I’ve spent much of my life wondering about whether magic is “real”, whether it “works”, whether it’s silly for me to invest my time and emotional energy into witchy stuff (even though at this point, I can’t not invest emotional energy into it; it makes me happy). I’ve spent the past eighteen years of my life trying to live magically and every few years I boxed up my witchy stuff in shame and told myself not to be so stupid. Because I was scared. Because trusting in that which I cannot see makes me feel vulnerable. But I could never bring myself to get rid of anything; particularly my crystals.
This week I’ve done two specific witchy things which made me think. I stuck a pin in the arm of my sofa after I lost my watch (thanks to @loveofakind who posted about this!), and I reblogged a money spell. Neither of which are things which take a lot of time and effort, but both of them made me think “eh, I really don’t think this’ll work but what’s the harm in trying”.
Straight after I put the pin in the sofa, I found my watch. The morning after I reblogged the money spell, I had a meeting with my new employer and they told me they’re giving me a relocation allowance for my move across country. I wasn’t expecting to get that because I asked weeks ago and they hadn’t responded so I thought it was a “we’re not gonna give you the money but we don’t want to have to tell you that” kind of situation.
Part of me is thinking, “Well, was it the witchy stuff? Would I have found the watch/got the money without it? I mean, the watch was literally right in front of me, and the money from my employer was already a possible option. Where’s the PROOF that there is a direct causal link between my witchy stuff and the money/finding my watch?”. I’m a researcher. I work in analysing evidence to form conclusions based on that evidence, and most of my job is about disentangling coincidence from causality. But just because I apply those rules to my job doesn’t mean I have to apply them to my life.
Witchcraft is a total mindshift for me (and I’m pretty sure I’m not alone in that). I’m finally learning to reconceptualise what I mean by evidence and when my actions, my body and my experiences are that evidence. Because ultimately, I don’t know that my actions led to those particular conclusions. What I do know is that I achieved what I wanted to achieve. I found my watch, and I can afford to move across country. And I don’t know whether my actions played a part in that, but I also don’t know what would have happened if I hadn’t reblogged that post or put a pin in my sofa.
And the biggest part in me learning to feel comfortable as a witch is realising that I’m not trusting something “out there” to achieve the goals I’m aiming for. I’m learning to trust myself.
You are in a meeting with God where everyone is discussing about how there is no good left in the world as hell is where everyone is going. As the person who keeps account of everyone’s karmas, you realise you haven’t been keeping record of the good being done in the world.
So one of the most often thing I get asked is “why do you hate this author” so I decided to make a post about all the bad occult and witchcraft authors out there and why I dislike them. Also remember folks, just because someone is published it does not mean they are intelligent, know a lot about the subject, or that it is a good book. Kim Kardashian has entire book of selfies for fucks sake.
D.J. Conway - Her book on Norse magick don’t even mention seiðr, its just neo-pagan and neo-wiccan rites with norse deities names in it. Conway is famous for her book on dragon magick, yet from what I can tell, she leaves out all the info of living traditions of dragons; people still worship dragons, dragons are still religious entities in parts of the world. I could go on and on about how her books are full of blatant misinfo and ignore the actual traditions she claims to write about. Besides the crap content of her books DJ Conway makes it very obvious that she has a deep hatred of men, she talks about trying out spells on shitty men, talks about her first marriage and how much of a “living hell” it was, and also how controlling her mother was. Do you really want to read that in a book about witchcraft?
Silver Ravenwolf- Do I have to even say anything about Ravenwolf? Like…do I really, y’all should know better by now
Raymond Buckland - I don’t even use his actual name when I refer to him. Cuckland created the Seax-Wica tradition because when his wife wanted a divorce he got upset and asked Gardner to kick her out of the Gardnian tradition, and when Gardner didn’t Cuckland got butt hurt and left. Cuckland makes claims that have absolutely no historical evidence and presents them as facts. Cuckland also spilled initiatory secrets of Wicca after he got butt hurt and left, uses the g-slur against the Romani people, is a very avid curse shamer.
Douglas Monroe: His books are FILLED with historical inaccuracies,for example he claims that druids are from Atlantis, mixes up deities very frequently. He claimed a pumpkin is a sacred tree (IT IS NOT). He has no botanical knowledge, yet tries to write about it, for example he has a mistletoe tincture, mistletoe is poisonous and he does not specify which type of mistletoe to use. To top it all of he is also misogynist.
