Tabitula The Witch

A green witch is typically a witch who specializes and focuses on natural materials and energies. They are often skilled herbalists and probably enjoys gardening. Like a lot. You might be a baby green witch or an experienced one. Maybe even an eclectic one, no matter what, all is welcome!

I am most certainly not entitled to knowing everything about green witches but I want to help out some people when stuck on not knowing what to research.

As always, enjoy!

The Green Witch by Arin Murphy-Hiscock

Witchy Self Care & Mindfulness🌻🌿

Never, ever trust anything claiming to be offering an “easy way out.”

Always be polite until everyone shows their hands.  You never know who or what you’re dealing with.

Never freely give out your name.

Bartering is usually alive and well.  See what you can trade.

Half of magic is belief.

Gods and magical beings can be hiding anywhere.  Keep your eyes peeled.

A little kindness can go a long way.

Nothing is ever really free.

The most powerful things come in little packages.

“Polytheism in Difficult Times“

(via

intaier

there are a few things you should know before you start being witchy:

magick is not something to toy with

this is serious, dont play around with it or you’ll get yourself hurt, make sure you know exactly what you’re doing before you attempt even the smallest things

there is no need to buy anything to be a witch

owning thousands of crystals but not knowing what they are and what they do is not effective (and can be dangerous, see previous point!) witchcraft is not a capitalist movement! no matter what you own, you are a valid witch, besides the strongest magick comes from things you have found / made in my opinion

magick is hard

its tiring, it takes effort and time, some things work first time, some things take longer, some things never work, magick is difficult, you cant just start performing spells straight away, even if you have all the ingredients in the world nothing will work if your not fully dedicated

magick is dangerous!

i know ive said this already but i cannot emphasise enough that this is a serious thing, you have to be careful! spells can turn wrong very quickly, you need to know how to protect yourself and how to cleanse yourself if something bad happens

I would highly recommend doing lots of research before physically practicing something, find what you’re drawn to and what your passionate about

magick for baby witches

colour magick

sigils

glamours

chants

sigils

tea magick

s i g i l s

bath magick

S iG iLs

meditation and breathing techniques

just make some sigils, you wont regret it
