My Favorite Simple Wards To Guard The Home

'Revenge is bad' to YOU. i love when a character destroys everyone who wronged them. i love when they get to bite and maim and tear and rip and scratch and kill. Sorry ur catholic about it but i'm different

Best places to preform spells or rituals

Being a witch and practicing witchcraft can be so great but where are the best places to preform spells and rituals?

• graveyards - where you can honour the dead and the ancestors

• a forest - some quiet time out in nature can enhance spells and your connection to the earth

• the bathtub - this can be the most relaxing state of mind when you are alone with the door locked. Light some candles and get casting just be sure to be safe around the water!

• outside in the moonlight - this is a place where your magick will get a lot of power! Especially moon spells

• in your room or sacred place in your home - this may seem “boring” but it can be one of the most powerful places considering you are near home and all your tools, it makes lots of people feel calm and at ease

Happy enchanting 🌙✨

How I Set Up My Alter Space

Your alter should be as unique and personal as you are. It’s a reflection of your space and your connection to your spirits. It should have anything on there that you feel connected to and stirs up magic inside yourself. So even though this is how I set up my alter there aren’t really any ‘rules’. Your alter can be as formal or informal as you like.

Crystals are one of the main things I keep on my alter. A lot of my crystals are small and I usually rotate them out depending on my mood or what I want to influence me or a situation I’m in. Currently I have a bunch of moonstones on there from the Full Moon the other day. I used them during my reading so I wanted to keep that energy present. 

I have a little bit of sage in a abalone shell left over from prior cleansing work. I keep that up on the alter too. I never toss out the soot from the burned incense just in case I need black salt for later. (I have heard about the shortage of sage so this is my last bit. I think in future I’ll switch up what I’m burning maybe Frankincense next time?) 

Sometimes I don’t have candles up there but I do like them for a fire element representation. My current obsession are white votives in clear glass holders I picked up from the dollar store. I like them because I can purchase so many. Next time I think I’ll grab some pillars and have the back of the alter lined with different sized candles.

I also use seashells for my alter, mostly for a water representation. I always like to have elemental displays just for balance. The other day I swapped out the shells for a jar of moon water though. 

Other things I have on my alter are things that represent my ancestors, small animal bones (naturally collected), and eggshells. Some of my other favorites to put on my alter are seeds, salt, flowers or herbs, coins, oils, sticks or rocks or anything that feels like it just goes there and adds it’s energy to that space.

✨Protection and fortune jar✨

My small jar by the window sill needed a refreshing. So I tried something a bit new and hoped it will help me! You can make it as well!

You’ll need:

Salt (Protection)

Bay leaf (Employment, wisdom)

Cinnamon (Success, prosperity)

Cloves (wealth, protection)

Cedar (protection, money)

Chamomille (money)

Amethyst (protection)

A jar, container, or sachet

Start by pouring the salt in your container then layout all your other herbs and crystals into the container, close the lid and you have your spell! You can place it anywhere you want to protect your fortune or attract it.

Deities and their Tarot Cards (Long Post)

I’ve heard of Pagans being contacted by their gods via certain Tarot Cards, so I wanted to do a deep dive and outline which Cards are associated with which Gods. Hopefully this can help you tell which God is reaching out to you :)

Simple Home Wards

For outside:

Drive sturdy sticks into the corners of your property to bolster those areas and strengthen wards. It adds firm definition to where you are warding. Using sticks from your property is a great way to connect everything on your land

Hammer three nails in the ground near your front door to act as a potent warning to spirits below.

Use solar powered lights to line your path to the door to keep it feeling bright, warm, and inhabited. Keep a small light on your keys and it will help to keep you from getting lost. Make sure to program all lights and keychain lights at the same time to sync them together.

Enchant wreaths to draw in abundance and repel misfortune and negative entities.

Choose a striking door knocker to act as a guardian against thieves and predators.

Plant hardy flowers and bushes that are native to/thrive in your area around all entrances and exits. Find out what the bees in your region like (if possible)!

Use windchimes to ward off entities looking for stagnant places. Sound and motion tend to clear away that kind of energy.

Draw (or use energy instead of a drawing utensil) a sigil on the outer walls of your home, especially on pillars and doorframes. You can do this before your home is completely built if you are in that process!

Draw similar sigils and/or statements on your driveway in the summer to bake them into your land and charge them. You can use water in a squeeze bottle to do this as well, and it will fade away immediately if your area is hot.

During the winter, you can also use water to cut through the snow or to freeze onto your property. Be careful, of course, and bear in mind where you or your pets may walk.

Use potted flowers to hide non-deteriorating crystals and wards. Put permanent wards inside the pots before planting.

For inside:

Enchant and place coins or other small tokens above every doorway and in every windowsill of your home to draw in wealth and repel malevolent forces. Bobby pins, dimes, toothpicks. It all works, but I recommend charging them every month or so.

Hang tapestries or other kinds of wall decor to break up stretches of potentially stagnant spaces. Clocks move and typically have a sound, which have always served me well in cleansing and keeping up with the flow of energy.

Salt lamps are actually quite useful. They are very dangerous for animals and small children, though. If you're good with the lamps being safe, they are excellent at cleansing, warming up, and protecting an area.

Rugs can be used to make wards all ob their own. You can create a design on the underside if you want, or just use energy to enchant it.

Wipe vents down with some sort of ritually clean and positively charged solution. Gem elixir, moon water, herbal tincture, etc.

Enchant fixtures already setup to protect you and your family. Smoke detectors, carbon monoxide detectors, security systems, locks, etc. Use energy opposed to physical materials for most of these to protect their functionality.

Ward your attic. Birds get in, squirrels get in, entities and energies get in.

If you have a chimney, ward the fireplace or surrounding objects. Grates and screens are awesome for this.

The Goddesses Holy Water

This is a little method my mentor passed down to me that I love. I like to do this to my bathwater before bathing, and to my moon water/storm water that i collect. 

You will need:

Water

Salt

   Place a finger in the water and stir counterclockwise. Visualize your energy shooting into the water and engulfing any negative energy and filling it with light. Say “I exorcise thee, Oh creature of water, of all negativity both seen and unseen, & bless thee in the name of the divine Goddess.”

   Place a finger in the salt and stir counterclockwise. Visualize your energy penetrating the salts and engulfing the negative dark energy, filling it with light. Say “I exorcise thee, Oh creature of salt, of all negativity both seen and unseen, & Bless thee in the name of the divine Goddess.”

   Drop three pinches of salt into the water, stir clockwise with your finger and say “I cleanse & Consecrate this water in the name of the divine Goddess, may this liquid now enhance and purify all that it touches, So mote it be.”
