Nox Magica

while you coullllddd just say a phrase with intent, i like to be extra and ~witchy~ so i came up with an easy way to enchant phrases that helps me visualize everything at each step!

MATERIALS: - paper - writing utensil - crystal/wand/anything you can use to outline something

DIRECTIONS: 1. think about what word/phrase you want to enchant 2. make a sigil for that exact phrase! 3. to charge your sigil, follow its lines with your crystal (or whatever u choose) and imagine white light flowing through your tool and into the sigil with each stroke you make 4. visualize each line of the sigil glowing as you charge it and see the sigil in your mind 5. visualize yourself grabbing the sigil into your hands. its charge is so strong that the white light shines through your fingers 6. channel your intent into the sigil. either say it out loud or in your head, but announce what you want your phrase to do every time you say it. for me, i used the phrase, “thank you” and every time i say it to someone, they will feel happier. their happy energy will then rub off on me, so we both feel boosted! on top of that, i made it someone says “you’re welcome,” it recharges. BAM MAGIC 7. now that your sigil is charged and programmed, do whatever you want to cast it for the first time. for me, i visualized myself blowing the sigil out of my hands and into the universe! 

As a witch and an avid coffee lover, I felt like its time for some frappuccino magick (and some suggested stones you can pair with them)!

A little disclaimer - No, I am not being paid to post this or anything… I just really like coffee. 😊

☕ Caramel - Bring some sweetness into your day! Caramel is sticky and sweet, so drink some to attract positivity and comfort to stick with you throughout the day! You could also drink it while you’re studying to help things stick in your brain. Pair with sodalite.

☕ Chai Creme - Don’t you mean the perfect spiced up love potion in coffee form?? This frappuccino uses a spicy chai tea which contains black tea, cardamom, cinnamon, ginger, clove, star anise, and pepper aka your perfect blend of passion, charm, courage, lust, and aphrodisiacs.. *wink wink*. Pair with garnet.

☕ Cinnamon Dolce - On the go? Pairing cinnamon, coffee, and sugary goodness is great for boosting your energy! Relaxing? Who doesn’t love a warm cinnamon-y sugar feeling? You can also use this beverage to bring peace and relaxation! Pair with carnelian / blue lace agate. 

☕ Coffee - Coffee is fantastic for mental clarity and grounding. If you’re having one of those days, get some coffee and go for a walk. Take advantage of the boosted alertness to enjoy nature, clear your mind, and overcome any internal blockages. Pair with hematite.

☕ Cotton Candy - (Does not contain caffeine) This vanilla and raspberry frappuccino is perfect for two things: peace and love. Vanilla’s calming aroma paired with this fruit of patience encourages peace of mind. On the other hand, vanilla’s loving vibrations paired with raspberries’ fidelity give you a perfect romance drink. (Raspberries are also used with pregnancy spells which is great because it is also caffeine free!) Pair with moonstone.

☕ Green Tea Creme - (Does not contain caffeine) Green tea is great for healing! It boosts immunity, reduces bad cholesterol, promotes healthy cell growth, is high in antioxidants, and helps you to relax if you are tense. When drinking, you can see your beverage cleansing and detoxing with every sip you take. Pair with bloodstone. 

☕ Java Chip and Mocha - One word: chocolate. These two frappuccinos are practically the same thing except one has chocolate chips in it, so I’m going to group them together. Chocolate is all about love and friendship, and people often give or receive chocolate as rewards. Pair it with a self-love bath and indulge. You deserve it! Pair with rhodonite. 

☕ Midnight Mint - How about a minty sweet cleanse? Mint is all about protection and cleansing, and when paired with chocolate brings a little positivity with it. Mint is also great for breaking spells, hexes, and jinxes, so if you’re feeling a bit wary, go grab yourself a drink! Pair with black tourmaline.

☕ Pumpkin Spice - The perfect drink around Samhain to give you all your favorite fall spices in one! Pumpkins are fantastic for bringing some money your way especially when paired with the other spices in your PSF. On top of that, pumpkins are great for divination. Tarot readings in Starbucks, anyone? Pair with aventurine. 

