Heal the world spell
First off, this is not actually going to heal the world and make everything okay. What it is, is sharing. Doing something together. Taking small steps to heal ourselves, and assist others in their healing. This spell should come with some warnings. Because this spell allows energetic contact between witches who are performing this spell, it could be used by people with bad intentions. Make sure to use adequate protection, and never use this to send negative energy to anyone.
What you need are two things:
A living plant An empty bottle or jar.
Put the plant in a spot where it will be happy. Iâm sure you all know some plants desire more direct sunlight than others, so make sure to find a good spot for it. Next, fill your jar with rain water.
Once you have everything ready, prepare yourself to cast this spell. Sit down with the plant and bottle of water in front of you. Gently touch the plant while you say these words out loud or in your head: As nature, connected, as witches, united. With every day we grow, with every night we heal. This is for you, my brothers and sisters, with care and love we thrive.
You might be able to feel the network of connected plants, so youâll know this part of the spell has worked. Donât worry if you canât feel it, though.
As I said you do need adequate protection, so I suggest creating a shield around the plant to filter negative energy. Iâm sure you can all think of additional ways to protect yourselves. Now take the bottle in your hand and send healing energy into it while you say these words: By the brightness of the sun, by the freshness of heavenâs tears, I give you some of mine, and get some in return. Your job now is to take care of the plant. Refill the bottle regularly and use itâs water to send some healing energy to others. Some ideas: * Say kind words to the plant. We all have days when we really just need someone to be kind to us. * When youâre feeling down, talk about your worries and your problems. Someone else might have some extra healing energy to give. * Use the plant as a focus during meditation * Pick a plant with healing or protecting properties
If you post a picture of your plant and tag it with #HTWplant I will make sure to check that tag and see how well you guys have been doing! It will also give others a chance to see some of the others who are taking part in this.
What is a familiar according to you?
Over the years Iâve seen very differing opinions on what familiars or familiar spirits are. Some say they are an animal or pet that the witch has a special bond with. Others say they are a special kind of spirit or entity that the witch works with. Iâve even heard that familiars used to be created by the witch to work for them in the same way we use the fetch or servitor type of energies. So what is a familiar according to you? And why do you use the word familiar in this way?

Hello! I am very new to the witch community on tumblr. Could i simply ask for the blogs who are active and post about magick to like and reblog this post, so that I can follow them?
⌠Was a friend
I think I reblog this every time it comes up. I make paper stars and sometimes it does make me feel better
i never knew how to make paper stars, so i looked up for tutorials on youtube.
when iâm lonenly, which is translated to most of the time, i make them; green, yellow, pink, blue, white, purple.
and, believe me, itâs kind of a relief to make them. not only for the colors and cute shape, but also for the fact that the time i spend makin them i am entertained and donât have to think about my loneliness anymore.
i learnt how to make them like two months ago, by the way. and i have made over 300.Â
itâs awesome.Â
Iâve been wanting to see this story again.
This is for everyone. Guys, girls, both, neither, and more.
When youâre upset, make a star. When youâre stressed, make a star. I make them in school when the teacher yells at our class for being lazy or dumb. I make them at home when Iâm in my room, wishing someone would notice my feelings and give me comfort. Iâve always made them with whatever I had around, and write a number on each and every one because its therapeutic. I can see how far Iâve come and how many times I havenât given up.
Right now Iâm at around four-hundred and seventy, and it really puts everything into a perspective.
Thats four hundred and seventy times that I couldâve given up. Iâve gotten pretty close on some of them - scarily close, but every one of those stars is a reminder to keep pushing forward, because I wake up every day and on my dresser is a box full of stars, and when Iâm happy I think of how far Iâve come.
I think this idea should be passed around as much as possible. Its calming and distracting from and panic I feel. It gives me something methodical to do: Fold here. Fold there. Crease that line. There you go, Create. Produce. Make something solid and focus on it. Make another if you need to. Write a number. Fill up the jar, box, drawer.
