Drown In You Guilt Curse

Intention

This is not a little curse to do on someone who pissed you off this is a curse for someone close to you who had catastrophic effects on your life. someone who hurt you in so many ways that you will never be the same again. This curse is to project the suffering they caused you back onto them , it is fueled by anger and hate. In a sense this is a guilt curse .This curse is based in your own pain and suffering so it can not be sent back on you if the person also practices magick. They can’t curse you with pain you already know.

What You Need 

A poppet/doll made to look like the intended target.

A container or jar larger then the poppet/doll

Another container/jar preferably something biodegradable this container will need to be buried at some point)

Black paint or food coloring

A picture of the target , works better if its a picture of them before everything went bad. A picture of them when you still considered them a friend/whatever they were to you

A fire safe dish 

Lighter or matches

Red chalk/paint (Preferably something easily washed away)

A candle that is a color or scent that makes you happy. Or just use pink/white as a default. 

Steps

Make your poppet. Make it as close to the person’s current appearance as you can. Button eyes the color of their eyes, yarn the color of their hair, cloth the color of their skin, ect ect . Put it to the side

Fill your first container with water and pour in some black paint/food color to tint the water black. Put this to the side

On your space or a piece of paper on your space draw/paint in red sigils for guilt, pain, suffering, whatever you feel matches your intention.

 Take the picture and start to rip it into smaller and smaller pieces. With each rip say things like “You will feel the pain you made me feel” “you will suffer as I have suffered “ “there will be no forgiveness for your actions”  “I will never recognize you as a friend” “I will not look back and remember what you were,what we were” and so on and so forth, basically saying anything that you feel applies to the situation and the pain they caused you until you can’t rip the picture anymore. Most of this process is to erase the memories that make you want them back, the memories that make you miss what you had and that’s why you use a picture from before everything changed

During the picture ripening process allow your anger, hate, resentment, and bitterness to build up and give you power and energy.

Once you’ve finished ripping up the picture light the remains on fire, this might take a few tries. Wait until the fire builds up and is at its peak.

Take the poppet/doll you made hold it’s face far enough above the fire so that it’s not burning yet and say anything along the lines of “i will never recognize any good in you, there will be no recognition or forgiveness because the pain you caused me outways the good” or anything you feel applies. Then lower the poppet/dolls face into the flames burning away your positive recognition. You will never recognize them as a friend/lover/whatever. Be careful about this part, don’t brn yourself or set your house on fire.

Lift the doll/poppets face from the fire and slowly sink the entire doll/poppet into the container of black water. Saying “May you drown in your guilt, drown in my pain” Toss the burnt pictures remains in the water was well . Let it sit in this container for as long as you feel necessary

Transfer the doll and most of the water to the second container (leaving some water in the first container and seal the lid. Make sure there is enough water in the container to leak out and wash away your sigils. Charging and activating them. If there isn’t drip a little of the water on them yourself.

Place your hands on either side of the container or hold it in your hands. Begin to recall all the ways this person hurt you. With each memory visualize a black thread/rope/chain leaving your body and wrapping itself tightly around the container. Do this until your run out of negative memories.

Seal the contained with wax from the pink/white/what ever represents happiness to you candle. This is to seal the pain and hate they have caused in you with happiness. If the wax starts to char/get ash in it and the wax begins to turn black/grey it’s fine because this can represent your happiness being their misery. 

Barry the container and pour the rest of the water from the first container on top of the spot. finally say “this curse is final and can not be broken” It won’t make sure it will absolutely never be broken but it might help.

Witchy tip ~ The “me” candle

If you get tired easily when doing your workings, consecrate a candle to yourself and light it every time you are doing something witchy/pagany. The goal here is to use the candle as a power bank, raising its energy so your own doesn’t run low. 

Differently than working candles, commonly used to improve your magick’s potency, the “me” candle is programmed to improve *your* energy while you are working on your magick. It can become a precious piece for practitioners that, as me, have more often than not low spoons days. 

Extra tip: dress your candle with essential oils that boost your energy. Bergamot and lemongrass are my favorite ones for this use!

Stuffed Animals in Magic

I’m an adult and I still LOVE stuffed animals. While I can usually resist a little better now than when I was a child, I’m still tempted to buy one every time there’s an opportunity. Here’s some examples of how to use your inanimate furry friends in the craft:

🦁Sew a dream pouch inside of a teddy bear to encourage prophetic dreams! You could also tweak this to make it help with astral travel.

🐯Enchant it with all sorts of protection spells, set it in the corner of your room as a guardian to ward off malevolent spirits.

🐻Stuff with lavender and other calming herbs, hold it and smell it to calm and cleanse yourself.

🦁Make it a spirit vessel, and allow spirits to visit you inside the animal. (This can also allow you to cuddle with your spirit companions.)

