Personalized Witchcraft: Give Yourself Correspondences
Some people have animal spirits, fylgja, and other similar manifestations of their self, consciousness, spirit, and so on. But what about plants? Stones? Incense? Colors?
Give yourself your own correspondences. In a similar manner that certain spirits or deities are attracted to certain stones or get their energy from certain colors and methods, you too may have a correspondence for your self.
Experiment. See which stones or incense give you power, really draw you into yourself and help you know yourself. Maybe clear quartz helps you in any given situation, maybe amethyst helps you draw power from within, but what if citrine a type of quartz and pretty much (but still different from) amethyst i what helps you draw everything from yourself the best? Sure different stones can do different tasks, but what really helps you be you and draws your own power.
You Know Yourself Best. What stones, plants, items, and so on are you drawn to the most? What appeals to you the greatest? If you’re just naturally drawn to Jet and use it to store all your energy or use it in all your spells, maybe that’s your personal stone. Maybe you;re naturally drawn to Patchouli, instead of Rosemary or Sage because it works best for you in your personal practice.
What color defines your practice? Yourself? What you do?
Everyone has different correspondences for any given item. Some people use Blue for calm and serenity and balance, some people use it to absorb sadness, others use it to curse sadness and despair. Each color, like every stone and scent and other can be used, but what really speaks to you? Of course you can have more than one color, stone, some people even have multiple animal manifestations for different occasions. You can have more than one color to yourself, more than one stone, incense or oil, and other.
Spirits and Deities and other such entities have multiple correspondences. take Norse Loki, for example. He is called a Hawk, a Spider, a Snake, a Salmon, and more, and our personal associations with Loki, those of us who work with or worship him, may have different but often multiple scents, tastes, stones, and others we associate with him.
You do not have to work with a god or spirit, of course, but I use the example as a way to help understand. Spirits and Deities have multiple correspondences, and so may we.
What boosts your energy? What helps you define yourself? What helps you manifest your powers the greatest? Experiment as best you can. You know yourself best. Everyone has different opinions and ideas for what does what for them.
