Advice For Baby Witches💫

Don’t worry about knowing your path right away. If a certain path calls you, then great! But feel free to explore a bit

You don’t need all these fancy supplies to be a “good witch” just use whatever you have on hand!

Pretty much anything in a spell can be substituted with a white candle, moon water, or quartz

All plants have magickal properties! Everything from pine needles to grass can be used in spells!

Always fact check things, because even though someone like me might do a lot of research on the things they post, we can still be wrong

At the end of the day, you are no less of a witch than anyone else is

The Spell of Milk and Honey

Last night I had a friend who was having a rough time of it. I performed this spell to help send her some restfulness and caring feelings

You will need :

Milk (any kind)

Honey (all natural preferred)

A way to heat the milk

A space to perform the magic

Heres what I did:

First, I cast a circle

I poured the milk into a treasured mug and heated it in the microwave (I'm in college and cauldrons are frowned upon by campus officials)

As the milk was heating I focused on the feelings of restfulness and calm I wanted to send my friend

After the milk was done, I stirred in the honey clockwise, and as I did so I thought of how I wanted my friend to internalize the feelings of love and sweetness I was sending her

After stirring, I continued to focus on my intentions for her as I imbibed the drink. I thought about sending her feelings of calmness, love, and deservedness.

I then finished the drink, closed the circle, and washed the cup out

I'm new to making spells, even ones this simple. Please let me know what you think! It would be greatly appreciated.

Types of Divination Master list

I want to create a master list of all types of Divination, otherwise known as “fortune telling,” psychic readings, etc. But not all are the same! When I learn of other types, I will add them here. Also, feel free to re-blog with any I’ve forgotten, and I’ll add them to the list (with credit to you next to it). 🖤

✨ The Clairs ✨

- Clairvoyance: When you can see visuals during a reading, have visions, sometimes prophetic dreams.

- Clairaudience: When you can hear sounds during a reading. You may also be able to hear spirits or guides of someone you’re giving a reading to.

- Claircognizance: When you just have a knowing of something. Could be that something is going to happen, or during a reading it seems like you’re just given the answer. (This is what I use the most in my Intuitive Readings)

- Clairsentience: When you have a physical feeling on your body. It could be a tingling sensation, goosebumps, and actual tap, etc.

- Clairempathy: When you can feel what the other person is feeling emotionally, or how a situation feels emotionally.

- Clairsalience: When you can clearly smell something that isn’t a part of your environment. This could be a perfume of a deceased loved one, the smell of bread baking in an abandoned bakery, etc.

- Clairgustance: when you can taste something that is not actually in your mouth. This could happen if you are channeling someone, in a haunted bar, etc.

- Clairtangecy: when you can touch a physical object and and then almost immediately no something that has happened previously with this item, I know a lot about a person that wasn’t previously known by touching their hand, etc. If you’ve seen the show Charmed, Phoebe has this ability.

✨ Cartomancy ✨

Using cards to give a reading. Typically the intuition of the person giving the reading would be used, as well. They can be drawn one at a time or used in a multi card spread.

- Tarot: A deck of 78 cards with a Major Arcana (22) and Minor Arcana (56). Many people use tarot, and there are many different designs to choose from. The Rider-Waitte deck is the most popular, but I would suggest finding one that really speaks to you.

- Oracle: there are so many different types of oracle cards from Faerie Oracle, Moonology Oracle, to Angel Oracle. These cards can have as many as the creator wants in the deck, and can be used pretty much the same as tarot cards. I use a Moonology Oracle Card Deck for all of my card readings at the moment.

- Playing Cards: For broom closeted witches or people who aren’t able to purchase a set of tarot or oracle cards can actually use a deck of playing cards, instead. The deck of playing cards won’t have as many cards as a tarot deck usually has oh, and there are no cards to represent the Major Arcana but they can still be used for divination. Each of the different suits of playing cards corresponds to a suit of tarot cards.

Hearts = Cups

Spades = Swords

Diamonds = Pentacles

Clubs = Wands

✨ Tasseography ✨

When someone drinks a cup of tea or coffee, then the reader will turn their cup upside down, turn it a number of times on the saucer, then read the formations on the inside of the cup.

