i guess a sort of introduction is in order - you can call me smoky. i'm a witch (spirituality) and an aspiring magical girl. my magi form is based on smoky quartz, a crystal that cleanses negative energy, hence the name. i'm an adult, mentally ill, and disabled (no dni, i block if i need to)
i can sound bored when i'm not masking, but please try not to be put off by it. i'm not apathetic just because i'm not cheerful :) /gen
my foes are hatred and despair, which i see as metaphysical forces that feed into and grow off of people's sorrow, anger, and fear. my goal is to fight these forces with magic, activism, and community service.
i want to be a healer, so i'm studying healing spells, protective magic, and first aid.
i hope to get to know other magi and share our experiences, and, maybe some day, be able to offer my abilities as a healer, so we can all achieve our goals together!
(To make yourself glow more when others send you negative thoughts)
You will need:
• A small mirror
• Pink or white candle (or both)
• A dab of rose oil, vanilla, or any scent you associate with love and confidence
• A piece of jewelry or item you wear often (like a ring, necklace, hair clip)
Spell Steps:
1. Prepare your space:
Light the candle. Dab a little rose oil on your pulse points and on the item you’ll enchant.
2. Gaze into the mirror:
Look into your own eyes. Smile gently, as if you’re seeing your highest, most beautiful self.
3. Speak the charm:
Say clearly (or whisper if you prefer):
“By fire and flame, by heart and name,
All bitter thoughts sent my way,
Turn to beauty, charm, and sway.
Glow I shall, with every glance,
In love, in light, in radiance.”
Say it three times, each time believing more strongly that negativity can’t stick to you — it only polishes you brighter.
4. Seal the spell:
Hold the piece of jewelry over the flame for a moment (not too close — just to warm it slightly) while imagining it absorbing the charm. Wear or keep the item with you afterward.
5. Optional:
Close the spell by blowing out the candle and thanking the energies for supporting your glamour.
⸻
Shortcut/No-Tools Version
(if you want something quicker):
Just when you feel like someone is sending negativity, smile slightly to yourself and mentally repeat:
• “Every word spoken against me is transmuted into gold in my bank account.”
• “Negative talk about me fuels my prosperity and multiplies my income.”
• “The more people speak about me, the more the universe blesses me financially.”
• “I transform gossip into growth, and criticism into cash flow.”
• “Every bad word said about me turns into a blessing of wealth, success, and opportunity.”
• “I am divinely protected — and all harmful energy is redirected into money, luck, and abundance.”
• “The energy of others talking about me powers my business, my success, and my wealth.”
• “I rise above negativity, and every attempt to bring me down only makes me richer.”
⸻
✨ Tip: You can repeat these daily during journaling, while looking in the mirror, or when lighting a candle for protection + prosperity. Pairing them with visualizations (imagine golden coins raining down every time someone says something negative about you) makes them even more powerful.
Warding is the practice of shielding or protecting something, someplace, or someone. There are a million and two different types of wards you can create-- in many ways, you are only limited by your own creativity and knowledge.
Why/when should I use a ward?
I always recommend having, at minimum, a protective ward for yourself and your living space if you practice witchcraft (or something adjacent to witchcraft). What a ward does is dependent on what it was created to do. Different people have different needs, and wards are not one-size fits all. Wards can be generic or specific, but my personal preference is a well-defined ward. By well-defined, I mean "clear in what it will and will not do".
Basics
In order to figure out what sort of ward you may need, ask yourself these questions:
What does my practice focus on?
Where might I be vulnerable?
What are my strengths and weaknesses when it comes to witchcraft?
Who and what am I comfortable with having in my space?
When and where am I comfortable with having others in my space?
What do I need to keep out, and what do I need to keep in?
What existing practices/habits may affect my wards? (e.g. cleansing, banishment, rituals, etc.)
Do I have an energy source for a ward? How do I intend to upkeep my wards?
Do my wards need to be moveable or changeable?
What resources are available to me? Are there people or entities that are willing to help me?
What, in my mundane life, do I need help with? What do I need to protect?
What actions am I taking, in my mundane life, to protect myself? (e.g. driving safely, practicing good fire safety habits, etc.)
How to make a ward
As previously stated, there are a million and two different types of wards-- and a million and two different ways to create them. Best practice is generally to lean on your personal strengths and resources to make one. Here are some more specific examples:
Herbalism: A witch who works primarily with herbs could create a protective sachet or jar that is filled with protective herbs.
Kitchen Witchcraft: Someone who practices kitchen witchcraft could cook protective foods, or incorporate small actions into their regular cooking that add protective qualities into their food (i.e. stirring a certain way, routinely using certain ingredients, etc.)
