Watch out, I’ll hex you.

[french-baby-witch]

I researched about familiars today, after re-reading the post I reblogged about them. I looked for a tarot spread to help me find my familiar, but I didn’t find any (if you know one, feel free to share it in the comments) so I made my own !

And I made a sigil too. Because I love sigils. (Same, if you know other sigils with a similar effect, don’t be shy !)

Precision about the tarot spread : The first question might also be “Am I ready / what do I need to be ready [to find a familiar] ?”

[witchesversuspatriarchy]

Its really not good to hold onto anger. It can poison you, drive you to change who you are to feed the fires of rage. That doesn’t mean you can’t defend yourself.

The existence of rules implies a ruler

Unfortunately it looks like “our moons” don’t match… sorry

For those of you who don’t know me, I suffer from a chronic illness and I spend a LOT of time bedridden. I also happen to be a witch! I don’t let being trapped in bed stop me from practicing my craft. Here are some resources I’ve compiled from my personal experiences and the help of others <3

Bedridden Witch: The Setup

A revamp of my very first bedridden witch post, which now pales in comparison to all my themed ones! This post is all about setting up your bedroom/space to aid in witchcraft while bedbound. See my other bedridden posts for ideas on performing witchcraft while bedridden (click here!).

The Bed:

Pillow:

Pillowcase color correspondences

Sigils in pillowcase

Scented (or not) sachet under pillow

Crystals under pillow or (small ones) in pillowcase

Tarot cards under pillow

Mattress:

Sheets/bedding color correspondences

Sigils under mattress

Spray with scented mist (I have one from a local lavender farm)

Wash with scented (or not) detergent that has specific correspondences/components

Under the bed:

Tie a sachet underneath the bed

Place/secure a physical tie for your wards under each corner–if you spend a lot of time in bed, reinforcing the wards specifically on your bed can be helpful

Keep a crate/drawer of frequently used witchy supplies you can easily access; crystals, herbs, divination tools, spell components, etc. 

Keep a stack of witchcraft books you want to read

Bedside table:

Store supplies: crystals, books, sprays, etc. 

A surface for candles; flame or electric, or a Himalayan salt lamp. Wax melters are also fantastic.

A surface for a EO or reed diffuser

Keep a charging board there for the crystals you use

Keep your favorite divination tools nearby

A nice spot to keep your grimoire/journal

Create a small altar

Spell jars

Walls:

Hang….

Herb and/or spell sachets

Artwork that relates to your craft

Devotional work/prayers

Star and moon phase charts

Witches ladder

Herb/flower/plant garlands

Plants to dry

Fairy/twinkle lights along the top of the walls

Physical tie for your wards in each corner

A hanging altar

Window/Windowsill:

Curtain color correspondences

Hang a rainbow prism to let the sunlight scatter through your space

Place some houseplants or herbs on the windowsill

Hang windchimes outside

Hang bird feeders outside

Place a rain gauge outside 

Other: 

Decorate with seasonal things (flowers, leaves, paper snowflakes, etc.)

Keep jars of the different elements and/or their correspondences (water, earth, air, fire)

Keep spell bottles nearby. 

Having a bed tray (typically used for food) can make a great working surface

Technology can also help tie everything together: ambiance tracks, videos of things like a fire crackling, snow falling, a stream, a forest, etc. 

This post remains fairly neutral/vague, but designing your space with a certain theme can influence your craft!

it makes me sad seeing bi girls on here coming to terms with the fact that theyre bi and then being like “i‘m not saying i have a voice in the lgbt community because i’ve only dated men, i know my opinions don’t matter because of that i know i’m not really part of the community” it makes my heart hurt. if you’re a bi woman and you’ve only ever dated men, you’re still part of the lgB!!!!!!!t community like that’s what the B stands for!!

Cord Cutting Rituals

Background Info:

Cord cutting rituals are conducted typically at the end of a relationship, whether that be platonic or romantic in nature. The whole concept of cord cutting rituals stems from the idea that one needs to cut their etheric ties to someone or something. Doreen Virtue, a former spiritualist who has now since converted, says that etheric cords “act like hoses, with energy directed back and forth between both people.”

Etheric cords have the potential to transmit energy and communication between two people, but sometimes this cord becomes unhealthy. In my own personal experience, cords that are unhealthy often result in an obsession with that person, a fear that you’re being manipulated, and in some cases the knowledge that you’re being gaslit even if the relationship itself has ended.

The purpose of cord cutting rituals is cutting those unhealthy energetic ties to someone or something (like an addiction!). A cord cutting ritual will allow you to move on to better things and leave that unhealthy tie in your past.

Cord Cutting Ritual

Supplies: -Incense (optional) -Candle -A picture of yourself and the thing you are cutting cords to (if you don’t have a photo, the names written on a piece of paper works well) -Scissors -A cord (can be yarn, thread, rope, etc.)

The way I conduct cord cutting rituals are a bit different than most sources I’ve seen. One of the dangers of a cord cutting ritual I want to urge you to be aware of is that if you do not remove the cord from you, that cord can reappear. While cord cutting can entirely be symbolic (i.e. making the motion of cutting a cord as opposed to cutting a literal cord), I prefer the method of doing it literally as well.

Since this is a ritual, I encourage you to cast a circle so there is no unwanted energy that seeps in or out. If you prefer not to cast a circle, however, that is absolutely fine. Just make sure that your space is protected so the energy raised doesn’t spill out or any unwanted energy seeps in.

If you’d like to pray to your ancestors, speak with any of your guides or deities or entities you work with, do so now. I like to ask them to enter my space and be with me as I do my work.

Dress your candle if you so choose. Your candle will represent the healing energy for after your cord cutting. You can use herbs or oils (be sure to use carrier oils if you’re using essential oil blends!) or carve sigils/runes/symbols into the candle! Do it however you like.

Light your candle and as it burns, feel the healing energy of the candle wash over you.

Take your pictures or your names written on a piece of paper and then your “cord” and attach the cord between the photo or the pieces of paper.

Take your scissors or knife or whatever you’ll be cutting the cord with. As you cut the cord, visualize the tie between you and the object being cut, severing those ties. Once you’re ready, untie the cords attached to your end and visualize those cords being dug out of your energetic self so that nothing remains.

Visualize yourself and the other person as healed and whole. Let the candle burn either all at once or over several days, whichever you need to feel that healing energy. Once your ritual has ended, dispose of the cords in two separate places. You can burn them or bury them, whichever you feel is right.
