Hi there!! Uses for crushed red pepper, chili powder, orange peel, and paprika please please please? o:

Hello there friend.Of course, I’d be happy to help.Crushed red pepper - Used by people who want to evade their enemies traps and tricks. Good to mix with spells, potions or simply eaten on a meal.

Chili powder - Scatter powder around the house to break hexes and spells against you.

Orange peel - Use in sachets & amulets to bring luck to business negotiations.

Paprika - Used to add energy to other spells.

With luck, Magpie.

Hello there friend.Lavender candles are good for manifestation and selflessness, spirituality, compassion, understanding, inspiration, make contact with higher-Self, attract spiritual assistance, very calming.Royal blue candles promote laughter and joviality, color or loyalty, use to attract Jupiter energy, or whenever an influence needs to be increased.With luck, Magpie.

Hi, well, Do you know of any spells that are really easy to get ingredients for enhancing my psycic abilities?

Hello there friend.Using bay leaves, celery, cinnamon, lemon, lemon grass, mint, rosemary, sage or thyme is supposed to enhance your psychic powers.You can use all of these in a variety of ways such as having them with food or drink, burning them (if possible), keeping them in a sachet beneath your pillow or having them infused in a bath (if it won’t irritate your skin). With luck, Magpie.

Can I use a pentacle-shaped incense holder in my alter as a pentacle? Or does it have to be made of certain materials?

Hello there friend.I cannot speak for everyone in the craft when I answer this but personally both myself and thefriendlywitch can't see an issue with using the incense holder as a pentacle itself. I would be careful if you're intending to burn things upon it, however, as some incense holders can only deal with very low heat like that of an incense ember. If it's stone or metal, that would be fine.With luck, Magpie.

How does one find dragon's blood for the home purification?

Hello there dear. Dragon’s Blood is, in its purest form, a bright red resin that is sourced from a number of distinct plant genera: namely Croton, Dracaena, Daemonorops, Calamus rotang and Pterocarpus. My favoured method of incorporating it into spell work is via incense - it’s the cleanest way, I find, since resin can stain and gets everywhere. It can be easily sourced online or in your local Wiccan/Witchy/metaphysical shop. The resin can be purchased online too. Look here.I hope this helps, friend.Blessed be and happy casting.

Uhm, hi I just did my first ever spell and I was just wondering how can I see if its working? And it was a love spell.

Hello there friend. Have the effects you sought to produce with the spell occurred? If so, perhaps it did work. If not, perhaps not. Have patience. Precious little about magical practise is instant, particularly where first spells are concerned. It takes a lot of work to bring about changes in this world.

Blessed be and happy practise.
