To all you Witchblrs out there
It’d be really cool if we all started linking the references we used for our information at the bottom of our posts. I love using tumblr, but it’s really hard to trust the info here. I’ll start linking, will anyone else join me?
Hi! Well.. I'm just starting into this, so.. I'd like to know what's the best thing I could do to start in the correct way... Reading a book or something... (I don't know if there's anything to help with mental health too) Anything... Thanks
Hello,friend!
For starters, there’s really no“correct” way to go about the craft. No two witches are the same; we all havedifferent affinities, abilities, opinions, etc., which help to shape our path.That being said, here are a few things you may want to look into to start yourjourney!
Your hobbies
Start here. Might seem odd, but whatbetter way to start practicing witchcraft than to incorporate it into somethingyou already love to do?
“Being in nature fuels me! I love learning about different herbs and plants!” You might like Green witchery.
Plants used in herbalism
Another list for cross reference
Books on herbalism Herb metaphysical correspondences
Another herb correspondence list (these last two were heavily Wicca based, so I’d suggest a lot more cross-reference if Wicca isn’t something you’re into)
“I often have very vivid and intense dreams and love looking into the meanings behind them!” Take a look into Dream Witchery.

“Everything I do is centered around technology and I wouldn’t have it any other way! Playing online games and browsing social media is where I’m most happy and comfortable.” Tech Witchery, here you come!
Master Post – So, I’ve been trying to stay away from just linking tumblr posts (I sort of take issue with people getting all their information from Tumblr), but seeing as Tech Witchcraft is a newer thing, there just isn’t much information on it, so here you go!
“I’m a pyro/geo/aero/hydro-maniac. Okay, not literally, but I feel a deep connection to the elements.” Elemental Witchery might be for you.

Wow okay thatwasn’t even the tip of the iceberg. There are so many different types ofwitches; if I were to list all of them I fear this answer would be postponedanother week. You can find a list of types of witches/witchcraft here.
As far as witchcraft for mental health, this can be tackled with any form of witchcraft. I personally think that there is a little Green Witch in all of us because knowing the medical uses and correspondences of herbs and oils can be really useful. Take me for example! I’m slowly working toward switching from using medications to only using herbal remedies (please do not jump into this right away, this is something I’ve been researching for over a year now and takes lots of time and dedication to really understand and put to use) for my medical problems, and soon my PCP will be a naturopathic doctor. This doesn’t work for everyone, but it just goes to show that there is so much merit in using what nature freely gives us to cure our ailments.
A few more tips for you to start out:
Go to your local library and check out some books on the occult. Even if it’s a book about the history of witchcraft, that is an awesome place to start.
Get yourself a journal/the start of a Book of Mirrors. Here’s a great post explaining the difference between different witchy books. A BoM isn’t necessary, but it could help you immensely in keeping track of all the info you find and figuring out which path is right for you.
Don’t limit yourself! If one form of witchcraft seems to contradict another, you don’t have to throw one of them away yet. If you are interested in both of them, then study both of them; challenge yourself to find ways to make them cohesive. You may discover new beliefs you never knew you had.
You don’t need any deities. If you have one/some that’s great! But if you don’t currently follow any deities and don’t see yourself doing so in the future, that is completely and 100% valid. Do not let any old crotchety witch try to tell you that you need deities.
Have fun - I think a lot of new witches get caught up in the seriousness of research and forget that witchcraft can be so much fun. It’s empowering, incredible, breathtaking - it is what you make it, and if you’re constantly stressed about it then what’s the point?
Good luck, friend! I hope this helped to guide you in starting your journey. If you have any other questions or want to talk to me in PM, please feel free to do so! I’m happy to help in any way I can. Love and light. ❤
Project Time: 81 days of Tao
Recently I’ve been really trying to get in touch with my Buddhist self. I mean, that’s kind of the point, right? Part of my process for doing this is contemplation of the universe and how we fit into it. What better way to do this than with the Tao Te Ching?
Some important background info
Taoism and Buddhism are not one in the same. The Tao Te Ching, as the name suggests, is an ancient Chinese classical text written (possibly) by enlightened philosopher Lao Tzu. The text places a lot of focus on our material world, whereas Buddhism focuses on becoming one with our higher self through release of material ties.
It is my belief that in order to fully release from the material world, we must first understand it and all its workings. This is where a comprehensive look at the Tao Te Ching comes in.
My challenge to you
Over the next 3 months or so, I’ll be reading a chapter a day and recording my thoughts and feelings about what I’ve read. I challenge you to join me! I’ll be posting my journal entries here but you certainly don’t need to do so. I would, however, like to hear your experience along the way if you decide to join me with this project. There are 81 chapters in all. It’s a big task, but I think it’ll be worth it and beneficial to us. Who doesn’t need a little spiritual enlightenment, amirite?