And when youâre breaking and feel everything crashing down, you can look at your stars and think:
âSee? I made it through alright. I can give it another go.â
syndhdsalty
punkjackaboy Thanks babe â¤ď¸ #sweetesthusbandever
I finally found the original! Iâve reblogged this once years ago and never found it again, I am SO HAPPY đąđđđđ
I love this comic so much. And the stars ⌠I love making these things. Itâs a good way to keep your hands busy and your mind quiet when youâre in a lot of pain inside. Also, theyâre really flippinâ cute.
following all witchblrs that reblog âĄ
please reblog if you post witchy things like tips/spells or even just aesthetic please !! i need more blogs to follow âĄ
Reading A Candle
Watch your candles closely and learn to read them to help you with your practice.
The Flame
A strong flame:Â It means that your energies are raised. There is a lot of power behind your spell and little to no resistance. Indicates that all your power and energy is focused on your manifestation. This is a good sign. If a candle shaped into a figure is used and has a strong flame it means that whoever it represents is either angry, winning, or using authority over another. When their are two figures the candle with the higher flame has authority over the other person. Â Â
A weak flame: Indicates that the magick you cast is facing a heavy opposition and is a sign that you may need to recast your spell in order to overcome the opposing force. On a figure candle this may indicate that the representative may be loosing a battle or an argument.Â
A jumping flame: This indicates strong emotions. There may also be some sort of resistance against you. Maybe close your circle and bring your mind back to focus before continuing. It may also mean an explosion of energy. When two figure candles are being used it often means that an energetic or a heated argument is taking place between them. Â
A noisy candle: Indicates a conversation. It may may that a spirit is trying to send you a message or get in contact with you. The louder the noises get the more urgent communication must be.Â
The flame catches something on fire: Someone one may be using malicious magick against you. Â
A clean even burning candle: Means your spell and manifestations are likely to come true.
Fast Burn:Â The results of your spell will happen quickly.
Flickering Flame: If there is no breeze then it means a spirit is near by. If it is a devotional flame it means you were able to get in contact with your deity.
Cannot blow the flame out: A spirit may not be finished its conversation with you or you did not complete a spell. The spirit needs to complete its work, something may be may in the works that you do not want to interrupt.Â
A flame goes out while burning: This means the spirits cannot help you and the answer you seek is already determined. Â
The Smoke
Black smoke/soot: Your energy and magick is being blocked. Negative energy is being sent your way, whether as a curse or hex. You may soon be faced with tough challenges and a hard road ahead of you.Â
Smoke wafts towards you: It means your call will likely be answered or your spell has been cast successfully. You will get results quickly.
Smoke wafts away from you: You must work harder in order for your calls to be answered.
Watch the direction the smoke wafts: East - Something powerful is assisting you, North - You are ready to begin your ritual and get results, South - The spell will be successful, West - A powerful interference from an outside force.
Smoking Candle: Negative energy is being burned away.
The Wax
When a candle leaves wax residue: Your spell may need to be repeated.
Look for symbols in the candle wax, like reading tea leaves.

It feels so good to be back at home. Now Iâm surrounding myself in health spells because everybody around me is sick đˇ
Actions in Witchcraft
Just like each herb and crystal has certain properties and strength, so do actions taken during rituals and spells. When writing spells it is important to include the proper actions to make sure your spell is as effective as possible.
Burning - Burning an object is a common practice in spells and rituals. Fire is considered a cleansing and activating force.
If you want to destroy somethingâs influence, burn it and dispose of the ashes away from your home.
If you want to set something into motion, burn objects related to the situation to ash.
If you want to activate certain energies, burn objects related to those involved.
If you are performing a curse or hex, burn the object in the flame of a candle.
Burying/Abandoning - A Witch might bury and object for many reasons. They might want to put something to rest, perform a slow spell, or banish something. There are different ways in which one can bury an object to accomplish a desired outcome:
If you want to keep something close, bury the object in your back yard.
