Black Cat Oil ♠️🐱 Return to Sender/Protection

Hello again! I'm back, I took a bit of a break from my practice as I just wasn't in the mental state. But I'm back as I'm feeling much better.

I made some black cat oil as my last batch I noticed was almost gone as I use this almost every day.

This magickal oil can be used for protection and return to sender. I personally put a drop of this along the four corners of my property and my bedroom to protect myself from any harm that comes my way.

What I used:

✨ A couple drops of moon charged oil

✨ A small chunk of protection charged black tourmaline

✨Canola oil (don't feel like you have to use fancy oils)

✨ Patchouli and Sandalwood essential oils

✨ Black salt

✨ Frankincense ground in my mortar and pestle

✨ Myrrh ground in my mortar and pestle

✨ Chili flakes

As I added each ingredient I put my intention into the oil. By the time I was done I could feel it vibrating with energy.

Feel free to add as much or as little of each ingredient. You can also change it up to make it more personal to you. I used what I personally felt would protect me.

If you have any questions please let me know.

As always!

Blessed Be 🌒🌕🌘

💸 Job Interview Oil 💸

Merry Meet!

So I have a job interview on Thursday, so I figured I'd make a good luck/prosperity oil.

Quick reminder! There are no rules in Witchcraft! Add what you want to your oil. For example if you feel like red clover is a really good herb for prosperity, then throw it in. It's all about you and your intuition that makes your workings so magickal.

What I added:

🌜 Cloves

🌜Canola oil (I'm broke and can't afford any other oil)

🌜Bay leaf

🌜 Rosemary

🌜 Mint

🌜 Cinnamon Chips

🌜 Peppermint essential oil

🌜 A small piece of Lapis

Super simple. I'm leaving it on my altar overnight, so I can get charged even more. Remember to put your intent into each and every ingredient!

Blessed Be 🌒🌕🌘

Keeping Pet Safe When Practicing Witchcraft 🐰

Hello everyone! Today I'm going to discuss keeping pets safe. I think it's super important!

I personally have a big chocolate lab that's constantly sticking his nose into my witchy space (not that I mind) and I also have a rabbit that's very adventurous.

One thing about rabbits is that they have very sensitive lungs and are prone to respiratory issues because of that. Labs aren't as bad but you still want to make sure they aren't being affected by anything. So I make sure my fur babies are in a safe toxic free environment.

I would never in a million years burn oils with my pets in the house let alone in the same room as them. Most of the oils are toxic to your pets. DO NOT BURN OILS AROUND YOUR PETS! I was at a metaphysical shop a week or so ago and this was a discussion between everyone. Everyone was saying how they always burn oils around their pets because it doesn't seem to be harming them. Just because it doesn't seem like it's harming them doesn't mean it's not harming them. It's extremely toxic to them.

Incense can also be toxic to your pets. Especially if you're using chemical filled incense. It's not nearly as toxic as oils but still toxic. I won't burn these in the same room as my pets but I still burn them when I'm in the room by myself. When I do burn them I crack open a window so that the room can air out.

Candles are actually fine for the most part. Some scented candles can be toxic but you should just do your research on that. However when you snuff a candle make sure to crack open a window so that the smoke doesn't fill the room because that is really what gets to them. Obviously keep them away from a flame as you don't want them either starting a fire or burning themselves.

Don't leave herbs lying around, especially if you have a dog like mine that will eat just about anything. Some herbs can be toxic to your furry friends. For example cinnamon is toxic to rabbits I would never in a million years leave a cinnamon stick out where she could possibly get into it.

Same thing goes for crystals keep them out of reach. My dog has snatched a crystal and ran away with it. Luckily he didn't do much damage but still.

Keep your fur babies safe! 💞

Blessed Be 🌒🌕🌘

10 Simple Ways To Add Witchcraft to your everyday life

Hello Everyone! Today I wanted to go over some simple ways to go incorporate witchcraft into your everyday lives. If your anything like me, a lot of the time you simply don’t have time to do spells, potions, etc. I have school, chores, and errands. I simply don’t have time.

I used feel super guilty when I didn’t do a spell, or anything of the sort throughout my day. It wasn’t until I realized I do many things throughout my day that are actually very witchy.

Here are just a few ways to incorporate witchcraft into your everyday life:

1. Incense! I absolutely love lighting Incense because not only do they smell amazing, but they’re also very cleansing. The smoke from the incense spreads throughout the room, cleansing your space. It’s a win, win!

2. Light a candle or two. Lighting a candle is super witchy. Candles are an important part of witchcraft so just lighting a candle has it’s magickal properties. You could also light the candle with an intention in mind, boom magick.

3. Tea! Tea is very magickal and delicious. Each type of tea has its very own magickal properties. So drink up!

4. Cooking a meal. This could just be me but I think cooking is very magickal especially when you add different herbs to your meal.

5. Take some time to just admire the sun or the moon. It can be anywhere from just 1 minute to 20 minutes.

6. Water your plants. Show your plant friends some love!

7. Sigils. I draw a sigil with foundation before I blend it into my skin, I personally just love the way I feel when I do this. The ideas are endless on where to put your sigils.

8. Meditation. You could do this for as long as you want, I personally meditate for a minute or so while I’m waiting for my bath to fill up.

9. Crystals. Just hold your crystals, whenever I’m stressed I just hold my crystal and feel the energy just pouring out of them. It makes me feel a million times better.

10. Leave a glass of water on your window sill overnight to charge it and then drink it in the morning or make some tea with it.

What To Do With Moon Water

Hello everyone! I wanted to make a post about what you can do with the moon water that you may or may not have collected this week. There are so many things you can do with moon water.

