Imbolc is February 1-2
What is Imbolc?
Imbolc is the preparation for the coming spring. The light is slowly returning and the new year has begun. It is a great time to gather seeds for planting, start planning new projects, and cleaning out old, unwanted energy.

Goal-Achieving Proposal for Witches
I’m listening to Atomic Habits by James Clear right now (as an audiobook), and his theory on how identity impacts habit-creation intrigued me. He claims that if you identify as a person who performs a healthy habit–such as saying “I’m a healthy eater” rather than “I’m trying to eat healthy”–you are more likely to fulfill that habit. Our self-identity motivates our actions, which in turn gives us evidence to reinforce our identity. When we write, we’re writers. We are writers because we have written works. The action and identity must support each other. I’m thinking that this can apply to magical paths, especially for those just starting out.
One of the most common questions I receive is where an aspiring magician can start. Many have a vague goal in mind, such as “I want to work with the ocean”. That’s a start. But what if you narrow it to what kind of person you want to become? Or more specifically, what kind of magician you want to become? A good way to determine this is to fill in this sentence: “I want to be a ______ who ______________.”
I’ll use the ‘working with the ocean’ example. “I want to be a sea witch.” A sea witch who what? “I want to be a sea witch who heals using water magic.” This narrows down what kind of person you’re aiming to become: an ocean magician, and a healer. It also gives you a starting point in your studies. To achieve this goal, you’ll want to focus on healing folklore that involves the sea or water.
In order for this to really work, you’ll need to keep the subordinate clause action-based. In other words, stay away from the phrase “who is”. “I want to be a ceremonial magician who is knowledgeable and powerful” doesn’t give you a good starting point. It’s too vague. Instead, make it action-based: “I want to be a ceremonial magician who gains prosperity through planetory magic.” That gives you a direction.
Some more useful examples of this:
“I want to be a death witch who heals souls of the dead.”
“I want to be a chaote who achieves gnosis consistently to improve my spell results.”
“I want to be a spirit worker who communicates with my local plant spirits for protection and aid in my spellwork.”
The more specific you can get, the better idea you’ll have of your current goal. These goals can also change over time as well, so it may benefit you to fill out this sentence every couple of months.
I feel the need to clarify that this exercise is only a starting point. I know tumblr is big on the whole “call yourself a witch and you are one” thing, but I think it’s common sense that just saying you’re effective cursemage doesn’t automatically make you good at cursing. You do have to put in the study and effort consistently. This exercise is designed to give you the motivation and direction required to begin your work.
This is just a brainstorming idea. Feel free to discard or use as you will. Hope this helps, and see you lovelies soon!
in case you needed to hear this today:
🌷 it will get better, even though it feels like u will feel this way forever.
🌼 there are people who found you beautiful or radiant and you never knew it.
🌻 you have survived all your worst days.
💛 bad days are always temporary.
🌹you’re not behind. trust the timing of your life.
🌱 you are growing through this.
🌻 right now, you’re exactly where you are meant to be.
⛅️ every day is a new chance to start again.
🌸 it’s never too late to change, it’s not a race.
🌼 take things one day at a time. you will get there.