Scott Cunningham - Many people love Cunningham, I already got hate in my ask box last time I bashed Cunningham. Cunningham presents a lot of outdated information such as incorrect correspondences for herbs and crystals, but he is dead, so he can not help that. But, Cunningham’s work also contributed substantially to the dilution and degradation of Craft tradition (both Wiccan and other) which lead to many problems in traditional initiatory practices of Wicca. There are also historical inaccuracy in his works, mostly because he is dead and now outdated. More (X)
Judika Illes - Has a whole shit ton Cultural appropriation in their books, particular towards hoodoo and African Diasporic Traditions. She is also an avid fan and support of Slither Rasinwood (silver raven wolf)
E.A. Koetting- He knows how to get a reader’s attention but the information presented in his books is absolute bullshit. He rips off Order of the Nine Angles. He clearly cares more about money than the quality of his books and work, his motto is literally “Become a living God”. Claims he is at war with Haitian Vodou Houngans on his YouTube channel. He is commonly referred to as “the silver Ravenwolf of the Left-Hand Path community”
Dante (Andrew Pike)- Calls himself a necromancer but is mainly a showman. Dances around graveyards next to Halloween props. A lot of historical misinformation, he also presents historically inaccurate practices.
E. A. Wallis Budge- good jumping off point for Kemetism but he is outdated with a lot of his translations and works, so it is now historically inaccurate.
Oberon Zell Ravenheart- If you are looking for a historically accurate practice, then do not read Ravenheart’s work. He formed the “Church of All Worlds” which is based on Robert Heinlein’s science fiction novel Stranger in a Strange Land. If you are into that pop-culture stuff then go ahead and look into that, but I thought it would important to know that before you jump into his work. He also claims to have raised unicorns and swam with mermaids…so keep that in mind as well.
Catherine Yronwode - Literally one of the worst people. Not only is she in charge of lucky mojo; (which any black rootworker will rant about as she is claims to be a “white rootworker” and has a “better then you” attitude toward any POC) she also who sells faulty spells and false ingredients, she is also a bully to LGBTQIA+ youth, and a rampant racist. You an find more drama with her here (X and X)
So, you are probably wondering who the hell would publish these authors and the answer is Llewellyn worldwide. Not all of these people are published by Llewellyn worldwide, but a majority of them are. This is why I frequently tell people to avoid books published by Llewellyn worldwide
Bree Landwalker has a similar post, some of the authors included here on this list are also in their post. You can find that post here

Beauty Spells by @belladonnaswitchblog
Since I’m on a plant kick today because I’ve decided to give my green thumb a try, I’m creating this master post relating to household plants. This is especially useful for witches like myself who don’t know the first thing about taking care of a plant inside the house besides watering and letting the darn thing get some sun! So, here we go:
Common TOXIC (as in you may not want to get these if you have kids or pets) household plants and their properties: *Aloe (toxic to pets, not toxic to humans) - wards against evil, protection from intruders and household accidents, brings good luck (also great for burns and good for your skin)
*Lillies, as well as the Peace Lily - love, comfort, harmony
*Ivy - protection, drive away negativity, promote fidelity and fertility
*Poinsetta - purity, celebration of winter holidays
*Snake plant (aka Mother-in-law’s Tongue) - long life, prosperity, beauty, health, strength, intelligence
*Dumb cane - for keeping secrets and starting gossip (not recommended for a magickal household)
*Arrowhead plant/vine - brings luck
*Myrtle - love, fertility, youth, peace, money
*Mistletoe - protection, love, hunting, fertility, health, exorcism
*Amaryllis - hidden or platonic love, friendship, retirement
*Gardenias - love, peace, healing, spirituality, psychic awareness
*Fig (aka weeping fig, fig tree, ficus, ficus tree) - divination, fertility, love, prosperity, guards against poverty and hunger if placed in kitchen, aids in restful sleep if placed in bedroom
Common NON-TOXIC household plants and their properties:
*African Violet - love, protection, promotes peace and spirituality
*Lavendar (can be toxic If your pets ingest a lot of it) - love, friendship, calm, protection
*Spider plant - protection, healing, absorb negativity while improving the energy and air quality of your home
*Bamboo - protection, luck, hex-breaking, wishes, protection, helps with depression
*Orchid - love, power, charisma
*Ferns (some ARE toxic, however the Boston Fern is not) - protection, luck, can aid in summoning rain
*Ti plant (can be toxic If your pets ingest a lot of it) - good luck, can be used to attract money if you place a coin under it
*Succulents (hens and chicks, burro/donkey tail, etc.) - love, abundance
*Palms - spirituality, good vibes, protection from unwanted spirits, ghosts, astral entities
*Cacti (non-toxic, yet can still be painful for kids and pets if they touch the spines) - protection, strengthens will, increases sexual stamina if juices are added to a love potion, guards against intruders if a cactus is placed in the North, East, South and Western points of your home
*Jasmine - love, money, prophetic dreams, seduction
*Other plants and veggies that can be grown indoors
***I’ve recieved a lot of feedback on this post stating that most of the NON-TOXIC plants I have listed are in fact toxic. I’ve made a few notes and changes, but let me just add that many plants can be toxic to animals if they eat a bunch of it. Vomiting, diarrhea, and depression are side effects that your pet may exhibit if they’ve eaten too much of a plant that can be considered non-toxic or mildly toxic. It’s always best to seek medical attention for your pet if they show these sympstoms, just in case. Otherwise, try to keep your plants out of reach of your pets, please!
