 times in total. Let it rise for 45 minutes, then roll the edges underneath towards center. Let it rise for 45 minutes again. Put it on a baking tray, let it rise for 30 minutes. After that brush the top with a raw egg yolk, if you like, and bake (preheat the oven at 350 F or 180C). Brushing with egg yolk will make the top like in the first and second pictures.
The spell: A grain fell upon earth, produced hundreds and thousands. The grains sprout, bread will emerge. I will go to the field, collect the grains. The grains were in earth and became bread on my table. I eat holy bread, wealthy bread. Bread in me, prosperity in me.

Hi, witches.
Many people made comments similar to this: âcute, but pls remember that if you aren't native american, you shouldn't be calling smoke cleanses smudging! also, you shouldn't be using white sage because it's going extinct and native peoples need white sage in order to use it for their ceremonies !! witchcraft is a beautiful thing but we need to be respectful of other cultures whilst practicing it âwhich makes me very sad, because as my first language is not English, for me it does not have a different meaning, so I did not realize that with this post I was disrespecting the native communities, Iâm really sorry. Also, because of my allergies, I don't usually burn anything, but if you do, please do your research so as not to damage ecosystems. âĽď¸
RECIPE: Mustard gratin with potatoes & parsnips (from Home Made Christmas by Yvette van Boven)
Serves 6 to 8Â

While stirring, allow the sauce to reduce until it has the consistency of thin yogurt. Season with the mustard, vinegar, thyme, salt and pepper. Pour the sauce over the vegetable cubes in the baking dish.
Mix the breadcrumbs with the cheese and some pepper. Sprinkle the entire dish with it. You can do all of this in advance.Â

Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C).
Bake the gratin for about 35 minutes, until the top is a nice golden brown and the sauce bubbles beautifully.

