Nazis will never be welcome in paganism. They have no space in our communities, we will have a zero tolerance policy when it comes to nazis. You have no right to the cultures, gods and religions you hijack to spread your disgusting ideologies. You will find no refuge or comraderie amongst pagans.
Reblog to let nazis know they’re not welcome here.
I should make an executive functioning spell jar so I can shake it whenever I need that extra boost
Not sure what I would put in it though
Maybe success herbs? Peppermint for clarity, cinnamon for success, black tea for energy? Might super depends on how you picture executive functioning symbolically in your life. The way you describe the feeling would help to find the feeling in herbs and crystals and spices.
I love the idea tho, super fun idea.
Crashing through the wall into this conversation because I HAVE MADE ONE!!!! And it works a treat, in conjunction with hydration and my usual brain skittles.
Here's what I used:
Clear quartz to direct my energy effectively
Moonstone to elevate my mood
Ginger root to kickstart the process
Green tea for energy and drive
Rosemary for mental clarity and acuity
Peppermint for focus and follow-through
Purple deadnettle for tenacity
Oak wood chip for staying power
And the pill dust from the bottom of my last prescription bottle for good measure
Whenever I need that boost, I make sure to eat something, drink water, and take a B vitamin or a brain skittle, then give the bottle a squeeze, turn on my Get Shit Done playlist and say out loud, "Arright, let's do this!"
Adapt as needed, hopefully it works for you!
Felt drawn to my tarot cards this morning so I asked them about the election.
I’m not sure, because I haven’t been practicing my tarot (been pretty disconnected from my craft for a bit tbh) but I think they might be telling me to just move.
So that’s great
Still gonna vote though and you should too!
Low Energy Witchcraft
I'm neurodivergent and i experience really intense burnout. I get to a point where I struggle to even get out of bed, take my meds, remember to drink water, let alone practice. But, when I want to practice i have a list of things i can usually do. Everyone's experiences with burn out/low energy are different so this list may not apply to you, and that's okay. Take what resonates, leave what doesn't and i hope you enjoy my silly little list :)
create a playlist and infuse it with an intention. eg, a money spell playlist filled with songs about wealth.
draw sigils with soap when in the shower. (you can also use a wet wipe if you can't shower)
found some juice? give it a little shake and use the ingredients as a spell.
have food that has grains as ingredients? wow! an abundance spell!
the classic add intention to your tea and coffee.
bind your hair. for me with is as simple as putting my hair in a ponytail.
watch a witchy video. while not technically practising witchcraft, sometimes all you need is to sit back and relax to connect with your practice.
when I have a decent amount of energy I'll grab a large pillar candle and carve sigils into it. I use it as a long-term spell; all I have to do to activate it is light the candle. I like to light one of these spell candles when I'm having a bad day.
if you're religious, pray. Even if you're lying in bed. Even if you haven't showered in a week. If it makes you happy and you can, do it
burn some insence! it smells good, you don't have to really worry about forgetting about it, it's good for cleansing. it's great!
take a nap with some crystals. any restorative crystals or calming crystals work great! just make sure that they aren't geodes or roughs. i'd hate for you to hurt yourself while sleeping.
if you don't have any crystals for your nap, set an intention instead. please let yourself rest.
It's important to remember that you're allowed to take breaks from your craft. If you're forcing yourself to practice when you have no energy because "that's what a good witch would do!" then you're probably going to make your situation worse. it's a great way to fall out of love with witchcraft. give yourself some grace. rest is infinitely more important than 1 full moon, 1 new moon, or missing your daily/weekly/monthly cleanse. You aren't a bad person if you don't pull your morning tarot card or check the astrology forecast for today. and you aren't a bad person if you miss your daily prayer. take care of yourself. your health is WAY more important than your craft. Go get a drink of water and take care of yourself <3