- Tea Leaves: Using loose tea leaves, preferably green, black, or white tea. The person having the reading will drink the brewed tea with the loose leaves in it. Once finished, you will ask your question, swirl the excess liquid and leaves around 3 times, then place the cup upside on the saucer for at least 1 minute. After this the tea leaf reader will interpret the images inside your cup.

- Coffee Grounds: Typically done in Turkey using a strong, velvet-like Turkish coffee. The person having the reading will be told to drink with intent, and once they are finished, they should place the cup upside on the sauce and spin it 3 times. Then let it sit for about 1 min. The coffee grounds reader will then interpret the images on the inside of the cup.

✨ Bibliomancy ✨

Using books to receive Divine guidance. Choose a book, ask your question, then flip to a random page with your eyes closed and read that page or a paragraph you point to for your answer.

- Sacred Bibliomancy: I’m not sure if this is actually what it’s called, but that’s how I’m distinguishing between the different types. In Sacred Bibliomancy, you would use a sacred book to you like the Bible, Quoran, The Tao te Ching, etc. You would use a book that is sacred to your spirituality.

- Secular Bibliomancy: With this one you would choose any book that calls out to you, ask your question, etc. This could be a book on your bookshelf, at the book store, library, etc. This one does not have to correspond with your spirituality, or any type of spirituality.

✨ Lithomancy ✨

The use of stones and crystals for divination. These would typically be chosen at random, and the reader would interpret what that some means for you and your question.

- Runes: Stones that are engraved or written on with the Nordic alphabet. I don’t know a ton about runes, but I want to learn more.

- Crystals: Natural stones that have energetic and magical properties to them. When you draw these, the magical property correlates directly to what you’re asking about. Let’s say if you drew a Rose Quartz when you were asking about if love is coming your way. This crystal would indicate that yes, love is coming, because Rose Quartz represents love.

I currently give readings using my intuitive abilities (claircognizance, clairvoyance) and Moonology Oracle Cards. Message me to request a reading! <3

“Vampire’s Reflection” Counter-Curse

If you suspect someone of using baneful magick against you, or you have a mundane person fucking with your life that you can’t exactly use a banishment spell on, use this deflective counter-curse.

Materials:

1. Sigil of the Vampire (you can use mine, seen in the post below, or your own)

2. Foggy Mirror

3. Yourself

Procedure:

1. Run a hot shower and allow your mirror to fog. You may opt to keep the water running while you work.

2. Draw the Sigil of the Vampire on the mirror with your finger.

3. If you know the name of your target, write it through the sigil. Whether you know the name or not, speak/write upon the mirror your curse:

“I drain my enemies (names, if you know them) of their energy as they seek to do me harm. I return to them their wickedness and as they suffer, I grow strong.”

4. Repeat as often as you feel is necessary and release your intent. Leave the sigil and name(s) in tact as the mirror defogs and go live your life.

*The objective of this curse is a counter measure, which means that it will only affect the targets if they are actively attacking you, which should discourage them within moments of trying.

*To dispel the curse, use a cleansing water of your choice to wash the mirror. I have a mixture of sea salt, black pepper, garlic salt, and sun-charged water.

[i-am-the-nature-witch]

Lemon Test

Have I been cursed? Only one way to find out! The lemon test, much like the lemon curse, uses a lemon to find out whether or not you have been cursed: Buy one lemon. Anoint a black slow burning candle with an oil with a scent that reminds you of the person who you believe is cursed. Cut the lemon in half and write the name of the person on a small piece of paper and place it on one half of the lemon. Lemons that are cut and left out of the refrigerator only last one day before they start to go bad. leave the lemon halves on the table next to the anointed candle that is burning. Be very concise and ask if the person has been cursed and then leave the candle to burn with the lemon next to it. When the candle burns out, if the lemon with the small piece of paper on it is significantly more “decayed” than the other half of the lemon. Then there is a curse. If they look the same, you’re fine. When you are done with the lemon, rub it in salt and dispose of it. This won’t get rid of the curse if there is one. Just helps with determining.

[withcraftandwitches]

Substituting supplies

Let’s be real, we’ve all had everything ready to start our spell or make our potion only to realise we’ve forgotten a vital ingredient or supply. Here are some common substitutes for supplies in witchcraft!

