A collection of free-use texts on witchcraft, magic, and related topics. Shared with Dropbox
Hello, witches! Since Iâm always harping on about learning your history and checking your sources, I thought Iâd help folks get a head start by compiling some source material.
To that end, Iâve started a Dropbox folder with a stash of historical texts on witchcraft, magic, and related topics. Nearly everything Iâve managed to find so far is public domain (thank you Project Gutenberg), with the exception of a very thorough herbal grimoire I found online some years ago and a book of witchcraft from the 1970s that appears to be out of print.
I will be continuing in this vein with future texts that I find. Everything will be public domain or cited to the source that it came from, in PDF format. I will NOT be including PDFs of any book currently in circulation with a copyright linked to a living author or estate. The point of this folder is that everything in it should be free for sharing and open use as research materials.
Below is the initial list of titles. I tried to include as many as I could find, with a focus on some oft-cited classics. I will be adding new texts as I find them.

Hey I saw your response to a different anon about tarot and I just wanted to say that many many many Romani who actually grew up with the traditions agree that white people shouldn't be using tarot. The history of tarot was indeed started as playing cards but Roma are the only ones who divined from it. There is still much descrimination today for doing traditional practices and seeing white girls living their dream doing tarot is extremely disrespectful. Seeing you call it racist for someone to call out CA was absolutely revolting. Please do not spread the hateful misinformation you are. Please listen to real Roma
Alright, I'm breaking character for this one because it involves me personally.
Again, as far as I know, saying tarot is endemic to romani culture is akin to saying moneylending is endemic to jewish culture.
As far as I am aware, the roma are not the only people to divine with tarot cards, and they did not invent the practice.
And again, the author of this blog is ethnically Romani. Although I am fairly isolated from the culture, I have access to people who arenât. When I asked my culturally romani family members about this, they said they had never heard of this concept.
Now, that doesnât inherently mean I am correct. I am completely open to the fact that I may be wrong about this. However, it does mean that I am going to have to ask for proof beyond âI saw some people say this somewhereâ because as far as I know, the earliest citation for romani people using tarot for divination people is from Elphias Leviâs Key of Mysteries (1861), and the earliest citation for divinatory tarot as we know it was from by Jean-Baptiste Alliette in approximately 1780, when he and Antoine Court published a guide for performing cartomancy with the Tarot of Marseilles.
Additionally, philosopher and tarot historian Michael Dummett noted, in his book The Game of Tarot. "it was only in the 1780s, when the practice of fortune-telling with regular playing cards had been well established for at least two decades, that anyone began to use the tarot pack for cartomancy.â
So, If you have a primary source on tarot being used for divination by romani people prior to 1780, Iâll have to reconsider.
"please listen to actual roma" also breaking character for this because I'm also Roma: all of this is correct and literally the first things you'll find in google, the history of tarot is VERY much known and catalogued, all of this is very easily and readily found. the idea that tarot is appropriating Romani culture is horrendously reductivist and racist, equating our past and our history to nothing more than 'spooky wooky occult fortunetellers'. The reason so many Roma used the tarot in history was because it was a way to make money on the road when we were legally denied the rights to property and settlement, and a card deck is portable as shit. Our history is one of making do with what was available to us, not one of some Mystical Otherworldly Expertise or whatever. Think for 2 seconds the racial ramifications of 'tarot is closed to Romani', please.
Another actual real-life Romani here to agree so hard. The idea that Tarot was invented by the Roma is patently false, and the idea that it is a closed practice is frankly risible. It became linked with us because fortune telling is a portable means of making a living, which was and remains important in eras and locations of nomadism, which was often forced on us. Thatâs it, thatâs all.
