Que's Book of Resources

Hey there, my witches!  I decided to put together a 30 Days of Witchcraft Challenge that you can answer by photograph, blog post, or both!  This will also be hosted on my new Instagram account, so you can participate there as well! (Follow @saltwaterwitchery on IG!)

I have included some ideas below to help get you started.  if you participate in the challenge, let me know!  I can’t wait to see what you all come up with!

I’m super happy with how these are turning out.

In order from left to right, we have:

- Matching set of 8” and 10” blue and natural beeswax, 10” purple and orange taper, 10” natural beeswax taper, 4.5” orange chime with nettles and mullein for communication, 4.5” dark purple chime, three 3” travel altar candles.

8” = 4.5 hours

10” = 5.5 hours

3” = 1 hour

Just a couple of things I’ve noticed while looking at some charts

1st house stelliums have a certain presence in photographs and are quite photogenic

1st house stelliums also might not come off as their rising sign and don’t relate to it strongly. They also seem to be at odds with who they are and tend to reject/second-guess themselves a lot.

Leos with strong Virgo influence are the biggest perfectionists and extremely self critical

Fire moons in fire houses (1st, 5th, 9th) tend to embrace their inner child more freely than most but hate being called childish

Libra mars are not pushovers. They can and will be confrontational if they feel that they or their loved ones are being taken advantage of

Sagittarius risings have the biggest smiles and laughs which light up the whole room :D

Count on a Virgo mars to have class notes saved up and organized years after taking classes

Gemini risings will find things to talk about with anyone about anything. Leave them alone for 5 mins with strangers and they’ll know their life story/what they’re doing right now

People with a lot of square aspects in their chart struggle a lot in their early years with inner conflicts but ultimately they have an immense amount of drive to reach all their goals

Neptune is a planet of illusion and confusion. It is very mysterious place in our chart. It brings people a lot of disappointment due to Neptune’s very enigmatic nature. I believe the house our Neptune is placed holds a great potential that is hidden there and takes time to fully understand. What makes you confused and vulnerable with a little bit of work can also be a source of your great strength. 

The House Neptune is shows when you are the most vulnerable. This is a place of confusion, place that you have always a problem to tell the reality from illusion. The way to master your Neptune placement is to recognize your weakness and allow yourself to be vulnerable in this area. Be aware of what brings you confusion. Awarness is your greatest weapon. This is what Neptune truly wants to tell you. Be aware.

1st House - be aware that your weakness lays in your perception of the world and yourself. You may feel lost in life, confused about how you see the world. You may not see it for what it is and people may see you not who you really are. Don’t idolize this world. Don’t idolize your views. Don’t let your artistic nature cloud your judgment. Also, don’t be afraid to be emotional. Don’t be afraid to show your sensitivity. Use amazing psychic gifts you have. Finding confidence in life may be hard for you since your perception of self is delluded but it doesn’t mean it’s impossible. You just have many sides to yourself and you can’t be defined with one word and that’s okay. Be a chameleon; don’t limit yourself to one. Also, your natural optimism can make you a little bit naive so you need to watch out for people because some of them will have no problem using your good heart against you so take care of yourself and trust your intuition more.

2nd House - be aware that your weakness lays in your self-worth. It is what brings you the biggest confusion. You may feel vague about your self-worth. You may feel confused about material things. You need to understand potential that lays in your soul and the practical use of your imagination. You also need to understand that material things are not the biggest evil on the world. They are also not your biggest need. It will always bring you confusion. Find balance!  Be aware of your money (abundance or their lack) in your life. Use them constructively on what you really need. If you can, make your art to give you profit.

