Witch-Craft

I don’t know about all of you, but I love collecting tea cups and plants. So what better way to combine my interests than planting in a tea cup! 

Happy May Day!

A Note on Faith

Don’t be afraid that new devotees may cause your gods and goddesses to have less time with you. 

Remember: The gods and goddesses love does not divide, it multiplies

What We Can Learn From Spring

Practicing my craft/hellenic polytheism has among other things, given me a deeper appreciation of nature and the seasons. Now that winter has passed there’s much we can learn from spring!

1: No matter how harsh the winter is, spring will always come if you’re willing to give it time. 

2: Just because winter has passed doesn’t mean the weather will always be perfect and that’s alright. Rain is necessary to help crops and nature grow just as hardships are needed to help us grow.

3: Spring weather is unpredictable but if you can accept the surprises you just might find it’s far more enjoyable than expecting an ‘aethstetic’ spring. The same can be applied to the spontaneous nature of our lives.  

4: Nature doesn’t come to life all at once after winter. Some plants take their time while others spring up immediately. You don’t expect everything to come together at once during spring so don’t hold yourself to that standard either. 

5: Spring is a fleeting season, it is not here for long so go out and enjoy it in all of it’s unpredictable beauty!

A Poem About Loss For Polytheists

This is a poem I wrote regarding a loss that I’ve recently experienced and I’m dedicating it to Hades. I hope that you all also enjoy it and maybe you’ll find it helpful. 

Death is not always bloody 

It is not always strain 

Sometimes it comes to take away 

One’s suffering and pain. 

Help me gods to embrace the change 

And the loss that I now feel  

For I know that they now rest with you 

And someday I will heal

Sugar Scrub Recipe/Uses

Sugar scrub is one of my favourite things because it’s fun, hygienic, and a subtle form of witchcraft/devotion if you’re in the broom closet.

Ingredients-

1: 1 Cup Sugar 

2: 1/2 Cup Oil (Coconut or Olive)

3: Essential Oils

4: (optional) Food Coloring  

Directions-

1: If using coconut oil, melt it in the microwave. 

2: Mix the sugar and oil together. If it’s too wet add more sugar, if it’s too dry add more oil. 

3: Mix in your favourite essential oil or combination of oils. (I used cinnamon and orange for positivity!) 

4: If you would like add in a corresponding food dye. (I added little yellow)

Uses (but not limited to)-

1: Softens dry hands (winter can be rough!)

2: Apply after shaving for super smooth legs 

3: A nice offering to a deity. Especially one with connections to beauty and self care/love.

Overcome Hardships Pine Spell

Purpose: This is a spell that can be used to help one persevere through hard times and overcome difficulties. Pine is commonly used to represent rebirth and conquering hardships which makes it very suitable for this spell.

Tools: pine branches, a fire to burn them in.

The Spell 

First: Collect your pine branches. They can be however large or small you want them to be. (If you have a tree from the holidays you could that) Each will represent a hardship in your life. 

Second: Start your fire. Make sure to be careful not to burn yourself or any of your surrounding area. 

Third: Take a branch and hold it in front of you. Visualize the struggles you have been facing as a heavy blanket holding you down. Then allow it to slide off you with great ease as it is completely absorbed into the branch. 

Fourth: Drop the branch into the fire and let it be consumed by the flames along with whatever is holding you back. 

Finally: Repeat with as many times as you would like!

I was wondering if I could get a pendulum reading perhaps? Will I get into my top college/is it a good fit for me? (Either one :)) my initials are KD and I’m a Pisces sun gem moon! Thank you 💗

Hello, and thank you so much for asking me! <3

So first I consulted the pendulum regarding whether or not the college of your choice is a good fit for you and the results came in as yes. Second I asked if you will get accepted into one of your top colleges and the answer came in slightly shaky. So I asked a second time and it was a definite yes. I wish you the best of luck in college! :)

Altar Tips For The Closeted Devotee

As someone who lives in an incredibly christian household I know how tough it is to work magic/worship your gods and goddesses. Remember that the gods and goddesses won’t be mad at you because of your situation, and will appreciate any little thing you can do for them. So without further adieu, here are some tips!

1: Mint tin alter. Making a mini altar is a great way to keep a little reminder of your works/faith. While they can’t hold too much they can be easily hidden and are very inconspicuous.

2: If you’re still in high school or below chances are you have a locker. I’ve found that the little top shelf is a great place to put an altar. Not only is is locked up, it’s out of the house. You can take things to school little by little and set it up there. If anyone asks why you have (say a crystal) in your locker you can always say it’s for decoration. 

3: Online alters are another option that would allow you to hide your faith/practice from prying and judgemental eyes. Sure it’s not physical, but it’s still a great option.

4: If you have a jewelry box you know no one else uses you could dedicate a drawer to your altar. Similarly you could use a desk drawer.

If the discovery of your altar could put you in a dangerous situation remember to be cautious. Always remember to be safe in your practice!