Conflict Healing Spell
You will need the following items for this spell:
⢠Blue candle
⢠Jar filled with water
⢠Lilac Incense
It may take a day or two after the confrontation to cast this spell. Light a stick or cluster of lilac incense and a blue candle in your ritual space. Take a breath and speak to the other personâs higher self, apologizing for your role in the conflict. Does not matter if you were in the right, wrong or just a bystander that was dragged into the issue. Breathe some love to the image of the person. If the person was attacking you or causing unnecessary drama, create an energetic boundary between you and this person. Visualize a strong, white barrier surrounding you and say the following loud and strong:
''I block all harm in my direction.
I reflect love and healing to you.
May I be forgiven for my deeds.
I forgive you, too.''
Repeat the spell for seven days. Spend some time thinking about the situation and your role. What in the conflict is your roll? While casting the spell, be willing to look within to heal. Approach the situation with love in your heart and you can do no wrong.
Whats left of the candle blow out and place in a jar of water. Close it tight and bury it, without breaking it.
tension soothing bath spell
- â¨đ§şđżđđ§đŠš
this bath potion is dual use, it can help release stress and tensions from your day, built up emotions and worry; but it also serves as a wonderful muscle relaxer~
[ what youâll need ]
- rose quartz
love, compassion, healing, gentle energies, comfort
- clear quartz
mental clarity, cleansing, healing, invigorating, renewal
- white candle(s)
cleansing, charging energies, healing, clarity, wish granting
- a pink candle (optional)
love, compassion, gentle energies, softens self doubts, healing
- 2 cups epsom salt
muscle relaxer, soothes tension/stress/nerves, detoxes the body of negative energies
- lavender & rosemary bundle
lavender serves to soothe, comfort, and add a soft healing love to the bath, while rosemary serves to invigorate, renew and protect your spirits and mindset
**you can toss this in the bath itself or light it and let it smoke out while you bathe or you could even wave it over yourself in the tub for the effects, your call
-
[ now what? ]
light up your candle(s) and arrange your crystals around the bath accordingly, add everything into the bath water itself that youâll be adding, and if youâre using the epsom salts make sure you use the right amount to actually get the detox benefits! i recommend letting the candle light be the only thing lighting up the bathroom but ofc thatâs not necessary if you canât/it spooks you out
-
really hope everyone enjoys this bath spell! iâm definitely gonna be getting lots of use out of this one, of course as always feel free to ask any questions about the spell/process!
energy cleansing and healing spell
-đđżâ¨đ¤đ§
this spell isnt necessarily overly complicated as far as components, but itâs a little physically involved, just a note if youâre a witch that has to worry about spoons and such, but on an okay day id say itâs perfectly doable
[ what youâll need; ]
⢠white candle
⢠light pink candle
⢠yellow candle
⢠light blue candle
⢠sage incense
⢠three small bowls/plates
⢠mortar and pestle
⢠rose petals
⢠fresh thyme
⢠sugar
⢠honey
⢠lavender water
[ steps ]
light your candles, then your incense using the white candles flame. make sure youâre catching the ash cause youâll need it later in the spell as well
in three separate bowls have your rose petals and then your thyme, then mix your sugar, honey, and lavender water into the third bowl.
place the rose bowl in front of your pink candle, charging it with self love, healing, forgiveness, and compassion.
place the thyme bowl in front of the yellow candle, charging it with healing, energy, happiness, and fulfillment.
finally, place your third bowl in front of the blue candle, charging it with soothing, healing, emotional strength, love, and gentleness.
gently grind together your petals and thyme, then add in some of the incense ash and use a bit of the lavender water to bring it to a pasty-paint-ish consistency of sorts, then add in the third bowls contents and combine, add more water if needed to keep the consistency where we need it
take the sludge and spread it across your face how you see fit, be messy if you want, get carried away, be as gentle or chaotic as you feel necessary and once youâre satisfied that everythingâs been perfectly scrubbed with your new intent, rinse it all off with nice cool water and pat dry, follow up with a lavender/rose water/tea tree toner if youâd like, and a light moisturizer â¨
đĽÂ â¨Burn it Down: Banishing Yule Fire Burning Bundleâ¨đĽ
Because this yearâs Yule fire is a funeral pyre. Burn it down.
This is a bundle of herbs similar to what youâd normally use for smoke cleansing, only instead of lighting the end, this one is tossed into your Yule Fire.
If you donât have the ability to have a fire large enough to toss herbs into, you can instead make this into and infused oil to anoint a Yule candle with or whatever you may use to represent the burning of the past year. ***
Gather:
đĽ Something that represents what you want to burn down and leave behind in the dark. It could be anything from a piece of paper with things written on it, to a cord with knots tied in it each representing a different thing to burn, or a tarot card that represents what youâre moving on from (though keep in mind, whatever you use will be destroyed in the fire.) đĽ Pine or fir boughs. Enough to suite the size of your fire. I usually use 6-8" pieces for a campfire. Or, if youâre making this into an anointing oil, enough needles to fill your jar halfway. đĽ Hawthorn thorns. For heart protection. Any funeral pyre brings grief, regardless of whatâs burning down. Protect your heart and keep your boundaries with thorns enough to lay throughout your bundle. đĽ Rosemary Sprigs. Banishing, cleansing, clearing the mind. đĽ Cinnamon stick(s) - banishing but also sweetening the energy, softening the blow. đĽ Black Candle đĽ Natural cord of some sort, twine, cotton cord or hemp.
- Light your candle and do whatever ritual openings you usually do.
- Lay your thing to burn down, evergreen boughs, rosemary sprigs, and cinnamon stick(s,) out so that theyâre in a âlogâ or bundle shape that you could get your hands around tightly to bind it up with a cord.
- Start by tying the cord around one end and then slowly and snugly wrap the cord around the bundle working from one end to the other and back. You can tie knots along the way to help keep it securely bound together. As you wrap the cord around, every so often lay a hawthorn thorn into the bundle, careful to place them in a way that you wonât prick your hands.
- After itâs all bound and finished, drip wax from the black candle all over the bundle. Caution of the hot wax on your skin though, unless thatâs your kind of thing.
- Then at whatever point in your Yule fire ritual itâs appropriate, toss in the bundle and watch it burn.
- Alternatively, if youâre making an infused oil, itâs best to dry your plant material first to avoid mold growth in your finished oil. Â Cinnamon is a possible skin irritant so if you plan on using this anointing oil on your skin, either do a test patch first, or skip the cinnamon stick. Steep the herbs in enough apricot kernel oil (or other carrier oil) to cover the plant material by an inch or so for 4-6 weeks, then strain out the plant material, and you have a shelf-stable anointing oil for candles or your body (external use only.) Apricot kernel oil will go rancid in about a year, so only make as much as youâll use up! You can further preserve your oil with vitamin e or other skin-safe preservative. Use this to dress your yule candle and witch it burn all the way down.
- You could also grind the herbal ingredients, along with the ash from burning the âsomething that represents what you want to burn downâ in your yule fire, into a powder and use it as a powder if that suits your needs. Though evergreen needles are /very/ resinous, so if youâre using an herb grinder of any kind, keep in mind it will get sticky and is difficult to clean afterwards. Which is why I have one electric grinder for coffee, and one for medicinal/edible herbs, that way my coffee doesnât taste like pine in the morning.. though that doesnât sound terrible in all honesty.Â
*** Always practice fire safety! Know how to anoint candles with oil /safely/ and have a fire extinguisher near by because oil fires canât be put out with water. If youâre having an outdoor fire, make sure youâre following your regionâs bylaws and have water near by!
Stay Curious, Witches
There is a sadness in this world.
