Age of Aquarius

as saturn as entered aquarius, here’s how the progression has impacted lifes as seen below:

Being forced to change our lifestyles due to uprising presence of virus

revelation by society on the flaws in our economy, work and healthcare system

relying more on technology to function in our daily lives

rise of tiktoks and social media to spread views and awareness

people working together as a country to fight and protect

less focus on status and salary, more focus on healthcare, food service and cleaners (who are typically overlooked by society)

creativity and talents showing because more people are forced to be alone and thus they can reflect on themselves more

funny enough, there’s rebellion by certain groups of people who do not oblige to quarantine or no party rules. “i’d rather get the virus than stay home”

being united as a community although people are individually isolated (aquarius is known as the humanitarian sign that cares for the community as a whole rather than the individual)

rise of non profit organizations or kind acts to strangers and providing help for people

For beginner witches ✨

Learn the phases of the moon and what each phase contributes for you. Also, search up “tonight’s moon phase” and it’ll tell you what moon is there that night and tell you when to expect other phases!

PHASE CORRESPONDENCES •full moon: love magick, charging, healing, banishing, cleansing, clarity •Waxing gibbous: motivation, attraction, success, good health •Dark/new moon: deconstructive magick, curses, banishing, soul searching, divination •waning crescent: balance, success, attaining wisdom, atonement, illness •last quarter: breaking bad habits, relinquishing, breaking curses, banishing •waning gibbous: relinquishing, undoing bindings, cleansing, undoing curses •Waxing crescent: constructive magick, attraction, wealth/success, luck & friendship

Use this for magick and making moon water. To make moon water you simply put some water under the moon, it’s okay if it’s cloudy, and you only need to put it out for an hour or more. Store it in a dark space.

Sun water: for ego, dignity, power, pride, self confidence and leader ship Just leave water under the sun and store in a light/open area.

💋⚘💖Herbs, Roots and Curios for Love Spells in Hoodoo 💖⚘💋

Just a little list of different herbs and roots and stuff regularly used in hoodoo/rootwork for love drawing, attracting lovers, creating passion, etc! Feel free to do more of your own research, as these various herbs and roots can be used in all sorts of spells, bags, baths…

💖JEZEBEL ROOT - attracts men and lovers with money! Highly loved by sex workers.

💋QUEEN ELIZABETH ROOT (Orris root) - I’ve seen some people say this root should only be used by women trying to seek a man, but that’s not true. The root itself can be consecrated in the name of the woman you wish to attract. If you’re a lesbian or a woman or someone who is more femme aligned and are searching for another femme aligned partner, you can use two of these to represent you and the target you’d like to draw. If you’re more masculine and your target is more masculine, like for example if you’re butch, you can use High John root, and if your target is femme you can use Queen Elizabeth. Or if youre both masculine, you can use High John. Same goes for gay men, and literally everyone lol. Even if a lot of websites try to put heternormativity on these roots, regardless of your assigned gender, gender identity, sexual orientation, etc, you can use them. These roots have always been used by LGBT+ identifying practitioners. You just gotta make it work for you, don’t let them tell you otherwise. Let the roots and their energy guide you and you decide how to best implement them in your work.

💖CATNIP - amazing in both love work and attraction. Used traditionally to attract lovers and catch and keep their attention.

💋DAMIANA - a strong aphrodisiac long used by the indigenous people of Mexico, this plant can be used to increase passion or to make a lover stay with you.

💖LAVENDER - this sweet smelling herb brings love to you regardless of gender, especially when mixed with rose buds. A very peaceful herb.

💋DEERSTONGUE - gives you fine speech, so I can imagine this is good for sweet talking your way into someone’s arms. Popularly used in both court case and love spells, used to attract and convince someone to love or marry you.

💖CARDAMOM - Brings good luck in love affairs and sexual relationships! Use this if you’re looking for more lusty effects, as this is a warmer spicier kind of thing.

💋DILL - another lusty herb, these seeds bring good luck to romantic matters, and can be used in love drawing baths

💖HIBISCUS - amazing in love spells, this sweet flower is another good ingrediant if you’re looking for a lusty effect. Used as an aphrodisiac, for passion and for lust and love.

💋MANDRAKE ROOT - (poisonous obviously so be careful) believed to aid in fertility, considered a strong aphrodisiac. Can be used to make love dolls.