☕ Strawberries & Creme - (Does not contain caffeine) Strawberries are very similar to raspberries correspondence wise. This drink is great for innocent or platonic love and happiness! Pair this drink with a friendship spell, or just grab one with your best bud. Pair with rose quartz.

☕ Vanilla Bean - (Does not contain caffeine) Vanilla is always known for its amazing aroma! This drink is fantastic to drink for positivity, whether for yourself, or paired with a spell for others or your home. Pair with amethyst.

☕ White Chocolate Mocha - I love white chocolate for glamour! Just like regular chocolate, it brings positivity, but white chocolate has a sweeter and lighter taste to it. Drink this in the morning to give yourself some boosted confidence and self-positivity for the day! Pair with selenite.

Added note: You can always switch out regular milk for almond milk! Almond milk is great for wisdom, prosperity, fruitfulness, and healing. 

Drink up and enjoy!

A spell to help you retain information when studying, and to gain academic success in general. I’ve kept this one to myself for a while, but I feel like it’s time to share the wealth.

Witchlings and Baby Witches, gather ‘round to learn how to cast a simple Circle.  You may be wondering, “Why do we cast Circles?” and that can be easily answered!  Most of the time, we cast Circles to create a sacred space where our spellwork and rituals can be conducted.  There are other various reasons, but you can discover that with time, research, and practice.  For this lesson, we are going to focus on creating that sacred space for you.

THINGS TO CONSIDER BEFORE CASTING A CIRCLE

**Circles can be cast alone or with others.  If you are participating with other witches, you may want to print them off a “script” of what will be said and done that way everyone can participate.  Change “I” in the script to “we”, “me” to “us”, and so on and so forth.

**Circles can be cast indoors and outdoors.  However, I do caution you not to cast Circles without getting the permission of the person who owns said space, home, property, etc.  

**You can decorate and dress up for your Circle casting.  Using the appropriate colors, plants, stones, and meaningful objects can aid in powering your Circle.  This, however, is not necessary.

**Decide in advance what will be done in the Circle.  Make a plan of what you want to do inside your circle, whether it worship, prayer, spellwork, or meditation.  Don’t feel rushed and take your time.  

**Music may be used to accompany the Circle casting and rituals.  I typically choose songs that don’t have words.  (I get distracted easily by music.)

**Feel free to customize these words and tailor them to fit your own practices.  You can substitute “walls and floors” with “foliage, stones, and ground” if you are casting outside.  Names for Gods and Goddesses may be used in place of “Lord and Lady.”

**There is no right way to cast a Circle.  There are many traditions that different witches use.  Find what you like, experiment and customize your circle casting ritual.

**NOTE**  This is just one example of how to cast a Circle (one I used when I was just starting out.)

TOOLS FOR CASTING THE CIRCLE

Candles, incense, matches (or a lighter), representations of the four corners, decorations, an athame (ceremonial knife) or wand. 

BASIC CIRCLE CASTING

1.  Ground and center, and then lay out where your Circle will be cast.  This doesn’t have to be physically marked, but I have seen people use cord, chalk, and candles.  (Note: using lit candles can be dangerous.  Please take precautions when doing this.  We don’t want anyone or anything getting hurt.)  I used to create a small altar at the direction North with representations of the four elements.

2.  Light incense and candles, and make your announcement:  The Circle is about to be cast and I freely stand within to greet my Lady and my Lord.

3.  Take one candle in hand and begin walking the Circle.  Here, we are acknowledging the Four Quarters (North, South, East, and West.)  We will stop at each direction and call out the corresponding greeting found below.  For this, we will walk deosil around our Circle.  To move deosil is to move in a clockwise (or sunwise) direction.  Once you have finished acknowledging the directions, return to North.

–North:  I call upon Light and Earth at the North to illuminate and strengthen the Circle. –East:  I call upon Light and Air at the East to illuminate and enliven the Circle. –South:  I call upon Light and Fire at the South to illuminate and warm the Circle. –West:  I call upon Light and Water at the South to illuminate and cleanse the Circle.

4.  Return the candle to its rightful place and raise the athame or wand into your hand facing North.  Call out:  I draw this Circle in the Presence of the Lady and the Lord that They may aid and bless me in my work.

