About Me

Hello! My name is Faye, and I am a 32 year old holistic therapist based in Melbourne, Australia.

I am an eclectic witch who focuses on divination and crystals.

I have been a holistic therapist for over 6 years now, and reading tarot professionally for 8 years.

I have been on my spiritual journey for 15 years, and am grateful for the knowledge and opportunities given on the way.

I grew up in rural Australia with parents who frequently travelled for work. This lead me to living part time with my pagan grandmother, who taught me the basics of paganism and helped me begin my spiritual journey.

I am so very grateful for her and all she taught me, and how she opened the door to a path that would lead me to where I am today.

My husband suggested to me I should start an online blog about my journey and share some of my knowledge to others, as my grandmother did for me, so here I am.

Sabbats

Witches, particularly those who follow modern Pagan or Wiccan traditions, often celebrate a series of holidays, known as Sabbats, that are based on the cycles of the seasons and nature. These holidays are divided into two categories: the Greater Sabbats, which are often associated with the equinoxes and solstices, and the Lesser Sabbats, which mark the points between the equinoxes and solstices. Here's an overview of the eight major witchcraft holidays:

1. Samhain (pronounced SOW-IN or SAH-WIN): Celebrated on October 31st (Northern Hemisphere) or May 1st (Southern Hemisphere). Samhain marks the beginning of the Witches' Wheel of the Year. It's a time to honor the dead, reflect on the past, and prepare for the winter months.

2. Yule (pronounced YOOL): Celebrated around the winter solstice (usually December 20th-23rd for Northern Hemisphere, or June 20th-23rd Southern Hemisphere), Yule is a festival of light and rebirth. It's a time to celebrate the return of the sun's strength and the lengthening of days.

3. Imbolc (pronounced IM-BULK or IM-BULG): Celebrated around February 1st-2nd (Northern Hemisphere) or August 1st-2nd (Southern Hemisphere). Imbolc marks the first signs of spring. It's a time to honor the goddess Brigid and welcome the returning life in nature.

4. Ostara (pronounced OST-AR-A): Celebrated around the spring equinox (usually March 20th-23rd for NH, or September 20th-23rd SH), Ostara is a celebration of balance and the arrival of spring. It's a time to honor the goddess Eostre and the fertility of the land.

5. Beltane (pronounced BELL-TAIN): Celebrated on May 1st (NH) or October 1st (SH). Beltane marks the peak of spring and the beginning of summer. It's a time to celebrate fertility, love, and the union of the god and goddess.

6. Litha (pronunced LEE-THA): Celebrated around the summer solstice (usually June 20th-23rd NH, or December 20th-23rd SH). Litha is a time of maximum light and the celebration of the sun's power.

7. Lughnasadh (pronounced LOO-NAH-SA, also called Lammas, pronounced LAH-MUS): Celebrated around August 1st (NH), or February 1st (SH). Lughnasadh is the first of the three harvest festivals. It's a time to give thanks for the first fruits of the harvest.

8. Mabon (pronunced MAH-BON) : Celebrated around the autumn equinox (usually September 20th-23rd NH, March 20th-23rd SH). Mabon is a time of balance and the second harvest festival. It's a time to give thanks for the abundance of the Earth.

These holidays are often celebrated with rituals, feasts, and various customs, including the crafting of seasonal decorations and the lighting of bonfires or candles. It's important to note that the specific dates for these holidays can vary slightly depending on tradition and location, as they are often calculated based on astronomical events.

Cleansing

Cleansing is an essential practice in witchcraft used to purify and cleanse negative energies from a person, object, or space. Here are some common methods of cleansing:

1. Salt: Salt is a purifying agent in witchcraft. Sprinkle or spread salt around the area you wish to cleanse to remove negative energies, and to keep out any other negative energies wishing to enter. You can also create a saltwater solution to wash with.

2. Smoke Cleansing: This involves using smoke from incense or herbs, such as sage, cedar, or palo santo, to purify a space. Be mindful when choosing to smoke cleanse as some methods may be from closed practices or other cultures. Light the herb bundle or incense, let it smolder, and then carry it around your space, allowing the smoke to fill every corner. Visualize the smoke absorbing and dispelling negative energy.

3. Sound Cleansing: Sound is a powerful cleansing tool. You can use instruments like singing bowls, bells, or a simple hand drum to create vibrations that disperse stagnant energy. You can also chant or use specific words of power while clapping your hands or ringing a bell to cleanse an area.

4. Crystals: Crystals like clear quartz, selenite, and black tourmaline are often used for their purifying and protective properties. Place them in the area to absorb and transform negative energy.

5. Visualization: Visualization is a mental technique in which you imagine cleansing energy flowing through your space. Envision a brilliant light, water, or wind sweeping away negativity.

6. Anointing Oils: Create or purchase consecrated oils and anoint doorways, windows, or personal objects with the intention of cleansing and protecting. Common oils for this purpose include lavender, frankincense, and myrrh.

7. Broom (Besom): Some witches use a broom to "sweep" away negative energy. You can physically sweep the energy out of your space while visualizing it being removed.

8. Moon and Sun Cleansing: Leaving an object or tool under the light of the full moon or the warmth of the sun can cleanse and recharge its energy.

9. Water Cleansing: Water is a powerful purifier. You can sprinkle or splash blessed water around your space or immerse objects for cleansing.

10. Incantations and Spells: Craft a specific spell or incantation that reflects your intention for cleansing. Spells with focused intent can be a potent cleansing method.

Remember, the key to successful cleansing in witchcraft is your intention and focus. Before performing any cleansing, take a moment to center yourself, set your intention, and visualize the negative energy being removed and replaced with positive, purified energy. It's important to adapt and personalize these methods to align with your own practice and belief system.