💖GINGER ROOT/JAMAICA ROOT - in hoodoo it’s used to heat up love spells, and is good for increasing passion.

💋LOTUS ROOT- used in love works and works of fertility! It’s associated with water and the moon.

💖GENTIAN ROOT - draws good luck in love! Attracts love towards you and keeps it with you.

💋HONEYSUCKLE - enhances love and sexuality, these petals are also used to sweeten people to you, but also for good luck and prosperity.

💖LOVAGE ROOT - a go-to root for love work! Used to make one more attractive and alluring to others!

💋JASMINE - the scent of these flowers evoke passion and love! Some call the scent an aphrodisiac, and many use it in love drawing spells.

💖CUBEB BERRIES - used to control a lover. Another herb that is better suited for lusty and sexual love kind of spells.

💋JUNIPER BERRIES - they’re great for sexual love magic! Used to attract a sexual partner but can also be used for protection.

💖CORIANDER - the seeds create passion! Helps with keeping your love faithful.

Using Glitter In Spells

Glitter makes everything better, including your spells. 

Using glitter when dressing your candles can add an extra kick to all of your spells. It is also a cheap alternative when all you have are white candles and still want to use corresponding colors in your work.

If you’re dressing a taper or coach candle you can simply put the oil on first and roll in the desired glitter. If you’re dressing a novena candle (glass encased) you can sprinkle a bit on top just be careful not to use too much since the top can catch on fire. Glitter and glitter glue can also be used to decorate engraved sigils/words carved onto your candles. Some ideas include:

Gold/Silver: Money work, luck, gambling, job searching

Green: Money, luck, growth in any aspect

Orange: Attraction, opening roads, success

Pink: Happiness, Love (best for new love and spells not focused on sex), friendship

Red: Lust, Passionate love, Courage, Strength 

Yellow: Communication, mental energy, Happiness

Blue: Healing, Water spells

Purple: Power, domination work, crown of success

Black: Substitute for any color, binding, hexing

If these correspondences don’t resonate with you that’s 100% okay and feel free to use what calls to you for your own practice. Happy Glittering!

7-Day Glass Candle Interpretation

In the spiritual world omens are everywhere and there are no such thing as coincidences. You can use signs around you to guide your life and your workings if you only know how to interpret them. 7 day candles have long been used by hoodooists to read a specific working and determine its effectiveness, or warn of any problems or solutions. Just like reading tea leaves, the burnt candles can provide valuable insight. SOOT The soot on a candle is one of the most recognizable results of burning a candle. While in the mundane world one might say this was merely soot, in the spiritual we know there is a message to be interpreted in that soot. Black soot is a sign of negativity and witchcraft.

If the soot does not travel all the way down the glass, is only at the top or perhaps stops in the middle, the negative influence or obstacle has been unblocked.

If the black goes down the entire length of the candle it means your working has been blocked and there are still things preventing you for attaining your desired result. It could also indicate someone has casted against you or has significant spiritual protection. If this is the case burn another candle to try to break through their defenses.

If the soot is at the bottom of the candle it is a warning that negative influences are being sent to you. This can be the case when someone casts against you.

White soot is another matter all together. This can indicate spiritual communication, purity, and exorcism. It could indicate that the spirits have heard your prayers and removed the negativity from the working. This is especially true in unhexing rituals. Again, look to the amount of soot to tell you if it is completed or not.

If the soot only goes half way down or less, the cleansing was successful.

If the soot is carried through the length of the candle you may need further cleansing and spiritual work.

If the soot is at the bottom of the candle, it signifies the presence of outside aid or help either spiritually or physically.

If the candle burned half black and half white this means that one aspect is overriding the other. Look to which is on top to see what was undone. If black is on top, your spirits cleared it. If white is on top the spirits of another have combated your attempts.

If the soot is on only one side of the candle, this is a sign that what you are doing is incorrect. Either the candle fixing wasn’t appropriate or the spirits aren’t happy with the candle itself.

FLAME The flame is by far the most important part of any candle working. The subtle actions of the flame can tell you a lot from the moment you light it, to the moment it goes out. Let start with lighting the flame.

If the candle does not light this means that this type of working will not work for what you need and another type of spell should be used.

