[gayrudeboys]

i hate to ask bc i’m pretty sure you’ve answered this a lot but do you have any tips for beginner witches? ( as in j u s t starting out ) tysm

this is so goddamn old so whoever sent this is probably either fairly experienced now or didn’t take up witchcraft at this point but since i’m here…

✨- if you’re living with people who don’t know you’re practicing, you can shove a crystal in basically anything to carry around with you (quick slightly nsfw disclaimer: crystals are extremely porous and anyone that tries to tell you that crystals can go anywhere near your genitals is lying, you will get an infection.)

✨- intention setting Is magic. carrying something around with the intention of protection is a form of defensive magic, baths with a cleansing intention are magic. magic is whatever you put yourself into.

✨- you can buy cooking sage (regular sage, not white sage) at just straight up grocery stores, along with bay leaves, thyme, and most herbs you’ll see in spells. make sure if you get fresh herbs from a store, dry them out because if you leave them in whatever packaging you got them in, they will absorb the moisture and get moldy (learned from experience sadly)

✨- tarot cards don’t have to be a gift or passed down to you. i know some witches will tell you that and if that’s how you go about your practice, go ahead, but it’s not necessary. you can buy your own cards, you’ll bond with whichever deck you do, nothing special about it.

✨- sleep with new items you use in your practice under your pillow or by your bed, it’s a good simple way to connect with your tools so you work better with them and they work better with you

✨- everything is a give and take, thank your tools after using them, their energies are just as important as yours, you wouldn’t like it if you did all this stuff to help someone and they just tossed you on a shelf with no appreciation

✨- and remember to go easy on yourself. don’t expect yourself to practice everyday constantly with no breaks, you’re a human not a witchcraft machine honey. your practice is always with you in some way or another, no one expects you to spend every waking hour pumping out spell jars.

anyways, sorry for the long post, i know this isn’t my witchcraft blog so not all of you will be interested in this but i hope this helps any new witches out there <3

Dangerous Herbs

Listed below are dangerous herbs and herbal combination and explanations as to why they are dangerous. Do not try any of these herbs, orally, on the skin, or in any other way ever (or during pregnancy or nursing, if listed as such).

*Some of the herbs mentioned are safe in small doses are are written as such. Other herbs are toxic in small doses or any amount. This is not a complete list.

Belladonna - Nightshade, bittersweet nightshade is an extremely poisonous herb and is absolutely deadly. It is related to Henbane. Side effects can include dry mouth, enlarged pupils, blurred vision, red dry skin, fever, fast heartbeat, inability to urinate or sweat, hallucinations, spasms, mental problems, convulsions, and coma.

Blue Cohosh - Can cause miscarriages, especially during early pregnancy. This herbs in combination with other herbs has been used as an aborfacient. It works by loosening and relaxing the uterine muscles. This is why it is often suggested as a remedy for pms and menopause.

Black Cohosh -  Can cause miscarriages, especially during early pregnancy. This herbs in combination with other herbs has been used as an aborfacient. It works by loosening and relaxing the uterine muscles. This is why it is often suggested as a remedy for pms and menopause. 

Chaparral - This herb can cause serious liver damage, liver failure, and acute hepatitis. 

Comfrey - Comfrey can be taken in small doses for upset stomach and pms, but using a lot is dangerous. Comfrey contains pyrrolizidine alkaloids, a type of poison that causes liver and kidney failure as well as cancer. They can be absorbed through the skin as well. 

The amount of PAs found in comfrey changes according to the time of harvesting and the age of the plant. The roots have 10 times higher amounts of PAs than the leaves.

Devil’s Claw -  Harpagophytum, means “hook plant” in Greek. Devil’s claw causes additive effects in many medications. It can cause changes in blood pressure as well.

Eucalyptus - Eucalyptus can not be consumed. Taking 3.5 mL of undiluted oil can be fatal.Even applying too much to the skin and absorbing large amounts is dangerous. (Use it very lightly, dilute it, or use a humidifier.) Signs of eucalyptus poisoning might include stomach pain and burning, dizziness, muscle weakness, small eye pupils, feelings of suffocation, and some others. Eucalyptus changes how many medicines break down in the liver.

Foxglove - Poisoning by this herb can cause stomach upset, small eye pupils, blurred vision, strong slow pulse, nausea, vomiting, dizziness, excessive urination, fatigue, muscle weakness and tremors, stupor, confusion, convulsions, abnormal heartbeats, and death. Long-term use of foxglove can lead to symptoms of toxicity, including visual halos, yellow-green vision, and stomach upset.

Golden Seal - This herb is a uterotonic; brain damage (kernicterus) has developed in newborn infants exposed to goldenseal. Do not use goldenseal during pregnancy or breast-feeding.

Hemlock -  Neuromuscular blockage can occur to the point of death if it blocks the respiratory muscles.

Henbane - Side effects include dry mouth, red skin, constipation, overheating, reduced sweating, vision disturbances, increased heart rate, urination problems, drowsiness, restlessness, hallucinations, delirium, manic episodes, and death. Henbane is poisonous and not safe for self-medication.

Kava - In the South Pacific, kava is a popular social drink, similar to alcohol in Western societies. It is used by some to treat anxiety, restlessness, and insomnia, but like many medicines used to treat these types of issues, Kava runs the risk of being too much of a ‘downer - oversedation.’ It can make you unable to operate machinery, fatigued, and worsen depression. Large doses can also effect the liver and cause yellowing of the eyes. Also, some of the dangerous chemicals in kava can pass into breast milk and might hurt a breast-fed infant. Avoid this herb if you have Parkinson’s disease or if you will undergo or have recently undergone anaesthesia as it effects the central nervous system. Alcohol, sedatives, and benzodiazepines interact with downers.

