You should be starting a recipe book. I don't give a shit if you're only 20-years-old. The modern web is rotting away bit by bit before our very eyes. You have no idea when that indie mom blog is going down or when Pinterest will remove that recipe. Copy it down in a notebook, physically or digitally. Save it somewhere only you can remove it. Trust me, looking for a recipe only to find out it's been wiped off the internet is so fucking sad. I've learned my lesson one too many times.

One day you think: I want to die. And then you think, very quietly, actually I want a coffee. I want a nap. A sandwich. A book. And I want to die turns day by day into I want to go home, I want to walk in the woods, I want to see my friends, I want to sit in the sun. I want a cleaner room, I want a better job, I want to live somewhere else, I want to live.

[sappocururu]

I'd like to see more people talking about how so much of deity work is trust, at least in the beginning. And not the "your deities have your best interent in mind" kinda trust. But trusting our deities are really there, that They are listening to us, that the answers given by the divination method we choose to use to communicate are really Them.

Most of the people on witchblr that talk about interacting with their deities do so in a manner that makes it seem so effortless. Like they were talking to another human in front of them. And I'm not invalidating them, I really think it's awesome they could form this connection, but it takes so much time and effort to achieve this level.

My energy sensing abilities are non-existent, I have intrusive thoughts and I'm just now sucking a little less at divination. It took so long for me to get the hang of my deity's communication style to feel a bit more confident that I'm really receiving Their messages. But most of the time, it still feels like radio silence, and all I can do is pray and trust.

Kitchen Staples and Their Properties

If you're any kind of kitchen user, there are a few things that are usually present. Things like bread, cheese, beans, and vinegar are all things that many kitchens keep in stock. So, here is a list of some staples you may have in your kitchen, and what they mean.

Bread: health, abundance, the hearth, kindship

Beans: wisdom in choices, luck, money, divination, prosperity

Butter: peace, friendships/relationships, spirituality

Cheese: goal completion, happiness, moon magic, health

Eggs: feminine/goddess magic, fertility, mysticism

Honey: joy, love, sex, wisdom, lust, purification, health

Adding some things together melds their properties! Cooking in butter for your friends can strengthen your relationships with them, and baking bread can bring abundance into your home.

As always, do your research, practice safely, and blessed be!

Witchcraft 101: A Guide to Elemental Magic

Elemental magic is a central aspect of witchcraft, as it focuses on the powers of the elements and how they can be harnessed to promote personal growth, spiritual transformation, and manifestation. The four elements - fire, earth, air, and water - each have their own properties, correspondences, and energies, and can be used in a variety of magical practices and rituals.

In this guide, we'll explore the basics of elemental magic and how to incorporate it into your witchcraft practice.

The Elements and Their Correspondences:

Fire - corresponding to passion, willpower, creativity, and transformation. Associated with the south direction and the color red.

Earth - corresponding to stability, prosperity, fertility, and grounding. Associated with the north direction and the color green.

Air - corresponding to communication, clarity, intellect, and inspiration. Associated with the east direction and the color yellow.

Water - corresponding to emotions, intuition, healing, and purification. Associated with the west direction and the color blue.

Using the Elements in Magic:

There are many ways to use the elements in your magical practice, including:

Creating elemental altars - dedicating a space in your home or practice area to a specific element can help you connect with its energy and intention.

Using elemental symbols and correspondences - incorporating the colors, stones, herbs, and other materials associated with the elements can enhance your spells and rituals.

Channeling elemental energy - visualizing and channeling the energy of a specific element can help you manifest your intentions and empower your magical workings.

Using elemental tools - incorporating elemental tools, such as candles, athames, wands, or chalices, can enhance your ability to direct and focus the energy of the elements.

Tips for Incorporating Elemental Magic:

Here are some tips for incorporating elemental magic into your witchcraft practice:

Learn about the properties and correspondences of each element - by understanding the unique energies of each element, you can better incorporate them into your magical practice.

Trust your intuition - while there are certain correspondences and symbols associated with each element, ultimately, it's your intuition and personal connection to the elements that matter most.

Experiment with different techniques - there are many ways to incorporate elemental magic into your practice, so try out different techniques and see what resonates with you.

Practice regularly - like any skill, practicing elemental magic regularly can help you build your understanding and connection to the elements over time.

Elemental magic is a powerful and versatile aspect of witchcraft. By harnessing the energies of the elements, we can enhance our ability to manifest our intentions and connect with our spiritual selves. Remember to approach elemental magic with respect, reverence, and an attitude of curiosity and openness, and trust your intuition as you explore and experiment with different techniques.