If you want to attract something, bury the object under the front door step
If you want to disperse something to a distance, throw the object into a crossroads
If you want to fix an influence, inter the object in a five-spot pattern
If you want something to work by means of spirits, bury the object in a graveyard (but donât disrupt those buried there!)
If you want to hide somethingâs point of origin, conceal the object in a tree
If you want something/someone to work by stealth, hide the object in clothing or on objects
If you want an influence to begin or strengthen, throw the object East
If you want an influence to end or weaken, throw the object West
Rubbing - Rubbing an object can be the easiest and most immediate way to experience witchcraft. Transferring and garnering energy from objects can be done through physical contact with an object.
If you want to put energy into an object, rub it with your left hand
If you want to gather energy from an object, rub it with your right hand
If you want to bring positivity, rub clockwise
If you want to bring negativity, rub counter clockwise
If you want to use crystals to heal, rub the appropriate stone on the effected part of the body.
Soaking - Water is one of the main elements used in witchcraft. It comes in many forms with many different properties and uses.
If you want something to move away and sink, throw it in running water
If you want somethingâs influence to rise and fall cyclically, float it in a tidal estuary
If you want to protect or cleanse something, soak an object in rain water
If you are focused on your personal goals, soak your object in sea water
If you want to bring about transformation, soak your object in snow/melted snow
If youâre trying to make a wish come true, soak your object in well water
If you want to banish, soak your object in harbor water
Bitch moan
Fake tumblr witches annoy me to no endâŚ.
Treating Wicca like a fashion statement. Cause they like the âgoth aestheticâ that is portrayed in popular mediaâŚ.
Emoji spells are just disgusting. kids playing around cause they want be edgy. Crappy made up spells and attention whoring like crazyâŚ
Wow.. like⌠I know itâs hard to let people enjoy things⌠but I feel like Iâve seen this post via an earlier just as salty generation who were coming from books to tumblrs for their spells.
This post just screams elitist⌠Gods forbid people are different and practice things differently than you.
If people wanna use emoji spells, let them.
The dynamics of astral travel
Here Iâm going to discuss how to figure out where you are in mind-space (the astral), how to travel to another location, and the dynamics thereof. Please note that this guide is not about etheric travel (out of body experiences in the physical plane) but rather focuses solely on astral travel (out of body experiences in the personal and/or collective unconscious).
When we travel on the physical plane distance is measured in length, measuring physical space between two objects or locations. On the contrary in the astral you can be walking for an eternity yet only cover a tiny bit of territory, or maybe none at all. The first difference between astral and physical travel is that in mind-space distance is measured by affinity or sympathy rather than the literal distance between two locations.
Any idea or concept can create a whole reality in the astral, bigger than anyone could explore in one lifetime. This means that even if you are travelling down a road you may not actually leave the astral space of that concept. The reality you are travelling through will have doorways to other astral spaces which are in affinity with where you are. As an example if you are travelling through the idea of âPleasureâ then there might be objects, entities, or places within this pleasure reality which will lead you to âSexâ, or âVideo Gamesâ, or maybe even âLazinessâ.
The way to tell where you are in the astral is simple. Everything in the reality you are seeing will be a correspondence of the idea you are travelling through. If you donât have a magick symbol set of correspondences then this might be a bit trickier and will require introspective analysis of each object around you. Having such a system of symbols learned will allow you to quickly orient yourself.
For example if you have memorized the correspondence tables in Liber 777 and you find yourself in a scarlet red, pentagonal room with an orange roof and Horus holding a ruby then you right away know your current astral location is the Sephira of Geburah. If I saw a boat made of amber powered by a furnace then I can guess it will lead me to the path of Cheth (connecting Geburah and Binah).
As a less systematic example I could be travelling through the reality of âLoveâ. There are many couples and families around me, and everyone seems to be enjoying themselves whether they are with someone or alone. Everything I see around me is beautiful and passionate, Eros (the God of Love) soars above in the skies. I find two stores side by side. From one people are walking out with delicious food, beautiful clothes, awesome trinkets and electronics. From the other come out lovers more enamoured with eachother than any Iâve seen before, theyâre literally glowing with love. If I enter that door then I will enter the world of âSpiritual Loveâ, and if I enter the other then I will be taken to âMaterialistic Loveâ. In the latter I might end up finding a âdoorâ leading to the idea of âMaterialismâ and have travelled from Love to Materialistic Love to Materialism.
