Haunter Invisibility Glamour 😈

For those who like to be mysterious and arcane in public, but really don’t want people know who they are.

Items needed:

- Something to cover your face (hood, mask, hat, bandana, face paint, whatever makes you feel unidentifiable. For me, I choose to use a hood and a simple black eye mask). - A censer + charcoal - Poppy seeds –> Invisibility - Bay Leaf –> Psychic Ability, Protection - Clear Quartz, able to be worn around the neck –> To be “translucent” - Essential Oil of your choice - “I Am Invisible” Sigil - All black clothing –> Symbolic of the cover of night and darkness

Steps:

First, you’re going to want to start up your Poppy Seed and Bay Leaf incense. Make sure you have a little more than enough.

Change into your all-black outfit.

Pass your mask through the incense smoke thoroughly; as you do this, charge it with your intent to not be recognized while doing your witchcraft while the public eye looks on.

Do the same to the Crystal Quartz pendant.

Take a drop or two of your Essential Oil and trace the “I Am Invisible” Sigil onto your stomach.

Allow yourself to be covered in as much of the incense smoke as possible until you are satisfied.

Then, go out and conduct your witchy business in public! I wrote this spell specifically because Samhain and All Hallow’s Eve is coming round, and I for one take great delight in turning heads during this time… But I’d rather stay anonymous, because reasons.

@wind-voice

Because I know you love some Pokemon magical goodness. :)

(And also, this is a darned good spell! Just hope there’s a matching RE-visibility spell to go with it.)

Willie's Lady Child's Ballad 6

WILLIE has taen him oer the fame, He’s woo’d a wife and brought her hame. He’s woo’d her for her yellow hair, But his mother wrought her mickle care. And mickle dolour gard her dree, For lighter she can never be. But in her bower she sits wi pain, And Willie mourns oer her in vain. And to his mother he has gone, That vile rank witch of vilest kind. He says: ‘My ladie has a cup, Wi gowd and silver set about. ‘This goodlie gift shall be your ain, And let her be lighter o her young bairn.’ ‘Of her young bairn she’ll neer be lighter, Nor in her bower to shine the brighter. ‘But she shall die and turn to clay, And you shall wed another may.’ ‘Another may I’ll never wed, Another may I’ll neer bring home.’ But sighing says that weary wight, ‘I wish my life were at an end.’ ‘Ye doe [ye] unto your mother again, That vile rank witch of vilest kind. ‘And say your ladie has a steed, The like o’m’s no in the lands of Leed. ‘For he [i]s golden shod before, And he [i]s golden shod behind. ‘And at ilka tet of that horse’s main, There’s a golden chess and a bell ringing. ‘This goodlie gift shall be your ain, And let me be lighter of my young bairn.’ ‘O her young bairn she’ll neer be lighter, Nor in her bower to shine the brighter. ‘But she shall die and turn to clay, And ye shall wed another may.’ ‘Another may I[’ll] never wed, Another may I[’ll] neer bring hame.’ But sighing said that weary wight, ‘I wish my life were at an end.’ ‘Ye doe [ye] unto your mother again, That vile rank witch of vilest kind. ‘And say your ladie has a girdle, It’s red gowd unto the middle. ‘And ay at every silver hem, Hangs fifty silver bells and ten. ‘That goodlie gift has be her ain, And let me be lighter of my young bairn.’ ‘O her young bairn she’s neer be lighter, Nor in her bower to shine the brighter. ‘But she shall die and turn to clay, And you shall wed another may.’ ‘Another may I’ll never wed, Another may I’ll neer bring hame.’ But sighing says that weary wight, ‘I wish my life were at an end.’ Then out and spake the Belly Blind; He spake aye in good time. ‘Ye doe ye to the market place, And there ye buy a loaf o wax. ‘Ye shape it bairn and bairnly like, And in twa glassen een ye pit; ‘And bid her come to your boy’s christening; Then notice weel what she shall do. ‘And do you stand a little fore bye, And listen weel what she shall say.’ ‘Oh wha has loosed the nine witch knots That was amo that ladie’s locks? ‘And wha has taen out the kaims of care That hangs amo that ladie’s hair? ‘And wha’s taen down the bush o woodbine That hang atween her bower and mine? ‘And wha has killd the master kid That ran beneath that ladie’s bed? ‘And wha has loosed her left-foot shee, And lotten that ladie lighter be?’ O Willie has loosed the nine witch knots That was amo that ladie’s locks. And Willie’s taen out the kaims o care That hang amo that ladie’s hair. And Willie’s taen down the bush o woodbine That hang atween her bower and thine. And Willie has killed the master kid That ran beneath that ladie’s bed. And Willie has loosed her left-foot shee, And letten his ladie lighter be. And now he’s gotten a bonny young son, And mickle grace be him upon.

