Modern witch tips ✨️
Apartment rules edition
Many people live in apartments where you have a shit ton of rules to follow. Here are some tips <3 (coming from a witch who is prepping to move into one)
No candles/open flames/smoke? You can use fake candles for the vibe, wax melts for the smell (can be decorated like you would a candle), just spray air fresheners (you can make your own for cleansing, using moonwater, vinegar, and certain herbs), or cleanse with sound (using bells, music, singing, incantations, etc)
Use command strips/hooks to hang your decor.
No/limited window space? If you're trying to charge via moon or sun, you can sit the things in your car (if it is safe to do so)
Simmer pots are a great tool as well, they smell great, no flame, no smoke and you could even toss them in a slow cooker and not have to watch it.
Hang cinnamon above your doors/windows (or put a single stick on top of the frame) to keep out negativity
WITCHES BELLS ON YOUR DOOR. This is a safety thing. My mom hung a bell on a string for our dogs to ring to use the bathroom, and it's stuck with me, because if anyone tries to open your door, you will hear it. Make it witchy by doing witches bells for protection.
Cleanse and ward your space, lock your mirrors and your windows and your doors (spiritually and physically)
Sprinkle salt on your doorstep to keep negativity out
Windchimes/suncatchers to keep energy positive
Paint or draw sigils on the underside of your rugs/decor/artwork to keep your space safe
Sweep from the inside out, start at the far end and go to the front door, that way you're moving the stale energy out of your place.
If the weather is nice and you feel safe enough, open the windows/blinds and let the air/sunshine/moonlight in. Let it cleanse or charge your space.
No mats or signs that say "welcome" or anything like that -> it's said that malevolent spirits will take that as an invitation into your place, and in an apartment its probable it'll get stolen anyway
The bells was something I didn’t think about! My Service Dog uses them to tell me she needs outside. It does act like a doorbell too
