Baby witch diary - Dreams
My dreams are usually pretty much ordinary and don’t feel like something connected with my witch experience but this night I definitely had a very interesting dream! I already wrote about it in my grimoire but wanted to share here.
I quite often have a dream where I go by the stairs to my flat but then near my floor, the stairs are broken and I can’t really get to my door. So, in the dream, I have to climb and so on. It is not a nightmare but I just feel bad after I wake up, This time it was a similar dream but different! The stairs were sealed after the third floor but I just kept moving and destroyed the ‘ceiling’. And after that, I again met broken stairs, so I had to climb. But I saw something on my hands and wrists, like black marks or lines and they got brighter when I tried harder. And inside my dream, I knew they are helping me to get to the door and I did it! Without usual panic and anxiety inside the dream. Then I said something like “Yeah, I already got used to it” and woke up!
Even after I woke up, I didn’t feel bad or anxious as I usually do after dreams like that. On the contrary, I felt more enthusiastic about the day and the problems I have to deal with. And I also felt that it totally has something to do with my witchery and that I just had to write it into my grimoire as fast as I can.
Baby witch diary
Today I tried the hair knot spell (from this wonderful blog @andromedagrey) I changed the incantation to suit my needs but it is largely based on the one from the post, so the main credit is not mine. My intent was to get me through a meeting about my bachelor thesis and to make it (and me) look nice and organized. It worked marvellously!
First of all, I hid a strand of my hair closer to the head, so it was not even seen. When I got to university, I nailed the small talk with other students (which I usually don’t) and then I was really persuasive at the meeting itself. I am usually quite fine by myself but I needed an additional sense of structure and good work. And I got it!
But as soon as get out of the university building, my head started to hurt and I felt tired, so I untied the strand of hair in the street. So, an important lesson is that this spell works (yay!) but you shouldn’t be greedy about its opportunities.
I put my version of incantation below if someone needs it for their papers. But again, the basis for it is not mine! You can always change it to suit your needs! Also, now I probably have to look for a spell which can do the same effect but on my thesis itself. Not a huge effect. Mostly, my thesis is fine, just to add a little more glamour and sense of ‘yeah, nice paper!’ Anyone knows something like it?
Incantation for this spell:
By knot of one, I’ll face the sun,
By knot of two, I turn what’s due,
By knot of three, all great they see,
By knot of four, my paper’s worth more,
By knot of five, today I thrive,
By knot of six, my paper I fix,
By knot of seven, harsh thoughts I lessen,
By knot of eight, they know I’m great,
By knot of nine, good grade is mine.
“ With spells in her hair...”
This one’s for any witches with long(er) hair. If you’ve got close-cut hair, this won’t really work so well for you.
Ever heard of the witch’s ladder knot spell? If you don’t know, you’re more or less tying 9 knots in a rope, while spouting an incantation.
“By knot of one, the spell’s begun,
By knot of two, it cometh true,
By knot of three, thus shall it be,
By knot of four, tis strengthened more,
By knot of five, the spell’s alive,
By knot of six, this spell I fix,
By knot of seven, events I’ll leaven,
By knot of eight, it will be fate,
By knot of nine, what’s done is mine.”
Basically, you’re going to do this with your hair.
You don’t have to worry if your hair isn’t long enough for nine knots. I’ve found that you can even do one knot per curl, and just tie nine knots throughout your hair. It’ll be just as effective.
Now, keep in mind, a witch’s ladder knot spell is known to be extra powerful, because not only do you have a chant to follow, but a physical repeating pattern to help manifest it into reality. Because of this, I don’t suggest having any especially strong intentions (ie, weaving some sort of protection spell that sends a curse at offensive parties) because it’s basically a part of your body. And it’s on your head. You really don’t want anything to backfire.
So try a little glamour spell, blessing for body positivity, or good luck charm. Change the words around in the chant to suit your needs. I came up with the words as I knotted my hair, but if you need a little time to figure out what you want to say, go ahead and write it out.