3rd House - be aware that your weakness lays in the processing of your words. It can often feel like the words you are looking for in your mind are hidden behind a mist, like they are there but you can’t find them and use them. You can also feel at the moments that you are a better story-teller than everyone else in the room and desperately try to prove it. Don’t idolize the power of your mind but also don’t ignore it. Be aware that you can get an access to a beautiful inner encyclopedia but still you need to make an effort to check yourself while using it. Be aware of the voices you will hear, ideas you will get and be open to messages from your head but be selective of how you will use them. You can take people to other dimensions with your you words, you are highly creative but you must be aware that you need to check things twice before saying them because sometimes your words can be really confusing. Focus on making yourself more clear while speaking, avoid using unecessary words. 

4th House - be aware that your weakness lays in your roots. Family always can bring you a lot of confusion. Many times you don’t see your family for who they really are, you probably idolize them a lot just like your chilhood. You may feel truly lost at your core, not knowing who you are and being too dependent on your roots. Truth is, that yes,  you can become emotionally independent person who is also able to help others to see through their own delusions. You just need to make yourself your strong foundation and set clear boundaries with your family. Your imagination make them seem better that they really are. You need to remember that your home and people who make it are part of your life not the center. Family life will never be as perfect as you wish but it doesn’t mean it’s not going to be good. Appreciate what you can have.

5th House - be aware that your weakness lays in your vision.  You idolize everything. Romance, people, children, hobbies… Everywhere where you can express yourself and follow your vision of “something perfect”.  You just try to run from reality this way. Just be aware perfect love  or a child doesn’t exist. Express yourself artistically, yes, but don’t let your imagination cloud your judgment. Life here is not a Hollywood movie but it doesn’t mean it’s not beautiful. Use your imagination in your creations but don’t let it control your love life (and other aspects). You are extremely creative. Use it wisely.

6th House -  be aware that your weakness lays in working. You love to help others. Animals, people… Your service is needed but is also a place of your delusion. You may get lost in your job. You need to take responsibility and do your work in whatever you choose to but remember about taking care of yourself too. Also, you should pay more attention to deadlines. You can get lost so you need to remember about passing time and other details. You are really responsible and devoted, don’t overdo yourself but also try to look at yourself (especially your health) realistically. Getting a flu won’t kill you but don’t ignore it either. Keep yourself in check.

7th House -  be aware your weakness lays in your  relationships. Whether they are of romantic nature or platonic; you may appear as a very confusing person to others and others are like that to you too. You may have problem with recognizing people who have bad influnece on you, you may idolize them and you can be too dependent on others. There is always something very entangled in your partnerships and you need to recognize that and stop idolizing people in your life. You need to directly adress those issuses. There is a chance for you to see relationships with people clear, as they are. You will become more confident and more independent as a person. Just stay aware of your relationships and don’t let them define you.

8th House - your weakness is tied to taboo topics. You may become obsessed with sensitive topics like death and sex.  You may feel you lack understanding of those and  try obsessively to get information in those areas. You may feel confused and feel you are truly not living your life here on Earth because you may focus too much on matters connected to the other world. You need to be aware that  delving into dangerous matters with that kind of passion may not bring you what you want and just make you feel more lost in life. Use knowledge you gain in constructive way. Don’t hoard it, it can cause you more pain. Share it with others. Don’t idolize taboo. Focus on mundane things too. Come back from the dead, your world is here. 

9th House -  your weakness lays in your philosophy. You may feel confused about your beliefs and be easily influenced by others in this area. Whether you are more into spirituality or religion, any area involving higher realms seems to be bringing confusion to you. This also apply to higher education. You may have problem with finding out what you want to study and you can become perpetual student or reject idea of studying at all. You may have problem with describing your life philosophy and often change beliefs. You can become a fantastic teacher for yourself and others. You have great psychic abilities. Don’t let this confusion stop you from spiritual development. 

10th House - be aware that your weakness lays in your social position. You  feel confused about your position in the world you may feel lost on your life path and you may appear to others as this always indecisive person in those matters. Be aware that feeling of being lost in life happens to everyone. You need to remember about what you truly want to achieve and understand that it will take time. Don’t idolize achievement. Follow it but don’t forget about other important things in life. You will be at the top of a social ladder. You will inspire others to work hard for your goals. Just be aware that outer sucess is not the goal end in life.