Not Roma, but I did just complete a 60 page research paper on the history of tarot (and the I Ching), and all of the above is correct as far as my research showed
Yes, the Roma people did read tarot for work, especially when there werenât many other jobs available to them. No, they did not invent the practice. Occultists in Europe did, several centuries after the oldest tarot cards we know about were made and spread across Europe as a card game (the oldest deck is from like 14th century Italy for a game called tarrochi, and in the 16th century, the Marseilles deck spread through Europe by the thousands as a game deck which at the time was called tarau, but I could have spelled that wrong)
In the 1780s, there was a revisionist movement among Occultists to find the âsecret originsâ of tarot which would unlock the secrets of the universe (sourced from Robert M Placeâs the Tarot: History, Symbolism, and Divination). This meant that every popular and mystical worldview/belief system at the time, including Kabbalah and Hermeticism, were attributed to tarot, and the Roma people were believed to have brought the decks to Europe from Egypt (which, as I mentioned...isnât true). The cards ARE believed to be descended from Chinese money cards (in the same family of games as Mahjong) and Arabic MamlĂťk cards, but those were introduced to Europe WAY before tarot was used for divination
Do Roma people have their own traditions and practices regarding tarot? Probably. Iâve heard that from at least one person claiming to be a Roma tarot reader. But I donât know for sure because if those traditions do exist, they would be closed to me so I wouldnât have access to them. The cards themselves are not closed, though
If you want books recs to start looking at the history of tarot, Placeâs book that I mentioned is great, as is Paul Husonâs Mystical Origins of the Tarot

Beginner Witch Tips
Fight a God. Just go for it, dude. Why not. If you fail, just keep trying until you either win or the god gives up and moves on.
Learn to cast some protective wards. That god has friends, and they're going to come for you. You best be ready.
Curse your enemies. Do it. Destroy them all. Make them pay. Everyone's like all "Don't start out by cursing people! Boo!" and I'm like, those people should get cursed too.
Try to befriend a Crow. You'll probably fail, but crows are neat.n Why not give it a try?
Pace Yourself. Like sometimes take a break, read a book, and maybe have some tea. You can't just sprint your whole way -- you gotta rest too.
Curse your enemies again. They are your enemies and they deserve it.
Buy a neat hat. Seriously, no one tells you to get a neat hat -- but you should. Neat hats are neat.
I don't know if this is satire or not but in case it isn't let me tell you sth:
1) please don't fight Gods! Like ever! EVER!
2) Learn cleansing banishing and protection
3) Don't do curses! If you don't do enough research, don't know what you are doing or you are not protected THEY WILL backfire
1. Sounds like something a god simp would say. I bet you subscribe to Apollo's onlyfans.
2. I mean, that's already in there, so I don't know why you're repeating it.
3. They won't, and if they do it's a lesson to do it right.
1) that is very disrespectful.
2) curses can be dangerous you shouldn't attempt them unless you know what you are doing
1. Don't slut shame Apollo.
2. Can't know what you're doing until you do things.
1) huh??? First of all when did I? Second of all calling me a godsimp and saying that I subscribed to a god's onlyfans is not okay just because I that you shouldn't fight Gods
2) that does not mean you should put your life in danger you know
1. You said Apollo having an onlyfans was disrespectful. Sounds like you're trying to pick a fight with him. It's okay, I heard he leaves his left side open when he jabs. You got this.
2. If you have harnessed magical power so strong you could kill someone with a curse, you don't need a beginner witch tip post on Tumblr.
3. Numbers are fun!
1) He is a God that's why is said it was disrespectful and He is also one of my Gods and I don't like at all what you are saying about Him
2) my problem is that you advice beginners to curse people. Curses are not beginner friendly
1. I don't respect gods. I fight them. Gods who demand respect are too needy, and I don't time for that. Like it's Friday night and I'm trying to go out with friends, and some god shows up nagging like "You don't make offerings anymore," "Why aren't things like they were when we first met," and "You just used me for my power for that spell!" It's the worst. Get on board and give Apollo a smack.
2. Curses are as beginner friendly as literally any other spell. Why on earth do you think they're more dangerous than anything else. Hell, just lighting a candle you can burn your house down.
1) Gods are not "needy" and they should be respected or at least respect the gods when someone tells you or indicates that they are important to them. And also for the to say that it means that you may have used them. Working with deities is a give and take relationship not just take from hour side you know. Btw if you don't wish to give offering anymore inform the deity that you are going to stop and that you don't want to work with them anymore
2) I can't understand how curses are beginner friendly. Beginners are just starting to learn the basics and curses are not a basic practise. If you are not careful with fire of course you are going to burn the house down
3) I am not continuing this "convo" I feel like it's pointless
1. I feel like you might not fully understand the Hellenic pantheon if you don't think like half of them are cocky bastards who need to get clocked in the face.
2. Why aren't they though? You fuck up a healing spell, you could hurt someone. You fuck up a curse... and nothing happens. "Whoops, I accidentally made my enemy have a great day!" is like the most benign side effect. "Beginners shouldn't curse" is a thing people keep repeating, but I don't think they actually consider the "why."
Like you've never given me a why.