These âdoorsâ arenât always so obvious. In the reality of âLoveâ I might see an ex who had traumatized me with abuse and in one glance I begin to transition into the world of âFearâ. Simply focusing on an idea can project you from the astral reality you were in and into the idea you were focused on. Stray thoughts or concerns might create tunnels and pull you into their realities. Focus and clarity are essential in the beginning stages of developing your ability to accurately navigate through mind-space.
Learning how certain ideas or concepts affect others allows for a greater scope of control. As an example the various banishing and invoking pentagrams are all mental constructs (concepts) that an adept has charged with a certain meaning. Once they are built up in hir personal unconscious then the adept can use these symbols in the astral to create the corresponding effect.
If something, whether a situation or an entity, is getting out of hand in the astral then one can use a banishing pentagram which correlates to the element which would rule that entity or place. One could also invoke a God or an Archangel that can resolve the situation.
The above example is simple yet common, but the number of interactions between various symbols and the results of those interactions are far beyond the limit of simply banishing and invoking. Put a flaming sword in a cup and a creature might appear. Paint a mirror red then walk through it like a portal. Take your astral heart and make of it a rose, then offer it to Babalon.
The changes we make here in mind-space will reflect back in our own selves. We can effectively reprogram aspects of ourselves and grow to deeply understand the structures within our unconscious. All through the alchemy of symbols and ideas, as described above.
It is rumoured by the whispering lips of the adepts that if one fashions their mind and personal unconscious into a structure capable of receiving the divine then you will find access to the collective unconscious. Here, in this greater mind-space, you can learn of things well beyond the limits of the self. It is rumoured to hold secrets of nature and divinity, of all men as well as all Gods and Goddesses.
But that is a conversation for another post.
The Importance of Iron in Witchcraft
So, I got a lot of really positive feedback about my post about salt in witchcraft, so hereâs another one just for you about iron!
Iron, like salt, has been used for many thousands of years as a potent tool in the practices of witchcraft. Iron is one of the most abundant metals in our planet, and is also a really great metal for making into tools. Itâs tough, hard, ductile and with a high melting point that makes it ideal for situations in which you might need a tool to work under extremely hot conditions. Itâs also one of only three ferromagnetic metals (along with nickel and cobalt), making it an essential part of most magnets and compasses.
In astrophysics, iron is extremely important in the life cycle of stars. Iron is one of the most atomically stable substances in the universe, and itâs also unique because itâs the first element in the periodic table to require more energy to MAKE it than it gives out from atomic fusion. This is important, because when a star gets older and fuses hydrogen to make helium, helium to make beryllium and all the rest, once it starts fusing atoms to make iron, the star begins to die. So, iron is an element that signals the death of stars, and any element that weighs MORE than iron (atomically speaking) can only be made in supernovas - that is, the explosion that takes place when a really BIG star dies.
In biology, iron is one of the most important elements in mammalian, reptilian and avian blood, because itâs the element that we use in the chemical haemoglobin. This is the chemical in our blood cells that binds to oxygen and keeps us alive. Crustaceans like lobsters donât use iron - they use copper, and instead make haemocyanin, which makes their blood blue! However, just like in stars, iron can mean death for humans as well. If we overdose on iron, we suffer from iron heavy metal poisoning; when we get crushed by a heavy object we can suffer a disease called traumatic rhabdomyolysis or Crush Syndrome, caused by vast amounts of myoglobin (another iron-based compound, found in muscles, which gives them extra oxygen to use) entering our kidneys and killing them, and as a result killing us.
Iron in science is an element of life, death, and of many points in between. But what about its uses in witchcraft?
Witchy Facts about Iron!