Use your best judgement on which plants are best for your household. I’m not an expert, these are just some of the things I have gathered through research. If you’re afraid your pets are gonna eat your plants and get sick, then maybe you should get a different plant that is edible or otherwise in no way a danger to the animal.
You can refer to the ASPCA’s website on toxic and non-toxic plants if you’re unsure, but please keep in mind they do not mention the severity of the toxicity of the plants they list, so you can do a simple google search to find out for yourself, but AGAIN please do not replace any information you find on the internet to actual medical care! Consult with your veterinarian if your pet it sick!
Plant Spells:
*Magickal Soil Spell
*Spell to Speed the Growth of Your Plant
*Plant Growth Spell
*Plant Enchantment
Plant Sigils:
*”Pests will avoid my plants” by @sigilcrafter
*”These plants are free of pests” by @sigilathenaeum
*”My plants will survive and thrive” by @sigilathenaeum
Crystals Good for Plants:
*Moss Agate (aka the Gardener’s Stone) - prosperity, vitality, helps plants thrive and will assist plant growth, wearing moss agate while planting/gardening will increase your green thumb and give you energy, assosciated with nature spirits
*Green Jasper - aids in luxurious growth of your plants
*Green Calcite - healing, can be used to soothe when the environment is too loud, associated with Earth spirits of woods and meadows
*Clear Quartz - aids in growth and vitality, grounding, can also be placed in a vase of freshly cut flowers to help them last longer
*Rose Quartz - especially beneficial for roses as it maintains their bloom longer
*Smokey Quartz - keeps pests away
*Tourmaline - healing
*Amethyst - calms plants that are stressed
*Jet - can be worn to make plants flourish
*Green Fluorite - healing, especially good to use for a plant that has been injured or broken in some way

READ!! THIS IS MY LAST CHANCE!!!! (This is all I have!!)
My health is actually failing. I’m not being dramatic when I say I could die If I don’t get the medical help I need.
I suffer from chronic illnesses (a rare version of MTHFR HOMOZYGOUS, HIT, DEEP VEIN THROMBOSIS, AUTOIMMUNE DISEASE + more) and I am disabled and trans. I am jobless due to my illnesses and I am currently without any necessary resources to survive, be healthy, stable, or safe..
I have a rare blood clotting disease that causes me to be at the HIGHEST RISK possible to have a heart attack, aneurysm, or stroke. This disease has also resulted in multiple major surgeries, and countless other major procedures that have left me with debilitating chronic pain and other disabilities (limited use of my dominate arm, and even tasks like sweeping leave my arms in immense pain). I have two stints in my chest keeping my main vein open to my right arm so the blood can flow to it. And it still has trouble flowing back which causes swelling and excruciating pain in my arm. The main vein in my chest has been patched and dissected from a vein from my thigh because the veins in my right arm and chest are so damaged they weren’t able to save much. I had to get a rib removed because it was pinching my vein and causing clotting during which damaged a lot of muscles in my chest and shoulder causing even more chronic pain. They also wired my chest shut.
So I NEED to have access to good health care. I’m chronically ill with horrible and scary diseases. I’ve already almost died three times, and have been on my death bed twice.. I’m in and out of hospitals constantly, they don’t have the resources to help. I NEED HELP. I NEED TO LEAVE AND MOVE IN ORDER TO SURVIVE!!! Please fucking help me!! Boost my links, donate whatever! I’m grateful for anything !!
I DON’T WANT TO DIE I’ve been fighting for my life since I was 16. I’m taking my health seriously and using the little bit of energy that I have to get shit done.
I’m honestly only asking for the bare minimum of what I need to move, and for rent…
I’m trying to move to Colorado to escape (my abuser and stalker that I have a really traumatic history with. Violence and including assaults) I’m stuck in my hometown right now in northern MN. Where I’m at right now IS NOT safe for me and I NEED to leave..
My friend in Colorado has a place that I can move into ASAP, I just need first and last months rent. I have to move this month or she has to find a different roommate because of her own financial situation, so this is my ONE and only lucky chance!! I NEED to move to Colorado for access to better health care (to keep me alive), and for my own safety.. This is VITAL for my health (mentally and physically).
