Happy banishing spells, lovelies! Send that harmful energy to the curve.


It’s important to add each plant and material with intention! And I recommend researching why each plant is used in this particular spell so you understand these amazing plant allies better and are able to connect better with their energy.

Wish magick - the spells everyone is doing without even thinking about it and one of the most budget friendly ways to set intentions for manifestations you want to bring to life!


As I mentioned in the graphics, I love using wish ingredients in spells, especially for important spells (making my dreams come true). I save dandelion fuzz, fallen acorns, and birthday candles for this reason. It just adds that little bit extra magick to spells. It reminds me of the magician in tarot, bringing their dreams (wish ingredients) down to reality (your everyday spellwork ingredients).

•Nonfiction & fiction books and my journal to stay inspired and to also writer down my feelings.

(Pictured - A Spell in the Wild by Alice Tarbuck | House Witch by Delemhach)

•Headphones for meditation, ease pain/sound overstimulation, and for witchy podcasts if I don’t feel up to reading.

•Tarot & oracle decks

(Pictured - W.I.T.C.H oracle deck by @angisullins & @silastoball)

•Plant medicine & salves (still take my prescribed too) to help with the pain.

As a chronically ill witch staying connected to my craft is so important while going through a flare. This doesn’t mean I overdo myself, but I keep my favorite low energy witchy stuff near if I feel up to using it.

What is in your kit?

✨The Appearance of Wild Violet - The Sapphic Romance Flower

Forging my own wild plants for spellwork has been a true focus of mine these past few years. With the arrival of spring here in the south, I am back at it! I couldn't believe my luck today when I was roaming my front lawn, which is honestly in need of a mow, when I spotted purple flowers dotting the grass. Upon closer inspection, I saw they were some wild violets, tiny and perfect.

Violets correspond to romance, and not just any type of romance but sapphic (lesbian or fem/fem relationships), faithfulness, dream magick, to call upon a deep sleep, grief, and death/transformation.

Do you use violets in your practice?

🌙Simple Everyday Things You Can Do For Protection

Source | https://www.instagram.com/mariathearcane/

What are some simple things that you do that you think would help another witch?

🌙My list of daily or easy practices requires little to no prep-work

•Use a protection plant ally like a witch's burr, cloves, thorns, motherwort, black pepper, garlic, or onion. Close your eyes and place your plant ally in your hands. Ask the spirit of the plant if they will offer you protection to see you through the day. Carry it with you.

•Alternatively, you can also use crystals. My go to combo is black tourmaline and red jasper!

•Use a protection archetype tarot card like the Nine of Wands. Nine of Wands, for myself, symbolizes boundaries and protection when it comes to our growth/life path. Place it on your altar with intention since it is a portal to our intentions, our guides, and the liminal, or carry on your person.

•Smoke cleanse the thresholds in your home, yourself, and your loved ones. I personally like rosemary and lavender for this purpose.

•As you leave an offering for your guides/ancestors/deities during your daily conversation with them ask them for their help when it comes to protection.

•Write the word protection or a symbol of protection on a black candle with intention and light.