Iron is stable. Ironâs stability, both atomically and magickally, makes it a fantastic magickal conductor, and also means that magick doesnât seem to affect iron very much. Enchantments on iron are never as strong as on other metals, and even the best witches will have difficulty making an enchantment or other spell anchor properly. However, this has the advantage that iron doesnât pick up negative magick from background sources, and itâs extremely unlikely that there will be issues with ritual or altar tools made from iron. Keeping your magickal supplies inside an iron or steel box, or a box thatâs been nailed together with iron nails, will prevent them from leaking out and attracting spirits that might cause harm.
Iron is protective. Along with silver and a few other little bits and bobs, negative spirits and fae folk cannot touch iron lest it burn them and cause them pain. Additionally, negative magicks targetted at someone wearing an iron pendant will be attracted into the pendant and then dispelled. This makes it an ideal protective charm for everyday carry or everyday wear. This is why horseshoes are considered lucky - back in Medieval times, when protection against negative spirits and magick was much more widely practiced, poor families would often be unable to afford much iron. However, a horseshoe is made of iron, and comes with holes already cast into it, which allow you to nail one over your door easily, which keeps out harmful spirits, magick, and fae, who might seek to hurt you or your family.
Iron is inconspicuous. Anyone can carry an iron nail after all, and a little piece of iron wrought and twisted into a small pendant is far from a traditional witchâs item. Those secret witches who perhaps do not live with accepting families or within an accepting community or country can find great solace in the use of iron as a protective charm.
Iron is cheap. Iron nails, iron rods and iron knifes are pretty easy to get hold of and relatively quite cheap. Theyâre versatile and not especially likely to draw attention to you - after all, nobodyâs likely to question why someone has a couple of iron nails twisted into a pendant, and if they do question it, why itâs just an artistic display! And of course, easy to replace with $5 worth of string, iron and a hammer.
Iron is ancient. Iron is one of the oldest protective charms out there, right up with salt and sage. Itâs been used for literally thousands of years to protect people against everything from wolves to armies to poltergeists. Thatâs a pretty impressive history!
Iron is practical! The best cookware Iâve ever used has always been my cast iron cookware set, which makes better food than Iâve ever tasted, and itâs very easy to clean. Itâs also extremely hardwearing - I wholly expect to one day be able to pass on my cast iron frying pan and wok to my grandchildren, and it was already been owned by my mother and father before me. Iron knifes are sharper and cut cleaner than almost anything except obsidian, and high-carbon steel (an alloy of iron and carbon) is the best cutting edge known in bushcrafting circles, where all the best knives are made from it
I hope this helps all you lovely witches and magick users out there!

Spirits #1: Sensing and Recognising
In this post, I will give you:
A forewarning.
Ways to recognise when a spirit is around.
Exercises to help you sense them.
Grounding Methods
Herbs for Psychic Powers/Tea recipes
Gems for Psychic awareness/powers
A Forewarning:
Itâs easy to convince yourself that everything is a spirit. Iâve seen a lot of beginners and even more experienced people do so. Thereâs also the placebo effect. Your friend says they saw a spirit and now you start seeing that thing around you. It could be because youâre giving it energy, but it could very well be a type of placebo effect. So be careful. Not everything is a spiritâŚ
⌠and not everything isnât.
Now, here I will be giving out information I have gathered around, however, take it with a pinch of salt and add what you wish to it.
Finally, remember that grounding yourself is also very important. Iâll expand upon that in another post.
Recognise a Spirit:
There are ways to recognise a spirit through all five senses, and for some, even the sixth one.
There are spirits with higher frequencies, âgoodâ spirits, if you will. And some with lower frequencies, âbadâ spirits, as some will call them. I am of the mindset that there are no good or bad spirits, just like there are no good or bad people.
Please note: I am not talking about demons, here.
Spirits with higher or lower frequencies will feel or be sensed differently.
Again, hereâs a strong disclaimer. Not everything is a spirit/ghost. Especially if you suffer with a mental illness, please be cautious.