☾ Make some tea or coffee! Just brew it in some moon water.

☾ Take a bath! I’m not saying to fill your entire bath with moon water because that would be really difficult to do. Just add some moon water to your bath. How much or how little you put in is up to you.

☾ Cook with it! Tonight I’m personally going to add some moon water to a pot along with some plain water and I’m going to make some pasta. I always do the night after a full moon. Or I’ll make dumplings from scratch. You could even just steam some veggies, get creative!

☾ Each morning until the next full moon take a sip of moon water so you can charge yourself up with the amazing properties of the moon.

☾ Do a spell or ritual. If you incorporate some moon water into your spell work I’ve found the spells are much stronger.

☾ Water your plant babies with some moon water. This will charge them with the properties of the full moon.

☾ Make a homemade facial toner. For example I’ll do 1 part apple cider vinegar, 1 part witch hazel, and 2 parts moon water. This makes my skin feel amazing.

☾ Give some to your familiar! Pour some into they’re bowl and let them drink up. I have yet to find my familiar so I just give some to my dog whom I love so dearly.

I hope this gave you some ideas on ways to use your moon water!

Cleansing Your Tarot Cards

Hello everyone! I wanted to talk about something I don't see a lot of people talking about but I think it's SUPER important, cleansing your tarot cards. Just like with crystals tarot cards need cleansing too.

I cleanse them at least once a week. I'm always doing my families readings, and they've been touching my cards. This could just be me but I feel that it really affects my readings.

How to cleanse tarot cards:

☾ Allow the moon to cleanse them. Leave them on your window sill overnight.

☾ Organize them into they're original order, starting with the major arcana to the minor arcana suits. I feel this just kind of resets them in a way. This also gives you some time to just really focus in on your cards.

☾ Meditate with your cards. Hold your deck of cards in both hand and meditate focus on cleansing your cards. When I do this I just feel my energy pour into the cards.

☾ Salt burial. This one is one of my personal favorite methods. Put your cards in a Ziploc bag and squeeze as much air out as you can. Then take a bowl bigger than your tarot cards and add a thin layer of salt, place your bagged cards on top of the salt. Pour more salt over the top making sure to completely cover the cards. Cover the bowl with some cling wrap and let it sit for anywhere from 6 hours to a couple days just until you feel like they're cleansed. Make sure to immediately disposed of the salt.

☾ Smudge your cards. You can either do this with a sage smudge stick or just a plain old incense stick. Either one, I've done both, and they have the same results. Light your smudge stick/incense stick. Once it's started smoking bathe your card in the smoke. Keep doing this until you feel that they are cleansed you'll just get this gut feeling that they're done.

Bath Rituals

Bath rituals are one of my favorite things to do. They’re super relaxing and they’re super affective when it comes to putting my intent out into the universe.

While I’m in the bath I meditate on my intent, this allows me to have my full focus on the ritual at hand. You could even say a little spell while you’re in the bath, do you boo.

Love Bath 💞 (This is also a self love spell, just keep that clear within your intent)

A couple drops of Rose essential oils, Lavender

Rose petals

Cinnamon

Jasmine

Jasmine or vanilla incense.

Red, white, and/or pink candles.

Rose quartz and/or clear quartz

Money Bath 💸 (Luck bath)

Rosemary

Thyme

Ginger

Nutmeg

Basil

Also you could just sprinkle in some pumpkin pie spice into your bath.

Cinnamon incense

Clear quartz

Green Candles

Protection bath 🚫

A couple drops mint peppermint essential oil

Black salt

Anglican

Sage smudge

Black Tourmaline and Clear Quartz

Full Moon Bath 🌕

A couple drops of eucalyptus essential oil

Pink Himalayan salt

Baking soda

White candles

Lavender Incense

Clear quartz and/or moonstone

There are so many different ritual baths these are just a few. Remember you can add whatever you feel like adding to these baths as this is your ritual bath. For example you don’t feel like Ginger is good for a money bath, then take it out. If a herb feels right that isn’t in this list for these baths then add it to it. This is all about you the more personal you make it the better!

Connecting With Tarot Cards

I got a new deck of tarot cards so recently so I’ve been working on building a personal connection with them. I personally think it’s super important to connect with them. The better connection you have with your cards the more accurate your spreads will be.

Here are some ways I personally like to connect with my tarot cards:

☾Taking them everywhere with me, I put my tarot cards in my purse. This once again helps build that connection with them being on you constantly.

☾I also think adding your tarot cards to your meditation sessions also help a ton!

☾Interviewing my tarot cards through different spreads. The image down below is one of my favorite spreads for this.

☾Let your cards get to know you as well. I do this by doing an assortment of different spreads. This allows the cards to get used to you and vise versa.

☾When I’m home I set my cards on my altar, I don’t think this is necessary but I personally like to do it.

If you just get a deck of cards don’t get upset or discouraged if your spreads aren’t accurate, it normally takes some time for your cards to get used to you, and vise versa. So keep working on building that connection with your tarot cards!

❤️🛁 Love Bath 🛁❤️

Recently I've just been feeling really down about myself. So I decided to take a love bath. I've been in need of just taking some time for myself and focusing on something positive, like love.

What I used 💞:

Cinnamon

Ginger

Mint and Eucalyptus bubble bath

Rose quartz

Lavender scented candle (I'd also recommend a pink candle or just a plain white candle.)

Vanilla incense

(Optional) Coconut oil

Basically while I was taking this lovely bath I was meditating on self love. Just focusing on this made me feel a lot better. Hopefully I start feeling a bit better 😊
