a spell to ease tension, heal low energies, uplift your mood, and invoke peace.

three candles; one blue, pink, and white

two small-medium sized shells (calico scallop shells, small conch-like shells, or muscle shells work great)

rose infused moon water

dried lavender, rosemary, and thyme

mortar and pestle

fresh petals from one pink rose

charcoal disk

3 drops eucalyptus essential oil

patchouli incense

matches

optional; a sigil for your personal intent (healing, self love, confidence, empowerment, growth, etc)

- sit somewhere with good light, preferably sunlight of course or outside and have your resources laid in front of you how you desire.

- start by lighting your candles with match. take both of your shells, and place them on an even surface, carefully filling them with the rose infused moon water.

- next, in a mortar and pestle begin to grind your dried herbs together gently, once combined and roughly uniform transfer into a small bed of your fresh pink rose petals, then lay that on top of your charcoal disk, top it with the eucalyptus oil and begin to burn, following up by lighting your patchouli incense alongside it.

- if you choose to include a sigil, write it now onto any piece of paper and place it on top to burn as well. once done, sip the water in your shells (if your version is edible, if not then pour it over your hands or water plants with it).

cleanse your house thoroughly

banish any unwanted energies

put some time into making solid wards

rearrange/cleanse your altar space and tools

take inventory of your supplies

make new batches of sun and moon waters (and any salts, tinctures, etc. you like to keep on hand)

start a dream journal now that you have the time

find a witchy article or book on somewhere like JSTOR and learn something new (and tell other witches about it)

try kitchen witchcraft if you haven’t already

create a new sigil or charm to display in your house

bless or add a glamor to an item in your home (ex. adding a glamour to a centerpiece so the food always looks good or to the welcome mat so people don’t notice the messes so much)

send a blessing to those who are helping (and donations, if you can)

or perhaps jinx, hex, curse, or bind those doing harm

set aside time each day to meditate– it’s the perfect time to start such a habit!

leave an offering to or commune with a spirit or deity you have not in a while due to time constraints

try a type of magic you are interested in, but struggle with

practice with your divination tools to get better at them

update your grimoire with things you’ve been meaning to write down

make a crystal grid of your own

make your own pendulum and board

make your own oracle deck

using the items you already have, make a new powder, oil, or tincture for an intent you have often

make a sigil and set it as your phone background

paint your phone case with a sigil, a symbol, or a color coordinated with your intention (use acrylic and then coat it in mod podge!)

create a new talisman

write a hymn or incantation

create a playlist to listen to during witchy things

buy a service from a local witch if you can afford to– many are in need of money right now, especially

draw, paint, or sculpt a deity you worship and add it to your altar

use notecards to write down and categorize things you have for each basic intention (ex. write down all of the herbs, crystals, etc. you have for love, for money, etc. so you never have to sit and think hard on what you can use– it’s a quick-reference for yourself)

write down your favorite spells or ones that you want to try

in your school or work space, add a sigil or charm for productivity, focus, or stress-relief

make a new sachet for sleep

contact a witch friend and facetime them to meditate together or do readings for each other. it’s important to stay in touch!

make shoebox, on-the-go, or pocket altars so when quarantine is over you’ll keep your practice up in daily life

write yourself affirmation cards or letters to open in a month/year/whenever you like

make your own runes

enchant a piece of clothing or jewelry for stress-relief or motivation

learn more about your own natal chart

transfer the info you look for in your grimoire most often to make a quick-reference book of the most important pages for yourself

learn about the plants and trees around your house and their properties

sit in your yard for a little while and enjoy nature and it’s sounds

open your curtains and blinds and windows to let in a little fresh air and sun into the house

start journaling– being in-tune with yourself will improve you as a witch

write letters or send care packages to witchy friends with things like bay leaves, sigils, and kind notes

on your next grocery run, grab some seeds or plants and plant whatever is in season where you are. try something that can grow in your windowsill, if you’re new! this is a way to have sustainable ingredients for your witchcraft that has no pesticides and is cultivated with your energy.

alternatively, get flower seeds and plant them around your home. this will also give you a reason to step outside to tend to them from time to time.

learn a new song or hymn and perform it as an offering to your deity of choice

make a list of this year’s dates of full and new moons, transits, and holidays and mark them in your calendar or put them in the notes of your phone

How to return to the craft

“Darkening sky, [sun/star]light drain, I evoke the qualities of rain. Wide-coursing gale, I give thee warrant; With rapid wings bring tempest torrent.”

Babies: Dreaming of a baby/dreaming of being pregnant may be driven by your body’s biological desire to procreate, or it may mean that you want or need to be nurtured yourself. It may also signify a new idea.

Being chased: We tend to remember these dreams because the anxiety we feel during them is extremely vivid. Take a look at what’s chasing you to interpret the dream—because of course whatever it is you’re running away from is really the issue at hand. What is it you don’t want to face in your life? Your dream is telling you to stop running.

Death: As in tarot, these dreams do not portend literal death. You need not be worried that you are ill or that someone you love is in danger. Instead, they signal that you are at the start or in the middle of a big change —an ending of one thing and a new beginning of another.

Falling: Normally, falling indicates anxiety that comes after success. Once you’ve achieved what you wanted, how will you maintain it?

Flying: This is almost invariably a euphoric dream, and it often occurs once we’ve finally made a decision we’ve been putting off or when we’re feeling particularly confident that we can achieve our goals.

Nudity: We’ve all suffered from the “forgot your clothes” dream. This generally unpleasant dream signifies how vulnerable you are feeling. You may want to consider baring yourself regardless of your fear. Get it over with and really put your true self out there for the world to see.

People: Just about everyone dreams about other people, but the important thing to note is that each of the “characters” in our dreams represents some aspect of ourselves.

Sex: Along with just being good fun, sex dreams indicate that you have reached a new level of understanding and incorporated the intuitive with the conscious.

Test you didn’t study for: These dreams aren’t actually an argument against the stressors of the Common Core. Instead, they indicate that you are examining yourself, looking at past mistakes.

Out of control vehicle: You know that dream—the one where the brakes don’t work or the steering wheel won’t turn? It’s telling you that you’re trying too hard to control something that you simply don’t have control over. Relax the white-knuckle grip and let the road take you where it will.

Water: Water is generally thought to speak specifically to the state of the unconscious. If you’re dreaming of a stormy sea, you may be experiencing some emotional turbulence. But if you’re dreaming of a cool, clear stream, you are more likely experiencing mental clarity.

Historically Sacred Items/Offerings to each of the Ouranic Theoi! I made this for my Hellenic polytheism group on discord, so I thought I’d share this information with all of you as well.

All information has been taken from theoi.com as well as various historical books on the gods, and I have decided to make this powerpoint so that other people don’t have to sift through all the pdfs and books themselves.
