“i feel like i have no purpose” You are not a fixed entity. You do not have one grand, singular, constant purpose. As long as you have genuine intent behind your actions, everything you do serves a purpose. As long as you are truly present, you notice that everything contributes to a greater whole. You do not need to dedicate yourself endlessly to one practice to achieve a purpose; allow yourself to oscillate freely between them all. Experiment. You are not one dimensional: treat yourself as such.
Go outside and see the beautiful moon while you do a quick spell for your positive intentions for this next month!
Remember you can add your own spin to spells to make them more unique to you and what you want to manifest.
TUMBLED
Crystals that have been smoothed or polished from their raw form are usually classified as tumbled stones. They have not been carved into any specific form, but are not jagged to the touch. These crystals are usually more affordable and are good for basic crystal use, including grids, meditation, affirmations, altar work, feng shui or more.
ABUNDANCE
Crystals in an Abundance formation are made up of an elongated quartz crystal with smaller crystals clustered around its base. This is a great stone to attract abundance to your life (hence its name) and is great for acting as a conduit to your wealth and business stones.
NATURAL POINT
Natural points are not necessarily long crystals in a wand-like formation. They are any part of a faceted crystal with a point that has formed naturally, and has not been carved to perfection. These types of stones must be used with caution as the point draws energy to the body (when pointed toward a person) or it draws energy away from the body (when pointed away from the body). These properties make it a great tool for cleansing and healing work.
PHANTOM
The Phantom formation is slightly difficult to find. These crystals have a hazy image within them, although most of the crystal is particularly transclucent. This phantom of ghost within the crystal is said to carry a vast array of information for the past, making it a powerful tool for past-like work and healing. Depending on the crystal that the phantom is found within, additional properties will apply. However, any Phantom formation will be a powerful stone to shake out your skeletons and pave a healthy path for growth.
GENERATOR
A Generator will have six facets (of equal or unequal proportions) that meet into one point. It gets its name for its ability to generate amplified energy, boosting the power of other stones, or the stone it is made of. This type of formation is also very powerful for charging other stones.
GEODE
These stones are elusive because they appear ordinary from the outside. However, when they are opened or broken they reveal a hollow cave with crystals sparkling within. Because of their contained form, geodes have the ability to hold energy within and soften it, allowing it to naturally flow out and disperse evenly. These formations are great for protection or for assisting with healing abusive habits such as alcoholism, drug abuse, sex addiction, shopping addiction, and abusive internal monologues.
RAW
Raw stones are in their natural form and have not been smoothed, polished or altered. Though they are more fragile and can break more easily than other formations, many prefer the look of these stones as they would appear raw in their natural habitat. Like tumbled stones, raw stones are great for all spiritual work and are often quite affordable.
PYRAMID
Pyramids are stones that have been shaped into a point with four equal faceted sides and a square base. These formations are great for warding off negative vibrations or removing blocks within the chakra system. This shape is also a great choice to use in affirmation and manifestation work. The properties of the crystal are amplified in this formation. It is a good choice for healers.
SPHERE
The circle emits energy evenly from all angles, and the Sphere formation is no different. These are powerful formations and are often used in scrying as a tool to peer into the past and future. Because the shape is even from every possible angle, it is believed that light, energy and time pass through it with no rules or hindrances, hence their scrying abilities. They often have flaws or occlusions within them which help with the scrying process, though they can be quite expensive depending on their size.
SQUARE
This formation works well with grounding energies and intentions since its energy is contained and enhanced evenly within the stone. It acts as a foundation to meditation practices and has the ability to transmute negative energy into positive energy. They’re stacking ability makes them great tools for mindfulness and concentration, especially if you’re doing detailed work.
Not to be confused with volcanic salt/Himalayan black salt/kala namak. Black salt has strong protective properties, especially when combined with other protective/uncrossing herbs (herbs meant to undo a curse or hex). It’s used to absorb negative energy, create wards, and undo curses. It’s also good for banishing and binding. Here’s my recipe:
What you’ll need:
Cleansing items, such as smoke, bells, spray, whichever you personally use.
Sea Salt
Charcoal Disk (or charcoal powder)
Black Candle
Rosemary
Garlic Powder
Chili Powder
Crushed Red Pepper Flakes
Paprika
Black Pepper
Black Candle
Bowl
Mortar & Pestle
Black stones/crystals
Any additional protective items you may have. (Here I gathered dried red peppers, dried chili peppers, lemon, sage, and ashed from a Litha bonfire.) These items are for You to draw some extra energy from, and won’t be directly added to the salt.
Frankincense and/or Dragon’s Blood incense.
Instructions:
First, cleanse your space using whatever best works for you.
After cleansing, start your frankincense and/or dragon’s blood incense, this will be going for the duration of the spell.
Light your black candle.
Gather your supplies as seen in the picture.
As always, make sure your intention is strong, and continuously draw from it. Return to your intent no matter how often your mind wanders (which it will, that’s ok).
In a bowl, mix the salt with the herbs first.
