How Do I Disassemble A Spell Jar?

I’ve seen way too many posts about how to make one, but never any about how to take one apart.

If you buried your spell jar (or otherwise placed it somewhere not in your general vicinity), retrieve it first.

There are a few ways to go about disassembling a spell jar.

Throwing Everything Away

Returning It to Nature

Burning It

Putting It Into Another Container for Safekeeping

Retrieving the Reusable Ingredients (crystals, shells, etc.) and Getting Rid of the Rest

Throwing Everything Away

As simple as it sounds. I would recommend breaking the seal (melting it or even just stabbing it) before getting rid of it, to break the spell itself. Keep the jar and wash it or throw it away with the rest of it. Throw the contents into the trash (or a dumpster, if you don’t want it near you).

Returning It to Nature

Also very simple. Can only be used with natural ingredients. Do not dump in rivers. Retrieve any non-organic materials (crystals, shells, poppets, etc.) to either reuse or get rid of separately. Be sure it doesn’t include things that can harm the local wildlife.

Burning It

Empty the contents of the jar into a different, fire-safe bowl or plate. Then, burn it. Simple as that. Lighters or matches, it doesn’t matter. Be sure that you and any pets or family can inhale the fumes from it. This is usually used with spells that have little amounts of ingredients. Be sure to research fire safety and safety when it comes to burning herbs and other ingredients.

Putting It Into Another Container for Safekeeping

Transferring the contents into a different container. Usually done when you want to reuse the jar or size down the original jar. Break the seal, pour it into your other container, seal that, and you’re done. Super easy. Can also be used when putting a spell into a ‘dormant’ state.

Retrieving the Reusable Ingredients and Getting Rid of the Rest

What I see the most in the witch community. Reusable ingredients include crystals, shells, rocks, bones, and anything else that can be used again. Doing this is a bit harder when the jar has liquid. Break the seal and place the contents of the jar into another container. Then, pick out all of the reusable items, the ones that you want to keep. Wash them and dispose of the contents of the jar through one of the methods above.

Notes

When disassembling a spell jar, it’s always good to declare the intentions of the jar done (or dormant). If the spell could have negative consequences on your or someone else’s life, be sure to neutralize the energy you have put into the spell. Cast a counter-spell or just neutralize the spell. Please tell me if I missed anything!

Happy Yule (northern hemisphere) and Litha (southern hemisphere)! May your days be merry, bright, and prosperous ❄️⛄☀️🌻

Note for Yule infograph #3: "Smudge" is a closed term. The appropriate label for that item would be a smoke cleansing bundle unless you are part of that practice.

Basics of beginning witchcraft:

These aren’t anything new or special, but learning the basics is an essential when starting off 💖

Research is everything! Everyone’s craft is different, so relying purely on social media can be counterproductive and misleading since practices can vary and anyone can easily knowingly or unknowingly spread misinformation. There are no specific sites I’d recommend, just simply research as much as possible and pretty soon you’ll have the hang of it! Books are also great sources of information and can be found anywhere including online, thrift stores, book stores, or metaphysical stores. Although many books can easily spread misinformation as well, so always do research on one or an author. Historical books are always incredibly useful.

Witchcraft, Paganism, Satanism, and Wicca are all different. Witchcraft is the belief in and practice of magic. Paganism is the practice of any non mainstream religion, and is typically earth based or polytheistic (examples would include wicca, Hellenism, Norse paganism, Kemetism). Satanism can divide between being purely philosophical or involve the worship of Lucifer. Wicca is a stand alone earth based religion with specific principles and beliefs, and may not always involve witchcraft.

Witchcraft can’t go against the laws of nature. Simply put, witchcraft is just manipulating energies and cannot do anything such as defy gravity or physically transform something.

You don’t have to be a cis woman in order to practice witchcraft. This will make many angry, but your ability to practice magic doesn’t rely on genitalia or gender identity at all. Identifying as a woman and having a vagina doesn’t immediately make you the only one capable of doing spell work, and thinking that energies recognize and care about gender is idealistic thinking.