If you’re not sure where to access the Tao Te Ching text, there are a few apps that give free access to all the chapters and a quick google search turned this up: boop it’s a link.
If you’ll be joining me in this project, leave a comment! If at all possible, I’d love for you guys to keep me (and others) accountable. If you see that I haven’t posted a journal entry in a while, kick me in the butt about it!
Discussion Time: Witchy Tools
When I first started my path as a witch, I did what I think a lot of beginner witches out there do... I spent way too much money on extremely overpriced items that appeared to be necessary witchy tools and to this day haven’t used nearly half of them. I have a few theories as to why we do this, and I’m sure these are collective beliefs.
1. We’re too excited to start in on witchy things to slow down and really research the things that might be useful to us
2. We’re looking for that Aesthetic™ that only certain materials have
3. We had yet to realize that magick is literally all around us, and we have the capability of making anything magickal with the right intent
Sounding familiar? If you’re new to witchcraft or are still stuck in this vicious cycle of spending way too much on items you probably won’t use in your craft, then hopefully these tips will be useful to you.
Tips for gathering materials
🕯️ Do your research - No seriously. Before you decide you want/need an item for your practice, look into why you want it and how you’ll be using it. How does it fit into your beliefs? What will you gain from using it? Is it readily available to you? What might be used as a substitute and are you comfortable using a substitute?
🕯️ Look past the aesthetic - This is what really got me. I bought a lot of items simply because they looked witchy, only to go home and realize I already had an item similar sans witchy vibe. If you find this to be the case, I urge you to use the items you already have and make them magickal. Charge the heck out of them with energy, crystals, moonlight, sunlight, etc. Paint or color them in some way to fit your aesthetic needs.
🕯️ Search around to see if you can get it cheaper - Don’t be afraid to be thrifty. If you’re buying an item online especially, search other sites and other shops to see if you can get an item for less money. A little research can be the difference between a $50 cauldron and a $20 one.
🕯️ Utilize the world around you - Nature has so much to offer us. Not only will you be able to find tools for witchcraft by taking a walk in nature, but it’s a good way to balance yourself and soak up the earth’s lovely vibes. Leaves, sticks, rocks, nuts, bones (careful with that one), etc... You never know what you might find to use in your craft.
🕯️ Invest in making your own items - This can get a little pricey to begin with, but in the long run, homemade items (if budgeted correctly) can save you a lot of money. I invested nearly $100 on natural items like oils and such and Castile soap to make my own body/face/hair/hand soaps a little over half a year ago. In the time since, I’ve only spent $15 on another bottle of Castile soap and I’m still using up my original bottle. Investing for the win.
Places to find items for cheap
Candles/Wax Melters
🕯️ Dollar Store - They have 6 packs of emergency candles for a dollar. They last quite a while and fit into any regular-sized stick candle holder. 🕯️ Dollar Store - You can get 112 tealight candles for $7 USD. At Target you can get 100 for $6.29 USD in white or ivory. If you want different colored candles, buy the white ones, melt them down over a flat electric stove and add a drop or two of food coloring then mix the color around with a toothpick. You could also add a drop of essential oils or herbs for a magick boost. Be careful not to burn yourself! 🕯️ Dollar Store - Wax melters are a dollar, and they are super cute and fit almost anywhere. I don’t suggest getting their scented wax cubes because they are pumped full of chemicals. The only reason I would say to get one package of their wax cubes is to throw out the wax and use the container as a mold to make your own wax cubes. 🕯️ Michaels - Paraffin wax is $27.99 for 9lbs., $19.99 for 4lbs., and $6.99 for 1lbs. Obviously 9lbs is your best deal, but these are overall what I have found to be the cheapest prices around that you can buy in store without having to buy online and pay shipping. 🕯️ Michaels - This is pretty much the only place I know of to get candle wicks for a relatively good price. It is possible to get candle wicks from Amazon for super cheap, I’m just lazy and would rather go to the store and pick up my items that day.