This was an obvious joke post, but beginners should fuck up. That's how you learn. Every mistake I ever made as a young witch made me a better one. Every time I ended up out of my depth, I became more resourceful. The best, real advice I'd give any beginner witch is to jump into the deep end and try to swim. That's how you find out what you're ready for.
That, and find out if any herbs you're working with are poisonous or have any drug interactions.
But that doesn't sound cool to say.
Kitchen Witchery: Cookies
I absolutely love both making and eating cookies. Theyâre a rather versatile dessert and snack, and since the main flavor profile for most cookies comes from one or two ingredients, theyâre full of potential for adding in some magic. Iâve made up a list of some cookies and their possible correspondences, but the magical potential of cookies are definitely not limited to those Iâve listed.Â
Gingersnaps for successÂ
Snickerdoodles for luckÂ
Lemon Cookies for friendship
Chocolate chip cookies for love and vitality
Sugar cookies to sweeten a relationship or situation
Lavender Shortbread cookies for peace
Peanut Butter cookies for energy
Iâve only listed one or two correspondences for the cookies Iâve named, but they certainly have more than that going for them. A quick search can tell you what correspondences or associations apply to your ingredients. And it should be noted that cookies like shortbread and sugar cookies have some added potential because you can add different flavors to them (peppermint, orange, rose, etc.) to make use of whatever correspondence your situation needs.Â
One final note, Iâve been talking about making the cookies, but making the cookies yourself is not required for tapping into some cookie magic. You can put a little power and intention into a box of store-bought cookies before theyâre opened, and then really savor the flavor of whatever correspondence youâre tapping into to add some mindfulness to the enjoyment of eating the cookie.Â

When an old house razed,
And red brick remains,
Take it and crush it
In Our Old God's names,
Then lay it or cast it,
Or blow it about,
Shining tongue speak,
And rust flow about,
Above or below, within or without
On Tuesday, my shadow told me to go next door to the abandoned property and view the place closely. There, guided by his influence, my eyes went straight to the ground, where I located remains of red bricks once used for the house. The housritself having been razed to the foundation, this felt like an interesting opportunity. "On Tuesday, no less," I mutter to myself.
Reaching down, I grab as many pieces of brick as my hands can carry, and walk home. Once at my altar space, I begin grinding down the brick. As I do, memories of uncertainty and unsafe fill my head. I feel my heart beat pickup when thinking if my step-dad pinning down my mother on the couch. I feel my breathing increase when I recall being chased out of the house by my father. My mind pulls up the memories of being beaten by a babhsitter, told I will eat whatever I throw up.
And as I grind, I give these feelings to the powder. I pour them into the red brick, which pours it's own knowledge out to me:
As the house is spared from wind, so as the walls hold up the roof and the roof protects from rain, so too shall I protect and defend they who hold me on their person. I shall stand strong against strong enemies, and crush with martial force those who seek to overstep or harm. I shall, by my creation and then destruction, imbue any working with these same gifts. Use me in your witch powder, and I shall further grant it power and strength, the fortitude to do all you need and more. I break skulls that bash themselves into me in attempts to gain entry. I crush under my weight the curse and the jinx. I eat what remains into my rusty body, and keep it, transmitting it into force and form, until my form is released.
And so I grind it down well, knowing it will be a common material for my practice, informed of the uses directly from the spirit itself rather than by appropriating meanings from others.
Tumblr is the worst platform for selling things but who cares I made these and Iâm proud of them!Â
I love them. My little beans. Imagine useing these to add a touch of magic to a suit or something? Or just on some overalls- damn. The possibilities. This is me hyping up my own stuff because under capitalism I must. Anyway of you like them the packs are 10$! You can get them at Terrarium Treasures on etsy :)
Divination Drinks: Teas to Aid in Divining
Divination in all of its forms (tarot reading, tasseomancy; palmistry; pendulums, etc,.), can be quite exhausting and require large amounts of energy. These teas and tea blends will aid you in divining by enhancing your psychic power, and/or boosting your energy.
Tea Blends:
Psychic Tea (Scott Cunningham)
3 parts Rose Petals
1 part Cinnamon
2 parts Yarrow
Brew the tea, strain it and drink a cup before performing any form of divination as this tea enhances psychic awareness.
Tea for Divination (Moura)
1 tbsp China black tea
2 tbsp Lemon Balm
1 tbsp Rose Hips
1 tbsp Mugwort*
Brew the tea, strain it and drink either before divination or sip during/throughout.