You can be an atheist and still practice witchcraft. The internet may lead you to believe that you have to worship various polytheistic deities in order to be a ‘real’ witch, but this is actually paganism. Energy work only requires deities if that is your religious belief.

Christians can practice witchcraft! Despite the notion that all Christians are entirely against witchcraft, this is false and there are many Christian witches who choose to work with information in the Bible, Christian deities, or saints. Wanting to practice witchcraft does not mean you must sacrifice Christianity.

Witchcraft does not require you to be Wiccan or Pagan. If you want to practice witchcraft by itself then practice! Wicca is a religion seperate from witchcraft which worships the Triple Goddess and Greenman and believes in things such as the threefold law, sabbats and esbats but does not always include the practice of witchcraft.

Certain practices and beliefs can be closed to those who do not belong to the ethnicity of origin, those who do not belong to the society, or are not initiated. This is not gatekeeping but purely basic respect. If you want to begin working a cultural path but are unsure of if it is closed simply google the origins and trust the practitioners themselves rather than tumblr as we can sometimes get things mixed up. Examples would include Indigenous practices, Hoodoo, Voodoo, Brujería, and Jewish practices.

Spirit guides are amazing to work with and can help your daily life and craft immensely. Some ways you can contact them are through meditation, divination, astral projection, lucid dreaming or just by simply asking. My personal favorite method is through the spirit messages oracle cards.

When using a new pendulum, always first ask which direction is yes/no/maybe and allow it to swing naturally. Make note of which direction corresponds to which answer.

Before doing any type of magic, learn basic protective methods. These can include protection spells, chants, sigils, crystals, and herbs.

Meditation is an amazing skill to learn when beginning. This can help with vital things such as focus, energy, grounding, chakra work, and help set the groundwork for more complicated topics such as lucid dreaming or astral projection.

Befriending and researching local harmless nature spirits is a good place to start off of. This is the safest way to begin spirit work and can be quite rewarding. I would personally suggest just starting with plant spirits and animal spirits.

There is no ‘right’ way to do witchcraft. Witchcraft is incredibly broad and there are practically infinite ways to go about it. Choose your own beliefs, create a practice specific to you, and don’t believe that you have to follow the set path of others. Unless what you’re doing is truly illogical and lacks research, trust that you know what is best for you.

Your practice is your own! Regardless of if you’re new or experienced never forget that you are the one who gets to decide what you do. Witchcraft is extremely personal to the practictioner and there is power to designing your own practice. Sometimes your own methods are the best of all.

These are just a “few” guidelines, by far everything important to know is not covered and continuing research is key. Witchcraft cannot simply be just doing spells at random, there has to be backing so knowing a clear ideology is of importance. Hope this helped!

Ok, so you want to practice every day?

You know what, valid. So do I. I'm going to make this as short as I can because we have a lot to get through.

You don't have to practice every day to be a "good," valid, powerful, or whatever-you-want witch.

Generic "ground and center every morning, then enchant your tea" practice routines aren't going to be helpful for 90% of us out here. (yes, I wrote similar in the past!)

"Practice" does not equal repeating exercises and casting spells.

When witches say "in my practice," IMO they are using this word interchangeably with "in my path," or "when I actively engage in my path."

Eschew the idea that your "daily practice" is supposed to be a workout routine that is training you for something better.

Embrace the idea that we're actually talking about "practicing daily," aka "engaging with my path on a daily basis." You aren't training for the next thing - you're at the thing already :)

Your daily practice needs to start with what you want out of your faith and practice.

Not everyone wants to be an energy worker.

Not everyone wants to venerate nature.

Not everyone wants to be a spirit-worker.

Not everyone wants to learn herbalism or kitchen witchery

Brainstorm your idealized path. I mean envision yourself in the cutest little cottagecore village, living your total fantasy witch life. What are you doing?

Do you want to...

Be a diviner?

Learn sorcery?

Be a licensed herbalist?

Talk to spirits and make friends with the forest and the flowers?

Help and heal the villagers?

Be a spiritual warrior who battles with evil spirits and aberrations?

Be a world-walker, who goes to unseen realms?

