Beautiful Conjuring

This is going to be another long post but here are various basic magick oil recipes based on various traditions, including hoodoo, witchcraft, ceremonial magick, and chaos magick. These oils can be used for anointing candles, tools, sigils, spells, and personal empowerment. Keep in mind these are simple recipes that reflect the necessary ingredients needed. So, do your own research, experiment, and create your own powerful recipes over time.

as always, don't steal from other cultures, don't put salt on your grass, don't handle or ingest toxic metals or plants, and don't burn your house down! it's up to you to discern how to practice safely and ethically.

tiny money jars worked immediately that it scared me :')

ingredients

bay leaf (abundance)

white rice grains (prosperity)

salt (cleansing, protection)

thyme (purification, protection)

moonstone (manifestation)

white quartz (amplifier, cleansing, protection)

i sealed the top off with a green paper and used green ink to write my sigil (amplification), then tied it off. all the ingredients used are just things lying around the house. one of them is placed on my table where i work, and the other is something i can bring around.

i used a lot of protection symbols because i realized that there are so many ways to earn money if you trade off your peace, energy, and integrity. i could be hired into a good-paying job that takes advantage of me, come across opportunities to steal from others, or get a high-paying client that disrespects me – those are things i didn't want to happen.

cleansing motifs are to clear up the factors that prevent the spell from working as you'd like.

supporting spells. put a bayleaf with a fehu rune written on it in places where you typically put your money in (e.g., wallet, coin purse, coin bank).

walk barefoot on stones in shallow streams.

talk to the wind and let it carry away your regrets.

forage for wildflowers to place on your altar, press in thrifted books, or give to loved ones —be careful when identifying

watch sunrises and sunsets. wake up before the sun. bare witness to the painted sky.

spend hours in the woods among the wild. take long long walks or sit still and watch the world.

talk to plants and listen to them. make friends.

get field guides to trees, plants, birds, etc. that are native to your area. learn which are which. bookmark pages that you recognize or want to find.

sing back to the robins. caw back to the crows.

journal by firelight and feel the flame burn your worries away.

gather snow and bring a bowl inside. talk to it and tell it your worries. your fears. let it melt, transmuting your stress and worries into healing nourishment. bring it outside and water the soil. see how things can be changed.

dance. run. move your body to sweat, if this is something you can do

collect stones from the river and try to find the best ones. keep them in your pocket. hold onto them to remember that you’re an animal.

go to a lake and float. feel the water carry you. lifting you from your stress. bring a vial and collect some for spellwork.

make a necklace out of an acorn and thread.

stand in the rain. dance in it. lay down in the grass and let it pour. let it wash fears away, transform doubt to hope. start anew.

Then the maiden and her dear Roland took again their natural shapes, and traveled on the whole night through until daybreak. Then the maiden changed herself into a beautiful flower, standing in the middle of a hedge of thorns, and her dear Roland into a fiddle-player. It was not long before the witch came striding up, and she said to the musician, "Dear musician, will you be so kind as to reach that pretty flower for me?” "Oh yes," said he, "I will strike up a tune to it." Then as she crept quickly up to the hedge to break off the flower, for she knew well who it was, he began to play, and whether she liked it or not, she was obliged to dance, for there was magic in the tune. The faster he played, the higher she had to jump, and the thorns tore her clothes, and scratched and wounded her, and he did not cease playing until she was spent, and lay dead.

-Sweetheart Roland, Grimm's Complete Fairy Tales

Intent: To protect yourself or a loved one from someone who means to do you harm.

Ideal Timing: Waning Moon

Materials:

Jar with Screw-top Lid

Pins, Needles, & Tacks

Palmful of Salt*

Poppet

To begin with, yes, this is a spell of protection. And yes, it is also a baneful spell. Two things can be true, and they are not incongruous. This particular model is a target-triggered spell, meaning that the effect of the spell will not activate unless the target of the spell completes a designated action. Thus, the activation of the spell is the consequence of their own actions.