Herbs
🕯️ Fred Meyer - For those of you that know what this is (it’s mostly a West Coast thing, part of the Kroger company so if you look up the Kroger company equivalent nearest you I’m sure they’ll have something similar to this), Fred Meyer has been a life saver for me. They have an organic/natural section where, at most locations, you can buy herbs and other food items in bulk. They will have things like dried fruits, assorted seeds and nuts, rosemary, basil, clove, etc. You can also find aloe vera gel in the natural aisles, along with things like activated charcoal and other supplements in the natural vitamins section. There’s so much down these aisles that can be used for witchcraft that it really has to be experienced in person. No description will do this section of Fred Meyer any justice. 🕯️ Your back yard - Okay, obviously you’ll have to initially buy the plant/seeds in order to grow it, but growing your own herbs is so fulfilling. Plus you’ll be able to charge those little plant babies with other forms of magick while they grow. 🕯️ Your community - Take some time getting to know your surroundings. What plants are native to your area? Which ones are safe to use in your craft? Needled trees grow in abundance in my area along with moss and other temperate plants. Consider altering your style to lean toward what is freely available to you. 🕯️ Antique stores - Some antique stores will have full lavender, stem and all, in bundles that you can buy for relatively cheap. I love going to antique stores because I can usually find other treasures like figurines or metal boxes to store items in. Recently my grandmother went to an antique store and found a whole set of witchcraft items for only $50. There was a cauldron which I knew to be priced around $25-30, a tapestry made of thick cloth that would have been at least $20, an assortment of around 20 spell candles of all different colors, a copper bowl with a triple moon engraving, a vintage tarot deck and a beautiful beaded green tarot bag that they came in. For $50. It was an amazing deal.
Crystals
🕯️ Etsy - TheCornerCrystal; I love this shop. Everything is such a great price and the shop owner is so sweet! I sent a thank you message after my purchase and within 12 hours I had heard back from them and they just had the nicest things to say. I highly recommend checking out what this shop has to offer. 🕯️ Gem shows - Here in the Seattle area there are periodic gem shows where you can find different crystals and stones at awesome prices. I’ve never personally been (yet), but I know quite a few people who only have good things to say about these events.
Miscellaneous Items
🕯️ Joann Fabrics - If you have a sewing machine at your dispense and know how to sew in a straight line, I highly suggest going to Joann Fabrics and searching through the really cheap fabrics to make your own altar cloths/tarot bags/sachets/etc. It is so fulfilling to make these items yourself and use the finished product. 🕯️ Micheals - Jewelry wire is super cheap here. You can use it to create necklace pendants out of your crystals and stones. Don’t forget to thumb up those YouTube tutorials!

Hello! Thank you for your gracious offer of the tarot reading. I appreciate It :) My question is this: I've been working on trying to make manifest some, albeit selfish, things. Money, cars, a woman I like, a successful business career and what not. Should I still keep sending energy to the universe to make those things manifest or am I just wasting energy?
How to manifest your desires - Justice
This card signifies karma, fairness, honesty, balance, and reason.
Step back from your situation and take a few moments to analyze what it is you desire, why you desire it, and if it’s truly what you need to reach your end goals. You want a new car, well why? Does yours no longer run well? is it because a new car looks cool? is it to save money on gas in the long run? These are important questions to ask yourself in finding the things you truly desire and the correct course of action to manifest them. Don’t stop putting energy into manifesting your desires, but rather shift where your energy is directed for a more practical and fulfilling outcome.
Hope this helped! Good luck with your endeavors, friend. ✨
Preparing for Blue Supermoon Jan. 31st, 2018
This goes as a reminder to everyone that if there ever was a time to cleanse literally everything around you, it is during this full moon. That being said, it can take a bit of time to prepare for a such an event like this.
Don’t forget to cleanse:
🌕 Crystals/Stones 🌕 Candles 🌕 Herbs 🌕 Tarot/Oracle Decks 🌕 Runes 🌕 Water 🌕 Oils 🌕 Jars/Bottles 🌕 Phone/Laptop 🌕 BoS/Grimoire 🌕 Athame 🌕 Incense 🌕 Robes/Ritual Clothing 🌕 Jewelry 🌕 Lighters/Matches 🌕 Altar Cloths 🌕 Statues/Figurines 🌕 Personalized Items
This isn’t a complete list! If there are other things you feel need cleansing, by all means, do so!
Tips for before, during and after:
🌕 Ward the heck out of your area - all your tools will be out in the open charging and being cleansed so you need to make sure you and your area are protected 🌕 Gather rain water to make rain moon water 🌕 Purify tap water by distilling it with a pot, the lid, a bowl and ice cubes 🌕 Go through all your items and sell/gift/get rid of anything you don’t use or need 🌕 Tidy your spaces 🌕 Create any herb waters you’d like to charge 🌕 Ask your deities to help give the cleanse an extra boost
🌕 If your bed is near a window that gets moonlight, keep your curtains open to soak up the moon’s energy while you sleep 🌕 Get a full 8 hours of sleep
🌕 IMPORTANT - Not every space in your house will have been reached by the moon’s energy, so before you go putting all your tools and things back in their places, cleanse and purify those areas 🌕 Thank the moon and your deities for watching over you and your precious tools and items during the Blue Supermoon