❄️✧・゚✨Winter witchy things to do✨*・°❄️
Winter is now approaching and its such a powerful time for weather magic, focusing on magic within the home and self reflection. Here’s some witchy winter things to do!
Collecting ❄️ Collect pine cones for protection and to make the house smell good! You can use pine cone ‘thorns’ for protection or use them to leave offerings to nature as bird feeders! All you need is peanut butter and seeds for birds to eat.
❄️Winter water for winter magic! Snow water can correspond with patience, growth and purity. Blizzard water can be used for curses, banishing and concealing(since blizzards can bury things in snow). Icicle water for protection and defensive magic. Ice rain for petty hexes (think of uncomfortable falling debris constantly hitting you from the sky), or in a positive/neutral light- the accumulation of something.
Snow and Ice Magic
❄️Snow Sentinels to protect the home! You can mold them to look like ordinary snowmen or shape a monster from the snow! I dunno I would much prefer having a dramatic snow troll emerging from the icy depths of my front lawn then a jolly looking fellow but if your neighbors will start asking questions I guess just go for the usual unsuspecting looking snow man. Use them to ward unwanted energy and guests! Build a snowman around a witch jar if you really want to add extra magic and power to your snow sentinel!
❄️Make Ice lanterns especially if you celebrate Imbolc, Candlemas, Candle Day the Winter Crossquarter or (as Upthewitchypunx celebrates) Candlemark! It’s a beautiful and naturesque way to make your yard a glow in the dark times of winter. There are several ways to make it! (1, 2- preferred, 3, 4). Also it’s my Winter Crossquarter personal tradition to welcome the light back by putting out a new lantern every day after Yule and lighting it so that there is a new light. (often this accumulates up to 40 but it makes for a beautiful show). (Since I can only fit so many lanterns in my freezer and I don’t always have time to make more I usually end up making 10-15 and the rest are interior electric candles- just to give you some realistic obstacles to expect if you want to part take in that).
❄️ You can also make Ice Capsules the similar way to making ice lanterns in a balloon or in a cup and sealing your spells in there to be disposed of in nature. Sometimes witches like to bury spells in jars but that might not be the best thing for nature especially if you want to do that for most of your spells. There are great alternatives to burying your spell like in a wrapped leaf or in light paper that can break down easily, but you can be extra creative and seal them in an ice ball to be tucked away under snow.
❄️Cut out snowflakes for papercraft magic! You can write spells in them, or cut out symbols when they are folded up to make a kaleidoscopic piece. Envision something ideally something you’d want to last or stick around for. Cast this spell by dissolving it in snow water, freezing it in snow water and sticking it in the freezer or burying it in the snow outside.
❄️Charge your water safe crystals and tools in the snow! Gather some snow in a bowl and bring it to your altar to place your water-proof items within!
❄️If you work with the winter spirits make sweet ice offerings. Mix sugar water (heat it up first to get it well infused) and with an ice tray pour some in and maybe add some natural coloring or even small sliced fruit or berries to freeze! Pop the cubes out (bonus if you have cute ice trays like star shapes) and leave them out as offerings! You can also make stormsorceress’s snow fairy icecream to offer to nature outside as well!
❄️If you use Thawing Salt to for the ice on your property, you can bless it and also do magic to ward away negativity from around your home (since you usually have to spread it around your walkways) it makes for great wards to protect from icy roads and unpleasant energy!
❄️Frost Scrying can be done by divining the frost on icy windows!
Self Care
❄️Winter is a time of self reflection, rest and hibernation. Don’t feel down if most of what you do this season is stay under the covers and sleep, it’s the season to slow down and relax. Do some self reflection, take time to meditate if you are trapped in doors. There are some really relaxing winter meditation sound tracks I love to listen to.
❄️Winter is also the season of physical self care or else it will get the best of your skin and hair. I see winter as Spa season cause it’s the best time to go to a sauna house and also a season I focus the most on moisturization. Make body butters with coconut oil or shea butter (depending on how dry your skin gets), add warming massage oil in your magical mixtures to give your skin a nice sense of warmth as you apply your body butters to begin your day! I love to use sweet warm scents in my body lotions such as cinnamon (which is also warming), and nutmeg and fragrance oils such as sugar cookie, caramel and brown sugar.
❄️ I like to use refreshing winter scents like peppermint and cedar oil in balms to apply on my chest when my nose is stuffy. Peppermint helps to clear up nasal passages. Make sure to mix only a little in cocobutter because it can be icy and uncomfortable if there is too much in the ratio.
❄️Enchant your Chapstick with protection! If you want to have a lip-pain free season, then you will be making the most with your chapstick! Add glamour magic to it if you want to use your chapstick to be more heard while speaking, have more appealing lips, whatever you like.
❄️Bless your clothing with protection. You can coat the dryer balls with cinnamon oil and also cedar for warmth (also cinnamon and cedar smells like a Christmas tree). You can use any oil that won’t stain clothing (most good essential oils won’t if it’s not directly on it) that you associate with warmth and protection to put on the dryer balls and it will help fluff out your sweaters, make them smell great and be an easy discreet way for glamour magic!
Cooking
❄️Witches love to make spells with infused waters but you can do spells for teas since it’s basically hot infused water! Bless your thermos. Every morning make yourself a magical tea blend for your day before you leave for work or school. Peppermint for clarity, cleanliness; cinnamon spice for fiery energy, warmth, passion; black tea for alert energy, power; orange spice for zesty creativity; pomegranate for love and sensuality; nutmeg for attractiveness; ginger for protection and grounding etc. there’s many correspondences for these listed but also the majority of these help fight colds and lift the spirit so it’s good to drink. You can also use fresh fruit to add in the hot water and vitamin C packets if you need an extra boost!
❄️The Crockpot was basically made for this season! It’s so practical and is like a modern slowcooking cauldron. I will post again the list of fantastic crock pot recipes for fall and winter.
❄️If you love lattes and making latte art I would highly suggest getting a Milk Wand! It’s a milk frother wand that can froth milk at a high speed (like a super highspeed whisk) and if you have the skill you can make latte sigils into your morning drink to give boost to your day. A fantastic idea queercraft posted is to steam Kava (and other herbs can work) into your milk to make morning latte. Its a great way to begin the day on a relaxed note.
❄️ Herbal Remedies can be helpful if you catch a scratchy throat or stuffy nose and want to help alleviate the common cold. You can check out this short and sweet list by Recreational Witchcraft of common herbal remedies that are practical to use in this season!
Home Decorations
❄️Tree Decorations can be a great source of magic! If you celebrate Yule, Winter Solstice or Christmas and will get a tree make salt dough ornaments! You can make them very magical and add sigils for joy on them. You can also make spell bobbles for joy and peace! This video will show you how to craft a witch’s ball out of an empty tree ornament bobble for protection!
❄️Make a pine besom for protection. Most will think it’s Christmas decoration. Add holy for longevity, mistletoe for love, and currants for prosperity!
❄️Make Potpourri to help freshen the home! The air in the home can get stale due to lack of circulation since it’s too cold to open windows. Also day to day cleansing with refreshing peppermint, eucalyptus or pine helps refresh the air!
❄️ Oil candles can be a great way to create a spell but also help freshen the home without crafting a potpourri every time. They also make great gifts!
PLEASE HELP
Guys I’m actually begging. If I don’t come up with $500 I lose my college education. I can’t payment plan because it’s actually from an old payment plan that I couldn’t pay. I draw– please, just ask for a drawing if you donate. I have to get it by 1/23 or they’ll drop me entirely. My medical bills are so high and I have a huge surgery coming up and I can’t lose this.
PLEASE reblog if you can’t donate but I am scared and stressed out.
paypal.me/ZeeLiv
I’ve been given a total of $47 by three very generous people (one of which is anonymous) and I’m crying a little at work because I’m so happy. I still need 453, but I just wanted to update this post to say thank you and also boost it again for more help.

