Is it safe for the environment to bury coins?

I wanna bury a cupro-nickel coin for a spell, but I don't know if it's bad for the environment to do so.

Please advise me

Giggles of course!

My favourite things are:

- Rocks and other shiny things I pick up outside! You can think of these like crystals, as all rocks are basically minerals anyway !! They also connect to the earth

- Different types of rocks can be used for different types of intentions (river rock for water and such)

- Forage around, basically the first point again but anything can go on an altar. I personally love sea glass and such

- Look at local folklore, what stuff around has properties you want to align with? For example hagstones are important in our folklore so we use those a bunch and every one of our altars has one

- Buy some air dry clay, you can make votive offerings and statues out of it! Usually costs around $13 for stuff that dries like ceramic instead of foamy

- Repurpose things you already have, old tshirt? Use it as an altar cloth, old plastic bowl you have no use for? Use it as an offering bowl

I love using LED candles, these work on a budget as well as not being a health risk to pets and such! I see it working in the same way, you’re still creating a spark

URGENT POSSIBLE SW PLEASE HELP

Okay, so my partner and I just moved into a mobile home/trailer. We signed the lease on the 20th, started moving in the next day. The trailer is one of the only ones still standing after tornadoes in December. Today we had another tornado and lost a tree outside of the backyard. Otherwise everything else is fine other than us being without power.

My partner smokes and goes on the back porch to smoke. It's 9:00 pm here, it's dark, my partner went out to smoke.

They had just let my dog in (we kept an eye on her, we know 1000% it's her) when they started to hear a whimpering. At this point it's been at least 10 hours since the tree fell and there hasn't been any whimpering at all until this moment.

They have me come listen and sure enough. It sounds like it's about a football field away but we both feel as if it's right outside our backyard. Without any rustling or anything it sounds like it's right next to the stairs of our back porch. It's louder, and more desperate. We immediately went inside and shut and locked the door. We checked on my cats and they were acting normal then we promptly locked the front door, top and bottom. The back door deadbolt doesn't lock but we put a mattress in front of it.

My dog isn't growling or anything but she is paying close attention to the back door. Occasionally she does the same but directed at the front door. We've grabbed our flashlights and have them by us but what do we do? I'm about five minutes away from a panic attack and I'm seriously worrying. What do I do? We know not to go outside or whistle at dark but what can we do to ensure we stay safer?

Important information, when my partner first heard it they got chills and immediately went into fight or flight mode without knowing why.

Also important to note, a neighbor's dog down the hill from our backyard starts barking like crazy whenever the whimpering is going on.

Please, please help. My mom's going to come in the morning to help us ward our property and we *have* saged the house (twice) since moving in.

I’ve been practicing for a long time but have kind of fallen out of ritual practice within the past few years. I mostly do more “relaxed” spiritual practice nowdays (herbalism, meditation, hypnosis, affirmations, journaling, ect.) but am looking to get back into more ritualistic practice.

Most of my study in recent years has been focused on traditional “high” magic (Golden Dawn, ect.) and Im used to doing things like the LBRP, but im looking for more normal magick spells.

What are your favorite places to find spells? What are some of your favorite spells that have worked? I always used spellsofmagic.com but idk if thats even up anymore or how outdated it is 😭

I’m currently looking for spells related to money, luck, beauty, fame, and finding a job/getting new clients. If you have any recommendations, I would love to hear it!!

Thanks beautiful witches and blessed be to all 🤍