Licorice Root - This tasty herb, when taken in high doses, may cause tiredness, absence of a menstrual period in women, headache, water and sodium retention, and decreased sexual interest and function in men. It may also cause early delivery in pregnant women and miscarriage in early pregnancy. This root has also been seen effecting hormone levels in the body and interacts with oestrogen. It also seems to rid the body or potassium. It can also cause heart failure.

Mistletoe (European) - Can cause chills vomiting, diarrhea, cramping, and other side effects. Short-term, frequent use of European mistletoe might cause liver damage. Lowers blood pressure.

Mugwort - This herb is dangerous in large quantities. Thujone, a ketone and a monoterpene that occurs naturally in two diastereomeric forms:-α-thujone and-β-thujone is present in wormwood Thujones cause a slight high and a feeling of relaxation, which is why it is enjoyed by smokers and drinkers (as a tincture or bitters), can also cause breakdown of muscle, nightmares, seizures, dizziness, confusion, numbness of arms and legs, paralysis, and death. The chemical is also said to be responsible for absinthe’s hallucinogenic effects.

Mugwort might cause a miscarriage because it can start menstruation and also cause the uterus to contract.

Pennyroyal - Pennyroyal has been used as an antificant and can also kill pregnant mothers. Do not use this herb as a method for miscarriage. It can cause irreversible damage to the liver and kidneys, nervous system, brain, and cam cause dizziness, confusion, seizures, and death.

Peony - Peony can cause uterine contractions and is unsafe to use during pregnancy. It also slows blood clotting.

St. John’s Wort - This herb interacts with SSRIs and other types of medications for the treatment of depression. In bipolar, bipolar depression, mania, manic depression, and other related disorders, St. John’s wort can trigger a major upswing or manic episode in patients. This herb also interacts with birth control.

Wormwood - Wormwood one of the main ingredients in the alcoholic beverage, Absinthe. The latin Absinthium comes from the ancient greek word apsínthion, which some claim translates to “Undrinkable”, referencing the herb’s extreme bitter flavor. It is closely related to mugwort, which is toxic in large doses, but wormwood is even more so. The herbs also contained thujones. See Mugwort.

Valerian - This herb, especially the root, can cause oversedation. Alcohol, sedatives, and benzodiazepines interact with downers. Valerian can cause some side effects such as headache, excitability, uneasiness, and even insomnia in some people. A few people feel sluggish in the morning after taking valerian, especially at higher doses. It’s best not to drive or operate dangerous machinery after taking valerian. 

Wintergreen - This type of mint can be dangerous in high doses. Taking wintergreen oil or large amounts of wintergreen leaf can cause ringing in the ears, nausea, vomiting, diarrhoea, headache, stomach pain, and confusion.

[occultacademia]

Support other women. Support women who don’t even like you. Show them some kindness. Wish them the best in life. Hype them up. You have nothing to gain from disliking them back. You hate me, but you’re my sister, and I’m routing for you.

More Urban Witch things

A follow up of my original post (actually originally posted on another side blog @/bluebelle-the-aesthete) here are some urban witchcraft things. You can take these seriously or just as an aesthetic, none of this should be offensive

Sigils on your shoes for good luck and protection wherever you go

Succulents on the windowsill

Bringing a lighter with you even if you don’t smoke

Stopping at the grocery store to buy spell ingredients

Going to the park to meditate on the grass

Enchanting/charging your mask to act as a protective shield

Reading occult/witchcraft books on the bus

Podcasts while doing the dishes

Having a digital grimoire on google drive

Shoebox altars if you don’t have enough space (or are in the broom closet)

LED candles/oil diffusers if you can’t burn stuff

(Not originally my idea but I love this) banishing spells done on rubbish truck days

Enchanting/charging your jewellery

Keeping a mini-altar in your locker/pigeon hole

Moon water in tupperware containers

Feel free to add on!

[magicklore]

I think sometimes people forget that witchcraft isn't strictly religious. You can practice and not be wiccan, you can practice and be atheist, you can practice and be christian, witchcraft is not inherently tied tonone religion

a page from my grimoire - samhain (1)

the beginning and the end of the celtic year

samhain has many names - oidche shamhna, halloween, third harvest, day of the dead, félie na marbh, shadow fest, felie moingfinne, and old hallowmass. i personally will be calling it calan gaeaf.

calan (meaning the start of the month you're referring to) gaeaf (winter) is a time that lies between times and is a time that is not a time - it's completely liminal. it is the end of summer and marks the time just before we enter the dark half of the year. now is the time to remember and honour the dead. historically, deceased relatives would come and visit the home and doors were left unlocked so that they could enter. some use the tradition of a "dumb supper", where food and places are laid out for the dead alongside the family's and the meal is eaten in silence. hollowing out turnips, sugar beets, or later pumpkins and placing a candle inside was a tradition to provide light so that the dead could find their way.

modern day trick-or-treating is said to come from the ancient buachaillí tui, disguised people who characterised the dead and led a white mare called láir bhán.

on this day, the veils between our world and annwn (the welsh otherworld) are thin. the wild hunt starts.

this time represents a reckoning, an end to things, a settling of accounts. a time of endings, to stop and reflect on the past year and prepare for the one to come.
