I think sometimes people forget that witchcraft isn't strictly religious. You can practice and not be wiccan, you can practice and be atheist, you can practice and be christian, witchcraft is not inherently tied tonone religion
slightly adapted from samra haksever, author of mama moon’s book of magic, but is mostly the same. includes quotes from her book in the steps for how to create the jar
not my gif
this spell jar is best crafted on a Sunday, when you can channel the energy of the day, and look back on your achievements of the past week.
✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿ ✿
7 small strips of paper
a pen
a mason jar, or a jar of similar size
2-3 cinnamon sticks
a pinch of patchouli, but i used rosemary
a magnet or lodestone crystal
orange or white wax (optional)
the cinnamon brings your happiness blessings, and the magnet and patchouli draw many more of these good things to you.

“on each piece of paper, write down something that has made you happy over the past week; this is the time to celebrate anything and everything, from seeing a cute dog in the park and treating yourself to a cup of coffee on your commute, to taking an afternoon nap.
“fold the papers up, put them in the jar with the cinnamon sticks, patchouli/rosemary and magnet, then place the jar on a windowsill that gets plenty of sunlight.”
“optional, seal with orange or white wax. if you decide not to seal the jar, add to it as and when, or even try to make it a Sunday ritual.”

What is it?
Tasseography is divination by tea or coffee. Unlike tarot, which can also be used for meditation, this ancient method, also called tasseomancy, is best reserved for fortunetelling.
How does it work?
After a teacup or a coffee mug has been emptied, the remaining tea leaves or coffee grounds form images. Much like in scrying, these patterns are interpreted.
What do I need?
If you opt for tea, use loose tea. Teabags will not work, as it is the leaves that will form patterns.
If you choose coffee instead, acquire Turkish coffee. It leaves a thick sediment which can be richly interpreted. A saucer is mandatory.
How is it performed?
The drink has no occult powers. Neither does the cup that holds it. They are merely messengers. For the message itself, invoke your higher power.
Take a deep breath. Drink the liquid while thinking about your query. Do it in one go, but slowly, so that the question can be asked intently.
Place the cup to your chest, close to where your heart is. Take another deep breath. This is you allowing the image to truly match your intent.
Seek and you shall find.
If you drank tea, search the leaves at the bottom of the cup.
If you drank coffee, first turn the cup upside down onto the saucer. Take another deep breath, then put it back up once you are finished. Search both the cup and the saucer for images.
If you have the gift of sight or simply a strong intuition, you should know what the images mean. Like in dreams, the symbols you find will be highly subjective.
To illustrate, if you asked, “Will my wife and I stay together?” and you saw the shape of a heart broken in the middle, then “No” is your answer.
Additionally, as this method of divination is usually passed down from mother to daughter, each reader knows a certain list of symbols by heart. Something unique to her or him.
To perform tasseography without access to such knowledge, know that the Lenormand system evolved from it. Its cards contain images that are often formed by tea leaves and coffee grounds. So if you read Lenormand, interpret the images you see using the cards’ meanings. If you are unfamiliar with it, here are sample interpretations:

An important message is coming.

Luck will soon find you.

Travel is on the horizon.

Hi friends,
I woke up this morning with a mere 4 dollars in my bank account. I got hit with all my bills at once and have more bills starting next week. I’m currently in between jobs, I’ve been doing food delivery when I can but, due to me being disabled that’s not too often.
I’m not a person to ask for “handouts” but now is one of those moment where I unfortunately need to. Last month I couldn’t make rent, and if I’m late another month I could be looking at eviction. The last few months have been difficult to work due to my pain, so money has been extremely tight, but I never thought I’d be here.
If you would like to help it’s greatly appreciated, even just reblogging this to others is also greatly appreciated. I have a few ways to help if you would like:

Etsy Shop:
I may also end up opening art commissions in a way to help earn money, so if you’re interested in that let me know! Check out my art instagram @/artbysmallplum (without slash) to see my work!
Thank you if you took the time to read this and interact with it 💛
