✨new moon in cancer ritual from the other night✨

I started a new dream cycle so for the new moon I decided to set my intention and cast it into the ether. I carved it into my candle, lit it on fire in my cauldron, carved it into butter and consumed it into a soup and spoke it out loud!

I was a daily practitioner until I got pregnant. There were some immediate stark changes I had to make in how I practiced. For example, my bread and butter pre-pregnancy was spell candles and lighting incense. But incense isn't healthy for the baby, so I had to stop that. The smell of a dressed candle made me sick. Even a plain candle, snuffed out, used to be a pleasant smell, but became a stench. Dream work and Dream analysis are a big part of my practice. My dreams stopped being introspective narrative pieces about my inner world. They became a jumbled mess of snippets on any sensory input from the previous day. Very incohesive, and dream recall was non-existent. This stagnated my progress on my path, on how I was doing things before. However, pregnancy is a spiritual experience in itself. I took it as a time to pivot my focus in my practice for the time being. It was a little jarring at first. All my expectations of pregnancy were on physical, emotional, and mental changes. I honestly never considered it would impact my practice.

The deeper I got into the first Trimester, the harder it was to pull a card. I was still able to do divination through tarot. It took a lot of energy. This seemed typical, as everything is very tiring in the first trimester. My usual practice for New Moons felt draining instead of revitalizing. One of the hardest things for me to navigate was not feeling in touch with the moon phases. For the past two years, the moon has been an amazing guide in helping me understand my inner world and hormonal cycle. Pregnancy doesn't follow that cycle. I did not have a planet or a natural cycle I could use to anchor myself onto to be my compass in all the internal changes pregnancy brings.

I also felt a relationship shift with another guide, my physical body. I felt like a passenger held hostage. I was forced to ride, sit, and be quiet while my body was preparing and doing miraculous things. I did not feel like I was the one making a baby. I felt more like a vessel the force of life was crafting inside of. I wasn't a creator of life but a lucky bystander who gets to intimately witness the pain and beauty of the process. I was able to apply a lesson I had learned pre-pregnancy. My practice should be adaptable to my lifestyle and needs. Easily, I resorted to enchanting more mundane tasks to be connected, like wearing jewelry with certain intentions, placing certain crystals at my desk. Sometimes after work, I lie down for some meditative rest. I turned to kitchen magick and prayers.

I was curious how others had adapted their practice during this time. So I searched online. Online, I see a lot of other pregnancy posts describe having intense spiritual growth during pregnancy. Even though I saw some improvement in astral projection. Such as developing hearing in astral. I attributed this to just how much practice and how long I had been practicing. Only changes were what I was doing, but I didn't see "growth", just differences. I wasn't advancing, but I didn't feel I was regressing either.

The only other topic I saw was feeling a spiritual connection with the baby. Some posts talked about being instantly connected to the baby at conception or when they found out. There were so many posts saying how they knew they were pregnant even before receiving a positive test. I did not feel connected to my baby until the end of the first trimester. Even though I know I shouldn't have, I felt guilty. I pressured myself to feel shame for practicing for a few years and not knowing if I was pregnant. That I was a dream witch, and I was having dreams about having a girl. When in fact I was having a boy. Silly, I know. But it made me doubt my abilities and my practice a bit at the time.

It was not until I found out the sex, and I had a name, that I felt a connection. When I say connection, I do not mean I spiritually feel this baby, or that I can read his soul. I was just starting to care and slowly feel attached to my baby. My husband and I had been trying for a few months, and this was a very planned pregnancy. I mention this to give some context that even though I took the steps to have this baby. It still took time for me to develop care and attachment for my baby. Towards the end of the first trimester, I did have a cool meditation session where I could sense ripples in my energy field. I felt this was my energy and my baby's. I have not had that experience again.

Today i will share how to make elixir potion for lucid dream. The ingredient you can buy in store or maybe grow in street

Ingredient:

1. 5-15 datura seeds ( add how much you like, i can take 10-15 seeds with safe, everybody is different maybe you need 1-5 seeds, do research before using it because datura effect will in your system for 3-4 days so if you want use it better drink every 3-4 days so the toxic not add up) for dream vividnes induce

2. Mugwort for lucid dream

3. Holy basil for lucid dream (optional)

4. Honey (optional)

5. Alcohol (vodka, brandy etc) for make it last longer. More potent if use primum ens of Mugwort, jasmine, or lavender ; see real alchemy by Robert Bartlett for how to make primum ens, the ancient alchemical method to extract the higher self of the plant/herbs. in myth primum ens from melissa (lemon balm) make old people become young again, and so this plant have high values in eyes of modern 21st Century alchemist (not chemist but really real alchemist, yes those thing actually exist not just inner psychology and metaphore like most people including many witch believe). Although theres is danger in the process, one of alchemist i knew said you need "sweetened" the alcohol before use for extract the higher self of the plant, whatever it meant, he said he wont reveal the secret because feel cheating us from research and find its secret ourself, although he give hint about Jane Dubois class where how "sweetened" the high proof alcohol from wine are given. So if you have doubt just use vodka or many drinkable alcohol, wine good too.

Method :

First, step up datura, Mugwort, holy basil or your lucid dream tea in holy water (see my previous post, i give simple instruction for it) for 5-10 minutes.

Second, let it aside until achieve room temperature, meanwhile say your word of affirmation, incantation, and spell into the elixir water like : "creature of water be you elixir of lucid dream, make people who drink drop of you become so lucid and vivid in their dream i sealed this function unto you, so mote it be!"

For more potent in this step you can imagine a bright white star above your head, shining down into your zeal chakra (please search it in google for the chakra location) and into your hand, place your hand above water and see the light coming down into water from your hand and say the incantation above.

Third, store it in clean jar/bottle (sake bottle is look good for this).

Four, add alcohol and honey if you like, and shake it.

Five, this step additional, you can add crystal like moonstone, amethyst, quartz, rose quartz, or pearl into the elixir and bathe in moonlight (especially full moon) for more potency.

Lastly this is a spell i got from a balg forum, you can add this if you like :

Here is my update, To enhance Water Vibrations. With this chant you can besides raising the frequency of the water but seal its altered energies to the higher vibration : "Ayer Sekar Ümbriah Sekar"