Teas:
Jasmine Tea
Jasmine is said to induce prophetic dreams, which can aid in the growth of psychic power and psychic awareness making this tea a good choice of drink to be had before divining.Â
Drink 1 cup of this naturally sweet and fragrant tea before sleeping the night before you wish to divine.
Vanilla Tea
You can brew your own or buy ready-made Vanilla tea/tea bags. Vanilla enhances psychic ability and allows the benefits of this enhancement to be better felt and absorbed.Â
Drink Vanilla tea before and during any divination work to open yourself up and be more receptive.
Peppermint Tea
Peppermint tea heightens your psychic sensitivity, as well as working to clear the mind and sharpen focus. It can also be used to cleanse the mind and body of any negative energies beforehand.
This tea should be consumed before any psychic or divination based activities.Â
Some Other Things to Consider:
Some herbal tea blends may not be to your taste but this can be remedied by adding honey to taste.Â
Other herbs, such as Cinnamon, are used to add oomph to magick and can be added to tea blends and teas to do just that. If you donât want to add pre-ground and grainy Cinnamon to your drinks, you can use a Cinnamon stick to stir instead. This will add the oomph youâre after without altering the taste too much.
If you want to make your brew even more potent, stir clockwise. This adds positive energy to your tea.

Ways you can celebrate Yule that arenât just Christmas.
Celebrate on the correct days!:Â Yule is a solstice sabbat, which means itâs on the day before, of, and after the winter solstice*. Itâs NOT December 25th.
Hang all kinds of evergreens everywhere: Do you know why? Because while snow is very pretty at first after a while the never ending blinding white and brown and black starts to drive you slowly insane. Holly and Mistletoe are the two brightest green plants you could get your hands on during winter so of course they were everywhere!
Light a massive bonfire**:Â Itâs dark and cold and everyone is miserable. Burn some shit! If you arenât a heathen then Yule is about the rebirth of the sun god(dess?). Welcome that guy back with the best sun imitation you could get!
Leave feed out for Odinâs Horse: Kids would leave out hay or treats for Odinâs Horse(Sleipnir) to eat while he road in the wild hunt. A gift given means a gift must be returned and so Odin(also known as the parents) would leave treats for the kids. Yes this is where Santa came from.
Make winter clothes: Winter was the time when all the housework was done because, well, you canât plant when the field is under five feet of snow. Clothes were often made during this time and given to the family.
Welcome guests into your home: If there was one thing the Germanic people valued it was hospitality. Friend who has no were to go? Come on over! Your kidâs friend who comes from a tricky home? Why donât they stay a night or two. Everyone is invited!
Anything that still has Yule in the name probably comes from the original:Â Yule log, Yule boar, Yule goat. These are all from the original feast day.Â
Yule is a feast to celebrate the wild hunt: So make a feast!
And finally, throw one hell of a party***:Â Yule is a Norse holiday guys. There was no such thing as a low-key party in that culture. The majority of their myths can be summed up thusly; partying, beating up someone who ruined the partying, partying because they beat someone up. Have fun!
*These are the days I do it because celebrating for 12 days - 2 months is impractical.
**Donât be dumb with fire.
***Donât do anything illegal.
Iâm not a heathen, and also observe Yule very low-key because I still live in my parents house. If there is anything I missed or got wrong please add onto this!
My first little electroformed piece! Itâs not a lot but for my first piece I love it âşď¸ i still need to polish it and seal it but I am so proud of myself and canât wait to play around some more and make some cool things!

This is a spell I created for those who wake up early in the morning and want to cast a positive energy over their day! I work in the morning and always light a candle when I do so, so I started saying this spell and it really improved my morning hours. I hope this can be helpful to you!
You will need:
A candle of your choiceÂ
MatchesÂ
Good intentions!
Steps:
 Charge the candle by holding it into your hands and focusing your positive intentions for the day. You can imagine success during the day, a feeling of peace or comfort, etc. When you feel youâve thought of all you could, get your match.
You can use your match as a âpetition paperâ substitute for those who do not want to burn paper or for people who live in a dorm room (like me!). Using a pen or marker to write a word on a match that summarizes the energy you want to bring into your day today. I usually write âhappinessâ or âloveâ.Â
Strike your match and light your candle, visualizing your intent. Say the following spell aloud as you light the candle:
I bless this day ahead With this fiery candlelight With this flame, my intentions living With this match, they ignite From the moment I wake To the second I sleep May happiness be mine to keepÂ
 Burn the candle as you normally would and enjoy your day!
