Close the now filled machine and roll it twice to pack in the herbal mix. Then introduce the rolling paper into the machine with the glue edge out. Then roll the machine towards yourself. Step 5:
Once the paper is almost fully inside lick the glue edge then finish rolling the machine. Step 6:

You can draw sigils and spells on the rolling paper to add power, make cigarets with certain magical intentions.

Source: {Earl Mindells Herb Bible} , [cunninghams encyclopedia of Magical Herbs],( the rodale herb book) [ green Witchcraft by Ann moura] For additional magic, you can wright sigils on the inside of the rolling papers to activate them. You can make a protection mix, a divination mix, and many more.

These are a few ways you can use herbal cigarettes in witchcraft. :)🔮

- you can draw sigils onto the paper to release your intent/ activate the sigil. - you can combine the magical properties of the safe to smoke herbs together and make the cigarette an instant spell, that will activate when you smoke it. - you can use color magic by choosing a certain colored paper when rolling your cigarettes - you can use them as smoke offerings to the gods - you can make mixes for warding away spirits

I’ve been smoking herbal cigarettes lately, as well as mixing herbs into my bowl when I smoke cannabis! I wanted to write a little post about my favorite smokable herbs, I am not super experienced so these are mainly just my current favorites! 

For me, smoking is a great grounding and centering exercise. The deep breathing and visuals of the smoke really help me calm down during tough times. 

🌹Rose: Rose is my favorite flavor for smoking, it adds a lovely aftertaste to whatever you mix it with. Rose is mainly used in love spells, making it useful for self love as well! 

🍃Mugwort: Used for divination and lucid dreaming. For me, it puts me in a dreamy, hazy mood. It amplifies your psychic abilities, making it easier to astral project, connect with a higher power, and more activities requiring an open mind. 

🌸Lavender: Calms and relieves stress, lavender is also used in spells that involve love. Smoking lavender is great for a mix of aromatherapy and breathing exercises for stress relief. Breathe in, take in the smell and taste of the lavender, and breathe out any stress or negative energy. 

🌼Chamomile: Relaxing, relieves stress, promotes restfulness! Chamomile relaxes the mind and body, helping to melt away anxiety. If you have trouble sleeping, try smoking chamomile with a base mix (mullein/red raspberry/etc) to calm you down before bed!

🌿Mint: Smoking mint makes me feel so clean! It clears out your respiratory system and leaves a lovely taste behind. In spells, mint is used for healing and purification. 

My favorite mixes:

Lavender, chamomile, mugwort, mullein for good rest

Chamomile, rose, lavender, cannabis for general calm and stress relief

Mint+ anything

popular demand bringing this from my private stash to my etsy shop. ((((this is one of my standard blends. a base of damiana (uplifting, relaxing) & mullein (restorative action on the lungs) with raspberry (for taste & body), skullcap, marshmallow root (these two relaxing herbs blend well with damiana), and peppermint (just a pinch for flavor).))))

Did you know that you can receive divine guidance as you rest?

Astral travel is an interpretation of an out-of-body experience that assumes the existence of an “astral body”; separate from the physical body but still attached by a silver thread of light and capable of traveling far from the body. Astral projection or travel denotes the astral body leaving the physical body to travel in an astral plane. It can be a very moving experience and one that can change the rest of your life. You can also meet other Astral projections while traveling.

I have made a list of herbs and stones that will help guide you in your preparation for Astral Travel. ((Request more free herbal tea and smoke blend recipes from me if interested)

Mugwort ~ considered the Nature Witches best friend in dream magick. Its powers are prophetic dreams and psychic powers. She aids in astral projection by protecting travelers. She helps to support the immune system and helps with menstrual cramps.

Valerian Root ~ known for its ability to induce sleep and help people with insomnia fall asleep faster. It can be used to have incredible prolific lucid dreams as well too! its been said to help you treat joint pain and headaches as well as depression.

Mullein ~ wards off evil spirits and nightmares while you sleep.

Peppermint ~ can support dream quality and can make the scene more vivid and ‘alive’.

Chamomile ~ lovely, gentle, calms the nervous system + smooths digestion

Passionflower ~ peaceful, calm + helps you to relax an overall supreme relaxing herb, one that puts an active mind and body to ease.

Damiana ~ lust, sex magic, attracting love, open chakras and increase psychic abilities

I took on smoking later on, in life as in my practice, and only ever do it for magical or ritual purposes. Mostly, I would say it is to feed the spirit-nature. It is an acknowledgement, a recognition, as well as an offering. The act takes some effort from me, and is not without its consequences. I perceive it as a sort of sacrifice. I make my blends myself, with plants I can control the provenance of, and am fairly partial about the taste and smell of the smoke - hence why, from a recreational perspective, I’ve also been quite fond of certain flavored cigarillos. The whole endeavor does not lack in irony.

I will smoke my personal recipes, all given (or rather, gifted) to me at propitious times, sweet knowledge pulled from the Wyrd. I compose them based on a ratio of 3, 2 and 1 parts - 3 for the base, 2 for the modifier, and 1 for the flavor.

Meet Me At The Crossroads encompasses Mullein, Mugwort, Raspberry Leaves, Marshmallow Leaves, Rose, Lavender and Peppermint. It is a general blend for versatile applications.

Once In A Blue Moon is made of Mullein, Marshmallow Leaves, Blue Lotus, Lavender, Aniseed and Sage. It is a calming and soothing mix.

The Forked Tongue is a strong cunning and spicy blend with a rich flavor, to command and compell. It is made of Hawthorn Berries, Wormwood, Rose, Cloves, Fennel, Licorice, Cocoa Powder and Snake Skin.

Lately, I have been more simple - mullein and vervain.

Isn’t that the most beautiful thing you’ve ever seen?

perhaps it’s a bit too warm for coffee potions, or hot chocolate magic, or even tea spells, but you still want to work a little magic into your day. infused waters! here’s just a couple of suggestions with fruit and even herbs, and their correspondences.

for all recipes, chop, cube, or slice all fresh ingredients. let them sit in a bottle of cool water for a few hours. the longer it waits, the more flavor infuses. afterwards, you can eat the fruit or infuse it again!

draw, paint, or sculpt a deity you worship and add it to your altar

use notecards to write down and categorize things you have for each basic intention (ex. write down all of the herbs, crystals, etc. you have for love, for money, etc. so you never have to sit and think hard on what you can use– it’s a quick-reference for yourself)
