i fell ill this week, so i made myself a spell jar... that you can eat!

quick note: practice food-safety!

ingredients

honey (healing, abundance, cleansing)

garlic (warding off illness)

rosemary (cleansing, purifying)

this jar has both magical and microbial benefits that can help with common colds.

skin your garlic and slice them in half, then add the rest of your ingredients. you can also add other herbs (my personal favorites are oregano and thyme). close the lid shut and keep it in a cool place to ferment, away from sunlight. make sure that the jar you use is clean and sanitized.

after a week, you can eat the garlic on its own or use the mix to add it to your toast for a sweet and savory flavor. however, i suggest allowing it to ferment for more than a month (~6 months best for the garlic pungence to mellow).

supporting spells. draw a sigil/rune on a piece of paper and stick it under the jar or over it to "seal" its properties until they're ready to consume. when the jar is closed shut, you may use incense to bless the spell by hovering it outside the jar (not inside). you can place the jar on your dedicated altar or just your countertop.

This candle spell aims to boost self-love, confidence, and good vibes. Pick a ring or pendant to imbue with this spell's magic 💋

Materials:

Pink candle (any kind, I used a tealight but you could also use a chime, votive, pillar, etc.)

Anointing oil

Peppermint

Cinnamon

Orange peel

Pink salt

Pretty fireproof dish + small fireproof container

All of your rose quartz (or as much as you can fit on your altar)

Some clear quartz, optionally rutilated quartz

Moonstones (peach, rainbow, black, etc.)

Moon water

Smoke/sound cleanse your materials!

Step 1:

Fill your small container with salt (you'll be putting your candle in/on it) and place it on top of the dish. Place your jewelry, orange peel, and a clear quartz on the dish around the container.

Step 2:

Dress your candle and place it in the salt. Make sure it's secure and won't fall over.

Step 3:

Organize your other crystals around the candle in a way that calls to you. Light the candle. Visualize the energy from the candle and crystals filling you with light.

Step 4:

Rub moon water on your ring/pendant and repeat this chant 3x:

Confirma amorem et lumen et fortitudinem

Latin, translates to "strengthen love, light, and courage"

(hopefully; going off of what I remember from high school latin 🥲)

Step 5:

Visualize or meditate while the candle burns out. Hold your jewelry over the candle's smoke.

Wear your jewelry and cleanse/charge it just you would a crystal.

✨️ 🌒🌕🌘 ✨️

✨️ 🌒🌕🌘 ✨️

this helps keep malevolent spirits away, protects our home, protects us, and when the wind will blow it away, it will not damage the gardens and soils it lands in.

as i spread this i chanted:

[Alt Title: To Return Negativity (Such as "the Evil Eye" or "the Gaze"]

To protect your home from negativity or unwanted attention originating from a jealous or malicious person, create a baneful Witch’s Bottle to return all negativity to its origin in the form of ill luck and poor health. 

Note: This is not a curse; nor is it a hex/jinx. It is a protective spell with a baneful element. This means that the baneful qualities of this bottle will not be activated unless they are triggered by the actions of someone else. You do not need to know the identity of the person to use this spell; nor do you need to focus this spell on one particular person. It is effective for any and all negative energy and ill wishes. 

Gather:

three cloves of garlic or pearl onions

sea salt

protective herbs, optional (pulverized into a powder)

graveyard dirt or headstone moss, optional

nails, pins, broken glass or needles, optional

a small jar with a lid

red thread, optional

candles for sealing

an awl, candle scribe, nail or other sharp implement for inscribing

Step One: Prepare, cleanse, and awaken your items however you normally would. When ready, inscribe an open eye onto each of the cloves/onions. Remove any peel that obstructs the eye from view. 

Step Two: Place the cloves/onions in a jar and cover them with sea salt. Add any extra herbs, dirt or components you desire for protection. Place the lid on the jar and, if desired, tie the red thread around the jar. Seal with wax. 

Much in the way that charms, wreaths and garlands decorate and bewitch your home, so too can the humble adornments on your person serve you in ways that go beyond the aesthetic.