it really is sad how unwilling some of the people on this website are to heal from their mental illnesses. i have posted several times therapist approved coping methods & thought processes to help make the pain of depression & mental illness lessen & have been met with backlash, been told i’m “neurotypical,” have been told i don’t understand real mental illness, & so many similar things.
why?
why would you WANT to suffer? is it because you don’t know who you would be without mental illness? is it because you formed an identity around your illness & it’s “who you are” now? do you feel like you can’t be saved?
because the truth is, there’s no one who is too far gone. the you without all the suffering is worth finding.
please learn to be gentle with yourselves.

I've been off and on reading Positive Magic an Occult Self-Help, I'm only a few chapters in and its quite outdated, but it's giving me ideas to work on and other things to look into when I'm further into the book and I feel ready to start another book. So far its been about the historic aspect of the occult, and a little about the author. I'm gonna make it through more by next week and hopefully by then I'll have more insight on what I'm reading.
Its been a wild week. Not sure what's to come next in the near future but I'm.. just chillin', I guess. I'm getting the hang of teaching, and scheduling out projects without getting overwhelmed, and I'll be working more closely with budgeting either tomorrow or after this weekend. Things are tight financially, but with some planning, patience, and work I think I can get to a comfortable place again. I didn't really know how much to budget for my puppy to get shot updates and neutered, but I haven't gone negative and I get paid tomorrow, my lovely brother got gas for my car, so I'm grateful for things not being absolutely terrible in this moment.
I don't have work work tomorrow but I do have housework, and still getting money from selling stuff, and ine commission if they have their payment ready. Other than that, I had a wonderful few days with my boyfriend staying over and doing art with me. That's probably one of my top favorite activities I enjoy with others, but especially him.
Overall, weird ups and downs, but nothing scary to overthink more than I already have. I've done what I could.
Plans for the following week:
Read, read, read. I finally have the time, I need to use it, I'd like to get to at least the halfway point of my current book, so Ihave more to write about it; pick the next book
Art projects; I have one 5x5in I'm almost done with, 3 small sewing projects I need to finish before starting more, pastel and adjust a drawing.
Exercise; will be going for 30 minutes on Tuesday, and planning for a longer timeframe on Thursday if possible.
Plan a photoshoot for January.
Grading schoolwork and working on wire experiments I can do here and there.

3 Ways to Magically Reclaim Yourself
3 Ways to Magically Reclaim Yourself - Discover how to shake that lost feeling and find yourself again.
Ever been lost in the sea of yourself? You just feel restless and confused and sad. Hopeless yet desperate to move forward. Hoping to find something that will help you keep your head above water yet finding yourself anchored with no where to go.
It’s a crappy feeling. When you spend several weeks, months, or years with barren fields, so to speak, it’s called a fallow time. This can happen to…
