Witch Tip Of The Day:

I drink my water with little packets of “propel” or “liquid iv” to help boost the hydration levels of my body when I intake water. To get the powder to mix well with the water in the bottle, I pour it in and then seal the cap and shake it like a maraca. While I do this I set the intention to energize and get my spiritual energy moving! And then after thoroughly shaking it I drink the water! You could even repeat a chant that applies to the intention you are setting!

Sympathetic Magic - Coin's Notes

Hi-res download of infographic available on my ko-fi for all supporters!

What is Sympathetic Magic?

The idea of sympathetic magic, the term was likely coined by James George Frazer in his book The Golden Bough (1889). Though Richard Andree wrote of sympathy-enchantment in 1882, and the idea existed in some form or another since ancient times.

The definition of sympathetic magic in the merriam-webster dictionary is magic based on the assumption that a person or thing can be supernaturally affected through its name or an object representing it.

Types of Sympathetic Magic

Similarity: That which resembles something can represent or substitute that thing. Such as a citrine to represent the sun or a walnut for the brain.

Contagion/Contact: That which comes in contact with something can represent or substitute that thing. Such as moon water, water that is charged under the moon to hold its power and likeness.

Imitation: Close to similarity except it often involves specifically creating something to look like that thing such as idols, effigies, poppets, etc.

Correspondence: The idea that something can influence another thing due to their resemblance or relationship. Such as oranges and the sun or Aphrodite and roses.

Burying Spells - Some Important Thoughts (on what we can do better)

Burying spells (spell jars specifically) is a very common practice in witchcraft, but as someone really passionate about the environment there are aspects that a lot of people aren't aware of. I think it's important to discuss, so let's talk about it!

Disclaimer: This is not to bash anyone who buries their spell jars/remnants. I just want to give some education on the subject, especially to younger witches getting into the practice <3

What Are Spell Jars?

For those who aren't aware, a spell jar is (usually) a form of spellwork in which a jar is the vessel for your magic. Spell jars are generally used for protection, but many people also use them for hexing and baneful magic. They're very beginner friendly forms of witchcraft, and as such a lot of new witches tend to gravitate towards them.

History of Burying

The idea of burying spell jars, generally tends to come from the concept of a "witch's bottle". This was a form of protection magic made in older times, with its purpose being to protect against negative energy. Not all of these bottles were buried, but it was commonly done to conceal magic from others (typically under a doorstep or within a fireplace).

This became especially prevalent during the 1600s when practicing witchcraft was dangerous.

Why Shouldn't We Bury?

To get the most obvious point out of the way, burying spell jars is adding to pollution of the environment. It's litter, and shouldn't be seen as any other way. Spell jars don't grow in the environment, and it doesn't belong there. The witchcraft community is one that tends to honor nature, so this practice sticks out like a sore thumb.

Another common practice I've seen within the community is burying baneful spell jars in spaces such as graveyards. This is disrespectful to those who reside in them; the dead don't deserve to be surrounded by that sort of negative energy.

Rivers or bodies of water are also common places for people to put their spell jars and other remnants. This also shouldn't be taking place. Creatures living in these bodies of waters can be harmed by this littering.

Glass are paraffin wax are not biodegradable, flowers from the grocery store can be laced with pesticides, microplastics can be found in salt and synthetic vinegar can impact the ph of soil.

Alternatives

Use biodegradable vessels such as bell peppers

Use ingredients that are safe for the environment

Put remnants into compost bins

Display your spell jars on shelves, and hide baneful jars in dark places

There we go! Hopefully this post has been helpful for how we can be better witches for a better earth <3

watch out for energy vampires. the ones who make you feel completely drained after being with them or talking to them. the ones who take and take and take from you mentally, emotionally and physically without giving anything in return like ( advice, help, a shoulder to cry on etc ) these are the kind of people you need to break away from. all the love, kindness and consideration you give, you deserve to receive it as well ♡

I find myself returning slowly to the nostalgia and safety that is tumblr for me. I enjoy coming here to express myself freely.

Many aspects of my interests and hobbies have changed but I feel more like my authentic self. The more I invest in myself the more I have come to better understand myself and what I need for me.

From rediscovering old hobbies to investing in new ones that bring me joy.

Spiritual Hygiene

Spiritual hygiene is basically keeping yourself, cleansed, protected and grounded spiritually. People tend to try and do this through daily practices, which for some can be hard to upkeep. As someone with depression and can be lazy at times- sticking to routines can be difficult for me. So here’s some “basics” you can try to slowly add to your day to day that will give you a regular spiritual hygiene routine.

Cleanse yourself when you shower: This can be as simple as asking the water to cleanse you while you shower. Sometimes showering can be hard- for times like this i recommend a cleansing spray. Quick and fairly low spoons. But if you want to put more energy into this step you can enchant your soap/body wash for cleansing, hang eucalyptus above your shower and ask it to cleanse you, make a shower sachet, use spellcrafted oils for cleansing, ect.

Enchant your jewelry and/or skincare for protection: Obviously this one is for when you feel up to doing an actual spell. But, once its done you can just put your jewelry or skincare on for the day and be good to go. Every once in awhile take a moment to check in with your jewelry/items and see if it needs to be cleansed (or make a jewelry cleansing bowl) or needs to be re-enchanted.

Ground yourself when you wake up: once you wake up take even a minute to ground and center yourself. This works both if youre a person like myself who needs to lay in bed for a few minutes before getting up, or if youre a crazy person whos ready to go right away.

Even doing these three things through the week will help build you a strong spiritual hygiene routine and daily practice. Remember to take your time when building a daily practice, and forgive yourself if it’s not done everyday. ✨🫶🏻