Witch tip

“Place lavender under your pillow while thinking of your wish. Do this just prior to retiring for the night. In the morning, if you have dreamt of anything relating to your wish, it will come true. However, if you did not have dreams, or if they were unconnected with your wish, it will not manifest” ~ Scott Cunningham’s encyclopedia of magical herbs 🌙🌾✨

Sinking

(photo credit)

Sinking refers to a method of grounding which is favoured by water/sea witches. To use this method you will need a body of water. This could be a freshwater stream, a slow moving river, a lake, the ocean or even just your bathtub. The water should be cool (but not super cold) and deep enough so that you can sink below the surface of the water.

Ensure you will not be disturbed during the sinking process (if you are nervous though it is perfectly alright to have a “spotter” there to check that you’re not drowning)

Slowly step into the water and close your eyes. Feel the water as it caresses and flows around your skin. Slowly sink beneath the water until only your head and shoulders remains above water.

Slow your breathing and listen to the world around you. Feel your muscles relax as you float in the water.

Now sink below the water. Do not take a massive breath of air before you sink. Just breathe normally and as you slip below the water, release the air through your nose. The less air in your lungs the easier it is to sink below the water.

Try to think of nothing. Empty your mind completely and allow your mind to drift as you float beneath the water.

If you are relaxed you will be able to stay under the water for longer so do not focus on the air you breathed in (if you begin to panic you use up your oxygen faster and you will need to go up for air faster).

Instead focus on your heartbeat. Feel it pulsing in your temples and hear it in your ears. The water around you will warm as your energy (in the form of heat) seeps into the water.

Now slowly rise back above the surface of the water and take a slow breath in. As you breathe out sink below the water again. You should repeat this process a few times.

Not only does sinking help ground and centre yourself it is also extremely relaxing.

CAUTION: I do not recommend sinking to those who do not know how to swim proficiently or to those who are afraid of drowning. Please, do not do this in harsh running water (whether it be in a rushing river or in the ocean with crashing waves). I don’t want anyone to drown doing this.

- Marci

[witchoftheways]

I’m a witch who lived by the ocean (San Diego) for most of my life, so I’ve done a lot of swimming. Here are some other tips and facts to add on to this already lovely post:

*Salt makes you float, so the more salt is in the water (like in ocean water, or possibly lakes with lots of minerals) the more you will float. Sinking will most likely be easier in clean or fresh water.

*Once you’ve gotten the hang of sinking, another good thing you can try is to adjust the air in your lungs to achieve neutral buoyancy - aka, a state where you are neither floating back up to the surface, nor being pulled to the bottom. Scuba divers do this with a belt so that they can swim freely without constantly being pushed back up. It’s a great way to exercise your self control, and really, really tune into yourself. Again though, harder in salt water.

*When you go anywhere that’s not your bathtub, don’t be afraid to go somewhere with a life guard or experienced spotter. Heck, I’d even recommend that all water loving witches learn basic lifeguard safety themselves so that they can be safer :)

*Here IS something for you sea and salt water witches: wave greetings, cleansing, or “flying”, whatever you want to call it. This is actually a fun game that can actually be a useful tool in your craft. Stand a little deeper in the waves, somewhere you feel comfortable. For those who are not comfortable or strong swimmers, I recommend the classic rule where you stand in water that goes no higher than your belly button. Adjust and stand in shallower water if the waves are too strong. Now crouch down when the wave is at its lowest point. Spring up as the crest goes in, and if all goes well, you will be lifted up with the power of the wave, and then gently set back down, exactly where you started. When you’re on the way down/crouching, imagine the negative energies on you, being sucked out of your body, and as you jump, the waves knock them off of you, and fill you with their own energy. The reason I call this wave greeting is because you can get a feel for a body of water and get to know it’s personality so well. Do the waves caress you? Or are they strong and forceful? Do they playfully splash around your and tickle your fingertips, or do they seem controlling, and try to drag you? Get to know your oceans before you work with them, or use their water for spell work, because it could really affect your spells!