🐯Use it as a poppet! Especially for cursing. Get a stuffed animal you don’t care about and treat it as you would any clay poppet (except now, you can stuff it with things too instead of just surrounding it.) You also have the added advantage of being able to smack it against the wall without causing serious damage.

🐻Draw a sigil on the stuffed animal. Perhaps one for creativity, and you play with the stuffed animal a little to get the creative juices flowing!

🦁Place a stuffed version of an animal associated with a deity in your altar. Hecate likes dogs, for example. I’m sure she wouldn’t mind that being there.

🐯 Enchant stuffed animals with good fortunes before donating them to children’s hospitals or nonprofits

🐻 Make a spell out of the act of making one yourself, sewing intent into every stitch.

🦁Use them in any spell to represent childhood, innocence, comfort, sleep, imagination, and simple pleasures.

feel free to add more!

When I was in high school I hand sewed a monster while have one of the biggest mental breakdowns I’ve had and he became my way to defuse my depression. I didn’t add anything to it but it absorbed the empty feeling and gave me comfort in return. I still have Fred but I don’t need as much now.

Another idea is make a spell pouch and bring it to build a bear and put it inside before they sew it up for you. This is a cool idea for kids to get rid of nightmares.

New Moon Purification Bath Recipe/Spell

Add the following to your bath water: 8 Anise seeds 2 Bay leaves 2 pinches lavender 3 pinches peppermint 1&½ pinch dandelion 1 pinch sage small pinch sea salt

Though this could work as just a purification bath, I believe it’s best to do it on a New Moon (I did this bath on the Black Moon last week), so as to purify yourself before the moon begins waxing once more. For added kick, throw in some moon water, or perhaps rain water if you have it lying around.

I lit a black and a white candle to purge myself of the negative energies around me and for an added benefit of purification and protection. I also left my quartz piece in the tub with me as well.

Let the herbs take the energies from you and after you finish soaking, shower to wash everything away and take the ‘impurities’ down the drain!

Unusual Herbs

Recently, as I was reading through several books, I came across quite a few ingredients that I had either never heard of or was unsure of their exact nature. While the herbs compiled below are not necessarily “unusual,” they are ones of which I did not have extensive knowledge. Hopefully this list can be of help to anyone new to the craft, if not at least interesting reference material. 

Asafoetida: Also known as “devil’s dung” due to its foul smell, asafoetida is a type of resin derived from a perennial herb native to Iran and Afghanistan. Today, it is mainly used as a powdered seasoning in India, as it tastes like garlic or onions when heated. Its magical powers include exorcism, purification, and protection. Careful when storing, as the odour may contaminate nearby herbs. 

Bistort: Also referred to as “snake weed,” bistort is a flowering plant native to Europe, as well as North and West Asia. Its long flowers are different shades of pink. The American bistort (or smokeweed) has white to pinkish blooms. This plant’s magical uses include physic powers and fertility. When combined with frankincense, you can improve physic powers, aid in divination, or drive out poltergeists.

Calamus: May be called “sweet flag,” “sweet rush,” “sweet cane,” “sweet grass,” “sweet root,” or “sweet sedge.” A type of wetland plant, its magical uses include luck, healing, money, and protection. The powdered root can be used in healing incenses and sachets. Use caution, this plant may be carcinogenic.

Cinquefoil: Of the two species listed in Cunningham’s Encyclopaedia of Magical Herbs, one is native to the eastern parts of US and Canada, while another is native to Eurasia and Northern Africa. Cinquefoil has blooms that can be white or yellow and leaves looking similar to those on strawberry plants. Its magical uses include money, protection, prophetic dreams, and sleep. 

Deerstongue: Sometimes called “wild vanilla” because the leaves, when crushed or dried, produce the scent of vanilla. The leaves can be used to flavour tobacco. Native to North America, this herb grows pretty purple florets, and it is this attribute which leads some to call it by another name, “blazing star.” Its magical uses are lust and psychic powers. 

Galangal:  Lesser galangal (Alpinia officinarum) is native to China, while greater galangal (Alpinia galanga) is native to South Asia and Indonesia. May be referred to as “chewing John” or “Low John the Conqueror,” this herb is a member of the ginger family. Its magical uses include protection, lust, health, money, psychic powers, and hex-breaking. If galangal is not available, ginger may be substituted. 

Grains of Paradise: This peppery-like spice is native to West Africa and, along with galangal, belongs to the ginger family. Its powers include lust, luck, love, money, and wishes. While holding some grains of paradise in your hands, make a wish, and then throw a little of the herb to each direction, beginning in the north and ending in the west. 

Heliotrope: Careful, this plant is poisonous! The flowers of “cherry pie” or “turnsole” can be white or purple and have the fragrance of vanilla. Garden heliotrope originates from Peru, while common heliotrope is native to Europe, North Africa, and Asia. This herb can be used for exorcism, prophetic dreams, healing, wealth, and invisibility. 