11th House - your vulnerability lays in your sense of belonging.  Confusion is tied to your need to be a part of a group. You may idolize them a lot. You may idolize society a lot and see no flaws in how it functions.  You may also do that to your friends. You need to stop looking at people through pink glasses. Remember that humanity is flawed. Be aware of that  being a human means making  mistakes. You can be a strong individual who can do a lot of good for people and society but you need to remember about the fact that society is built from individuals who just like you, are only humans. Allow them to be.

I’m considering running a year-long witchcraft research challenge, but first I’d like to know who’s interested. It’d work like this:

Each month is assigned a topic. Before the month starts, I’ll release information about that months challenge. It’ll involve one task or assignment to complete each week (4 per month) at any time of your choosing. Most of these assignments will involve you posting your findings or final product under the challenge’s hashtag. The idea is that you can then go and read everyone else’s work and learn more that way (e.g. an assignment could be to research and post the properties of a herb of your choosing; you can then read everyone else’s posts to learn more without having to research thirty herbs on your own). I’ll be doing the challenge along with everyone else: the topics will be areas I know enough about to be able to guide the process, but I’ll be learning along with you.

I hope to structure this challenge so that it’s beneficial for all witches, regardless of their skill level. If you’re an expert on a months particular topic, you can drop out of the challenge until the next month. If you’re busy the first month, you can drop in on the second month, or catch up on missed tasks in your spare time. This challenge will be largely theory based, with a few practical components. I’m creating this because I’ve noticed that most of the witchcraft resources available on Tumblr are practical (spells, instructionals, etc.), and there is little attention paid to the why and how of witchcraft. If you don’t know why the spell you’re doing works the way it does, or how the various components affect it, then your craft is inevitably going to be less effective than it could be.

The topics I’m thinking are:

JAN: History of Witchcraft (covering both ancient and modern aspects)

FEB: Elemental Studies

MAR: The Wheel of the Year

APR: Meditation & Mind Skills (shielding, visualisation, etc.)

MAY: Divination

JUN: Astrology

JUL: Spellcraft

AUG: Green Witchcraft

SEP: Religions (a look at the other spiritual practices of the world to better understand our own)

OCT: Mythology

NOV: Locational Studies (how time, place and location affect magick)

DEC: Ritual Magick

Planetary expression in the houses differs slightly from sign expression. As I said previously:

Planet = What? Energy - what are you doing? Sign = How? Which way do you do it?

So here’s how the planetary influence of Mercury and its corresponding sign influence, Virgo, function in the houses.

mercury in the houses:

1st: You have intellectual vitality and alertness, and you communicate clearly and effectively. You see the world according to how you think. and you come off quite self-centered since you’re only concerned with how you think over others’ thoughts. Your mind is oriented both to the present and yourself. It is through the processes of communication that you define yourself and discover the world around you. Also indicates that your youthful appearance stays with you all throughout your lifetime.  

2nd: You would make a successful salesman or wheeler-dealer, since your mind focuses naturally on wealth and material subjects. You have your mind on your money and you money on your mind. You are very curious to understand the nature of the physical world, and it is through learning and knowing how something works that you feel secure. In order to learn and accept ideas more easily, you often need to write down your thoughts or make them visual.  

3rd: Your overall intelligence is well above average. You are curious and seek out all kinds of knowledge. You are adaptable, lively, restless and a natural communicator. You are observant and witty, and your mind literally teems with facts and opinions for which you rarely wait for permission to express. In fact, it is true to say that you have an opinion about everything. There may also be deep-rooted problems stemming from sibling rivalry. As a child, you learnt to read and write fairly quickly, and you may have a flair for foreign languages. .  