You might be familiar by now with using a pendant or a ring threaded onto a chain as a pendulum for divination. But why stop there? Lockets and poison rings can be used to carry a bit of herbs, incense or oils with you, or a lock of hair to keep a person close to your heart. Brooches and hat pins can pin a taglock to your person, so that neither heart wanders. Earrings can be enchanted to lend you a better ear and improve your attention, or to carry good news to you swiftly. Glasses can be enchanted to keep your view of things clear. Necklaces can be used to keep your words sweet, sensible or powerful. You can gift a foe a cursed bracelet to bind their hands away from you: this works especially well with heavy bangles or with bracelets made of stones and metals used often in baneful magic.

Of course, these are only a few ideas and you may get as creative as your mind will allow.

Rings in particular are my favourite type of jewellery to use, and they are quite good for commanding control over your hands:

To make them gentler, treat with lavender, linden or chamomile, and wear on your pinkie or ring finger;

To make them steadier while crafting, rosemary, hazelwood or appletree bark, and wear on the middle finger;

To make them firmer and more decisive wear especially hard stones and use oak or walnut, ginger, nettle or mulberry and wear on the thumb or forefinger.

When given to or by a beloved, treat with the blossoms of any fruit tree, with daffodils and other sturdy wildflowers, and with the stalks of any grain to ensure a secure, fruitful, abundant connection.

Now, I brought up specific enchantments only for rings; but they should work for any piece of jewellery. Of course, first ensure that the piece is made of materials that can sustain the treatment. Then, you can either rub with the oils of the desired plants, burn a little bit of these plants and pass your jewellery through the smoke, boil the plants in a little water, let cool and dip your jewellery, or simply crush into a fine powder and sprinkle on the jewellery. For the latter two you can leave the jewellery there overnight or day, to charge from the sun or moon. Another very good method of activation though, particularly for jewellery symbolising a connection, is to speak affirmations and to make frequent contact, such as by stroking.

For example: I like to charge my engagement ring by kissing the stone whenever I think of or miss my fiancé as I go about my day; and in turn, this gives me a feeling of grounding and fondness. Similarly, he wears earrings I got him so he always remembers my words, and remains easy to find by attracting only my attention.

Jewellery borrowed from friends and family can strengthen your bond and keep you safe, especially on voyages. It is a good idea, before going on a long journey or when facing a big change or a trial, to exchange jewellery with loved ones in order to borrow from each other's strength.

Witch tip: Another way to use scraps is to dry your used teabags:

Squeeze out as much liquid as possible.

Carefully open the bag (some tea brands will just unfold, others will need to be cut).

Evenly spread the contents out, either on the bag itself or on a plate.

Then let them dry in a sunny dry place (you may need to agitate them once or twice to ensure even drying).

Once dry, store them for later use in spells.

Bonus tip: You can also save the dried bags and reuse them as a small biodegradable spell packet or as quick burning petition papers.

What you'll need

A citrine, crystal that represents abundance

A piece of paper

What you'll do

☀️ Reconnect with yourself to identify what is lacking (money, health, relationship, happiness, time, fulfillment…) and above all, where the blockages lie. Generally, these blockages are the result of a fear; fear of change, of others' judgment, of no longer being loved…

☀️ Write down what's on your mind on the sheet of paper.

☀️ Close your eyes and think back to what you wrote, while trying to identify the emotions that arise (nervousness, sadness, fear…). Accept them as they come and as they are.

☀️ Imagine a ball of light moving through your body to remove the obstacles standing in the way of abundance.

☀️ Then pick up the citrine.

☀️ Visualize what you would do with this abundance, connecting to the feeling of joy it would bring you. Set no limits for yourself.

☀️ Once you are ready, plant your piece of paper in the soil of a potted plant in your home.

Sometimes, when I get stuck in a bit of a rut, cleaning helps. Just keeping busy and being productive can make all the difference in the world for those stuck days.

That's one reason I love this floor wash. It helps to clear away the stagnation and invite dynamic movement and energy into the home.

To do

Bring a pot of water to boil. Add pine needles and a handful of mint leaves. Simmer until nice and fragrant. Strain out the botanicals. Add a splash of white vinegar.

Mop with your doors and/or windows open. As you clean, think of the things that need to be released. Imagine the stagnation that has built being washed away.