*Lastly: IF YOU GET CAUGHT IN A RIPTIDE, DON’T FIGHT IT. SWIM AT AN ANGLE AND TRY TO SLIDE OUT OF IT!!!

Sorry for the long rant, but Marci did such an amazing job, that I felt compelled and inspired to add on.

Quick Witch Tip! 🎃🕯 If you are in the Broom Closet but want to add sigils to your Jack-o-lantern, write them discreetly in the tea light base. I’ve written a sigil for protection and comfort in mine. And to make sure no one finds it, melted the bottom of the tea light just for a quick second to seal it to its base. When the light is burned up by the end of the night, toss them away and no one will be the wiser! Be safe the Samhain and have fun!

[witchcraft-with-lily-blog]

I was so happy to spend my evening doing spells, baking pie, meditating and reading my fortune. I hope you all had a blessed Samhain! 🌙

What a beautiful set up! I hope you had a great night ☺️

Special Mama Von Recipe for Samhain! 

Black Salt, a powerful little ingredient for your spells, hexes, charms and more! Here’s my personal recipe for:

a) Protection

b) Banishing

c) Bad Luck Hex

You’ll Need: 

Self-igniting charcoal

Plants/Resins that correspond to your intent

Salt

Pestle & Mortar

Optionally, pen and paper

Recipe 1: Protection

For my protective black salt, I used: Camphor, Benzoin, Angelica, Ash, Rose, Clove and Birch.

However, you may use your own combination. Use as many or as little as you like.

You may draw a sigil on a small piece of paper that states your intent and will help formulate your salt to aid you better.

Next, light the charcoal and place the incenses on first (Camphor and Benzoin). Next, burn the plants one by one, and the piece of paper with the sigil. Place the charcoal outside if you don’t want the smoke in your house.

Once all the plants have been burnt to ash, put the remains of both the charcoal and the ashes in the mortar and grind to dust. 

The proportions I used were 4 part Ash/Charcoal and 10 part salt, but use whatever works best for you. 

Add the salt to the mortar and mix until the salt is black. If it doesn’t reach its desired colour, add charcoal to the mixture.

Always remember intent is key, so concentrate on what you’re doing. 

Recipe 2: Banishing

This is the recipe I use to banish unwanted things, especially negative influences and spirits.

I used: Opononax, Frankincense, Arabic Gum, Birch, Elder flowers, Mint, Marjoram, Anise and bay.

But you may use any plant that’s good for purification, cleansing, change, positivity and protection.

Same process as the first one. Intent is key and sigils really help to get that across.

Recipe 3: Bad Luck Hex

I don’t hex, but a friend of mine requested that I make it for him. So here, the sigil was really important, since I was more reluctant to put bad intentions in my craft. (I’m not the hexing types, but you may be as wicked as you please, lovely lil witches. I have nothing against it, it’s just not my witching style.)

I used: Mandrake, Nettles, Onion, Lime, Angelica and Vervain.

As usual, use your own recipe if you must! 

I tried to muster up malice and bad thoughts. Hopefully the salt will work for him.

I hope you enjoyed my black salt recipes. They’re all useful for samhain, so tell me how it goes!

Communing with the Dead

‘Tis Necromancy season! Autumn – the Dying Time – when the lines that bissect fade into a liminal channel. Of course, the Dead are never far from me, but not all share my inclinations. For those of you seeking temporary “admittance” into the world of the Dead, I’ve brought to you a ritual that might allow you to ride the boundary. In essence, it is similar in part to me previous post Walking on Water (about hedgeriding), though with the specific purpose of contacting the Cold Ones.

