Lavender Water

I got the idea to make this water a while ago when I was shopping around at my local Botanica where they had a lovely but quite expensive Aqua de Lavender. If you already have lavender, OR know where to get it at a decent price this can cost you around 7 bucks, Compared to like 15.

The uses for Waters are literally endless but I’m making my Lavender Water to help with Anxiety, For cleansing Baths, Cleansing air mist, and cleansing Spray. Notice a theme here? 

To make yours you will need 3 things. 

Lavender Buds

100 proof Vodka, Or White Vinegar (I used vinegar here)

A glass Container 

To get your Lavender the most fragrant give it a nice grind in a mortar and pestle, Or bowl. Add the lavender to your bottled liquid and shake it the hell up. Thats it.

Within an hour the color will deepen into a nice purple, ruby tint.

You can strain the lavender once it has reached your desire scent / color but I like to keep mine in.

Enjoy!

Why I have been so absent?

The reason why I have been so absent is I am in the middle of moving!! Its crazy exciting, crazy hard, and hella hectic! I will be becoming more active over the next few days hopefully.  Sorry I haven’t responded to any messages.  I actually havent logged on here, any reblogs or likes have been made by my boyfriend.  But I’m logged on now :)

Tips for writing spells:

If you want to keep something close, bury it in your back yard. If you want to attract something, bury it under the front door step If you want to destroy its influence, burn it. If you want it to move away and sink, throw it in running water If you want to disperse it to a distance, throw it into a crossroads If you want to fix its influence, inter it in a five-spot pattern If you want it to work by means of spirits, bury it in a graveyard If you want to hide its point of origin, conceal it in a tree If you want it to work in secret, give it in food or drink If you want it to work by stealth, hide it in clothing or on objects If you want its influence to begin or strengthen, throw it East If you want its influence to end or weaken, throw it West If you want its influence to rise and fall cyclicly, float it in a tidal estuary

Domestic Garden Witch: When Eggshells Grow

So maybe you’re a college witch with limited space and money, limited to the one window in your dorm. Or, maybe you’re a witch without extensive backyard space who wants to start up a magical garden. Perhaps you’re a kitchen witch who wants the freshest herbs right at her fingertips.

For many witches, having a garden seems to be a bit of a no-brainer. After all, plants and magic go hand-in-hand. Plus, when thinking of a witch, it’s hard not to think of a cottage in the woods with a little vegetable garden out front. Unfortunately for the majority of us, our cottage in the woods is a tiny flat, and our garden out front is a windowsill with limited space.

This is when it comes time to embrace your craftiness and bring your garden indoors! Not only does it place your garden in a convenient location, it also allows you to freshen the air, recycle what would otherwise harm the earth, and embrace your witchy green thumb!

Eggshells for the Garden Witch

The kitchen witch has eggshells piling up on the counter, dried and ready to be ground up for use in protection powders. The garden witch looks at these shells and thinks, “Oh! Fertilizer!”

But if you’re limited in space and have to keep your garden limited to your windowsill, you may find yourself looking at those eggshells and saying “Oh! New pottery!” Not only is creating an eggshell planter a very green practice, but it’s also creative and makes transplanting much easier if you end up having a larger garden later on!

The Container…

Simple enough, you just need mostly intact eggshells. In the picture above, the eggshells are kept in the carton, but I’ve seen eggshells set up decoratively, such as with this picture:

The core of this post is clearly the eggshells, but you can arrange them in whatever way saves space or is aesthetically pleasing!

Carefully fill the emptied eggshell with potting soil. Make an indent in the soil with your finger, and carefully add your seedling before adding a final layer of soil and watering. If you plan on keeping the plants in the eggshells instead of transplanting, you could also carefully poke holes in the bottom of the eggshells so that your plants don’t get over-watered.

How Can I Witch This?

Eggshells alone are extremely protective, and providing your plants with that energy is beneficial. Around Ostara, use died eggshells! Not only will the shells have protective energy, but you’ll be able to use color correspondences and whatever symbols you used for the rite.

Draw symbols or runes of growth, protection, and strength on the shells in order to encourage your plant’s growth!

Bonus points is if you grow protective herbs in the eggshells!

May your harvests always be fruitful! Blessed Be! )O(

i'll be upfront about this. i miss your old hair.

Well thank you for your honesty and also it's just a color change, it's back to curly I can't straighten it. Hope you are having a nice day!!