• don’t have coloured candles: take any normal white candle and carve out the colours name you wish to use and then take a marker in that colour and fill in the carving lines

• don’t have infused water: use essential oils e.g. if you need rose water simply use rose essential oil, just do not consume any of these oils if you wish to make a potion that’s drinkable

• don’t have the air element: when using spells with elements and you can’t move your whole spell outside to get the air element, simply light an incense cone or stick and use the smoke as your air element

• don’t have salt to cast circles: use things like twigs or crystals, it’ll all work just the same

• don’t have a familiar: use a photo of an animal or if you have a pet you feel could be a familiar, just please do not actually preform anything physical or violent or sacrificial with your pet, be kind animal abuse is not cool, and be sure to thank them after.

• don’t have a crystal: substitute it with another that inter laps in the same properties or just use clear quarts, it’s a very good “all rounder” Stone

• don’t have a wand: use a stick or something that looks similar to a wand that you feel a strong magickal connection with, you can even craft the stick into your own well decorated wand

• don’t have sage: if feel like this is a little obvious but .. just use incense, it’ll give the same affect

• don’t have a spell for what you’re looking for: create one, using methods from other spells create your own or use song lyrics as your spell

Hope some of these helped! Happy enchanting! 🖤✨

Brain fog lifting

Little witchy ways to help with brain fog (UPG). Brain fog is basically when you struggle with mental clarity, memory, focus, low energy, grumpiness, and the like. It’s no fun!

Using Crystals:

Pick a clear crystal, like quartz. Hold it to your temples/forehead and let it draw out the fog. Picture the fog being pulled from your head and swirling into the crystal, and the coldness of the crystal bringing clarity to your mind. (You can also do this by touching a crystal in your pocket if you’re in public!)

Using Water:

Dip your fingers in snow/moon water (tap water will do if needed) and touch any points on your face that you feel like the fog is affecting it (if that makes sense?!) I like to do: a drop on my chin, a drop on each cheekbone, one on my forehead and on both temples, and on my eyelids as well. With each drop, say a word you would like to bring back (clarity, focus, understanding, comprehension, memory, retrieval, ~ability to see~).

Using Air:

Get fresh air (even through a cracked window) and breathe deeply for one minute. Envision it swirling in your mind and clearing away any muckiness. 

Using Sigils:

Find sigils for brain fog, clarity, memory, etc. and draw them in a place that you feel connects to your mind. For me, it’s my pulse points on my inner wrist (since drawing sigils on your face can be a hassle!

Non-witchy advice:

(Aka boring “have you thought about changing your entire lifestyle?” stuffs)

Evaluate your diet, and consider if there may be any foods influencing it. Have you been tested for food allergies? It’s worth considering!

Try to do light exercise at least once a day. For me this involves a little extra walking on campus, or some stretches in the morning.

Less sugary drinks, more water. 

Give yourself at least 10-30 minutes before bed to wind down/think about the day/de-stress - even if it means you go to bed a little bit later. It can help sleep if you’re really busy and stressed.

Get a planner/make a to-do list. 

Getting up at the first alarm is better for your clarity than hitting snooze six times (but I am guilty of the latter).

Doing Magic Without Casting Spells

When I was a witch I thought “doing spells” was the height of all magic. After I left witchcraft I found myself doing spells less and less until I just… stopped. But this didn’t mean my life was without magic. The form my active magic took just changed.

I do magic with talismans now. Others may call them “altars in a box.” I call them talismans ^-^

Once a talisman is built, it works forever as long as it is properly charged. In the photograph is the charging of my personal prosperity talisman. 

Talismans are a low-spoon magical solution. The creation, use, and upkeep of a talisman requires no personal energy beyond putting a few objects in a container. You do not need to charge talismans with your personal energy.

A talisman is, in my definition, a magical trinket which can manipulate energies in your favor. In this article I am talking about container talismans.

Container talismans are built like puzzles. Each object added holds a special meaning and will affect the energies of the talisman in a special way. In my example money talisman, I have added:

Lodestone, to draw money, prosperity, and wealth.

Lodestone oil, to draw money, prosperity, and wealth.

Coins, to represent what I desire.

Gold pebbles, to represent what I desire.

A jar of iolite crystals with a $1000 store price tag, to represent great wealth (dressed with lodestone oil).

