Different Crystal Shapes And How To Use Them

🌙Simple Everyday Things You Can Do For Protection

Source | https://www.instagram.com/mariathearcane/

What are some simple things that you do that you think would help another witch?

🌙My list of daily or easy practices requires little to no prep-work

•Use a protection plant ally like a witch's burr, cloves, thorns, motherwort, black pepper, garlic, or onion. Close your eyes and place your plant ally in your hands. Ask the spirit of the plant if they will offer you protection to see you through the day. Carry it with you.

•Alternatively, you can also use crystals. My go to combo is black tourmaline and red jasper!

•Use a protection archetype tarot card like the Nine of Wands. Nine of Wands, for myself, symbolizes boundaries and protection when it comes to our growth/life path. Place it on your altar with intention since it is a portal to our intentions, our guides, and the liminal, or carry on your person.

•Smoke cleanse the thresholds in your home, yourself, and your loved ones. I personally like rosemary and lavender for this purpose.

•As you leave an offering for your guides/ancestors/deities during your daily conversation with them ask them for their help when it comes to protection.

•Write the word protection or a symbol of protection on a black candle with intention and light.

Ostara ～ Wheel of the Year Potion ✧

°˖✧ Here spring, make me grow make me soar ✧˖°

Blessed and blooming Ostara for everyone!!

This little ritual can be performed solo or with your coven and you can use different elements depending on your specific desires.

This Ostara also comes with a beautiful Full Moon (Worm Moon) and is the perfect moment to start your witchy gardens.

Also if you would like to dispose of the eggs after a while, you can just crush them and put them back in the earth where they can keep on bringing you good vibes <3

hate all the concepts of “to be a good witch/pagan you have to do ____ with your practice”. your practice should be personal to you, specific to you and what works for you. you do not need all the fancy supplies, you do not have to meditate, you do not have to worship any deities, etc.

you do not have to do anything that does not naturally fit into your practice in order to be a good witch/pagan.

Willow’s Beginner’s Guide to Witchcraft: Where to Begin?

Hello my dears, especially all of you young new enthusiastic witches who are curious about the world of witchcraft and the use of mysticism in your life. Witchcraft is very rewarding and is practiced worldwide for a variety of reasons. I, too, was once a curious and honestly confused young witch trying to figure out where to start and how I should begin my journey. This is why I am creating this new series of guides for all of you who have found yourselves in that boat. I truly hope that these will help you greatly!

With these guides, I will be posting all sorts of information for you including vocabulary, links, resources, correspondences, exercises to practice, examples and even in some cases “homework” for you to give a try. So feel free to take notes or save these posts to your blogs for easy access. Feel free to message me or send me asks as well if you have any questions on the topics I cover. Also, to show your appreciation for these free lessons you can buy me a coffee at my Ko-fi Page as a tip, but this is not required at all.

What is a witch?

Let’s start with something simple but important for all beginners to understand. What actually is a witch? A witch is an individual who uses magick, pretty simple. They do NOT have to be female or born “into it” or Wiccan. A witch is a person who uses and practices witchcraft and Magick.

What is magick?

Magick is making an effort through energy of oneself or other types of energies to change aspects of one’s life. These changes can vary depending on the type of spells, rituals and practices you are using. The reason a “k” is used at the end of magick is simply to separate it from the word magic which is often associated with illusions and parlor tricks. Though some do still call it “magic” so it is really out of preference.

all i want is to have one of those ghibli moments where the protag is just lying in a breezy field with wildflowers and big puffy clouds overhead. that’s the goal here.

Some Sigil Basics

Ok so let me just start by saying this is some VERY beginner stuff that a close witchy friend gave me and I figured I would put it here to share with the world!

Begin with a simple phrase

I’m going to use the phrase “I am safe and protected” because it is a little more complex

Take out all the vowels

In the instance of this phrase we are then left with “m sf nd prtctd”

Take out duplicate letters

That will leave us with “m sf nd prtc”

Match the alphabet to letters…

There is no other way to describe this than with a picture…

Match the letters to numbers

So “msfndprtc” = 416547923

Match the numbers together with lines on your circle

So another picture is… my only form of help!

Your sigil is finished!!!

So this is what mine looked like when I was totally done adding my flourish to it!

So this is… how it’s done? I know I probably did a TERRIBLE job at explaining this but I am willing to help anyone who has any questions!!!