I dreamt I met a witch, who told me she was the next doula for the universe. I commented that it seemed like a big responsibility and she smiled, and added some tea to the cheesy soup she’d offered me on my arrival- an unusual but delicious blend.
I told her that, unlike her, I hadn’t always known I could connect with magick. I told her I still wasn’t sure- I’ve been so disconnected from my craft lately, and in truth I mostly use it to merely bolster my confidence and self esteem.
She held me at arms length and asked if I wished to do more. I wasn’t sure but she just smiled and said “You will”. She held me tightly and I hugged her back, tighter than I’ve ever hugged another, until we both shook from the force of it, vibrating at the same frequency.
I don’t fully understand what this means, beyond being a call back to my craft. I don’t know what a “doula for the universe” does or does not do. But I am grateful for the visit.

My cat likes to wake me up in the morning (LOUD yelling), force me to take breaks from work (again, by yelling), and participate in tarot readings (yelling and walking across the cards)
Me: FINE, you can be my familiar
My therapist: she’s officially an emotional support animal
Cat: *yelling in triumph*

This me after reading this 👩🏼🦲
considering the fact that my Mohican coworker’s family was run out of Salem bc of white supremacy...idgaf about white witches’ martyr fantasy
get a more interesting personality babes!
Yknow, this is a really valuable critique for me to see, as a white person, as a witch, as someone who has said or thought this phrase more than once.
I’ve always seen this as a feminist thing, and somehow completely missed the fact that other types of oppression also factored in. In retrospect it seems obvious, but I guess I’m still unlearning the whitewashed history we were taught in school.
Super embarrassing that someone had to connect the dots for me, but I’m still grateful.
Could you please reblog this if you are a witch who isn’t Wiccan?
I do still borrow stuff from Wicca (hard not to) and try to celebrate the wheel of the year, but I wouldn’t call myself Wiccan (since I don’t specifically worship the God and the Goddess)
Asking my tarot cards for advice like
Me: What do I need to -
Cards: Get a damn hold of yourself you’re a mess
Me: I fucking hate it when you’re right
Terrible witchcraft idea:
You know those slap bracelets from like middle school? That, but with sigils on it for easy on/off sigil wearing.
Yule ideas for the exhausted witch
After so many of you enjoyed the post about low-energy ways to celebrate Samhain, it is time to share some ideas on how to celebrate Yule without too big of an effort. 2020 was a hard year and everyone deals differently with handling the crazy stuff this year threw at us. You are valid and your faith isn’t less important or less worthy because you can not spend the energy you might want to on the celebration of the solstice. A blessed Yule to all of you!
- As an easy charm for good luck: Tie some tiny bells to a ribbon and wind it around the handle of your door. Who ever enters will be cleansed of their negative energies and the sound of bells will invite prosperity and luck inside your home.
- Treat yourself to some sweets. Doesn’t matter if self-baked or store-bought, we’re talking of all the delicious treats of the season full of cinnamon (protection, luck), vanilla (friendship, passion), cloves (beauty, love) and ginger (energy, success). Yes, please!
- Give thanks and give back. You don’t need to volunteer for days to show your gratitude. Feed some birds, donate a bit to your local shelter if you have the money, small gestures matter!
- Who needs a big Yule tree? Get yourself some twigs (please don’t just break them off) from an evergreen and place them on your windowsill or inside a pretty vase.
- Solstices are turning points, times of change. Make a list (written or mental) and remember all the things you are grateful for that happened this year. Also note things that you want the new cycle to bring to your life. Keep the list close during the time of the solstice and burn/bury them at the end of The Twelve Nights.
- No energy to decorate your altar? Decorate yourself. Wear green, red, gold or silver colors and jewelry with rubies, garnet, jade, agate or rose quartz.
Have a blessed Yule and feel free to reblog and add to the list!
Me in a witch groupchat: “I’m just so tired and out of it, I don’t know what to do for Yule. I feel like I ought to do something, I’m just so exhausted”
This post truly descended from the heavens, as thematic music came up on my playlist. Blessed be.
No One:
Literally No One:
Witches: Shit... I forgot about Yule.