5.  Lower the athame or wand and walk deosil once more around the Circle, envisioning a blue light shoot out from the Circle’s boundary.  Call out:  This is the boundary of the Circle, around me, through walls and floors, above me and below me as a sphere is the Circle cast and consecrated to the Lady and the Lord that They may work with and through Their child, (your name/Craft Name).  This Circle is charged by the power of the Ancient Ones!  Only love shall enter and leave.

Begin your ritual, spellcasting, meditation, or any other word you wish inside the Circle.  Within it, you will be protected.  However, a word of caution: if you are a witchling, make sure you do not over exert yourself inside the Circle.  Casting any magic can make anyone grow weary or tired, so be aware of how much energy you are expending.  Like any magic, it takes time and practice.  When you have finished your work, you will open your Circle.

OPENING THE CIRCLE

6.  Take the athame or wand in hand both hands facing North.  Call out:  Lord and Lady, I have been blessed by Your sharing this time with me; watching and guarding me; guiding me here and in all things.  I came in love and I depart in love.

7.  Raise the athame or wand high in the air in salute.  Call out:  Love is the Law and Love is the Bond.  Merry did I meet, merry do I part, and merry will I meet again.  The Circle is cleansed.

8.  Kiss the flat of the blade or the tip of the wand.  Here, we will bid farewell to the Quarters and move widdershins.  Widdershins, which can be spelled withershins, widershins, widderschynnes, appears to come from German and Lowland Scottish. In German, widersinning means “against the senses”, that is “not the usual”, or “against the grain.”  For our purposes, it means to move counter-clockwise.  So, we will go from North to West, South, and East.  As you move, this would be the time to blow out candles if they are how you laid out your Circle.  Once you have finished saying goodbye to the Quarters, return North.

–Depart in peace, Elemental Earth.  My blessings take with you! –Depart in peace, Elemental Water.  My blessings take with you! –Depart in peace, Elemental Fire.  My blessings take with you! –Depart in peace, Elemental Air.  My blessings take with you!

9.  Raise your arms into the air with athame or wand in hand.  Call out:  Beings and powers of the visible and invisible, depart in peace!  You aid in my work, whisper in my mind, and bless me from the Otherworld.  Let there ever be harmony between us.  My blessings take with you.  The Circle is cleared!

10.  Take the athame or wand in hand, and move widdershins once more around the Circle, calling out:  The Circle is open yet the Circle remains as its magical power is drawn back into me.  The Circle has been cleared.  My ritual has ended.

11.  Place athame or wand aside, and take a seat on the floor (you may also lie on your back.)  Close your eyes and focus on grounding excess energy by touching your palms to the floor.  Let the magic in the room (or outdoors) disperse and settle.  Take a few deep breaths, open your eyes, and begin cleaning up your space.

I hope all of you find this helpful.  Again, Circle casting can be completely tailored and customized for your needs, and you don’t have to cast one this way.  It is meant to be a resource for those just starting out.  If you have any questions, you can reach me via ASK or by messaging me.

Blessings, little ones!

A simple spell to banish your stress as the moon goes dark.

You will need:

Moon water collected in the waning moon

Strips of paper

Something to write with

You may want to perform this at night with a view of the waning moon, but it’s not necessary.

Steps:

Prepare yourself for the spell. Ground yourself, create a witchy atmosphere, get yourself in the right mindset, or anything else you do to prepare.

On your pieces of paper, write down everything that is causing you stress. School? Work? Relationships? Mental or physical illnesses? Be specific, allow yourself to pour your emotions out and onto the paper.

When you are ready, soak the paper in your moon water and chant: “may the power of the waning moon banish my stress, anxiety and negativity. as this paper melts away into nothing so will the emotions poured into it.”

#BackToSchoolWitchcraft - Day 7

Write a spell to increase your memory

What you’ll need:

Rosemary - to improve memory

A fallen leaf or feather - representation of the element of air

A crystal charging box - works with this intent too

A sharpie - optional

How to do:

1) Make a crystal charger box. You will need both a bottom and a top for this. You may use an old one, as long as it has got the right intent to charge.

2) This part is optional. Use your sharpie and draw a symbol you associate with air - could be a sigil or just the word ‘air’. I chose to draw the alchemical symbol of air. 