In a traditional ladder knot spell, you go back and forth between ends trying knots, however, since your hair is attached to your head, just tie knots one after another, almost like a braid, then tie it at the end with an elastic to hold it in place.
You can spell one strand of hair (it looks really cool wrapped around the elastic of a ponytail), or you can weave your whole head up with spells!
If you put all your hair up in knot spells before bed, in the morning, when you take off the elastics and let the ladders come loose, you’ll be left with wildly witchy curls that resonate beautiful energy, and were literally formed with magick!
Idea for incantation:
“By knot of one, I’ll face the sun,
By knot of two, I’ll love me too,
By knot of three, I’m proud to be me,
By knot of four, I am worth more,
By knot of five, this day I’ll survive,
By knot of six, my heart I’ll fix,
By knot of seven, harsh thoughts I’ll lessen,
By knot of eight, I know I’m great,
By knot of nine, this life is mine.”
I’ve found this method to be very effective, give it a try and share with me how it worked for you!
Inexpensive Witch Items for your craft #1
This will be my first post on places to get inexpensive items for you!
DOLLAR TREE!!! I can not explain my love for this store to be honest. Now it may be an obvious store for budget friendly people but I know many people may not think about going there for items for your altar, spells, etc but it is my go to place for all of my items! I will list below all of my favorite items you can get from there! Also they always get in new items all the time so I go quite frequently to see what I can pick up! And of course everything is $1 so to be honest it can’t get any better than that!
SALTS: 2lb boxes of sea salt, regular table salt, and they will even sometimes have pink Himalayan sea salt! Do I even have to mention why this is useful? Well I will anyway! Salt is like the boss of protection and purification. Use it in baths, spells, throw it around the house to keep negative things out, use it when you cast circles, etc. Salt is the bomb I my opinion. And why not get a huge box of it for $1?
SPICES AND HERBS: they have amazing spices to be honest. (Not just to use for cooking which I do) but they have cinnamon, parsley, ground sage, Basil, oregano, ground cloves, All spice, Ginger, etc. You can use these in jar spells, dream sachets, cooking spells, etc. They are fantastic especially for beginner witches who don’t want to spend tons on dried herbs or can’t find them locally outside in the wild or like those who live in a big city far from lots of nature where it’s hard to grow them yourself… Or for those who don’t have as much of a green thumb!
CANDLES!!! : THIS is one of my favorite sections at the dollar tree. You can probably get a better deal for bulk tea light candles somewhere else like Walmart but the dollar tree has amazing tall pillar candles, Scented candles, cute jar candles, Mason jar candles which obviously you can re-use for spells or storage! They have candles in different colors as well! For those who don’t like much flame they have great battery operated candles as well!
GLASS CONTAINERS AND JARS: THEY HAVE SO MANY GLASS OPTIONS! I love finding glass bowls, jars, vases, cups, etc you name it. All can be used for your altar for decor, spell work, collecting water, mixing stuff in, and anything else your little witchy heart desires to use for a glass container!
FOOD ITEMS: *PLEASE be aware to look at expiration dates and read labels. In my experience I’ve had no negative ones as of yet and I’m very sensitive to food and such* I Love getting my baking soda, sugar for offerings or spell jars, candies for offerings, sweets for the fae, jelly (I love their preserves they are delicious! The strawberry and raspberry ones are a house staple), Crackers, unsweetened apple sauce (it’s fantastic), teas (LOVEEEE THE TEAS they have fruit teas, camomile tea, green tea, black tea, and more) these are fabulous to use in spell work or just to drink, and mainly anything a kitchen witch or just a witch in general wants to use for offerings. *I do not advise on getting any meat or dairy products for obvious reasons. Though their vegan spring rolls are my go-to and the dark chocolate covered banana slices are also amazing in the freezer section along with their frozen fruit and vegetables I always make sure to get the ones grown in the USA. * Fruit infuser tumbler cups! Need I say more?