Take your poppet and stuff the material focus, if there is one, into the chest cavity. If a focus is not available, you can use a name slip or name the poppet thus:

Poppet, I name you [Name]. Your limbs are their limbs, your flesh is their flesh. As you suffer, so shall they suffer, according to my will.

If the target is an unknown person, the poppet can be named Danger or Threat, but this spell generally works best with a proper name. You can also specify the actions which will trigger the activation of the spell, as well as the consequences that will arise when it does, or the harm to be undone by the spell.

In the jar, combine half of the pins with the salt.* Put the poppet inside on top of the pins, then pour the rest of the pins on top to form a loose cage. Whisper into the jar:

On your feet, it's time to dance; With the music, jump and prance.

Cap the jar and seal the lid tightly. Select a song with a good dancing beat and shake the jar to the beat for as long as you can. If you can make it through the whole song, do so; if not, shake for as long as you can. The idea is that as the poppet "dances," it is pierced by the pins in the jar.

Set the jar aside somewhere that it won't be disturbed. Whenever the target gives you trouble, take the jar out, turn on the music, and shake the poppet full of pins. If at any point you feel the target has learned their lesson, retrieve the poppet from the jar, take out any pins stuck into it, and remove the focus or dunk the poppet in saltwater overnight to neutralize the spell.

*Yes, I know that salt is generally used to protect, or to neutralize a spell. In this case, it's there to make the pinpricks hurt more. Feel free to substitute your favorite noxious herb or stinging spice if you don't wish to use salt in your jar.

compiled from my personal grimoire & based on my personal associations & research

As summer is approaching, I thought I'd post about my witchcraft practice at the beach...

🐚 Use the sea water to cleanse your body and soul. Breathe in deeply, dive in, and spend a few seconds underwater to recite in your head "I'm getting rid of anything that isn't serving me, and release it all to the ocean".

🐚 Draw sigils onto the sand. It's a simple one, but can be quite powerful, especially if you keep on drawing it repeatedly as you sunbathe.

🐚 Whisper a protection spell as you apply suncream. This isn't just about protecting yourself from UV light. This simple act of self-care can ward off much more than that.

🐚 Collect shells for your altar. I think this one is my favourite. I'm always on the lookout for small items with strong significance to decorate my altar. Shells are the perfect items to have in preparation for Midsummer.

🐚 Sand has a strong association to time. Use it for any spells that require you to slow down and be in the present. Depending on where you are, the sand between your hands may be a thousand years old!

🐚 Meditate at sunrise, facing towards the ocean. Repeat wishes and manifestations while breathing in the salt air. If you ask something of the waves, you might just get it.

creating an altar to yourself: an exercise in manifestation and passive control

recently my best friend told me about a change he made to his personal practice that completely revolutionized the way he felt fortune flowed for him. i've seen people talk about creating an egregore of themselves or their alter ego, but this approach is uniquely secular and occurred completely detached from this online space.

and what was it he did? well, he created an altar to himself.

and i know what that sounds like, but hear me out. this isn't so much an altar of worship or reverence--at least not in the way we think about those things--it's a passive spell that runs in the background, an act of self-care for his past self, boosting his self-confidence for his current self, and manifesting the person he wants to become.

Amulets are great. The aura of being protected can make you feel more confident, calm, more care free! You can make amulets for all sorts of things! Love amulets, confidence amulets, protective amulets, even amulets that help attract money, friendship, health or happiness!

What can I make an amulet from?

Most people make amulets form crystals, but this is not the only option! You can make amulets from almost anything nature will give you! Natural materials like stone, wood, dried plants work the best. Crystals can get expensive real quick, so you don't have to worry, this is not an obligation and amulets made of other natural materials work just as well.

Quick correspondences

(short cheat-sheet)

Protection: black obsidian, black tourmaline, iron, rosemary, oak wood.

