Washi tape!

Are you in a dorm or other place where you can’t burn candles, but the healing spell asks for a blue candle? Use washi tape to turn your electric candle into a blue one! Do you want to burn a rose candle on your Aphrodite altar but you’re not allowed an open flame? Well, it doesn’t smell like roses but it’s pretty and has pink flowers!

Do you want the tealight in forest-themed travel altar to match the rest of the aesthetic? Washi tape!

Washi tape is removable, so you can keep changing the colour to whatever you need. And you can write on it, so instead of carving candles, you can draw your sigils or runes on the tape!

I got an ask about how I do knotwork and ended up writing a novel, so here’s the rebloggable version that might be helpful for others.

I’m a pretty forgetful person, very “out of sight, out of mind” type, so knotwork and jewelry spells are one of my favorite methods of spellwork. A visible reminder helps keep focus on the intent so remembering to do mundane things to work towards the goal isn’t forgotten after the spellwork is done. I’ve found it very practical to be able to “wear” the magic. The basic idea behind the spell is that you’re locking in your intent with each knot. Binding spells are great with knotwork, as you can visualize what you want to happen while physically binding and knotting the cords/strings/ribbons together.

Here is an example - I made this spell bottle for a friend, who needed a bit of help meeting new friends. After I put in the regular spell ingredients, I sealed it with a braid-pattern friendship bracelet. Using red for courage, orange for motivation, and yellow for communication, I visualized each part working and weaving together to bring my friend that little push he needed to meet new people. You can get very complex with just using string and cords, especially if you do friendship bracelets or macrame. Look for a pattern that flows with your goal. Are you trying to ward something? Find or create a pattern that features symbols that you associate with warding. I would make something like this:

Maybe you’re planning a trip to the casino and you want a good luck charm. Take something you associate with success or “lucky” and incorporate it into something wearable. Personally, I would attach a small bell to whatever jewelry I make for the luck part, not unlike these:

A common and simple charm to attract love would be to wear a string of rose quartz beads. Add in knotwork to bind it all together with a string color that represents what you’re trying to attract. Here’s an example of of a shamballa style bracelet, made with rose quartz and pink cord that could be charged with the intent of attracting love:

This may be one of my favorite and most useful spells I've cast. I'm an ADHD witch, with a particular knack for procrastination. Chores were always a bore, and ultimately I knew I wasn't living up to my potential. So I crafted this spell 🌞

Designed to be performed under the High Noon Father Sun & the Early Afternoon Warrior Sun, this spell not only brings focus to the task at hand, but makes chores feel more enjoyable.