CRAFT SUPPLIES: GLITTER, PENS, PENCILS, STICKERS, TAPE, FLORAL WIRE, FAKE FLOWERS, WREATH WIRE, FLORAL FOAM, WOODEN DOWELS, GLUE, ROCKS, SHELLS, SAND, YOU NAME IT ITS ALL THERE!!!! Anything you could possibly need for your journal, spell books, spells, etc. Everything is there!
BATH SUPPLIES: GLAMOUR, RESTORATING, AND SELF LOVE BATHS HELLO! they sell Epsom salt, good bubble baths, bath loofas, scrubs, soaps, anything your heart would want for a bath spell! I love getting my favorite brown sugar vanilla bath soap mix it with some Epsom salt and sea salt throw in some green or black tea and have myself a self love and clearing bath!
There are a lot more wonderful things that can be found at your local dollar tree! Those are all the top categories that came to my mind. Next blog post will be on online websites that have inexpensive things for my lovely witches out there! Sending blessings to you all!
Simple Protection Amulet
This is an enchantment spell I wrote a while ago for that lil extra protection boost. I’ve done this spell three times, for three different people (including myself), and it’s worked every time. This spell is especially good for baby witches and closet witches. Keep in mind that this isn’t a super strong spell, it’s kind of like the first piece of armour you buy in a video game. Although it’s not particularly powerful, it’s definitely one of my favourite charms - I like to take it with me when I go travelling, or when I stay the night at someone’s house, so that if I start sensing negative energies I can wear it and have some instant protection magic happening! (note: i have included extra steps for wiccans - just ignore them if you’re not wiccan; although obviously, wiccans are fully-welcome to use the non-wiccan method if they wish to do so)
⛥ gather: black pepper (protection, inner strength, warding), whole cloves (protection, curse-breaking), salt (protection), any protective crystal (e.g. snowflake obsidian, fire agate, black tourmaline, etc; this item is optional), a small bowl, a necklace* to enchant
⛥ cast a circle, if you wish to (totally optional)
⛥ if you’re wiccan, call upon the god and goddess, and give them an offering (e.g. seeds, bread, fresh juice) and ask for them to assist you with this spell
⛥ mix the pepper, cloves and salt together in a bowl - the person who will be wearing the amulet should stir using their finger (on their dominant hand) to mix in their energies
⛥ next, the person who will be wearing the amulet should bury the necklace in the mixture
⛥ wave your hand over the bowl once, anti-clockwise, and say: wiccan version i ask the God and the Goddess, the all-father and all-mother, to bless this necklace, so that the wearer, (say name), may be protected from ill & injury. witch version by cleansing salt and earth-grown herb, beware, destructive beings of woe! you are kept from (wearer’s name), by this object’s midnight glow ⛥ wave your hand over the bowl once, clockwise, to seal the spell
⛥ (wiccans, thank the god & goddess and dismiss them)
⛥ you can now remove the amulet from the bowl, and dispose of the herbs/salt inside (keeping the crystal, obviously)
*it should be noted that any other piece of jewelry can be used: a ring, a bracelet, earrings, a brooch, etc.

10 Ways to Enchant Your Breakfast: Everyday Witchcraft
✨Use herbs that match your intent for the day in an omelette or scram: basil for harmony and warding, parsley for protection, Rosemary for matters of the heart, etc.
✨Sigil infused Pancakes. This can be done a number of ways. If you’re fancy, you can cook it into the pancake by doing pancake art with the batter in a piping bag, or you can cook it in with chocolate chips or berries. You can also simply do the sigil afterwards with some syrup or other toppings.
✨Enjoy a magical tea with your morning meal. Bonus, read the leaves to see how your day will go, and anything to look forward to or watch out for.
