Current situation of the world is difficult and I hope everyone is doing okay. While being stuck in the house is unusual and boring for most it gives you a great opportunity to dedicate some time to your path: gather new information, clense your tarot deck, make some moon water etc. I decided to use this time to read this amazing book published this year, with exercises following each chapter! The author ,Mat Auryn, is one of my spiritual role models and he is truly amazing in his work. I warmly recommend this book.

Thought this would be important to pass around!

[illusiumwitch]

Great book list!!!

[illusiumwitch]

Took some pictures of the moon last night while charging my crystals and making some moon water. How did you spend your Super Full Moon? 🌕✨

[diaryofabadwitch]

[illusiumwitch]

Seems like Death card has something to say 🔮

3 cards tarot spread ideas:

1. Past-Present-Future

2. The nature - The cause - The solution

3. Current situation - Obstacle - Advice

4. Situation - Action - Outcome

5. Context - Where to focus - Outcome

6. What I think - What I feel - What I do

[illusiumwitch]

Before/ after spell boost

The moon has awoken

With the sleep of the sun

The light has been broken

The spell has begun

I consider this to be a really catchy and nice saying to boost up my spells. This one would probably be a good fit with elemental and moon magic (I think green witches will love it), but I use it for almost everything. If you repost please give credit :D

[flowerais-deactivated20211031]

how to be like the moon 🌙

glow softly like a painting

be quiet, but powerful enough to move seas

be a light in someone’s darkness

go through phases of rebirth

inspire solitude and mystery

have beauty that can’t be captured

[illusiumwitch]

2020 is hard, but this is a good new years resolution. Be there for others, and good will come back to you.  Be pure like the moon

Just a little introduction from me. I have been practising for 4 years now, and a friend told me that Tumblr has great witch community so I decided to give it a try. I am open to meet new people and I am open to help if I can somehow so text me :) . My practise circles a lot around nature, the elements, the moon, but also divination, candle magic, aura reading etc. I am also an Empath which has it's ups and downs but I love it! Hope I fit well in this community.