3) Place a few pinches of rosemary and your leaf/feather into the box. Whisper or think of your intent - to let the element of air and the rosemary aid your memory to increase. Put the lid on and shake it gently in a clockwise motion, to raise some energy and make the ingredients connect with each other. Leave it to charge overnight.

4) Go to a high place, a hill or even a mountain, or somewhere windy. If you can’t find such place, your backyard is just as fine. Blow or throw the leaf/feather into the air, and then leave the place. 

“I remember what I study”

These stones can help you by improving concentration, balancing mood, opening your mind, reducing stress, and improving memory. 

Fluorite ~ Okay so I’ve said before that this is my all-time favorite gemstone. It’s known to heighten your mental abilities, bring order to a rather disorderly situation, aids in mental clarity  and assists in processing information. It also absorbs negative energies which helps reduce stress so make sure to clear it often. 

Snowflake Obsidian ~ balances the mind, body, and spirit while it calms. It makes the mind more receptive to learning, and brings focus to the beholder. 

Mahogany Obsidian ~ Has traits similar to snowflake obsidian as well as inspiring you to obtain your goals and promote intellectual growth, but it is not as effective in cutting through stress.

Sugilite (Luvulite) ~ This is a wonderful stone for people with learning difficulties, dyslexia, autism, etc. It promotes harmony with oneself as well as with one’s peers. This purple stone will promote cooperation, self-confidence, positive thoughts and actions, calm the nerves while eliminating headaches and combating fatigue. It helps you to comprehend the material, will facilitate memory retention, and inspire you to be a good student.

Mangano Calcite ~ instills a quest for knowledge, brings focus, reduces emotional stress, boosts memory retention and supports a feeling of self-worth and self-acceptance. Proper nutrition and growth is one other characteristic that this stone promotes (which is awesome if you’re like me and you’re poor and starving bc books are too much). 

Carnelian ~ This aids in concentration and helps increase personal power. It increases analytical capabilities, and will enhance your focus and determination. 

Clear Quartz ~ Don’t we all love clear quartz? This stones aids in mental clarity, focus, and stimulates the mind. It amplifies thought processes and is all around a great crystal and is easy to find. 

Citrine ~ This is my favorite stone for success. It promotes confidence, rids negative energies, and increases personal power. It will aid in mental focus and clearing, as well as helping one endure through tests, finals, etc. This particular crystal is known for never retaining any negative energies, which makes it a very joyous stone. 

A spell for focus and/or absorbing information for all my adhd buddies (or anyone else who may need it)!!!

Those are my notes above, but if you cant read my handwriting (which is likely) here is a transcript:

-I took an old, broken, pantech phone and took out the circut board

-i took the sim card out and placed the board in a jar with rosemary, blue agate, and rhodonite

-I also put some other various purple things lying about (beads, sequins, ect) in the jar also but thats optional i just associate purple with knowledge/learning

-Then i left the jar on my alter to charge with my crystals overnight (you can charge the jar however you see fit)

-I cleansed the sim card in the morning, removed the circuit board from the jar, and put the sim card back into the board

-Finally you just cary it around with you and let it help you soak up information!

May the Moon Light your path!

Everything good for you

Maka’s Black Blood Dress

⭐A Soul Eater based spell for protection

Needed: 🌑 One jacket (preferably black) 🌑 Two black tea lights 🌑 One piece of Tiger’s Eye, Citrine, or Lapis Lazuli

Place the candles on the ends of your jacket’s sleeves. The stove should be placed in your hood or by the collar. Light the two candles, starting with the one on your dominant hand’s side.

Visualize a black liquid seeping into your room from cracks in the walls or from under the door. It crawls over to your jacket and soaks into the fabric.

Blow out the candles. If there is wax on your sleeves it is okay to remove it, but complete the spell first. Put your jacket on and cross your arms over your chest. Envision your ‘soaked’ jacket hardening into a shield.

inspired by jk rowling’s “ Felix Felicis “, a potion-drink to bring you luck

“One tiny bottle of Felix Felicis,” said Slughorn, taking a minuscule glass bottle with a cork in it out of his pocket and showing it to them all. “Enough for twelve hours’ luck. From dawn till dusk, you will be lucky in everything you attempt.”