The process – in theory – is quite simple, though some will undoubtedly find it easier than others based on their own innate talents. Regardless, it should allow for contact in one form or another.

Things You Will Need:

A Shovel/Spade

Mugwort, dried

Wormwood, dried

Mullein, dried

Rolling Paper/Emptied Cigarette

Liquid Oil (of your choosing)

Preparation:

Begin by drawing the following sigil on a square of paper. Burn the paper in a fire-safe dish or your working vessel – such as a pot or cauldron. Collect the ashes and add them to a few tablespoons of oil, mixing thoroughly. If you desire, you can warm the oil and add in some black wax shavings to give it a more robust, black color.

Take your rolling paper/empty cigarette tube and roll or stuff with a mixture of the above herbs. Don’t worry – wormwood has a surprisingly light taste when smoked, nothing like its brewed taste. Feel free to add in lavender, bay, marigolds, or thyme for added flavor and effectiveness. Tobacco may also be added, as it too has connotations with the dead. If you are unfamiliar with rolling, smoking (though this blend – sans tobacco – should have little to no longstanding effects on health, as none are addictive, mullein has even been used to aid smokers in quitting) or prefer otherwise, they can be burned as a loose incense on a briquette – if you choose the latter root, I’d say opt as well for a bit of sandalwood.

Ritual:

When night has set in and you’ve made your preparations, take your oil, smoke/incense and shovel/spade to a nearby graveyard – one that is comforting and secluded being the best, though if you wish to make contact with a particular spirit, it would be ideal to go to their grave (if possible). Pay the Gatekeeper, and make your way to the center or a crossroads if one exists. Once you have found an appropriate location that suits you, take your shovel (this is why seclusion is best – you don’t want to get thrown in the pokey for “attempted grave-robbing”) and dig into the earth. You don’t need to dig far, only six inches or so, loosening the dirt. Remove your shoes.

Center yourself, taking a few deep breaths. Light your cigarette/incense, breathing in the smoke (for those of you who aren’t seasoned smokers, do not breath the smoke directly into your lungs – first draw it into your mouth, then into the lungs… unless there also happens to be marijuana involved, in which case, straight to the lungs). Close your eyes, calm yourself and relax. Don’t let the graveyard intimidate you. When you feel ready – slip your feet into the earth, covering them with the removed dirt. Pat the oil onto the lids of your eyes – using it in moderation. It will makes your eyes feel strange and your lashes stick together – but only momentarily.

Verbalize your request. Ask that you might be allowed (temporary) entry into realm of the Dead. If you wish to speak to a specific person, ask them (nicely) to present themselves. The Dead are not seen with the eyes – remember that. And pay close attention to your intuition. You will feel their presence when they arrive. Trust yourself and your abilities and you should have no problem. It wouldn’t be a bad idea to bring an offering to leave for their help.

When you are finished, remove your feet from the soil and replace the moved dirt. Drizzle the remaining oil over the earth, and thank them again for their help and guidance. As is customary, take three steps back, turn around and do not look back as you walk away.

Annoying Lil Things Your Witch Friends Will Do Because They Love You

Force feed you tea that tastes like grass clippings when you get sick.

Bind/banish/hex your shitty ex even when you’re trying to get back with them.

Respond to every random event in your life with “Mmm. Good omen.” or “Mmm. Bad omen” without further explanation.

Surprise you with delicious baked goods and just smile toothily when you ask them if these cookies are charmed.

“Ugh that’s such a Tarus thing to say.” “Calm down, Scorpio.” “I get that you not responding the texts is just because of your Aquarius moon, but I’m going to need you to try a little harder”. 

Almost burn your apartment down with candles at least twice.

Text you at two in the morning to tell you in detail the way their tarot cards have dragged you so you can grow more as a person.

[nakedly]

You are drowning yourself by overthinking everything. The next time you find yourself overthinking or beating yourself over something, picture something simple and put no thought into it. Look at the trees moving in the wind or take a moment to look at how beautiful this world is. This world is too beautiful for you to waste your time in unecessary thoughts that are just drowning you.