Sight:
Shadows: Shadows are an easy way for spirits to manifest themselves. Theyâre not fully manifested, but you can see them. Thereâs a difference between shadows and shadow people, youâll immediately feel the change in energy.
Partial Manifestation: Although rarer, spirits can fully manifest parts of themselves, such as eyes, face, hands. Theyâre often a whitish hue or even full colour. These donât last long due to the tremendous energy it takes.
Full Manifestation: A full body manifestation is very rare and doesnât last long, because for a spirit to fully manifest itself, it takes a lot of energy. Some people can help a spirit stay manifested longer, but Iâve seen it take an awful toll on those peopleâs health. I donât suggest you try it.
Peripheral Vision: Seeing people or shadows out of the corner of your eyes.This is the most common way to see a spirit.
Air Distortions: Distortions in the air where thereâs no reason to have any. Can be a sign of a spirit either trying to manifest itself or simply there.
Orbs: Orbs are small balls of light that are usually captured when taking a picture with a flash. Though a lot of them is just the flash catching dust or pollen, there are also âghost orbsâ, or spirit energy. There are even orbs that you can zoom in on and see faces/shapes.Orbs have also been spotted just floating around.
Light Distortion: Sometimes, when a spirit is of a lower frequency, the light in the room seems to be drained, lights can spontaneously go off, candle flames dwindle without a cause and so on. But when a spirit is of a higher frequency, lights seem to shine brighter and candle flames can burn high.
Hearing:
Hearing is the most delicate one since I have, in the past, suffered from insomnia induced psychosis for several months, and know what it is like to hear voices. Please donât assume that the voices you hear are spirits. And even if they are, donât let them tell you to do bad things. They have no power over you unless you give them power, whether they be real or not.
Tinnitus: So this one is rather nebulous, but a few of my psychic friends/acquaintances claim that often, when they hear a sharp ringing in their ears, itâs a spirit attempting to communicate, but either they arenât ready to hear what they have to say, or the spirit isnât capable to getting their message across the veil.
Zaps, Bangs and odd little sounds: Sometimes, a spirit can try and get your attention through odd little noises only you hear, and seemingly come from nowhere.
Footsteps: Footsteps in a room when nobodyâs home, or on the walls or ceiling. Your house is making more noise than usual without any causing.
Tapping: Little knocks at your door or on your wall through which you can even communicate. Sometimes doors slam without wind.<
Buzzing: Your ears may buzz loudly when spirits are around.
Whispers: Hearing whispers when there is no reason to.
Voices: Hearing voices around you when there is no one. This is a delicate subject matter. Donât trust the voices without being 1000% sure. Donât trust the voices if you are currently in a bad mental place (unless itâs trying to cheer you up and help you, in that case, even if itâs a hallucination, at least itâs pretty positive) and donât trust the voices if theyâre telling you to do something bad. Or something that could lead to something bad. However, it is a way for spirits to communicate.
Taste:
Odd Tastes: This is an odd one and I only know two people other than me that have that reaction to spirits, but itâs basically when certain spirits give you tastes in your mouth, such as blood, dirt, sugar, spices and more.
Smell:
Good Smells: A spirit can manifest itself with good smells. Smells that remind you of a deceased loved one or something comforting.
Bad Smells: Just as similarly, some spirits come around with bad smells like rotting flesh or blood.
Other: Sometimes, a smell that has no reason to be there just appears. Like the smell of roast beef in the middle of the night, wafting from your kitchen.
Touch:
A gush of Warm/cool air: You randomly feel a breeze when there shouldnât be one.
A stroke: You feel as though someone is touching you, stroking you, often in a loving way, or sometimes, in a more uncomfortable way. It gives you goosebumps or shivers.
A Blow: A full on blow to your body. This is rare and more often happens in dream/while you sleep, while real life physical consequences.
Marks: Odd marks on your body. For example, I had a hand shaped mark on my inner thigh, in a way my hands couldnât have done it, it was outlined with a white line, but was not a scratch. Donât assume every bump/scratch is a spirit.