✨Keep something constant in your meal each morning, whether it be making the same order at a coffee shop, or sitting in the same place to eat, and use the familiarity and constance of that to ease stress and bring about stability during the rest of your day
✨Find a food that makes you feel great and use it to aid glamours when you want to feel more beautiful or confident.
✨Do you have a lucky number or number correspondences that match your intention for the day? Try cutting your food into that many pieces, dividing it up into groups of that many pieces, or chewing each bite that many times as you focus on your intention.
✨Use some color magic by choosing brightly colored fruits that match your intention: strawberries for vitality, oranges for self expression, blueberries for tranquility, and so on.
✨Share some food with your deities. It can be easy to rush and get stressed in the morning, but if you can make some time to talk to your deities in the morning, it can really brighten up your day. Offer a little of your food to them as well, if that’s something they like.
✨If you’re someone who likes to make tinctures or other preserves, you could try canning some magical jam and jelly mixtures to use on the daily.
✨Just have time for some cereal or toast? Sprinkle a little cinnamon sugar on top to sweeten your words during the day and get people to listen to you. Use salt and pepper the same way for protection through the day.
How to Enchant an Object
1. Always start with intent. What is the goal of the enchantment? Beauty? Fear? Love? Once decided, gather your ingredients. Remember that they can be physical, such as dried herbs or crystals, or it can be your own energy.
2. Select an object to enchant. I find that jewelry works very well with enchantments, but almost any object will do. Personally, I believe that the material of the object you are enchanting will affect how long the spell lasts (I’ve found that metal holds it the longest).
3. Pick a time to do the spell. Depending on your beliefs, the time of day, lunar cycle, or day of week may strengthen or weaken the effects of your enchantment.
4. Place the object amid your spell components. So, if using physical components, place it in a glass bowl (or the floor, a hole in the ground, etc.) with your ingredients. If using energy, place it in your hands, or alternatively, hold your hands over the object (note: or another body part. It doesn’t have to be hands. I have done enchantments that are completed with a kiss, or require stomping. Again, it all depends on the intent).
5. Regardless of the type of ingredients you are using, imagine that your selected object is filling with new powers. The energy from your body - or from your ingredients - is being sucked out and absorbed. What color is this energy? Does it move quickly or slowly? Does it make a sound, or give off a smell? How do you feel imaging it? If it were to talk, what would it say? Know the energy. When you feel as though the object you are enchanting is teeming with new powers, gently bring your mind back to the present. Your enchantment is complete.
Studying spell
I came up with a small spell for studying and finding the mental energy to do it. (It is *almost* my first spell but I tried it and it helped! I hope, it can help others too)
Materials:
- your favourite fruit to eat
- fresh/cold water
- a candle
A spell:
1. Pick up your favourite fruit which you’re gonna it. Clean it under the water if you need
2. Put a glass of water near it and light up a candle (if it helps you to do the spell or channel the energy. You can do it without a candle in the library or the school, it’ll look like you’re just having a snack)
3. Take a bite, drink water and then read an incantation
With fresh water and fresh fruits
I will go to knowledge roots.
I will learn and I will write
And my thoughts will rise and fly.
Mental energy I’ll find
Let this be my shining guide.
4. Eat, drink and repeat until you’re done with the fruit (please, don’t read aloud while you eat/drink, because you can choke)
5. Put another glass of water near your studying place and take a sip every time you feel like you need to recharge your brain (it’ll also help you to stay hydrated)
Here’s a quick sigil wallpaper I made last night!
I am safe from anything that I believe could harm me.
I’ve really been into constellation sigils! My ask is open if you would like a cosmic sigil 🖤
“I feel awake” | “I feel mentally better”
“Bring good fortune” | “I am protected”

“once she had been a mortal and spoken with human voice,
but now she lives in the salt seas and the gods give her
the honour that is her due. She it was who now felt compassion
for Odysseus the persecuted wanderer; she flew up from
the waves as a seagull might, sat on the strong-bound raft
and spoke”