Learn to slip into new skins?

(The list goes on)

Also ask yourself what you don't want. Gods freak you out? Ok, don't interact with them. You want to do pure energy work with very little ritual ingredients? Beautiful. Stand your ground, flip off people who tell you "but witches worship pagan gods and burn candles to their familiars 🥺"

Find ways to start including what is the most important to you in your daily life.

It might be helpful to make a list of the 1-3 things you really want to focus on right now. If it helps, choose a time frame of weeks to try out these practices and see if you like them.

But before you get too far into that:

[Picture ID: A tweet from @rmccarthyjames which reads, "all of my plans for the future involve me waking up tomorrow with a sudden sense of discipline and adherence to routine that i have never displayed even once in my life"]

This, right here, is what we want to avoid.

Please, for the love of God, do not sit down and say, "okay, I'm going to wake up 30 minutes early and do a 15 minute meditation each morning, then 5-10 minutes of energy exercises. Then, I'm going to ground and center (energy work goals). Then during breakfast I'll enchant my food and read about herbalism while I eat (kitchen witch goals). Then, in the evening ---"

I can pretty much guarantee you that almost any activity you have access to right now will be actively draining.

Magical techniques, exercises, and spellwork take energy - just like working out at the gym.

You can work out at the gym and feel energized for the next couple of hours, but then become fatigued in the evening/next day.

You can work out at the gym every day for 5 days, but then suddenly you feel too weak or sore to even get out of bed the next day.

Meditation, grounding, and centering can restore metaphysical energy to your body, and increase your access to it. But it's like eating a protein bar after a workout - you still have to rest and recover.

So if you've tried to stick to "do X, Y, Z" activities every day and failed, ask yourself if you were actually engaging in a strenuous magical workout routine that wore you into the ground.

Instead of choosing "X activity for Y minutes at Z time every day, consider this:

One of the most available ways you can engage in your path is by dwelling within your magical and spiritual worldviews.

Are you an animist? Look for a plant. Think about how it's got a soul. You just engaged with your path :)

Are you interested in energy work? Look for a conversation between two people. Consider the energy flow between them. You just engaged with your path :)

Are you into Traditional Witchcraft? Watch a TV show. Ask yourself how you'd solve a problem on the screen (not necessarily using magic to solve it, just in general). Then, ask yourself how your hag, fetch-beast, or familiar (hypothetical or otherwise) would solve it. You just engaged with your path :)

Are you into religious magic? Look around you. Feel the vibes, feel your feelings, feel your mood. What would your god(s) have to say about it? You just engaged with your path :)

Do you play a lot of video games? Overlay your beliefs onto the game and use events, interactions, and developments as an opportunity to consider your own beliefs (or, with Minecraft, build your own astral temples).

The more you dwell within your magical and spiritual worldviews, the more you "phase in" to the reality that you're a witch and magic is within you and around you.

Over time, constantly engaging with your path in these small ways - through choosing to see the world through the lens of your practice - makes choosing and employing "techniques," exercises, and spells soooo much more relevant and practical.

With that tangent is out of the way, practical tips for how to interact with your path on a daily basis:

Avoid "daily" activities with a high barrier to entry. If you make all these rules and regulations for your own practice, like you have to make a journal entry for every spell and magical activity, and it has to include the moon phase and planetary hour, you're going to be engaging probably a lot less than you think you will.

Choose activities which directly help and support your day to day life.

Tough work environment? Try picking up energy shielding or amulet-making.

Art commissions down? Try learning prosperity or money magic.

Feeling confused or directionless? Experiment with forms of divination.

Lonely? Learn to talk to spirits.

You do not need to create barriers to these things. You DO NOT need to meditate, ground, or center before you make an energy shield. You can just make one right now, actually.

You don't need to learn protection and warding before you practice talking to the nature spirits around you, or bringing protective presences into your sphere.

You don't need to copy down a two-page spell and then write grimoire entries for each correspondence before you can do effective spells and charms.

One of the easiest ways to perform casual, daily magic is to extend regular daily actions into the spirit world.