Once you are done, say:

"Come in, new energy, and dance across this floor.

All that is good and needed may walk right through this door."

Color magic involves using colors to amplify intentions, emotions, or goals in various spiritual and energetic practices. Each color is believed to carry specific energies and symbolism, which can be harnessed to support desired outcomes. Here’s a guide on how to understand and use color magic effectively:

Understanding Color Magic

Each color vibrates at a particular frequency, which corresponds to different emotions, intentions, and even elements. By consciously incorporating specific colors into rituals, spells, meditation, or daily life, you can align your energy with these symbolic meanings and focus your intentions.

Using Color Magic in Practice

You can incorporate color magic in many ways, depending on your preferences and what feels meaningful to you. Here are some methods:

1. Candles

How: Choose a candle color that aligns with your intention. For instance, red candles are used for passion or energy, while blue candles promote peace or healing.

Use: Light the candle and focus on your goal or intention. The candle flame serves as a visual focal point while the color supports the energy behind your intention.

2. Clothing and Accessories

How: Wear colors that resonate with your goals or desired energy for the day.

Use: For instance, wearing yellow for a presentation could boost confidence, while green might enhance feelings of balance and compassion.

3. Crystals and Stones

How: Choose crystals that carry both the color and properties you’re seeking. Green crystals like malachite can support abundance, while blue stones like lapis lazuli encourage communication and intuition.

Use: Carry the stone, place it on an altar, or use it in meditation.

4. Visualization

How: Visualize a particular color filling your body or a specific area to invoke its energy.

Use: For grounding, imagine a warm red light surrounding your feet and legs. For peace, visualize yourself surrounded by calming blue light.

5. Decor and Environment

How: Arrange colors in your living or working space to influence the mood and energy.

Use: For example, adding green plants for growth and health or using purple in a meditation space for spiritual insight.

6. Food and Drink

How: Choose foods and drinks of a particular color to absorb that color's energy internally.

Use: Eating green foods like leafy vegetables can support health and abundance, while drinking herbal tea from blue or lavender flowers can promote relaxation.

7. Writing and Art

How: Use colored pens, markers, or paints that correspond to your goals.

Use: Write affirmations in a color that reflects your intention. For example, writing in gold or yellow for success and abundance or using pink for love and friendship.

Examples of Color Magic Intentions

Here’s a quick guide to what each color can be used for:

Red:

Passion, strength, courage, protection, vitality, motivation, survival, sexuality, confidence, love, grounding

Orange:

Creativity, enthusiasm, ambition, success, independence, joy, attraction, adaptability, spontaneity, self-expression

Yellow:

Happiness, intellect, clarity, confidence, optimism, learning, mental clarity, communication, inspiration, concentration

Green:

Healing, abundance, growth, balance, health, prosperity, luck, renewal, fertility, compassion, harmony

Blue:

Peace, communication, truth, relaxation, wisdom, trust, loyalty, intuition, sincerity, healing, calm

Purple:

Spirituality, intuition, wisdom, transformation, psychic ability, mystery, magic, dignity, enlightenment, higher consciousness

White:

Purity, protection, clarity, peace, truth, innocence, unity, spirituality, simplicity, cleansing, illumination

Black:

Protection, grounding, mystery, transformation, strength, banishing negativity, introspection, power, resilience, ending cycles

Pink:

Love, compassion, friendship, self-love, emotional healing, kindness, warmth, romance, affection, harmony, nurturing

Brown:

Stability, grounding, security, nature, simplicity, reliability, endurance, practicality, home, comfort, physical health

Gold:

Wealth, success, confidence, enlightenment, luxury, illumination, positivity, abundance, power, divine wisdom

Silver:

Intuition, reflection, feminine energy, lunar energy, dreams, psychic ability, clarity, protection, emotional balance, patience

Color Magic Tips

Trust Your Intuition: If a color has a particular meaning for you that isn’t “traditional,” go with it. Personal associations are powerful.

Stay Intentional: Color magic works best when you actively focus on the desired outcome while working with the color.

Combine Colors: Mixing colors can create new, nuanced intentions. For instance, combining green and gold can amplify goals related to both abundance and success.
