Hi. Do you have a resource recommendation for correspondences?
Hi 👋🏼 No
I’m kind of...not a great person to ask for a straight up list for anything. I’m the asshole who tells you how to figure stuff out yourself...sorry.
Fighting Fear to Make Your Own Magic
This is a post with a tip and example of how to determine personal correspondences. This is especially helpful for plants and herbs that are more local or unique and not obviously “witchy”. You could use this for trees or shrubs since not everyone has access or ability to grow the classic ingredients.
How to get comfortable with new herbs and spices
Just an easy way to mindfully and simply connect to edible plants and herbs by eating smelling cooking and tasting. Helpful for broom closet witches who may be relegated to only using kitchen herbs for craft related needs and not having purely craft usage ones.
Tips on how to google in a productive/helpful manner
So when I’m researching a new plant or herb, or even crystal or incense, this is usually the format I use to search. There’s also correspondences for pine and birch in this post.
So hopefully that can help you personalize your correspondences to what you use regularly and what you may be able to use that you didn’t consider before!
Last piece of advice, print or write that stuff down. Scrap book it, write it by hand, make a google doc or something so you can reference it easier and even offline. Even a quick paragraph printed out that you write a note scrawled in the margins will give you a better grasp of it and fill up your grimiore faster than you think. Filling it with stuff you researched to use means you’ll have a good reference of what you actually have access to instead of buying a book that 80% is stuff you will never even come across.