A Crash Course on Channeling
What is Channeling?
Channeling is allowing a nonphysical entity to use your physical body, in order to accomplish something. If that sounds, vague, itâs because it is. Channeling takes many different forms and intensity levels! Depending on how itâs done, it can be a medium-difficulty task or one of the most advanced things a spirit worker can do.Â
Types of Channeling
I once heard channeling described as a car ride, and in my experience thatâs very accurate. The car is your body, and youâre in it with an entity. Sometimes youâre in the driverâs seat, and the entity is in the back seat giving directions. Sometimes you or the entity is in the passengerâs seat: not calling most of the shots, but able to reach over and grab the wheel if needed. Sometimes youâre in the backseat watching the entity drive, and sometimes youâre in the trunk. In practice, this can take a number of forms.
Speaking on Behalf. This is the kind of channeling people do most often. The entity isnât controlling you, just feeding you lines which you can then relay to a third party. Youâre translating their messages to something other people can comprehend. If youâve ever answered a question for a spirit in their words, youâve done this.Â
Isolated Channeling. The entity takes control of just a part of the body, usually the hands or fingers. This is mostly used for things like automatic writing.
Assuming Form. Also known as consensual possession. The entity is in the driverâs seat, speaking and acting for themselves without your help. Some people will call this âhorsing.â
Possession. While the word âpossessionâ could technically cover all of this, within the spirit work community itâs usually reserved for channeling where the human did not consent beforehand. This doesnât necessarily mean in a violating way- I once had a friend who got possessed just long enough for an entity to yank them out of danger; once I was taken for just a moment to convey a quick (but very direct) message to a devotee, and snapped out of it right after.Â
Reasons to Channel
Everyone will have a different reason to channel but most of them fall under a few categories:
Helping Someone Else. Youâre channeling on behalf of someone who canât [easily] reach the entity themselves, in order to ease communication between the two parties. This is often seen with mediums contacting spirit guides and Ancestors.
Aid in Other Works. The entity is better suited to accomplish a certain task than you, so you let them take the lead. This is often seen with a familiar or spirit companion, someone the practitioner works with closely enough to know their strengths and trust them.Â
Easier Communication Overall. Channeling is a way to get really familiar with an entityâs energy. Again, we often see this with spirit companions and is more to bond than to achieve another goal. This would include automatic writing or letting a spirit experience things âthroughâ you.Â
Ritual Invitation. In some traditions, itâs common to invite deities to ritual events. Often, some type of channeling/possession is expected and is usually reached through ecstatic experiences. Itâs taken as a sign the deity has arrived at the party, either a sign the offerings have been received or a time for the deity to convey important messages.Â
Before-You-Begin Essentials
Know How To Protect Yourself. This is non-negotiable. Is your discernment tuned enough to spot an impostor or malevolent entity? Do you know how to end a session early? Do you know how to banish a spirit in an emergency? If the answer is no, then study up and return to channeling when youâre ready.Â
Know Your Entity. Channeling, by nature, puts the practitioner in an intimate and vulnerable place, so you donât want to give that access to an entity who may misuse it. If itâs your first time channeling, make sure you trust this entity with your life.Â
Donât Channel Alone. When you channel, youâre in an altered state of consciousness. Having someone grounded near you helps keep the session on track and keep you out of trouble should you need it. (Either by forcing an entity out if needed or just keeping you from climbing that tree.)Â
Other Notes
Itâll Probably Take a Lot Out of You. Have something ready to ground and rehydrate yourself after a session, and make sure you donât have anything high-demand planned after.Â
Start Small. No need to jump head-first into the most advancecd and high-intensity types of channeling! Start with automatic writing or painting and get used to the feeling and work your way up.
Donât Make It Weird. Basic etiquette still matters. Channeling is not a pass to give unsolicited messages to other practitioners, speak on behalf of their deities to them (unless theyâve specifically asked), or say hurtful things cushioned by: âWhat? It wasnât me who said it.â
Messages Are Rarely âPure.â This means everything is still filtered through you, the practitioner. Your values, morals, biases, and beliefs can inform what messages get through and how they are conveyed. Nobody wants to send out a message they disagree with, after all. This becomes less of an influencing factor with experience as one learns to hone their skill and let go more, but itâs important to always keep in mind. (If a channeling friend says a deity doesnât accept your gender identity or something, thatâs a good sign that really your âfriendâ doesnât accept it.)Â