4th: You’re high strung and easily irritated. The past interests you, as does your own family history. History is a favourite subject for you. Your own memories are usually quite clear. You may prefer to do your studying at home, or even work from the home. Early in your life you may have experienced many changes of residence. Bickering and arguments may unfortunately emerge all too often in your home environment. If the Fourth House is taken to represent the father or father figure, then Mercury placed here means that you may have more than one father figure. You may see your father as being articulate, critical and quite tricky.

5th: You’re very fixed, straightforward, simplistic, and opinionated. You have a real knack for communicating with young people, and work well with them. You tell stories with flair, and your theatrical and dramatic side emerges when you communicate. Your bright, fertile and active brain seeks creativity through either the written or the spoken word. You make an excellent teacher, because you can keep concepts simple and clear, and also make learning a fun time.

6th: Your mind operates methodically, efficiently, and on a very practical level. You think things through logically and orderly, and are highly intelligent. Science and medicine are well-suited to your particular way of thinking. A lot of hypochondriacs have Mercury in the 6th, and as such, your state of mind is directly linked with your state of health and vice versa. You tend to worry a lot about your day-to-day work problems. You need to be mentally stimulated in your workplace and allowed to express your opinions. You need to watch the tendency to criticize too much.

7th: You’re very able at negotiating and arbitrating between people. In fact, you really need to communicate. Your favourite pastime is assessing and trying to understand how other people’s minds work and what they are thinking. You place great importance on intellect, so you tend to judge people according to their intellectual standards. You may choose a partner who is cleverer and younger than you. You are very interested in other people’s problems and make a good listener, even though you may simply be motivated by curiosity.

8th: Anything mysterious or secret intrigues you and you are quite skillful at drawing out other people’s secrets and working out what their true motives are. You have the ability to communicate and share with other people anything which is obscure, profound or subtle. However, when it comes to yourself, you tend to keep your secrets and motivations to yourself.  

9th: You are fascinated by knowledge and become the eternal student. You continually seek to broaden your horizons through knowledge, but paradoxically you can also become fanatical and dogmatic. You are tempted to discard facts that don’t agree with your beliefs and only keep those that do. Nonetheless, you have a curious and lively mind that is forever seeking answers. You want to know the answer to life, the universe and everything. You want to pass on what you have learnt to others. You want to both teach them and inspire them. On a side note, you seem tom have verbal battles with your relatives, more often than not.

10th: Your agile brain produces bright ideas, and you appreciate the role that education can play in furthering your career. You would like to appear as a clever and educated person and will use your knowledge to get the most out of career opportunities. You’re often looked at as being a speaker or a writer, and are seen as a verbal authority in your chosen field, able to communicate your ideas effectively. You perceive your mother as either fickle and changeable, or alternatively as intelligent and expressive in life, and you try to emulate her.  

11th: You have an original and electric mind which respects truth and reason. Your ability to think objectively and impartially gives you foresight. You enjoy debate and believe that any problem can be solved by discussion and negotiation. Many of your friendships are based on a strong intellectual rapport, and you love to bounce your ideas off your friends and get a stimulating exchange of ideas flowing. There is a strong humanitarian and philosophical bent to your mind. Can also indicate that your sibling is your best friend, or you treat your best friend as your sibling.  

12th: You are kind, charitable, creative, and humorous, but also lack confidence (especially in your ability to communicate) and are a little secretive. It is a contradiction of your character that although you are shy, you don’t mind appearing or performing in public. You may be attracted to the entertainment world, as well as psychology, mysticism and the occult. You suffer from muddled thinking and negative thoughts in particular, and the back of your mind is based on your experiences in the past. These memories may distort your perception of present events. It’s often difficult for you to know whether your own thoughts truly are your own.

virgo in the houses:

1st: You have an enviable quality of physically not looking your age. You’re generally very well-put together, and you have an exacting air of authority about you. You find it easier to be with those you consider inferior than with equals. You have a greater sense of power than you are able or willing to express. You move quietly, but with purpose. You overcome yourself through self-transformation. Your daily rituals are sacred to you and your sense of self is complete when you elevate the ordinary and do a job thoroughly, rendering everyone else useless.