(For me, the "spirit world" is where all magic happens. Maybe you might call it the etheric, or the energy-double of the world).

Shower to clean yourself - just expend energy to extend the cleaning to your spiritual bodies.

Eat food to gain energy - just expend energy to also feed your spiritual bodies.

Exhale to send old breath away - and at the same time, send away an unwanted thought, energy, or presence.

("Expend energy" can be done in many ways; most often we say "visualization" but you can also dedicate your power to the task through words of intent ["I apply my power to nourish myself thrice over"], mindfulness [staying present in the moment and maintaining focus on your spiritual goal], physical gestures [stirring food clockwise with the knowledge that you are stirring power into it], etc.)

So you've found some free time. What do you want to do with it?

Maybe you started energy shielding earlier this week, and now you're feeling worn out and just want to take a day off.

Hot take: "Hey, I'm too tired to do this magical thing, I'm going to choose something else instead" is engaging with your path :) You didn't forget or ignore your path. You checked in with your magical self, took stock of the situation, and choose the activity of rest.

Be flexible!

I personally say, give all techniques and methods a chance. I myself am not a person where I start out good at things. I'm one of the people where I start out bad at things and get a little better each time I practice.

But if a technique is not vibing with you, or if new concerns arise in your life, there's no need to dedicate yourself to doing something you don't like and don't need for the sake of reaching an arbitrary goal of completion.

Remember, it's not a daily workout until you're good enough to improve your life.

It's improving your life, right now, and each time you do it you get a lil better at it :)

Your path is not subject to object impermanence*.

(*The following is primarily poetic; take it or leave it as you please)

You are what you are and wherever you stand, there your path is around you. To try and curse your path into a quasi-existence where it only appears when you're making energy balls is a terrible fate for a path to be bound to.

It's your friend. It wants to be with you. It doesn't want to be told it's invisible and un-present unless you're staring it in the eye.

A great deal of my early path was taking huge breaks from magical practice - I mean, for months and months at a time. It's called the Crooked Path, not the Straightforward Linear Path Where Expected Things Occur.

Sure, if you're done with witchcraft for a while (or forever), set it aside. Tell your path it's done, closed down, and you'll be back when you're back.

But while you're in, you're walking it. Is your path one where you accidentally forget witchcraft exists and take breaks for months at a time without meaning to? So that's your path. It matches you step for step, no matter where you go.

It doesn't go hungry - you eat and you sleep, and it eats and rests with you. It doesn't feel rejected - it's right there with you. When you touch the doorknob, your path reaches through and holds your hand. When you write a school exam, it traces the pencil lead from the other side. It doesn't matter if you know it or see it - it's there, patient and waiting, watching you with love. All you need to do is fail to believe that your path is gone when you stop paying attention to it.

Witch Tips: Auras

— What are Auras?

There are many interpretations to auras, so do take the time to research other studies. In this post we’ll be going by the definition of Aura being the energetic field that is present in every living being, and is able to be transferred through energy to inanimate objects.

— The importance of Aura in Witchcraft

In Kilner’s book, The Human Aura, he conducts a number of observational studies that manage to identify a change in Aura, those mostly happening in relation to how healthy the observed subject was. As such, we can see that the Aura changes according to certain specifics, and considering it’s energic capacity, it is also possible to control and manipulate. Enter energy work — an incredible ally to any witch that wants spells done, barriers up and protection. So, any witch will benefit greatly from indulging in sensing and/or seeing Auras, at least their own.

— What are these tips for?

I’ll pass on 4 easy techniques that, when practiced, make it possible for Clairvoyance towards Aura identification to be developed. Always do these when you are not rushed and in a calm local where you can concentrate.

If you’re a beginner, you’ll most likely see a luminous mist — don’t worry, with practice you’ll begin seeing more details such as consistency, texture, layers and color.

• TIP 1: Finger Technique

- Put your index fingers close to another, distance your hands as much as possible from your eyes, so that the line of focus is clear so as to not make your eyes go crossed. Ideally you should have your hands poised in front of a sterile background, without itens, shadows or anything that can interfere with your vision.