Niaouli: Most commonly used as an essential oil, niaouli is a type of tree covered in papery bark from the genus melaleuca, of “tea tree” fame. Niaouli oil is made from the leaves and twigs of the tree. Though native to Papua New Guinea, New Caledonia, and parts of Australia, it is considered a weed in the United States. Appropriate for use in a “protective” oil blend. 

Petitgrain: Another essential oil, petitgrain is made from the leaves and twigs of the bitter orange tree, thus giving it a woodsy, citrus scent. This would also work well in a “protective” oil blend. 

Stephanotis: A flowering plant with waxy, white blooms and leathery leaves, the particular species “Madagascar jasmine” is popular in wedding bouquets. Its essential oil has the magical property of friendship. 

Tansy: Sometimes referred to as “golden buttons” because of the appearance of its flowers. It is native to Eurasia but invasive in some parts of North America and is toxic if ingested. Tansy can be planted to repel ants, and magically, it has the powers of health and longevity. 

Ti: This plant is native to southeastern Asia, Papua New Guinea, Melanesia, northeastern Australia, and parts of Polynesia, but was introduced to Hawaii by Polynesian settlers and greatly utilised there. “Ki” in Hawaiian, this plant is also referred to as “good luck plant.” Its associated deities include Kāne, Lono, and Pele. Magically, ti is used for protection and healing. Green ti planted around the house creates a protective barrier. 

Tuberose: A richly scented, night-blooming white flower native to Mexico. Tuberose absolute is true tuberose essential oil, while others are synthesised for the scent. If the fragrance bouquet is all you need, you can create this with the oils of ylang-ylang, rose, jasmine, and a hint of neroli. Magically used in love-attracting mixtures. 

Woodruff: Strongly scented, herbaceous plant sometimes referred to as “sweet woodruff,” “master of the woods,” or “wild baby’s breath.” Commercially, dried woodruff is used as pot-pourri or moth deterrent, but magically, it is used for victory, protection, and money.

Witchyness for less!

You know its not mentioned nearly enough that a great way to reduce cost for witchy things is to learn what’s around you, like what trees and shrubs and lil plants grow normally. Learning these things changed how I practice, adapting spells and rituals to what is free and foragable. Plus for me its a personal touch and added devotional activity, collecting and learning. Just a thought for low spoons witches out there

Witchy Shizzle

Does anyone else love candle magick? Here’s some ideas and things.

1) If you use a candle in a spell to get rid of negative energy, give it a ‘clean burn’ by letting it burn without being used for a spell.

2) Don’t let anyone tell you that you can’t use scented candles. You can use scented candles. If the scent corresponds with the intent, then it might make the working stronger.

3) I had this things bookmarked about star sigils awhile back. And stars are giant burning balls of gas. So why not burn a star sigil to release energy or as an offering?

4) ‘Sigils’ a lot of the time autocorrects to 'vigils’. So why not sit a vigil with the stars and burn some nice candles. And sigils?

5) Don’t be ashamed if you don’t have a lot of fancy-pantsy glass bottles for your spells. I have my storm water in a coke bottle.

6) Back on topic, if you don’t have a lot of fancy candle holders it’s okay! Maybe if you’re the arts and crafts type like me this could be your excuse to take a pottery class!

7) Crocheting is the freaking best thing ever. No magick to add, just a statement.

8) Knitting is also the best thing ever.

I’m getting off topic so I’ll wrap this up. Have a great day guys!

messy witch aesthetic

-sigils scribbled on wrists, on used napkins, on the backs of receipts -hastily mumbling glamours while you get ready because you’re late again -always forgetting to keep track of the moon’s cycle -constantly performing finding-things spells because the floor of your room is an abomination and where on earth did that chunk of amethyst go?? -knowing that if you don’t write a spell down/tag it properly/put it in a place where you’ll find it then it’ll be lost forever -standing in the shower for forty minutes and only remembering the glamours/spells you wanted to work on after you get out -picking up every coin you see and dropping them in an old jar as a money spell -how am i already out of cinnamon i literally just bought some -enchanting your phone alarm so that maybe you’ll actually get out of bed on the first try for once -always having salt on the floor -i have thirty variations of the same spell tag on tumblr but the spell i’m looking for isn’t under any of them oh my god -never being able to decide which method for drawing sigils you like best, so all of them are a complete mish-mash -half-melted candles everywhere -starting a new notebook every two weeks and never finishing one -wanting to have a consistent practice and aesthetic but never managing to find the time so you guess you’ll just stick to reading your tarot cards on the floor in front of the TV while eating chicken nuggets

Witch tip

Being outside on a windy day is a good way to cleanse yourself. Visualize the wind passing through you and carrying away any negative energy clinging to you.