2nd: Your resources are used for others. You’re practical and down to earth when it comes to spending money. You’re very practical with your finances and can spend lavishly as well as save for a rainy day. You thrive on service to others, and your self-worth is strengthened by your ability to help people when they turn to you for guidance.

3rd: Your head and your heart can either clash or work together, depending on how secure you are with yourself. Your early life might have consisted of low-self esteem issues and/or an inferiority complex. You love to tell stories, and you go into great detail in your storytelling. You have what it takes to be a great writer. You are a bundle of nervous energy and can wear yourself out mentally getting caught up in inconsequentials. 

4th: You’re a born historian. You’re rather fussy and a perfectionist, especially when it comes to your home; you feel that there’s a place for everything, and everything is in its place. You can’t see the forest for the trees and have problems letting things go. Your naggy, touchy, nit-picky nature can be an amazingly difficult temperament to deal with. You can be a bit two-faced and might be labeled erratic and unstable. You can be rather petty, but when a big crisis happens, you do rise to the occasion.

5th: When it comes to affairs of the heart, you have a difficult time, since your tendency to analyze and criticize often causes trouble. You want to enjoy affection without having to work for it, then wonder why love fails you. You need mental companionship and love to debate and have discussions. On the surface, you’re flexible, but deep down, you stubbornly stick to your own ways until you decide to change.

6th: You’re great at mechanical work and take to it like a duck to water. You act instead of talking about acting. Though impatient with others, you readily give help when asked for it. You’re interested in health, so you tend to eat healthily, diet, or engage in some sort of exercise. You rarely get sick, but when you do, it’s usually a serious issue, and you can be irritable and cantankerous. You’re capable of a lot of hard work, to the point of exhaustion. You’re rather unsentimental, and have a gift for research and are rather brainy, focusing on the details of things.

7th: You tend to choose a mate who is .in one way or another. inferior to you. Charity cases and underdogs appeal very greatly to you, and you feel as if you can “fix” or help them. You tend to be a doormat (or a martyr, to put it kindly), and seek out partners that bring you pain. You’re only really happy with someone if your have something to complain and feel miserable about. If you marry, you marry a very critical person who’s a projection of your own critical personality. You might have two marriages, with your second being happier than the first. Nonetheless, you serve your mate and aim to please.

8th: You have the highest potential to be destructive with your criticism than anyone else. You may be good at sex, but you will likely have difficulties in your sex life due to your hypercritical nature. You have a very practical approach, though, when it comes to other people’s money. You deal with death pragmatically and are the type to get your house in order so that any loved ones you may have can deal smoothly with your transition.

9th: You have a sort of skepticism where religious matters are concerned. You’re the type of prison that needs concrete evidence in order to believe something. You might do a good deal of traveling, but it would mostly be for business. You have a practical approach to life that is very much centered on the “here and now”, and the grass is not greener on the other side. Because of your intelligence and interest/aptitude for higher education, you would make an excellent teacher or even professor.

10th: You’re as keenly and ruthlessly critical with yourself as you are with others. You intensely dislike being wrong and are apt to rationalize and justify everything. With your career and your public image, you have a need to be seen as perfect and above reproach. You are someone who serves others for the expectation for being served in return. You like doing good only if you’re being publicly recognized for it. You would make a very good teacher. You might have two careers in your life. 

11th:  When you serve others and forget yourself, you are truly majestic and dynamic, because you are willing to help the underdogs in life. You’re great with animals, and would make an excellent veterinarian. There is a very strong inferiority complex that’s not apparent on the surface. You are far more shy than people think and shun crowds or large groups of people, finding them uncomfortable.