Love / heart work: rose quartz, pink stones, rose petals, lavender, weeping willow wood.

Clarity / amplification: clear quartz, pine wood.

Luck / abundance: citrine, green aventurine, basil, birch wood.

How do I choose?

Well, it's simple! The most important question is "can I bring it with me everywhere?" If the answer is yes, you can use it! The most common form is a necklace, but again, it's not your only option! I have multiple amulets, one of them is a small a baggie of dried flowers I carry in my purse. Earrings, bracelets, pendants, keychains, brooches, things you can keep in your backpack or purse. There really are a lot of good options.

How do I prepare it?

Perform a purification ritual, common methods include smudging with incense, sage or the smoke of a white candle. You can also choose dousing with salt water, if your object can be wet without being damaged.

How do I prepare myself?

Just like with every other ritual, it's good to ground yourself, focus, calm down, clear your head. Whatever helps you do this works! Dancing, writing, reading, listening to music, meditation, manifestation, mindfulness, singing, doing your skin or hair care routine. All things like this are great. You have to remember, don't rush anything. If something doesn't feel right, don't do it! You don't have to do everything by the book. Your relationship with magic shouldn't be stressful and subservient, it should be based on mutual respect and an honest want to help. You can help your deities, by doing rituals and/or giving them small offerings, and they can help you in return. It's a friendship. Remember that, whatever you do.

Making the amulet

Method 1 - Charm bag

Good for blends of herbs, tiny crystals, written intent.

Choose a small cloth pouch (silk, cotton, leather) about palm-sized.

Select your ingredients: 1–3 small herbs/crystals that match the intention (e.g., rosemary + black tourmaline for protection). Keep items small so the pouch closes nicely.

Hold the ingredients in your hands and focus: breathe, ground, and clearly state your intention out loud or in your head. Example intention: “I charge this pouch for gentle protection and calm.”

Place ingredients into the pouch. If you use a written sigil or name, fold it and add it inside.

Tie the pouch closed while visualizing a soft glow sealing your intent. You can knot three times (a symbolic triad), each knot saying a short line (e.g., “clear, protect, hold”).

Cleanse/charge: pass through incense smoke, leave overnight in moonlight, or hold above a candle’s light (safely), imagining the amulet filling with the intended energy.

Wear or carry it. Periodically recharge (new moon or full moon, or after intense events).

Method 2 - Wire-wrapped crystal pendant

Simple, you don’t need advanced wire-wrapping skills for a basic pendant.

Pick a crystal that resonates with you and your intention.

Cut ~15–30 cm of soft copper or silver-plated wire (20–24 gauge is beginner-friendly). Use jewelry pliers.

Make the bail: fold the wire in half, create a small loop at the center (this will be the top loop for the chain). Twist the two free wires together beneath the loop to form a stem.

Place the stone against the stem and wrap the two wires around the stone’s sides, alternating wraps to hold it snugly. Cross the wires under the stone to create a cradle. Trim excess wire and tuck ends neatly so nothing snags. (If you’re new to wrapping, practice with a cheap bead first.)

Cleanse and charge: pass through smoke, leave in moonlight/sunlight as appropriate for the stone, and place your charging intention into it by breath and visualization. You can whisper a short consecration while holding it.

Method 3 - Sigil token

Symbolic, very personal

Decide intention and design a sigil (condense a short phrase like “safe travel” into a sigil by the method of removing repeating letters and combining shapes, or draw an existing sacred symbol meaningful to you).

Transfer the sigil to a small wooden disk, coin edge, a bone fragment.

Optional: seal with varnish or a thin coat of clear resin (ventilate).

Cleanse/charge/consecrate with your chosen method (smoke, moonlight, breath/visualization). Speak a short dedication aloud: e.g., “By my will and careful intent, this sigil token stands as (purpose). So be it.”