PLEASE DONATE OR BOOST MY LINKS!!!
NOW IS THE TIME TO SHOW YOUR SUPPORT AND BE AN ALLY !! ALSO PLEASE READ AND SHARE MY STORY/LINKS!! REPOST, & REBLOG!! Copy and paste my links & story & share on ALL your social media’s (twitter, Facebook, tumblr and Instagram!!!!) it helps me so much !

Ayurveda's Wisdom: Harmonizing the Human Body with its Environment
Ayurveda's outlook is as holistic as it gets. It sees the human body as intricately linked to its surroundings. Any shifts in the environment reflect in our physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual well-being.
More Than Skin Deep: Treating the Source, Not Just the Symptoms
Unlike conventional medicine's focus on symptom suppression, Ayurvedic treatments are all about targeting the root cause. This system aims for a perfect symphony between mind, body, and soul, paving the way for a vibrant and ailment-free life.
Balancing Act: Herbal Remedies and Lifestyle for Optimal Energy
Ayurvedic therapy marries herbs and lifestyle shifts to balance the three key body energies—Vata, Pitta, and Kapha. These doshas play differently in everyone, and the predominant one defines your unique constitution or Prakriti. Ayurveda believes that diseases stem from vitiated doshas, often triggered by external and internal factors like diet and physical activity.
Pulse and More: Naadi Pariksha and Ashtavidha Pariksha
Two key diagnostic tools in Ayurveda: Naadi Pariksha (pulse checking) and Ashtavidha Pariksha (in-depth examination). Skilled practitioners decode these to understand your physiological and psychological makeup, revealing dosha imbalances.
Tailored Treatment: Symptomology, Dominant Dosha, and More
Your Ayurvedic practitioner crafts a unique plan—factoring in your symptoms, dominant dosha, and constitution. The prescription blends herbal remedies, dietary tweaks, exercises, and lifestyle shifts. And here's the truth: Ayurveda can complement modern medicine when your doctor gives the nod.
A Deeper Dive into Ayurvedic Therapies
Discover some captivating Ayurvedic treatments that play in harmony with your doshas, reviving your mind, body, and soul's equilibrium.
From Crown to Toes: Abhyanga's Stress-Melting Strokes
Abhyanga is the full-body hug you need. Medicated oil, warm and gentle strokes—this self-administered massage says goodbye to stress, spurs circulation, and eases inflammation. Different herbs, different results.
Trouble in Your Lower Back? Enter Kati Vasti
For lumbar blues, there's Kati Vasti. Think a doughy well holding warm oil on your lower back. The result? A gentle, soothing treat for those tender areas.
Let's Sweat It: The Elakizhi Induced Glow
Perspiration is golden, and Elakizhi coaxes it out with herb-stuffed muslin and warm oil. Say adieu to stress, soreness, and body aches.
Rice and Milk for Aching Muscles: Njavara Kizhi
Ayurveda goes grainy with Njavara Kizhi. Cooked rice, milk, and herbal pouches caress your muscles, bringing relief to your aches and strains.
Toxin Tryst: Panchakarma's Ancient Detox Ritual
Panchakarma is detox's A-lister. Over a week, it revs up your body's self-cleansing machinery. Five therapies, one goal: a toxin-free, vibrant you.
Varicose veins meet their match in Ayurveda. A blend of herbs and oils could be your ticket to improved vein health.
Psoriasis's no match for Ayurveda's herbal pastes and skilled hands. A natural approach to taming the itchy, flaky beast.
Heated oil meets your forehead in Shirodhara. This 60-90-minute serenade relieves stress, anxiety, and headaches. Let your cares drift away.
Decoding Ayurvedic Healing: Ancient Wisdom at Work
Ayurveda? It's 'knowledge of life.' With its 3,000-year history, it's your holistic roadmap. Cleanse, diet, herbs, massage, meditation—these are your keys to mastering balance and vitality.
Patience Pays: The Slow-and-Steady Success of Ayurveda
Ayurvedic therapies don't snap their fingers for instant fixes. They're about sustainable solutions. Dosha harmony, natural healing, resilience building—it takes time.
Ayurveda's Bounty: From Weight to Immunity, It Has You Covered
Ayurveda isn't just ancient—it's wise. From weight balance to stress relief, radiant skin to strong immunity, Ayurveda brings ancient goodness to modern lives.
Ayurveda's Dance of Harmony: Mind, Body, and Soul in Sync
Ayurveda is your holistic partner, orchestrating your doshas' melody for a harmonious existence. Modern medicine plays its part, too, but with your doctor's nod, these two systems can unite for your well-being.
Remember, Ayurveda isn't just a quick fix—it's a journey to your best self.