If the candle lights and splits into two or more flames, this indicates the presence of others, either spirits, deities, or human, getting involved. Look to the rest of the candle to interpret whether this person is good or bad. If you are trying to split up a couple and both flames stay lit, the couple will stay together. If you are doing a working for attract a lover and the second flame seems to rise out of the wax your working will be successful especially if both flames grow into one large flame.

If the candle flame is high it means there is a lot of power behind the spell and little resistance. If the candle burns low it means there is a strong opposing spiritual force and a cleansing and or banishing may be needed.

If the flame makes a crackling or popping sound it indicates conversation. Either the spirits are trying to talk to you or the target is talking about you. Look to the purpose of the candle and the other actions of the flame to determine which is which.

If the flame flickers there is a spirit around. If the flame pops while flickering it is the spirit trying to communicate to you. Open yourself up to it. If it is a devotional candle and it is flickering it means you are in contact with your deity and any prayers or petitions will be heard.

If you attempt to blow out the flame and it does not go out this means the spirit does not want you to extinguish it. The same can be said if you blow it out and it flicks back on. Let the spirit complete its work, something important may be in the works that you do not want to interrupt. If you are uncomfortable ask the spirit to protect the candle or ask for permission and try to extinguish it again.

If the entire top of the prepared candle catches fire it means all the resources of the prepared candle are being used due to spiritual influences creating obstacles. Look to the other signs to see if the candle was successful. If the preparations do not collect along the glass as the candle burns, but remain pooled together, it means all the resources are needed and will burn at the end of the candle. The soot, flame, and glass should be read for the outcome.

If the flame burns high and calm and produces no soot you are in the presence of a larger entity or guardian spirit, most likely benevolent. The same can be said for high aggressive flames that flicker in large strokes . These tend to be darker spirits and deities, both are there to listen or aid you.

If the flame goes out while burning this means the spirits cannot help you and the answer you seek is already determined. This can also happen if you unexpectedly get the result before the candle is finished.

GLASS The glass retains the story of the working through the soot and preparation but the glass itself can tell you things about the spell.

If the glass cracks but does not break it means there was some type of opposition that was broken. It may have been sent to the spell to try to deflect it or it may have been encountered along the way. If it does not break or shatter then the spell is protected and was successfully defended.

However, if the glass breaks or shatters it means you are up against something larger than yourself. Malicious forces have either protected your target or have been attracted to your working and are trying to interfere. It can also indicate someone is casting against you and you are not spiritually protected or strong enough as what was thrown at you was larger than what you were sending out. Either way, do a stronger working and light another candle to try to combat it.

NOTE: This blog entry will be updated regularly with photos of the different candle burning results.

Witchy cleaners to keep ya house fresh with out harsh smells!

So the first things I made were white vinegar sprays, I made two kinds: -Rosemary and Sage -Thyme and Sage

Both have a 2:1 ratio of white vinegar and water and both have a peel and a half of lemon and about two table spoons of sea salt each. 

I cleansed the jars with water, then sage smoke, stuffed the herbs and lemon in, sprinkled in the salt, then poured hot water and vinegar in. Give em a shake and charge how you like as you go! I like to mentally say what I want from each item as I place them in the jar.

Let them sit for about a week then strain into a spray bottle and clean some shit. They’re also good for defunking carpets and throw pillows, just spray and let dry in the sun! 

The second thing I made was baking soda, salt, and lavender scrub with a lemon vinegar water spray! This one you don’t have to wait to use, just mix it up and go! I used:

- 2-3 cups baking soda ( I just dumped a bunch in eye baling how much I think I might need)  - 1-1.5 cups of table salt -  Half a cup of non-food grade lavender 

I set my intentions as I poured each ingredient in then mixed em up with a good shake. I cleaned my whole bathroom with this one jar and as you can see in the above picture, I still have enough left for touch ups or I can use it on my bedroom carpet. You just sprinkle the mix on the floor, let it sit for a while, then vacuum it up! 

And this shit works, here’s my dirty ass tub before:

I sprayed the vinegar down then shook the scrub all over, let sit, then using a scouring pad I cleaned it off and then rinsed it with hot water from the shower and BOOM:

LOOK AT THAT. 

I also poured some in the toilet, on the toilet brush, the sink, the floor, basically everywhere. When I was all done I burned some sage and have a beautiful clean bathroom without the smell of bleach in my nose! Yay!