Hands: You feel someone touching you. Not really like a stroke, just a hand on your shoulder, or around your throat, or on your cheek. Sometimes a hand holding yourself.
Change in Air pressure: The air around you feels lighter, or heavier, depending on the vibrations.
Pressure on Chest: a very common one Iâve heard is the feeling someone or something sitting on your chest, most of the time, in a very oppressive way.
Electric Shocks: Some people, like myself, feel electric shocks down our spines when close to spirits.
Skin: Your skin crawls, or goosebumps suddenly erupt for no reason, you feel dirty.
ESP:
Extra sensory perception, possibly the most common way to feel a spirit.
Anxiety: Unexplained anxiety, stress, fear, panic attacks, depression and such.
Joy: Euphoria, happiness, confidence, comfort, compassion, good emotions that come out of nowhere.
Empathy: Suddenly feeling emotions that arenât yours when you, yourself arenât an empath.
Paranoia: Sudden feelings of being watched, being in danger/vulnerable, feeling youâre not alone.
Intuition: Sudden increase in intuition, like someone is telling you something.
Dread: Your stomach drops,a feeling of dread, tight throat, unexplained sadness.
Dizziness: Dizziness, nausea, motion sickness, you just feel queasy and wrong.
Become more Sensitive:
I donât know if someone who isnât naturally sensitive to spirits can become it, though they probably can, I wouldnât know the methods. So here, Iâm going to list ways of increasing already existing sensitivity.
Always Start by Grounding: Grounding is incredibly important. Everyone has their method. Mine is to walk barefoot in the earth or to just stand up and feel my feet. You can meditate, use crystals and so on. Iâll list more grounding methods later.
Meditate: Meditation is an effective way of becoming more receptive to subtle things around you. Everyone has their techniques, but I like doing Anapana before expanding into consciousness projection.
Just get yourself into a spiritual state: May it be through music, walking in the woods, cooking, anything that gets you spiritual, itâll increase your sensitivity.
Herbal Infusion: Make a herbal tea that favours psychic powers. Iâll give recipes later.
Open your Third Eye: Everyone has their method, but the third eye is a very effective way of doing so.
Work with Crystals: Iâll give a list of crystals later.
Get Spiritâs Attention: Again, many methods that I will list later, but you can find your own.
Channel: Play a good game of Ouija, or do some automatic writing, maybe use your pendulum or any methods of channeling you use. It can get you going.
There are many other methods. Find your own!
Grounding:
Walk: Take a long walk in nature, barefooted preferably, and just feel the earth beneath your feet.
Trees: Hug trees, meditate under trees, just be around trees, imagine yourself rooting yourself in the earth. Can work with house plants, just dig your hands into the earth and feeling your energy going deep.
Dance: Dance around, stomp your feet, rock the world, just get in touch with your physical body.
Meditate: Meditate. Just concentrate in your breath, your body. Then, you can try and expand your consciousness, but instead of reach up, go down, into the earth.
Massage: Massage yourself or get someone to massage you. Nothing airy. A nice, deep massage. Rub your limbs and pat yourself down. Youâre here, in your body.
Exercise: Do physical exercise. Yoga in particular (I donât recommend Kundalini or westernised Yoga Pilates/etc, but actual Indian yoga. Something grounding like standing poses, especially Tadasana/Mountain Pose.) and Qi Gong
Animals: Spend time stroking your dog, cat, horse, earth animal (not birds, or aquatic animals)
Earth Spirit: Ask earth spirits, such as trolls, gnomes and others to help you be grounded.

Psychic Protection:
Labradorite: Good for protection against negative energies and very powerful psychic protection.
Tigerâs Eye: Also amazing to keep you safe from negativity, it helps mostly with more human bad energies. Still very good.
Black Tourmaline: Black tourmaline helps ground you and keeps you incredibly safe from negativity. Like a pillar. My personal choice.
Emerald: Emerald is incredibly powerful psychic tool and keeps you safe from negative energies.
Most of the crystals mentioned above are really good for protection too.
Most black stones are good for grounding/protection/Absorption of negative energies, such as: Apache tears, Black tourmaline, obsidians and more.