A bottle of pure gold flakes, to represent great wealth.

A charm bag of basil, to get the spirit ally Basil to work on my behalf for profit.

A sigil to save money, for obvious reasons!

A small jar of marijuana, a gesture of sacrifice to give back to the spirit world, and to represent what I desire.

My last dollar until payday, a gesture of sacrifice to give back to the spirit world, and to represent what I desire.

This talisman brings me a lot of spending money and I am rarely ever out (except now, which is why I am recharging and donating my last dollar!).

On the other hand, talismans are a practical low-fund solution because one can literally be made out of paper slips stuffed in to a jar. No need to get fancy!

Try building different container talismans for prosperity, relationships, wishes, and protection. 

Try adding dried herbs and stones of traditional correspondences.

Add representation of spirit allies who will help.

Include poems, images, sigils, or references of your goals and dreams.

Talismans can be simple or complex. Make them to your tastes and the preferences of the spirits you work with.

To build your own talisman, select an appropriate container and cleanse it using your favorite method. Cleanse objects and state their purpose as you add them to the container. “This dried rose represents eternal love within my heart.” “This quartz chip is to empower the other elements of the talisman.” And so on :)

When your talisman is assembled, charge it by placing candles on or near it and lighting them with intent to draw down power. Or, place it in the Sun and Moonlight for 24 hours, asking Nature to rise from below and complete the trinity of empowerment. In the picture, I placed a candle in the middle of the talisman jar. I dressed the candle with lodestone oil for extra power.

Place talismans on an altar or safe space where it will not be disturbed. Allow it to work for you; I see results within an hour typically but I have many allies so don’t be bothered if things don’t work for you so quickly! Give up to 4 weeks to see real changes; up to 2 weeks to see signs of change. Speak to it regularly. Give things time to manifest. Charge regularly or as needed (I charge mine once every… 2 years on average). 

If you want to include spirits to help you in your talisman, try this method of obtaining a spirit friend from a crystal (modify from the ‘protection’ theme to your own talisman purposes) or this method for making a contract with a spirit.

Spell Loopholes

Wording a spell correctly is extremely important! We’ve all heard the stories of someone who cast a spell and technically had it come true, but in a way that wasn’t what they actually wanted at all! Here’s a list of common “loopholes” spells will take to get the job done, and how to make sure you get what you want!

🕯Taking its time- “I want money,” you tell the Universe, hoping to get some help with rent. Well, rent comes and there’s no extra cash in sight! Then, two weeks later, a surprise wad of cash all but lands in your lap. The spell came true, but not in time for when it mattered. This is easily fixed by adding “…by the end of the month,” or specifying what the money is for, which in this case was this month’s rent.

🕯No help needed- “I want money,” you say again. Magic will often take the path of least resistance, so if you’ve already got a paycheck on the way, the spell might not do much besides make sure it doesn’t get lost. There. Money. It can be good to specify that you want your spell to work in addition to everything you’re already doing!

🕯 Bare minimum- This time from your money spell, it arrives on time from an unexpected source! But it’s a quarter you found on the ground. Maybe three quarters. Not much help! If your intent would require the money to be close to a certain amount or any other specific like that, let it be known! The universe isn’t there to make assumptions.

🕯 For the worst- Let’s say you have two friends that have been flirting, so you cast a nice little spell to let any mutual interest between them blossom into a relationship and save them some trouble. It happens, but it turns out they do NOT work well with each other. They are interested in each other, but argue constantly and bring out the worst in each other. The relationship is hurting them both. You had the absolute best of intentions, but there was no way of knowing that would happen! This is why a lot of witches include the phrase, “for the highest good” in their spells, as a failsafe for any unexpected pitfalls like this that may be lurking. The universe will see them but doesn’t know to care unless you specify.

🕯Another layer- Once I made a dream bear to bring me more dreams. Well, I had lots more dreams, but couldn’t remember any of them! I didn’t think that was something I needed to specify. Make sure you hit every point you need to be satisfied with a result.

As a general rule, if my spell includes a prayer or petition of any sort, I take a few minutes and comb through it for stuff like this beforehand. What am I specifying? What am I leaving up to interpretation? Could any of that manifest in a way I would be unhappy with? Take a little time before you start casting to smooth out all those wrinkles! Best of wishes!
