Multi use Spell bands

Setting fire to things or putting items in bottles is not the only way to cast spells. This is my blend of knot magic and Buddhist ritual. It is the easiest and cheapest way to cast but also one of the most powerful. Some magic is simple but this takes an element of commitment.

You need :

Three pieces of cotton long enough to go nearly twice around your wrist.

(That’s it, no expensive herbs, bottles, wax, oils……)

Tip : Save even more money by using those free sewing kits they give away in hotels. (people are always happy to collect these for you and they cost nothing)

Spell Technique:

I find it best to work this spell out in nature. Old wooden posts hold thread well and you get a better connection.

Tie the ends together and leave an inch loose. Hook the knot into anything natural or tie it loosely to a branch.

Plait the treads loosely together, repeating in your mind what you wish to happen. This might sound easy but thread takes awhile to plait. Building your spell repeatedly into the weave.

Stop when you are almost at the end and finish the band with another knot.

Finally tie the band to your wrist (you might need a friend or partner do it for you) and cut away any excess. Do not remove the band even to bathe. In a week or two it will naturally fall off and the spell is then set.

Tips :

if it’s still there after a year you might want to check that you haven’t used nylon..

If you experience any discomfort or a rash, cut off the cord. Fate is telling you that it was not the right time.

quiet witch aesthetic

❦ writing down and burning your spells, incantations, or intentions

❦ using meditation as a means of thanking/dismissing spirits or other powers

❦ channeling energy through memories and emotions

❦ communicating only through thoughts and facial expressions

❦ shying away from large, grandiose offerings or spells and instead opting for those that are discreet

❦ worrying that your craft is not as strong because you are not vocal

❦ lighting candles and lying crystals around the rim of your bathtub and energizing them with the sound of flowing water rather than your voice

❦ sigils are an absolute lifesaver. you can’t speak drawings

❦ your craft is personal. you keep it to yourself and rarely share your experiences with anybody but your grimoire, and maybe your cat

❦ 90% of your craft is solely based around meditation

✨ signs of house fae ✨

okkkk this post is just for fun and for you babes are into the more mystical side of spirituality! signs there are faeries in your house : 

you see lights dancing out the corner of your eye 

your shoes seem to move - when I was little, I would always swear to my parents that my shoes would shift every time I woke up. the movements are usually so tiny that most people will dismiss it as their brains messing with them.

jewelry and shiny objects vanish  a l l   t h e   f u c k i n g   t i m e.  I once left a dangly earring on my bathroom counter, turned around, and looked back to see it slipping into the sink. it was as if a magnet was pulling it in, craziest thing in the world !! (then proceeded to cry because I really wanted to wear that fucking earring bitch)

you walk into a room and immediately forget what you went in there to do/get - sometimes just a psychological thing but if it happens randomly + frequently, could be a sign!

plants grow effortlessly around your house - even if you live in an urban area or don’t actively garden, you’ll find that everything just grows quickly.

birds, bees, wasps, etc. build nests around your house - even though there are a thousand other natural places for them to live.

your pets get random bursts of energy/excitement despite any visible stimulation - in celtic folklore this is considered a sign that the fae are playing around with your pets!

you hear bells, tapping, or singing at night or early morning - will sound like it’s distant but close at the same time, as if drifting from another realm.

🌷 feel free to add onto this list with your own signs and experiences! 🌷

today’s vibe

[peace-witch]

self love is not about forcing yourself to adopt a narrative you find hard to believe.

self love is about encouraging yourself, taking baby steps, treating yourself like you are your own little kid.

“you can do it” - “try again” - “don’t worry, there’s always next time” - “it’s going to be okay” - “keep it up” - “you’ve done a great job so far”