Finally, a disclaimer. I donât know everything. I may have made some mistakes. Please take care of yourself when working with the subtle and please donât force yourself into doing something that frightens you or that you donât feel ready to do. If you are mentally unstable, first look into healing yourself before going into spirit communication, since spirits can trick you, just like humans.
Please take care, but donât be afraid either since fear is food for spirits with lower vibrations.
A monumental post, thank you!
Drown In You Guilt Curse
Intention
This is not a little curse to do on someone who pissed you off this is a curse for someone close to you who had catastrophic effects on your life. someone who hurt you in so many ways that you will never be the same again. This curse is to project the suffering they caused you back onto them , it is fueled by anger and hate. In a sense this is a guilt curse .This curse is based in your own pain and suffering so it can not be sent back on you if the person also practices magick. They canât curse you with pain you already know.
What You NeedÂ
A poppet/doll made to look like the intended target.
A container or jar larger then the poppet/doll
Another container/jar preferably something biodegradable this container will need to be buried at some point)
Black paint or food coloring
A picture of the target , works better if its a picture of them before everything went bad. A picture of them when you still considered them a friend/whatever they were to you
A fire safe dishÂ
Lighter or matches
Red chalk/paint (Preferably something easily washed away)
A candle that is a color or scent that makes you happy. Or just use pink/white as a default.Â
Steps
Make your poppet. Make it as close to the personâs current appearance as you can. Button eyes the color of their eyes, yarn the color of their hair, cloth the color of their skin, ect ect . Put it to the side
Fill your first container with water and pour in some black paint/food color to tint the water black. Put this to the side
On your space or a piece of paper on your space draw/paint in red sigils for guilt, pain, suffering, whatever you feel matches your intention.
 Take the picture and start to rip it into smaller and smaller pieces. With each rip say things like âYou will feel the pain you made me feelâ âyou will suffer as I have suffered â âthere will be no forgiveness for your actionsâ  âI will never recognize you as a friendâ âI will not look back and remember what you were,what we wereâ and so on and so forth, basically saying anything that you feel applies to the situation and the pain they caused you until you canât rip the picture anymore. Most of this process is to erase the memories that make you want them back, the memories that make you miss what you had and thatâs why you use a picture from before everything changed
During the picture ripening process allow your anger, hate, resentment, and bitterness to build up and give you power and energy.
Once youâve finished ripping up the picture light the remains on fire, this might take a few tries. Wait until the fire builds up and is at its peak.
Take the poppet/doll you made hold itâs face far enough above the fire so that itâs not burning yet and say anything along the lines of âi will never recognize any good in you, there will be no recognition or forgiveness because the pain you caused me outways the goodâ or anything you feel applies. Then lower the poppet/dolls face into the flames burning away your positive recognition. You will never recognize them as a friend/lover/whatever. Be careful about this part, donât brn yourself or set your house on fire.
Lift the doll/poppets face from the fire and slowly sink the entire doll/poppet into the container of black water. Saying âMay you drown in your guilt, drown in my painâ Toss the burnt pictures remains in the water was well . Let it sit in this container for as long as you feel necessary
Transfer the doll and most of the water to the second container (leaving some water in the first container and seal the lid. Make sure there is enough water in the container to leak out and wash away your sigils. Charging and activating them. If there isnât drip a little of the water on them yourself.
Place your hands on either side of the container or hold it in your hands. Begin to recall all the ways this person hurt you. With each memory visualize a black thread/rope/chain leaving your body and wrapping itself tightly around the container. Do this until your run out of negative memories.
Seal the contained with wax from the pink/white/what ever represents happiness to you candle. This is to seal the pain and hate they have caused in you with happiness. If the wax starts to char/get ash in it and the wax begins to turn black/grey itâs fine because this can represent your happiness being their misery.Â
Barry the container and pour the rest of the water from the first container on top of the spot. finally say âthis curse is final and can not be brokenâ It wonât make sure it will absolutely never be broken but it might help.