Remember your other protective items are there for you to use. If needed, refocus on their protective energies and draw from that.
Use a mortar and pestle to crush the charcoal disk separately. This takes a lot of physical energy, and it is very messy. If you prefer to use charcoal powder, that’s ok, though charcoal disks will be cheaper. I like charcoal disks because I feel more energetically involved in/connected to the process.
Mixing counterclockwise, mix the very finely crushed charcoal into the salt. Mix. Use as many charcoal disks needed to get to the level of darkness you want.
Mind wandering? Remember your intent! Refocus!
When you’re done, transfer the black salt into a jar and set the crystals around it in a circle. Let it continue to build and charge this way, until you feel it is ready. If you’re not sure, it can also be until the candle or incense goes out.
Done! Sprinkle this around the parameter of your wards, such as along doorways and windows. It can also be used during unhexing/curse breaking spells, general protection spells, banishing, and binding.
This is NOT FOR CONSUMPTION.
Even if you used edible activated charcoal, know that 1. charcoal interacts with many medications by basically absorbing them and rendering them useless, including birth control, diabetes medications, cancer drugs, and more. and 2. I’m not sure this would taste great?

🔥🔥Firey Wall of Protection Oil🔥🔥 . . This is a little how to I’m sharing with you!! I made this pretty puppy on my own, and let me tell you this is POTENT!! I made it myself and can contest this shits awesome. Here’s how to make it! You’ll need: - jar - black salt - whole chilie peppers - cayenne powder - paprika - Palo Santo stick - cloves - cinnamon sticks - cinnamon powder - ginger powder - red pepper seeds - sea salt/pink Himalayan sea salt - bay leaves - oil (be it olive, cooking, almond, what have you) - black candle - sandlewood incense . Light your incense, make sure you’re grounded, and your mind is focused for the task at hand. Please know this will take up a lot of your energy. Make your base with black salt and all powdered ingredients. It’s important that this have a strong foundation with hella protection properties so nothing can find a way through the barrier. Follow your gut and add each ingredient according to your intuition. As you add each item, really focus on this oils intent. You want it strong, powerful, Firey, and most importantly impenetrable. You want to make sure all your loopholes are tied, that there’s no room for error. Once everything is added, go ahead and pour your oil in, saying an incantation of your choice. As you do, say out loud exactly what you want this oil to do. Charge it, give it a job, leaving out no detail. Tell it what it protects you and your family from. Hold it, charge it, kiss it–until it feels right. Afterwards, set the jar in front of the black candle and light it, letting the spell charge and burn. DO NOT let the candle burn out, and DO NOT burn it out early. Let it go down and out all on it’s own. Now here’s where your gut comes in. When the spell is over, I sat my bottle on my windowsill and let it charge in the sunlight for 30 consecutive days. You can write a sigil underneath it to add an additional charge, but the suns energy gives it the burn you want. You don’t have to do it for 30 days, but for me and this oil, it’s not as effective if it’s charged in the sun for less. Once the 30 days are up, use it at your own will. Pour it in a small vial and wear it as a necklace (that’s what I did.) Anoint your doorways, windows, threshold, doorstep, friends, your car, yourself, anything. It’s potent and powerful!!

Here’s why:
The Ascendant does not just show “how people see you.”
The Ascendant signifies how you’ve entered into the world. It represents your birth, your first breath, and your first, strongest view of the world.
The 1st House rules over the head. The Ascendant can not only have a say on your facial appearance, but the overall vibe of your appearance as a whole.
The Ascendant serves as a spreadsheet for the placement of your planets. Without the Ascendant, you will not know which Houses your planets are in.
The Ascendant also sets the order of the signs ruling the Houses. The signs are in order on your natal chart, and the fact that the order can’t be changed shows that the Ascendant has a strong effect on the rest of your Houses. This implies that the rest of the Houses are connected in some way to the Ascendant.
The Ascendant is often accepted in many aspect patterns due to its important and visible effects.
The Ascendant is often used as a defense mechanism against the world as a way to keep oneself safe by covering the sign ruled by the 12th House. The defensiveness/covering of the Ascendant goes with the archetypal notion that Aries, the sign naturally ruling the 1st House is always defensive and on-guard from outside forces.
The Ascendant is often used to find one’s karmic lessons and directions in addition to the North and South Node.
The Ascendant is the start of the natal chart and is arguably one of the most important angles in the natal chart.
Beltane Celebration
Hi lovely ones! We know it’s super late but we have been working hard on new surprises you will like a lot! We promise! But for now, here’s the Beltane Spell Celebration of this month.
You will need previous Moon Water already made and you will pour it carefully inside a clear vase of your choice. After this step is done, light up the white candle and think of the elements in front of you. Make a silent wish.
Now place the flowers inside the vase while making a blessing to someone or something for each flower you put. Once it’s all done, please take a moment to think about the meaning of this celebration time. Of How it’s related to have fun, fertility, abundance, romance, celebration and protection.
If you are ok with it, you can also offer these to the faeries around your home and expect magical energies through all the month.