You're magical ☽⛧☾

Remember, all you do is magic. You live magic! And amulets can help you see this magic more clearly. That's why they're great!

source: trust me bro, i've been doing this for years

if you don't have personal beef with christianity as a concept, i highly recommend reaching out to the angels when you need help. they are POWERFUL and EFFICIENT and i love them very much.

branch out from the usual spell methods. instead of doing a jar or a bowl spell, sit down at the lake or in the forest and make a spell strictly with thing you find around you. it's fun, it makes you think more about the different ways to use ingredients and the ingredients to your spell will interact well with the environment because they belong there, which makes it easier to infuse them with energy (in my opinion)

while online, direct your feelings (positive or negative) toward people with a few words. for example, if you see a really bad fascist politician you don't like, channel your inner hatred and say something like "you deserve to be miserable for the rest of your days and then rot in hell for eternity" with the intent for the hatred to reach them. will this be as powerful as an actual curse with preparation? no. but hey, it's better than nothing.

drop 1 cent coins in public for others to find as a way to spread luck and happiness.

listen to music that amplifies your emotions while you're performing a spell

utilize techniques for a quick spell that you always have with you. blow on something to cleanse it. close your fist around something and channel your energy into it for a minute. whisper something to an item to enchant it, and so on.

if you're in an altered state of consciousness, do a divination session. it has the potential to he the funniest shit ever

When looking around your yard or local biome for wild plants to harvest for your craft, there are several important things to keep in mind:

1 - Prepare for your trip ahead of time. Have some idea ahead of time where you're going, what the terrain and weather will be like, and what plants you want to look for and harvest. Make sure you wear appropriate clothing and footwear, and bring containers, supplies for labeling, and a travel-size resource for plant identification. (Pro-tip: Paper lunch bags are excellent receptacles for harvested plants.)

2 - Look for patches of plants well away from roadways and places which might be contaminated by chemical runoff or pesticides. When possible, select a large patch where your harvest won't wipe out the presence of the plant. (The exception to this is if you are removing invasive plants or weeding a prepared garden as part of your harvesting.)

3 - Make sure you properly identify plants before you harvest them, using a field guide for local plants or an identification app like Plantnet. This helps you avoid potentially harmful lookalikes. (And it couldn't hurt to look up what harmful plants exist in the area where you'll be looking.) Do not harvest endangered plants or plants growing on private property or in national parks. When in doubt, leave it alone.

4 - Take a modest amount of plant material for your stores, no more than you reasonably need, while disturbing the surrounding area as little as possible. Clearly label the container with the species and date of harvest. (Again, I'm recommending those paper lunch bags.) As an added courtesy, you can bring a bottle of water and hydrate the remaining plants to encourage regrowth.

5 - Clean and dry your plant material when you get home, if necessary. Just give them a quick rinse and gentle pat-dry with a clean kitchen towel before placing the plants into your preferred drying device. One simple solution is to cut the flaps off of wide, shallow cardboard shipping boxes and lay out the plant material in a flat layer so that most of it is touching the cardboard. (As opposed to leaving it in a big heap.) Label the sections or the side of the tray and leave your plants to dry.

6 - If you're not using an oven or a dehydrator, allow plant material to dry for at LEAST two or three weeks before breaking it up for storage in airtight jars or freezer bags. Make sure the plants are dry and brittle all the way through to avoid rot and mold in your storage containers and spoilage of the contents. Label and date the containers and store at room temperature out of direct sunlight. (If you discover mold or a bad smell in any of your containers, discard the contents and either throw away the container or sterilize it for reuse - this generally only works for glass jars.)

7 - Check back periodically! Give your wild plant patches time to regrow and you can then make additional small harvests on future visits. Also, look for different plants to emerge as the seasons change.

Familiarizing yourself with your local biome allows you to connect with the land where you live (and encourages you to care about it in the process). Also, it can garner you components for your workings for the cost of a few bags and an afternoon stroll.

But wait! What if your local wild weeds don't have magical correspondences? Not to worry - there's an exercise for that.