Storm Witchcraft: A witch who works with storms could use the energy of storms to protect their home. They could call on fearsome breezes to blow away harm, rainfall to wash it away, darkness to hide their home, etc.
Glamour witchcraft: A glamour witch can work on how they are perceived. Don't want someone approaching you? Make them afraid of you. Have a fearsome appearance to those who would wish you harm. Make them hesitate. Or hide yourself altogether, as if you were never there.
Deity witchcraft: Ask your gods to guide your hand, to show you how to protect yourself. Ask them to protect you, and clarify what you need protection from.
Green Witchcraft: Grow a plant with the intention of having it take the blow for you, if anything negative gets sent your way. Or have it purify your space.
Divination Wards: Use the energy of specific tarot cards to protect yourself. Write protective runes on things you care about.
Music Witchcraft: Play empowering music. Belt out a song about how nothing can harm you. Hum a tune to make things go away.
Energy Witchcraft: Envision great shields and walls, fortresses and moats. Whatever screams "protection" to you.
Etc.
Types of Wards/Ideas for Wards
Keep in mind that any ward can be for both the magical and mundane (though, always act with common sense, and act as if your wards do not exist. A ward will not make you immortal, and they can be counteracted and/or destroyed. They are there for when shit hits the fan-- but they are not a free pass to start throwing shit AT the fan!)
Transmutative wards: Tranform harmful energy sent your way into something positive and useful. (e.g. negative rumors -> increased opportunities, bad intentions -> abundance)
Baneful wards: If someone hits you, hit them back. Reflect whatever they sent to you back on them, and thensome.
Banishment Wards: If something steps into your space, kick it back out.
Hiding Wards: Hide something from prying eyes. Make it invisible, or make it appear boring/uninteresting.
Reflective wards: Reflect something's image back at them, let them see what they expect to see, or let them see themselves.
Healing wards: Protect your health, or force healing upon those who brush up against them (e.g. if someone lashes out at you because they have not been working on themselves, a healing ward can be just as painful as an outright baneful one.)
Scrambling/maze Wards: Scramble any information someone/something gets, or make them lose their way. Commonly used for unsolicited divination.
Protective wards/wall wards: Stop anything from getting in or out. Stop or prevent harm
Alarm bell wards: Warn you about things coming your way.
Comfort wards: Keep comforting/soothing energy around you.
Examples of Useful Wards

Be careful while fighting and give yourself breaks when needed. Don’t strain yourself, and if you need to retreat, do it. Don’t feel upset or weak if you do. You can’t protect others if you yourself are hurt.
attempted astral projection- my magi-in-training experience
last night, i was preparing to do a law of assumption meditation, like i've been doing for a while. i was listening to an affirmation video and getting comfortable, when out of nowhere, my heart started racing. i felt a surge of fear, but i didn't know why. i decided to put on music instead, and meditate intuitively.
i saw myself and the Despair energy like i did before, it appears like a dark grey mist that floats in and around my body. but this time, it was dark grey chains wrapped around me - my astral form, or my magi form, whatever it is. i also saw the Fear energy i had felt, which looked like white, crackling sparks. unlike the Despair, which feels like it weighs me down, the Fear was light and energetic.
i tried to cleanse the energy, which didn't work, but i was able to manipulate it, and threaded it between the chains and my arms. then, i struggled as much as i could to try and pull my body free.
i wasn't making progress, and i gave up after a few minutes. but, after resting a moment, i changed my mind, and tried again. i did that a few times, hitting the chains with the white energy and thrashing to pull my arms free. i don't know how many times i tried, until, unexpectedly, i felt slack in the chains on my right. i could move a little more freely.
i was ready to accept that progress as it was, but, somehow, with a little more effort, i actually got my right hand free! i wasn't able to free my other limbs, though. and, after a few minutes, the chains had grabbed my wrist again.
i'm not upset, though, not at all. i think i learned a lot. could chains be a subconscious way to visualize feeling trapped? that's definitely possible. could someone, or something, have chained up my magi form, to prevent me from using it? that's possible, too. i had an odd sense of dejavu, too, but i think dejavu can happen for a lot of reasons.
i'm not sure if i'll have the energy to try again tonight, or if i'll need to rest, but i'm feeling more motivated moving forward.
i'm sorry for not having clearer language than "Despair energy" and "Fear energy" to describe it, but if it has a proper name, i don't know it yet. i'm still trying to study how it works and understand it.
You will heal. You will create again. You will wake up genuinely excited about your life. You will laugh again. You will get out of survival mode. You will trust yourself again. You will get your spark back. You will find your way back to yourself. You will. You will. You will.
i was feeling perfectly calm, and i put on a manifestation video while i was browsing tumblr, it was a pretty normal video of its kind, but my heart starting racing out of nowhere...not in a good way. but, i have no idea why, that's strange.