- Focus your sight on the space between your fingers and soon you’ll see a bright aura surrounding your fingers and create a bridge in the space between them.

- With time, start distancing your fingers and pay attention to the look of the aura, it’s characteristics, feeling and so on. Play with it!

• TIP 2: Paper Technique

- Get a blank, white paper and put your hand on top of it.

- Make a little dot on the paper, with a pen, on top of your middle finger. That dot will be the reference point so you can visualize your aura.

- Continue with your hand on the paper and focus your gaze on the dot — at a comfortable distance so your eyes don’t cross. Soon you’ll be able to see your aura.

• TIP 3: Legs Technique

- Lay down on the ground or on your bed, close to a wall. You’ll want the lights to be totally off or partially on.

- Put your legs up against the wall, relax and focus on them — remember to not let your eyes cross and to have a relatively clean wall so that your sight doesn’t have interferences.

- Soon you’ll begin to see your aura around your legs — get a closer look, between your toes and between the space of your legs. Analyze it. That’s your aura and you should get acquainted with it!

• TIP 4: Visualizing the Whole Aura

- Stay in front of a mirror (preferably one where you can see your whole body) at a distance of a meter or a meter and a half.

- Start focusing on a sole point, the Top of the Head is a good place to start. The less stuff on your background the easier it’ll be to focus.

- Soon you’ll see the aura around your body.

Good practice, let me know your results!

༓ A true begginer's guide to witchcraft: Spells ༓

Welcome to my shop, Witchblr! Today we'll talk about the most well-known part of a witche's career: Spells.

✧ So, Luz, what are spells anyway?

Well, spells are simply a way like any other to manifest your desires, or, to put it more witchy-ly, your intention. They come in a lot of forms: chants, visualization or even a full blown ritual. They can use runes, writing, ingredients,... A lot of things!

But as many ingredients as you may use, please remember that the most important thing in your spell is your intention. If you don't own a certain color of candle, or a certain herb, I encourage you find other ones with the same correspondences!

For you closeted witches out there, your safety is the most important, and a prayer with your intention alone can be enough <3

✧ Spells, hexes? What do these all mean?

Spell is the umbrella term for all of these magick rituals. It can also be used in more specific ways to speak of a spell with positive-to-neutral consequences.

A blessing is a spell with positive intentions, and sometimes refer to when you ask your choice deity to help others.

A hex is a technically neutral spell, that often refers to "pranks". Harmless fun, or not so harmless. But they tend to be short-lived.

A curse, on the other hand, is a long-lasting spell with bad consequences on one person's life, a bloodline, a town, or whatever the hell you want to curse, you do you.

A thing to note is that some covens (witches communities) might be centered on some specific types of magic. For example, the most well known Wiccan law is called "The rule of three", and according to it, the consequence of your action (and more specifically, your spell) will come back to you thrice-fold. For example, if you give money to a friend in need, you should get the kindness back three times more powerfully.

✧ What CAN a spell do?

Anything and everything! Use a blessing to bring luck to you and your friends, a banishing spell to repel malevolent people and energies!

Cast on yourself, cast on others, cast WITH others...

Still, if you want to cast a spell on someone, you might want to ask yourself the question of consent. You can ask the 'target' of your spell directly. If you can't, ask yourself how intrusive the spell might be. Are you simply asking your guardian to protect your lover too, or are you throwing a lover on your unwilling friend?

✧ How does one use a spell?

First, you can find a spell online, here with our lovely practitioners on Tumblr, or on some websites (I don't really use websites, so please add your own in the comments and reblogs to help our fellow baby witches).

Second, buy a spell book! you can find these for cheap in the "esoterism" part of your favorite bookstore, and maybe even in your local library!

Lastly, you might want to write your own spell. But we'll see that in another post.

Now, you know the general concept of a spell! There ARE more specific types of spells, like banishment spells, sweetening spells... You can always look those up, or ask me if you want a post on more precise descriptions :)

❀ Blessings on all my magickal siblings, new and advanced! ❀

And thank you for all your notes on the previous post, Luz out!
